[ " Honestly, how do you feel? " ]
[ " Hmm... " ]
[ " Although, however... " ]
[ " Although rejecting Asuma will lead to a lot of trouble in the future, it is very likely that it won't just be as simple as being given a hard time. " ]
[ " I will also be sent out to perform some extremely dangerous missions that are not rated very highly. " ]
[ " And then, mysteriously die out there. " ]
[ " After all, the position of Jōnin Instructor for Team Eight is quite special. " ]
[ " I have directly torn through this fig leaf... they might change the person in charge. " ]
[ Although she said this, there wasn't much fear on Kurenai Yuhi's pretty face. ]
[ Anko Mitarashi nodded while eating mochi dumplings. ]
[ " That is indeed the case. " ]
[ " That silly girl Yūgao thought she hid it well. " ]
[ " We guessed what she was planning to do a long time ago. " ]
[ Anko looked disdainful, curling her lips, " But that silly girl is really bold. " ]
[ " If this were discovered, it would definitely be worse for you than for her. " ]
[ Hearing this, Kurenai Yuhi smiled: " It doesn't matter, things have reached this point. " ]
[ " Now, I just feel refreshed all over. " ]
[ " My thoughts are clear~ " ]
[ " Besides, don't forget, he is from Team 7. " ]
[ " Being able to pass the assessment... looking at how confident he is, I guess Kakashi is also in his plans. " ]
[ " Really? " Anko Mitarashi was a bit skeptical. ]
[ There was no other way. ]
[ Looking at it this way, a child who had just graduated to become a Genin seemed a bit too terrifying. ]
[ How did he discover these things, think of these things, how did he evade the surveillance of the Anbu Ninja, and how did he cultivate to this level... and then there is the situation with Team Eight, no, not just that, since the strength of Team Eight is so terrifying, then the others... those who often hang out with Naruto... ]
[ " My god~! " ]
[ Anko opened her mouth wide. ]
[ The more she and her good friend Kurenai Yuhi discussed and pondered, the more terrifying it felt. ]
[ How could a Genin who just graduated have so many secrets? ]
[ " Don't rush, this is still just our guess. " ]
[ Kurenai Yuhi took a deep breath, the corners of her mouth slightly raised. ]
[ She thought that although it was unbelievable, when she thought of Naruto's background, she felt it seemed somewhat reasonable. ]
[ However, when Anko Mitarashi heard this, she became even more uncomposed. ]
[ " It's all just guessing... then what about the things we haven't guessed?! " ]
[ " Think about it, what is Naruto's identity? " ]
[ Seeing her good friend so uncomposed, Kurenai Yuhi followed her line of thought. ]
[ " The child of the Fourth Hokage and Sister Kushina... " ]
[ " No, did you forget the most important thing? " Anko Mitarashi couldn't even be bothered with her favorite mochi dumplings. ]
[ " The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?! " ]
[ " Exactly! " ]
[ Their eyes met, and the two women looked at each other. ]
[ This secret... no, this is not a secret... ]
[ Gulp— ]
[ The two of them swallowed subconsciously. ]
[ Without realizing it, both of them were already soaked in cold sweat. ]
[ " Do you think... that girl Yūgao knows? " ]
[ Anko Mitarashi said sullenly. ]
[ " Unlikely. " Kurenai Yuhi shook her head confidently. ]
[ " Yūgao... she went as far as doing this to us. " ]
[ " I guess she was just purely... bewitched. " ]
[ Anko Mitarashi: "... " ]
Yūgao Uzuki: "... "
Is it that obvious?
Fine.
These things she really hadn't thought deeply about.
" Yūgao, you really... Hahaha~ "
" But he's just a child a few years old, you don't have to be like this, right? "
" At least wait a few years! "
Anko Mitarashi laughed heartlessly at her good friend.
Kurenai Yuhi also couldn't help but laugh.
However, Yūgao Uzuki decided to just let it all hang out.
Anyway, no matter what, that was just herself in the black frame world.
She was just voicing the thoughts of her self in the black frame world.
" Isn't he almost mature then? "
" If you dare to try and steal the spot... let's duel! "
Anko Mitarashi: "... "
Kurenai Yuhi: "... "
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Of course, what if the other party doesn't let them off?
The black-framed large screen continued:
[ " Anko, you better think carefully, if you do this... " Kurenai Yuhi suddenly became serious. ]
[ " Sigh~ " ]
[ " Best friends for life! " ]
[ " Let's do it! " ]
[ " United front! " ]
[ " Anyway, I'm very dissatisfied too! " ]
[ Anko Mitarashi looked like she feared no chaos. ]
[ Kurenai Yuhi felt it was a bit funny. ]
[ But, she was very moved inside. ]
[ " Of course, before that... hehe, Yūgao~ " Suddenly, Anko Mitarashi narrowed her eyes, and a wicked smile curved on her lips. ]
[ " That's right. " Kurenai Yuhi was stunned, then immediately realized. ]
[ " Let's go, let's go. " ]
[ " The last time we ate, it was the meal that kid cooked, right? " ]
[ " I'm still thinking about it~! " ]
[ After saying that, Anko Mitarashi turned around and went to ask the boss to make a dozen servings of mochi dumplings, then dragged Kurenai Yuhi and ran towards the tavern. ]
[ " Let me tell you... don't fight a battle unprepared, although it's against the rules... well, we are forced to pick sides now, it's already against the rules, so let's not worry about that, in a moment we will do this first... then do that... " ]
[ Kurenai Yuhi's eyes widened, instinctively wanting to refuse, but she thought about it. ]
[ Looking at the sake her good friend was holding in her arms. ]
[ In the end, she couldn't resist the temptation of alcohol, and did it~! ]
[ When the two of them arrived at Yūgao Uzuki's doorstep. ]
[ The laughter of The Rookie 9 was already coming from upstairs. ]
[ Creak— ]
[ Yūgao Uzuki's front door slowly opened. ]
[ The moment she saw Yūgao Uzuki. ]
[ Kurenai Yuhi suddenly realized what she was doing. ]
[ Betraying the village?! ]
[ She subconsciously looked at Anko Mitarashi. ]
[ She found that this guy Anko was still laughing heartlessly. ]
[ Without saying a word, she dragged Yūgao Uzuki into the house, and then'spouted nonsense' there. ]
[ The confusion and bewilderment on Yūgao Uzuki's pretty face disappeared completely. ]
[ Her face was terrifyingly dark. ]
[ Kurenai Yuhi gave a bitter smile. ]
[ It's over, there's really no turning back now. ]
[ Why did she agree so muddle-headedly? ]
[ No... if it weren't for Anko's jumping logic, noticing places she hadn't paid attention to, I'm afraid Kurenai Yuhi herself hadn't discovered these things yet. ]
[ As for being forced to pick sides... ]
[ Well, Kurenai Yuhi was also a bit helpless. ]
[ Self-preservation! ]
[ The position of Jōnin Instructor for Team Eight is too important, it's the Jōnin Instructor for the heirs of three major Ninja Clans all at once! ]
[ Even if she resigned now, there would probably be problems. ]
[ It would be fine if she didn't know anything, but... the current situation would likely evolve into better killing the wrong person than letting one go! ]
[ It's just that, what surprised Kurenai Yuhi and Anko Mitarashi was that Yūgao Uzuki seemed to have noticed it long ago, but just never thought so deeply. ]
[ After listening to Anko's account, she was silent for a moment, and then a murderous look appeared on her face. ]
[ " You two, you wouldn't be thinking of competing with me, would you?! " ]
