While Jiraiya was engrossed in Liu Bei, Bieshu Feifan visited the Hokage's Office every day.
Bang~
"Bro, I came to see you."
Bieshu Feifan pushed open the door to the Hokage's Office once again.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's breath caught, and he turned to burrow into the wall.
Bieshu Feifan reacted swiftly. The instant Hiruzen Sarutobi disappeared, he punched straight into the wall.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had only just hidden himself, widened his eyes. Before he could run, Bieshu Feifan grabbed him.
Bang~
"Ah~"
Bieshu Feifan pried Hiruzen Sarutobi right out.
Before Hiruzen Sarutobi could get up, Bieshu Feifan cupped his face again and began examining it intently.
Hiruzen Sarutobi tried to pry Bieshu Feifan's hands away, but Bieshu Feifan's fingers pinched his flesh, leaving him unable to exert any strength.
He wanted to turn his head, but the strength in his neck was no match for Bieshu Feifan's hands.
He could only let Bieshu Feifan hold his face like that and stare straight at him.
Hiruzen Sarutobi could only try his best to persuade Bieshu Feifan.
"Feifan, I'm really not into this. Go find Danzo instead."
But Bieshu Feifan ignored him, simply staring at Hiruzen Sarutobi's face.
Hiruzen Sarutobi felt unbearably uncomfortable. He could only close his eyes and struggle with a pained expression.
After a while, Bieshu Feifan suddenly let go of him again and began meditating on the spot.
With his freedom restored, Hiruzen Sarutobi hurriedly rolled away, retreating from Bieshu Feifan in terror.
Bieshu Feifan worked hard to still his mind, but not through force.
The focus was on the mind, not effort.
He replaced all those miscellaneous thoughts with Hiruzen Sarutobi's face, trying to empty himself.
Then Bieshu Feifan really did empty himself.
Several hours passed.
Bieshu Feifan suddenly opened his eyes.
Damn it, I fell asleep!
