Chapter 79 - Travelers from the Future [1] (1/2)
''Hey, you said that the white-skinned freak can steal and then absorb Chakra through that Fishing Rod, right?'' Naruto suddenly said to the silent Boruto, that nodded slightly.
Thinking for a few seconds, the blonde teenager said with a smirk: ''He won't be able to steal Chakra from us if we use Fuuinjutsu, I met someone that could absorb someone else's chakra by holding onto them, same logic.''
''Lift your shirt slightly, I'll put a Four Trigrams Seal on your stomach, you too, black-haired man, come her.'' Naruto said as both of them approached as if they held complete trust on him, which didn't surprise the blonde as he knew they were from the future - one from another reality.
'It must be Spacy Old Man messing things up...' Naruto thought with a bit of annoyance, he's sure that if it was from his reality, that man wouldn't live enough to walk off the Planet, not to mention go back in time.
After putting a Four Trigrams Seal on both Boruto and future Sasuke, Naruto lifted his own shirt, showing his scar-riddled upperbody, the number of scars and their sizes scared not only Boruto but even future Sasuke, that frowned.
He knew about Naruto's past - everything he suffered, however, future Sasuke didn't think it was that bad, it confirmed the fact they're in an extremely similar yet different reality. Smiling slightly, Naruto said: ''Surprised about these scars? It's about things that happened in the past, I chose not to regenerate to remind myself of these things.''
''Ero Sennin, can you leave us alone, please? I need to talk with our two 'travelers', hm?'' Naruto said while secretly giving Jiraiya his wallet as a bribe.
'Brat, do you think the Great Jiraiya-sama accept bribes?' Jiraiya thought condescendingly before 'relutanctly' picking the frog-like wallet and leaving, seeing that, Naruto's smile seemed to widen slightly.
''So... what bring travelers from the future of a different reality here?''
...
[Karin's P.O.V]
Ever since I saw Naruto and how he saved me, I felt my life was overthrown. Everything I suffered, being bitten to heal others and treated as nothing but trash, I... didn't want to have that kind of life.
Then, he appeared in the Chuunin Exams and despite seeing him kill my two 'teammates' and knowing his 'Sadistic Demon' title, I couldn't help but blush, I couldn't stand still in front of him. I couldn't be away from him, from his warm and gentle eyes
''Don't worry, from now on, if anyone tries to treat you as a tool, I'll personally kill that person.'' At that time, Naruto's gentle smile and warm words penetrated deep onto my heart.
There is also that twat - Haku - despite being silent most of the time, every time he talks, it's like he talks with the sole purpose of annoying me, talking about how he and 'Naruto-sama' are friends and all. I just don't shut him up with my fist because he's stronger than me but just wait, when I get strong enough, I'll see if you come with the words 'Naruto-sama' towards me, I'll damn blast you out of existence!
Reassuring my determination, I thought about Naruto and despite saying it was Ninja things, I knew that it wasn't it. The sadness he hid deep within his damn beautiful eyes couldn't be hidden from me, I could feel it, Naruto... was broken inside already but I could also feel that maybe... his broken 'pieces' can be mended and fixed, when the time comes, I want to be the one to help with that!
