Chapter 269: Eat it if you want to avenge your men

[Hmm... What happened? I should have died from that terrifying slash...]

Ai woke up slowly and was a little confused about the current situation for a moment.

After waking up, he was still lying in the same position as before, but his injuries seemed to have been treated simply by someone.

The nobles of the Kingdom of Thunder had already withdrawn, leaving only a burly figure standing quietly in front, blocking a large area of ​​the already weak sunlight.

"...Did you save this old man?"

After a long silence, Ai spoke slowly.

He was sure that he was not dead, because if he was in the Pure Land at this moment, there was no reason why he would not see the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village who had died under Xiaodi's artillery fire before.

Plus the clear pain in my body at this moment...

Although Ai has never died, I think people who are dead should not feel pain, right?

The person on the other side did not speak, but just walked towards Ai step by step;

As he got closer, the familiar face grew larger and larger in Ai's pupils and became clearer and clearer.

"Father?!"

Ai couldn't help but doubt his previous judgment.

Could it be that he really came to the Pure Land at this moment? !

Otherwise, why would he see his father who had died many years ago, the Raikage, the jonin of the Hidden Cloud Village, at this time and place...

[It turns out that dead people also feel pain~]

The father and son met again after many years. Ai, who didn't know how to explain to his father that his momentary impulse caused heavy casualties among the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village, did not notice anything wrong with the Fourth Raikage.

For example, the Third Raikage's gaze was dull and without a trace of emotion;

For example... there were faint cracks all over his old face and even his entire body, like broken porcelain.

After moving his lips several times, Ai finally closed his eyes and said these words to the Third Raikage through gritted teeth.

"I'm sorry, father, I'm not a qualified Raikage... I screwed up, and it's me who ruined our village."

Ai's heartfelt confession did not receive any response from the Third Raikage.

The breeze blew on his face, and the suffocating feeling it brought made Ai Bei, who was lying on the ground with serious injuries, feel tormented.

At this moment, Ai really hopes that the Third Raikage can respond to his confession~

Even if he was scolded, beaten, or even killed again... it would be better for him than the current situation.

"……Father?"

Ai couldn't help but open his eyes and found that the Third Raikage had been standing less than one meter away from him from beginning to end without making any movements.

The Third Raikage looked ahead, but Ai was sure that his father was not looking at him, or even at anything in front of him;

Because the Fourth Raikage's gaze was extremely empty, his scattered pupils never focused on any one point from beginning to end.

"Don't shout. He can't answer you now."

Suddenly, a somewhat childish voice came from behind, which shocked Ai. He couldn't help but raise his voice and shouted.

"Who?!"

Ai knew that even though he was seriously injured at the moment, not just any cat or dog could avoid his perception and come behind him silently...

Ai didn't even know how long this guy had been standing behind him!

Naruto ignored Ai's questioning. He took a step forward, stepped over Ai's head, and slowly walked in front of the Third Raikage.

“Although this old guy is still conscious, all his actions are under my control at this moment.

If you don’t believe me, look…”

Snapped! ! !

Naruto raised his hand and slapped the Third Raikage hard in the face. The Third Raikage's head exploded instantly and then quickly returned to its original shape, with no change in his expression.

"asshole!!!"

Ai's eyes were red with anger, and the wound on his chest burst again due to extreme anger. The scarlet blood quickly stained the bandages wrapped around his body.

"who are you?!"

God knows how much Ai wanted to rush up and twist Naruto's head off at this moment, but the injuries on his body made it so difficult for him to even lift a finger.

"Don't worry about who I am, because I will definitely let you know before you die."

Naruto turned around and shrugged, saying nonchalantly.

"But before that... let me tell you this:

Hidan, I sent him!

I took in the nobles of the Land of Thunder!

I have ordered all your men to be executed!

Even the person who stabbed you before was someone I managed to call over!"

Ai: (???) ...(▼皿▼#) Fuck! ! !

"asshole!

What kind of hatred do I have with you? !

Are you going to such great lengths to harm me and the village behind me?!"

The thin bandages could no longer stop Ai's injuries from worsening, and the blood gushing out of his body dyed the land beneath him red.

“I know you’re excited, but don’t get excited yet.

With your physical condition, you should be able to survive for another three minutes, but if you continue to be so excited... I guess you won't even last a minute.

Come, take a deep breath~

Don't worry, as long as you don't die, you can always get the answer from me."

Seeing that Ai was about to kill himself, Naruto seemed more anxious than himself.

"You want to ask what kind of hatred we have...

There is so much hatred between us!

As for what kind of hatred it is... I don't want to tell you yet."

"My original plan was to have this old guy, your father, personally send you off after you woke up.

But now I suddenly changed my mind.

Some things are better to be done by yourself.

so……"

huh~

Naruto snapped his fingers and accurately flicked the object in his hand into Ai's mouth.

Ai was about to spit the thing out of her mouth when she heard Naruto continue.

"I'm too lazy to take advantage of you,

If you want to avenge your men, just eat him. This thing can heal your injuries in an instant.

From now on, in order to settle the feud between you and me... please use all your strength to fight me.

Right now, right here!

It determines who is superior... and who lives or dies!"

When Ai heard this, he immediately swallowed what was in his mouth without hesitation.

As white smoke rose, Ai, whose injuries had healed, tore off the bandages on his body and slowly stood up from the ground with a grim smile on his face.

"Boy, even though I don't know who you are, I will definitely beat you into a pulp...Go to hell!!!"

Ai Miao entered the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, raised his palm blade and chopped down at Naruto's neck without mercy.

"Thunder level!!!"

Seeing this, Naruto smiled slightly, calmly raised his fists, and easily blocked Ai's knife attack.

Immediately afterwards...

"Five times Kaio-ken... fire!!!"
