NOVEL WEB Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Bad News
Meanwhile, Toneri, the last descendant of Hamura, is also a figure who oversees the Shinobi world from behind the scenes. Toneri's existence poses a potential threat that cannot be underestimated.
And of course, there is Isshiki, Kaguya's partner, who came to the Shinobi world to extract the Chakra fruit. However, Kaguya's betrayal nearly cost Isshiki his life. Isshiki is a threat that must be faced, both now and in the future.
With all these disturbing thoughts in mind, Aoki knows that the path he will take will not be easy. However, Aoki's determination is unwavering. Aoki will remain vigilant, ready to face any threat, and strive to save the Shinobi world, even if he remains behind the scenes... at least until the time comes for Aoki to reveal his true self.
Isshiki Ōtsutsuki, a very dangerous figure, now operates from behind the scenes, quietly observing the Shinobi world. Aoki knows very well the extent of the threat represented by Isshiki. Before his reincarnation, Aoki had watched Boruto and witnessed how Isshiki battered Naruto and Sasuke. Naruto even lost Kurama, while Sasuke lost his Rinnegan.
In that episode, when Naruto lost Kurama, Aoki cried uncontrollably. Coming as a disaster, leaving like a hero. Ahem, for those who haven't watched, sorry for the spoiler. But back to the topic—this world, the Shinobi world, is a very dangerous place.
If Aoki were asked which world he would choose over the Shinobi world, without a doubt, Aoki would choose the world of Pirates or the One Piece world. Or at the very least, Aoki would choose the world of the Genius Detective who shrinks to a grade schooler—yes, the Detective Conan world.
However, those thoughts must be set aside for now, as suddenly the rain began to pour heavily. Although this rain is just a normal natural phenomenon, for some, it might be seen as a bad omen.
In the midst of the heavy rain, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard, followed by the sound of Aoki's boss's shop door opening quickly.
"Boss... Boss Aoki! There—there's a problem! Aunt Nansa... she's dying!" Yono exclaimed, his voice trembling, tears streaming down his face.
Aoki fell silent upon hearing the news. Aoki's feelings suddenly became very heavy, as if he were standing under a raging waterfall. Aoki's body stiffened, and his mind went blank. Aoki didn't know what to do. With wide eyes, Aoki stared at Yono, and then a tear fell from the corner of Aoki's eye.
"Boss! I have to go. Sorry to leave work like this, but I have to go now! Yono, let's go!" Aoki shouted, speaking directly to his boss, Kuzan, without waiting for a response. Aoki immediately urged Yono to hurry to the Konoha hospital.
During the journey to the hospital, memories with Nansa flashed through Aoki's mind. Every moment they had shared together strengthened Aoki's resolve to quicken his pace. Aoki didn't care if there were people in front of him or if there were holes in the road; the only thing Aoki cared about right now was Nansa—the person Aoki had come to consider family.
Upon arriving at the Konoha hospital, Aoki immediately asked Yono where Nansa's room was. After getting an answer, Aoki rushed to the room without heeding the warnings from the Medical Nin telling him to be careful inside the hospital.
As soon as he arrived in front of Nansa's room, Aoki opened the door without hesitation. There, Aoki saw Nansa lying pale, looking very weak.
"Aunt Nansa!?" Aoki exclaimed in shock.
"Aoki..." Nansa replied, her voice weak and barely audible.
"Why didn't you tell me you had a strange illness?" Aoki asked with a very sad expression.
