Chapter 29: Hostage Exchange
"Tell me, little ghost, tell me everything you know. With the sound of punches and kicks, one of the ninjas in charge of interrogating Naruto said with a slightly crazy grin, "Then you will be spared the pain of this flesh." ”
However, the little imp in front of him didn't seem to hear his words at all, and he didn't react to it, completely feeling ignored, he gritted his teeth and gurgled and vented his anger on Naruto's body and face.
Seeing that his companion didn't seem to have any intention of stopping, another ninja who was also in charge of the interrogation hurriedly grabbed his companion's hand and persuaded him to calm down: "Stop, No. 13, you will beat him to death like this!"
"So what!" No. 13, who had already lost his mind, looked at his companion with red eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "If he dares to ignore me, then he will pay for it! ”
Number 12 grabbed the arm that Number 13 wanted to pull back, and shouted at him, "Have you forgotten what Number 2 said?"
Recalling No. 2's style, No. 13 hit a spirit, instantly sobered up, and a little regretted that he had taken too hard, and then this regret was replaced by anxiety, and said in annoyance: "Then what should we do?" Two hours, two hours, don't say any useful information, this little ghost hasn't even opened his mouth once, do you think No. 2 will let us go if he knows about it?"
"This ......" No. 13's problem is indeed difficult on the 12th, for two hours, no matter how the little ghost in front of him lures, coercions, and beats him, he just didn't say a word, and his eyes just stared blankly ahead, as if his soul had been drained, and only a body remained here. If you say it, I'm afraid that no one will believe it, thinking of No. 2's style, if you let him know that he and others can't even deal with a little ghost, I'm afraid there won't be good fruit for him to eat.
Two hours, whether long or short, is endless torture except for the first ten minutes of coercion and temptation. Although the physique of the Vortex clan and the chakra of the Nine-Tails can make Naruto's injuries heal quickly, they are not immune to physical pain, and the strong recovery power is a burden for Naruto now. The old wound was not yet healed, and the new whip turned the tender flesh of the new one again, making the wound even more erosive, and the strength of his mental power made Naruto's perception more acute than that of ordinary people, but now it turned into a more intense pain. The continuous torture and punishment made Naruto physically and mentally exhausted, but he couldn't pass out because his energy was not exhausted, and he could only clearly feel the pain in his body again and again.
"I ...... What a fool. Naruto, who didn't know why he wanted to cover the girl, said to himself.
When Naruto walked straight to the room he was in, he knew that the other party's target was most likely a girl, and even if it wasn't, it had a lot to do with the girl. Before the other party entered the door, Naruto had already changed into a girl's appearance for the first time, and made the appearance that he had just woken up and was about to get dressed. I don't know if it was fortunate or unfortunate, the other party did not notice the abnormality, the 'girl' was successfully captured by the other party, and the other party was overjoyed and sent a signal to retreat, so that everyone on the ship could get a chance to breathe.
By now, they're probably safe......
Knowing that no one will care about themselves, knowing that no one will come to save them, knowing that coming to this is a dead end, I still do that, what is the reason?
No one will come to save themselves......
He laughed at his own stupidity and looked ahead with empty eyes.
Sure enough, I'm a fool......
The pain from his body had begun to numb, his consciousness began to blur, and even thinking became difficult, and the pictures from the past began to play back one by one in front of his eyes, making Naruto feel like he was looking at a marquee.
Finally, is it over......
Darkness overshadowed his vision, and his consciousness finally left his body, and Naruto's head hung limply......
"Hey, he's not dead, is he?" Seeing Naruto's lowered head, No. 12, who was facing Naruto, patted No. 13 in a bit of a panic and asked him to hurry over and take a look.
No. 13 was also a little panicked, in case he really accidentally killed this kid, I was afraid that it would be difficult to explain to No. 2, so he hurriedly went over to probe his breathing. Seeing that Naruto's breathing was weak, it hadn't stopped, he breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking of the hatefulness of this little ghost, No. 13 spit again: "It's okay, I can't die yet." Damn, why should we worry about the life and death of this little ghost. ”
Seeing that the little ghost was not dead, No. 12 was also relieved, and said: "It's good that he is not dead, I'll go get some medicine, I'll smear it on him later, and I'll talk about torture later." ”
The little ghost in front of him not only didn't give himself face at all, but he also had to worry about his life and death, which made No. 13 feel very unpleasant, and angrily pulled a stool and sat down, waved his hand at No. 12 and said, "Go, go, I'll rest." ”
No. 12 looked at his companion and sighed, and dissatisfaction with No. 2's decision also rose in his heart, but Jiwei, who was taken on No. 2, opened his mouth but didn't say anything, turned around and went out to find some medicine.
Naruto had a long dream, in which the girl truly became his sister and lived in the same house with him, telling him every day. Ying became her sister, happy and carefree, showing her innocence. By his side, he was accompanied by the figure that he had never forgotten, looking at him and smiling.
In the distance, the three generations still have an overworked expression, and finally they are busy for the village, and the young Kakashi is gradually maturing and completing his tasks brilliantly, and the tired self of the world takes the person he cherishes the most to escape the world and escape in the forest.
But it is a dream after all, a dream, and it will be when you wake up. The icy liquid splashed on Naruto's face, pulling Naruto back from his sleep.
The cold, salty sea breeze blew on his face, causing Naruto to gradually come to his senses, and the sounds around him began to come to his ears, and for some reason there seemed to be a lot of people gathered around him.
"Well, now you can hand over the scroll with peace of mind!" a powerful voice echoed across the sea, causing Naruto to begin to take a look at what was happening in front of him.
The storm that had been raging for a long time had subsided at some point, and the sea that had returned to calm was covered in a thick fog that made it impossible for Naruto to see the distant scene at all. Although the visual range is short, it is enough for Naruto. In Naruto's field of vision, a looming transoceanic ship was like a sharp sword, breaking through the fog and heading straight for Naruto's ship.
"Stop!" After getting some distance closer, a female voice on the boat gave the order to turn right.
Looking at the transoceanic ship that was no longer in front of him, No. 1 shouted unhappily, "What do you mean?"
The girl stood at the bow of the boat, facing No. 1 from afar, and also replied in a loud voice: "The scroll is in my hand, if you want it, you can send someone to get it." ”
Naruto looked at the girl who appeared here in disbelief and muttered, "Why, why ......"
It's just that his voice is too small to reach the ears of others, and his questions naturally go unanswered.
"What are you kidding!" No. 1 said disdainfully: "I brought it to you, and I will show you what you want to see, so little by inch!"
The girl looked at No. 1 without showing weakness, and looked at him and said, "How do I know if you will keep your promise after I hand over the scroll to you!
Regarding the girl's rigid attitude, No. 1 and No. 2 glanced at each other, both of them felt difficult for the girl who didn't eat oil and salt, and finally decided to agree to the girl's deal, after all, their fundamental purpose was still the scroll.
No. 1 nodded at No. 6 with his chin, and No. 6, though reluctant, knowing that the person who went to pick up the scroll was very risky, did not dare to disobey No. 1's order, so he had to jump off the ship and walk towards the transoceanic ship.
Under the gaze of both sides, No. 6 moved step by step to the feet of the transoceanic ship, looking at the tall transoceanic ship, No. 6 felt as if the giant thing in front of him would turn into a man-devouring giant beast at any time and swallow itself.
Swallowing the saliva secreted in his mouth, No. 6 kicked violently and jumped onto the giant ship. Under the gaze of both sides, No. 6 came to the girl, spread his palm and said, "What about the scroll." ”
At the same time, No. 1 and No. 2 on Naruto's ship were also closely watching the situation over there, not caring about the life and death of No. 6, but the capture of the scroll was everyone's common goal.
Time passed very slowly, every minute and every second was infinitely extended, the silence that should not have appeared appeared in the piles of people on both sides, even the sound of breathing was deliberately suppressed, and the silence of the sea made No. 6, who was trapped in the enemy camp, feel tormented, and before he knew it, sweat had soaked his face towel.
The girl hesitated for a moment, looked at Naruto who had fallen into the hands of the enemy, and unwillingly took out a scroll from her arms.
Seeing the girl hand the scroll into her hands, No. 6 and the others watching from a distance breathed a sigh of relief, but everyone knew that the matter was not over yet, and the next thing was the main play.
No. 6 slowly pulled open the scroll in his hand, his eyes kept wandering between the scroll and the girl, seeing that the girl's expression was no different, and finally he gritted his teeth and opened the scroll in his hand completely after he couldn't bear the pressure.
"It's ......!"
Accompanied by the exclamation of No. 6, in the shocked eyes of both sides, a puff of white smoke came out of the scroll with a 'bang'.
