Chapter 221: Choice

"Teacher", although Mikido doesn't want to disturb Hippo Hanyu and Hong, time waits for no one.

"Don, what's the matter?" Hippo Hanyu knew that he had something very important to talk about, and he didn't think that their family got together here, what a coincidence, it must have been something.

Tang glanced around, and all the people present were reliable people, so he had nothing to hide, and directly recounted all the things that had happened during this period of time.

"Teacher, you didn't kill those people, did you? Must they have wronged you? Jing asked weakly, hoping that all this had nothing to do with the teacher, although she herself was not confident in it.

Looking at everyone's expectant eyes, it seems that my answer is really important! Hippo Hanyu didn't like this solemn atmosphere the most, so he waved his hand relaxedly: "Regarding this matter, I will tell you when I return to the village, there are more important things now." ”

Hippo Hanyu didn't deny it, so it was a tacit acquiescence, and everyone thought.

"Sensei", Don hesitated, pulled Hippo Hanyu aside, and said, "Tsunade-sama ordered us to leave Konoha immediately after we find you, and never go back." ”

"Huh?" Hippo Hanyu raised his eyebrows, the murderous aura on his body condensed, and he replied gloomily after a while: "I know." ”

Hippo Hanyu threw the dazed Tang aside, and said to Kakashi, who had almost calmed down, "The state of the village, you are also clear, there are still five minutes, you rush back immediately." Presumably, rumors are already flying in the village now, and if we give people an excuse at this time, we will be very passive in the future. β€œ

"What about you?" Red asked worriedly, and it was clear that Hanyu the hippo had no intention of going back with them.

"Don't worry, I'll be back in due course, you don't have to worry." Hippo Hanyu nodded, and just went back, didn't he hit the muzzle of the gun himself? How could he do such a stupid thing, "When you go back to the village, don't mention the matter of seeing me." ”

At the repeated urging of Hippo Hanyu, Kakashi and his party quickly left, but one person stayed.

Asma took a deep breath of his cigarette, looking at Hippo Hanyu's eyes were a little complicated, as a friend, he didn't want to see Hippo Hanyu get hurt in the slightest, but as the guardian of Konoha, he couldn't let Hippo Hanyu act so recklessly. "You did it!" Asma said with a full of vicissitudes, not a question, but an affirmation.

"Give me a cigarette." Hippo Hanyu waved his hand at Xia Zhiyuan, signaling him to stay away.

Hippo Hanyu took the cigarette, slowly put it in front of his nose and smelled it, although he hasn't smoked for a long time, the smell is still so familiar! Hanyu the hippo skillfully lit the cigarette, followed Asma's example, and spit out a smoke ring towards the sky, "You know that smoking is harmful to your health, why do you smoke it?" ”

This is completely out of touch with the wind horse and the cow, Asma doesn't understand what the hippo Hanyu wants to say to him, but the question of the hippo Hanyu evokes the memory in his heart.

"I remember telling you something about the time I left Konoha!" Asma looked up at the sky, as if through the sky, he could see the time.

"......, the twelve of us, fighting for a common goal and a common goal, gradually broke through to fame and were awarded the honor of the twelve guardians of fire by the daimyo, but, as time went on, differences gradually arose between us, and we wanted to establish a fire country with the only jade of the daimyo, but many nobles, including the daimyo, did not agree with our idea. They have become accustomed to the coexistence of two jades as they are now, and as a result, we are forced to choose between the daimyo. While a few of my companions and I chose to protect the Daimyo, while the rest of my companions thought we had betrayed, they decided to take an extreme measure to achieve theirs, and firmly believed that what they were doing was the right thing to do. ”

Asma fell into his memory, unaware that the cigarette butt had burned his hand, and it was probably because he sensed the heat in his hand that he shook off the injured cigarette butt and continued: "There was a battle between us, and the result of the battle was that we won and they died at our hands. But after the victory, we couldn't find a little bit of happiness, and the Twelve Guardians of Fire have disappeared from the Land of Fire since then. We won the battle, but we lost our brothers, we lost our faith, and soon after, I was back in Konoha. ”

Hanyu the hippo listened quietly to Asma's stories, although he knew the general situation, but he didn't know Asma's inner thoughts, it turned out that he was living in pain and confusion with guilt, like a walking corpse.

"Why? Why give up your beliefs? Hippo Hanyu asked in a low voice.

"Why?" Asma repeated, "Because the distance from reality is too great, because we don't want our hands to be stained red with innocent blood in order to achieve ours." ”

"Hmm!" Hippo Hanyu snuffed out the cigarette and didn't ask for a second one, he hadn't smoked it for a long time, and he was still a little unaccustomed to it!

"It's funny! I even ran away from home to quarrel with the old man, but in the endβ€”" Asma laughed to herself, tears welling up in her eyes.

"I'm not as great as you", Hippo Hanyu patted him on the shoulder with some feelings, and said: "My biggest thing is a harmonious family and a happy life, but unfortunately, I am a Konoha ninja, although it is not voluntary, but for the sake of my simplicity, I also have to make myself stronger, and stronger." But once a person becomes stronger, the greater the responsibility, and gradually he becomes a little involuntary. ”

When Hippo Hanyu thought of the past, he suddenly laughed and said: "Originally, I just wanted to be an audience, but people are always emotional animals, because there are feelings and concerns, so I have done a lot of things that I can't understand myself." ”

"For example?" Asma was a little curious, he was the first to hear Hippo Hanyu mention his inner thoughts.

"For example, I met Broken, Jiraiya, Tsunade, three generations, and then I was haunted by one task after another, and then it was you, in my heart, my relatives and friends are mine, and I will never betray the ground." Hippo Hanyu's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he said coldly: "So, for my sake, I don't mind staining my hands with blood, even if it's innocent blood." ”

Asma's hands clenched violently, and the stubbornness of Hippo Hanyu was so similar to that of his former friend, "But, I am a ninja of Konoha, and maybe one day, I will kill you for Konoha, just as I killed my own companion for the land of fire." ”

"You won't," said Hippo Hanyu confidently, "because I won't give you that chance." The murderous intent in Hippo Hanyu's eyes flashed, he is not a persimmon, anyone can pinch it.

"What are you going to do?" Asma was so alert, he naturally saw the murderous intent in the eyes of Hippo Hanyu clearly, and sighed in his heart, he really didn't want to experience that kind of thing again, he really didn't want to.

"I'm also a Konoha ninja, and I'll solve this matter the way Konoha does." Hippo Hanyu knew his thoughts and was happy to have such a friend, but he still had a lot to do now, "I'll go back to you and give Konoha an explanation." ”

"Tsunade, the time has come, Kakashi hasn't come back yet." As soon as the time came, Mito Menyan ran over to remind Tsunade, as if she had forgotten.

Tsunade's eyes were gloomy, but in his heart he was happy that Kakashi and the others didn't come back: this is fine, and he doesn't have to be in a dilemma.

"Since I said it, I will definitely do it", Tsunade said angrily, a little dissatisfied with Mito Menyan's aggressiveness, but Hippo Hanyu killed his family, and it was normal for him to do this at the moment.

"Wait-", Jiraiya didn't want to come in and join in the fun, but he had already seen Kakashi's figure appear in Konoha, "Kakashi has already returned, although it took a minute or two, but because of this, it was a bit too much to assume that he had defected!" Jiraiya stretched, pretending not to see the disappointment in Tsunade's eyes.

The arrival of Kakashi and his party immediately filled the entire office, and the so-called large number of people is probably to describe Kakashi and them! Seven or eight shinobi went there to stop, and the momentum was extraordinary, even if Mito Menyan wanted to make trouble, he would not choose this time.

Tsunade glared at Mikido fiercely, but Mikido didn't bird her at all, and from the moment he entered the door, he lowered his head and looked at the ground, as if he could find gold from the ground, and he looked so engaged that he naturally couldn't comprehend Tsunade's anger.

This little turmoil ended with Kakashi's return, and Kakashi only received some minor punishments. But everyone knows that an even bigger storm is brewing.

This night is doomed, and many people will have insomnia.

Hinata Hinata sits on his knees in his study, practicing calligraphy with a brush in hand, and Konoha is at a crossroads again, which means he must make a choice again.

Sitting in his position, he has seen his father make a lot of choices, the migration of the Senju clan of the Mori no Senju, the departure of Orochimaru, every such change is a choice question for their families, he himself has personally experienced the four generations of the inauguration of the wave wind and water gate, the Uchiha annihilation incident, the identity crisis of the hippo Hanyu, and the return of Tsunade, behind these major events, there are also the shadows of these people.

Although the negative news about Hippo Hanyu spread all over the world, he knew that to calm these downs, it was actually very simple, but the means were a little despicable, but many things, he didn't want to look so glamorous on the outside.

"Hinata-senpai is so Yaxing?" Hippo Hanyu suddenly appeared and asked leisurely.

"I'm waiting for you", Hinata Hinata didn't lift her head and continued to spill the ink, "Kakashi went and returned, and I was wondering if you were back, and besides you, I can't think of anyone else in Konoha who could turn back someone as arrogant as him." Hinata Hinata was confident, but unfortunately he guessed wrong.

Hippo Hanyu didn't bother to correct it, he was more concerned about the other news revealed in Hinata's words, "Do you know that my uncle is dead? ”

Hinata Hinata slowly put down his pen and said, "I wasn't sure, but when I saw that the person waiting for me was not him but you, I was convinced." ”

"Why?" Hippo Hanyu asked.

"It's not surprising, this is the one in the first place, in the face of a conspiracy, no matter how powerful an existence is, it will be killed. This was true of the former Uchiha Madara, the powerful Uchiha family, and even the wave wind and water gate. Although Konoha White Fang is strong in ninjutsu, he also has weaknesses, and this time the enemy is exactly punched seven inches, I think, even the three generations of adults have already had such an awareness. ”

"Yes! People who stand in the open always have to suffer some losses, just like Hinata's predecessors, always holding the mentality of doing less work and talking less, so that they can live smoothly until now. Hippo Hanyu sneered, deliberately lifting the scar on Hinata Hinata's foot.

Hinata Hinata couldn't hear that Hippo Hanyu alluded to Hinata Hinata dying on his behalf, and he was a little annoyed in his heart, "You came so late, wouldn't you just say cool things!" ”

"Of course not, I'm here to make a deal with Hinata-senpai." Hippo Hanyu knew that even if Hinata Hinata was stimulated, it should be enough, and began to get down to business.

This night, Hippo Hanyu also visited Konoha's old-timer Shimatanigawa, the elder Konoha who had helped him, as well as the father of Shino the oil girl, the brother of the oil girl Nariori - Shihiro the oil girl, and Inuzuka Ya's father Inuzuka Paw, as for what he said, probably no one knows except for themselves.
