Chapter 11: Do you think you can defeat me?
Chapter 11: Do you think you can defeat me?
The curiosity of the Kumo Ninja Anbu who saw Tonari's actions was not diminished; instead, it intensified.
He witnessed Tonari's defensive maneuvers.
He was sure that after he kicked the opponent hard in the body, the opponent did not react at first.
But after being kicked away by himself, the opponent immediately curled up his body.
This would reduce the damage caused by the collision.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he understood that this kid could indeed see some of his movements, or rather, a little bit of his shadow.
Can an ordinary person see the movements of an Anbu ninja?
He pressed his feet hard against the ground, pushing his speed to the maximum.
He rushed directly to catch up with Tonari, who was still flying backward.
Following him, the short blade in his hand, made of unknown material, flew up and down. After a flash of white light, streaks of blood splattered on Tonari's body.
The Kumogakure Anbu never had any intention of letting Tonari go.
So these knife wounds, although they looked small, none of them were fatal.
BANG!!
Dozens of swords flew around quickly, and the Cloud Ninja Anbu reached out and grabbed Tonari with one hand, directly intercepting him from continuing to fly backward.
Pulling Tonari's clothes by the collar, holding him in his hand felt like holding a little chicken; he didn't feel heavy at all.
His eyes looked through the mask at Tonari in his grip with indifference.
No matter how amazing his reaction ability is, he is still just a child without chakra.
Little weakling!
At first glance, Tonari looked extremely miserable, covered in blood.
With his head hung low, he looked very embarrassed!
The Cloud Ninja hidden under the mask subconsciously curled the corners of his mouth.
No matter how special he is, he is just a little brat after all!
...
"Little guy, it looks like you're not in a very good condition right now?"
Just as Tonari silently endured the pain brought by the dense scars on his body, his consciousness once again appeared in that familiar sealed space.
At this moment, Tonari's appearance in the sealed space looked no different from that outside, with blood covering his entire body.
The Cloud Ninja Anbu was obviously very experienced in slashing, and each wound only looked terrible but not fatal.
Tonari raised his head weakly and glanced at Matatabi, who was lying inside the fence with a look of gloating on his face.
"Why... Matatabi, are you feeling sorry for me?"
He really didn't have the strength. Just saying these words made him feel like he had used up all his energy.
"..."
Matatabi's playful expression froze.
He didn't expect that the little guy in front of him was already in such a state, but still had the energy to tease him.
But soon, he put the matter aside for the time being; after all, there were more important things to address now!
"Now! Do you still want my power?
As long as you receive my power, this garbage outside can be torn to pieces with ease!
In fact, as long as you gain my power, you can become one of the few strong people in this world!
I can feel it in your heart right now.
Full of desire for something called 'power.'"
Matatabi looked at Tonari, who looked shaky, and his words were full of temptation.
Tonari did not look up again but just sat down on the ground silently.
And the Two-Tails did not rush Tonari to make his choice but quietly waited for his answer with a smile on his face.
This is a sure thing!
During this period, Tonari would come in to chat with him every day to get to know him better, and Matatabi knew this very well.
But isn't this also the process of Matatabi getting to know Tonari?
Matatabi thought he had almost seen through Tonari's character.
All he did was to save his own life, and at this critical moment when his life was at stake, Matatabi believed that the fearful Tonari would definitely choose to compromise!
The only sounds in the entire sealed space were those of Tonari and Matatabi's breathing.
A little bit of shortness of breath...
Respite...
Tonari was tired, while Matatabi was a little excited!
Finally!
The chance to regain freedom is right in front of you!
Only one step away from freedom!
With the strength of the seal on Tonari's body, as long as it can be allowed to come out successfully once, it is confident that it can completely control this body!
"Alas... it seems there is no other way..."
After a while, Tonari slowly raised his head, his back gradually straightening up, and looking at the happy Matatabi, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"In that case, we'll just have to die together."
Pah—
Tonari instantly collapsed, fell backward, and lay directly on the ground.
There was no hope in life!
The two different colored eyes of Matatabi widened instantly.
Although he didn't know the meaning of the word "dog leash," Matatabi could roughly guess that it was not a good term.
What is this for?
Have you given up resistance?
Tonari pursed his lips, trying not to reveal his emotions...
Hold on!
"What... do you mean?" Matatabi said in a deep voice.
Sitting up again, Tonari raised his head and looked up at Matatabi, who was much taller than him even when lying on the ground.
He spread his hands, looking very helpless, "You can see that the opponent is a ninja, and a malnourished child like me will definitely not be able to deal with it.
Even now, I am covered with wounds and have become a piece of fish on the other side's chopping board, at the mercy of others. What can I do? I am also helpless——"
"..."
Matatabi remained silent.
"Anyway, even if I use your power, I will just become your puppet in the end, which is no different from dying directly.
On the contrary, I might die more easily this way. Fighting desperately is too tiring!
Maybe...
The more I resist, the more excited he becomes! He has the potential to be a pervert.
The loss outweighs the gain..."
Tonari looked at the silent Matatabi and couldn't hold back any longer, so he continued, "But have you ever thought about what the final outcome of my current situation will be?"
"Indeed, I may not die immediately. I may be captured by the Cloud Ninja and tortured. They may even read my memory to get the information they want. Such a development may make me miserable."
"But what about you?"
"As the Two-Tails, you are a weapon of war that the Hidden Cloud Village will never give up. What will you do if I am captured?"
"The best outcome would be to change to a different container and seal you tightly without giving you any breathing space. It would be virtually impossible for you to break free.
Even if you are a tailed beast with powerful chakra, I believe you have seen how powerful the Hidden Cloud Village is."
"What's the worst that can happen? You'll leave with me!"
"I know that you tailed beasts are very special. You are carriers of some special chakra. You will not really die. In three years, or at most five years, you will be able to fully recover!
But how long can you stay at large? The Hidden Cloud Village will definitely come after you again! This is your fate; you can't escape it!"
"Moreover, I also learned from the old man who sealed you into me that back then, you seemed to be more unwilling to disappear from this world for a few years, right?"
"So, do you really think that my current situation has nothing to do with you?"
"Do you really think that if I feel bad, you will feel good too?"
Tonari said a lot of words, and he didn't look half dead at all.
Essentially, this is inside his body, not his real body. It is a carrier of consciousness. It just looks a little miserable, not as bleak as it is outside.
Maybe he was a little weak when he first came in, but he has recovered a lot now.
After listening to what Tonari said, Matatabi's smile had faded.
This dark sealed space returned to silence again.
There were only four eyes, staring at each other silently.
"So, you think you have me in your hands?" For the first time, Matatabi's voice sounded icy cold.
