Chapter Forty-Four: The Invader

  That's right! I think what I want to say is that the protagonist is actually less than six years old.

  The so-called physical age affects psychological age

  Moreover, Mingming was still just a little kid at six years old.

  There aren't so many strange ideas, the main character is very [innocent].

  Everyone wants the protagonist to get married so early

  It seems inappropriate to say

  It's clear that there will be six more years in Konoha

  It's just making friends, don't think so crookedly.

  The protagonist's personality is like this, and he's still young.

  There will be opportunities for changes, you can give your opinions, and hope that the protagonist leans towards what kind of personality.

  I'll consider it, no need for a stallion, I don't like it.

  Finally thank you all for your comments and votes!

  That's it!

  After Kunagiri carefully laid me down on the hammock while I was half asleep, Shiraki also returned to the room.

  After checking the adult's body, he quietly continued his training in a corner of the room, without asking Kimaru anything.

  It was instead Kunmaru who couldn't bear the silence, speaking up first with a hint of puzzlement and tension: "Haku, you're not asking why?" He asked him why he went out with the lord, only to have the lord return in such a state.

  "Adults are fine." Bai said, pointing out the most important thing to him or them, the safety of adults is the highest principle. "It's just a temporary mental excitement, in order to recover quickly, so I fell asleep on my own, according to my guess, it should be this body's self-defense mechanism." Although I didn't mention losing control, Bai still had some realization, Bai knew that since the incident at the riverbank, adults would have similar symptoms every now and then. Bai didn't know the reason, but vaguely felt that it might have something to do with my left eye.

  Gently rub the area around your left eye.

  What triggered my loss of control? Bai was unclear, and even he didn't know when adults were losing control. All he knew was that after losing control, adults would usually fall into a deep sleep, during which they seemed to have no defensive or alert abilities at all, not even sensing the approach of killing intent, just like an ordinary child without any strength.

  "Adults will fall into a deep sleep like this at intervals, the duration of which varies from person to person, sometimes as short as one or two hours, and sometimes exceeding ten hours. At this time, adults have no ability to resist external enemies, so during this period, we must be especially careful and vigilant!"

  "A deep sleep? Can't it wake others up?"

  "When adults sleep soundly, they are very calm and not like usual... Adults rarely get to sleep so soundly, so you don't have to blame yourself, this is a good thing for the adult." Bai saw Jun Maluo suddenly open his eyes wide and stare at him, lightly laughing: "Why look at me like that? Your face is smiling, but your eyes reveal a faint apology, and your lips are also bitten. Don't mind it, the adult won't blame you."

  The adults have never really blamed us before. This thought flashed through both Shirakawa and Kuzuhara's minds at the same time.

  He nodded slightly and then sat down on the ground next to the hammock, starting his own practice.

  They have no spare time, only training can make them stronger!

  The two of us joined forces and even the unsealed adults couldn't withstand it! The adult said: Only the strong have the right to choose! We must become stronger, only by becoming stronger can we help the adult!

  ※※※

  "White Lord, Lord Malakai, Mr. Moon, I'm Hong Ye, are you all inside?!" A flustered and anxious voice came from outside the room door, accompanied by a violent knocking sound.

  Bai He and Jun Mochiro woke up from their reverie, and their eyebrows furrowed at the same time. They didn't want anything that might disturb my rare rest to appear.

  Everyone else in the compound also knew about this, and usually when they had something to ask for, they would lightly knock on the door and leave a note outside. Ever since the first kid who came looking for me directly kicked down the door and woke me up, anyone who came looking for us afterwards would remember to knock on the door, because that kid's foot went missing the next day.

  It was another huge slamming sound, except for the last time the base entrance collapsed, there has been no such disturbance, but also not as urgent as this.

  Something big might have happened! thought Shirakawa Kaito.

  Jun Maluo went over to open the door after seeing Bai Dian nod, and said in a cold voice: "Something's up!" Unspoken words, if there's nothing going on, you can die!

  Akane Kōji stood before Kimura with some trepidation.

  Among the children in the base, they feared Kumaru the most. Although he was not very old and had only been there for a short time, his special blood inheritance made him extremely powerful. Every time they engaged in actual combat training with him, it would only end after his opponent fell to the ground. There were even several instances where he almost killed his opponents due to over-excitement, but was stopped by Hakuren's intervention.

  Even once, White Lord was injured by Kimarou while trying to protect two five-year-old children who had just arrived. At that time, most of the children thought they were going to die, and about a third of them were seriously injured to the point where at least one foot had entered hell. If it weren't for Mr. Tsuki from the infirmary, who happened to be passing by the training grounds, not only would he have stopped Kimarou in an instant, but also immediately treated us... However, their disrespect towards Lord Orochimaru is still unforgivable!

  Hong Yeshang clenched his fists tightly.

  "Why are you revealing a killing aura and provoking me? Hmm?" Kuma Ryou looked at Akatsuki no Aka, who had come to knock on the door with an urgent matter, but was now lost in thought in front of him. If Akatsuki no Aka had come here just to do this, then he wouldn't mind making this guy, who wanted to disturb his sleep, disappear!

  "I... I was thinking... no..." Akane Kouno's words were lost under the murderous intent of Kimura, almost forgetting what she wanted to say.

  "Kunmaru!" A gentle voice echoed in the room, interrupting Kunmaru's murderous intent. "I think Akano wouldn't casually come to disturb you, would she? Akano."

  "Tell me, what's going on!" Bai walked to the door of the house, standing shoulder to shoulder with Junmaro.

  Bai Jun is usually very gentle and kind to everyone, often helping younger children. However, if someone insults Dr. Yue of the medical room, Bai Jun will strike back faster, more fiercely, and more ruthlessly than even Gunma Jun!

  Just like now, Hakuren's face still has a calm and serene expression, but beneath this tranquility, the hidden murderous intent may be even greater than that of Kimimaro.

  "That's it! It seems like the ninja has invaded the base, and Kawahara-san is already dead!" Akane Kouno thought that this sentence might be the fastest speech speed in his life.

  "That has nothing to do with us!" Two voices sounded at the same time, although Mr. Kawahara was relatively more in contact with them, but that's all, just knowing each other.

  "The enemy... the enemy is very powerful, Kiwami-sama, Nanachi-sama and Suzuhara-sama have all been killed, more than ten children have died, and many more are injured. Currently, only Yamajiro-sama and Kawahigashi-sama are holding out at the third gate, which is why I've come to find you!" Akano's life felt tied to his words as he spoke in a rapid, even tone, recounting the current situation.

  "Kigen, Shichi, and Ryogen? They're pretty strong. The three of them together could probably take on Kuma in a normal state." White thought about the deceased's abilities, hoping to gather more intel.

  Kunimaru had no interest in the dead, "The third gate? Then only the fourth gate is left and it's almost completely invaded!" Kunimaru thought about the base's terrain.

  "Can't communicate? What's his attitude?" Bai asked.

  Akane Kōya shook her head, "Mr. Kawahara was killed before he could even negotiate, they struck fast and mercilessly, without leaving any room for mercy! Luckily it's just the right time for our morning training session, everyone...". Akane looked at Shirakawa Kizuna, "...most people were already on the battlefield practicing, which saved us some time gathering, and we barely managed to hold off the invaders at the third gate!"

  "How did Kawahara die? How many people were involved in the fight? Has the identity of the opponent been confirmed?" Bai wanted to know more about the situation.

  "Not quite sure, the other side threw a moving thing at Kawahara-san and he immediately exploded to death. It looked like the damage from an explosive symbol attack, but it was much more powerful than that. Kibitsu-kun also died instantly, but there didn't seem to be many of those things on them, and we were already inside the cave so they couldn't use them anymore... or maybe they just chose not to?"

  "Moreover, they use a lot of earth concealment ninjutsu, seemingly related to the Iwagakure ninja. It's unclear whether they're renegade ninja or not. We've already killed four people, but the remaining enemies are too strong and we can't defeat them. Many children have also been injured, so... that's why we came to find you."

  "Kawahara-sensei also has the agility of a mid-level ninja, in an instant... it's very dangerous, 'the probability of threatening adults is high!' Kimaru, let's go! I hope we can finish before the adults wake up, lead the way! Akano."
