Chapter 194 The Hungry Boy Feeding the Cat
What Haneda didn't expect was that Zabuza was still following him on the way to Sanbongi town.
You know, the strength he casually displayed on the road was enough to kill Zabuza dozens of times.
But Zabuza still followed him.
Haneda didn't quite understand, but it didn't matter.
Zabuza is not his target, and he can also instantly defeat him using Flying Thunder God.
Haneda just let it go.
During his childhood, before Bai's Ice Escape ability was revealed, he lived in a small town where it snowed all year round.
And even when he was wandering and begging, it was in places where it was snowing.
Based on this, Haneda could roughly determine that Bai should be in a village or town where it snowed all year round.
This is also the reason why he came to Sanbongi town specifically.
Suddenly, Haneda sensed a breath that was different from water chakra and wind chakra.
This power is similar to the chakra he fused with ice escape when he used the All-Seeing Power.
"I'm very lucky today."
Haneda came to a corner and saw a ragged child rummaging through a pile of garbage.
It was not until he found a piece of bread that had been gnawed and was blackened with dirt that a smile appeared on the child's pale face.
He picked up the bread carefully and was about to feed it when a skinny black cat looked at the child longingly.
"Are you hungry too?"
The child stroked the black cat's hair and tore half of the bread to feed it.
"I'm sorry, that's all I have."
The kid said apologetically.
The black cat took the bread and left. The child watched the black cat leave and whispered:
"Did I give too little..."
The child squatted down silently and tore the bread in half again, but the black cat still left.
He had no choice but to swallow the bread on the ground and the bread in his hand together.
A person was standing alone on the street, staring blankly at the black cat leaving.
"Your physical condition is not optimistic. You are so hungry that you are just skin and bones."
The child heard the voice and looked up. It was a young man with long black hair, wearing a white shirt and a knife on his waist.
The young man was staring at him intently.
"Are you concerned about me, Mr. Warrior?"
The child said expectantly.
It had been a long time since anyone had spoken to him, and the only companions he had were the stray cats and mice on the street.
But most of the time, there aren't even any mice.
"Why would you share your remaining food with the cat even though you are so hungry?"
"Those wild cats won't even thank you for the food."
Haneda walked up to the child, looked into his innocent and pretty eyes and said.
"I, I just want to help it...it needs me too."
The child stammered.
No one had spoken to him for a long time. He was so excited and worried that he forgot how to speak fluently.
I had no choice but to speak out everything that was in my heart.
"What's your name?"
Haneda wasn't entirely sure if the child in front of him was Shiro, so he asked.
"Bai, my name is Bai." Bai answered carefully.
"Come with me, your bloodline limit can help me, I need you."
Haneda rubbed his white hair. He felt the dirt on his hands and wondered whether to go to the bathhouse first or to the hotel.
"Mr. Warrior, what's your name?" Bai asked in a low voice.
"Haneda, Uchiha Haneda."
Haneda stood up, clapped his hands, the grease and dirt on his hands fell off, and said to Bai,
"Also, I'm a ninja from Konoha, not a samurai."
"Let's go, I'll take you to have a meal and take a bath first."
Haneda walked towards the nearest hotel.
"Yes, Mr. Haneda!"
Bai followed with excitement, his steps becoming lighter and more cheerful.
Mr. Haneda was the first one to say that he was needed!
And he is a powerful ninja, so I am not afraid of his power!
Haneda walked into the hotel with Shiro.
At first, the restaurant owner did not welcome Bai, but when he saw the piles of silver bills, he felt pity for the poor Bai.
Bai could sense the change in the boss's attitude, and he asked curiously:
"Mr. Haneda, why can't that person hate me anymore after he hated me?"
Haneda Smile explained:
"Like the cat you just fed."
"The cat is hungry and needs food, and you have it, so it's happy to approach you even if it doesn't like you."
“And the same thing goes for money.”
"Love can be conquered by money. Of course, this is limited to ordinary people."
"Is it like Mr. Haneda needs me, so he's willing to get close to me?" Bai asked with her beautiful big eyes.
Haneda glanced at the expectant little eyes and smiled: "You can think so now."
Bai keenly grasped the current word and secretly made up his mind:
"I must always be needed by Mr. Haneda, for sure!"
In fact, what Haneda said now was not just referring to ice escape.
He just felt that if he spent more time with Bai, he might develop other feelings for her.
Shiro has a very gentle personality, somewhat similar to Minato.
Haneda was touched when Bai was feeding the cat.
He liked this pretty kid.
The restaurant owner brought the food that Haneda ordered.
One plate after another, the table was almost full.
Bai smelled the fragrance of the food and swallowed his saliva.
He wanted to eat it very much, but he was afraid that if he moved his mouth, it would disgust Mr. Haneda.
So he held the chopsticks and didn't move.
"Why, don't you like these dishes?"
Haneda noticed Bai and asked with a smile.
Actually, these dishes were specially prepared by him for Baidian.
It was still a long way from dinner time, so Haneda wasn't very hungry.
"They are all my favorite foods. As long as Mr. Haneda orders them, I like them." Bai Dao.
"Then eat it, I ordered all this for you."
"Really?" Bai looked up at Haneda, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes unconsciously.
No one else had been so good to him except his deceased mother.
"Eat quickly, or eat slowly, or you will choke." Haneda said with a smile.
"Yes, Mr. Haneda!"
Bai ate the food voraciously as he was so hungry.
But thinking of Mr. Haneda's instructions, he overcame his body's impulse and ate slower.
Mr. Haneda's explanation reminded him of his mother.
Every time we eat, my mother always tells us...
Tears ran down Bai's cheeks, and he burst into tears as he ate.
Haneda looked at Shiro and recalled his experiences in the Land of Waves and the Land of Rain.
There are many unemployed people in the Land of Waves. It is difficult for the lower-class people to survive, not to mention those who are hungry.
The Rain Kingdom and the Water Kingdom are similar, the former is often affected by wars, while the latter is in chaos caused by the blood mist policy.
Bai is similar to Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan, all of them are poor homeless children.
Noticing Haneda's thoughtful look, Bai asked curiously:
"Mr. Haneda, do you have any worries?"
Haneda glanced at Bai and said:
"Yeah, even though it has nothing to do with me, I always want to change it."
Bai said firmly:
"Then I will definitely help Mr. Haneda to change!"
