"Nagato?"
"Nagato?"
"Can you hear me? Nagato?"
Nagato opened his eyes in a daze and saw Konan with a caring face.
"I'm fine, Konan..."
Nagato responded, feeling that his head was a little heavy, especially the right side of his head, as if it had been hit hard.
After touching it, there was really a big bag.
"Hiss..." Nagato felt pain and quickly sat up. He suddenly realized something and looked shocked.
"Konan!?"
Konan is not dead!?
"Huh... you're finally awake, you scared me, Nagato."
Konan had lingering fear and had to pat his chest.
Only then did Nagato realize that he was lying in the house where Konan was first kidnapped.
He and Konan were the only two people in the room, but the door was open. It seemed to be quite lively outside, and there was a faint smell of fragrance.
At this time, a figure walked in, and Nagato suddenly felt nervous.
"You're awake, senior brother Nagato."
The person who came was none other than Ruohuo, and he was holding a skinned rabbit in his hand.
"Because it has been raining, barbecue is definitely not possible, but I know another cooking method that can ensure the original flavor of rabbit."
"Nagato Senior Brother, do you have any taste requirements? For example, how cooked it is, whether you want coriander, etc..."
Nagato was stunned for ten seconds...
"I... I can do it."
"Okay." Ruohuo didn't bother, turned around and left.
After Ruohuo left, looking at Nagato who was stunned, Konan chuckled.
"Your expression just now was the same as when Yahiko woke up. Nagato... were you scared?"
"... Ah?" Nagato scratched his head, still a little confused about the current situation.
So now it's...
"Don't worry, Nagato."
Konan patted Nagato's head, but did not pat the other side of the bag.
"Ruohuo Patriarch is not a bad person. He was just a test for you before... He just wants to confirm the character and strength of you and Yahiko. There is no malicious intent."
Konan explained softly, but it failed to calm Nagato's mood.
"Where is Yahiko?" Nagato asked.
"Yahiko took the two boys to catch fish. He is fine. The jutsu used by the Ruohuo clan leader at that time was actually a healing ninjutsu..."
"..." Nagato was silent.
I looked at my hands silently, feeling a little doubtful about life.
Healing ninjutsu... does it require such high temperatures?
Right.
Nagato suddenly remembered something, "What about teacher Jiraiya? Teacher Jiraiya should also..."
"I don't know about that, Nagato." Konan shook his head, "Ruohuo The patriarch didn't follow me too much, so I don't know..."
"That's it..."
Nagato lowered his head again, still a little worried, but soon his expression became weird again.
"Um...Konan, you just called him... the patriarch?"
Nagato has finally come to his senses, clan leader?
"Hehe..." Konan smiled happily, "No one will dare to bully us in the future, Nagato."
"I am now Uchiha Clan's Lord Konan. The Ruohuo clan leader said that he has been looking for me for a long time. Anyone who dares to bully me in the future will be recorded in Uchiha's notebook!"
"..." Nagato fell silent again, but this time the silence didn't last long.
"That's it... Congratulations, you found your tribe, Konan."
Although he was very surprised, Nagato still congratulated him sincerely.
Konan... Have you been found by the tribe? It turns out that this is what the young man said before.
No wonder before...
Nagato recalled what the boy said during the previous battle.
'He seems to know what my awakened power is... where would he know it from?'
Nagato thought secretly.
And this time.
Boom--!!
A loud noise came from the distance, Nagato could even feel the earth shaking!
"What's wrong!?"
Nagato immediately stood up and rushed out the door, looking into the distance, but the field of vision was not good on a rainy day, and with the obstruction of the hillside, he couldn't see anything at all.
When he came outside the door, Nagato discovered that there were several black "balls" placed in the open space outside the door, which were covered with orange lines. They were the same as Yahiko at that time...
"Nagato, are you hungry?"
Ruohuo's voice sounded, and he threw an apple to Nagato.
Nagato took it and looked at Ruohuo with a complicated expression.
"Let's make a nap first. There are still 8 and a half minutes before dinner starts. If you turn off the heat too early, it will affect the taste."
Ruohuo said calmly, and then continued to deal with Tutu.
"..." Nagato is indeed a little hungry, but now is obviously not the time to eat. He has a lot of questions to ask now, but he hasn't figured out how to ask them yet, boom--!!
There was another loud noise, this time it was louder, and the ground shook more intensely!
Nagato immediately looked in the direction of the sound, but still couldn't see anything.
Looking at Ruohuo again, I found that this guy was really calm and was still handling the rabbit meat carefully.
Looking to the other side, the girl named Pakura seemed to have not heard anything and was minding her own business stirring the pot with a spoon under the eaves.
"... Don't you hear?"
Konan also ran out and asked doubtfully.
"It's just two ordinary bombings. It won't delay our meal."
Ruohuo said without raising his head, "By the way... Senior brother Nagato, is there anything in particular you want?"
"Ah?" Nagato was stunned again, "Is there something you particularly want?"
"Yeah." Ruohuo finally finished handling the rabbit on his hands, put in seasonings and onions to remove the fishy smell, and wrapped it in lotus leaves.
Then Great Fireball covers it with one hand, Lava Style solidifies, and the temperature is accurately controlled at 250 degrees Celsius.
This doesn't look like Medical Ninjutsu...
"Senior sister Konan, thanks to you and senior brother Yahiko's care over the years, Uchiha Clan will repay a favor. As the leader of the clan, I have decided to grant you and senior brother Yahiko one wish."
Ruohuo casually threw the Lava Style beggar's chicken into the rain. The rainwater beat on it, raising bursts of white smoke, but it did not affect its temperature. Instead, it was a kind of massage for the ingredients.
"Senior brother Yahiko has made his wish. He wants to bring dawn to Land of Rain. I promised him."
Ruohuo stood up and looked at Nagato, his eyes were flat and his tone was normal.
"Senior brother Nagato, do you have any wishes? Or is there something special you want?"
"You don't have to be polite to me. I just spent 10 billion taels to acquire Sunagakure. If you have any ideas, senior brother Nagato, just tell me."
Boom--!
There was another loud noise, not only ringing in the ears, but also ringing in Nagato's heart...
