Chapter 187: The love letter handed to you may just ask you to pass it on to someone else
"Is there anyone there?"
Chenma, who was undoubtedly chewing dry food, was awakened by the sound of the water gate, he came back to his senses, and looked at the water gate, and found three small figures floating on the river.
In an instant, because of the urgency of the war, the memory that was subconsciously hidden surfaced, and he quickly recognized these three people, the founders of the Future Akatsuki organization, Yahiko, Nagato and Konan.
Combined with the fact that after the war now, the time of their appearance seems to be right, looking at the three of them floating on the river, but there is no struggle, Chen Ma frowned, and said: "It should be drowned, fish it up and take a look." ”
"Okay."
Mizumon nodded, took out three shurikens, hung them on the tightrope with great speed, and threw them at the three who were constantly swaying and rising in the river.
The shuriken grazed the raincoats of the three men, and after hitting the riverbed, it quickly changed direction, hanging with the wire in the direction from which it came, and the three children were also caught in the wire.
If Tatsuma already has 100% of Watergate's ninja throwing talent, then the current Watergate should have also cashed in about 80% of his ninja throwing talent.
Even in terms of the application of forbearance at this stage, Shuimen is not much worse than Chenma, after all, among the limited talents of Shuimen, some skills have additional conditions, and some conditions Chenma does not have them, so they can't be played.
Mizuto gently pulled the wire in his hand, and the three children were directly fished ashore, and the surrounding Konoha ninjas did not stop or approve, many of them were chewing dry food or drinking water with blank eyes.
Even the three of them only raised their heads slightly and glanced at this side.
If Mizuto and Tatsuma were just ordinary ten-year-old children, they would still remind them to be careful of deception, but these two are no less than many ninjas who have been adults for many years in terms of ninja talent and experience, so they don't need additional reminders.
After Mizumon quickly checked the three of them and made sure that the three of them were indeed ordinary children, and there was no detonation charm or anything like that hidden on their bodies, they breathed a sigh of relief, and Tatsuma also finished eating the dry food in his hand at this time and walked over.
After simply looking at the three of them, and quietly picking Nagato's eyelids, Tatsuma said: "Drowning and lack of oxygen, plus impact contusion, there may be a concussion, a heartbeat, and you can't breathe on your own first." ”
As he spoke, Tatsuma picked up the orange-haired boy, Yahiko's leg, and lifted him up directly, but Tatsuma was surprised by the unexpected lightness in his hand.
But then I thought of the life of the three of them in the war, and I understood, holding my leg with one hand and patting Yahiko on the back with the other, and soon Yahiko spit out mouthfuls of water.
The first aid technique of the water gate was also learned, and after a while, the three of them expelled the water in their bodies, and Tatsuma checked it and found that his breathing had been restored, and his heartbeat seemed to have become a little stronger, so he did not continue to use the first aid method.
After treating the impact contusions on the three of them with medical ninjutsu, he carried them to the campfire that had been raised improvised, after all, the weather in early autumn was not cold, but it was not warm either.
In addition, I don't know how long the three children have been soaked in the water, so heating is a must, and the clothes must be dried as soon as possible.
However, this was not a hospital, so it was not so detailed, and Tatsuma didn't even take off their clothes and wring them out, just took off the raincoats, flattened them, stretched their clenched fists and curled legs, and then left it alone.
"Does it make sense? Let them go downstream, perhaps. to put an end to their suffering. ”
Just after Tatsuma and Mizuto were busy, a hoarse voice suddenly sounded, and Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru dissatisfied, Tsunade didn't look up, but he also frowned.
"If you encounter it, you will help it, and if you do it and do what you can, no one will refuse."
Tatsuma shrugged his shoulders slightly, didn't explain much, and didn't refute Orochimaru, Orochimaru's face remained unchanged, but he continued: "Maybe their tragedy was caused by us?"
Maybe saving them just made it three more people in the future who seek revenge on us Konoha ? We are ninjas and should not be so merciful. ”
"Teacher, what are you talking about?"
Rope tree gently pulled Orochimaru, Orochimaru ignored it, just continued to look at Tatsuma, Tatsuma also looked at Orochimaru, and said, "I think I'm a person first, and then a ninja."
There are indeed reasons for the destruction of the Land of Rain, but I don't think there will be any colleagues who are willing to do it again, right? Opposite. Saving people and protecting these is the reason why we became ninjas and went to war.
We are ninjas, but that doesn't mean we should abandon our humanity, duty is duty, and the heart is the heart, and we can't mix them up.
As for Orochimaru-sama, what you said about seeking revenge is too far away, as far as the current me is concerned, but do good things, don't ask about the future. ”
After Tatsuma finished speaking, even if he was sincere, he felt that he was a little numb in what he said, but looking at the dejected rope tree and the many Konoha ninjas, his eyes reappeared at this time, and he endured it.
Jilai raised his head and smiled, and before he could laugh, he pulled the injury in his chest and abdomen, grinning in pain.
A relieved smile also appeared on Tsunade's face, she couldn't say such a thing as Tatsuma, if she could, maybe these Konoha ninjas wouldn't be so depressed now.
But this does not affect her pride as a teacher in the slightest, and Tatsuma's emphasis on life is exactly what every medical ninja should have?
Orochimaru watched the changes in the people around him and didn't say anything more, but he still stared at Tatsuma for a long time before finally sighing.
He didn't know if Tatsuma was too young or if he already knew what he meant by those words, but Tatsuma kept saying them in a way that seemed perfect and rekindled the emotions of his companions.
But Tatsuma faintly pointed the source of the trouble to the upper echelons of the village, but Tatsuma handled it quite well, without saying it, and not even leaving obvious hints.
But in this case, he Orochimaru could hear that something was wrong, how could those high-level Konoha executives who had been with these people all day not be able to hear it? I hope that this time the words will not be passed on.
Seeing that Orochimaru shook his head and lowered his head again, Jiraiya pushed him, and said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't what Tatsuma said wrong?" Stinky snakes. ”
"Shut up."
Orochimaru was in no mood to pay attention to Jiraiya, if it wasn't for the rope tree sitting next to him, he would even have to say the "crane tail".
Obviously, these words should be pointed, and since I have to turn them out again, isn't this causing trouble for Chenma?
Jiraiya had never seen Orochimaru's attitude, although he instinctively wanted to continue arguing, but looking at Orochimaru's eyes full of warnings, Jiraiya still opened his mouth and chose to close.
After resting for a while, Tatsuma received instructions from Tsunade to examine the wounds, change the dressing, or treat the wounded.
Previously, it was only a simple treatment on the battlefield, and Tsunade even focused most of his energy on treating Yushinobi, so there were still a lot of wounded in the camp.
Chenma naturally won't refuse, don't say he doesn't mind, even if he doesn't want to, he will carry it out, after all, he just said a lot of beautiful things, if he doesn't practice it, it will be too funny.
"Ahem~"
Just as Tatsuma was examining the wounded, the three of Yahiko also woke up, and when they saw the situation around them, the three of them immediately became nervous.
The body that was stretched out by Chen Ma Shu also subconsciously curled up, and even moved closer to each other, looking around vigilantly.
Seeing this, the surrounding Konoha ninjas did not move and gave the three children a way out, which is considered a . The few kindnesses they can give to these three children is to let them go.
And the three children also quickly discovered this road, they nervously grabbed the raincoats on the ground, and then helped each other out of the cave, it was still raining outside, almost as soon as they walked out, they were drenched, and they also saw a river in front of them.
For a moment, the memories before the coma also recalled, they seemed to have been blown off the cliff by the ninja and fell into the water, thinking of the river, the orange-haired Yahiko couldn't help but murmur:
"They couldn't have saved us, would they?"
At this time, Yahiko couldn't help but continue to look into the cave, and found that the cave didn't seem to be as dangerous as he imagined, and the ninja of Konoha was just sitting in place, or eating dry food and drinking water, or resting.
Some were also undergoing healing, looking at the figure who was healing the ninja, Yahiko's eyes lit up, he recognized this Konoha ninja who looked only a few years older than them, especially powerful!
"Goo~"
"Goo~"
"Goo~"
But at this time, Yahiko's stomach rang, and after not eating for a long time, they were filled with a stomach full of water, and the water was poured out again, and they were already hungry.
After Yahiko's stomach rang, the stomachs of the other two also sounded like an ensemble.
Nagato lowered his head, pulled Rayahiko, and said, "Let's go first." ”
Yahiko nodded, but his footsteps did not move, and after a while, just as Nagato and Konan were about to ask again, Yahiko suddenly said, "I have a way, you guys are waiting here." ”
"Yahiko!"
Seeing Yahiko actually walking towards the cave, Xiao Nan was so frightened that he was about to exclaim, but as soon as he spoke, he was stopped by Nagato, Xiao Nan felt the coldness and trembling of Nagato's hand, and also held it, and then looked at Yahiko's back nervously.
Yahiko swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and under the gaze of more and more Konoha ninjas, he walked step by step towards the three people in the middle of the cave, who seemed to have the highest status.
He also knew that even if the three of them besieged a Hanzo, they couldn't defeat him, and the three who looked weaker still gave Yahiko more courage to approach than to contact the "powerful" Tatsuma.
Orochimaru stood up directly, squinting at Yahiko who was getting closer, Yahiko swallowed another mouthful of saliva, took two steps forward again, and opened his eyes, looking at Jiraiya, who had chewed the dry food for a long time and didn't swallow.
This person seemed to be friendly, although the big sister didn't seem to have malicious intentions, but she didn't look up, and there was no food in her hand.
Jiraiya looked at each other with Yahiko, and even began to smack, obviously it was dry food, but he ate the feeling of a feast, and in the end, Orochimaru couldn't stand it, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What are you going to do?" ”
Yahiko stretched out his hand towards Jiraiya and said, "Divide the food with me." ”
Very impolite tone, but Yahiko was extremely apprehensive in his heart, he knew that begging might be more likely to get food, but he wanted to see what kind of person the Konoha ninja was.
After all, he had thought about taking Xiaonan and Nagato to learn from the ninjas of Konoha, and if the ninjas of Konoha were fierce, then he would give up this idea.
"What about your parents?"
Jirai didn't get angry, but looked at this child, who was not lacking in courage like himself, and asked, Yahiko gave an answer that Jiraiya had guessed a long time ago: "They died in the war of the ninjas." ”
Hearing this, the Konoha ninjas around him, who had become dissatisfied because of Yahiko's attitude, were also discouraged at this time, and continued to be silent, Jiraiya stopped chirping, handed over the dry food in his hand, and said:
"Take it."
Yahiko didn't take it immediately, but put down his hand, turned around and said, "Nagato, Konan, come here, they don't look like bad people." ”
Seeing Nagato and Konan coming over, Yahiko breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and Jiraiya did not take back the hand he handed out, but continued to ask, "Did their family also die in the war?" ”
As the words came out, Xiao Nan lowered his head sadly, Nagato stopped, Yahiko quickly nodded and said, "Hmm." ”
After speaking, he took the dry food, approached Xiao Nan and Nagato, and the three of them quietly ate the dry food in the cave, Chen Ma threw his kettle towards the water gate, and the water gate nodded, and also removed his own kettle.
When he approached the three of them, he obviously felt that the three of them were nervous again, but the gentle smile of the water gate, which was like the sun and was especially rare in the land of rain, dissolved the tension of the three of them.
Rope Tree also walked over, put down his kettle, and then turned away, continuing to leave the space for the three of them.
In the cave, Konoha's ninjas also "ignored" the three of them, and only after Tatsuma checked everyone and reported to Tsunade did Konoha's team set off again.
Unlike rushing in the rainforest when they came, on the way back, they chose the road, and when the three Yahiko saw the Konoha team leaving, they also quickly finished eating the dry food and chased after them.
Because the return was not in a hurry, and there were many wounded, the team was not moving fast, and the three of them could barely keep up, but the three of them kept following, and some people gradually became dissatisfied.
The grumpy Tsunade stopped, turned his head to look at the three of them, and asked dissatisfiedly, "The food is also given to you, what else do you want?!" ”
Hearing this, the three of them became nervous again, but the little girl took the lead in relaxing, stepped forward in two steps, presented a paper flower to the three of them, and said, "Thank you." ”
Seeing this, the dissatisfaction on Tsunade's face disappeared, and he became very embarrassed, and even a little at a loss, but he touched Xiao Nan's head and said, "It's okay, but if it's okay, don't keep up."
We are ninjas and can be in danger at any time. ”
Yahiko stepped forward at this time and said, "We want to learn ninjutsu at least to have the ability to change something in the future." ”
Hearing this, Orochimaru pursed his lips and wanted to suggest killing them, but when he thought of Tatsuma's words before, he endured it and didn't say anything.
Jiraiya looked around, the country of rain that was in disarray, and said, "Orochimaru, you and Tsunade take everyone back first, and I'll stay and take care of them for a while." ”
"What?"
Tsunade asked puzzled, and Jiraiya said, "What do I want to do, such as accompanying them to be able to be self-reliant, even if it's compensation, just like Tatsuma said. But do good deeds, don't ask about the future. ”
Then, he smiled, looked at the three of them, and said, "Do you want to learn from me?" ”
Jilai didn't say that he would learn ninjutsu, and he didn't plan to teach the three of them ninjutsu, if he wanted to change something, he didn't have to rely on ninjutsu, but Yahiko hesitated at this time, and turned his head to look at Tatsuma who had been thinking about something with a frown.
With his mouth open and closed, Yahiko said, "Then that, we want to learn from powerful ninjas." ”
"Huh? I'm a powerful ninja. ”
Jiraiya pointed at himself and said anxiously, but Yahiko's eyes glanced at Tatsuma again, and even Konan and Nagato couldn't help but divert their gaze.
Following the gaze of the three of them, the corners of Jiraiya's eyes twitched, and he felt as if something was wrong.
Is it sincere?
