Behind the Scenes from Naruto

Chapter 26 - 26: Haku



Terumi Mei gave Uehara a bag of biscuits. He was so angry and depressed. But the bag of biscuits in his hand was robbed, and Uehara's mood worsened.

Uehara Naraku walked to the stray kid who snatched his cookies, perhaps because the kid is too hungry, he swallowed it all after two bites.

"Hey…"

Uehara Naraku frowned, wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say it. After all, he didn't lack biscuits. He is a rich man with a net worth of 100 million exploding tags.

"I finished eating it all."

The stray child hurriedly stuffed the crumbs of biscuit in his mouth, curled up into a ball, carefully raised his head, and looked at Uehara: "Sorry, I have been hungry for three days, and the cookies are gone. Now, if you want to hit or kill me, you can do it!"

"You!"

Uehara Naraku saw the unconcealable beauty in the dirty face, and the words "Beautiful child" came to Uehara's mind subconsciously.

Are Ninja's face standard now so high?

Even a street beggar looks so cute?

Uehara Naraku saw the tramp lowered her head again, and decided to forgive her in his heart. He stood beside her and asked in a low voice, "Hey, what is your name, are you still hungry?"

"My name is Haku."

The stray kid shrank and shook her head, and hugged her knees tightly. Maybe this little girl is really afraid of being beaten?

"..."

Uehara Naraku looked up at the sky.

What kind of luck today is!

He worked so hard for three days in Water Country, but he did not find any traces of Haku. It happened that Terumi gave him a bag of biscuits, which brought out the hungry Haku.

Haku has been hiding here, but he was afraid that the ninjas would find him. He didn't dare to come forward until he saw Terumi and the two ninjas leave.

Uehara Naraku looked at the stray child squatting in front of him, still wanting to confirm again: "Well, do you have a bloodline limit? Such as ice or something..."

"..."

Haku's body trembled, he got up and staggered a few steps, and quickly rushed into the alleys of the town.

Because he knows that in this country, people with bloodline limits are evil, and Uehara Naraku may be the one who advocates the elimination of bloodline limits.

"Hey, don't run!"

Uehara Naraku has determined Haku's identity in his heart, he hurriedly chased after him and grab his collar then whispering: "Do you just want to escape?"

Haku lowered his head and hesitated for a while, then whispered: "Then...If I pick up food tomorrow, can I give it to you? I will give it to you tomorrow or the day after tomorrow when I search for food. It might take three days to find something to eat."

"I'm not hungry!"

Uehara Naraku's face is a bit unsightly.

Haku glanced at him cautiously, and whispered: "But I secretly saw you looking for food near the garbage dump for a day..."

"I didn't come to the garbage dump to find food."

Uehara Naraku is helpless, he looked at the dirty Haku in front of him, and said solemnly: "I'm here to find you, I need your ice release ninjutsu...to be exact it's your ability to create ice and snow."

Haku raised his head curiously, frowned his brow, and asked softly: "But what will I do?"

"Let me think about it."

Uehara Naraku touched his chin and thought for a while, then made his suggestion: "Well, you can help me make an iced juice in summer."

"Oh?"

Haku's eyes flashed, he grabbed the corner of Uehara's clothes, and whispered: "Then shall we look for food in the garbage dump together in the future?"

Uehara Naraku: "..."

Damn, do I look like a beggar?

Uehara Naraku suppressed the helplessness in his heart, he patted Haku's shoulders and sighed: "Were not going to the garbage dump to find food... No, we don't need to go to the garbage dump to find food. You will follow me in the future."

"Ok."

Haku nodded seriously, and pulled Uehara's clothes again, and whispered: "Then...Where are we going to find food now?"

Uehara Naraku rubbed his cheeks, and put on a gentle face: "Anyway... just follow me, and talk less nonsense!"

"What?"

Haku subconsciously covered his lips.

Although the two people are the same age, Uehara Naraku still thinks that the communication between him and Haku is a little bit complicated. It may be that Haku has always thought that Uehara and himself are the same kind because he accepted the cookies that Terumi Mei gave to him.

When Haku saw Uehara Naraku sitting on a rock by the sea holding a new self-made fishing rod fishing leisurely, a hint of surprise flashed in Haku's eyes, and he praised: "Are you good at fishing? That's amazing." !"

"...Basic skills, no need to boast."

Uehara Naraku's expression was muted, and his heart was slightly strange. It felt a little strange that he brought the current Haku to see Zabuza.

The fishing line trembles violently!

Haku looked at Uehara, who was still and steady, and gently tap Uehara's shoulders, urging him repeatedly, "Uehara, the fish got hook!"

"Slow down, wait a while."

Uehara Naraku smiled and shook his head. Just as he was about to talk about the poor fishing knowledge, he learned from Konan, he saw a cold light flash at him!

Ding!

A shuriken suddenly cut through the fishing line. The remaining power was undiminished and deeply embedded in the rock next to him!

The appearance of that shuriken made Haku's mind very confused, he nervously steps back, but still out of fear of his little partner, he tightly grasped Uehara's sleeve and whispered: "Uehara, it's a ninja from Kirigakure, let's go!"

"No, he is looking for me."

Uehara Naraku patted Haku's arm and motioned for him to calm down. He looked at the broken fishing line with regret and whispered in his mouth: "Zabuza, you let go of the fish that I caught, you have to pay the price!"

"Humph!"

Behind a rock, someone grunted, and threw a scroll toward Uehara Naraku's location!

Uehara Naraku took it and opened it. The map of the country of water was drawn on it. A red line was scribbled. It is a route. At the end of the route, a red circle was drawn. It should be the final route and his target destination.

Zabuza appeared behind a rock, looked at Uehara, he said coldly: "That is the information you want... Tomorrow morning, the person you are looking for will lead a group of ninja to chase some intruder."

Uehara Naraku nodded and asked a question: "Is this their route? Are you certain of it?"

Zabuza explains: "This is the territory of our country of water, and the pursuit troops will choose the fastest route."

This is the basic common sense of the Ninja world.

A ninja in his own country will choose the safest route in his own country. Isn't this ninja village too useless?

After seeing Uehara Naraku put away the scroll, Zabuza looked at Haku next to him and coldly accused Uehara: "Boy, we two agreed on a secret place in our deal. But you brought this little girl here, are not worry about her leaking secrets?"
