Chapter 224 The Reason for Surviving
Because Orochimaru…
Nanako nodded and said: "Uncle... After Danzo decided to execute me, he handed me over to Orochimaru." At this point, her tone became more sarcastic.
"Maybe he thought I still had the final value, so before executing me, he gave me to Orochimaru as a material for experiments."
"Orochimaru injected your and Hashirama's cells into my arm."
With that said, Nanako took off her black robe, wearing only a thin sleeveless black underwear.
Ye Zi's eyes quickly passed over Nanako's mature body, and finally fell on her arm. It was an arm that was the same color as Bai Jue's body. It was so pale that it looked lifeless.
Nanako recalled the memory of that time. The heart-wrenching pain was still vivid in her mind, but her tone was very calm and she said: "At that time, my arm could not bear the cells of you and Hashirama, and it exploded into pieces. It was so painful that I fainted, and when I woke up, my arms had grown again, but my body was also very weak.
"The person who disposed of the body buried me in a place. I finally got the body bag open, got out of the soil, and recognized that it was near the root exit."
"I didn't have time to think about why my arms grew. I was hungry and tired at the time, and I knew I couldn't stay any longer, so at that time I planned to escape Konoha first and then make plans."
"But, in my state at that time, even escaping from Konoha was a problem, let alone my subsequent plans."
"To make things better..."
Nanako's expression suddenly changed slightly. She deliberately avoided Ye Zi and looked at a corner of the room. Recalling the choices she made at that time, her eyes couldn't help but show indifference and disgust.
"That place was where Gen disposed of the corpses. In the past, it was customary to scatter the ashes of the cremated corpses near Gen. Finally, because of some thoughts, it was changed to burial, so many corpses were buried in that place. "
"I…"
Nanako's expression became a little cold.
"Find a nearby place with newer traces, dug up there, and found the recently deceased body."
Nanako chose to remain silent when she said this, but Ye Zi understood the choice Nanako made in order to survive.
She avoided her eyes, as if she didn't dare to face Ye Zi, because the choices she made to survive were simply unacceptable to ordinary people, and the reason why she wanted to survive so much was just because she didn't want to lose the chance to see that person again. , there are also things that have been promised but not yet completed.
Therefore, for the sake of the important people, she would never give up the hope of living no matter what. Even if she was extremely resistant to it, she did not hesitate for too long.
"The important thing is not the process, but the result. If you survive, this is the result. It is more important than anything else. There may be many things that are more important than life, but it will never be the choice you made at that time. "Ye Zi doesn't think there is anything wrong with Nanako's decision. In order to survive, people will use all their possibilities.
When people's lives are threatened, they can even kill people, but what does this mean?
"You did the right thing." He looked at Nanako beside him, stretched out his hand, and slowly stroked the long hair as smooth as satin. In the past, only the temples had silver hair, but now a large part of it was white.
"White hair." The darkness in Ye Zi's eyes flashed away.
If it weren't for him, maybe Nanako wouldn't have encountered so many things.
Everything started because of him.
Feeling Ye Zi's touch, the indifference and disgust in Nanako's eyes disappeared. In the past, she was immersed in experiments, so her hair was always not taken care of, making it greasy. One day, Ye Zi said casually, and she let go. In her heart, from then on, she began to pay attention to the care of her hair.
"However, he will definitely not think of this."
Nanako slowly turned her head and looked at Ye Zi who was right in front of her. She stretched out her pale and beautyless hand, touched Ye Zi's cheek, and said sincerely: "Until this moment, I will never regret the choice I made. "
Ye Zi did not resist Nanako's touch. When he heard what she said, his eyes trembled slightly, and then quickly returned to calm.
"What happens next?" He changed the subject and asked.
Nanako paused in her thoughts, put down her hand, and continued: "At that time, I finally escaped from Konoha. I wandered aimlessly, wanting to find a place to stay first, and then find a chance to inform you. But when I found a place to stay, At that time, news came that you died in the Kingdom of Earth."
"I didn't want to believe it, so I made inquiries in many places, and finally had to admit the news."
A crazy light suddenly appeared in Nanako's eyes.
"I had an idea at that time, which was to change the fact that you were dead. I wanted to... resurrect you!"
Ye Zi's body trembled slightly, and he watched the madness in Nanako's eyes gradually fade away, and her expression seemed complicated for a moment.
Nanako was immersed in the memories of that time and did not notice Ye Zi's expression, and continued: "So, I found the daimyo of Nono Kuni. With the help of the daimyo of Nono Kuni, I had basic equipment, and then started to develop drugs. , the root cause is my arms."
She raised her pale and bloodless arms and said calmly: "These are Hashirama's cells, but they are not easily integrated with the human body. Normally, my body would be broken by Hashirama's cells, so it is basically certain that it is a big snake." Maru used a certain method to allow me to successfully fuse Hashirama cells."
"After so long, his research should have progressed to the final step. Orochimaru's ability in this area is really terrifying."
"And I also have my own direction, but I don't need it now."
Having said this, Nanako smiled slightly, looked at Ye Zi seriously, and said, "It's really good that you're not dead."
Ye Zi silently picked up the black robe, put it on Nanako, and said, "This is what I want to say to you as well."
Nanako didn't talk too much about her experience, but Ye Zi knew very well that it was not that simple for Nanako, who was of average strength, to get to where she is now.
"I came here originally to find the person who developed the potion, but I didn't expect it would be you." Ye Zi said directly.
Before he came, he couldn't have thought that this person would be Nanako, and he was still thinking about how to recruit him. Now it's better, and he saves a lot of trouble.
Nanako looked at him quietly with a smile on her face.
"Since this person is you, things will be simple. I need your help."
"Okay." Nanako nodded without any hesitation.
Just as he thought, Nanako agreed to his request without any hesitation.
"First of all, you should improve the side effects of this potion. If it doesn't work, it's okay. Just speed up the onset time and duration."
Ye Zi took a few steps, picked up the syringe on the ground, and turned to look at Nanako.
"You did it for the troops of the Wild Kingdom, right?" Nanako immediately guessed that the destruction of the Wild Kingdom troops was Ye Zi's handiwork.
Ye Zi nodded, admitted that he did it, and then said: "This potion is very useful to me, but it takes too long to take effect."
"Give me time, I can improve it." Nanako said, her eyes falling on Ye Zi's black hair.
Ye Zi took off his black robe, revealing arms that were the same color as Nanako, and said lightly: "If you don't have enough material, just tell me."
Nanako shifted her gaze and looked at Ye Zi's arm. A complicated light suddenly burst out in her eyes. She couldn't help but run to Ye Zi's arms, holding his neck, and remained silent in his arms at this moment.
She had always cared about this ugly arm, but now, she didn't care at all.
Ye Zi silently stretched out his hand to hug Nanako's back.
