Death's Dimensional Journey

Chapter three hundred and thirty-two pommel horse eight clouds

It was Yakumo Kurama, a girl who had awakened to the limit of blood and had a very high talent for illusions but was born with a weak physique. A few years ago, due to the influence of negative emotions, her house was set on fire, causing the patriarch and her parents to die. sea ​​of ​​fire.Of course, Yakumo Kurama, who completely forgot about this experience because of the brain's self-protection mechanism, does not know that she killed her parents with her own hands, and even thought it was a secret scheme by the three generations of Hokage.Therefore, Yakumo has not had any good feelings for the third Hokage Sarutobi Hijn for a long time. It can even be said that now she hates the entire Konoha Village.Because of this, and Yakumo's ability is terrifying, she herself is currently isolated in the Satomi Hill Villa in Konoha Village, which is where Ichigo can see now, the one located in Konoha Village. in the mountain village.

"Yakumo Kurama? This girl is a problem child. Just in time, I have nothing to do now, so let's go and see her." After a while, he calmly looked at the villa for a few seconds, and then Ichigo murmured. He whispered, and at the same time, his figure flashed towards the villa for a moment.

……

A few minutes later, in Satomi Hill Villa.

Carrying a stool and sitting on a grassy hillside planted with forest vegetation, under the shade of trees, a girl was holding a paintbrush on a drawing board in front of her and kept painting and drawing.The girl was wearing a dark blue kimono, with long straight brown hair, but her skin was slightly morbidly pale due to the lack of sunlight or some other reason.But even so, it couldn't hide the girl's natural and elegant temperament.She is Kurama Yakumo, the girl who was isolated in Satomi Hill Villa.

"Are you sketching from life? The painting is really good." At this moment, a sudden soft voice sounded behind Yakumo, and she couldn't help but turn around subconsciously when she couldn't help but look stunned.

"Who are you?..." In the next second, he frowned slightly and looked at the person who came. Yakumo then stopped painting, and turned to gently open her lips and asked in a soft voice.

"My name is Kurosaki Ichigo. I saw you alone here, so I came over to have a look." It was Ichigo who came.In the next second, he stepped to Yakumo's side and stood still, a guard and then with a gentle smile, opened his mouth and replied to Yakumo.

"That's all?" Ichigo's words made Yakumo frown, "You know, this villa looks quiet, but it's actually a secluded place, how could it be as easy as you said to come in? already?"

"Is this villa isolated? It's not that bad, it has such an elegant and pleasant scenery." Taking a deep breath of the fresh air accompanied by the breeze, Ichigo turned to Yakumo and said.

"Elegant and pleasant?" Ichigo's words made Yakumo stunned for a moment, and then he smiled lightly with his tender lips pursed, "Well, it is estimated that such words can only be said from someone like you who doesn't know everything. Come out?"

"Perhaps, but I feel that it's pretty good to stay here, but it's a bit boring to have no one to accompany you." She shrugged indisputably, and Ichigo sat down beside Yakumo very naturally. , and then said, "Then, I have already introduced myself, shouldn't you be polite?"

"...My name is Kurama Yakumo..." She pursed her lips slightly and fell silent. Then, turning her beautiful eyes to look at Ichigo, Yakumo finally opened her cherry lips and replied to Ichigo.

The next moment, after introducing himself to Ichigo, Yakumo stopped talking, and then picked up the brush again and silently painted the scenery.As for Ichigo, I didn't come to disturb Ichigo at this time, but just sat quietly beside Yakumo, watching her painting with interest.

……

A few days later, in Satomi Hill Villa.

Sitting next to Yakumo as usual, watching her painting, after a few days, Ichigo didn't speak, just accompanied her silently.As for Yakumo, after that, he seemed to have a tacit understanding and didn't ask Ichigo any more. He didn't even ask how Ichigo entered the Satomi Hill Villa quietly every day, and just painted on his own. Let Ichigo watch from the side.

"Yakumo, seeing as you draw so well, if you can, why not draw a portrait for me?" However, today, Ichigo suddenly broke the routine and said such words to Yakumo.

"...Do you want a full body portrait or a half body?" But unexpectedly, Yakumo, who could obviously refuse, agreed at this time.When he stopped drawing with his hands, he looked at Ichigo and asked softly.

"Half body is fine." Hearing Yakumo's answer, Ichigo grinned and replied at the same time.

"Okay, take this chair and sit across from it." Nodding lightly, Yakumo then stood up and moved the chair she was sitting on to Ichigo.And Ichigo took it bluntly, and then came to the opposite side and put down the chair to sit down.

Turning the easel around and giving up the chair to Ichigo, Yakumo, who had no seat, had to half squat on the ground, then held up the drawing plate and let the paintbrush in his hand get some ink, and began to look at Ichigo and put the pen on it. on the canvas.

……

After a while.

"Okay." Putting the brush in his hand on the easel and standing up, Yakumo said softly as he turned around the easel and turned the canvas towards Ichigo.

"Already? So soon?" And Yakumo's words made Ichigo startled and whispered.Immediately, seeing Yakumo's painted portrait on the canvas, Ichigo's expression was instantly amazed.

Wonderful, really wonderful.On the canvas, not only did Ichigo's face and appearance are drawn perfectly, but even the demeanor and the faint smile on the corner of his mouth were depicted vividly.This is a more expressive portrait than a photograph, which made Ichigo stunned for a few seconds before exclaiming, "It's really perfect, is this Yakumo's talent for painting?"

"If you like it, you can take this painting." Hearing Ichigo's obviously complimenting voice, Yakumo's pretty face turned red for an unprecedented moment, and then looked towards When Ichigo, he whispered softly.

"Really? Then I'll accept it rudely." Yakumo wanted to gift this painting to himself, and Ichigo was of course willing to accept it, and then nodded in agreement.

The next moment, he took off the canvas and handed it to Ichigo. Yakumo then replaced it with a new one, and began to paint silently again.

....

Chapter [-] The approaching Chunin exam

So, in the next period of time, Ichigo spent more time with Rin besides occasionally accompanying Yakumo to relieve her boredom.Ichigo also brought Lin back to live in the Zhanyue World more than once.In this way, time passes slowly in the daily routine of daily life, and before I know it, more than a year has passed.

Today's Konoha Village is different from the past. Originally, Konoha Village, where only Konoha Village ninjas and residents lived, suddenly welcomed a group of Outer Village Ninjas.And most of them are teenage ninjas around the age of thirteen or fourteen.Such a situation, coupled with the news that Ichigo received a few days ago, at this time, he can be sure that the test of the genin and the chunin, that is, the chunin exam, was finally held at this time.And the location of this Chunin exam is obviously in Konoha Village.

However, the Chunin exams that were held frequently in the past, this time was a bit special.Although, up to now, Ichigo knows that the plot has a big deviation from the actual development, but Ichigo still smells a little conspiracy from it.In the original book, this Chunin exam was the beginning of Orochimaru Konoha's collapse plan, but the original book is the original book after all, and it is obviously a fool's practice to act according to the original book until now. It will continue to develop as he knows the plot.However, based on Ichigo's long-standing qualifications and keen awareness of combat, Ichigo is almost certain that this time's Chunin exam will never be peaceful.During the Chunin exam, the Quartet ninjas gathered in Konoha, many of whom were fishy in troubled waters and those with ulterior motives.Therefore, if anyone wants to make a big change in Konoha, this Chunin exam is obviously a rare good time.

"Bang! Ouch, it hurts!..." But suddenly, just as Ichigo was concentrating on his thoughts, a cry of pain suddenly sounded, and Ichigo immediately felt a soft figure slam into his arms. girl.

"Hey, what's the matter with you guy? Don't you know how to give way?" Because I watched the scenery in Konoha Village before, I didn't look at the road ahead, so I collided with Ichigo, but Ichigo didn't know what to do. The girl who bumped into Ichigo's arms still couldn't help being a little angry, so she shouted angrily at Ichigo at the moment.

"I said, it seems that you bumped into it without thinking? I have never moved, haven't I? Do you still blame me for this?" There is still a girl's freshness in the nose. The body scent remained, and he raised his hand and touched his nose in a funny way. Ichigo looked at the girl who stood up from his arms and said, "This way, if you accidentally bump into a telephone pole in the future, why not? Don't you want to blame the telephone pole?"

"You?!" Ichigo's words instantly made the girl speechless.Indeed, Ichigo was right, it was indeed the girl who rushed over without hesitation, so the girl who couldn't say anything to refute Ichigo had to blushed slightly, but her expression was stunned. speechless.

And when the girl was choked by Ichigo's words, Ichigo also took the opportunity to look her up and down.Behind him was a huge fan with a black iron casing, a forehead guard with the Sandyin Village logo on his forehead, and his pale orange hair was tied into four bundles and tied behind his head.The woman with beautiful lake-green eyes was recognized by Ichigo at a glance.Isn't she the one from Sandyin Village, Temari who signed up for the Chunin Exam this time?

"What? What are you looking at?!" After a while, it seemed that Ichigo was looking at her, and Temari raised his eyes and glared at Ichigo in a low voice.However, when she and Ichigo looked at each other, her expression was immediately stunned involuntarily.

"I didn't look at it much before, but now I take a closer look and it turns out that I bumped into a handsome guy." His eyes flickered for a moment, and Temari couldn't help thinking in his heart after staring at Yihu for a while.

"Girls' family is better to be more elegant. Girls with too strong temperament are not very popular." However, just as Temari was thinking about it, Ichigo suddenly said such words, and then turned around. He walked in the direction away from Temari.

"What... what?! Damn guy, you actually want to teach me a lesson in turn? Hey, stop for me!" It took a few seconds to be able to react, and Ichigo raised his eyebrows at what he said, and then looked at Ichigo away. The back figure snorted.

……

After a few minutes.

"I wonder if the four generations of Kazekage were killed by Orochimaru at this time as in the original book?" Walking on the road, Ichigo couldn't help thinking in his heart.A few years ago, Orochimaru defected from the village due to the discovery of Sarutobi Hizan's secret research.Ichigo already knew about this.After defecting from Konoha, Orochimaru's whereabouts began to become bizarre and mysterious.Even now whether Orochimaru used the Chunin exam to infiltrate Konoha Village, Ichigo is still unknown.

"The ninja of the sound ninja village?" However, at this moment, a few ninjas wearing the forehead guards with the musical note mark happened to pass by Ichigo's side, causing Ichigo's brows to move uncontrollably. After the village, there are ninjas in the ninja village founded by Orochimaru, and it seems that Orochimaru himself has definitely sneaked into Konoha."

"Brother Ichigo!" Immediately after, he took his eyes away from those Yin Ninjas, and Ichigo walked straight forward without looking sideways.That is, at this moment, a shadow suddenly entered the place where Ichigo's eyes could be seen, followed by a soft greeting.
