"Oh my, this kid is really talented!"
Jiraiya, the one who never missed a chance to stir up trouble, was the first to speak. He laughed and said, "Orochimaru, this kid should be my disciple!"
Orochimaru replied, "I won't let him get in touch with you anymore. You, Jiraiya, are a fool and have a bad influence on Seisuke - kun."
Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a headache. Were kids these days really this precocious?
"What on earth is Seisuke, that fool, doing?" Asuma asked in confusion. "Wasn't he going to fight? Although the female ninja from Sunagakure is really pretty."
"None of you boys are any good!" Kurenai pouted.
Asuma thought he should clear his name and quickly said, "Kurenai, I'm not like Seisuke."
"Hmph!"
"..." Yuhi Shinku was speechless.
"So, so bold! As expected of Seisuke, he easily did something I couldn't do!" Obito clenched his fists. Should I confess to Rin after becoming a chunin?
Kakashi looked at him like he was an idiot.
"Ha ha ha, what's this Konoha genin doing? Is he here to fall in love?"
"Yeah, yeah! He's just a kid!"
"This is interesting. I'm really curious how that girl will answer. Hey! What kind of boy do you like?"
The Sunagakure side was quite indignant, especially Yotsuki's teammate, a boy with a crew - cut. "Hey! Konoha genin, don't you even think about hitting on our Yotsuki! You bastard! Do you believe I'll beat you to death?"
"Exactly! Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're handsome! Yotsuki isn't that shallow a girl."
"Referee, can we change opponents? Let me go. I want to beat this jerk!"
The referee rubbed the space between his eyebrows. But seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen watching the show with a smile, he didn't say anything. He just told the Sunagakure side not to act rashly in this match.
Upon hearing Seisuke's question, Yotsuki's pretty little face turned red. Her originally serious expression cracked, and she seemed flustered. Then she calmed down and said, "Definitely not someone like you. I hate boys like you the most!"
"Is that so? What a pity. You're so cute. You'd probably cry if I punched you, right?"
Yotsuki: "..."
Bah! Scoundrel! You just asked me what kind of boy I like, and now you're going to hit me!
Everyone: "..."
You just asked her what kind of boy she liked. Why did you change your attitude so quickly?
They couldn't keep up with Seisuke's train of thought. But Yotsuki also realized that Seisuke was teasing her. She was so ashamed and angry that she threw several shuriken at him.
Seisuke did a back - flip to dodge. Yotsuki followed up, and her delicate little fist aimed straight at his face, as if she wanted to smash his face.
Seisuke opened his hands, grabbed Yotsuki's arm, pulled her towards him, and landed a knee - strike to her stomach. He showed no mercy at all.
Enduring the pain, Yotsuki stepped back and said, "Your question just now was just to make me angry, wasn't it? What a cunning plan."
She could tell that the question was just a ploy by the other side to make her lose her temper and expose her weaknesses.
"No."
Seisuke smiled, his tone sincere. "I really wanted to know what kind of boy you like."
This guy has a devious mind!
"I won't fall into the same trap twice. However, if you, this Konoha ninja, can defeat me and become a chunin, going on a date with you isn't out of the question."
"Ah! Go on a date with me, Yotsuki - chan!" The Sunagakure side wailed.
"Yeah, yeah! What's so great about this pretty - boy from Konoha!"
"He's just handsome. There's nothing else good about him!"
"No! Yotsuki - chan will never lose to this pretty - boy from Konoha! Come on, Yotsuki - chan!"
Asuma, Seisuke's good brother, seeing the Sunagakure side cheering for Yotsuki, thought he couldn't let Seisuke lose face. He exchanged a look with Obito in the distance and shouted, "Seisuke! Beat her! I'll cover the expenses for your date!"
"Yeah! Asuma will cover the expenses for your date! Seisuke, come on!"
"..." Asuma was speechless.
"..." Sarutobi Hiruzen was also speechless.
This brat is really hopeless. I should go home and discuss having a third child with my wife.
"Let's talk about it when you grow up. I'm not interested in little girls like you who have no curves. I like mature big sisters. How about this? If you're still alive in ten years, come to Konoha, and we'll go on a date!"
As soon as these words were spoken, even Orochimaru twitched the corner of his mouth.
Jiraiya's eyes widened instantly. This kid has such deep scheming and far - reaching plans. His methods are top - notch in this era. If I had been like this back then, I wouldn't still be unmarried.
However, he's really a little lecher. He has no ability now, but is he thinking about ten years later?
Hiss～
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Orochimaru and asked, "Is this really your disciple? Are you sure he's not Jiraiya's?"
"I don't know."
For a moment, Orochimaru felt like this disciple wasn't his.
"Fine! Don't think you'll be alive when the time comes, while I'm dead!"
As a ninja, one could die any day. So, this guy might kick the bucket tomorrow!
Yotsuki also had a hot temper. She snorted and said, "I'll definitely make you look at me in a new light then!"
She was determined to become a mature big sister in the future. For now... she just hadn't reached her growth period yet!
"I'm looking forward to it!"
Seisuke smiled.
Yotsuki sneered. "Let's see if you can beat me! Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!!"
One fireball after another flew out of Yotsuki's mouth, blocking Seisuke's path.
Seisuke clapped his hands together. "Wind Release: Gale Palm!"
A strong gale blew, sending the fireballs flying. Yotsuki had already charged at him with a kunai in hand. Her slender figure showed an extremely fast speed, and in a blink of an eye, she was in front of Seisuke.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Kunai clashed. Seisuke defused each of Yotsuki's attacks with ease, showing no signs of panic. He steadily parried her attacks.
Yotsuki gritted her teeth and increased her offensive. Seisuke gradually seemed to be at a disadvantage and exposed a flaw.
Seizing the opportunity, Yotsuki stabbed the kunai towards Seisuke's throat. But he suddenly tilted his head, narrowly dodging the attack. Yotsuki was about to follow up with another attack when her arm suddenly came under attack.
Seisuke slapped her arm, causing the kunai in Yotsuki's hand to fly out. His other fist, which had been waiting for a long time, suddenly struck with force.
Bang!
The punch hit the target.
Yotsuki flew out, did a somersault in the air, and landed steadily. She covered her stomach, which was hurting like hell.
She felt like it must be swollen.
She said, "You were playing dumb the whole time, weren't you?"
"No, I just deliberately gave you an opening. Now it's my turn to attack! Wind Release: Wind Cutter Technique!" Seisuke formed hand - seals and launched a wind blade towards Yotsuki.
"Wind Release: Wind Return Technique!"
