Kikyo City

Looking at the tall city walls of Kikyo City, even the calm Nangong Zhe couldn’t help but relax a little.

In fact, the distance from the Land of Fire to Kikyo City, a border city, is not far away, but Nangong Tetsu couldn’t walk in a straight line.

There are countless dangerous things in the desert such as quicksand on the straight-line distance, and there are no supply points among them.

It’s just that Nangongzhe is fine, relying on his physical strength and endurance to endure it, he came over, and it didn’t take such a long time at all.

But Zhenbai is different, although Zhenbai’s physical strength is still excellent compared to ordinary people. But if it is compared with ninjas, it is still very insufficient. After all, the weapons cultivated by ninjas to adapt to various harsh environments are not understandable by ordinary people.

How strong is the ninja’s tenacious will to survive?

Nangong Zhe had witnessed with his own eyes that an enemy ninja was stabbed with no less than ten blood holes all over his body, and the flowing blood could almost stain the ground under his feet.

But it was such an enemy, but he hacked to death more than a dozen Konoha Shinobi forcibly before he died of exhaustion.

This is ninja.

“Gong Gong, is this the Kikyo City…” Zhenbai followed up and saw the majestic city in front of him, and a burst of exclamation interrupted Nangongzhe’s thoughts: “It’s so big!”

Except for some magnificent giant cities in the capital, there are no huge cities in the other towns in the Kingdom of Fire.

The same is true for other countries, because the ninjas used as the main means of aggression in this era cannot be resisted by ordinary walls at all, and the high walls that can resist ninjas and hinder Chakra are expensive, so most places are not There is such a thing as a city wall.

“This Kikyo City was originally jointly funded and built by the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind, and the two countries once made an agreement that no war will be waged in this city.” Nangongzhe looked at this majestic city with emotion: “However, every time When there is a war between the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind, this place will be a huge meat grinder. Because its city walls are extremely good at defending against ninjas, it is almost a battleground for both sides, and it is used to store armaments.”

“Here… is the meat grinder?”Zhenbai was surprised for a while.

“That’s right!” Nangong Zhe nodded, and continued: “Although I don’t know the specific situation of World War II, because I first joined the Sand Ninja Battlefield in the Third World War, I have also experienced some see-saw attacks and defenses here. Then In the second battle, both sides suffered heavy losses. Konoha lost at least 300 ninja lives here, and Sand Ninja suffered more casualties because of the lack of medical ninjas. We have no way to get specific data, but at least there are More than five hundred.”

“…”

After hearing Nangong Zhe’s narration, Zhenbai fell silent.

In fact, when the two were on the road, they also encountered bandits and robbers. Zhenbai also saw Nangong Zhe’s methods against these people. Even though Nangongzhe tried to use the least bloody method, he tried to avoid Zhenbai as much as possible. But it is still inevitable to be hit by Zhenbai a few times.

Zhenbai still remembers that scene very clearly.

But that’s just a few robbers, at most five or six people can cause such a tragic image. Not to mention the nearly eight or nine hundred people that Nangong Zhe said were together. And this is only the death toll, the number of injured will only be more.

“Okay…” Seeing that Zhenbai was a little depressed, Nangong Zhe patted her on the head: “These things are over, and the ninja world will be peaceful and stable one day. This is what we ninjas have always been thinking about. .”

“Hmm…” Zhenbai nodded without saying anything.

The two walked to the gate of Kikyo City, submitted their IDs and entered the city.

Looking at the hustle and bustle of the city, Zhenbai’s sadness seems to have faded a lot.

Looking at the lively Mabai running around in the street, Nangong Zhe finally smiled.

In fact, before Nangongzhe entered the city just now, he had already made some guesses when he saw Zhenbai’s expression.

How old is Zhenbai? But he can make the decision to travel to various countries in this way. Nan Gongzhe believed that no matter what kind of parents they were, they would not allow their helpless children to do such a thing, and no one even came to see him off when they set off.

It can only prove that Zhenbai’s parents may not be alive.

And what is the most likely reason for the death of the ninja’s parents?

Chaos!

So Zhenbai just now was not only sad about the death of so many people, but also more likely to be sad about the departure of his relatives.

Of course, all of this is Nangong Zhe’s guess and cannot be confirmed. But it also made Nangongzhe feel more compassion in his heart.

The experience of struggling to survive in the small town under Konoha is still vivid in my mind. How difficult it is for a child without strength to survive in such troubled times.

The Nangong brothers and sisters did it! Zhenbai did it too!

All kinds of hardships are not humane.

After wandering around for a while, the two quickly found a hotel to stay.

Although the law and order in Kikyo City where the two are located is extremely good. But Nangong Tetsu, as a hired ninja who wants to protect Zhenbai, still has to keep vigil for Zhenbai.

Ninja can quickly put himself into a deep sleep, and he can regain his spirit within 30 to 40 minutes of deep sleep, and even under special circumstances, he can not sleep for nearly a week.

So, in fact, Nangong Zhe would keep vigil for Zhenbai every night.

The moon is extraordinarily bright tonight. There is not even a cloud in the sky thousands of miles away. Only the bright moonlight and dots of starlight dotted the black curtain of the night sky.

The two’s hotel was not far from the downtown area, and they could see the bright lights outside through the window.

Mashiro moved an easel, drawing board, and many brushes and paints from his room. Start painting slowly.

Zhenbai at this moment is extraordinarily pious and holy.

It seems that what I am facing is not just a drawing board, but the whole bright world.

The look in a pair of eyes is extremely shining.

If you insist on a metaphor, Zhenbai at this moment is like Nangong Zhe when he was crazy about sword practice.

The breeze came, bringing a bit of coolness to dispel the scorching heat of the desert for Nangong Zhe.

Nangongzhe unknowingly slept on the roof opposite Zhenbai.

When Nangong Zhe opened his eyes again, the east of the sky was already pale.

Nangong Zhe scratched his head, since the end of the war, his vigilance had dropped a bit. How could he do such a thing that he could fall asleep at night.

However, Nangong Zhe actually knew that he was only in a light sleep, and he would definitely respond to any disturbance. But it’s not good after all, so I secretly wrote it down to warn myself.

Looking down, Zhenbai’s drawing board from last night was still on the balcony. Out of curiosity, I jumped down and wanted to take a look.
