Scourge of Naruto

The feeling of being on the verge of death is like the oxygen in the chest being squeezed out in an instant. The sudden suffocation creates subconscious fear, and gradually takes away the sense of touch. In the increasingly dark space, experience a little bit of loss. of misery.

That kind of experience was enough once...but Ye Zi experienced it twice.

A cherry blossom tree was planted not far from the Ninja Hospital. When the flowers were blooming, the faint floral fragrance floated from afar, passed through the window, and brushed Ye Zi's nose.

The morning sun was warm but not dazzling. It fell on the pale face, but could not enter the dark eyes.

"The choice I made at that time was wrong." Ye Zi looked at the sky outside the window and used a low voice to refute the unrest in his heart.

How many near-death experiences can a person experience in his or her lifetime? How many near-death experiences can’t you have?

Walking from the darkness, listening to the familiar voices that are getting further and further away, I can even touch the deepening fear. I walked in the endless darkness for an unknown amount of time before I found the only glimmer of light, just like drowning. The person finally broke free from the shackles of water, struggled to open his mouth, and breathed in the air greedily.

I thought I was going to die, but I survived, so I started to regret it.

In that dark corridor, the voice of a loved one is behind you, but the light is in front of you.

If you die, it's all gone.

Ye Zi slowly clenched his fists hard, and his dark eyes were tainted with a faint coldness. He has never been a person willing to sacrifice for others, except for his close relatives...

But why exactly, and what was the motivation for him to come forward that night, and even almost died.

Click!

The door opened without warning.

A girl with dark red hair walked in carrying a fruit basket, followed by two people, one Minato and the other Bei Xingye.

Hearing the sound, the coldness in Ye Zi's eyes slowly disappeared, he turned his head and looked at the person quietly.

Kushina walked over and put the fruit basket on the table. Looking at her face that had lost too much blood and turned pale, she asked with concern: ""Does the wound still hurt?" "

"It's almost better." Ye Zi avoided Jiu Xingna's concerned eyes and spoke calmly.

Bei Xingye came over at this time, looked at Ye Zi's pale face, and said, "You really scared me to death. Even if you want to train, there is no need to go to such a dangerous place."

That day when he learned that Ye Zi was injured, he immediately rushed to the hospital to visit him. What he saw was Ye Zi who was wrapped up like a mummy and fell into a coma.

Ye Zi smiled faintly and refused to comment. When he woke up yesterday, Orochimaru had already made a brief explanation of the relevant matters. He could probably smell something about the kidnapping of Kyukina this time. It was certain. Yes, everything involved in it is not simple, not so simple that he cannot touch even a single bit.

Hostile ninjas invaded and kidnapped Kyuuki Na. Ye Zi was seriously injured trying to rescue Kyuuki Na. The official explanation given in the end was that he was too confident and went to the Death Forest for training and was accidentally seriously injured. Fortunately, he was discovered in time. , saved a life.

The real reason was completely concealed, and he was thinking that if he died unfortunately, he might die worthless and unknown to others.

But it doesn't matter to him anymore. After experiencing this life and death, he understands a lot. People in this world have no ties to him. He doesn't belong here...

Minato stood quietly on the side of the hospital bed. The sunlight coming from the window made his blond hair even more dazzling. He looked at Ye Zi on the hospital bed, with a hint of admiration in his dark blue eyes.

He has always had a softer personality and never competes with others, but he has always had absolute confidence in his own strength. However, since Ye Zi appeared, he discovered that competing with others is not a bad thing, especially when this person is catching up. itself.

Kushina picked up a red apple, smiled at Ye Zi and asked, "Want to eat an apple?"

Bei Xingye's eyes became strange when he saw this, and Kushina's look was so uncoordinated.

Minato usually pays more attention to Kyukina. When he saw Kyukina's gentle smile, he seemed to have discovered something strange. His expression was the same as that of Bei Xingye, slightly weird.

Kushina didn't notice the changes between the two of them. If she had, she might accidentally crush the apple in her hand.

If it were in the past, Ye Zi would point out Kyu Yukina's hypocritical behavior mercilessly, and briefly describe Kyu Yukina's character and corresponding scenes in easy-to-understand terms.

but now…

A coldness flashed deep in Ye Zi's eyes. He glanced at the bright red apple and refused with the right tone: "I'm not hungry, thank you."

Kushina's arm holding the apple trembled without a trace, and she stared at Ye Zi's expression and behavior that was no different from before. She frowned slightly. That thank you seemed to make her aware of something.

But she didn't think much about it, dropped the apple, and said angrily: "Eat it if you like it, I want to help you peel it."

Ye Zi smiled faintly and turned his head to look at the blue sky outside the window. Although they looked very similar, their personalities were completely different. It was enough to risk his life to do such a stupid thing once.

Bei Xingye glanced at Ye Zi, who was calm, and then at Kyuuki Na, who was a little angry. He didn't know what to say for a moment. Vaguely, he seemed to have noticed something was wrong, and the atmosphere in the past seemed to have changed. not like this.

"If there's nothing else, I want to have some peace and quiet." For some reason, Ye Zi felt very uncomfortable, so he issued an eviction order.

"Oh? Oh!" Bei Xingye was stunned, and after reacting, he looked at Kushina, who frowned lightly, and said after a moment: "Have a good rest."

After saying that, he turned around and left. Bei Xingye watched Kyu Xingna walk out and said to Ye Zi, "Ye Zi, hurry up and take good care of yourself. I'll treat you to a barbecue then."

Ye Zi still stared out the window and nodded slightly as a yes.

When Bei Xingye saw this, he followed Kyuuki Na out and walked out. Minato looked at the three of them and seemed to see something. He politely greeted Ye Zi and then turned around and walked out of the ward.

After a while, Ye Zi was left alone in the ward.

"The only one you can rely on is yourself."

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"Ku Yukina, wait for me." Bei Xingye waved and called as soon as he left the hospital.

As a last resort, Kushina could only slow down her pace and wait for Minato and Kitahoshiye to catch up.

Minato looked at Kushina's unusual behavior, and there was a trace of inquiry in his eyes. A team that had been together for more than a year should not be like this, especially Ye Zi who could risk his life to save Kushina, but why did he just do that? The atmosphere will be so strange.

"Ku Yukina, don't you think Ye Zi is weird?" Bei Xingye glanced at Minato, thought about it, and without any scruples, directly expressed his opinion.

"The devil knows." There was a hint of disappointment in Kushina's eyes, she waved her hands irritably and replied impatiently.

She noticed Ye Zi's different indifference from the past, that kind of indifference...it was the indifference when they first met, although it was well disguised under the calm face.

Why?

She was puzzled, and the more she thought about it, the more irritated she became.

Bei Xingye has been with Ye Zi for more than a year. He is not a fool. His senses are also very keen. He is not much worse than Jiu Xingna. He has also noticed Ye Zi's hidden indifference, and that indifference has long been with us. It was resolved within a period of time.

"What happened?" Seeing that Kyuyuki Na didn't want to dwell on this topic, Bei Xingye shut up knowingly, but he was thinking about what happened in the past few days.

Minato, who could be said to be an outsider, had a hard time thinking clearly about what was going on here. He looked at Kyukina and smiled softly.
