When Neji woke up, he was already in a clean room.

He opened his eyes, sat up, and let out a soft hiss.

The muscles all over the body are a little sore, which is the aftereffect of opening the Eight Gates several times in a few days.

Even though his physical fitness is already very good, he is still a little overwhelmed.

But fortunately, his arms, waist, abdomen, and thighs were all wrapped with bandages at the moment. Someone must have bandaged him after he was unconscious.

Thinking about the last memory before losing consciousness, the door suddenly opened. squeak——

"Are you awake?"

The person who poked his head in was young Ishikawa. His left arm was hanging with a bandage and brace. It seemed to be broken.

"I heard, you are really good. Ishikawa walked over and gave him a thumbs up with his right hand,"You killed so many enemies by yourself and saved so many of us... You must be more than just a genin, right?" To be honest, if you were not from Konoha, I would definitely worship you as my eldest brother!"

"……What happened to your left hand?"

"Oh it's all right."Ishikawa looked unconcerned,"I was hit by this guy with Earth Break, and one of my bones was broken. It's okay! Neji felt that Ishikawa was quite strong despite his age, so he said,"Congratulations to you, you have captured another town.""

When mentioning this, Ishikawa was so excited that he gestured with one hand:"You didn't see it! Lord Angel alone defeated thirty or forty defending ninjas. Those bastards couldn't even touch the corners of Lord Angel's clothes!"

"You angels are indeed very powerful."

"of course."As Ishikawa spoke, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps. When he turned around, he saw that Angel Konan had arrived.

Looking at Konan entering the room, Ishikawa sat up and greeted very cautiously:"Angel-sama"

"Well, your arm has just been fixed, don't move around"

"Hey, hey, it's okay, it's not a problem! Konan nodded slightly, walked to the bed and looked at Neji:"How are you?""

"never mind"

"Everyone appreciates what you do"

"Nothing"

"There will be no war for the time being. Xiaonan said,"If you want, I can arrange for someone to escort you back to the Land of Fire.""

"……"

This treatment is really good.

Neji thought for a while:"I guess the person who picks me up will be here soon, so I won't bother you."

Konan fell silent, looked at his body that was almost covered with bandages, and asked:"You do this, Why?"

Not only was she curious, but Ishikawa was also curious, as were the people who were rescued.

In their opinion, it makes no sense for Neji, a Konoha ninja, to risk his life for them.

In that situation, Neji could have found an opportunity to escape by himself. With the strength he showed, he could suddenly run away while the enemy was not paying attention, and it was impossible to catch up with him at the speed of those rain ninjas.

But what he chose was to stay and fight, fighting against a dozen people alone.

"In fact, there is no reason. I just can't stand the killing of civilians."

"……"

"War is one thing, but ninja massacring defenseless civilians is another. Neji said,"Whoever does this is my enemy." And I believe that the party that does this will only fail in the end. I hope you won't do this"

"What are you talking about? Lord Angel has never massacred civilians!"Ishikawa was a little angry.

Xiaonan didn't say anything, just sighed softly.

Ishikawa was stunned. He seemed to have never seen Lord Angel sigh.

"Unfortunately not everyone thinks like you."She said.

Neji looked at her slightly sad expression and was speechless for a moment.

"This time I owe you a favor. Before leaving the house, she said without looking back,"I will return it to you in the future.""

"……"

After Konan left, Ishikawa breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she admired Lord Angel very much, when Lord Angel was around, she would also make him a little cautious, for fear of making her angry and uncomfortable.

As soon as she left, Ishikawa became more active again. He looked at Ningji with great envy and said in a sour tone:"You're a good guy. Lord Angel said he owes you a favor.""

"……"

This should be considered a good thing, but Neji really couldn't imagine what he could do with this favor.

Could it be that in the future... forget it, it's useless to think too much.

A few days later.

Kai and others have brought the goods to the previously agreed border location.

The road was not stable, and the eighteen carts of medicine still attracted many desperadoes, but unfortunately they were all beaten by Kai and Kakashi.

Soon, Akatsuki, who received the news, also sent someone to accompany Neji.

As soon as they met and saw the bandage on Neji's body, the members of the third team immediately felt angry.

"These bastards!"Tenten rushed up and pulled Ningji, looking left and right, his face was extremely ugly, he was frightened and angry.

"Neji, did they torture you?!"

"No……"

"He said no! Look at how many injuries you have all over your body!!"

Kai and others came over immediately. Xiao Li glared at the people who were sending Neci away. The leader of the group was Uncle Iteng, and he waved his hands quickly:"Torture? How could it be? Neji is our savior and good friend. If he hadn't wanted to go back, we would have kept him entertained for a few more days."

"……"

As soon as these words came out, everyone from Konoha felt like there was something wrong with their ears.

Treat? The Rain Country entertains people from the Fire Country? That's right?

"Neji, the clan leader asked me to pick you up."

The jounin of the Hyuga clan opened his eyes as he spoke at this time.

He observed the situation inside Neji's body and found that the meridians were not damaged. He only suffered some skin injuries. He should not have been tortured, but suffered some injuries during the battle. Injury.

If it was torture, the injury would not be so light.

After explaining the situation, Kai breathed a sigh of relief. He gave Neji an encouraging look, and then handed over to Itan.

"Eighteen carts of medicines, each cart is quite a lot, you can check and accept it"

"No need, we trust Neji's partners"

"……"

What did Neji do?

Several people had this question in their minds, why would the people from the Kingdom of Rain treat him in this way?

Kakashi, who was standing aside, took this opportunity to take a good look at Itan and the others.

He could tell that these people were all well-trained ninjas, very orthodox, not like some renegade ninja who had become a monk on the way. And being able to appear so brazenly at the border and transport such a large amount of goods... only proves that the organization they belong to has completely controlled the border areas and even the hinterland of the Country of Rain.

It seems that this organization may have replaced the Rain Ninjas and become the new military force of the Kingdom of Rain... huh?

Kakashi suddenly noticed that Anten was looking towards him, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.

"Wearing masks, it’s best not to look at us like this."

Oh, what a keen perception.

Kakashi squinted his eyes, raised his hand apologetically and gave a non-standard salute.

Anten retracted his gaze and waved to Neji:"If we have a chance to come to the Land of Rain next time, let's I will treat you well, Neji. Bon Voyage!"

"that. Kakashi suddenly said,"In addition to Neji, there must be a businessman who was detained."

An Teng frowned and said,"Businessman?" Wasn't that guy taken away?"

Kakashi looked at Kai, whose expression remained unchanged.

"Oh, sorry. Kakashi smiled and said,"We made a mistake. I'm so sorry.""
