Chapter 146 Don't Be a Mouth

"Well... Luo Yi, I'll trade you my most important thing..." Hua Huo pouted, aggrieved, "Two pieces of fried pork chops for one beef patty, how about that?"

"Two and a half dollars, no deal. It's so delicious, smack, smack..." Luo Yi poked the little girl's face back with the top of his chopsticks.

"Wow...that's too much. Okay...it's really delicious, smack, smack..." Hanabi compromised.

Duoyouya: “…”

Izumo poked the nurse and said, "Is this the set meal from the hospital cafeteria? Why don't I remember your working meals being so good?"

If sold outside, it would cost at least 160 taels (about 1600 yen).

"This is the special meal that Doctor Luo opened at his own expense. When he's at work, the quality of our meals is obviously improved." The nurse opened the lunch box with gratitude, and inside was the precious cheese eel rice.

The raw materials are fresh seafood delivered by the shipping company a few days ago.

"It's too torturous." Zitie felt a stomachache. Why should he see and smell but not eat such delicious food when he was working day and night until his stomach was bleeding?

"Um, can I have one too?" Izumo asked shamelessly. Eel rice is something that working class people like him can eat whenever they want.

"Okay, okay. Let the restaurant send up another ready-made serving." Luo Yi raised his chopsticks generously.

"It's even more torturous." Zitie felt like his stomach was about to be perforated. "Well, Lao Luo, can I also..."

"No, you can't. When your stomach is bothered, you can only eat a light diet. But you can consider a new cream stew, which tastes pretty good." Doctor Luo did his duty faithfully.

"It's just a stew. Only an idiot would not eat the free meal!" Zitie yelled, and it was unknown whether he did it on purpose or by accident.

Tayuya's silence was deafening.

Since she was defeated in the illusion battle and fell into a coma, she has not eaten a single grain of rice or drunk a single drop of water. If she were an ordinary person, her digestive system would have atrophied long ago; but unfortunately, she is a strong ninja, so after being stimulated by a small amount of smell...

"Gululu——"

My stomach started to protest.

"Is it thundering?" The nurse looked up at the window, thinking that the sheets and quilts hung outside should have been taken back.

"Fuck you! This is a ward. Can you please go out and eat in the cafeteria?" Tayouya roared hungrily to cover up the growling of his stomach.

"As a prisoner, can't you have a little self-awareness?" Izumo, who was eating eel rice at the speed of light, retorted bluntly and burped with satisfaction.

"Stop talking nonsense! Kill me if you have the guts. What's the point of humiliating me like this?" Tayouya was still roaring, and her stomach was roaring along with it.

"Wait a minute? How did I humiliate you?" Zitie asked back.

Afterwards, he also waited for the cream stew set meal sent by the cafeteria. The sweet and rich taste instantly stopped him from complaining. "Isn't this my favorite sweetened mixed vegetable stew? It's great, Lao Luo, you remember all this."

"Hehe...we're all brothers." Luo Yi smiled foolishly to hide his embarrassment.

There is no way he could remember what Zitie likes to eat. This time it's just a blind cat catching a dead mouse.

"Luo Yi, what do I like to eat?" Hua Huo suddenly asked a life-threatening question with a bad look.

"Bananas, milk, and banana milk!" Luo Yi sat up straight and answered immediately.

"You got it right. I'll give you celery as a reward." Hanabi smiled and took his chopsticks, then shoveled all the boiled celery in the vegetable rack into his rice.

Yes, the little girl hates celery because of its bad smell.

"Gulu-Long-"

"Is it really thundering?" The nurse looked up again.

"Ahhh, just kill me!" For the first time, Tayuya felt that being unconscious was better than being awake. If she woke up, she would suffer humiliation.

"Alright, alright, stop messing with her, nurse." Luo Yi felt that it was better to stop joking, so he said hello.

The nurse took out a new lunch box from the cart like a magic trick and placed it at the head of the bed.

"Don't...this is..." Tayouya suddenly felt that she could be a little tougher.

"That's enough. This is what the Fifth Hokage meant." Luo Yi looked at the little girl with a desire to survive. "We are simple folks in Konoha. We won't mistreat prisoners. Just eat with peace of mind. After you finish, the two people outside the door will have some questions for you."

Today, Tayouya can even defeat Zitie who suffers from stomach problems.

"Hmph... then give your Hokage some face! Um... thank you, thank you..." She and her final stubbornness.

"That's not what I want to hear. I prepared the main dishes for tonight's dinner myself, so...does it smell good?"

"…fragrant."

"Speak louder, haven't you eaten?"

"It's so fragrant!"

Tayuya was about to cry.

This guy really stinks, but the dishes he cooks are really delicious.

...

The next day.

The early morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival is the best example of the phrase "clear and crisp autumn weather". The sun is bright but not hot, the environment is neither humid nor dry, and the air is filled with the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus and a variety of ripe fruits.

Neither Kimimaro nor Tayuya thought they would live to this day. The early morning sunshine and dew seemed so precious that they seemed like a luxury.

Survived; but then what?

"Dongdong——"*2

There were knocks on the doors of both patients' wards almost at the same time. It was Naruto who came to visit the patient and the nurse who brought the meals.

Upstairs is…

"Want to chat?"

"…Can."

Downstairs is…

"Want to eat?"

"eat!"

Half an hour later, Luo Yi arrived at the hospital. He first sent the little girl to school, then chose to skip half a day's class to work at the hospital.

It's outrageous, but it's true.

Before he arrived at the door of the upstairs ward and entered, he heard the sound of chatting coming from inside.

"Now that I think about it, you're still pretty awesome. You defeated all of my 500 shadow clones. In terms of physical skills alone, you're even better than that boy with thick eyebrows!" Naruto praised him directly without any unnecessary rhetoric.

By the way, before Luo Yi arrived, they had a brief fight until Shikamaru and Xiao Li came to support them.

"It's because your attack method is too simple. After being seen through, you pose no threat at all. Also, the 'thick-browed boy' you're referring to is that tough physical ninja? He's very powerful." Kimimaro spoke highly of Rock Lee.

It's a pity that he has never experienced drunken boxing, otherwise he would probably look at it differently.

"Hehe, indeed. When you recover, how about teaching me some Taijutsu?" The outgoing Naruto seemed to have realized the saying "There must be a teacher among three people" without realizing it. Whenever he saw a powerful ninja, he wanted to learn a few moves from him/her.

"I'd love to, although you don't seem to be suitable for my 'dance', and..." Kimimaro stopped midway.

"And what?" Naruto couldn't wait to ask as he finally had the chance to get guidance from a strong man.

"And I may never recover... I told you, I'm sick and I don't have much time left." Kimimaro said in a calm tone.

"Oh, don't worry, this is Konoha Hospital. Granny Tsunade is the best medical ninja in the ninja world and she will definitely be able to cure you. Oh, by the way, Luo Yi's medical skills are also very good, he may have a way." Naruto advised optimistically.

He is very good at chatting, and he is also very good at chatting to death.

So Luo Yi was silent for five seconds, then pushed the door open and walked in. "Good morning, both of you. It's time for the daily inspection."

"Oh Luo Yi, we were just about to mention you, about Kimimaro's illness..." Naruto was just worrying about how to continue the topic when the person involved showed up.

"Unfortunately for Naruto, he only has two options." Luo Yi flipped through the medical records without looking away and wrote down today's date.

"What about the other two paths?" Naruto narrowed his eyes. He was best at making choices and could always guess right.

"That is..." Luo Yi said hesitantly.

"Either die of illness or never be able to be a ninja again." Kimimaro answered himself.

"Ah? Ah... Naruto didn't expect both options to be so extreme, "Is it, is it the same as what the examiner Ibiki said, "Be a Genin for life"... a bluff?"

"Unfortunately, my body has been completely corroded. If I don't seal my ninja abilities, I will die without any chance of recourse." Kimimaro could at least accept the implications of the option calmly.

"This, this is such a pity..." Naruto clenched his fists and lowered his head.

It wasn't just a casual regret, but a genuine pity for Kimimaro who had such talent.

"Naruto, if it were you, what would you choose?" Kimimaro suddenly asked for the opinion of his former opponent.

"Ah? As for me," Naruto frowned and thought hard for a long time, "I would rather die than fail to become a ninja..."

Hearing this, Luo Yi's heart was beating wildly. "Don't encourage others blindly, boy. He doesn't have the aura of the protagonist like you."

Naruto suddenly changed his mind, "But I know that Iruka-sensei, Kakashi-sensei, Tsunade-san, and Sakura-san all want me to live well...

"Only if you survive first can there be hope, right?"
