Chapter 147: C7
Haru chased after them and jumped into the roof. He knew that the kidnapper was the girl who was following them for a while in the afternoon.
The kidnapper took something from her pocket and threw it toward him.
*swish!
"Shuriken? Ninja?" Haru felt strange but he took his wooden sword and deflected her shuriken.
*clank
*swish! swish! swish!
The kidnapper kept throwing a shuriken toward him.
"Useless," Haru said while deflecting her attack. He looked at her and said, "Who are you? Why do you want to kidnap her?"
The kidnapper stopped and said, "I"m C7 and I want to make her into my disciple."
"Huh?" Haru and Kato were stunned.
Kato had been stunned earlier when she saw the battle between the two people.
"Why?" Haru asked.
"Because her skill is superb, she can blend into her surroundings easily, and more importantly, her lack of presence is a very important skill for every ninja," C7 said.
Haru couldn"t refute her words since it was true.
"Why are you not saying anything?" Kato felt offended since Haru didn"t say anything.
"But what she has said is the truth," Haru answered and looked at C7, "But I can"t let you put her into your disciple."
"Then we have to fight," C7 said and placed Kato down the roof as she tied her with a rope. She took out two kodachi (small sword) from her pocket and ran toward him.
This would be his first time to fight against a ninja, a female one at that.
"Well, don"t blame me for hurting you," Haru said and extended his arm.
*srrt
"What?!" C7 was startled but it was too late. Her body was punched and she was grabbed by him.
"You need to be quiet down for a bit," Haru said, touching several parts of her body. He separated her legs and arms, and also closed her mouth with a zipper. He had a haki observation and it was very easy for him to predict her attack.
Kato, who saw the scene, couldn"t help but stunned, "Zipper?"
"Hmm?!" C7 was startled by his power, "Ninjutsu?"
Haru walked toward Kato and helped her, "Are you okay?"
Kato nodded in response and looked at the female ninja, "Is she going to be okay?" She was worried since the body of the ninja had been separated.
"Don"t worry, I can connect it later," Haru said.
Kato felt relieved when she heard it.
Both of them walked to the ninja together since they were curious about her.
Haru looked at her and said, "I will ask you some questions, can you do that?"
C7 looked at him for a bit and looked at her feet and arms. She sighed and nodded since she had been confused for the past few days.
"Good," Haru said and opened the zipper on her mouth, "So the first question, your name is C7?"
"Yes," C7 answered.
"Where do you come from?" Kato asked.
"I"m a part of Iga ninja," C7 said and asked, "Are you a Koga ninja?"
"No, I"m not," Haru wasn"t sure whether there was a ninja in this world since he only saw one but he was sure that he wasn"t a ninja.
"Can you tell me where is this?" C7 asked.
"You"re not sure where is this?" Haru asked.
C7 shook her head and started to tell him her story since she didn"t feel harm on him and she also wanted Kato to become her disciple, "I don"t know but I suddenly came out from the well in the shrine in the back of the hotel....."
Haru and Kato who listened to her story felt weird since both of them could only conclude that this C7 was coming from the past, the question was "Is it possible?" Both of them heard that she was part of the elite ninja of the shogun.
"Haru, it seems that she is from the past," Kato whispered.
"That"s true," Haru nodded and said, "I will turn your body back but don"t attack us or else I can take out your brain or heart right away from your body."
C7 nodded but didn"t show any fear toward him.
"Are you really going to do that?" Kato whispered.
"No way," Haru whispered and returned her body back.
"Thank you very much," C7 bowed her head and asked, "Can you tell me what is going on with this world?"
"C7-san, I"m sure that you"re confused but you have traveled in the future," Kato explained to him.
"Future...." C7 looked at her.
"Yes, your world is 400 years ago and right now you have traveled to 400 years in the future," Kato said.
"400 years...." C7 muttered.
Yuuki looked at this ninja and only realized that she was quite cute.
C7 has long dark blue hair while wearing a black ninja get up that covers her mouth, even though it was covered but everyone could tell that she was a beauty.
C7 was silent for a bit and shook her head, "But I need to have pa.s.sed my skill on to someone." She looked at Kato and said, "Do you want to become my disciple and become C8?"
"Hey!" Haru didn"t expect that this female ninja wouldn"t give up inviting her to become a ninja.
"It"s okay," Kato nodded.
"What?" Haru was surprised to hear her answer.
"I think becoming a ninja is quite interesting," Kato answered.
"Are you serious?" Haru asked her once again.
"Yes," Kato nodded.
"Good, I will contact you later," C7 said and threw a smoke bomb on the ground
*boom!
"Cough! Cough!" Kato and Haru coughed and when the smoke disappeared both of them saw that C7 had disappeared.
"Are you really going to become a ninja?" Haru asked once again.
"Yes," Kato nodded.
Haru had a headache and said, "Let"s go back, first, I"m sure that they will be worried when they see us disappear suddenly."
"Hm," Kato nodded.
"Let me help you," Haru said and carried her in his arms. He jumped down and went to his room.
Both of them went back to their futon and decided to sleep.
"Haru..."
"Hmm?"
"How can you make a zipper on her body earlier?"
"....."
Haru turned and looked at her thinking how to explain to her.
