Chapter 10: Fuck it, I don't want to be a human being anymore!
-----
Of course, Tonari would not know what happened at the caravan.
Now there was only one thing on his mind.
Get to the Fire Nation as soon as possible!
After a night of rapid travel, shuttling through the dense jungle, even though he had a lot of experience navigating through such terrain, his clothes were still a little torn, and there were some major scratches on his face and body.
With the support of Bingliang Pills, Tonari did not feel exhausted.
Looking at the boundary marker in front of him representing the border of the Fire Nation, Tonari did not dare to let his guard down.
The more moments like this arise, the more we cannot relax.
What's more, even if we enter the Land of Fire, it doesn't mean we are safe. We are still a long way from Konoha.
Taking a deep breath, he thought, "Huh, I don't know if it's because I'm so handsome that I have a special talent, or if the effect of the Bingliang Pills is really outstanding. After one night and one morning, I don't feel tired at all."
Tonari stroked his hair, which had grown a bit long from neglect, and muttered to himself.
Continuity is still very important!
Then, as if he had thought of something, Tonari touched his belly and said, "Could it be because of you? Beautiful..."
Regarding this, Toneri, who had become a Jinchūriki for the first time, was really a little unsure.
He looked at his arms, where his clothes were accidentally torn, and due to the sharp branches, his skin was also scratched.
Fortunately, Tonari had enough experience and immediately wiped off the blood stains remaining on the branch after being scratched.
However, when he looked at the wound on his arm again, he found that it had healed without any visible scar at all.
Tonari was a little shocked, thinking of the anime he had watched before, where characters could heal very quickly from injuries.
This is most likely one of the few benefits of being a Jinchūriki.
Thinking of this, Tonari touched his face and said, "In that case, I don't have to worry about getting scars on my handsome face anymore!"
Tsk tsk - handsome people are always remembered by others...
Without stopping, the border of the Fire Nation was right before his eyes.
After taking a deep breath, he prepared to take a big step forward.
Now, Konoha's heavy troops should be deployed in the Land of Rain, but he didn't know whether the war there had ended yet.
Whoosh——
As soon as Tonari raised his foot, the hairs on his body stood up!
That mysterious sixth sense made his face change suddenly.
A quick roll to the side.
BANG!!
A black kunai was nailed firmly to the tree behind where he had just stood.
The kunai didn't move at all.
But the small tree was shaking slightly after being struck.
"Eh——"
A light exclamation came from a tree not far behind Tonari.
It was the Kumogakure Anbu ninja with a special summoning beast. He had a white mask that completely covered his face and looked very strong.
The Cloud Ninja was also a little surprised at this time. He thought that his attack was sure to hit, but it had been dodged by this kid at the last moment.
He had been following Tonari for some time.
He had confirmed that the brat had no chakra and was not a ninja, thus he chose to act at the border of the Fire Country.
Although he didn't believe that a little kid could take away the Two-Tails, which was a problem for the entire Hidden Cloud Village, he had his orders as the Anbu ninja responsible for tracking the Two-Tails.
Of course, the mission was to bring the kid back alive, so he didn't use his full strength with the kunai just now, nor did he intend to kill.
But even so, the fact that a kid who wasn't a ninja could dodge his sneak attack was enough to surprise him.
Tonari dodged the attack by rolling sideways and quickly squatted down, not caring about the dust on his body, and looked in the direction where the kunai had come from.
Tonari's pupils contracted, his heart began to race, and his adrenaline surged rapidly.
Cloud Ninja Anbu!
Although he had a serious expression, Tonari's heart was full of helplessness.
The situation that he had most feared finally happened.
Seeing the animal on the other person's shoulder, he roughly guessed what was going on.
The feeling of helplessness in his heart became even worse.
No matter how careful he was, and no matter how much he overestimated ninja abilities…
He underestimated them.
Whoosh——
The figure in sight suddenly disappeared, and Tonari could only barely catch a glimpse of a shadow.
I can see it!
Another quick roll!
Even though he knew the chances of escape were very slim, asking him to surrender was definitely impossible!
At this moment, Tonari only had one thought in his mind…
Let me survive this time, and I will never show up until I have the strength!
Just give me a chance to regroup, and I can make it to the end!
BANG!!
The Kumogakure Anbu appeared at the place where Tonari had just crouched, and when he saw Tonari dodging again, the surprise in his eyes grew.
He couldn't help but feel curious.
Even though he was a ninja good at tracking, fighting was relatively not his forte. But as Cloud Ninjas, few of them had poor physical conditioning, so he definitely wouldn't be weak in combat.
Facing a powerless kid, he had failed twice.
After dodging, Tonari immediately found a relatively safe position. He did not stand up, but maintained a half-kneeling posture, ready to spring into action.
This posture had become a "unique skill" he had honed on the battlefield.
It maximized the power of his legs and burst out with speed, allowing him to dodge unnecessary attacks.
At the same time, Tonari felt a strong desire to survive.
He could see it!
He could see the other person's movements with his own naked eyes!
Although it was very difficult, he could only glimpse a little shadow of the running track!
But being able to see even that much meant he wasn't fighting a jōnin!
Zheng——
The Cloud Ninja Anbu slowly drew a dagger from his back.
Seeing Tonari looking at him warily, his curiosity deepened.
What was the reason that allowed a little kid with no chakra to dodge two of his attacks?
What could make this little devil look at him without a trace of fear?
He was used to the way civilians reacted to him; this kid was really special.
However, he didn't voice his thoughts.
He was ANBU!
Talking is a very cheap thing. What he needed to do was to make the other party reveal everything before he opened his mouth!
Getting people to talk was one of the essential skills of Anbu!
Coincidentally, apart from tracking, his second best trait was interrogation!
The Cloud Ninja made a few fancy moves with his knife in the air.
He acknowledged that the two previous failures had resulted from his underestimation of the kid, but this time would be different!
Tonari half-knelt on the ground, staring closely at the burly man in front of him. His body size was a genuine concern compared to the other.
Even if the opponent wasn't a ninja, it was likely Tonari wouldn't be able to handle him.
The knife flashed ominously.
The Cloud Ninja Anbu disappeared again!
Tonari opened his eyes wide!
Where... where... where...
He roared in his mind.
I can see...
Peng——
A figure suddenly appeared in front of him, with one foot raised high.
When Tonari saw the other person, it was too late.
"Puff…"
Hot blood spurted out of his mouth uncontrollably.
He had been kicked hard in the stomach.
His thin body was simply unable to block the opponent's attack.
That ridiculous desire to survive seemed to mock the weak Tonari.
How can a little fellow who can't even see the difference in strength possibly block the attack of a real ninja, and not just any ordinary ninja!
Damn the desire to survive!
...
Tonari was kicked away.
The only thing he could do at this moment was to fight against the urge to vomit and curl up his body with sheer willpower.
He used his hands to protect his head from hitting the hard ground and trees.
This became the only thing he could do.
To sum it up in one sentence...
No power to resist!
Fuck it, I don't want to be a human being anymore!!!
