Konoha: The Gu Master Creates the Hokage.

Chapter 38: How come it's only 30%?

The flower arranging class has ended.

Haruna Yamanaka was very generous and gave them all of her creations.

Because of this accident, Zhihui, the oil lady, had to go home.

He walked for a few minutes and then stopped.

The windows of roadside shops reflected the image of the mountain well.

Yu Nu Zhihui turned around and looked at her.

"Zhihui-kun".

Upon being discovered, Ino Yamanaka stepped forward confidently, held up a large cosmos flower, and asked, "Look, isn't it beautiful?"

"pretty."

Oil Girl Zhihui looked at her and said.

Compared to the already blooming cosmos flowers, she is like a bud, needing time and watering to bloom.

"How about we exchange our works?"

Yamanaka Ino revealed her purpose.

Yu Nu Zhihui nodded.

He didn't care whether it was a sunflower or a cosmos.

Yamanaka Ino's face immediately lit up with a happy smile.

Holding the sunflower, her eyes filled with seriousness, she said, "I will definitely make sure it blooms for a long time."

Although in the eyes of Yu Nuzhihui, it was a futile effort.

Because flowers eventually wither.

He believed in the principle of "pluck the flower while it blooms, lest you break a bare branch when the flower is gone."

"Zhihui-kun".

Yamanaka Ino looked up at him and said, "Come visit my house sometime when you have time."

After saying that, without waiting for Zhihui's reply, she turned and ran away.

Her golden ponytail swayed behind her head until it disappeared completely with her figure.

So that's what you were planning?

Oil Girl Zhihui couldn't help but smile.

The afternoon class is the Three Bodies Techniques class.

Just like in the original work, the worst one is Naruto Uzumaki.

But the difference is that he wasn't frustrated.

All he can think about right now is physical combat techniques.

"Before get out of class ended, the teacher said something."

Iruka Umino closed his textbook and said, "Since Mizuki-sensei is on leave, I will be teaching the second-year class A next week."

Oil Girl Zhihui raised an eyebrow.

There are three familiar faces in Class 2-A: Hyuga Neji, Rock Lee, and Tenten.

The last three of the Konoha Twelve.

As for Shuimu, he didn't have much of an impression of her.

All I remember is that he encouraged Naruto Uzumaki to steal the Book of Seals.

But Shiki Aburame felt it was Hiruzen Sarutobi's indulgence and scheme.

It's absurd that a mere genin could steal a sealing book filled with forbidden techniques so easily.

"For convenience, we'll have the practical lessons all at the same time."

Iruka Umino smiled and said, "Class 2-A has Neji Hyuga, who is the best student in the whole school."

Uchiha Sasuke immediately raised his head.

He showed interest.

The Hyuga clan was as famous as the Uchiha clan, so he naturally paid attention to them.

I had long heard of the genius Hyuga Neji.

But he didn't know the extent of their actual strength.

You can try it now.

Before enrolling in the academy, Uchiha Sasuke had already set his goals.

He wanted to graduate with the highest score in the entire school, just like his older brother, Uchiha Itachi.

At that time, he had already identified Hyuga Neji as someone he had to defeat.

Unexpectedly, he suffered his first major setback, being defeated twice in a row by Aburame Zhihui.

"Neji-nii-nii."

Hinata Hyuga felt a tightness in her chest.

Their relationship deteriorated rapidly after Hyuga Neji planted the Caged Bird Seal.

She didn't know how to face him again.

"get out of class dismissed."

Iruka Umino left the classroom with his textbook.

The students went home, leaving only Uchiha Sasuke and a few others.

"fishing!"

Naruto Uzumaki said excitedly, "I'm definitely going to catch the most this time."

"it's me."

Uchiha Sasuke walked past him.

"impossible!"

Naruto Uzumaki chased after him, saying defiantly.

"idiot."

Uchiha Sasuke curled his lip.

If it weren't for Aburame Shiki, he would never have imagined that he would have to compete with Uzumaki Naruto.

Even fishing.

In his opinion, Naruto Uzumaki was a loser.

What level are you? Become my friend.

Sasuke Uchiha only acknowledges Shiki Aburame.

Because he is strong enough.

"That Naruto guy!"

Sakura Haruno ran forward angrily.

Oil Girl Zhihui stood up and walked out unhurriedly.

"Zhihui-kun".

Yamanaka Ino chatted with him with a smile, "My mother says you have a real talent for flower arranging."

Hinata Hyuga was quite quiet.

She didn't know what to say.

"As expected of Shiki-kun."

Kiba Inuzuka looked around and said.

"Do you want to be like that too?"

Nara Shikamaru, with his hands behind his head, asked.

"In no mood."

Kiba Inuzuka shook his head and said seriously, "I prefer dogs to girls."

"Haven't you chosen a dog yet?"

Nara Shikamaru was somewhat surprised.

The Inuzuka clan possesses a secret technique for fusing with dogs.

Each member will have a dog, which is their lifelong companion and serves multiple purposes.

"no."

Kiba Inuzuka said with a sullen look, "I don't really like any of them."

"No rush, take your time."

Aburame Shino interjected, "It's not too late to wait until you graduate."

"Shino, when did you get here?"

Kiba Inuzuka asked in surprise.

"..."

Aburame Shino replied expressionlessly, "I've always been behind you."

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Kiba Inuzuka quickly said.

"fine."

Shino Aburame didn't care.

He had gotten used to being ignored.

When we got to the riverbank, just like last time, we kept a certain distance and started fishing.

Having won once, Yu Nu Zhihui lost his competitive spirit.

Only Uchiha Sasuke unleashed his full potential, becoming more serious than ever before.

The fishing competition ended an hour later.

"How many?"

Sasuke Uchiha immediately looked at Naruto Uzumaki.

He was incredibly nervous inside, but his face remained unchanged, as aloof as ever.

"You're asking me?"

Naruto Uzumaki looked surprised.

"It's you."

"Uchiha Sasuke said."

"They looked down on me before, but they still do now..."

Upon receiving confirmation, Naruto Uzumaki immediately became smug.

"Shut up."

Sasuke Uchiha, growing impatient, asked, "How much exactly?"

"Seven articles."

Naruto Uzumaki slightly raised his chin and asked, "So? Have you given up?"

"I have nine."

Uchiha Sasuke didn't even look at him, walked towards Aburame Shiki, and said, "I won."

Naruto Uzumaki stood there, stunned.

"When will we spar?"

"Is it possible?" asked Zhihui, the oil-producing woman, casually.

"tomorrow."

Sasuke Uchiha paused for a moment, then said, "I have a question."

"What?"

Oil Girl Zhihui looked up at him.

"How much of your strength did you bring in the last match?"

Uchiha Sasuke took a deep breath and asked.

Do you want the truth or a lie?

Oil Girl Zhihui countered with a question.

"Of course it's the truth."

Uchiha Sasuke gave a light snort and said.

"Thirty percent."

"That's what Yu Nu Zhihui said in a calm tone."

Of all the Gu he had, he only used the Jade Skin Gu, the White Pig Gu, and the Black Pig Gu.

The latter two still held back their strength.

The other types of Gu, such as Moonlight Gu, Small Light Gu, and Bone Spear Gu, were not used.

Sasuke Uchiha's expression froze, his face filled with disbelief.

How come it's only 30%?

In both matches, he felt that Aburame Shiki hadn't used his full strength.

He had expected a 70% chance, but it turned out to be only 30%.

"You lied to me!"

Sasuke Uchiha stared intently at Shiki Aburame.
