Chapter 52: Unintentional Shuriken Teaching from Young Kakashi
Kakashi threw a thin notebook he had placed in the chamber of his desk down the classroom window.
Yu dangled from side to side trying to catch it, but was slapped back into the window by the real black who suddenly jumped out.
Kakashi was stunned for a moment before leaning over to dodge.
Then he took the notebook and flipped it out of the classroom and slammed it shut the window from the outside.
"Here you go, go back and see it yourself, don't ask me if you don't understand."
Kakashi slapped the notebook into Yu's hand and pulled out some shuriken from his own shinobi bag.
- "It just so happens that there is a ready-made practice venue here, so let's teach you how to throw shuriken first, so as not to embarrass me with a zero score in the quiz!" That guy seems to think I've been teaching you since before, so you'll have to practice! ”
He stuffed half of the shuriken in his ninja bag into Yu's hand, pinched the remaining ones himself, and stood opposite the stake with the target nailed.
Yu weighed the shuriken the size of his own palm a few times, and didn't observe Kakashi's posture very carefully.
She once learned to throw because 'it will be handsome if you throw it'.
It's really hard for people who haven't practiced to shoot, and if they don't hit it all in front of others like Obito...... It's really humiliating.
Kakashi threw out an unknown number of them, but in short, all the shurikens in his hand were nailed to the targets behind him, and the targets in front were empty, as if he chose the rear targets to show his superb skills.
"It's your turn."
Kakashi turned to face Hirowa Maguro and gestured behind him with his thumb outstretched.
It is said to be taught, but in fact, it is only a demonstration.
"Oh."
Yu nodded in agreement and took a deep breath.
[I haven't played it for a long time.,I've forgotten a lot of the feel.,Anyway, try your best.] ]
She didn't think she could hit the target in the back, so she set her sights on the target in the center of the front.
[My dominant hand is right-handed, so when I throw it, I will probably not be in the middle of it, and it will probably be tilted to the right side......]
Yu stood where Kakashi had just been, took a small half step to the left, picked up a shuriken, and turned his head to look at the target on his right.
"If you throw it together, it's too weak if you only have one at a time."
Kakashi crossed his arms and stood far, far away from the target.
Maybe Obito was impressed by the fact that he often accidentally threw it at the teacher during class.
Tokuhiro felt that it would be a great sense of accomplishment if he aimed at Kakashi and threw it again.
She resisted Pippi's urge to squeeze all the shuriken between her fingers, flipping her wrist and accumulating little by little.
"Whew-"-Bang Bang! ”
The sound of breaking the air was followed by the sound of objects being shot, and four of the five shurikens were hit.
But three of them were nailed to the stake, and only one shuriken was nailed to the target.
But he didn't hit the bull's-eye.
"It's still far from me, but it's a lot better than that stupid guy, not bad."
Kakashi didn't expect much from his peers other than himself, and said yes without saying anything nonchalant, then reached out to the targets.
- "Alright, pull those off and keep practicing!" ”
Yu snorted and ran over to pull out the shurikens, including those that Kakashi had thrown.
[It's okay anyway, so let's just exercise.] ]
She pulled it out and stood back again, this time facing the target.
Yu plans to try more directions, preferably in the future to a place where he can throw at unnatural angles.
For example, standing on a podium in a classroom and throwing it at a target outside the window.
But that's all she thought.
-
Yu's hit rate is not high, but he didn't drop short outside the range of the stake, so he is generally considered to be at a lower to mid-level level.
Maguro had a large bag of individually wrapped rice balls around his neck, and Yu put it in the bag when he got Kakashi's notebook.
She watched Yu practice there, her eyes moving with the small shuriken, and she wanted to go over and get them.
But it will hinder Yu, and it will also hurt yourself.
True Black squatted calmly not far behind Yu, his tail hooking uncontrollably.
Kakashi got bored after looking at it for a while, flipped through the bag and hooked a kunai with his fingers, and practiced the simulation of the ninja knife with a different grip direction than usual.
Maguro saw Yu throwing the shuriken and was tickling, and slowly moved his gaze to Kakashi's side, his tail on the ground, and calmly watched him play kunai there.
Yu soon realized that the two of them were not paying attention to her, but she didn't say anything, silently continuing to pull back the shuriken she had thrown out and continue throwing it.
-
It doesn't really take a lot of effort to throw a shuriken, but it takes some skill to keep the angle of the wrist joints when throwing.
Yu's right hand soon couldn't hold the shuriken.
She tried to keep throwing with her left hand, but most of them didn't even hit the stakes, and even lost a few.
She pulled it off the stake and set it aside, and ran to rummage through the wall and bushes in the distance.
"Hey! If you want to go to the toilet, go to school! Don't be out there! ”
Kakashi shouted at Yu, who was feeling the dark and indistinct surface of the trunk under the shade of the tree, looking for a shuriken nailed to it.
"Hey!" Yu resisted the urge to throw a shuriken he found in the bushes at Kakashi and hammered the tree.
The trunk of the tree does not move.
"I missed it, your shuriken may not be able to find it! I...... If I can't find it, I'll pay you a few new ones. ”
Yu was full of anger at first, but the more he spoke, the weaker his tone became, like a person who wanted to quibble after doing something wrong, but gradually found that he didn't pay attention to it.
"......" Kakashi was speechless for a moment, "If you can't find it, forget it, I still have it at home anyway, and these are just from the school." ”
He didn't take the opportunity to blackmail Yu.
- The kunai issued by the school is no different from the shuriken and ninja sold in the store, but the style is ordinary, and the handle of the kunai is also wrapped in a very ordinary thin rubber strip.
"That's not good, I'll look for it for a while, you continue!"
Yu waved at him and continued to dig through the other bushes.
She felt that her current self and Kakashi had nothing to do with it, and even if they became friends one day, this kind of thing of losing someone else's things was not a fact that could be erased with human favors.
At least she felt a little uncomfortable if she didn't care about it.
-
Kakashi resumed playing with kunai for a while before stopping, and after glancing at the panther not far away, he picked up the shuriken that had been pulled from the stake and the target earlier, and walked to the vicinity of Yu, who was still looking.
"Okay, okay, I've had enough time to practice many times." Kakashi didn't have any 'lost something' emotion, and pulled Yu's arm up without care, preventing him from continuing to look for him, "Hey, you...... What do you want to eat for lunch - let's say first, my father doesn't cook lunch on weekends. ”
He really didn't care if the shuriken was lost or not.
What he is more concerned about now is how to follow his father's words and naturally invite Yu to a meal.
At least not to let the guy see that he was apologizing for his previous lies.
"Well, then I'll go to the ninja shop and buy some new ones for you, and I just want to buy some too."
Yu reluctantly pinched the two shuriken he had found, and left the tree and the bushes next to it as Kakashi pulled him.
- "Lunch...... My brother prepared rice balls for me and Makoro, can you eat them? It should feel pretty ——......."
Yu said as he spoke, his face becoming solemn.
"......" Kakashi frowned, not knowing what was going on, but there was no birth to disturb Yu, who was lost in thought.
“……”
Yu recalls the scene before he came here in the morning.
She suddenly remembered that she didn't seem to have eaten in the morning.
- She had given Maguro all the breakfast she had brought out, and the bag of rice balls to be taken out was going to go to the school to eat some more......
But forgot to eat.
-
[…… I actually forgot to eat?? ]
