When he came out of the hospital, Red Bean, Iruka, and the rest had already left. Cold Wind had to go home.
Along the way, Han Feng kept thinking about one thing — whether or not his Goldfinger Harvest skill could be used to harvest ninjas' corpses.
Logically speaking, since he had collected the Forbidden Physical Activation Technique from the scroll, he could collect the corpses as well. But … practice was the only way to test the Goldfinger.
Cold Wind was a little regretful. He should have sneaked into the morgue to take a look and cast Harvest. As long as the green light was rolling, it meant that he could collect the corpses!
Cold Wind went home in frustration. As soon as he opened the door, he heard a middle-aged man's laughter coming from the house.
Cold Wind was shocked. He changed his shoes and ran in. He saw Gale acting coquettishly with a familiar man.
"Uh … Dad?"
Cold Wind was a little confused. Dad had come back from the battlefield?
No wonder Keiko kept winking at him to come back.
"Brother!" Gale saw Cold Wind come back and ran over. "Brother, where's my present?"
Cold Wind took out a bracelet worth fifty taels and dismissed him lightly.
"Cold Wind, you've grown taller!"
Gekko Hoshino looked at Cold Wind with a gratified expression.
"Dad, you …"
Cold Wind asked without thinking, "Aren't you on the battlefield?"
Gekko Hoshino said, "The war at the frontline is in a stalemate. There won't be a big battle for a while, so I was ordered to escort the wounded and injured companions back. I'll also bring back a batch of supplies."
So that was it.
Cold Wind understood.
"Cold Wind, I heard from Gale that you're very good at throwing ninja tools. You've also started to learn how to climb walls. Is that true?" Gekko Hoshino looked at him expectantly.
Cold Wind nodded. "It's true."
"Although your swordsmanship talent is poor, you can still become an excellent ninja if you work hard. Godfather, Cold Wind!" Gekko Hoshino encouraged his son.
"I know," Cold Wind laughed dryly, and then asked, "Dad, how long will you stay at home?"
"It shouldn't take more than a week." Moonlight and Hoshino laughed. "When the village's supplies and support arrive, I will go to the frontline."
"Dad …"
Cold Wind wanted to say something but stopped himself. In his previous life, he had read many transmigration novels. Whenever the main character transmigrated, an entire family would die. Cold Wind did not want this to happen to him.
"Haha, Cold Wind, are you worried about Dad?" Moonlight and Hoshino were very pleased. "Don't worry, Dad will definitely not die!"
"My dad too." Gale ran over happily after putting on the bracelet.
"Of course!" Moonlight and Hoshino laughed.
"Dad … why don't you tell us about the frontline?" Cold Wind asked.
Cold Wind was more or less curious about the war between the village and the Sand, and if his mother came back, she would definitely stop his father from talking about the war because he was still a minor.
"Okay."
Moonlight and Hoshino organized their words and started talking about the frontline.
After the Sand invaded the border city of Kikyo, they used the city as a stronghold and attacked the city crazily, occupied the city, plundered the supplies, and captured a large number of civilians.
At the same time, the Daimyo of the Wind Country also sent a large number of guards and civilians to Kikyo and other cities invaded by the Sand. Although their arrival could not improve the combat power of the Sand, they could help the Sand manage the city, monitor the prisoners, and provide excellent quality services.
It wasn't until the Ninja army of Wood Leaf appeared that the Sand's invasion was stopped.
Then the two sides broke out more than a dozen battles, and the casualties were quite heavy.
Because the Sand was fighting in a foreign country, their supply line was long, and they even had to pass through the Rain Country, which was far less efficient than Wood Leaf's supply. So after a long battle, they began to decline. Under the attack of Wood Leaf, they began to close the frontline.
Wood Leaf wanted to continue their efforts and drive the Sand out of the Fire Country, but the Sand were not happy and said they wanted to rest. Wood Leaf didn't agree, so the Sand shamelessly pushed out the civilians in their hands. Wood Leaf didn't dare to push too hard, so the frontline war has changed from one side to another. Today you assassinate a few of my higher-ups, tomorrow I'll assassinate a few of your staff. Although there was no longer a large-scale battle, the degree of danger seemed to be getting higher and higher.
Gale listened and exclaimed again and again, he couldn't wait to grow up ten years and fight for the village.
Cold Wind was also fascinated. In this war, so many ninjas died on both sides. These are all potential resources to be collected.
"Uncle, what about my father?"
Gale asked again.
"Your father is in the assassination group. When I came back, there was a mission, so he didn't come back this time." Hoshino said.
"Dad's mission will be successful."
Gale said with his eyes shining.
Cold Wind asked, "Dad, how are the casualties of the Moonlight Clan?"
Hoshino looked at Cold Wind in surprise and smiled, "I didn't expect Cold Wind to start caring about the family."
As soon as the words fell, the smile on Hoshino's face disappeared, and he said solemnly, "As of the day I came back, two of our clan members were sacrificed, both were elite Chunins. In addition, thirteen of our clansmen were injured, three of them were seriously injured and could no longer participate in the battle. I have sent the two who sacrificed and the three who were seriously injured back.
Cold Wind frowned, "Dad, how many ninjas did we send?"
"Seventy-two!" Hoshino didn't hide.
Cold Wind's heart sank.
Seventy-two people, in just over a month, two died, three were seriously injured, and ten were slightly injured. According to Cold Wind's knowledge, Wood Leaf drove the Sand out of the Fire Country through the battle of Kikyo Mountain. It was in Wood Leaf's year 46, which was about three years from now.
Three years is thirty-six months!
Cold Wind didn't dare to imagine how many members of the Moonlight Clan would be left after thirty-six months, unless everyone could come back from the battlefield with 'serious injuries'.
Therefore, he vaguely asked, "Dad, if you were seriously injured, would you be able to come back from the battlefield?"
"Ah?"
Moonlight and Hoshino were stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud. "Cold Wind, are you worried about Daddy? But don't worry, dad will never be seriously injured unless he meets an enemy he can't beat! "
Hoshino was domineering.
"But if you really meet an enemy you can't beat, it's not just a serious injury." Cold Wind muttered.
"What did you say?" Hoshino didn't hear clearly.
"Nothing." Cold Wind shook his head.
"Brother said that if you really meet an enemy you can't beat …" Gale, who had been sitting next to Cold Wind, immediately repeated.
"Shut up."
Han Feng glared at him lightly, giving him a look to let him experience it himself.
Gale lowered his head and felt wronged, "Oh."
"Cold Wind, you need to care and love your brother more. You can't be so fierce to him, okay?" Hoshino said with a straight face.
Cold Wind played dumb, "Hehehe."
