Chapter 12 Satisfied
Chapter 12 Satisfied
Needless to say, during the journey, with Minato by his side, Shinichi didn't worry about any safety issues at all. Although Minato had not yet won the title of "Yellow Flash", he actually already had the corresponding strength. If the group of rocks at this time If the hidden ninja dares to chase after him, then whoever comes will really die.
Shinichi lay on Minato's back, thinking of only one thing - why did Konoha send Minato to save him?
The most obvious reason is the relationship between Konoha and the Uzumaki clan. For this reason, it is not surprising that Konoha came to save Shinichi. After all, Konoha ninjas still have the mark representing the Uzumaki clan on the back of their clothing.
However, Shinichi is afraid that Konoha will come to save him with some strange purpose, so he must not do it. To be honest, six months of escape experience has made Shinichi completely disgusted with fighting and killing. , go to Konoha, and be an extremely ordinary ninja, or even become a civilian, wouldn't it be good?
Well...for Shinichi, it's pretty good.
......
Soon, with the help of Flying Thunder God, Minato returned to Konoha with Shinichi and Saigo in less than 10 minutes.
This speed can be said to be shocking to Shinichi and Caigou, and Shinichi's eyes started to heat up.
This is so useful!And with this thing, you don’t have to worry about your life in the future, you can still escape if you can’t beat him!
However, after thinking about his talent, Shinichi extinguished the enthusiasm in his heart. Even practicing ordinary swordsmanship is extremely difficult, let alone a genius-specific ninjutsu like Flying Thunder God?
"arrive!"
Minato led him to the door of a room, which looked familiar to Shinichi. If he remembered correctly, it should be outside the door of the Hokage's office.
"Dong dong dong! Hokage-sama, I brought that child back!"
"Ah, come in."
Minato opened the door and walked in. Then, as soon as he entered, he was complained crazily.
The Third Hokage was holding a pipe in his mouth and kept talking.
"Minato, are you deliberately torturing an old man like me? You set off in the morning and are only coming back now. You should be faster. You must let me, an old man, wait until now, you brat!"
Although what he said was a complaint, the tone was more of a joke and he didn't really blame Minato.
Minato lowered his head in embarrassment.
"Um...Hokage-sama, I'm really sorry! It's my subordinate who is incompetent. Regarding this..."
The Third Hokage immediately interrupted Minato.
"Hey, you guys are always serious about things that shouldn't be serious. I was just joking with you just now. You don't have to be serious. Now, let me see the little hero we rescued!"
The Third Hokage stood up and walked slowly to Shinichi's side, a gentle smile appearing on his face.
This Hokage doesn't look like a high-ranking shadow, but more like an old man next door, amiable and approachable.
The wrinkles on his face are far less than what Shinichi remembered, and the beard on his chin is mostly black, with only a few strands of white. His body does not look withered like an old man, but is full of great vigor. !
Shinichi has been on the run for several months, but he has not gained anything. For example, the ability to vaguely judge the strength of the enemy and ourselves is an ability that was forced out through life and death experiences.
At this moment, the third generation stood in front of Shinichi. Although the third generation had completely restrained his momentum, Shinichi still vaguely felt a great momentum contained in the body in front of him.
Seeing that Shinichi was silent for a long time, the Third Hokage first thought for a while, and then the Third Hokage suddenly slapped his head.
"Oh! I'm such an old fool. My body is still fine, but my mind is starting to get stupid? Hahahaha! Little hero, let grandpa apologize to you. I should be squatting down. Why don't I stand and talk to the child? The truth? Confused! Confused! Old fool! Hahaha."
As he spoke, the Third Hokage squatted down and kept his head at the same level as Shinichi's.
Since the height difference between the Third Hokage and Shinichi is slightly larger, if the Third Hokage stands, it will easily cause an inexplicable sense of oppression to Shinichi.
"Um, hello!"
Shinichi didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only say hello briefly.
"Well, hello! My child, you will live in this village next, Konoha. You should have heard of this name, right? Don't worry, the days of running away are over. Next, grandpa will still be with you. This big blond brother next to you, as well as all the ninjas in this village, will protect you! There is no need to be afraid anymore! So, smile, okay?"
The Third Hokage's words were very gentle.
Shinichi was indeed relieved. He came to Konoha really just to find peace, and he wanted nothing more than that.
With a slight smile, he opened his mouth and said.
"Ok, thank you!"
The Third Hokage smiled at Shinichi again, then looked up at Minato.
"Minato, if you don't mind, I would like to place this child in your home first, and then I will find a separate place for him."
Watergate nodded.
"Okay, follow Hokage-sama's instructions! It just so happens that Kushina may also want to come and see this child."
Then, the Third Hokage looked at Shinichi again.
"Child, do you have anything else to say? Just say it! If not, grandpa will ask this big brother to take you to rest."
Shinichi shook his head.
The Third Hokage nodded and stood up.
Minato took Shinichi's hand and walked out the door.
However, at the last moment, when he was about to go out, Shinichi suddenly stopped and turned to look at the third generation.
"I have a question!"
The third generation was slightly stunned and did not speak, but encouraged Shinichi to continue speaking with his eyes.
"Excuse me, why did you call me little hero in the first place?"
Reaching out and touching the beard on his chin, Sandai asked.
"Son, how old are you now?"
"Seven!"
"So, do you know how hard it is to live?"
Shinichi was stunned, this question...
"I know! I know it very well!"
The three generations spoke with admiration.
"That's why I call you little hero! I can find a lot of people who easily commit suicide after falling into desperate situations, but I don't know if I can find people who can still struggle to survive after falling into desperate situations. Listen up, kid, it’s not ugly to struggle to live. It’s the most handsome posture in the world! Death is just a temporary pain, and then it’s over, but living is endless pain. Face the difficulties head on and go straight towards it. Go, you are no one’s hero, you are your own hero! Little hero! You are really amazing and dazzling to have lived till now!”
......
After that, Minato brought Shinichi and Nanago to his home, and after making simple arrangements for Shinichi and Nanago to sleep, Minato left.
In the darkness, Shinichi lay on the soft bed. This peace was something he hadn't seen in a long time!
"Rice dog, are you really not going to come up? The bed is very warm!"
For Shinichi, CaiGou is not just a psychic beast, it is more like a teacher, a guardian, and a relative.
Shinichi wouldn't resist sleeping in the same bed as Nai Gou.
"Hmph! Sleep with you quickly! Master Gou is as strong as iron! Sleeping on the floor is just a trivial matter! And Master Gou is very motivated. Sleep on the floor to train yourself. Do you understand? If I interrupt Master Gou's training again, I'll give you a mouthful!"
CaiGou showed no disdain.
"Then I also sleep on the floor to exercise?"
"Bah! Just you? You don't deserve it! Get Master Gou to sleep on the bed quickly! Otherwise, you are provoking Master Gou's majesty!"
After an argument, Shinichi ended up sleeping on the bed, while Nanago slept on the floor.
That night.
The moon in the sky became brighter and brighter, and Shinichi had completely fallen asleep and entered dreamland.
The dish dog quietly opened its eyes. It stood up carefully, not daring to make a sound. It put its two forelimbs on the edge of the bed and lifted itself up to look at Shinichi.
Just staring blankly, his eyes couldn't stop getting wet.
The usually ferocious vegetable dog now looked like he was being rescued.
Yes, it was rescued!Rescued!
[Ah, two adults, Gouzi... Gouzi lived up to his expectations and brought his young master to a safe place. Gouzi... is satisfied, Gouzi is satisfied!Gouzi will come to see you... Please don't dislike it, you two adults! Gouzi will come to see you right now! 】
Tears flowed down his eyes. The dog looked at Shinichi sleeping peacefully. He was so happy that he was at a loss for words for a moment. His mouth kept trembling, he was satisfied!Really satisfied!
Thinking of this, CaiGou carefully crawled back to the floor. It assumed a peaceful sleeping posture that it had never seen before and fell asleep.
CaiGou is a medical psychic beast, but medical treatment also requires chakra, and unlimited medical treatment is impossible. Along the way, CaiGou used all the chakra to treat Shinichi, so Shinichi can be safe and sound. .
As for CaiGou himself, he has long been scarred, but he hid it very well. Even if he was about to die, he still laughed and laughed, preventing Shinichi from discovering it.
The lethargy every morning is not because CaiGou doesn't want to get up and practice with Shinichi, but because sometimes, it really can't stand up!
My body has already reached its limit, and death is possible every minute and every second.
[Ah, the dog is so sleepy. He was scolded by the young master many times along the way. Tomorrow morning, when the young master fails to wake me up again, he will definitely scold me with a smile until the dog is scolded. Until you wake up.now it's right!now it's right!Young master, don't cry!Want to laugh!You are safe!You are safe!Gouzi... Gouzi should return to those two adults. 】
"A dog can't change eating shit!"
"Are you a dog or a pig?"
"Rice dog, don't sleep! Get up and practice with me!"
"Singles!"
The voices of the past gradually appeared in Cai Gou's mind. At that time, his body kept warning him not to move anymore!Can't move anymore!stop!stop! !Will die!Will die! !
But it can't, it heard the voice of the young master, it must get up!No matter how big a warning, ignore it!Ignore it!Ignore them all!
stand up!This body!stand up!
Finally, it jumped up suddenly, endured the pain of death, and roared.
[Who is scolding Mr. Dog? 】
Wait until tomorrow, maybe it won't be able to jump up and respond to its young master, right?Obviously you will hear the young master's call when the time comes, and you should stand up regardless of everything!Obviously...
Unfortunately, this body no longer allows it...
Doctors don't heal themselves!
I have been able to hold on until now with one breath, and now, after seeing that Shinichi is safe, I am relieved!
My eyelids slowly drooped, my limbs began to lose strength, and I couldn't stand up anymore!
The light gradually fades away...
[I really want to... really want to... take another look at the young master?By the way, I...what is my name?Have you forgotten that your brain has started to shut down?But... not bad!fine!I still remember his appearance, I still remember his name... Uzumaki Shinichi... um...]
His eyelids drooped completely, and everything fell into darkness.
The bright moonlight shines in from the window and shines on the cabbage's black fur, making it peaceful and beautiful.
