Chapter 44: 44
The next day.
Kisame repeatedly investigated and confirmed that there was no ambush outside the hotel, before he walked out of the lobby and came to the training ground in Konoha Village.
'Boom! boom! boom!'
He successively tested stones, trees, and steel plates against his head, all of which were ruthlessly smashed by his hammerhead.
Kisame found that the "defense breaking" ability of the Kabutowari seems to use the principle of vibration to change the natural frequency of the target at the moment of attack, causing it to resonate and eventually destroy its internal structure.
From this point of view, Tsunade's physical fitness is really high, as when she took Kisame's headbutt at full strength, she was just dizzy.
However, when you think about it, it's actually not outrageous.
After all, in the anime, when Tsunade was defeated by Uchiha Madara and she didn't die. She was still young and beautiful at the age of seventy. Her vitality was so powerful that it really made people sigh.
After some practice and further familiarity with the "Defense break", Kisame left the training ground to return to the hotel.
'Huh?'
On the way back, he accidentally saw a familiar figure.
Pink top, long black curly hair, big eyes.
It's Kurenai Yuhi.
She was sobbing softly as she walked, wiping her tears with her little hands, looking very sad.
As we all know, when Kisame is not fighting with people, he is a big warm man.
So, he walked straight over, quickly moved shoulder to shoulder with Kurenai, and asked her, "What's the matter with you?"
Kurenai Yuhi raised her head and found that it was Kisame who asked her. She was stunned for a moment, as a trace of fear appeared on the baby's fat face.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not malicious. If you don't want to say it, forget it."
Kisame took two steps back.
Kurenai Yuhi was silent for a moment, but in the end, she couldn't hold back, and she said all the grievances in her heart.
It turn out that Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma quarreled.
That day, after she got the recording from Kisame, she ran to the infirmary to visit Asuma, but the latter's self-esteem was low, as he thought that Kurenai and Kisame had reached some kind of shameful deal for the recording, and then became suspicious of her.
The explanation gradually turned into an argument.
They had a cold war for several days after that.
"Isn't it normal for little lovers to quarrel. Don't worry, you and Asma will come together at the end." After listening to her story, he spoke comfortably.
Hearing these words, Kurenai shook her head and said with tears in her eyes:
"Asuma found me just now and said he will be leaving Konoha and wouldn't come back for a long time. He is going to... break up with me."
'Oh?'
When Kurenai said this, Kisame remembered that in the anime Asuma did leave Konoha when he was young and went to the capital of the Land of Fire for a few years.
Now, it seems that this quarrel caused him to leave the village earlier?
"That... Hoshigaki Kisame, can you help me persuade Asuma?"
Kurenai looked at Kisame pitifully as she asked, and due to nervousness, she put her hands on her chest and kept turning her fingers in circles.
In fact, she originally wanted to go to the hotel to find Kisame, because only he could explain the matter clearly and give her a clean slate.
"Persuade?"
Facing Kurenai's request, Kisame raised his fist that is as big as a watermelon, and said to her with a smile, "You decide, since I can only persuade him with this."
As soon as the words fell, Kisame suddenly glanced at the direction behind Kurenai, and said: "I'll hide it first."
"Kurenai..." Asuma was shocked.
"Don't go"
With red eyes, she whispered, tears streaming down her face.
In the face of the lover's bitter pleading.
"Sorry, I have to go."
Asuma clenched his fists tightly and broke away from Kurenai's embrace with a cruel heart, and walked forward without looking back.
Kurenai Yuhi's hands hung in the air as she stood there in despair.
Alas, there is no cure for delusional guys.
Kisame looked at Asuma's retreating back, shook his head, and walked out from the corner.
"Sorry, I couldn't help you."
He took back the chakra thread that was wrapped around her, and was about to turn around and leave.
At this time.
Kurenai's emotions broke out completely, and she threw herself into Kisame's arms and started crying loudly.
Soon, her tears soaked Kisame's clothes.
Kisame didn't say anything, he just stood there silently. Because he knew that the lovelorn girl in front of him needed a shoulder at this moment.
After a long time.
Kurenai's tears gradually dried, and her loud cry turned into a low sob.
"Sorry..."
Realizing her unbecoming behaviour, she raised her head and timidly apologized to Kisame.
"It's okay. When you're done crying, just look forward."
Kisame said, and handed over a handkerchief. At the same time, he said to Kurenai silently in his heart, at least you don't have to be a widow in the future.
"Thanks."
Kurenai Yuhi took the handkerchief and looked up at the tall man with angular face, and suddenly felt an inexplicable throbbing.
She is a good girl in the family and a female student in the ninja school. She lives a boring life with the rules and regulations, so she is especially attracted to the rebellious bad boy like Asuma.
But she suddenly discovered that in Kisame, the rebellious temperament that is stronger than anything she saw, and it can even be said to be an unrestrained primitive wildness.
His personal charm does not come from his looks, but from his temperament.
"Is there something on my face?"
Kisame's question interrupted Kurenai Yuhi's wild thoughts.
"No, no..." She hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to look at Kisame again, and with a blushing face, she returned the handkerchief.
"You keep it."
Kisame smiled, no longer waited as he has nothing to do, and turned to leave.
Watching his tall back walk away.
"You... will you come to Konoha in the future?"
Kurenai Yuhi gathered up her courage and shouted.
Kisame paused, turned half of his face bacy, and said meaningfully to Kurenai:
"The next time we meet, maybe it will be on the battlefield."
Kurenai was shocked, and just stared blankly at Kisame disappearing into the vast sea of people.
