Chapter 233: Konoha’s Strongest?

Boruto, who was eating rice, also thought: "Gift... What would grandpa like?"

Screen turn

Boruto brought Mitsuki to infiltrate the Hyuga clan.

Boruto bared his teeth: [I got in smoothly. 】

Mitsuki asked: [Hey. Why don't you just go through the main entrance? ]

Boruto whispered: [Of course it’s because it would be troublesome if we were discovered. Not only the grandfather who nags his grandson all day, but also Sister Hanabi…]

【Eh? 】

This sudden 'eh' startled Boruto.

Hanabi leaned against the wooden railing and asked, "Who are you saying is in trouble?"

Boruto seemed to be very scared of his aunt, and even spoke in a much softer voice: [Sister Hanabi. ]

Mitsuki also said: [Excuse me.]

Screen turn

In the living room

Hanabi laughed and said, "How dare you sneak into the Byakugan clan's house? It's impossible to stay undetected."

Boruto, who was drinking Coke, said arrogantly: [I was just a little careless. ]

Hanabi propped up her chin: [I understand you are worried about the gift, but I don't know what kind of gift my father would like.]

[What? Hanabi-sama doesn't know either. What should I do? ]

Mitsuki asked in confusion: [Excuse me, isn't Hanabi-sensei Boruto's aunt? Why do you call her sister? ]

Boruto was horrified, his face turned purple: [Hey! Mitsuki! ]

Hua Huo smiled and said: [Yes. That’s my sister.]

Then she looked at Boruto: [Father is at home, so why don’t I ask him directly for you? ]

Boruto waved his hands quickly: [No, no need. ]

As he said this, he lay listlessly on the table: [If he knew I was here, he would definitely get annoyed again. ]

[Yes, it would be too embarrassing to do that in front of friends.]

At this point, Hua Huo covered her mouth and laughed twice.

"What on earth did Boruto go through that made him so afraid of his grandfather's disgusting things?"

"It must be that his grandfather loves his grandson too much. Many old people are like this."

Seeing this, Ri Zu felt a little embarrassed.

Will he be so annoying in the future?

He felt that... although he also liked Boruto, it shouldn't be that bad... right?

Looking at the fireworks on the screen, he felt a little emotional.

"Hanabi has grown up, too, and seems to have become a teacher."

"Leading the jonin?"

on screen

Boruto lay on the table and said listlessly: [When will he let go of his grandson? ]

Just then, a loud roar was heard outside the Hyuga clan's gate.

【Is anyone there? Is anyone there?! 】

[I am Gatai from the Hidden Cloud Village. This time I would like to challenge the head of the Hyuga clan, the strongest family in Konoha.]

As he said this, he slammed his mace to the ground.

[Since you are the one who bears the title of 'strongest', please accept the challenge! ]

In the living room

Boruto was surprised: [Are there still such traditional challengers these days? ]

【Professional kicking. 】

Hua Huo said helplessly: [Alas. There are still people who think too much. ]

Boruto clenched his fist and laughed: [You dare to challenge Grandpa? You really don't know your limits. ]

Mitsuki asked, "Is your grandpa very strong?"

[Of course! He is not the head of the family for nothing. He can easily deal with this kind of person.]

At this time, the voice of Rizu was heard from inside the house.

[Hello. Hanabi? Is Hanabi there? ]

Hearing the sound, Boruto and Mitsuki quickly rolled out and hid.

Rizu continued: [Thank you for your help, please follow the old rules. ]

[Yes. Father.]

Screen turn

After hearing what Hanabi said, Gatai asked in confusion: [What? The head of the family is not here? ]

Hua Huo smiled and said: "Yes, unfortunately he is not in the village. Thank you for coming from afar, but please go back."

[This is impossible. I can't explain it to you clearly. Hand over Hinata Hiashi.]

Hanabi still had the same expression and said with a smile: [How can I make friends if I’m not here? ]

[I understand, he doesn't dare to accept my challenge! Avoiding the challenge means I won. How dare he call himself the strongest in Konoha?]

After saying this, Gatai put the mace on his shoulder and left with a big laugh.

Hua Huo said helplessly: [Ah... I really want to sprinkle salt to ward off evil spirits. ]

Boruto ran over and asked: [Why is grandpa pretending not to be here? Wouldn't it be enough to defeat him? ]

[Who knows? He always behaves like this when someone challenges him.]

Boruto is surprised: [Is it always like this? ]

"Shouldn't the strongest be Naruto, Sasuke and Emperor Kai? Could it be that Konoha Village has hidden other powerful weapons?"

"Who knows? But it made me laugh when I saw Boruto's aunt said she wanted to sprinkle salt to ward off evil spirits."

"Since he's quite capable and Boruto thinks highly of him, why doesn't he accept the challenge? Wouldn't he be looked down upon?"

"Who cares? Anyway, in Konoha... the strongest person I recognize and respect the most is Emperor Kai. He is so strong through his own efforts. The next ones are Naruto and Sasuke, who are the reincarnations of the Six Paths Sage's son. As for the others, forget it."

"Oh! I understand! Boruto's grandfather's "strongest" should be followed by a suffix! The "strongest" should also be followed by a 'head of the family', wouldn't the meaning change?"

"That's right. With Naruto, Sasuke, and Emperor Kai here, how dare he call himself the strongest? Even if I'm Naruto's father-in-law, I can't stand him!"

He can be infinitely tolerant of Naruto, even Naruto's son, he loves him as well, but for his father-in-law... Sorry, you are too distant from Naruto.

Pure Land

The slight interest that Madara had just shown suddenly disappeared when he saw Hiashi.

An expert will know if there is one as soon as he takes action.

Even if Rizu didn't make a move, he wouldn't be interested.

It's just a gut feeling.

This guy is not that great.

Izuna let out a sigh.

"How can the Hyuga clan be considered the strongest? I'm afraid that this clan leader is just the strongest among the Hyuga clan. I think even Sakura is stronger than him."

"That is to say, there will be fewer Uchiha people in the future and they will no longer be called a clan. Otherwise, Uchiha Sasuke alone could claim the title of the strongest clan in Konoha."

"This Gatai from Kumogakure is so ignorant. He has the ability to challenge Sasuke."

After hearing what Hanabi said, Mitsuki asked: [Could it be that what that person just said was right, that he is actually very weak? ]

Boruto retorted: [How is that possible? He is much more powerful than Sister Hanabi. Really, I am increasingly confused about Grandpa’s thoughts.]

Having said that, Boruto left angrily.

【Wait for me, Boruto. 】

Hanabi looked at their backs.

[Forget it, Boruto will understand when he grows up. ]

After returning to the room, she said to Rizu: "Father, I drove him away according to the old rules."

【Thank you.】

[No, it's nothing. You must have a reason for doing this, right?]

Hiashi said: [It is easy to solve problems with force, but the strongest point that Hyuga advocates now is not the force. If I had understood this earlier...]

As he spoke, he took out a photo and looked at Neji and Hizashi in the photo, a little absent-minded.

……

Ninja World

"So, all the strong ones have stories?"

"Is it because he once used force to solve problems and killed his twin brother? So he learned from his mistakes and decided to be a strong person and not care about what others think of his avoidance of war?"

"Are you...feeling guilty?"
