My Hidden Road

Cold light spread, and a long knife was inserted and swaying in front of Nagato and Konan. The two looked at Naoto nervously.

"This is our housework. Please don't interfere, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences." Naoto said coldly.

"It involves Xiao, not you or me."

Nagato casually pulled out a kunai, his slightly longer hair covered his mysterious eyes, and the white paper peeled off Konan's body and folded into shurikens flying around.

Seeing that the situation was about to escalate further, Dabutu hurriedly walked beside Nagato and Konan, turned around and shook his head at Naoto in frustration. He and Jiosuke did not want to leave Akatsuki, even to death, to pursue their own ideals, and besides, there was such a

Multiple partners support each other.

Naoto frowned angrily and said, "Great Buddha, do you also want to do something to me?"

"No, Naoto, you...oh!"

The Buddha said with a sad face: "Why are we so stiff when we just meet? If you have anything to say, we can talk together. Naoto, we haven't seen each other for so long. Do you want everyone to break up on bad terms?"

"I didn't want us to break up on bad terms. I just want you to leave the Akatsuki organization and come with me."

"You?" Hatosuke behind him sneered: "Naoto Saikawa, I thank you for saving me from the battlefield back then, but it is absolutely impossible to escape from Akatsuki. I haven't seen you for several years and you are still good at it. I know you are now

It’s so powerful that you can kill me and the Buddha, but you can’t take away anything except our lives!”

"Then take your life."

Picking up the long knife stuck on the ground, Naoto held the hilt tightly and walked towards Hatosuke. The latter walked forward desperately and raised his chest. The blade of the long knife was pressed against Hatosuke's chest. As long as he took one step forward, it would stab into the heart.

.

"ah!!!"

The Buddha rushed forward with a lunge, holding Naoto's long knife with both hands and holding it against his chest. The sharp blade caused blood to flow from his palms. The Buddha's eyes looked directly at Naoto and became a little red. He forced a smile but it was slightly bitter.

Companions who are regarded as family members are fighting against each other at this moment.

"Naoto, you didn't save my life. If you can use my life to pay for Yusuke's life, okay?"

Jiuzuke also held the blade of the knife and looked at death as if he were dead: "If you kill the Buddha, then kill me too, so that the Buddha and I will have support after death. Anyway, you have never been seen."

"Idiots, idiots, they are all a bunch of stubborn idiots." Naoto muttered, using his palms slightly hard, a black flower bloomed on the chest of the Buddha under the light of the fire.

There was a 'pop' sound, and blood flowed from Naoto's mouth.

Kyoto and Daibutsu looked at Naoto blankly. Behind him, Nagato took a few steps back with his hands stained with blood. Konan immediately protected him behind him. Naoto turned around slowly, pulled out the kunai from his back and threw it on

On the ground.

"Nagato! What are you doing?" Hatosuke was the first to hug Naoto and block the wound with his palm.

"I think he wants to kill you, so..."

The Buddha said with a ferocious face: "Idiot! How could Naoto kill us? He is the eldest brother of the two of us. In the past, even if there was no food, he would let me eat first. For the sake of Jisuke's ideal, he would risk his life to get material relief.

refugee."

"I······"

Konan glared at Nagato to signal him not to speak. "I'm sorry, Nagato didn't mean it. He was just worried about the safety of you two."

"It's not intentional?" Hatosuke roared: "Naoto is almost dead and it's not intentional. When are you going to protect him? When I came, I said you didn't need your protection. You came here on your own initiative. What do you say now?

Not intentional!"

"I'm sorry, I didn't know it would be like this."

Naoto, who was hugged by Yusuke, pushed him away displeased. This small injury was nothing, but this guy Nagato really did it with the attitude of killing himself. He had no enmity with him, and if he was dissuaded

If so, just pull it off. He is really a paranoid and stubborn guy.

He stretched out his hand to wipe the wound on his back. Naoto licked the blood on his fingers and spit out his saliva. His eyes looked at Hatosuke and Daibutsu who were worried about him. On the side, Konan frowned and protected Nagato behind him. The latter hunched his head with a red

hair covering face.

"It's just a minor injury, you can take care of yourself!"

Putting the long sword into the scabbard, Naoto looked back again at Hatosuke, who was reluctant but unable to say anything. He pushed Konan away arrogantly, raised his hand and slapped Nagato. Nagato did not resist the slap, his face was pale.

Palm prints soon appeared on his face. Xiaonan wanted to say something, but she stopped when she saw the blood on Naoto's back.

Only the giant Buddha chased for a few steps: "Naoto, where are you going?"

"Wait to die slowly! You two idiots."

"I said you were going somewhere. It's so dark and you're still injured."

Naoto who was walking away stopped and raised his head to look at the gloomy and dark sky: "We will go our separate ways from now on. I forgot to tell you that I am now Naoto Sekikawa of Amegakure Village. I am an Ameno ninja who is responsible for cleaning up illegal ninja groups in the country.

Sanshouyu Hanzo’s men, be careful not to fall into my hands.”

"Come back!" the Buddha shouted: "It's raining outside, it will get you wet, and it will be bad if you catch a cold."

"goodbye!"

"I didn't hear what you said."

Naoto walked outside, and Daibutsu chased after him while he was talking. He excused himself because he couldn't hear. This guy was the most sensitive in his heart and was always trying to protect the relationship between the three of them. When he caught up with Naoto, Daibutsu tugged on his sleeves.

"Wait for me, Naoto."

Naoto stopped and raised his eyebrows: "What, you want to leave with me?"

The Buddha waved his hand: "No, don't get it wrong. In fact, I came here to tell you that Jiuzuke didn't mean this. He actually cares about you the most, Naoto. You two have known each other for the longest time, but I was the last one to join.

of.

I think it is also Kitosuke who wants to tell you Naoto that we will still be family in the future. Your knowledge and ability are comparable to those of ten Kitosukes and me. There must be our own reasons for letting us leave Akatsuki, but even death cannot change me.

And Jiuzuke’s will, do you understand?”

"What do you mean is that hearing about it in the morning and dying in the evening is enough?"

"Yeah!"

Naoto rolled his eyes: "What the hell, you're uneducated and you're saying these unintelligible things."

"Hey, hey, Naoto, you are awesome, unlike me who only know how to eat."

"Big Buddha."

"Um?"

Naoto stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder and said seriously: "That guy Hatosuke is very stubborn and not good at words, but you have to remember to take him away if you find something is wrong. When the earth is lost, people will survive, and the earth will survive; when the earth survives, people will be lost.

Both people and land are lost. Remember this sentence, life is the most important thing at critical moments."

"Hehehe, I know." The Buddha scratched his bare head and smiled: "I will definitely take good care of Jiuzuke. Naoto, you should be careful when you are alone outside. If you are in danger, you can come to us."

"No need."

Naoto smiled and patted the Buddha on the shoulder, walking alone into the darkness, while the base behind him was lit by a faint firelight.

Outside the base, Xiaonan pulled Nagato's sleeves and walked to a secluded place. He carefully looked around and suddenly became angry. He took out the ointment from his bag and applied it to Nagato's face brutally.

"Nagato, you want to kill him, why?"

"······"

Konan immediately understood: "It's because of the agreement between Kosuke and Yahiko. According to the agreement, Yahiko will definitely fulfill his promise, so you are afraid that he will become the leader after returning to the Akatsuki organization as agreed?"

"Akatsuki is Yahiko's hard work, and I will not allow this outsider who has never appeared to get involved!" Nagato said with a hint of sinisterness on his face.

"But he is also a member of the Akatsuki. Have you forgotten? In fact, you don't have to kill him. Judging from the situation just now, he will never return to the Akatsuki."

"What if?"

Konan sighed worriedly: "I will keep this matter a secret for you and will not tell Yahiko, but you must apologize to Jiuzuke and Daibutsu. They are our companions, if you want to create a gap with them."

"I'm sorry, I will apologize."
