Chapter 92 Yahiko, Nagato, Konan
Da da da……
The rain hit the eaves, making a crisp sound.
The wind was howling outside the window, and an electric lamp was hanging quietly on the ceiling, emitting a faint light.
A young boy was lying on a bed, and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl with light blue-purple hair and paper flowers was sitting at the head of the bed.
The young man was none other than Haneda, and the one guarding the bedside was Konan.
cough cough...
The boy spat out several mouthfuls of water and his eyes opened slightly.
Xiaonan's familiar yet unfamiliar face came into view.
"Are you awake? Do you need some water?" Xiaonan asked with a smile.
"Who are you?" Haneda looked at the paper flower on the right side of Konan's hair and thought of someone.
The angel of Akatsuki organization——Konan!
"Just call me Xiaonan."
Xiaonan picked up a forehead protector from the bedside table and asked,
"Are you a ninja from Konoha?"
"Do you know Jiraiya-sensei? How is he now?"
Haneda turned his head and looked at Konan.
If an ordinary ninja heard what Konan said, he might have taken action directly.
It is a taboo for a ninja to have his identity pointed out.
But Haneda knew clearly that Konan was kind.
He nodded slightly and pretended to be curious:
"Are you Jiraiya-sama's student?"
Seeing that Konan admitted it, Haneda then said, "He is currently mentoring Minato-senpai and is also writing a book."
"I see..." Xiaonan seemed to be lost in beautiful memories, and the smile on her face became even wider.
At this moment, there was the sound of a door being pushed open outside the house, and at the same time a sunny and cheerful voice came over.
"Xiao Nan, how is the child we picked up from the river?"
Two people walked in, and the one who spoke cheerfully was Yahiko.
He has orange hair and wears a Yuyin forehead protector on his forehead. He always has a sunny and cheerful smile on his face. He looks very optimistic and confident.
Following behind Yahiko was a shy boy with his eyes covered by red hair.
He lowered his head, as if intentionally covering his eyes with his forehead protector.
Even if Haneda didn't see the Rinnegan, he knew the identity of the visitor - Nagato.
In fact, he, like Nagato, was noticed by Madara and Black Zetsu, and was also a chess piece arranged by them.
"He looks good now. He shouldn't be in danger of death, and he doesn't have any signs of a cold." Xiaonan said with a smile.
"That's good." Yahiko noticed the forehead protector in Konan's hand and asked again,
"By the way, he should be a ninja from Konoha, right?"
"Yeah, Yahiko. He seems to know Jiraiya-sensei."
"Sensei Jiraiya? How is he now? Is he doing well?"
"From what he said, he is teaching students and writing books. He seems to be very free."
……
Konan and Yahiko were chatting, and Nagato just listened the whole time without saying a word.
However, the smile on his face allowed Haneda to see that Nagato was enjoying this moment.
As the two chatted, they brought up the topic of Haneda again.
"By the way, I haven't remembered to ask your name yet. My name is Yahiko, a ninja from Amegakure."
"Haneda, a Genin of Konoha." Haneda was infected by Yahiko's smile and a smile appeared on his face.
But the smile quickly faded.
"Another poor guy injured in the war." Yahiko noticed the gloomy look on Haneda's face and complained.
"I heard that Sunagakure wanted to form an alliance with our village, but fortunately it was rejected by Lord Hanzo." Konan said.
"Ah~ But what Sunagakure is doing is obviously trying to start a war. Konoha's people are now stationed at the border of the Rain Country, facing Sunagakure."
"If a war breaks out, this place might become a battlefield."
Yahiko couldn't help pounding the table when he said this.
"Damn it, sooner or later, we'll achieve peace in the ninja world!"
"Yes, I believe you, Yahiko."
"Me too." Nagato, who had been silent the whole time, also spoke.
Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard outside the house. It was a ninja wearing a Yuyin forehead protector.
He ran in, held the door, and shouted into the house:
"Yahiko, Konan, another vicious ninja attack occurred in Kawahara Ishimura!"
"Looks like we have to go out again, Konan, Nagato, let's go."
Yahiko finished speaking and just walked a few steps when he suddenly realized that there was another person in the room. He turned around and scratched the back of his head awkwardly and said:
"Haha... I almost forgot about you, Haneda."
"Well. You can stay in the house and rest first. If you are hungry, there is bread on the table. You are welcome."
"Okay." Haneda nodded. He had no intention of chatting more with Yahiko and the others.
Take advantage of this alone time to do something.
rustling...
The footsteps gradually faded away.
Haneda climbed up from the bed. Due to his weak body, his chakra only recovered 30%.
But enough is enough.
Hai, Xu, You, Shen, Wei.
"Psychic art!"
He quickly formed five seals, bit his finger, smeared it with blood, and then pressed his palm to the ground.
A yellow and orange cat was channeled over.
"You look very embarrassed, Haneda." said the orange cat.
"Injured, just pulled out of the river."
Haneda spoke briefly, then he picked up the pen and paper on the table, wrote something, folded it up, and handed it to Xiaoju.
"Please help me deliver this information to the Uchiha clan, thank you. I will buy you a can of dried fish when I get back."
"Really? Then I won't be polite!" Xiaoju's eyes lit up and she immediately bit the folded paper with her mouth.
Haneda also lifted the summoning technique at this time.
After finishing his work, he looked at the empty house and was distracted for a moment.
After a long while, Haneda came to his senses. He walked to the dining table, picked up a piece of bread, and started eating it bite by bite.
He once again recalled Uncle Sakumo.
"Facing Sasori and Kakuzu, two Kage-level warriors... Uncle Sakumo, with your swordsmanship, you should be able to win, right?"
Haneda knew the answer vaguely in his heart, but he still held on to a glimmer of hope.
Until Xiaoju's reply comes, he will always believe that the man standing in front of him will survive.
As for the time when Xiaoju will arrive in Konoha, the earliest will be tonight and the latest will be tomorrow morning.
After finishing the bread in his hand, Haneda felt even hungrier.
He ate a few more pieces of bread and roasted a big fish using fire escape technique, and only then did his hunger disappear.
The feeling of fullness warmed his stomach and intestines, and the Sage Body began to take effect, quickly restoring Haneda's body and chakra.
"It should take a day to fully recover, right?"
Haneda thought uncertainly and glanced out the window.
The heavy rain was still pouring down, and the big raindrops hit the eaves, making a dull sound.
"What's the point of rushing back?"
"Uncle Sakumo's life or death will not change because I go back."
"Besides...I guess my coming here was arranged by Madara and Black Zetsu."
"Why not follow their thoughts during this time and try to contact Nagato and the others."
"If you can get a favorable impression, it will be even better."
Haneda sat back on the bed, looking out the window at the heavy rain that seemed to never stop.
