Chapter 77 Conversation
The next morning, I was summoned to the bridge by Kakashi. Sai was also present, exuding an intimidating aura that sent Kiba and Shino into a cold sweat. Meanwhile, Sasuke's face was gloomy due to my all-night absence... wasn't I supposed to tell him I wouldn't be returning home last night?
Haruno Sakura and Umino Iruka had been complaining since early morning about why Kakashi was so late, didn't they know that Kakashi was never late? And how could they be so energetic in the early morning? Later, Kakashi arrived and handed each of us an application form, telling us whether we wanted to take this exam voluntarily. If you want to participate, come to classroom 301 at school before 4 pm tomorrow.
I stared at the application form in my hand, but he didn't tell us that the exam would be in groups of three, did he? If Haruhi Sakura participates, I'll either have to cancel my qualification or team up with someone else... Come to think of it, Hinata Hiyori's group has an extra Kikuchi Rie who seems to be a leftover like me. According to the investigation, she isn't a time-traveler, but still, I find her suspicious.
"Hey, Akira, can I talk to you for a bit?" Haruno Sakura hesitated for a moment before deciding to confide in her fellow female classmate Akira.
"Alright, okay." I turned my head to take a glance at Haruno Sakura. Although her personality was somewhat annoying, I had to admit that her hair was one of the things I liked about her - it was the same color as cherry blossoms.
"Come with me." Haruno Sakura didn't say another word as she grabbed the person's hand and started running, and in that instant when their hands touched, Haruno Sakura was taken aback because the other person's hand was so soft and icy cold, completely different from a ninja's hand which would normally have calluses from years of training.
"Huh?" Wait a minute, weren't we supposed to be talking? Why is she pulling me to run?
"Huh? Sasuke, where are Sakura and the others going?" Naruto looked at Sakura pulling Akane and running in the opposite direction of them.
"Who knows." Sasuke replied absent-mindedly to Naruto's question, but followed Sakura's figure the next second.
"Ah! Wait for me, Sasuke!" Naruto saw Sasuke leave and followed after him.
After being dragged to several places, they finally stopped and looked around. This was a nearby park, very quiet with few people. "What do you want to say?"
"Kurenai, do you think I can pass the Chunin exam?" Haruno Sakura looked at the person in front of her with some tension. No matter how she put it, she was the weakest one in this group, and the person standing in front of her was the most mysterious one. Her strength was probably even more formidable than Sasuke's...
"...you have the qualifications to see through illusions, flexible chakra control, and a natural talent for strength, as well as a clever mind. It seems you're a very talented kunoichi, but just having talent isn't enough, you need to train more." After analyzing her strengths, he told her without hesitation, no matter what, she would definitely be taking the Chunin exam.
"Strange, strange power......" Chunye Sakura was stunned... It turned out that in her heart, her image was like this.
"What's wrong?" I asked her with a puzzled expression, looking at her silly and spiritual face.
"No, nothing." Haruhi Sakaki said with a dry smile.
"Does Akane like Sasuke?" Haruno Sakura asked seriously after taking a deep breath.
"Hmm... I like it." I furrowed my brow in thought for a moment, although I think Sasuke actually dislikes me, but I quite like the small fan with the proud and arrogant expression.
"Is that so, but why are you being so intimate with that Aro person? It's not fair to Sasuke!" Haruno Sakura smiled wryly, and indeed, there wasn't a single girl who didn't like Sasuke, Sasuke was just that popular.
"What's intimacy?" Although I can understand what it feels like to like someone, what is intimacy?
"Hmm... intimacy is like when you hug me, Airo and stuff." Haruno Sakura's mouth twitched involuntarily, could it be that Aoiro actually was an... emotional idiot?
"Is that so? Xiao Ai is mine, I'll be with him forever." Ah, until the day I leave this world, I'll be with him. That's my promise to him.
"But you like Sasuke, so you can't be with Naruto!" Sakura Haruno's heart rose with a hint of luck and anger upon hearing these words.
"I also like what Xiao Ai said, why can't I be with Xiao Ai?" After careful consideration, Xiao Ai and Sazuke have been with me since childhood. Sazuke has had a subtle hostility towards me since childhood, not liking me to get close to Brother Tobi. On the other hand, Xiao Ai has always been dependent on me, a lonely child. I made a promise with him that Sazuke didn't have, and in comparison, I might like what Xiao Ai said more.
“……I got it, I'll go after Sasuke! Please don't interfere with me and Sasuke, bye.” Haruno Sakura defined the person in front of her as an emotional idiot who was playing with two boats at once, and then stomped away angrily.
"What's she upset about?" He looked at the pink figure with a puzzled expression, then shrugged and headed in the direction of home.
…………
"Ah!!! Cough! Sasuke, why are you covering my mouth?! Ah, Sakura has already gone far away......" Naruto pried open the hand that was covering his mouth and saw that Sakura's figure had already disappeared from view. With tears streaming down his face, Naruto glared at Sasuke with a look of resentment.
"……Shut up, you super big idiot!" Sasuke slowly turned his head towards Naruto, who was complaining. His handsome face was shrouded in a layer of gloom, like a dark onyx stone, and his deep black eyes had transformed into blood-red Sharingan, filled with killing intent and anger.
"……Gulp" Naruto swallowed a mouthful of saliva, how did Sasuke become so scary? What on earth happened?! (Just like Hinata, Naruto is also a slow-witted guy)
