Naruto: Sasuke loves to visit forums

Chapter 97 Neji’s Anxiety

Sasuke took the apple and casually chatted with Tenten.

"What about you? How are you recovering from your injuries?"

"Me? I'm already fine."

Smile every day. Without stopping, he picked up a new apple from the fruit basket and started peeling it.

In the blink of an eye, another perfect apple was peeled, and this time it was handed to Neji's hand.

"Sasuke, am I useless?"

Sasuke had just taken a bite of the apple, and before he could swallow it, he suddenly heard Neji ask.

"Why, cough, cough, cough, how could it be possible?"

Sasuke replied quickly.

Hinata Neji just looked down at the apple and stopped talking.

All along, as he fought side by side with Sasuke, Neji has been leaping forward to challenge strong men far beyond his own strength.

Both Gaara in the tailed beast form and Kimimaro in the cursed seal state completely crushed Neji in the battle, causing a huge blow to his heart.

His vision has always been limited to Konoha Village. Everyone said that he was a genius, and Neji also thought that he was indeed good.

Maybe a little worse than Sasuke, but not too much.

There is no need to say more about his peers.

However, Kimimaro and others made him realize that the world was much bigger than he imagined.

If he thought this was a rare exception when he mentioned Gaara, then Kimimaro's appearance convinced Neji.

If you enlarge the scope, your own strength may really not be worth mentioning.

Compared to the beginning, Ningji now begins to doubt more and more whether he is still strong enough to fulfill his original dream.

At this time, seeing Uchiha Sasuke visiting, this emotion was further amplified.

Seeing that Sasuke is growing faster and faster, if this continues, sooner or later he will become a laggard.

At that time, the so-called mutual help will become a one-sided charity.

And this was something Hyuga Neji couldn't tolerate.

"I have always been told that the Byakugan is the number one pupil technique in the ninja world. I also firmly believe that as long as its abilities are fully developed, we can reach unrivaled heights. However."

Neji's voice was low and he spoke slowly.

It was like confessing to Sasuke, more like telling it to myself.

Sasuke didn't know what to say for a moment, he just lowered his head and chewed the apple silently.

//

"Genuinely consistent! Positive caring! Empathy!"

//

Somehow, the netizen's words flashed through Sasuke's mind again.

Thinking of this, Sasuke stabilized his mood, thought for a moment, raised his head and said:

"The so-called power is nothing more than Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, and Illusion.

"However, the Hyuga clan is too obsessed with physical skills and has seriously underdeveloped the other two. Even in physical skills, the attack method is too single and they are obsessed with close combat."

When Neji heard this, he raised his head suddenly, his confused and frustrated expression swept away, replaced by frowning thoughts.

"Although I don't have a good idea at the moment, we can think about it together about the direction of practice. Speaking of which, we can also ask outstanding seniors for advice."

Neji nodded repeatedly, thinking that Sasuke was going to help him seek advice from Lord Jiraiya.

But how could he have imagined that the seniors Sasuke was thinking of at this moment were actually those forum netizens with great powers.

With the depressed atmosphere gone, Sasuke chatted with the two for a while, talking about Kimimaro's condition, and then stood up to say goodbye. Not long after I walked out of the ward, I suddenly heard someone shouting from behind:

"Sasuke-kun!"

Sasuke turned around and found that Tenten was chasing him, and couldn't help but look at him in confusion.

"I want to tell you," Tiantian calmed his breathing and said sincerely, "Thank you."

"Ever since I met you, Neji seems to have changed. He is more positive and uplifting. His personality is much more cheerful than before, and his relationship with me is also..."

Tiantian's face turned slightly red, then he raised his head again and said loudly:

"I heard that no matter how excellent a weapon is, if it is not in the hands of the right person, it will gradually become dim and dusty."

"On the contrary, if you can meet the famous master, even if the weapon is not that top-notch in the first place, with careful care and correct use, it can move the world with its name and shine brilliantly."

"First there are knights, then famous swords. This has always been the case in this world."

Tiantian said this, stood where he was, and gave him the Eastern gift.

Hearing such words, Sasuke was quite surprised, and he quickly imitated Tenten to return the favor and bid farewell solemnly.

As he walked on the road, Sasuke felt mixed emotions stirring in his heart.

While feeling grateful for the deep friendship between Tenten and Neji, he also recalled the changes that his and Neji's agreement had brought to each other.

Speaking of which, the reason why Tiantian came here to say these things to him was all for Neji's sake, right?

Is this what is called love?

Sasuke thought wildly.

Compared with the supportive friendship between companions, the two of them do have a bit more in-depth understanding and mutual support between husband and wife.

Before this, Sasuke had rarely been exposed to this aspect of things.

Sasuke smiled to himself and didn't think more about it.

I just felt that I never expected that such a wonderful opportunity would arise from a single-minded decision.

Not only did he become brighter, but Neji also changed himself. As time went by, it eventually indirectly contributed to the romance between him and Tiantian.

Between the cause and effect of one drink and one peck, such beautiful flowers and fruits were produced, and Sasuke felt happy in his heart.

Sasuke further deepened his understanding of the difference between "walking in a group and walking alone" that netizens had told him before.

Unknowingly, Sasuke arrived at the door of Shizune-senpai's ward.

So I stopped thinking about it, pushed the door open and walked in, chatting a few words.

It wasn't until it was getting late that I returned to the Hokage's house again.
-

Today, Jiraiya is learning to cook. It's not delicious, but it's not hard to swallow.

Sasuke frowned and took the slightly burnt fried angler fish into his mouth.

Naruto on the side seemed unable to distinguish the quality of the ingredients, and just ate the meal in a daze, as if he was in a state of wandering.

"How's it going? Is there any progress on Kimimaro's side?"

Jiraiya asked.

"Not good, the condition is very bad."

Sasuke shook his head, not knowing whether he was talking about fish or answering Jiraiya's question.

Seeing his master still staring at him, Sasuke continued:

"Although I can't say that I want to die, it's almost the same. I'm in a low mood and have no interest in anything. I look like I'm just following you."

Jiraiya frowned and was lost in thought. He unknowingly ate a piece of half-cooked potato and began to slurp.

On the other side, Naruto just glanced at Jiraiya, and instead of saying anything like before, he continued to eat the food in the bowl.

Sasuke noticed that Naruto's palms were tightly bandaged, and the charred palms were exposed in the gaps between the frayed bandages.
