Chapter 25: Enlightenment
"Teacher Akai, can you let me go?"
Feeling the big hand that still exerted power on his shoulder, Ninji shook his body and looked back at Akai and Kakashi with serious faces.
"Don't be so impulsive next time, Ningci!"
Looking at the disciple who had almost become unfamiliar for a moment, a trace of worry flashed in Akai's eyes, and his tone was slightly low.
"I'll remember that, Mr. Akai!"
After glancing coldly at Kakashi, Ning Ji snorted coldly and turned around and walked towards the exit.
"You bastard, where are you going?"
Looking at Ninji, who had injured Hinata without the slightest sign of repentance, Naruto Uzumaki asked with a burst of fire in his heart.
"Haven't you learned your lesson, or have you not listened to what I have to say?"
Looking at Naruto Uzumaki, who was still unrelenting, Ning Ji smiled dumbly.
"No matter how strong you are, for Hinata's sake, I will definitely defeat you!"
As if he had learned a lesson from the scene just now, this time Naruto did not choose to do it directly, but suppressed the anger in his heart, stretched out his right hand and pointed at Ning Ji and said loudly.
"Knock me down, won't you?"
Naruto's words were stated in his mouth, making Ning Ci's expression slowly turn cold, this was the first time that he looked at the young man in front of him, looking at the other party with the same gaze, and the murderous aura that had been suppressed on weekdays was wantonly vented at this moment, so that Kakashi and Akai beside him couldn't help but look shocked, this level of murderous aura was about to overtake them, and Shangnin couldn't help but be shocked, not to mention the little ghosts around him who weren't even Zhongnin.
"The current Ningci is so terrifying!"
Sakura, who had felt the murderous aura of Orochimaru, couldn't help but turn pale at the moment, and her body subconsciously moved away from Ning Ci a few steps, but she was indifferent to Ning Ci's murderous aura, only the stands had been watching Ning Ci's I Ai Luo, at this moment, his eyes were open, like a spider's web of bloodshot all over the eyeballs, it seemed that Ning Ci's murderous aura had a great impact on him.
"Naruto Uzumaki, remember what I said, the next time you meet me, you will die at my hands, if you don't want to die, hurry up and become stronger during this time!"
Ning Ci's eyes were full of malice that was no longer hidden, and the naked killing intent made Naruto's body on the side suddenly stiffen, looking at the embarrassed Naruto, Ning Ci sneered disdainfully and walked out.
In the process of passing through Xiao Li, Ning Ci suddenly stopped, did not look back, just said something lightly.
"Xiao Li, I know your strength very well, but what I say next, you have to listen clearly, if your opponent is me Ai Luo either abstain, or burst out with all his strength at the beginning, if you can defeat him!"
Leaving this sentence, Ning Ci stopped staying, he no longer had his own competition, staying like this, Ning Ci was afraid that he would not be able to restrain his malice towards that nine-tailed kid, and really killed him here.
"Akai-sensei?"
Listening to Ning Ci's last warning, Xiao Li raised his head and looked at Akai beside him with a complicated expression.
"Let him go, be so calm and calm alone!"
Akai stared at Ning Ci's back and said slowly.
Different from the original book, now Tian Tian and Xiao Li have already understood what the Zong family is bound to Ning Ci, although they sympathize with Hinata's experience, but they will not interfere in the things that belong to Ning Ci, after all, Ning Ci's strength, they know very well, if he really has murderous intentions towards Hinata, I am afraid that even the teacher will not be able to catch up.
And this fact, Mr. Akai is obviously aware of it.
"Lee, if your opponent is that Sand Hidden Ninja, I allow you to use that!"
Hearing Ning Ci's warning to Xiao Li, Akai also felt a bad aura from Sha Yin's red-haired boy who was carrying a gourd, and he became vigilant in his heart, and began to lift the usual restraints on Xiao Li's strength.
"Hey, I see, Mr. Akai!"
Excitedly shook his right hand, Xiao Li was obviously very happy with Akai's decision, and only Akai and Xiao Li knew the meaning of the dialogue.
Listening to the conversation between the master and apprentice, Kakashi on the side stared at the two with complicated expressions, as Akai's mortal enemy, perhaps only he knew what Akai meant.
In the center of the stands, the three generations of Hokage, who had been watching all this from the beginning, Sarutobi had a heavy face, even he didn't expect that Ning Ji had grown to such a point, and the plan that he had expected in his heart before had become a little uncertain at this moment.
And the friction between Ninji and Naruto made him understand that it might not be so easy to untie this child's heart knot now!
Thinking of this, this old man, who was nearly seventy years old, suddenly felt extremely tired in his heart!
Rubbing his temples on both sides with a headache, he fell into Naruto's gaze, as if remembering the figure of the blonde man, and the Miyome Hokage couldn't help but say with emotion: "Mizumon, if it were you, you should be able to do better!" ”
The red bean and the dark part beside him were slightly stunned when they heard this, and their eyes glanced at the obvious age spots on the cheeks of the old man in front of them, which made the eyes of the two of them slightly dim, yes, even if it is the Hokage of Konoha, this man is already too old, obviously he has stepped down, but he has ushered in the bad news of the fourth generation, and he has to take over the responsibility of the Hokage again, and the complicated things over the years have made this old man, who is already too old, become exhausted.
Knowing this, the two of them did not disturb the old man's memories of the past alone!
……
Leaving the exercise ground, Ning Ci appeared next to Tian Tian, looking at Tian Tian, who was already asleep, even Ning Ci, who was wantonly exuding a killing intent not long ago, couldn't help but have a warm face, his eyes showed a hint of strangeness, he sat quietly in front of the hospital bed, and slowly closed his eyes.
It was a very quiet moment!
Three days after the end of the selection exam, Konoha's sanatorium.
Ning Ci and Tian Tian's figures appeared, but this time they went to visit Xiao Li.
Although he was reminded by Ning Ci, he used all his strength to use the power and speed of the opening of the Eight Gates Dunjia at the beginning, which really caught my Ai Luo off guard, but as time passed, Xiao Li still fell into the dilemma in Ning Ci's memory, that is, the strength and speed he obtained in exchange for opening the Eight Gates Dun Jia could not cause enough damage to my Ai Luo to end this competition.
As the side effects of Bamen Dunjia gradually became obvious, he still lost the competition, but what was better than his memory was that with Ning Ci's reminder, Akai was deliberately on guard, and he shot at the moment when I Ai Luo tried to crush the leg bones of Xiao Li's legs.
Therefore, Ning Ci looked at Xiao Li, who was lying on the hospital bed and was wrapped in bandages, it was just a sequelae after opening the Eight Doors Dunjia, but even so, I am afraid that Xiao Li would probably lie on the hospital bed for a long time.
"Well, you already know enough about your own strength, right?"
Ning Ci sat on the edge of the bed, and Tian Tian, who had recovered, was peeling apples for Xiao Li with a knife, and looked at Xiao Li, who couldn't move on the hospital bed, and asked lightly.
"Well, although I am unwilling, I don't regret it, I have tried my best, and I already roughly understand how far I can go!"
Lying on the hospital bed, Xiao Li's eyes turned slightly through the thick bandage, and his tone did not show any frustration, but revealed firmness.
"You've grown, Lee!"
Holding his hands, Ning Ci sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Xiao Li, who was like a mummy, and his tone revealed a trace of emotion.
"Yesterday Naruto they came to see me!"
Xiao Li, who was lying on the hospital bed, suddenly mentioned this matter, which made the atmosphere in the ward drop to freezing point in an instant, and hearing this almost made Tiantian, who was peeling an apple, tremble.
"Oh, I see!"
After being silent for a while, Ning Ci glanced at Xiao Li on the bed and still gave an answer.
"Naruto told me that Hinata's injuries are serious and she is still in the emergency room!"
Xiao Li couldn't move at all, and could only look at the changes in Ning Ci on the side through the peripheral vision of his eyes.
"Are you blaming me, Lee?"
Quietly looking at the companion in front of him, Ning Ci's tone changed slightly.
"No, I just think I'm getting farther and farther away from you now, I'm afraid even Mr. Akai doesn't know how far you have reached now......"
Speaking of this, Xiao Li's tone became a little more serious, turned around with difficulty, and set his eyes on Ning Ci, who was silent on the side.
"Li, your injuries are not healed yet, don't force yourself so much!"
While peeling the apple, Tiantian, who listened to the conversation between the two, watched Xiao Li's movements and hurriedly stopped it.
"In fact, you also know every day, Ning Ci, who is stronger than us, trains harder than any of us, that level of training, day after day, year after year, it can be said that no one in the entire Konoha is harder than you, but why, Ning Ci, you have become so strong, why do you force yourself, that kind of heart seems to have something that has been oppressing you, making your whole person become strange!"
Lying on the hospital bed, Xiao Li told the truth that Tiantian had been hiding in his heart.
"Are you curious about this?"
Listening to Xiao Li's doubts, Ning Ci's expression became calmer and calmer, and he quietly watched the two of them ask indifferently.
"There is a point, we don't know what Ning Ci is hiding in your heart, I'm just worried about you, as for why, probably because you are the first person to identify with me!"
When Xiao Li said this, the people on the side didn't object every day, and it seemed that she was also expressing the worries in her heart.
"If I had to say anything, it would be simple......
Ning Ci was silent for a moment when he said this, and then added: "It is precisely because I have become stronger that I have become more and more insignificant in my previous self, I have lost myself because of fate, and I don't want to lose my soul because of weakness!" ”
Speaking of this, Ning Ci closed his eyes, and fragments of memories from the future flashed in his mind one by one.
The Chunin exam lost to Naruto Uzumaki at the last moment, and not only was he physically defeated, but even at that moment, even the self was denied by himself, and the belief he had always insisted on was also defeated, believing in Hizuki and reconciling with the clan.
But in the end, their fate was no different from the fate of the split family for thousands of years, they were bound by the curse seal and had to die for the clan, while they were willingly set foot on their own destiny, and resisted the attack of the Ten Tails for Asura, the son of the reincarnation of the Six Dao Immortals.
In the end, nothing could change, and the division remained a separation, imprisoned on the forehead of the caged bird brand, and imprisoned not only the Lord's own body, but even his own soul became unowned.
If this is my fate, I choose to refuse!
Ning Ci opened his eyes, and from this moment he began to struggle against his fate.
