#40 - Will you win?
"How are you getting along with your new teammates?"
"We're just carrying out missions together. Getting along or not isn't important."
Kakashi said blandly.
This morning, he met his two new teammates and the Jonin leading them.
He didn't feel anything special in his heart.
He only hoped they could complete the mission.
Listening to Kakashi's indifferent tone, Nohara Rin had already guessed that Kakashi might not be getting along well with his new companions.
"I have something to do later."
Kakashi said, and started walking forward.
"W-Wait a minute, Kakashi, are you researching chakra nature transformation? Like, changing chakra into a 'current' like nature."
Nohara Rin tried to find a common topic with Kakashi.
Although she hadn't completed that step that day, she was very meticulous and had memorized all the theoretical knowledge Qing Si had taught.
Kakashi's footsteps obviously stopped, and he looked back at Nohara Rin.
Nohara Rin clasped her hands in front of her abdomen, her brown eyes staring at Kakashi, her face showing a worried expression.
She looked a bit haggard for no reason.
"You've also learned chakra nature transformation?"
Kakashi was quite surprised.
These things were hardly taught in the ninja school.
Because only Chunin and above would consider these things.
It was too far away for them, Genin, or even ninja preparatory students who weren't even Genin.
"Yes, I learned a little."
Rin followed her memory and said some of the things Qing Si had taught.
When Kakashi heard it, he realized that Rin really knew a lot.
He had been developing Lightning Release ninjutsu alone, and he lacked another person to discuss and corroborate his ideas.
"Rin, what do you think about activating the cells in the wrist and palm?"
Kakashi asked a question.
Nohara Rin thought for a while and said her guess.
In fact, medical ninjutsu and Lightning Release have something in common, both acting on the human body.
And medical ninjutsu's research on cells is unmatched by all other ninjutsu.
"Let's find a place to talk in detail."
Kakashi became interested. He hadn't expected that Rin's insights were things he hadn't even thought of himself.
This ninjutsu was still in its initial stage, and Kakashi had only set a rough direction.
To complete this technique, he still needed to fill in a lot of things.
"Okay."
Nohara Rin softly hummed and quickly followed Kakashi as he left.
She felt happy in her heart, and the worry on her face lessened a bit.
As long as she got closer to Kakashi, she could guide him back, right?
Nohara Rin prayed like this.
...
Ninja School.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month passed, and Qing Si's life returned to calm.
Qing Si listened to the Chunin instructor explaining the history of the ninja world in class.
This world doesn't know much about the myths before the Warring States period a thousand years ago.
Even the most famous Sage of Six Paths is vague, and no one knows about Kaguya, the ancestor of chakra.
The Uchiha clan actually recorded the most historical secrets. There is an ancestral "Uchiha Stone Tablet" in the secret room of Nanga Shrine.
"It's starting to slow down."
Qing Si listened to the Chunin instructor talking about history while thinking about the Sharingan.
The feedback from the Sharingan is not as fast as it was at the beginning.
It is gradually slowing down, feeding back in a more subtle way to synchronize Qing Si's physical and mental strength.
The Sharingan is a pupil that reflects the heart, and it is precisely because opening the eyes will quickly enhance one's strength that the Uchiha's strength is feared by many people.
Before long, the class bell rang, and it was time for a break.
Yuhi Kurenai was the first to run to Qing Si again, asking if Qing Si understood the last class.
Qing Si read a book while replying to Yuhi Kurenai's questions.
Most of the time, Yuhi Kurenai spoke, and Qing Si occasionally replied with a word or two.
He is now preparing to graduate early, learning the knowledge that others have learned for several years in a very short period of time.
The Uchiha clan generally has good talent, and Qing Si remembers knowledge quickly, not to mention that he also has two entries, "Reading Absorption" and "Basic Memory".
"Kurenai is looking for Qing Si again. It seems Kurenai is really interested in genjutsu."
Akimichi Domaru took out a bag of potato chips from his pocket while eating.
"I've been in special training in the clan for several days recently."
Sarutobi Asuma said confidently.
His original genjutsu score was around the passing line, and now he has been in special training for several days. Although it won't improve too much,
Is it difficult to deal with Qing Si, an Uchiha who doesn't use the Sharingan?
After all, only the Sharingan and Fire Release of the Uchiha clan have spread their fame.
Without the Sharingan, the Uchiha are just like that.
"Awesome."
Akimichi Domaru swallowed a piece of potato chip and said.
He only feels happy if he can eat and drink every day.
Sarutobi Asuma was speechless to Akimichi Domaru.
If it weren't for the fact that the Sarutobi clan and the Ino-Shika-Cho trio have always had a good relationship,
He wouldn't know how he could have a good relationship with Akimichi Domaru.
Sarutobi Asuma glanced over and found that Uchiha Qing Si didn't know what he said, and actually made Yuhi Kurenai laugh.
He immediately stood up and walked towards Qing Si.
"Hey, Uchiha Qing Si, you said last time that you would spar with me, don't forget."
Sarutobi Asuma knocked on the table and said, just in time for the beginning of the month today.
He also deliberately lowered his voice in front of Yuhi Kurenai, making his voice sound very dull and masculine.
"Don't worry."
Qing Si nodded.
Seeing Qing Si's agreement and Yuhi Kurenai turning her head to look,
Sarutobi Asuma returned to his seat with satisfaction.
"Will you win?"
Obito, who was sitting in front of Sarutobi Asuma, turned his head and said.
He also wanted to see what Uchiha Qing Si's expression would be if he lost.
Recently, Obito has been feeling a little bored in school without Kakashi.
Naturally, he couldn't wait to see Uchiha Qing Si deflated.
"Yes, I will."
Sarutobi Asuma nodded.
He glanced at Obito with a slightly pitying look.
Last time, Obito practiced with Qing Si and lost to him, losing face in front of Nohara Rin.
This time, he will let Obito see what a man is.
"Kurenai, you won't mind if I win against Asuma, right?"
Qing Si said to Yuhi Kurenai.
Sarutobi Asuma doesn't have the precipitation of the future yet, he is just a child like Naruto, eager to get attention and recognition.
The son of a hero often has more pressure than other children.
Because people can't help but compare.
"It's good that Qing Si can win against Asuma, to temper his spirit. Asuma is a little too rebellious."
Yuhi Kurenai nodded.
She has spent less time with Sarutobi Asuma recently.
But the relationship between the two has always been good, and they can be regarded as childhood sweethearts.
She knows something about the father-son relationship between Sarutobi Asuma and the Third Hokage.
