"Yes!" Obito Uchiha nodded without hesitation: "I want to!"

"The time before last, I was careless and he managed to sneak up on me."

"Last time, I did win, but that despicable guy actually used his injury to gain Lin's sympathy."

"So I want to have a fair fight with him!"

Kakashi Hatake: "Actually, it's not like there's no chance."

Obito Uchiha's eyes lit up! He looked at Kakashi Hatake expectantly.

Kakashi Hatake said, "You have a high chance of running into the Chunin Exams, which are held every year."

"When the time comes, we'll settle scores and avenge our grievances."

"Huh?" Obito Uchiha said disappointedly, "Doesn't that mean it will take a long time?"

Kakashi Hatake raised an eyebrow: "Are you in a hurry?"

Obito Uchiha nodded.

Kakashi Hatake remained silent for a moment. Just when Obito Uchiha thought his aloof teammate was giving him advice, the other man's words delivered a devastating blow.

"Don't rush. If I'm not mistaken, you might not be his match."

Obito Uchiha was stunned. After a moment, he glared at him and said angrily, "You don't even know him! What makes you think I'm no match for him!"

Kakashi Hatake: "Intuition."

"Furthermore, only the weak keep shouting. If you were truly stronger than Shenyue Xingyun, you wouldn't have been so careless last time."

Obito Uchiha's face turned bright red.

Chapter 50 The Unsuspecting Red Bean

Seeing Obito Uchiha looking constipated, Kakashi Hatake was a little worried about him, so he asked casually, "Do you need some toilet paper?"

"If needed, Lin and I will take some."

Obito Uchiha: "..."

"What are you two saying?" Nohara Rin turned around from the front: "If you don't hurry up, Mrs. Kawashima will get anxious."

The two then ended their conversation and quickened their pace to catch up with Rin Uenohara.

"Obito, what were you and Kakashi talking about just now?" Nohara Rin asked curiously as the two followed.

Obito Uchiha was speechless.

To be honest, it was impossible for him to deal with Shenyue Xingyun, so he just made it up on the spot.

"It's nothing, I was just telling Kakashi about some interesting things that happened recently."

"An interesting story?" Nohara Rin asked curiously, "What interesting story? Tell me about it."

Obito Uchiha hurriedly thought of what interesting things had happened in Konoha recently, and after thinking for a while, he found that there really were some!

"Lin, have you heard? There's been a strange person in Konoha lately."

"wack?"

"Yes, a weirdo!"

"Why is there one more? Was it already there?"

“You’re right.” Obito Uchiha nodded. “I’ve heard that every day before dawn, a strange man dressed in green appears on the outskirts of Konoha, acting suspiciously.”

"This situation has been going on for many years."

Kakashi Hatake suddenly slowed his pace.

"Some people say that he is a freak from the ninja academy who trains outside the village every morning."

As he spoke, he looked at Nohara Rin: "Rin, have you heard of this freak?"

Nohara Rin shook her head.

Obito Uchiha continued, "I don't think so either."

"But recently, it seems the number of weirdos has increased from one to two!"

"One of them would occasionally let out a chilling scream."

“Someone has already reported this to the security forces.”

Nohara Rin asked in surprise, "Really?"

"You didn't just make up this story, did you?"

Obito Uchiha immediately panicked: "How could this be!"

"Lin, how could I lie to you? It's really true!"

"I heard from the elders in the clan that the guards have indeed received this news and are preparing to investigate."

The two chattered away, unaware that Kakashi Hatake, standing nearby, seemed somewhat dazed.

As he listened to Obito Uchiha's startled account, a familiar green figure appeared in his mind.

"Kakashi! I challenge you!"

"Thank you for your support!"

The boy's gleaming white teeth seemed to flash before his eyes. He was certain that the strange person Obito Uchiha had spoken of was indeed this guy!

Matt Kai!

But who is the other strange person?

Another juvenile weirdo? Or is it a clone of the other person?

Memories kept replaying in his mind as he thought of the boy who always challenged him. Kakashi Hatake sighed inwardly.

'It seems like it's been a long time since we last met.'

'Let's go see him after we're done with this busy period...'

...

The sun was shining brightly in the afternoon.

On the streets of Konoha, which seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light, Mitarashi Anko held several strings of three-colored dumplings in her hand, eating them one by one.

But even my favorite meatballs didn't taste as good as they used to.

The reason I'm unhappy is because of my best friend, Uzuki Yugao.

Mitarashi Anko notices that her best friend has been acting strangely lately.

She asked for leave from school many times, always because her grandmother was sick, her mother had a fever, or her aunt had come. Because of her excellent grades, the teacher didn't say anything, but she found it very strange.

Occasionally, without asking for leave, he would rush home from school, as if something urgent had happened.

They don't even have time for me anymore.

"Xiyan, shall we go eat dango after school?"

"Oh? Red Bean, I'm sorry, I have something to do tonight."

"Xiyan, let's go catch butterflies tomorrow."

"Sorry, Red Bean, Dad is going to teach me swordsmanship tomorrow."

"Xi Yan, shall we go find Xingyun tomorrow?"

"Ah!... Well, Red Bean, why don't you go by yourself? I twisted my ankle during training last night and don't want to go out."

As a result, she hasn't been able to get together with her best friends for a while now.

The frustrating thing is that Shenyue Xingyun doesn't know what's going on, but she hasn't been seen at all lately.

Looking at the last dumpling in her hand, Mitarashi Anko mistook it for Shinzuki Seiun and swallowed it with a "whoosh".

"Ugh! They're all nowhere to be found, so annoying!"

Meanwhile, at the Valley of the End.

The clear spring water gurgled, and the splashing water vapor dispelled the heat in the air.

Riverside.

Young men and women danced gracefully, their longswords twirling and blossoming in their hands.

The scene was picturesque.

However, the two men did not move quickly. Sometimes their swords overlapped, and they swung their arms in unison, as if they were one person.

If someone were to see this, they wouldn't think it was a sword sparring match, but rather a young couple showing their affection for each other.

"cough!"

“Xiyan, how about… we take a break?” Shenyue Xingyun suggested during the brief moment when the two swords separated.

“Okay~” Uzuki Yugao replied with a light laugh, and her sword flashed as it went back into its sheath.

Seeing that Shenyue Xingyun had breathed a sigh of relief and found a flat shady spot to sit down, she naturally moved over and sat down close to her.

The Divine Moon Nebula was helpless.

"Evening Glory".

"Ok?"

"It's quite hot, there's no need to get so close."

"No, I don't feel hot."

"I'm sweating."

"No way."

"Seriously, you smell like sweat. Should we separate a bit?"

"Nonsense, it doesn't smell bad at all. I think it's fine."
