Dawn,
Waves,
Rising tide,
Ebb tide.
Konoha's border station was surrounded by the sea on three sides. From the map,
It was like a small comma,
Only a narrow area in the west was tightened by an office building. And in the other directions,
They were all cliffs,
The bottom of the cliffs was full of jagged rocks and dangerous reefs. The only place that had been cleaned up to the point where people couldn't fall into a watermelon was only a rectangle 50 meters long and 21 meters wide,
Well, a standard swimming pool.
Thinking back to the reason why Sagittarius violated the central layout,
He chose the room at the side of the office building as his office because there was a window at the top of the swimming pool. In this way, he could also play high-platform diving in the boring interval of playing the role of a dragon challenged by a brave man.
So..,
Bo Fung Watergate was really just swimming now. Even if he did jump down in the beginning because he needed a good cooldown.
But no one in the dark unit who had been watching from the side dared to really think so. When your Naruto rushed out of the room in the middle of the night with a bloody leg and asked for an all-purpose antidote and used it on himself, how could his brain suddenly cramp and suddenly want to swim in the winter!
"Sir, you're almost done swimming, you can come up." Guard Captain Yamato stood on the reef outside the natural swimming pool, holding the clothes and blankets that Naruto had requested earlier and the bowl of ginger soup that was almost frozen into ice shards,
Shivering slightly in the cold wind. With his strength, he had long been unafraid of cold and heat,
But he couldn't stand seeing the target of his protection jump into the sea with his own eyes.
But the only answer he got was a strong body that was stripped to only a pair of pants and a strong arm that raised the goblet.
Yamato didn't move,
He looked at the half-empty wine bottle by his feet. This was supposed to be used to warm the body of the Four Generations,
But why did he drink one cup after another? There was no end to it!
So the empty cup that couldn't be poured was put down, and the arm was retracted. But our Lord Naruto just swam one more time, then stuck his head out, leaned against the rock, and drank by himself.
"Sir, you'd better come up first."
Watergate poured another half cup.
Yamato finally wanted to grab the glass and the bottle, but he didn't dare to. The Golden Flash was Naruto. He wasn't Kakashi, Genma, Shisui. He wasn't even Itachi, who Naruto watched grow up. He was just an ordinary subordinate, and he was from the roots! Even though he was now the captain of the guards, the captain was still the head of the bodyguards. He, he had never disobeyed Naruto's will, not even once. "Lord Four Generations!"
"Everyone says how beautiful the stars are when seen from the surface of the sea. But I've always been busy with all kinds of things here. Today is the first time I've noticed it." Bo Fung Watergate heard Yamato's tone become more and more anxious behind him, and he was finally willing to speak. "Don't worry, Yamato. We used to play like this. Some strong alcohol has to be drunk with people buried in the snow. For example, this bottle of Snow Country vodka in my hand. Of course, after drinking it, you'll occasionally have a stomachache, but a cold? What kind of joke are you talking about? "
"But you've only recovered from the cold a few days ago."
"Because it's a viral flu." Watergate paused for two seconds and rolled his eyes at his captain. "If you don't believe me, you can ask Kakashi later. When he was young, I kicked him into the ice hole many times. Ah, and Belt Soil … You may not know him, but he's my other disciple from the Uchiha family. He's a very cute young man, but unfortunately, he hasn't had the chance to grow up yet. "
Yamato was a little speechless. Of course, he knew Uchiha Belt Soil. Kakashi always ran to the memorial tablet with a small white flower because of him. However, Yamato unconsciously raised his voice. "Lord! Lord Four Generations, the truth is that you've just recovered from the cold. Have you forgotten that you caught a cold in the National Capital? That's why you snorted when you came into contact with the cold virus. "
"That day, I bled a little because of the seal."
Yamato recalled Kakashi's tone and didn't know Huo Xuanmen's tone. "Then where did the hole in your pants come from?"
"Hey, hey, hey." Watergate finally put down his wine glass and covered his ears under Yamato's devilish voice. "I thought only Kakashi and Genma would be so long-winded. How can you be so annoying at such a young age? Let me tell you, I was plotted against today, and I was miserably plotted against. Although I didn't suffer any losses, and even gained some benefits, I'm still very angry now, very angry. But I can't be angry. So, I need to vent. Vent, do you understand? It's rare that I'm in a good mood after drinking some wine. Don't be a wet blanket, okay? "
"Yes …" Yamato was a little unnatural. Although he didn't know the details, it was true that someone had broken into Naruto's bedroom. As the captain of the guards, he didn't react at all. So, he could be sure that it was because of his mistake … But if he wanted to vent his anger, he could've whipped him with his belt like how he whipped Kakashi senpai! Wouldn't it be more painful for him to torture himself here and make his enemies happy?
"But … Lord, please take care of your body."
"I'm in good health!"
Yamato silently counted the number of times Naruto had been hospitalized in the past two years. In the past, he was just an ordinary guard, not the person in charge, so he didn't feel much pressure. But now, he finally understood why Kakashi senpai wrote the "Kakashi Regulations," why Genma senpai would always think before Naruto, why Shisui senpai always chose to take the boring night shift when Naruto was sleeping, and the genius Itachi was so excited that he ran around the world like a wild animal in spring. "Lord …"
"Okay, okay, I know you're doing it for my own good, but in this weather, it's actually warmer in the water than on land." Watergate sighed and raised his head. "See, otherwise, Guy would've already come to take me back. Why would he bring me wine?"
Yamato looked up at Metke's office. The lights were bright, and Guy was in front of the window, waving at them.
"If you don't believe me, why don't you come in with me?" Watergate showed a big smile and shook the bottle. "Jiraiya senpai's wine is absolutely trustworthy."
Yamato frowned slightly, put down the things in his hands, and took off his clothes like Naruto, leaving only a pair of underwear, and then slowly slid into the water. Except for the piercing pain when he first entered the water, it was indeed not as cold as he imagined.
Watergate put his arm around Yamato's shoulder and laughed, handing over the glass. "You'll know after you drink."
Yamato didn't drink on a daily basis, and of course, he didn't smoke. He didn't think that a ninja should be captivated by alcohol or nicotine, which would affect his lungs, blood vessels, stomach, and even nerves. But he knew that Bo Fung Watergate smoked and drank. Cigarettes were used between jobs to refresh himself or to pass the time when he couldn't sleep. As for wine, although he didn't drink that often, as long as Naruto drank, he wouldn't stop until he collapsed. So when Yamato thought of this, he simply put down the glass, grabbed the bottle under Naruto's surprised eyes, and poured all the wine down his throat.
Then Yamato lowered his head, and decided to vomit something, so disgusting that Naruto couldn't stay in the water anymore.
Watergate looked at Yamato's movements, and he really wanted to jump out of the water to avoid being vomited. However, for a healthy and energetic young man, a bottle of wine didn't seem to have any effect. Yamato was embarrassed to find that he wasn't drunk or dizzy, and he couldn't vomit.
"Actually, you can try to scratch your throat." Watergate held back his laughter.
Yamato wanted to scratch his throat, but now he couldn't move.
Watergate finally laughed out loud. He patted the stiff Yamato and drank the last mouthful of wine in the glass. As the hot vodka slowly flowed from his esophagus into his stomach and spread to his whole body, he felt a long-lost wanton.
At that time, he didn't need to drink, and his body was always warm, even if he was buried in the snow. No one would try to stop him and Kakashi from catching fish under the floating ice with Belt Soil. Maybe there was even a bonfire on the shore waiting for their harvest. And he didn't have to think about Naruto, the Mizukage, the Kazekage, Konoha, or the game between the big countries. He only needed to think about how to survive the mission safely and spend the rest of the time happily holding hands with Kina. Not to mention who deserved to live, who died unjustly, who couldn't die … At that time, even Naruto didn't exist.
So, any worries and worries could vanish in an instant.
"If only time could stay in the past." Bo Fung Watergate stopped laughing and looked up at the starry sky and muttered to himself.
"My lord?"
"You shouldn't have drunk half of my bottle of wine." Watergate climbed up a stone and jumped up. "It's a pity that the blue beast is so kind, isn't it?"
Metke stood aside with a towel. He stuffed the towel to Naruto and then lifted the blanket. "It's never bad to drink less."
Watergate didn't answer. He wrapped the blanket, yawned, and then disappeared.
"My lord, where are you going?" Yamato, who finally reacted, also jumped out of the water, but he didn't receive the same treatment as Naruto.
Guy patted Yamato on the shoulder. "The next time he wants to drink, let him drink, but make sure to bring good wine. Kakashi told me so."
"No, this." Yamato put on his clothes, but he was still a little confused.
"I'm going to dry his hair. You go prepare food and arrange for the medical ninja. Although I don't know what exactly happened to him, he seems to be fine now. But the wound seems to be from his own stab, and he needs to jump into the sea to calm down. It's better to check his blood just to be sure. And although the wound on his leg isn't big, it needs to be treated properly after soaking in the water for so long. "
"Yes." Hearing the order, Yamato seemed to finally have a backbone.
"And." Guy hesitated for a few seconds, but still didn't say the word he suspected, "Spring." "Remind you, if the Four Generations don't want to take the initiative to speak, you'd better not ask. Genma told me so."
Yamato looked at Guy, and he suddenly felt that this kind of meticulous Guy was a little strange.
But soon, Metke showed all his teeth. "If I wanted to stay in the guard, you wouldn't be the captain. In short, don't ask."
In fact, there was no need to ask. Since the Mizukage was already prepared, then what happened between her and Naruto in the room in the second half of the night should have already begun to spread quickly. It is estimated that at dawn, the border station will receive many different versions. Well, from the Water Country.
Konoha 61
On the 11th, 4 o 'clock in the afternoon, after three days of sailing, a large ship finally docked.
This was the National capital of the Water Country. In fact, it wasn't far from the Konoha border station of the Fire Country. It only took less than three days by ordinary ship. And the small ship may only take one night. And this was one of the reasons why Jiraiya was willing to take Naruto and the others out.
In short, Jiraiya and Sasuke were still dressed as samurai, but after three days of not washing their faces, they looked a lot poorer. Naruto had taken off his attendant's cotton-padded jacket and changed into a ninja uniform without any markings. Of course, he didn't dare to take off the red wig, and he even stuck tattoo paper on his face. Xiao Ying, on the other hand, still looked clean and tidy, like a young lady. However, the golden eyepatch betrayed her.
At this point, their group easily changed from a big fat sheep of a merchant family to a group of unknown ninjas, two fallen samurai, and a woman who had been sailing for many years.
Such a combination in the National capital of the Fire Country, without a doubt, they would be eliminated by the Konoha ninjas. But in the National capital of the Water Country, no one dared to look at them.
"The public security in the Water Country seems to be a bit bad. We girls are always so sensitive to the need for a sense of security. " Sakura was the first to frown. She looked worriedly at Naruto who was silent after getting off the ship. Well, they had only been out for five days, and they already heard that the Four Generations were already at the border station. They didn't expect this, and …
"You should say that the public security in the Fire Country is too good. I feel much more at ease in the Water Country than in the Fire Country. Just by looking at the road, you can start a fight with anyone you don't like, and no one will care. It's a kind of happiness. "Jiraiya also looked at Naruto worriedly. He expected that his son would kill his way to the border if he didn't receive any news from his son, but he didn't expect it to be so fast, and …
"Of course it's a good thing that the public security is good. It's better than meeting two waves of thieves as soon as we got off the port. " Sasuke also frowned under the gaze of Jiraiya and Sakura. He really didn't know how to comfort Naruto now. He felt that if it was his father, although his father was dead, the one who was alive was his mother. But if he went out to play for a few days, and suddenly came back home to find that there was a new uncle in his house, and his mother introduced him as his new father, he really couldn't stand it. As soon as they got off the ship, they heard that almost the whole Water Country was talking about their Mizukage. Just last night, their Mizukage recommended himself to Konoha's Super Golden Bachelor, the most eligible bachelor, the leader of the Four Generations, Naruto, the Golden Flash, and Bo Fung Watergate. Success! Success! … It's better to just change the topic.
So Jiraiya quickly expressed his interest in Sasuke's money bag, "There are a lot of thieves, and you don't lose anything."
"But ordinary people have a harder life." Sakura also tacitly agreed.
"Do you think that all the Shinobi Villages are Konoha, and all the Kage are Naruto's father?" Jiraiya curled his lips and looked more worried at Naruto who didn't have the energy to talk about his father. So he decided to cut the Gordian knot, "Okay, we've been out for three days, and we'll take the fastest boat back. If we're lucky, we'll arrive tomorrow morning. In short, let's go to the bounty office and hand in the heads. After all, there are two C-level missions."
"Oh, okay." Sasuke and Sakura quickly ran into the bounty office, but soon came out with their bags.
"What's wrong?" Jiraiya, who often dealt with the bounty office, knew that as long as it was the head of a rebellious ninja, they would accept it. "Did we kill the wrong person?"
"No, no." Sasuke looked at Sakura and then awkwardly winked at Jiraiya. They were all talking about the scandal between Naruto and the Mizukage! Cough, "It's just that when I saw the Four Generations -sama's bounty, I don't know what to say. Naruto, you don't have to go in, I'm afraid you won't be able to resist the temptation."
"Oh, okay." Naruto was still restless. Before he went out, he was looking forward to killing rebellious ninjas, doing high-level missions, and of course, visiting the legendary bounty office. But now … his father was no longer young as a ninja, but as a man, he was still a handsome uncle. Having a woman to take care of him wasn't a bad thing. Naruto even thought that if his father really married another wife, he would definitely get along well with her, and if they gave birth to a younger brother or sister, he would definitely love his father. He only hoped that his father wouldn't be so lonely every night. But now, his father, who had always been clean and honest, was really involved in a scandal, and as his son, he found out about it so late. It really made his heart sour.
After the sourness, there was only bitterness left.
