Konoha's strongest substitute user

Chapter 10⑨: Hatake and Uchiha

Thanks to the fact that he woke up angry was widely circulated within the Hyuga family, Dongxing had a good night's sleep.

When he walked out of the room, he happened to see Neji and Hiashi sparring in the yard. Hinata was watching. Hanabi was sitting on the steps from the corridor to the yard, with a drawing board on his lap.

Seeing such scenes, Dongxing always feels a sense of accomplishment.

Recently, the old tsundere Hinata Hizu seemed to have a new idea, getting along with the three brothers and sisters more and more harmoniously.

As members of the Byakugan family, Hiashi and Neji, who were fighting with their Byakugan, certainly noticed Tohoshi coming out of the room, but the two of them did not stop.

Dongxing stretched and yawned and walked behind Hanabi. He waved with Hinata to indicate that there was no need to be polite, and then looked at the drawing board on Hanabi's ham.

On the drawing board is a work that looks more abstract and closer to a sketch. It depicts the scene of Hizu and Neji boxing.

The pen used by Hanabi was specially customized by Dongxing from a blacksmith. It is made of metal that is relatively suitable for chakra transmission. The entire pen tube is empty and is used to hold finely ground charcoal powder. The pen tip is conical. shape, open the top directly, and if there is no chakra control, the toner will flow out directly like sand in an hourglass. In order to draw with such a stroke, Hanabi must always use his own chakra to limit the flow of toner. speed, and even shapes the toner on the pen tip to meet the needs of drawing various lines and shading.

This is also the reason why Hanabi's current paintings are still very abstract. On the one hand, it is because the painting technique is indeed for beginners, and on the other hand, it is really difficult to paint with such a pen.

But this is practice.

Looking at this painting, the uneven flow rate of toner caused the lines to be intermittent, and sometimes the shades were intertwined. The facial features were blurred together due to the inability to describe the lines finely. It was only possible to barely tell what was drawn from the movements and clothes. Dongxing looked at this painting. He stretched out his hand and rubbed the top of Hanabi's head: "It must be a drawing of Hiashi and Neji. The grabbing action is very good. It looks very agile."

Hanabi shook her head and shook Tohoshi's hand away, and then said hello: "Tōhoshi-sensei."

Well, Hinata and Hanabi are more well-behaved. If it were Sakura, she would be furious by now.

"East Star, you finally woke up." Hizu and Neji signaled, stopped sparring, and walked towards East Star.

Taking the towel handed by Hinata and wiping the sweat on his forehead, Hizucai continued: "Kakashi came to see you when you were sleeping. It seems that he came to visit the Uchiha child in the hospital with you. , I saw you were sleeping, so I refused for you."

In fact, Dongxing really wanted to defend himself. He really didn't go crazy when he woke up. Only by making loud noises or directly attacking him while he was asleep would he get angry when he wakes up. A good wakeup would definitely not Question, but it doesn’t matter whether this kind of thing can be explained or not: "Really? Thank you. When did Kakashi come?"

Rizu raised his head and looked at the position of the sun: "About...an hour ago."

"It's okay, I happen to be planning to go see Li and Sasuke."

I don't know if being easily defeated by Li again hit Sasuke too much. However, when he had deliberately let off steam and fought Sasuke a few times, allowing Sasuke to experience the improvement in strength brought by the curse seal, if the second pillar suffered such a small blow, he would become nervous, unable to see the situation clearly, and still want to go to Orochimaru. Bian, then it’s really hopeless. Whether to cut it or boil it depends on how the village negotiates with the Uchiha disciples.

Dongxing always dresses in uniform anyway, and the Sanqiao cosplay suit has long been hung in the room for collection. There is no need to prepare or pack anything: "Then I'll go out."

Hizu casually replied, "Be careful on the road," and then devoted himself to giving advice to Neji. Maybe he felt that he owed Neji a lot before, but now Hizu spent more time teaching Neji than Hanabi.

After all, he was going to the hospital to visit patients. Dongxing perfunctorily picked the two fruit baskets closest to the cashier at the fruit shop he passed by, and walked towards Konoha Hospital with the fruit baskets.

When he reached the end of Mingcha Street near the hospital, Dongxing happened to bump into Kakashi with his hands behind his head and Naruto and Sakura who seemed to be arguing. The three of them were standing in a shop selling various products. The entrance to a small shop selling snacks and fried noodles.

"Hey, I heard Hizu say that you left to go to the hospital to see Sasuke an hour ago, didn't you?" Dongxing approached Kakashi, and the two people in front of the business window were still bickering.

Kakashi squinted his eyes towards Dongxing and rolled his eyes: "Ah...that was originally the case, but he met Naruto and Sakura on the way."

"and then"

Kakashi's words were a little weak: "Then they argued about what Sasuke likes to eat for almost half an hour, and they haven't come to a result yet."

"Hey, if you are not sure what to buy, you will miss the time to eat." Kakashi reminded the two people who were still struggling, and then walked forward to take a paper box and disposable chopsticks handed out by the boss from the window. There seemed to be a salt-roasted saury inside. It seemed that the reason Sakura and Naruto were blocking the boss's business window and not being kicked out was because Kakashi ordered a dish first.

Dongxing's eyes lit up. He had never eaten in this store before. It seemed that all the food here could be packaged and tasted pretty good.

By the time Sakura was carrying a portion of tomato fried noodles, the sun was dimming as the four of them walked on the road to Konoha Hospital.

"You guys go find Sasuke first. The fried noodles won't be good if they get cold. I'm going to visit Li." Although Sasuke's ward is next to Li's, you have to go through Sasuke's to get to Li's ward, and Class 7 also needs some. Time communicates without outsiders.

After Dongxing finished speaking, he moved on and pushed open the door of Li's ward.

Kakashi watched Dongxing walk into Li's ward, shrugged, reached out and knocked on the wooden door in front of him.

dong dong dong.....

dong dong dong.....

There was no response at all.

Sakura lowered her voice: "Is Sasuke sleeping?"

It was in vain to ask. Without entering the ward, no one except Byakugan could see what Sasuke was doing.

The first thought that came to Naruto's mind was that Sasuke wouldn't have escaped again.

When this idea came to mind, Naruto couldn't wait at all. He turned the door handle and pushed open the door. He let out a silly laugh and said loudly: "Sasuke, we came to see you and brought you dinner. Get up." It’s time to eat”

Walking into the ward, Naruto finally felt relieved when he saw Sasuke sitting on the bed with his back against the headboard. At this time, Sakura, who was a little embarrassed, and Kakashi, who had his hands in his pockets, followed Naruto into the room.

But what greeted him was Sasuke's cold and rejecting response: "What are you doing here?"

Sasuke was already determined to defeat those who he could not defeat one by one and then seek revenge on Uchiha Itachi. Naruto and Sakura happened to be among the targets Sasuke wanted to challenge. In addition, in Sasuke's heart, he had already defected. As a person, I have also made a mental preparation to draw a clear line with Konoha. As a result, before it was over, he was forcibly taken back to Konoha Village, stuffed into Konoha Hospital, and put under surveillance. Now Sasuke saw the faces of these former acquaintances and friends as if they were looking at enemies, always with a Hostile.

Sasuke's sense of belonging to Konoha has dropped to freezing point.

As long as Sasuke is still staying well in Konoha, Naruto will feel at ease: "Really, what are you talking about? We are your teammates. We will definitely come to visit you when you are injured and hospitalized."

Sasuke actually knew that Kakashi, Naruto and Sakura cared about him sincerely, but Sasuke put too much pressure on himself and was too decisive in his positioning. He could no longer respond to these kind words. In the end, Sasuke could only To be able to make such a sound and then stop talking.

"Ah......"

Sakura put the bag containing the tomato fried noodles packaging box on the bedside table, and said to Sasuke in a voice that was almost pleading: "Sasuke-kun, this is the fried noodles I just bought. I haven't eaten anything in the hospital for a day, so you can only eat a little bit of this." Recover soon."

Sasuke didn't even react at all, he just looked down at the white sheets.

Kakashi put his hands on the shoulders of Sakura and Naruto, ignoring Naruto's resistance, and led them to turn around: "Sakura, and Naruto, you two go out and wait for a while, I have something to say to Sasuke. Let’s talk alone.”

"But, Kakashi-sensei"

"No buts."

After pushing the two people out of the ward, Kakashi sat on the chair next to Sasuke's bed: "You know the current situation."

There wasn't even a hint of question in Kakashi's words, because Sasuke definitely knew the answer to the question.

Seeing that Sasuke remained silent and looked like he wanted to deal with it coldly, Kakashi didn't mind: "Although Kujo Tosei doesn't know why he wants to cover for you, anyway..."

"He's not helping me"

The sound of fists hitting flesh suddenly came from the door, causing Naruto and Sakura outside the door to panic. Just as they were about to break into the room, someone held their shoulders down.

A punch landed on Sasuke's face. Kakashi took a deep breath and sat back in the chair, pinching his fingers: "Anyway... you are still a genin in the village now, not a traitor. You have to be grateful for this." Kujo Tosei and Shikamaru, including Naruto and Sakura."

Sasuke was about to speak but was forced back by Kakashi's eyes.

Kakashi, the Konoha technician, also rose from fighting on the battlefield to the position of Jonin since he was a child. His aura is no worse than that of Zabuza who scared Sasuke.

"Your current situation is treated by the village as being affected by the curse seal, so you are unconscious." Kakashi did not intend to endure Sasuke's interjection before he finished speaking. He used it very softly, just enough for Sasuke. The heard voice continued: "So, for you, no matter what, you must cooperate with this reason, if you don't want to die in the village before completing your goal, or be imprisoned and never have a chance to succeed."

After saying this, Kakashi's voice returned to normal: "In general, as your teacher, I am very disappointed with you. In fact, I have been a little bit since the beginning of the chunin exams."

"You are just like me back then, a so-called genius with a lot of halo." Kakashi put a finger under his forehead protector and clasped the corners of his itchy eyes: "But since you formed Team 7, you The progress is the least. You were the calmest during the mission in the Land of Waves. You were the only one who could stand up and fight normally when facing the ninja enemy for the first time. I once thought you were braver and better than Naruto and Sakura, but That doesn’t seem to be the case..."

Sasuke's face became worse and worse, but Kakashi continued without mercy: "Your self-deceptive self-confidence was the source of your good performance at that time. When this self-confidence is gone, look at what you look like now. I rarely say so many words, and the reason why I say so many words to you now is just because you..."

Kakashi pointed the index finger of the hand that had just hit Sasuke into Sasuke's eyes: "It's so childish and disappointing. Everything you have done since you arrived at the hospital proves this."

"Don't use any more force, you'll have to pay for it if it's torn." Dongxing, who appeared behind Kakashi at some point, reminded Sasuke so that the quilt in Sasuke's hand could survive.

After driving Naruto and Sakura to Li, Dongxing came to Sasuke: "Kakashi is right, you just want to become stronger to achieve a certain purpose..." . No matter what the purpose is, in short, you still have a lot to improve in terms of the process."

"By the way, I just heard from Li that you issued a challenge to him. It's good." Dongxing patted Kakashi on the shoulder: "Kai has been fighting with Kakashi all day long. Now you have nothing to do to bother him. Li, this can be considered a slight improvement."

After Tohoshi arrived, Sasuke seemed even more autistic. After all, for Sasuke, the culprit of the current situation was Tohoshi.

But Dongxing brought Sasuke the only good news so far: "There is also a question about your curse seal. Neither Tsunade-sama nor I can separate this thing from your body, so maybe you can still Use this thing before it corrodes your body to the point where it can no longer bear it. As long as you can prove that at least your brain is free from the control of the curse seal, you know what I mean."

The curse seal can still be retained... Such a powerful force can still be retained...

This is really the best news I have heard since lying on this hospital bed.

Sasuke's expression finally softened a little: "I understand."

Tsk tsk tsk... Dongxing shook his head. Although the answer was not unexpected, it fully proved that Sasuke was still towards Orochimaru from the bottom of his heart.

It doesn't matter, anyway, Kakashi will be monitoring Sasuke from now on. If Kakashi is gone, someone else will take over, and Sasuke will not have access to all the important information in the village.

Let's just wait and see if the positive little ninjas headed by Naruto can win over Sasuke, a troubled boy.

After coming out of Sasuke's hospital room and saying hello to Naruto, Kakashi and Tosei sat in the store where they bought Sasuke dinner.

Dongxing actually wanted to go back to Hinata's house and pay attention to the training progress of the official disciples, but he was stopped by Kakashi: "Why did you suddenly chat with me? Don't worry about your three students?"

Kakashi sipped the wine from the wine bottle with a straw like the ANBU boy who had been monitoring Dongxing before: "I have something troubling to ask you."

I was shocked, Kakashi was troubled, and then asked me

Dong Xing expressed confusion.

"I want to ask you what you thought when you taught Sakura and Li how to stand as a substitute." Kakashi's eyes were rare and serious: "I heard that Hinata of the Hinata family is your disciple, and you also I taught it to her, but she hasn't learned it yet. Why is it so easy for a substitute to teach a unique skill that only you know to someone who has nothing to do with it?"

Although Dongxing didn't understand why Kakashi was crazy enough to ask him such a question, Kakashi was a friend, so Dongxing still answered patiently and truthfully: "Because the realms are different."

Worried that Kakashi would misunderstand, Dongxing quickly added: "It's not that so-called realm, how should I put it..."

"Just listen if you understand, forget it if you don't understand." Dongxing felt that this situation was a bit difficult to explain, and he couldn't explain it clearly: "In my eyes, Konoha is Konoha, it is neither the third generation nor the third generation. The Konoha of the fifth generation is not the Konoha of the Hyuga family or the Senju clan. And I am me, and I don’t want to have any other attributes or functions added for the time being. I like the current Konoha, so I am willing to do these things. Where should I be? One day it doesn't suit my taste, and I won't wrong myself. This is how I see Li or Sakura, or even Hinata, they are just Konoha ninjas that I like."

Seeing Kakashi's semi-comprehensive look, Tohoshi could only shrug.

Kakashi's throat had been throbbing regularly, and it was obvious that the wine in the flask was almost empty.

Kujo Tosei can do such a thing, what about me?
