Chapter 131: Kato Break
And although Lei Luo is quite fierce by nature, his disguise ability is undoubtedly passable.
In order to achieve his goal, Lei Luo didn't mind pretending to be in front of Kato's break to gain a wave of favor from the other party so that the next negotiations would go smoothly.
Coupled with Lei Luo's youthful appearance and immature green face that has not yet completely faded, it is easy to confuse others and make people who are not familiar with him mistake him for a teenager who does not understand the world.
“…… Yu Yin is now vigorously building fortifications, making it clear that the turtle can't shrink, and Elder Menyan doesn't seem to have the intention of attacking, alas......"
A trace of sorrow flashed in Kato's eyes, and he sighed: "I really don't know when this war will end." ”
"I wish the war was over sooner so I could go home and see my sister as soon as possible."
Since the three people here are all elite ninjas in Konoha and two of them are even more ambitious, it is impossible for the parents to gossip in the chat.
So the topic, as a matter of course, unconsciously came to the war.
Lei Luo twisted his body slightly uncomfortably, and coughed: "I guess I still have to fight, after all, Sha Yin is not easy to deal with." ”
Kato was about to say something, but unexpectedly, Orochimaru spoke first: "It's not just Sha Yin, I heard that Iwakuin just made a truce with Wu Yin a while ago, and recently he has stepped up his efforts against us Konoha again. ”
"It should be a matter of time before war is officially declared." Orochimaru spoke, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which was quite a bit of a good show.
"It's up to whoever can't help it first."
"Iwakure? Is this news accurate? Kato's broken news channel was obviously not as wide as Orochimaru, and when he heard this, he hurriedly turned his head to look at the latter, his tone slightly anxious.
Orochimaru smiled, "It's conclusive." ”
Kato didn't speak for a while, just subconsciously picked up the teacup again, but this time he didn't rush to put it to his mouth, but just bowed his head and remained silent, as if thinking about something.
It's just that the slightly trembling hands reveal that Kato Broken's heart is not calm.
The change in the other party was so obvious that it was difficult for Lei Luo not to notice it, so he quickly asked Kato Break, "Break, what's wrong with you?" ”
Lei Luo's sudden question suddenly woke Kato up, and the teacup in his hand inadvertently fell to the ground, and it fell to pieces with a click.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Kato quickly bent down when he saw this, trying to pick up the scattered ceramic shards, or perhaps, he just didn't want the other two to see his extremely ugly face.
Lei Luo and Orochimaru glanced at each other, but seeing that the latter was also confused, he had no choice but to comfort Kato with a warm voice and said, "It's okay, it's just a cup." ”
Perhaps it was the indifferent emotion in Lei Luo's tone that was smoothly conveyed to Kato Tsuru, who didn't insist and stepped forward from under the table.
"Haha......"
Smiling awkwardly, Kato scratched his head subconsciously, seeing that Lei Luo and Orochimaru were both looking at him with a puzzled expression.
He knew that he wouldn't be able to do it without an explanation.
There's nothing you can't say.
After a while, when his mind calmed down, Kato sighed slightly, and then first spoke to Lei Luo, expressing apologies: "I'm sorry for making you laugh." ”
"I'll compensate for the damaged tea set later."
Lei Luo waved his hand indifferently, and then asked in an inquiring tone, "I see that you looked very wrong just now, do you mind telling me your story?" ”
"If there's anything going on, please let me know, maybe I can help."
After speaking, Lei Luo looked at Kato with an extremely "sincere" gaze, which was like a "selfless" virgin, eager to save the suffering of the world.
Lei Luo is trying to "move" Kato Judgment and make the other party let down his guard, as for whether Kato Judgment will accept his "kindness" and "voluntarily" make some kind of return, I don't know.
However, Lei Luo will try his best to make this "deal" go ahead, and ultimately save a share of S-rank ninjutsu.
After all, whether it is Orochimaru or Kato Broken, how do you look at their "money" and how it is better than that of Tuanzang.
The reason why he has this idea is because Lei Luo has already tasted the sweetness of Orochimaru, so he frequently finds people to "trade", trying to obtain "resources" with the highest efficiency.
How much guessed the big snake pill that Lei Luo was thinking, after hearing this sentence, the corners of his mouth grinned inadvertently, and he knew that the meat was coming.
Maybe he was infected by Lei Luo's "sincerity", or maybe he was going to vent the boredom in his chest, Kato didn't hide anything, and told the truth directly:
"That's right...... My younger sister, she is 20 years old, she has just gotten married, and she has a husband who loves her very much. ”
"She is a shinobi, and her usual task is to patrol around the village, which is very normal and ...... Safe. ”
Speaking of this, Kato paused for a moment, and said with a slightly ugly face: "But there is a premise for this, that is, the war will not continue to expand. ”
"Right now, the forces on all fronts are a little tight, and if the village goes to war with Iwakure again...... My sister, I guess she can't escape the forced drafting. ”
Kato smiled bitterly, and said slowly in a low tone:
"Even though I'm fighting for the village, I, as an older brother, still don't want to see her go to the battlefield."
After speaking, Kato fell into silence for a long time, and the look on his face flashed with guilt for a while, and unwillingness for a while, and the taste was not enough for outsiders.
His dream is to become the Hokage, and the Hokage's duty is to do everything to protect the village, even if he sacrifices a lot, without a trace of regret.
But at this moment, in the face of inseparable family affection, Kato is difficult to choose.
He just didn't want to let his only remaining relative in this world encounter any more dangerous conditions and eventually lose his life.
For an ordinary ninja, this kind of selfishness could not be more normal.
But for Kato, who aspires to become the Hokage, at this moment, his selfishness is so dazzling, as if he is silently mocking his dream:
You thought you were ready to come to your senses, but this realization is so vulnerable.
Is you really qualified to be the Hokage?
Although Lei Luo didn't know the complex emotions hidden in Kato's heart, he understood the other party's request.
"If I just don't want your sister to go to war, I might be able to find a way." A smile tugged at the corner of Lei Luo's mouth, as if he had foreseen the success of the transaction.
It's just a middle ninja, Lei Luo believes that as long as he talks to Tuan Zang, with the power of the other party, it will definitely not be difficult to do this little thing.
And the price he Lei Luo paid for this will definitely be less than going through the normal "process", and it can even be said that it is not too much.
But before he could continue, Kato raised his hand sharply and stopped Lei Luo's words.
"My sister is ......" Kato's eyes were slightly red, but his gaze suddenly became extremely determined, as if he had made some kind of realization.
"I shouldn't want to, I, as an older brother, wantonly interfere in her life, after all, ......"
Kato Tsuru raised his head slightly, as if remembering something, and whispered, "From the day she became a ninja, she was ready to give her life for the village. ”
"Whether it's taking advantage of identity, power, or going through the back door...... I think that as long as I did that, it would be an insult to her consciousness. ”
A touch of bitterness crossed the corner of Kato's broken mouth, but in an instant, he put away his weak face and said sonorously:
"I don't want to be looked down upon by her, and I don't want to betray my dreams and become an unqualified Hokage in the future!"
"If you want to be a Hokage who is recognized by everyone, being fair is the minimum attitude."
"For this reason, no matter how much pain I endure, I will definitely move in this direction and die without regrets!"
