Chapter 18: The Massacre
Chapter 18: The Massacre
Naruto woke up just around noon.
This sleep...... Sleep so well!
In the consciousness space, it seems that time does not pass quickly, but in the real world, it has indeed passed a long time.
Naruto sighed softly.
After sitting up, Naruto squinted at the scenery outside.
The bright sun shines in, and the sun warms people.
"It's comfortable~"
Stretching again, Naruto stood up and looked to the side.
Song Song had woken up at some point, and there was no one on the bed. Well, this little guy won't get lost. Speaking of the current Konoha Village, it is more familiar than yourself!
When he walked downstairs and stood on the street, Naruto was still in a trance.
Thinking about a conversation with the Nine-Tails last night, Naruto was silent for a while.
The world of Onmyoji is too complicated! But ...... Isn't that the world of ninjas?
With a light smile, Naruto tossed these thoughts behind him and strode forward.
School...... Now I can't go. Iruka's face might be on his face, and besides, it's not far from the end of class. Let's go again in the afternoon......
Holding his "cooing" belly, Naruto licked the corners of his mouth.
"Man is iron, rice is steel. Gotta have breakfast first!"
Humming all the way, it looks so uncomfortable!
After turning a few streets, Naruto stood in front of a noodle shop.
Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant.
"If you don't eat enough today, you won't leave. Putting down such "rhetoric", Naruto was ready to achieve his "feat"!
As soon as Naruto lifted his foot, a voice sounded behind him that he thought was terrifying, "Naruto, are you here to eat now?"
The figure trembled slightly, and Naruto's foot stopped in the air. After half a ring, he turned his head mechanically, with a full smile on his face.
"Yi ...... Teacher Iruka...... Ahh
Looking at Naruto's "hehe" smirk, Iruka looked puzzled.
"Naruto, what's wrong with you?"
Iruka looked as if he was holding something in his hand, and looked at Naruto closer: "I was going to go to your house and bring you something!
And at this moment, Naruto's mind was wandering......
What's going on?
Iruka-sensei didn't scold me?
Why didn't he criticize me?
Is this a superficial appearance? In fact, he is already very angry?
Come to think of it, I've been skipping class, and now I'm being caught again, and Iruka won't eat me!
God, what have I done? Why is it that sooner or later, sooner or later, has I been caught at this time and in this place?
I......
"Hey, hey. Naruto came back to his senses and saw two fingers hooked.
"I said Naruto, what do you want, and you're still distracted for a long time when you say something!" Iruka said as she put the things in her hand into Naruto's hand, "Okay, the clothes I promised you are finally ready......
Naruto turned his head blankly and stared blankly at the suit of clothes in his hand.
Slowly, the stunned eyes were filled with emotion.
Still standing in place, but the dangling leg has been lowered at some point. Holding the clothes Iruka had given him in both hands, Naruto didn't speak.
The drooping Ruhai covered Naruto's eyes, and the sunlight shone brightly, reflecting the young man's small figure.
Iruka looked at the child and smiled with satisfaction.
Turning around, he was ready to leave.
At this moment, a soft voice suddenly came from behind him, and Iruka was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and left.
"Iruka-sensei, thank you so much!"
After walking a few steps, Iruka seemed to remember something, and turned around and shouted, "That's right! Naruto, let's go back to class tomorrow." No holiday tomorrow!"
Hearing this, Naruto was stunned: "Holiday?
Hurriedly raised his head and looked into the distance, Iruka's figure had disappeared into the crowd.
Looking at the things in his hand, Naruto smiled softly.
――
On the way home, Naruto's face was expressionless, but his heart was warm.
In Konoha Village, the one who helps himself make clothes, Iruka, is the first!
"Hehe~" Naruto smirked.
As he turned the street in front of him, Naruto looked at the tall apartment buildings, and for the first time felt like he was at home.
Konoha ah......
Silently raising his steps, Naruto walked up the stairs step by step.
As soon as he pushed the door open, a small figure couldn't wait to pounce.
Naruto smiled and closed the door. Hanging around the neck, of course, is our little cutie - loose!
"Early in the morning, just run around!, where did you go?" Naruto put down the clothes in his hand and looked at the little guy with a pretended reproach.
The little guy's eyes were shining, and his ears were pulled down, looking aggrieved.
"Okay, okay, don't talk about you, don't try to fool me with the way you look!" Naruto said as he picked up Matsumatsu with a smile on his face.
"Tell me, where did our pine go, tell me about it too......"
The little squirrel jumped off Naruto's hand and pointed at the imp brothers to the side and squeaked twice.
"Oh?" Naruto's expression suddenly became serious, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Naruto said the latter sentence to the two imps.
"We ...... We found a lot of dead people!"
"Mmmm, all the people in that area are dead, it's terrible!"
The two imps scrambled to speak. Not only to say, but also to gesture.
Hearing this, Naruto's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"Dead man?Konoha? What the hell is going on?"
As if thinking about something, the two little imps said, "This morning, we smelled a strong smell of death, and it was so attractive. ”
"Yes, yes. So, we got up early. When we went out, we walked around and finally found the place. It seems like a big place with a lot of dead people!"
"We're still ......"
Listening to the incessant words of these two imps, Naruto thought deeply.
So, a lot of people died in Konoha Village last night?
Was it murdered, or was it ......
Naruto suddenly raised his head and asked the two imps, "Where is the toad?"
"The toad ghost has gone to the Dead Man's Zone!"
"Toad?" Naruto thought for a moment, maybe that was what the two guys called the toad.
"Even the toads are gone, so there are quite a few dead!"
"It's just...... Who would dare to kill people in Konoha......'s place?
Naruto sat on the edge of the bed thinking about it. At this moment, a black mist appeared out of thin air in the room.
The black mist slowly changed into the appearance of a toad, and Naruto remained silent, "Coming back?"
After listening to Naruto's inquiry, Toad suddenly spat out and said, "It's a lot of people who died." However, it has now been almost cleaned up. There are a lot of people, and the strength is strong!"
"Hmm. ”
"Do you know whose house it is?"
The toad's voice was a little hoarse, and he said slowly, "It seems to be ...... People with the Uchiha surname!"
"Uchiha?"
Naruto's head couldn't turn.
The Uchiha family, that is the absolute number one family in Konoha. Who would, who would dare, who would have the strength to destroy the people of the Uchiha family?
"That'...... Is there anyone alive?" Naruto looked at the toad, desperate to know something.
"This ...... I don't know. ”
"Oh. ”
Naruto nodded and sat back on the bed.
The Uchiha family's ......
Such a powerful ninja family will be wiped out if it is extinguished, how powerful should that person be?
Thinking about it, Naruto felt more and more insignificant.
"Own strength...... It's not enough!"
"Live ...... It seems that there is a power in the netherworld!" Looking at Naruto on the bed, he frowned bitterly, and the toad who was quietly squatting in place suddenly said this without a head.
"What?"
"Even the Netherworld?"
"The people of the Uchiha family, what kind of people are you offended?"
Naruto muttered softly.
There was a bit of melancholy between his eyebrows.
