NOVEL NEXT Chapter 18: Scary Sleep Talk
Mizuki said: "I'm leaving!"
Then he stepped out.
At this moment, Tsubaki suddenly said: "Damn Sarutobi Hiruzen, I will kill you sooner or later."
Mizuki froze on the spot and turned around with shock on his face.
"You, you came from time travel too?"
Don’t blame him for asking, because Chun’s words were spoken in Chinese.
Although it sounds a bit lame, Mizuki will never misunderstand it. It is Chinese and standard Mandarin.
This is the ninja world. Without China, how could there be Chinese?
Therefore, Mizuki subconsciously believed that Tsubaki also came through time.
At this moment, he felt extremely excited.
Fellow fellow!
But Chun looked puzzled and asked, "Mizuki-kun, do you know the meaning of that sleep talk just now?"
"Sleep talk? What sleep talk?" Mizuki realized something was wrong.
Chun: "That's the strange sentence I just said. It was what you said in your dream last night. You said it dozens of times last night, and I have memorized it. I just remembered it, so I repeated it to you."
Mizuki: "..."
Happy for nothing.
I thought Chun was also a time traveler, but I didn't expect that it was actually caused by talking in his sleep.
He responded quickly and said: "Oh, the meaning of that dream talk is: Dear Chun, we will be happy for the rest of our lives."
"I had a dream last night. I dreamed that we got married and gave birth to several babies. We were carefree and lived happily every day."
Chun's face was filled with surprise: "Really, that's great!"
"But Mizuki-kun, why have I never heard of the language you talk in your sleep?"
Mizuki explained: "It is an ancient saying. It is said that it is earlier than the era when Sage of Six Paths was born. It is no longer used in the ninja world. I learned it by chance when I was on a mission in the Land of Whirlpool."
"Just now I thought you knew that language, and I was shocked."
"It's getting late, I'm leaving."
Looking at Mizuki's retreating figure, the joy on Chun's face faded, and her eyes were filled with sadness.
"When you talk in your sleep, you don't use your mother tongue, but use other ancient languages that are rarely used in daily life."
"And when you were talking in your sleep last night, you were gnashing your teeth, your face was ferocious, full of murderous intent, and you didn't look happy at all."
"Mizuki-kun, what are you hiding from me?"
With a worried look on her face, she turned back to the house.
Just as he was about to close the door, a hand held the door, and a Gennin stood at the door at some point.
"Chūnin Chun, Lord Danzo invites you!"
Tsubaki said coldly: "After the Uchiha clan was exterminated a few years ago, Elder Danzo was removed from his post by the Third Hokage and has no right to order the ninjas in the village."
"You go, I won't go."
Gen Ren: "It's about the truth about your fiancé's mission."
Chun: "Wait a moment, I'll change clothes."
At this time, Mizuki, who had already walked away, felt a layer of cold sweat break out on his back.
risk!
It’s too risky!
"Fortunately, it was in Chinese. If it had been in the island language, it might have been over by now."
In the dream, he shouted that he wanted to kill the Third Hokage, dozens of times.
If Chun knew what she meant, even if it was her fiancé, she would definitely kill her.
Mizuki realizes that his engagement with Tsubaki must be broken off, and as soon as possible.
And from now on, you have to turn a blind eye when sleeping, and you must never talk in your sleep again.
Hokage Building, Hokage Office.
The Third Generation stared at the crystal ball until Mizuki walked out of Konoha's gate before putting the crystal ball away.
At this time, the office door was pushed open and Danzo walked in.
Third Generation: "After Mizuki died, his body was brought to me. I need to know some secrets about him."
It has been more than half a month since I gave the Chakra control pill to Nara Shikaku, but I haven't found anything useful yet.
Third Generation has always been worried about this.
He always felt that Mizuki was hiding something from Chakra Control Pill.
This is why he designed several times to kill Mizuki.
Because after Mizuki's death, he can arrange for the Yamanaka family to explore Mizuki's memory and find the answers they want.
Regardless of whether Mizuki had the recipe for the Chakra Control Pill, he was going to give it a try.
Danzo: "Okay."
Third Generation: "This time, it should be safe, right?"
Danzo: "I didn't know he had a trump card last time, so I took it lightly. This time I'm fully prepared and guaranteed to be foolproof."
Third Generation: “You took his fiancée away?”
Danzo: "His strength is unknown. I did this just in case."
Third Generation narrowed his eyes, lowered his voice, and said, "Danzo, you have crossed the line. Chun did not do anything wrong."
Danzo glanced at Third Generation, sneered, and said, "The news that they will get married in half a month came from the Hokage Building."
"In my impression, when you and Biwako got married, not so many people mentioned it half a month ago."
Third Generation took a puff of his pipe and stopped talking.
Danzo's meaning is obvious. It was you, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who pushed this matter. Stop pretending to be a good person here.
I, Danzo, have seen through it all.
After Mizuki left Konoha, he walked straight east along the road, neither too fast nor too slow.
But his spirit remained tense.
There may be traps on the road ahead, and there may be ambushes in the woods nearby.
It is a matter of life and death, and we must not relax.
It would take at least five or six days to walk from Konoha to the border.
The first day passed quickly, and Mizuki didn't suffer any attacks. At night, he stayed in a town he was passing through, and the night was also uneventful.
Then the second day, the third day...
Until the sixth day, when he arrived at the village where the mission to exterminate the bandits was issued, there were no accidents on the way.
"It seems that they are waiting for me on the mountain."
Entering the village, Mizuki found the village chief, revealed his identity, and asked where the bandits were.
"Mizuki-kun, it's getting late today and you've come after a long journey. Let's talk about the mission tomorrow."
"The village has prepared fine wine and food. You can enjoy a meal, have a good sleep, and be refreshed, which will help you go up the mountain tomorrow."
The village chief was very polite.
After experiencing being drunk by Tsubaki with medicinal wine, Mizuki became more cautious and never drank alcohol.
"No need to go to such trouble. The village chief told me directly about the bandits. I will wipe them out tonight."
Soon, Mizuki learned the general situation on the mountain from the village chief.
This group of bandits, numbering around twenty, are all ordinary people and there are no ninjas.
Logically speaking, ordinary bandits don't need Konoha's ninjas to eliminate them.
But in fact, the government sent officers and soldiers to the mountain several times, but nothing could be done against these bandits.
The main thing is that the mountain is surrounded by cliffs on all sides, and bandits climb up and down with the help of ropes hanging from the cliffs.
As soon as the officers and soldiers came, the bandits pulled the rope up, and the officers and soldiers naturally couldn't climb up.
"Understood, I'll go up the mountain and wait for my news."
The sun has set and the sky is getting dark.
After Mizuki left the village, the village chief immediately lit a bonfire in the open space of the village.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, Mizuki looked up and saw that the mountain was surrounded by cliffs, making it difficult for ordinary people to climb.
But this is all trivial to a ninja.
He put his feet on the cliff and walked up step by step.
Like walking on flat ground.
"We should take action!" Mizuki was already ready.
The next moment, he heard a "hissing" sound.
This familiar voice, without even looking, is a detonating talisman, and it has been activated.
Looking along the sound, I found the location of the detonating talisman, just three meters to the left.
At this distance, the power of the explosion is not enough to injure him, but the shock wave generated by the explosion will cause him to become unstable and even fly up.
This is a cliff, not flat ground.
If it slips at any moment, it may fall, let alone fly.
Mizuki turned his head quickly, looking for the target of the apparation.
But before he could find it, he heard a "boom" and the detonating talisman exploded.
The powerful shock wave immediately knocked Mizuki's body away, and his feet immediately left the cliff.
It was hundreds of meters above the ground. If he fell, his whole body would be completely shattered, his internal organs would burst, and his brain would explode.
Damn it!
Of course, this is for ordinary people.
Mizuki reacted quickly. Two streams of Chakra erupted from the spring hole under his feet, forming a strong wind. A recoil force pushed him back to the cliff, and he firmly grasped a protruding rock with both hands.
After more than half a month of practice, although the air-stepping technique is still not as good as an arm, let alone flying in the air. But like just now, it’s okay to have a short emergency.
Standing on the cliff again, Mizuki became more cautious.
He scanned the surrounding area with his eyes, checking whether there were any detonating symbols around him.
At this moment, two hands stretched out from the cliff rocks and grabbed his ankles.
"Earth Style. Heart Beheading Technique!"
With a soft cry, Mizuki was pulled into the rock, with only his head exposed.
A masked Root Ninja emerged from the cliff.
"You have been restricted in your mobility. You can't do the connecting seal with both hands. According to Master Danzo's instructions, you can die."
The opponent held a kunai and slashed towards Mizuki's throat.
Mizuki smiled and said: "It seems that Danzo still doesn't know how the root ninja died before."
The Apparition Technique, it seems, hasn't been revealed yet.
