Chapter 250 Encounter with the Boy Named After Star (4)
Chapter 250 Encounter with the Boy Named After Star (4)
But this was just Sakura's guess. When he told the deputy Hoshikage Akahoshi that the [Star] had been stolen, his expression was visibly cracked.
Therefore, Chi Xing's voice became much louder. "What? The Star was stolen?"
Subaru nodded bitterly, "Yes... All the people who were training were there at the time, but they were all hit and fell unconscious..."
Can it be said to be a great shame? After all, it was a theft that happened on their Xingyin territory, and the nature of it could be said to be extremely bad. Chixing punched hard on the wooden floor, looked at the few people and blurted out, "Waste!"
Sakura stopped Naruto who was about to rush forward, "I'm really sorry, but based on our situation at the time, the opponent's ninja was indeed very strong."
Xiao Li was sitting at the side, and it was incredible that Miss Ying could say that he was strong. "Miss Ying, is the other party really that strong?"
Sakura nodded, "Yes, it's the first time I've seen someone transform chakra into the shape of a beast or even wings. But the most important point is that the ninjutsu that person used is from your Star Hidden Ninja Village."
Akahoshi's pupils shrank slightly when he heard about the wing form, and then became normal again, but he turned his gaze towards Subaru, "Is this true? Subaru?"
Sakura listened to Subaru's firm words, "Yes, it is definitely the Peacock Magic."
It seems that this Subaru... ...is full of doubts, and this agent Xingyin is really interesting.
Tiantian was familiar with the name of this ninjutsu, "Peacock Magic Technique? Isn't that the secret technique of the Star Hidden Ninja Village?"
Subaru answered this question truthfully, "Yes, only those who have reached the pinnacle of Star cultivation can..."
But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Akahoshi, "Subaru!"
Neji also spoke seriously to Tenten, "Tenten, the secrets of ninjutsu cannot be discussed without permission. Don't pry into it casually, especially this kind of secret technique that is not passed on to others."
Tiantian also realized the seriousness of the problem and quickly clasped his hands together, "I'm sorry..."
Subaru was very excited, "Lord Akahoshi, I beg you to give the order that the theft of the [Star] is my responsibility!"
Neji interrupted Subaru, "No, we accepted the mission to protect the [Star] but failed to fulfill our duties. We are also responsible. We will definitely get it back with our own hands."
Akahoshi glanced at Subaru and said, "Leave the investigation to the Konoha ninjas. Subaru, go take care of your injured companions."
Subaru couldn't help but retort to this arrangement: "But, no one knows better than our own people..."
Chi Xing frowned and said in a more serious tone, "This is an order!"
Sakura looked at their conversation and their expressions and had some guesses, which were really unexpected.
Since they had received the order, there was naturally no reason for them to continue staying in the house where Xingying was. Naruto was the first to push open the door and walked out, followed by several others who came out one by one.
Naruto seemed to have thought of something, and turned around and asked, "Subaru, are your companions who were injured by the enemy okay?"
But Subaru was in a bad mood at the moment, and he didn't appreciate Naruto's concern. "Don't mind your own business. You are just a bunch of outsiders after all. Do you really think of yourselves as our companions?"
These words were indeed harsh. If this happened in Konoha Village, Sakura would have wanted to give this person a big slap. It was the first time she saw someone who was entrusted with a task being so noble.
Tenten also felt innocent, "Ningci, although we have to take responsibility for this matter, we didn't even see the theft scene..."
Xiao Li also thought it made sense, "Yeah, I have no idea..."
Sakura said, "No, that person, or perhaps the one who rebelled against the Hoshigakure Ninja Village, is related to Subaru, and the acting village chief, Akahoshi, must also know about it."
Tiantian also had an impression of this, "Yeah, I remember now, when Ang mentioned that peacock, his face changed."
But Naruto still looked confused. Neji looked at Sakura and said, "I'm going to walk around the village to see if I can find any clues. Lee and Tenten, you two will be responsible for keeping an eye on the village chief Akaboshi, and Sakura, you and Naruto will be in charge of Subaru's affairs."
I really like talking to smart people. This way I can save a lot of time. But looking at Naruto's expression, I'm afraid he really didn't notice it?
However, with the mission assigned to him, Naruto quickly became very motivated, "No problem! Leave Subaru to us! Then we'll go first!"
Tiantian looked at Sakura being dragged by Naruto and sighed, "It's still the same as always... It's hard for Sakura, no wonder the fifth generation wanted to send Sakura out together..."
Xiao Li was also indignant for Xiao Sakura, "That is to say, Naruto is still so impetuous, Miss Sakura has worked hard..."

When Sakura discovered Subaru first, she saw him standing on the highest cliff, looking at the stars in the sky, and slowly taking out something hidden around his neck.
After watching for a long time, I heard him singing slowly: "Why are the summer stars so red? Last night's sad dream pierced my heart. My tears wet my pillow, and my eyes were stained with blood. Why are the summer stars so lost? When will my lost child return to my arms? I worry in vain, and I am powerless to see you. I can only dream of reunion..."
Naruto's sudden shouting made it impossible for Sakura to continue observing, so she had to show up. Naruto ran towards Subaru excitedly, "Hey! Subaru, what are you doing?"
Subaru turned sideways, looked at the two of them, and said in a very cold tone, "I didn't do anything, I was just looking at the stars."
But I'd better leave the chatting to Naruto. After all, I can't be as familiar with people as him.
"Stars? Come to think of it, there are a lot of stars here. Look at that red star. It's so beautiful!"
"Xia Rixing, that is my guardian star..."
After saying this, Subaru left here in frustration. Naruto hurriedly chased after him, "Ah... Actually, we want to go see your companions..."
Sakura thought about the song Subaru sang and the meaning of the summer stars, and she began to have some ideas about the thief.
Naruto took out Konoha's specialties and tried to get close to Subaru, but Subaru was very casual, "You guys can go if you want, it's next to the training ground."
After saying this, he shook off the two people and left towards an unknown path.
