Chapter Eighty-Seven: A Chance Encounter
"Chiba, I'm going to eat that. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Xiao Nan pointed to a ball stall on the street with great interest.
"Okay, I'll buy it. ”
Soon, Chiba bought a few bunches of balls and fed them to Xiao Nan one by one.
Xiao Nan's eyes suddenly narrowed into crescent moons: "Woo, it's delicious." ”
Watching Chiba and Konan sprinkle dog food all the way, Yahiko and Nagato were a little helpless.
Is it really okay for you to show affection like this...
Today is the first day that Chiba and his party have come to the capital of the country of craftsmen.
Before they get down to business, the first thing they have to do is go shopping.
That's right, it's shopping.
Compared to the Land of Rain, the strength of the Land of Craftsmen is not comparable at all, but as a semi-commercial country, it is still much more prosperous.
Especially here, the national capital, which is the center of commerce, happens to be in a certain festival, and it is even more lively.
For a while, Chiba and they happily played, which was a rare vacation for themselves.
After all, they were just a group of twelve or thirteen-year-old teenagers and girls, and they couldn't resist this kind of thing at all.
And just when the group was frolicking and playing something, Chiba saw a figure on the corner that made him a little puzzled.
As far as the eye could see, I saw a red-haired teenager wandering the street expressionlessly.
Finally, the boy stopped in front of a stall on the side of the street that threw snares.
A moment later, the stall owner's plea for mercy rang out.
"This lord, you are a ninja, please raise your hand, we are a small business..."
I saw that the young man was hit every time, forcing the stall owner to kneel.
"Hmm..."
The young man was slightly stunned, and then took out a handful of money.
"Give me everything I have circled. ”
And at this moment, the young man seemed to be aware of Chiba's prying eyes, and looked back expressionlessly, with a hint of exploration and oppression in his eyes.
This time, Chiba finally basically determined the identity of the person who came.
Originally, Chiba was still a little uncertain, but under the powerful momentum of this young man, or the aura that came with the condensation of powerful spiritual power, Chiba finally had a guess.
At this age, with such momentum and such appearance, there should be no one else except the scorpion.
At this moment, Chiba suddenly felt a little interesting.
He had never imagined that he would meet any of the future core members of the Akatsuki Organization at this time, especially in this way.
Who would have thought that the scorpion, which is supposed to kill without blinking, would also come to play this kind of game?
But it really deduces that the scorpion, like Nagato, was thirty-five years old when he died, and the time of their death was not far apart.
In this case, some of them should be about the same age as them, at most a little older.
At this age, it's not impossible to have the same interest as them and want to go shopping.
Itachi is such a young and old person, when he meets his favorite three-color ball, isn't his face irresistible?
Or maybe it's too boring and just hanging out.
It's just that no matter what, this kind of thing is quite happy.
The scorpion looked at Chiba's inexplicable gaze with some doubts, but it was only for a moment, and he put this doubt behind him again and continued to walk around his street.
"What's wrong, Chiba?"
Yahiko next to him followed Chiba's gaze, but he didn't find anything abnormal.
Chiba smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing, it's just that I saw an interesting person." ”
Soon, Chiba and they continued to play with different natures.
It wasn't until a long time later that Chiba and the others saw the scorpion again in front of a stall.
I saw that the scorpion was silent in front of a small game booth that required the cooperation of two people.
It's probably a small game where two people smash the wooden hammer at the same time, and the difference in strength is not much to receive the prize.
Although the scorpion didn't speak, and the expression on his face was still indifferent, Chiba could probably feel the scorpion's depression.
In this place where everyone is in and out of pairs and there are groups of friends, he is probably the only one who is lonely.
Following the scorpion's gaze, Chiba could see a pair of parents coaxing a crying child.
Inexplicably, Chiba suddenly had a hint of feeling.
"Hey, do you want to come along?"
"Huh?"
Soon, Chiba and Scorpion won some of the mini-game prizes that required two people to use the same force to win under their superb control.
Then, Chiba and a few people brought scorpions to stroll around together.
In this regard, although the scorpion was a little puzzled, it did not resist.
The strong strength gave him the confidence not to worry about being plotted by others.
Several people tacitly didn't ask for any more information about each other, and simply walked together on the street.
There is a clear distance between them, but they do act together.
Occasionally, when encountering a two-player cooperative game, Chiba will also invite the scorpion with great interest.
For such a scorpion, Chiba is indeed a little curious.
Unconsciously, Chiba guessed the current strength of the scorpion.
The scorpion itself has not yet been transformed into a human puppet, nor has it started with the third generation of Wind Shadow, and it should not have developed secret techniques such as the Hundred Machine Drill and those scrolls.
At this moment, he should be an elite ninja at most, but this can't be said...
After a while, Chiba gave up guessing, this time may not be suitable for guessing this, and even if it does, I'm afraid it doesn't make any sense.
For a long time, it wasn't until it was close to evening that Chiba said goodbye to the scorpion.
"Goodbye, had a great day. ”
The scorpion looked at the few people in silence, and suddenly didn't know what to say.
Chiba suddenly smiled: "I have a hunch, maybe we will meet again in the future, maybe the next time we meet, maybe we will be friends." ”
No one knows what kind of energy the young man in front of him contains, and it won't be long before he kills three generations of Kazekage, triggering the third ninja war that will sweep the entire world.
He will become a traitor, maybe he will have a record of slaughtering a country, or he will be found out by them one day and dragged into the Akatsuki organization...
It's just that this is all in the future, and for now, they can only be passers-by who meet in Pingshui.
It's no different from the rest of the people on the street who occasionally meet at the festival and play together for a while and then separate.
It wasn't until he saw that Chiba and them were all gone, that the scorpion really understood that Chiba and they really didn't have any plans for him.
Inexplicably, the scorpion, which had been expressionless, showed a faint smile.
"Interesting..."
