Chapter 402: Origin
That was probably a year ago, before I met Yahiko......
As a war orphan in Rain Hidden Village, she and several other children about her age join a group of Rain Hidden Ninjas in an operation known as the "Great Retreat".
Originally, everything was going well, Xiao Nan thought that he would arrive in Rain Hidden Village, become a rain ninja after receiving a period of ninja training, and fight for his country in the future.
Then, as they passed through a forest, they encountered a roadblocker:
It was a man in a mask and a black robe.
As soon as the other party appeared, he asked, "Are you all ninjas from Yuyin Village?" ”
As for when and how the other party appeared, no one knows.
The midday sun cast on the leaves, and the shadows reflected on the ground seemed to merge with the black-robed man.
It's like a ghost, and it's chilling.
However, Xiao Nan didn't feel too scared at that time, just because judging from her voice, she felt that the man in the black robe should still be very young.
At the very least, it should be much smaller than their Shangnin leader.
That is to say, Xiao Nan thought at that time:
Regardless of whether the black-robed man in front of him was an enemy or not, and whether he had malicious intentions towards them, the leader of the team should be able to deal with it.
The reason why he has this kind of confidence is because Xiao Nan once saw their team leader Shangnin make a move.
That kind of speed, that kind of power, and that variety of gorgeous powerful ninjutsu were completely beyond the imagination of Xiao Nan, who was only five or six years old at the time.
It was as if the door to a new world had opened for her.
It seems that she has refreshed her perception of ninjas.
In other words, Xiao Nan was sure that he and the others were safe.
After a while, the negotiation between the black-robed man and the ninja leader seemed to be over, and the other party pulled out the ninja knife, apparently planning to do it.
And then what happened...... seems to be forever engraved in the depths of Xiao Nan's mind, even now, the scene at that moment is still vivid:
At that time, Xiao Nan only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and the black shadow flashed to the side of their Shangnin leader, and casually put his hand on the latter's shoulder.
That feeling is like the distance of more than ten meters between the two, as if it didn't exist.
Then, before everyone could exclaim, an explosive loud bang followed, muffling out all the noise.
For a while, the wind rolled up, sand and gravel flew, and smoke and dust filled the field.
The scene in the field of vision instantly became blurred.
Then, countless swords of light suddenly appeared in the smoke and dust at the same time, enveloping all the rain ninja's bodies without stopping.
The sword light seemed to turn into twisted and deflected white lines, like a large net composed of dense silk threads, shining in the sun, almost blinding Xiao Nan's eyes.
Time seems to have passed for a moment, and it seems like a long time.
When she came back to her senses again, Xiao Nan only felt that there seemed to be something hanging in her hair, and she subconsciously took it down and took a look, but it was half a bloody intestine.
At that moment, Xiao Nan can't remember what she felt in her heart now, and the only thing she remembers seems to be the scene she saw.
And that scene deeply shocked this little girl who was only six years old at the time - all the rain ninja, including her brother, sister, and uncle who usually had a good relationship with her......
Everyone...... All the people were reduced to pieces of mutilated meat.
That's not a fight anymore...... Xiao Nan thought in his heart:
That's a massacre at all, it's over in a matter of seconds, a massacre!
Some of these pieces of flesh, or corpses, hung on the treetops, some were scattered on the ground, and some were smashed on their children.
The red blood mist that filled the air slowly drifted to the surroundings under the breeze.
As far as the eye could see, within a radius of tens of meters, it was like a blood-colored world all of a sudden.
The strong smell of blood filled his nose, and the damp touch appeared on his body, Xiao Nan, like several companions beside him, stared blankly at the hell in front of him, and ......
The black in the red...... The man who stood quietly in the middle of the field, bowed his head, as if thinking about something, like a grim reaper.
Time passed minute by minute, and at this fateful juncture, Xiao Nan thought that he would definitely die.
Unexpectedly, the black-robed man suddenly raised his head and simply spit out a word at them:
"Get out."
After that, Xiao Nan couldn't remember what happened in a daze, she just obeyed the instinct of her body and subconsciously wanted to stay away from the vicinity of death.
They seemed to have escaped from the black-robed man's hands, and they seemed to have successfully escaped from Konoha's encirclement without realizing it.
But after all, they are just a bunch of children, without the protection of ninjas, and they want to survive in this war-torn country...... The difficulty is really high.
After a difficult journey for a while, one by one, his companions either starved to death, or were scattered, or were killed by the aftermath of ninjutsu that flew from nowhere......
In the end, when he came to the current town, Xiao Nan had no companions by his side.
However, maybe it's God's blessing, maybe it's better luck, or maybe it's because of your own psychological quality and strong physical strength......
In short, Xiao Nan survived in the end.
No matter how difficult the situation is, even if the situation is desperate, we must grit our teeth and continue to move forward, and never give up the hope of life - this is the belief that Xiao Nan has produced after experiencing all kinds of ups and downs.
Then, she began - the life of picking up garbage in the town's garbage dump.
There is only one purpose: to fill the stomach.
It's a pity that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, even in the garbage dumps that are almost unfrequented:
Xiao Nan encountered a gang of war orphans, and on the same day, a few slices of bread that she had managed to find were snatched away.
In desperation, in order to survive, Xiao Nan had to let go of what little dignity he had left in his heart and returned to the town to beg.
Maybe it's the luck in the misfortune, or maybe it's the heavens that finally favored this six-year-old girl, and during a begging process, Xiao Nan happened to see - the pickpocket Yahiko was stealing.
Out of a natural and indescribable favor, Xiao Nan did not shout, nor did he try to expose Yahiko.
Xiao Nan just silently watched this evil happen in front of him, without any fluctuations in his heart, and even wanted to laugh a little.
So, maybe she really thought it was fun, maybe it was the inexplicable good feeling that was working, so she subconsciously smiled at Yahiko.
At this time, Yahiko just happened to get his hands on it, and was about to slip away quietly, when he happened to see the girl sitting on the ground sloppily and smiling at him not far away.
With a single thought, the origin is formed from this moment.
