Chapter Ninety-Six: The Strange Ashina
Chapter Ninety-Six
"Let's sit down and rest first, it should be safe in here anyway."
Pillar stride onto the wooden boat and sit down directly, the wooden escape can not only be used for battle, but a certain captain of the big eyes in later generations told us that it can be used for many other purposes.
"Hmm!"
Mito jumped off the back of the Thousand Hands Deed with a new look, but she landed on the wooden boat with great lightness.
And the Thousand Hands Deed obviously hadn't recovered from the shock, because the bloodline of the Thousand Hands Clan had never heard of such a genetic power.
"Don't think about it, just ask the patriarch directly when you go back." The pillars pulled the Thousand Hands onto the wooden boat.
He sealed again, using the Shadow Clone technique to summon two clones.
The clone picked up two handfuls of wood pulp from the wooden skimp between the pillars in advance, and then stood on the left and right sides of the middle of the wooden boat, and began to paddle to propel the hull forward.
Then he lay down directly on the wooden boat, holding his head with his hands and staring at the blue sky.
"It's finally time to take a break!"
Mito was also overjoyed, shouting with joy, and she casually lay down beside the pillars, closing her eyes, and the expression on her delicate little face was soothing.
Zhuma looked sideways at the girl beside him who was closing her eyes and recuperating, and said with some dissatisfaction: "There is such a big place, can you lie away from me, isn't it too crowded?" ”
Actually, of course, this is not a real reason, the pillars are just not used to being so close to any of the opposite sex, that's all.
Maybe he's hypocritical, although he used to think that Mito was very similar to another person, but because of this, it's easy for Pillar to think of her, and then the feeling of missing is uncomfortable.
Mito opened her eyes when she heard this, she turned her face sideways to look at the pillars, and suddenly chuckled inexplicably, "Are you shy?" ”
As she spoke, she began to move closer to the pillars.
"What!" The pillar jumped up in fright.
"It's okay." Mito smiled, then stretched out his arms even more wantonly.
Looking at Mito, the pillars were speechless for a while, so he had to go back and lie down, anyway, he deliberately made this wooden ship very large when he made it, even if it was not spacious enough, the wooden ship could be made bigger at any time.
The thousand hands next to him were silent, as a ninja all year round, whether it was on a mission or when he usually stayed in the clan, his heart had long been used to tightening a string.
But at this time, perhaps because of the infection between the pillars and Mito, his tense heart for many years was gradually relaxed, and then he sat on the side of the wooden boat, quietly watching the endless blue sea in front of him.
That's how the wooden boat floats on the surface of the sea, moving slowly.
Time passed, and after getting enough rest, the physical strength and chakra of the three people in the column also recovered.
Mito fell asleep.
In her sleep, she suddenly felt a hint of warmth.
The girl slowly opened her eyes, the dim light lapping against her soft cheeks, and Mito immediately sat up, and then saw the pillars sitting in the bow of the boat.
She looked forward along the line of sight between the pillars, and saw that in the distance at sea level, the evening sun seemed to be gradually sinking to the bottom of the sea, although this was only a visual illusion.
But because of this, the cold sea air seems to have some temperature.
The pillars gazed at the sun that radiated a dim yellow light, and his heart was full of mixed emotions.
When the tension in the body and heart is completely relaxed, some memories will unconsciously come to mind.
To be honest, people have to play a lot of roles in this life, and the process will be very difficult.
The best role is to be a child, but the most incompetent person for most people is also a child.
As a traverser, far away from his hometown, the most missed by the pillar is not his parents.
"You're losing all the faces of the traversers."
Pillar couldn't help laughing at himself, saying that memories and feelings would fade over time, but personal experience told him that it didn't seem to be exactly the case.
"You're awake."
But the only thing he's learned over the years is to restrain his mind in time and look sideways at Mito.
"Hmm."
Mito answered, then slowly walked over to the pillar and sat down, reaching out and patting him on the shoulder.
"Are you homesick?"
"Well, sort of."
Pillar nodded, I have to say that sometimes women's innate intuition is something that has no scientific basis, but it is unusually accurate.
"Me too."
Mito smiled lightly: "Since I was a child, this is the first time I have gone out of the door so far. ”
"Thank you really for this mission, I'm sorry for putting you in danger." Pillar said sincerely that there is no doubt about the role played by Mito in this mission.
"You're welcome, you've helped our clan too." Mito was smiling quite happily and seemed to be in a very good mood.
"The nasty Kaguya clan shouldn't be able to trouble us again anytime soon."
Of the three, Mito's perception was the most keen, and she clearly felt how many Kaguya clansmen's chakra fluctuations were annihilated in the explosion of the three-tailed beast jade,
With such heavy casualties, the Kaguya clan was greatly damaged, and it was impossible to do anything to the ninja clan outside of the Water Country for at least a dozen years.
In this regard, Mito felt that the risks taken in the mission were worth it.
"Hmm—" was silent between the pillars.
Suddenly, Mito stretched out his hand in front of him, and Ying Ying smiled, "It's a pleasure to work together." ”
Pillar was stunned, and then shook her head: "Happy cooperation." ”
Then he immediately let go of his hand.
Then the pillar changed his words and said, "It's too slow to rush like this, since you're homesick, let's send you home quickly." ”
He looked at the Thousand Hands Deed again.
The speed of drifting on the sea by wooden boats is indeed too low, so the latter has no opinion.
"Good!"
Mito nodded happily, too, because she thought that Tsuruma seemed to be in a bad mood, and it should be due to homesickness.
So the three of them got off the wooden boat and swept in the direction of the Vortex Country.
Without the maintenance of the columns, the wooden ship gradually disintegrated and sank in the sea.
Four days later.
Tsuruma and his party arrived at Uzumaki Village, and even though the mission had been completed, it was still necessary for Tsuruma and Senju to take Uzumaki Ashina and express their gratitude for the assistance he had sent to Mito this time.
"Looks like you're all safe."
Uzumaki Ashina smiled kindly, and he didn't ask Tsuruma and the others if the task had been successfully completed.
"This time, I'm really grateful for the help of the Uzumaki clan." The Thousand Hands Deed and the Pillar both bowed their heads slightly and said respectfully.
"The Vortex and the Thousand Hands Clan are originally distant relatives, and there is also an alliance relationship, so you don't need to be so polite." Uzumaki Ashina is a person who doesn't have much of a patriarchal frame, but is more like a reasonable elder.
He looked at the pillar with a smile and said, "This time, you shouldn't be in a hurry, rest for a night and then set off." ”
Of course, there is no reason for the column to refuse.
"Good!"
So he nodded in agreement.
Uzumaki Ashina looked at Mito and said, "Then you can take the pillar and take a good walk around the village." ”
"Yes!"
Mito answered with joy.
"Thank you."
Zhu Jian also said again, but at this moment his brows were slightly furrowed.
Because from just now, Tsuruma had noticed that Uzumaki Ashina seemed to be staring at him all the time.
And there seems to be something else in that smile?
It's kind of weird...
