Naruto: First Love

Chapter 66 Punishment
While Huo Wu was still wondering which of Kakashi and Shikamaru was the better man, Shikamaru saw that Kakashi's attention was on Huo Wu and he no longer released murderous intent towards her. He used the ostrich-like body-flickering technique and left.

Only after leaving Sarutobi's house did Shikamaru breathe a sigh of relief. The murderous aura he had just shown was truly life-threatening!
Why on earth did Kakashi release murderous intent towards him? He didn't do anything.

Even with his high IQ of 200, he couldn't figure out what was wrong with Kakashi. It couldn't be that he was training him with murderous aura, right?

Well, that was Huo Wu’s way. He should just ignore such a troublesome matter.

Oops, my mom told me to go to Yamashiro Shun's house, but he forgot because he was playing chess. I had said I would go after Asuma left, but now that Kakashi interrupted me, I actually forgot!

Shikamaru patted his head and walked to the other side.

He thought of Uzumaki Kushina mentioned by Huo Wu. He had seen this person in some books of Konoha. It seemed that... she was the previous Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, right?

Uzumaki Naruto... People in the village always seem to call him the demon fox. Could it be that he is now the second Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?
It’s really troublesome that ninjas can’t think like ordinary people!

Meanwhile, Huo Wu sat down on the chessboard, blinking her eyes and looking at Kakashi, looking extremely innocent.

She is indeed innocent. Kakashi threw Sasuke to her, along with a little fox. For the sake of the good friend, she came to Asuma, who got mad and fought with her, causing her to fall into Shikamaru's arms. Now Kakashi came and stared at her inexplicably, as if he was about to lose his temper. How could she not be in tears? How could she not be the most innocent?

Kakashi had no idea what Huo Wu was thinking. He just felt uncomfortable seeing Huo Wu having intimate actions with other men. As for the reason, Lord Hatake Kakashi said that he didn't care what the reason was!

"Kakashi, you..." Huo Wu was a little frightened. Kakashi's appearance was different from when he just came out of the Anbu, but Huo Wu still felt dangerous.

"Why, are you curious about my sudden return? Did I disturb your good thing?" Kakashi suppressed his anger and sneered.

What good news? Huo Wu was confused.

"What are you talking about? You haven't completed your mission yet? What are you doing here? Grandpa Sandai is not at home. He is in the Hokage Building. Go find him there."

Feeling a little confused by Kakashi's questioning, Huo Wu frowned, stood up, and jumped onto the wall without caring about the chess pieces on the ground.

Kakashi jumped up and saw that she was leaving in the same direction as Shikamaru. Thinking of what he had just seen, he frowned. Was she going to find Shikamaru again and continue the good thing that was interrupted by him?

Thinking of this, Kakashi felt very uncomfortable, and his tone began to become cold and sharp: "Why, you want to look for Shikamaru? The genius of the Nara family, you like him? No wonder you said age is not a problem, you want to be an old cow eating young grass?"

Huo Wu thought he was joking at first, but the more she listened, the more uncomfortable she felt. What did Kakashi mean by this? Why did it feel like he was scolding her?
He didn't hesitate to reply, "Ah, yes, I like him, what's the matter? What's it got to do with you? Kakashi - Teacher!"

The last two words were spoken with great emphasis, and they hit Kakashi deep in his heart.

Kakashi suddenly felt as if he had been hit hard, his heart felt heavy and there was an intense dull pain.

He actually emphasized that he is a teacher?

Kakashi had always known that whenever Huo Wu called him teacher, it was not a good thing, but now this should just be a normal conversation, why did he find it so irritating? Unacceptable?

Huo Wu was right. He was just a teacher. What right did he have to ask about Huo Wu's private life? Regardless of whether Huo Wu and Shikamaru were in love, now that Huo Wu was no longer a member of Team 7, he had even less right to ask!

So what was he angry about? He was angry for a long time, but he didn't know the reason? If other people, especially Kai, knew about it, wouldn't they laugh at him for a long time? Speaking of which, Asuma was there just now. According to Asuma's personality, he must have noticed that he was abnormal, right?
But it just so happened that he also wanted to know what was going on with him. Asuma saw it, so he must know the reason, right?
Even so, he still couldn't accept Huo Wu and Shikamaru being in love!

What's so good about Shikamaru? He's always afraid of trouble and looks careless. Such a man is not reliable at all.

Even though Shikaku always said that his son was outstanding, looking at Shikaku's expression, Kakashi didn't believe how outstanding Shikamaru was.

Even if he was Shikaku's son or Asuma's student, Kakashi thought, no matter what, if he didn't like him, he didn't like him. He would not admit that the reason he didn't like him was actually because of Huo Wu.

"Hmph, what's so good about Nara Shikamaru? He's not as strong as..." Kakashi originally wanted to talk about himself, but after thinking about it, Shikamaru is only one year younger than Huo Wu, and they are of the same generation, so he... is the elder.

Although he was reluctant to admit it, the fact was the fact. After all, Huo Wu and Naruto were classmates, and Kakashi was a student of Naruto's father. Although he was not a real elder, he was now teaching Naruto and played the role of an elder.

"A student who is not as strong as Kai, not as smart as Sasuke, and not as dumb as Naruto..."

Huo Wu was more and more confused. Gai's student? Are you talking about Lee or Neji? But Shikamaru is definitely not as good as these two. Not as smart as Sasuke? She couldn't agree with that.

If Sasuke was smart, would he not know the truth about Itachi's genocide, and let Orochimaru and then Uchiha Obito use him?
As for idiots... when someone compares one to another, do they compare idiots? They are all comparing smartness, right? Can't you find an example, Kakashi?

But after saying so much, Huo Wu finally heard a unique meaning in Kakashi's words. It seemed that Kakashi was not angry with her, but was finding fault with Shikamaru?
In other words, what he was actually angry about was the possible relationship between her and Shikamaru? She just admitted it in a rage, so now he was picking on Shikamaru?
Thinking of this, Huo Wu felt that her mood instantly turned from gloomy to sunny. The sunshine seemed brighter no matter how she looked at it, and there was a smile between her brows.

"Who said that? After all, Shikamaru is a very family-oriented person. The Nara family is dominated by their wives. Don't you know that?"

Of course, it is just said, whether it is true or not remains to be investigated.

But at this time Kakashi didn't pay attention to the details, and when he heard Huo Wu praising Shikamaru, he felt very unhappy.

Seeing Huo Wu about to jump off the wall, a very unkind stream of chakra flowed out and tripped Huo Wu's legs, causing her to stagger and fall off the wall.

They are all ninjas, and nothing will happen if they just fall from the wall. Therefore, Kakashi decided to give Huo Wu a small "punishment".
