Konoha, Year 62, April 19
The sky was overcast, and it suddenly started to rain. The drizzle was very gentle, and it fell on people's bodies evenly.
Konoha Konoha Hospital in the Land of Fire.
Unfortunately, it wasn't the ward that Naruto was used to sleeping in. There wasn't much scenery to speak of in the private half of the basement. Apart from the huge wall with barbed wire tied around the small window, there was only a finger-wide gray sky. But this place was sturdy, hidden, and spacious. People who didn't know would never be able to find it … The only awkward thing was that the hospital bed in the middle had been used as an operating table for a long time.
But our Naruto probably wouldn't object too much to the hospital choosing to save him at the Orochimaru Laboratory site. If he wanted to object, he would have to wake up first.
In fact, he felt that he had already woken up many times. At least he could hear his son's voice, then Dou's voice, Mute's voice, and occasionally Genma and Shisui would come. But what about Kakashi? What about the others? He seemed to have accidentally left a mess for everyone. It was normal that no one cared about him when they were busy. But Dingzhuo and Jiraiya -sensei should have stayed by his side. Every time he changed the bedsheets, his son had to use a bunch of his sons to lift him up.
Sigh, this time when he woke up, he really shouldn't have a bad temper. Dingzhuo had stayed outside for too long. He probably still wasn't used to being the Shadow Minister that Naruto of Four Generations needed. If he had explained it to him before, and thought about it before speaking, they wouldn't have quarreled after more than thirty years of brotherhood. And Jiraiya -sensei, you clearly knew what kind of person she was even before you graduated from the Ninja Academy. Also, thirty years have passed, and you're complaining about her here and there. Bo Fung Watergate, even if you have the final say in Konoha, you have the final say in the Land of Fire. You can influence more areas and more people, but remember not to be arrogant. Everyone living in the world has their own position, needs, and preferences. You are a piece of banknote, and there are those who treat money like dirt. Moreover, not everyone is your son. Do you think that everyone can be like Naruto and unconditionally accommodate a bad father like you? "Ming …"
Watergate called out to his son. He didn't know how long he had been unconscious, but his son's voice was hoarse and tired. Taking care of a troublesome patient was not as warm and romantic as it was portrayed in idol dramas. Let's not talk about the awkwardness of having to lie down for 24 hours. Let's talk about his poor stomach. Stomach problems were not just stomach pains. He would vomit, vomit in all kinds of ways. Sometimes, the things he vomited out were so disgusting that he wished he could mosaic them. He could even smell the sour gastric juices. It was as disgusting as it could get.
Really, if he could clean up Watergate, he would clean it up himself. He even felt ashamed to let Kakashi and the Anbu clean it up. Kakashi and the Anbu were all ruthless people who had been on the battlefield and dared to barbecue meat next to a corpse that had been left for several days. And his son, young master Naruto … was a cute child who had just killed a traitor who had committed a heinous crime. He wasn't even sure if he had succeeded in killing the traitor. "People …"
So, my son, that's enough. Hand your father over to the nurse and call your Uncle Dingzhuo and Grandpa Jiraiya.
However, no matter how active Watergate's mind was, he still didn't open his eyes. The more anxious he was, the weaker he became. Every time he tried, he felt like he was pulling a mountain with his eyelashes. And every time he wanted to take a break and continue, he would immediately be swept up by a tall tornado and stuffed into the dark Uzumaki deep in the sea. He turned and turned, and when he finally caught something and saw light, he still had to use his eyelashes to pull a stone. Watergate could only continue to try, and then continue to turn and turn in the dark … He always had the illusion that he was thrown into a washing machine. This washing machine would make a loud noise, and when it was dry, it would jump up and scare him. It was exactly the same as the old guy in Bo Feng's house. Sometimes, he and Kina, two Jonin, couldn't even hold it in …
That's right, Kina!
Watergate felt that his breathing became rapid again. He fell into the darkness again and again, and he was on the verge of waking up again and again. He repeatedly told himself not to forget, but just now, he was almost thrown out of his memory — Bo Fung Watergate, don't forget, you really saw your own body. You heard Mute say that you were not breathing and had no heartbeat. Even your pupils were taken out by her trembling body to check. Don't forget, in the few minutes after you died, you saw the old butler standing behind Sandaime Sandaime, Hatake White Fang who was leisurely drinking tea, and your wife who was still unable to communicate with you but could still grab your ankle and hit you until it hurt. Don't forget, you are not the lunatic that the nurse said. They are really always there. Those souls that didn't leave are not your illusion. They are really always by your side. Don't forget, Bo Fung Watergate, you have been a ghost. Ghosts can actually see living people. Ghosts can see you eat, drink, sleep, work, and even secretly cry when you take a bath or go to the toilet …
"Naruto …"
"Dad, what are you laughing at?" Naruto held his father's hand tightly. His father had been fighting with death on the hospital bed for five nights and four days. "You finally opened your eyes. Why don't you look at me? Why are you laughing?"
Watergate still couldn't determine whether he had really woken up or not. He only saw a vast expanse of white light, but Naruto's voice was very close this time.
"Don't laugh, dad. What's so funny!" Naruto pressed the call button. "Do you know how dangerous it was for you before? Do you know how worried you were?! You are already an adult, but you still call yourself the top student of Konoha Ninja School. Did you learn all about the human body from my mother?! You can't even tell where the pain is! Stomach pain is like being cut by a knife and being pinched by someone's fingernails! Heart discomfort is like being pressed by a big stone! It is a pain that radiates to the whole neck and arm! You used to complain about stomach pain every day, but when did you see a stomach pain that hurts your neck and arm?! If you had found out earlier that it wasn't stomach pain at all! As soon as you feel uncomfortable, you would call a doctor! You wouldn't be lying in bed like this! "
Watergate listened to his good-tempered son roaring at him. He quickly tried to move his body again. It was still very heavy, but it didn't prevent him from holding Naruto's hand. He wanted to say sorry, sorry, dad won't be so careless in the future. But the oxygen mask on his face was in the way. Moving his lips made his throat dry. He could only slowly write on Naruto's hand — I saw your mother.
Naruto recognized his father's ugly handwriting little by little. Finally, he couldn't hold on and cried.
Watergate tried to open his eyes again. Naruto's outline could already be seen. Moreover, he wanted to find Kina. In the past, he saw her motionless. When she was half-dead, he saw her moving. When she was dead, he saw her moving. Now he was a bit half-dead … He didn't know if Kina was still by his side.
But Naruto didn't care what Watergate was looking at. He didn't have the patience to distinguish what his father's weak fingers were writing. "Dad, it's great that you can wake up. Do you know how many times you have been resuscitated in the past few days?! Mute said that you took too long. It is very likely that your head will break and you will never wake up and become a cactus. Kabuto began to write a suicide note. He said that you are a bad person who put a seal in his heart. If you die, he will die too. He has been pestering Kakashi to unlock the seal for him. But Kakashi, that idiot, can't find the seal at all. And Nine Tails. Nine Tails also kept telling me that you won't wake up. After you die, you will be more miserable than alive. You will go to the eighteenth level of hell and be fried in a pot of oil. Don't you think he is a bad fox? "
His wife was very important, but if he didn't take care of his filial son, what if Kina was still by his side … Watergate silently gave up the unfinished "mother" and made a check mark on Naruto's palm. Yes, he is a bad fox. Don't believe anything he says. Fox spirits are the best at lying.
"Yes, Dad is right. Kurama is a bad fox." Naruto finally received his father's message. He cried even harder. "If you want to raise a bad fox like this at home, you must take it to the pet shop and cut off its balls. Otherwise, it will not be mature enough and will run away with the mother fox."
Watergate listened to his son's words and wanted to laugh even more. He suddenly wanted to ask how Lion Ball was. Did Naruto take good care of it? Since he was raising a pet, he had to take good care of it. Instead of giving up halfway, he might as well eat it from the beginning. But he didn't dare to tell Naruto some cruel truths. Lei Ying had clearly asked him if Lion Ball was delicious. They had roasted a litter of lion cubs. The smaller, the better.
"Dad, what are you laughing about?" Naruto saw his father smile again and quickly wiped away his tears. He still didn't want his father to see him cry. These days when his father was in a coma, he really didn't shed a single tear. Really. He wanted to tell his father that he had grown up and could take care of his father. He could take responsibility. He was much more reliable than those useless people in Naruto's building who were completely at a loss once they lost Naruto. He also wanted to tell his father that he didn't know what kind of chaos Konoha was in these days when he was on leave. No wonder he insisted on working every time he was sick. Those idiots really couldn't be left alone … Ah, Naruto, shut up! Fortunately, you only remember to cry. He couldn't talk about work. Mute and Dou had said that his father's heart suddenly stopped because he was under too much pressure. Yes, no work, no trouble, no unhappiness. He could rest as much as he wanted. "Dad, wait. I'll help you call the doctor. Really, no one came after pressing the call button for so long."
Watergate tapped Naruto's palm. He could clearly feel that he was recovering. His vision was clearer. But after looking around the entire ward, he still couldn't find Kina.
Naruto didn't really let his father out of his sight. He made a hand seal and created a shadow clone. He continued to hold his father's hand. "Are you feeling better now?"
Watergate's consciousness was clearer. He drew the word "water". He was really thirsty.
Naruto looked at his father's cracked lips and felt his heart ache. "They didn't let me give you water. They said too much water in your body will suppress your heart. Bear with it and wait for Mute or Dou to come. Don't blame them for being slow. Especially, don't lose your temper and scold them. In order to save you, the two of them did their best. Today, they saw that your condition was much better. It's normal for them to go out and deal with their own things or fall asleep. Dad, you're really hard to please. "
Watergate drew a question mark.
Naruto massaged his father's knuckles. "Kakashi was right. An unknown Doctor-Ninja may be able to get close to you, but the IV needle can't penetrate your body. Uncle Dingzhuo said that this was a problem left over from the war. But dad, we have to change now. If in the future you only have unknown doctors around you, you have to let them save you. Dou said that this time you'll probably have some sequelae. What he said was scary. But dad, don't be afraid. Don't be afraid no matter what happens. I'm here. I'll always be here.
”
Yes, yes. I'm not afraid of sequelae. I'm just afraid of your nagging. Your nagging really resembles your mother. Dad just said that he wanted to drink water. Forget it. If he didn't want to drink, then he wouldn't drink. In the past, he could still be domineering and say that it was his business to do what he wanted, and it was his business to keep him healthy. But after all, the heart is different from the stomach … It's all Dingzhuo's fault. He was always worried that he would die from overwork. Unfortunately, he was right. "Cough, cough, cough."
"Dad, is your throat really uncomfortable?" Naruto looked at the water bottle and hesitated. "You should bear with it."
Watergate wanted to tell his son not to worry. He was just testing his vocal cords. "Take it off."
Naruto knew that his father didn't want the oxygen mask, but he wouldn't take it off. Yesterday, his father woke up in a daze and asked him to take it off. As soon as he took it off, his father fainted again like a stranded carp. "Yaoshi Dou, why are you so slow!"
Dou was grabbed by the other Naruto. His hair was wet, and the short bathrobe on his body was also wet. He really felt that Bo Fung Watergate's schedule was against him. "Didn't we agree that Katou is on duty?"
The other Naruto quickly added. "Mute -san received an emergency in the operating room, so I went to grab Dou."
"Oh." Naruto took back his Shadow Clone and pushed Dou to his father's side for examination. Once again, he felt that his father always said that Konoha's medical patience was not enough. He didn't want to take advantage of it. Those who know a little medical ninjutsu and can deal with some external injuries are not serious medical ninjas. Medical ninjas like Mute -san and Dou can treat diseases. They also know how to deal with situations that they have never encountered before. "That, Dou?"
Dou carefully looked at the long electrocardiogram data. "It's too early to say that he's okay. Now he's conscious, but fortunately his brain is not broken. The first cardiac arrest lasted at least five minutes. Please continue to be mentally prepared that your father may lie in bed for the rest of his life drooling and then need someone to take care of him when he goes to the toilet, Master Naruto. "
Naruto nodded very seriously.
Watergate was only angry, but he grabbed the oxygen mask and his hand slipped down the plastic.
Dou sighed and helped Naruto replace the mask with a nasal tube.
"Naruto." Watergate could finally speak normally. "Dad feels okay. Don't listen to Dou's nonsense. It's not that serious. I turned on the compressed oxygen when I felt something was wrong. I've been doing emergency treatment. There must be someone who forced me to take oxygen. It's not that serious."
"It's just a little memory loss." Dou looked at Naruto, whose face was as pale as paper and who gasped for breath after saying a few words. Again, he showed sympathy. It was the Golden Flash, the Golden Flash that had never been defeated and feared by everyone. "You didn't open the oxygen bag. Anko took it out and Red-Eye put it on for you."
"What's the point of saying Red-Eye?" Watergate felt that he was really terrible, but it was like his whole body was leaking air. "Water."
Dou gave Naruto a cup and a cotton swab. "Help your father wet his lips."
"Hey."
Naruto obediently wet his father's lips. He wanted to cry again. When his father was lying there and ignoring him, he believed that he would be strong. He even thought of many very bad situations, such as his father really died, Kakashi became the fifth generation leader, Konoha was in a mess because of Kakashi, and he came to turn the tide. He absolutely could not let his father's years of hard work go to waste. Naruto Uzumaki also did not want his father to worry. He could live well on his own. But now that his father had woken up and spoken, it was as though he had someone to lean on again. He began to feel weak and afraid. If he could, he would lie on the bed and drool. He would not be able to recognize his son. He would need someone to help him go to the toilet. As long as his father was alive, everything would be fine.
"Why are you crying?" Watergate finally saw the streaks of tears on his son's face. "Don't worry, your father is fine. He'll be better soon."
But Naruto still lay on the bed and hugged his father's arm, crying loudly. He did not want his father to die. He really did not want his father to die. Kakashi was his family, and everyone in Konoha had always been good to him. But as long as his father was still alive, it was different.
Watergate tried his best to raise his soft hand and put it on his son's head. He closed his eyes. Naruto's sense of responsibility told him that since he was awake, he had the obligation to ask about Konoha's situation. But at the same time, his intuition warned him that if he dared to talk about work without his son … Bo Fung Watergate, don't forget that the dead can see the living.
Pocket quietly changed Naruto's drip and gently closed the door. Then, he looked at Kakashi, Uchiha Shisui, Huo Xuanmen, Sagittarius, Shikaku Nara, Youjiwei, Hinata and his twin brothers, Jiraiya, and the third generation head. He wrote a piece of paper and stuck it on the door of the ward.
Kakashi looked at the four big words on the paper: "Visitors Are Not Allowed". He felt his heart stop beating. "Didn't you say that the situation was good yesterday? Today, it's not good?"
"It's not good." Pocket adjusted his glasses and immediately returned to the ward. Well, it's normal. It's raining today. "
Rain was not always normal.
…
Tomorrow was April 20th, 62 Konoha.
