Even he himself didn't know when it started, but his relationship with Araki had reversed in terms of age. Araki spoke more like his older brother, especially in his tone, which was becoming more and more like his older sister's.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
" Araki, you just wait! When I become Hokage, I'll definitely put you in solitary confinement too!"
"By then, no one will be able to save you!"
"Let me show you how helpless I feel right now!"
"Snort!"
Nawaki clenched his fists tightly, already imagining that scene. At that time, the only one who could save Araki might be his older sister.
My older sister wouldn't save them. By then, they'd all grown up. She wouldn't get involved in their playful antics. Nawaki was very confident about this.
Unless Araki becomes his brother-in-law...
A strange thought suddenly popped into Nawaki's mind, but he immediately shook his head and dismissed this idea, which even he found bizarre.
Impossible!
Araki is just my older sister's apprentice!
How could a disciple possibly be with his teacher!
not to mention...
My older sister is a full thirteen years older than Araki, an age difference greater than Araki's actual age. Who would want an older woman like that?
Araki had no idea what was going through Nawaki's mind, and he never imagined that half a year could have driven Nawaki to this state.
At this time, he needs to go home to put down his schoolbag, routinely meet with Kushina to say hello, and then have his nightly passionate rendezvous with Might Teacher Duy.
However...
Just as Araki reached the door...
He suddenly heard a series of banging and cracking sounds coming from inside the door.
"No! Stop! Stop it now!"
at the same time.
A struggling woman's voice came through the doorway.
It reached Araki's ears clearly.
Chapter 11 Invaders of Kumogakure
???
Upon hearing the sounds from inside, Araki was immediately filled with a host of questions.
What's going on?
It really is Kushina's voice!
and...
I'm struggling and excited!
Are they playing a role-playing game with Mikoto?
Araki instinctively had this thought, because in the past six months, Uchiha Mikoto had been a frequent visitor to their home.
He occasionally slept with Kushina.
The speed at which the friendship between the two best friends deepened left Araki speechless.
even...
Araki felt that Mikoto had spent more time at his house than he had!
This left Araki somewhat bewildered at times. It was his home, yet these two girls had taken over, leaving him feeling both apprehensive and expectant every time he returned.
I'm anxious because I'm afraid I'll see something...
What I'm looking forward to is what I'm afraid to see...
Even Araki himself didn't know if he wanted to see something...
"Help!"
Kushina's voice rang out again, reaching Araki's ears through the door. The roar was incredibly realistic, almost as if it were real.
If Araki hadn't known that Mikoto was often here, and if the two girls hadn't been so outgoing, he probably would have really thought something indecent had happened.
So... now... the question is...!
Should we go in?
Araki slowly reached out his hand, inching closer to the doorknob. It would be a lie to say he wasn't interested in the tricks the two girls inside were up to!
Especially the scream just now...
Just thinking about the scenes inside is exciting!
Maybe the two of them are changing clothes again!
or...
Seize this opportunity...
Let's pretend something happened to Kushina!
I rushed in to help Kushina, and if I accidentally saw something, there shouldn't be any problem, right?
Thinking about this...
Araki immediately became eager to try.
He decided to rush in with lightning speed, giving Kushina and Mikoto inside no time to react. Such opportunities to feast their eyes were truly rare.
In an instant.
Araki opened the door as quickly as he could.
Creak!
As the door opened, the scene inside came into Araki's view, and it was completely different from what he had imagined.
At this very moment.
Inside the room, three men were holding Kushina captive, one of whom was using rope to tie Kushina wrists, which were forcibly behind her back.
this...
Araki was stunned.
The people inside the house were also stunned when they saw Araki.
The scene fell silent.
" Araki, save me! They're trying to take me away!"
Upon seeing Araki, Kushina seemed to grasp at a straw, and her struggles suddenly intensified, almost causing her to break free from the three men's control.
Kushina said this...
The three men's faces immediately darkened, and they exchanged glances.
"Our mission is to take this girl back. Everyone else is unimportant!" the man with stitches on his face said coldly as he finished tying the ropes.
"Boss, let's just get rid of this kid. If he runs out and reports back, things will get really complicated." The man on the left stared at Araki, his eyes flashing with a fierce light. A Kunai had appeared in his hand at some point, its gleaming blade exceptionally sharp.
"Agreed." The man on the right nodded.
"Okay, hurry up, don't make any more noise. We need to act quickly!" the scarred man said.
"Yes!"
The two men in front responded simultaneously, both with wicked smiles on their faces. They stared at Araki as if he were a Araki bad wolf eyeing a little white rabbit, completely under their control.
" Araki, forget about me, run!"
Just then, Kushina's voice rang out again, her urgency and concern completely overshadowing her previous fear and panic.
Now she realized what was happening!
When she saw Araki just now, she felt a sense of relief, as if she had finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel, and instinctively wanted Araki to save her.
but...
When she saw the two men about to attack Araki and say they were going to kill Araki, she panicked.
no!
We can't let Araki die here!
She knew their goal very well. She wasn't in immediate danger, Araki should focus on saving himself first and then try to get help from the village.
"Trying to run now?"
The scarred-faced man standing behind Kushina, binding her, sneered. He looked at Araki as if he were looking at a dead man, shaking his head and saying, "Too late!"
In an instant, the two men walked towards Araki together, each holding a sharp ninja tool like Kunai, as if they wanted to tear Araki apart.
Faced with this situation...
Kushina's expression grew even more anxious.
Tears welled up instantly.
" Araki, run! Don't worry about me, run!"
Kushina was filled with regret. She regretted calling out to Araki to save him; she should have let Araki run away immediately.
Now, due to his own mistake, Araki's life could be in danger.
This moment.
Kushina was extremely anxious.
But there was nothing they could do.
All I could do was stare wide-eyed at everything happening before me, feeling utterly powerless, and faint, unfamiliar voices began to surface in my mind.
