Chapter 42: The Eve of the Great War
Who? With a scolding from the steel hand, the murderous aura suddenly spread throughout the room.
"It's me, Sister Steelhand." Hippo Hanyu replied in a lazy voice, it seems that the steel hand has not completely lost his vigilance! Her situation may be better than she thought.
"Hanyu?" Hearing the voice of Hippo Hanyu, the surprise of the steel hand was no less than mute, "Why are you here?" The steel sign language was reproachful, and he thought to himself: this kid is too nonsense, and he doesn't look at what this place is.
"Isn't it! Sister Steelhand, are you so upset to see me? I'm still worried about your safety, and it really hurts my heart to come all the way to see you. Hippo Hanyu seemed to have been greatly wronged, and the tears didn't come down.
"Flutter" Steel Hand couldn't help laughing, and scolded with a smile: "You kid can play treasure, sister isn't worried about you!" Also, don't change the subject, how did you end up here? ”
Sure enough, the steel hand was not as easy to fool as the little girl who muted it, so he had to say seriously: "Allah! I was sent by three generations of adults, so you don't have to worry about it, sister. ”
"Did the teacher really ask you to come?" Steel Hand was a little skeptical, and then thought of a possibility, "Your body has fully recovered?" ”
"Sure enough, I still can't hide it from you, Sister Steelhand! I wanted to surprise you. Hippo Hanyu had a boring look.
"It's great that you can recover, but you still haven't said why the third generation arranged for you to come here?" The Iron Hand is really unforgiving!
"The old man sees that I am too idle, so I am here to be your attendant." There's no way to bluff, Hippo Hanyu replied half-jokingly, half-seriously.
"Old man? You mean the teacher! "Steel Hand really didn't know that Hanyu the hippo was so familiar with the three generations, and even the title had become so intimate.
"Who else but him?" Hippo Hanyu shrugged his shoulders, not in the slightest intention to get off the steel hand bed.
Steel Hand looked at the cleaned room, and was still wondering if it was silent to come in and clean up, but Hippo Hanyu's next words made Steel Hand blush, and he was very faceless.
"I said, Sister, how long has it been since your room was cleaned up? And how long has it been since that pile of clothes been washed? The point is why there are so many bottles of wine in your room, and you can't drink all of them, right? Hippo Hanyu asked a lot of questions like a cannon, raised a hand, and dangled between the mountain-like dirty clothes and the dozen or so wine bottles in the corner.
The steel hand glared at him angrily, walked to the side of the bed, grabbed his ear and said, "Boy, who allowed you to enter my room, and who allowed you to touch my things, and who allowed you to sleep on my bed?" "No matter how you look at it, I feel that Hanyu the hippo was righteously in front of the fierce steel hand, like a little daughter-in-law who had just passed the door, wronged.
"Oh my god! Do you tap it, these ears are about to fall off. Hippo Hanyu shouted without hesitation.
At this moment, I stabbed the hornet's nest, the eyebrows of the steel hand were about to stand up, and the hand that grabbed the hippo Hanyu's ear was even harder, plus a 180-degree rotation: "It's not bad that this ear falls off, I'm still thinking about whether I should fry it or fry it, or you can come up with an idea?" ”
"I'd suggest it's better to eat it boiled, but it's better not to eat mine, there's no meat." Looking at the steel hand, Hippo Hanyu felt very happy, such a steel hand was familiar to him.
"You-" The steel hand was about to be defeated, and the strength in his hand increased again, as if he was gambling with Hippo Hanyu to see who would admit defeat first.
Hanyu the hippo, who originally wanted to continue playing with the steel hand, saw the momentum of the steel hand, and immediately became deflated, the hero doesn't suffer the loss in front of him, why should he have trouble with his ears, and hurriedly said: "Lord Steelhand, Sister Steelhand, can't I be wrong?" You have a lot of adults, so don't be like the little brother in general, the little brother is still young, if you really don't have ears, how can you see people! ”
I begged for mercy, but the steel hand didn't move, and continued to launch a verbal offensive: "Besides, if my ears are really gone, when the time comes, it won't be your sister who will be heartbroken." If for this reason, no one will take a fancy to me at that time, then I won't be like Uncle Jiraiya, and be a diamond king. ”
"Diamond King Five? What do you mean? Steelhand asked, a little unintelligible.
"It's a rich single man!" Hippo Hanyu felt that Steelhand's hand was lighter, so he broke Steelhand's hand and got up from the bed.
Steel Hand shook his head with a smile and said with a smile: "I'll think about some messy things, with this kung fu, it's better to practice hard and become a Hokage in the future." "Perhaps under the influence of her younger brother Kazu, Steel decided in her heart that Konoha's excellent ninja should be the goal of the Hokage.
"Hokage?" Hippo Hanyu was surprised: "Why do you want to be the Hokage?" Besides, Konoha has the three of you shinobi here, as well as Lord Zixiao, and the water gate, so why can't the Hokage take my turn! I'm lazy, I'm too responsible for being a Hokage, I'm too busy with work, and I'll die a lot of brain cells, and I'll die of overwork if I don't do it. ”
Steel Hand rolled her eyes, among the people she knew, Jiraiya and Hippo Hanyu were the other in Konoha Shinobi, all the same, well, the same shameless.
Hippo Hanyu didn't know that the steel hand gave him such a high evaluation, comparing him to Jiraiya, if he knew, he was afraid that he would be moved to tears.
"I'm gone, I've been here for so long, I haven't eaten yet! Today I have a treat. The steel hand patted the head of the hippo Hanyu and said.
"It's really rare for Steelhand-sama to have a treat." A sly smile flashed in Hippo Hanyu's eyes and asked, "Then can I call a few friends to go with me?" ”
"Whatever you want!" The steel hand didn't see the uneasy and kind eyes of Hippo Hanyu, and agreed......
Hippo Hanyu's friends are really "several"! Steel Hand looked at the two tables full of people, speechless in her heart, the cold sweat on her head flowed down, she was still wondering if the money in her pocket that she had lost was enough to pay for today's meal.
This is wartime, and it seems a little inappropriate for Hippo Hanyu to make such a big battle, but everyone knows that it is a steel hand to treat and celebrate Hippo Hanyu's recovery, and it is also very face-saving to eat.
Hanyu the hippo during the banquet was not so relaxed, especially after many of his classmates were either dead or injured, and they were a little heavy. He is also reflecting on himself, no matter how special he is, but Konoha is the place where he was born and raised after all, at least so far, Konoha has not done anything to be sorry for him.
On the other hand, he is obviously a share of Konoha in such a crisis, but he still wants to live his own peaceful life and evade responsibility. Even the women of the Iron Hand are able to fight for their homeland, and their recent performance seems to be no match for women.
"What do you think?" Red, who was sitting next to him, came over and asked.
"Maybe I should do something different!" Hippo Hanyu said thoughtlessly, and he was a little dazed when he heard it.
Hippo Hanyu has already made a positive reply in his heart, think about it carefully, the reason why he is so low-key, in addition to not wanting to have too many tasks to trouble and affect his life, is also to face the future enemy Xiao Shi has more trump cards, if Xiao does not know his existence, when thinking about dealing with Konoha, there will be a big loophole, but his cover seems to be a bit overkill.
Whenever Hippo Hanyu is thinking about these issues, he will be extraordinarily devoted, and even carefully calculate the details, weigh the pros and cons, and then make a decision. Extensive data collection, careful analysis, bold speculation, careful investment, and timely closure are the reasons why he was able to stand out from so many traders and rise to the top of the company's investment analysts within three years.
This meal was very tight, everyone had their own things to do, and now it seemed that they were idle alone, and after the steel hand arranged for Hippo Hanyu to go back to her room and wait for her, the person disappeared again.
"Let's go! Let's go to the front and see. Hippo Hanyu patted Bo Feng Shuimen's shoulder and said.
The two of them chatted while walking, Bo Feng Shuimen, who knew Hippo Hanyu's other identity, didn't think that Hippo Hanyu would be so simple when he arrived at this critical moment, "You won't come alone, right?" ”
"I know I can't hide it from you, I was ordered to support, and I brought fifty people to the dark army, but these fifty people are a drop in the bucket on the current battlefield, so I don't plan to let them join now, and when they come out at a critical moment, the effect will be greater."
Bo Feng Shuimen nodded, he can understand Hippo Hanyu's approach, and he will adopt the same strategy if he changes, the current situation is that Konoha is in a weak position, even if it is an alliance with the sand ninja, but because of the entanglement between the two sides for many years, this ally is not so reliable, after the previous two years of war with the sand ninja, Konoha and the sand ninja have been crippled, compared to the heyday, it can be said that it is far behind. This is also why Iwa Shinobi, Cloud Shinobi, and Fog Shinobi chose this time to attack Sand Shinobi, and even wanted to take down Konoha in one go.
"This battle will be a very crucial battle for Konoha, the village has invested six layers of strength for this battle, if it is not decided, I am afraid that it will be dangerous for Mr. Jiraiya and Lord Zixiao."
"Where's Orochimaru?" Hippo Hanyu was very strange, he had been here for a long time, but he didn't see this big boss, and asked.
"Well, let's go back and talk about it!" It seems that Orochimaru's whereabouts are a military secret, and Bo Feng Shuimen is extremely careful.
"This is the former site of the ancient city of Kikyo, according to the current news, the ninja of the Sand Hidden Village will come here to meet us Konoha in Konoha, but the people of the rock ninja have been biting the sand ninja now, and when the time comes, it is inevitable to meet here." Bo Feng Shuimen whispered, pointing to the ruined walls of the ancient city of Kikyo, and his tone was a little heavy.
"For this war, everyone's confidence is a little insufficient, although we Konoha claim to have a thousand ninjas, but the actual situation you have also seen, the upper ninja is less than thirty percent, the middle ninja is thirty percent, and the rest are all lower ninjas, really send them to the battlefield, that's no different from sending them to death. What is more serious is that the wounded accounted for 30% of all personnel, while the non-combat ninja accounted for 10%, and the actual combat power was quite limited. Bo Feng Shuimen sighed and said the cruel reality.
Now everyone is putting their hopes on the two adults, Orochimaru and Iron Hand, and they are under a lot of pressure! In addition to leading the entire army, Lord Steel has to go to the medical squad to treat the wounded.
"Isn't there still you?" Although the reality is grim, Hippo Hanyu knows that Konoha is the final victory in this war, although he doesn't know the specific situation of this war, but Bo Feng Shuimen has established his position in the leadership of Konoha through this battle, if he doesn't get involved, he will definitely become a lone star of the Konoha Qingzhuang faction.
