After saying this coldly, Itachi took the lead, while the ghost shark who followed him shook his head slightly, and then followed in the footsteps of his own kind. Very curious about what half of the story is.
And in the country of Chuan, in a cave.
"Hey~ Brother Scorpion, have you rested? It seems that the procrastinator has become you recently. Well!"
It was another blond young man wearing a red cloud cloak on a black background who said these words. The high ponytail and the blindfold on his left eye made him look particularly refreshing, but at the moment that face was frowning because of a trace of impatience and curiosity. .
"No Road Race, Deidara, I'm looking for inspiration for new works."
Next to the fire in the cave sat a red-haired youth. Like Deidara, he was also wearing the black-bottomed red cloud cloak organized by Xiao. These two are the 'Jade Girl' Red Sand Scorpion and the 'Blue Dragon' Deidara in the Xiao organization. The former is Shayin Village's S-level rebellion, and the latter is Yanyin Village's S-level rebellion.
In Scorpion's hands, he was holding a collection of paintings. Judging from the cover, it was the first edition of "Fox Story" that was exactly the same as the one captured by the ghost shark.
"Huh? Speaking of which, brother Scorpio, have you been addicted recently? You've been holding that broken book all day, eh!"
Seeing that Scorpion still didn't mean to move, Deidara, who was dazzling, had to walk back into the cave again, and then sat down beside Scorpion. As a ninja who also pursues art, he is indeed a little curious about books that can attract scorpions: "Is this book that good? Huh?"
"Shut up and see for yourself."
Staring at the blond fox fairy in the book, the scorpion's brown eyes reflected the light of the bonfire, as if it were burning.
"Haha? This blonde with big breasts? I can't tell that Big Brother Scorpion likes this look, but Big Brother Scorpion? Is your body still good? Well?"
Curiously looking at the pages along Scorpion's gaze, Deidara couldn't help but glance at his partner. As the ultimate puppet master, this partner's body is no longer human, but now he is interested in a woman. It's really fun.
"Are you Baga? It seems that the estrus season is coming? To have such a childish thought."
He didn't care about Deidara's teasing, and the scorpion's eyes did not hide a different kind of fanaticism: "Look carefully, she is not a human being, she is a fox demon that has survived for a thousand years. But... ..even after so many years, she is still beautiful and full of youth...is that the biggest difference between youkai and humans?"
"Hmm~ So it's not human, that kind of monster with infinite life and youth, no wonder Brother Scorpion is interested, eh."
Only then did Deidara understand why the scorpion was attracted. As a puppet master who pursues 'eternity', the scorpion is an out-and-out 'eternal control'. The fox fairy in the book is not a human with only a hundred years of life. It's a young and beautiful monster that has been through thousands of years, so it's no wonder that Scorpion is interested.
"Okay, let's go."
Just when Deidara was also looking at the album beside Scorpion with relish, the latter suddenly closed the page and stood up, which made Deidara suddenly dissatisfied: "Hey, hey, brother Scorpion, I just saw the excitement. Well."
"This book is only the first issue, and it's been a month since its release. In other words, other new editions should have been released long ago, so I should go and collect them."
Sitting lightly in his puppet Fei Liuhu, Scorpion's voice became particularly dull after passing through the puppet: "If you want to read it yourself, just find a copy yourself. I remember that there is a medium-sized town nearby. "
Hearing Scorpion say this, Deidara also reacted, and then tapped her hand excitedly.
"Oh~ it looks like this, good! Then let's go and collect it, I'm bored, um~!"
Fate (1)
Half a month passed in a blink of an eye. Even for Hinata, the changes that took place during this period made her feel a little strange. It was a feeling of 'being integrated into this world'.
The hair is getting longer.
Hinata, who was sitting in front of the mirror, looked at her current appearance with a rare look. Although she already knew what this character called 'Hinata Hinata' was like when she was watching anime, but after she crossed over the nearly four-year-old. Within a month, the shadows that belonged to the original Hinata were still erased.
Not only the choice of clothes has changed, but the girl's hair has also fallen from short hair to her shoulders, her thin cherry lips are subconsciously clenched, and her white eyes are sharp because of the different curvature of the eye sockets. Aggressive feeling.
It is now April in Naruto World, and the weather has begun to gradually warm up. In the middle of June, the ninjutsu school will hold the graduation exam, which means that in two months, the students including Hinata will be able to Become a real stubborn.
"It's like a mandatory role-playing game, but at least the plot is under my control now. Well, at least I hope...that's it."
Close to the mirror, Hinata carefully watched the face of the white-eyed girl in the mirror. She had not forgotten the inexplicable sleepwalking experience half a month ago. Although Ino said that this was just a normal situation of overwork, Hinata instinctively. Don't trust her words.
But obviously there is no time to deal with it now, so we can only talk about it later.
Today should be regarded as a special day for Hinata, because according to the deadline, the three gloves custom-made at Tiantian Ninja House have been completed, and the final payment of the last batch has been handed over after the remuneration has been received. Now is the time to pick up your shipment and verify that your plan was successful along the way.
As a diligent girl, Tian Tian was a little nervous today, looking at the three brand new ninja boxes on the counter in front of her, which made her a little uneasy.
There is naturally a reason for this, because this is probably the first large-scale transaction that has reached a transaction value of one million taels so far every day. Although the balance has been paid in full a few days ago, what we need to do now is only when the other party arrives. It's fine to deliver the goods, but because of the large amount of money involved, the Ninjaya girl who has just turned 13 years old is very nervous.
Under this apprehension, a slightly indifferent female voice finally rang at the door of the ninja house: "Guian, I'm here to receive the three pairs of ninjas that were custom-made half a month ago."
When Hinata stepped into the ninja house, she simply stated her intentions, and was startled instinctively, and Tiantian hurriedly stood up straight: "Ah! Hi! Here, your custom-made three pairs of ninja gloves!"
Saying that, Tian Tian hurriedly opened the three ninja boxes in front of him, and then pushed them to the front of the counter, so that it would be easier for his distinguished guest to check.
Hinata stepped forward and carefully looked at the ninja tools in the box, wanting to see what the expensive ninja tools that she had been waiting for for half a month and cost a million taels in total looked like.
There is no doubt that it is a pair of gloves full of metal texture. It seems to be directly woven with fine metal wires, and then covered with armor pieces on the back of the hand and fingers, which looks a bit like the hand guards of medieval cavalry. A, there is a strong and icy aura on the whole, it seems to be announcing that it is not a clothing used to keep warm and cold, but a murder weapon that can tear flesh to see blood.
"Very good... This is indeed very fine workmanship."
Taking out the gloves in the middle box, Hinata looked at the extremely long arm guards at the back of the gloves with admiration. Obviously, this was to make the gloves cover the user's hands firmly and not fall off, but the arm guards and The gloves are also not bulky enough to hide under the sleeves and not be seen.
"Hey, the craftsmen in the country of craftsmen say that this is their best work recently. Are you satisfied?"
Seeing that Hinata seemed to feel good about gloves, Tiantian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The girl took the initiative to stretch out her hand to help Hinata hold the gloves and put on the middle pair of gloves, while saying softly: "Because The craftsmen say that your arms will continue to grow, so there is a certain amount of expansion and contraction space inside the glove, and if you feel loose, you can adjust it with the **** on the arm armor."
"Oh, it's a very thoughtful design, tell them for me, and say I'm very satisfied."
After moving her gloved right hand, Hinata carefully felt the feedback from her arm. Although the gloves are made of pure metal, they are unexpectedly not too heavy. It is probably due to the special composition of the metal equipment, and the fine internal structure has no burr feeling at all. It is indeed quite delicate and carefully crafted.
"Then, can you sign here? If you have no other questions."
He happily took out the receipt on the side, and Tian Tian's face was flushed with excitement. If it is done successfully, then she can show it off later. After all, at the age of 13, she can make a big list of one million taels alone, which is indeed something to be proud of.
"Don't worry, lovely clerk, we haven't verified its specific effect yet."
Spreading out her right hand, Hinata's white eyes shrank slightly, then, now should be the most important part, that is: whether she can visualize the fire attribute chakra in her body through the pair of ninja gloves.
The hellish iron sand training, plus the past half month, has lasted for fifty days. During this time, only she can accurately describe the pain Hinata has endured.
It was like stretching his hands into hell. Even Hinata can still clearly recall that feeling. The skin was dissolved by the high temperature, the muscles were scorched black under the licking of the flames, and even the bones of the fingers were scorched. You can feel the feeling of being roasted.
"Miss clerk, do you know the smell of fire?"
Looking at her open palm, Hinata's white eyes shrank slightly, the muscles in her right arm tensed slightly, chakra began to flow into her palm quickly under the control of consciousness, and the gloves she was wearing also suddenly sent out a subtle The beep sounded, it was like a shotgun being loaded with ammunition and began to rapidly absorb the chakra from the wearer's body, and the scene above Hinata's palm also appeared a little distorted, which was when the high-temperature airflow rushed up. caused by natural phenomena.
"Ah? Ha, you mean, the smell of barbecue or something?"
Tian Tian swallowed nervously. Although she tried hard to relax her expression, the pressure on her from this strange white-eyed girl in front of her was stronger than ever before. She could even feel the room temperature around her rising slightly. , and the source of the heat is the right hand of the white-eyed girl.
"Well~ you're talking about the smell of food, not the smell of fire. But I know that the smell of fire is burning pain, struggle, resistance, anger, and..."
Hinata's tone suddenly increased in the last sentence, and her right arm also suddenly increased the chakra output towards her palm, spewing out like the last word: "Power!"
Bang! ! !
It was like the sound of hot air bursting suddenly, and the intense firelight made Tian Tian's eyes shrink suddenly, which made the clerk girl subconsciously scream, and at the same time she involuntarily took a few steps back before she managed to calm down.
