Chapter 37: Friends
All eyes fell on Itachi Uchiha.
However, Uchiha Itachi ignored Sarutobi Nanami and looked at one of Hinata's team with a suspicious gaze.
It was a boy with black-rimmed glasses, and the only ninja he knew of among the three members of Hinata's team.
"Mallet" is the name of the ninja.
In his previous life, he was a ninja of "Root" and one of Danzo's most trusted subordinates, who died under Uchiha Itasu's Amaterasu on the eve of the Uchiha clan's annihilation.
Although his face must have been a little immature when he met in his previous life, Uchiha Itachi still recognized him at a glance.
In this life, Uchiha Itachi took the middle ninja exam two years earlier, but many things have changed unexpectedly.
First the dried persimmon ghost shark, then the mallet.
I just don't know if the result of this change is good or bad?
Uchiha Itachi frowned slightly, calculating in his heart.
"Mallet" held the black-rimmed glasses above the bridge of his nose with his hand, smiled and nodded at Itachi Uchiha, in response to his gaze.
。。。。。。。。
Seeing that Uchiha Itachi did not react, Sarutobi Nanami thought that Uchiha Itachi acquiesced to his actions.
He let out a cold snort of disdain from his nostrils and swaggered past Itachi's side.
The dried persimmon shark on the ground still had its eyes closed, seemingly unaware of the impending danger.
"He's my friend."
Just as Sarutobi Nanami raised the kunai in his hand, Uchiha Itachi finally spoke.
"Really? Are you sure this Kirist Shinobi is your friend? ”
There was not a trace of disappointment on Sarutobi's face, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, evoking a sinister smile.
"Nope."
Yamanaka was the first to hear the meaning of his words, and preemptively spoke up to defend Uchiha Itachi.
"I'm not asking you."
Sarutobi Nanami glared coldly at Yamanaka and turned to look at Uchiha Itachi.
"Itachi Uchiha. Let me ask you again, is this Kirist your friend? ”
There was silence all around, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and even time seemed to stand still.
"I said he was my friend."
Uchiha Itachi repeated faintly, retracting his thoughts from his distant previous life.
"I'm sorry to hear you say that."
Sarufei Nanami raised his head high and said arrogantly, obviously already seeing himself as the leader of the team that Konoha participated in the middle ninja exam this time.
Although he said this, there was no regret on his face, only a smug smile.
"In Konoha, colluding with ninjas from other villages is a serious crime. You'd better think through before answering. ”
He cleverly set up another set for Uchiha Itachi in his words.
At this time, the smile on his face grew stronger, as if he saw that Uchiha Itachi had jumped into his trap.
Next, he only needs to charge Uchiha Itachi with one crime, and unite the other six to kill Uchiha Itachi on the spot, and his task of this middle ninja exam will be successfully completed.
He was already deeply favored by Ape Fei Ri, as if he had seen a bright avenue waiting for him. The end of that avenue is the position of the Hokage.
To his surprise, Uchiha Itachi did not answer, nor did he justify, so he calmly walked past him and carried the unconscious dried persimmon oni shark back onto his back.
"What are you doing!"
Sarutobi Nanami stopped in front of Uchiha Itachi, and the smile on his face had completely disappeared, replaced by a cruel face.
"Get out of the way."
"As a ninja of Konoha but openly colluding with the mist ninja, you are betraying Konoha by you!"
Ape Fei Nanami scolded loudly.
He was answered by a flying leg from the bottom up.
The Uchiha Itachi's leg came in a hurry, and it didn't bring a little wind.
By the time Sarutobi Nanami reacted, he had already received a heavy blow to the abdomen.
He bent over in pain, watching Uchiha Itachi walk past him.
"Don't have a next time...
Uchiha Itachi's cold voice fell on Sarutobi Nanami's ears, carrying the breath of death.
"You bastard!"
Ape Fei Nanami got up from the ground holding his lower abdomen, wanting to make a move but not confident, so he could only keep signaling to the rest of the people.
However, to his great disappointment, no one made a move against Uchiha Itachi until it disappeared into the forest.
"You ... , what's wrong with you, have you forgotten the task given to you by your family before you set off? ”
He shouted angrily at the others.
They all turned their heads in unison, not looking at his face distorted with anger.
Only Hinata shrugged his shoulders blankly, indicating that he didn't understand at all.
It took a while for Sarutobi Nanami to recover from the humiliation.
"What mission are you talking about? How can I not understand at all? ”
Hinata waited for him to calm down completely before asking.
"The patriarch of the Hyuga clan didn't arrange a secret mission for you?"
"Nope. Just let me be safe. ”
"How is that possible!"
Ape Fei Nanami turned his head to look at the rest of the people, wanting to get a clear answer.
No one spoke up.
The performance he thought he thought was perfect just now obviously didn't get anyone's support.
"I'm leaving. I'm going to go crazy if I act with someone like that. ”
Inuzuka Hana, who had been watching coldly, finally couldn't help but speak.
Without waiting for her two teammates to respond, she turned straight away, and the two ninja dogs wagged their tails and followed her obediently.
"Flowers, wait for me..."
"Mallet" hurriedly shouted and strode after him.
"Deer friends, are you going to act with us?"
Hinata ignored the ape flying Nanami who was in front of him, smiling and waving at Nara Shikatomo.
"Let's go with Uchiha Itachi, he's carrying a wounded man on his back and can't fight, so if he runs into an enemy, he'll be in trouble...
Nara Shikayu glanced at the two teammates beside him and replied helplessly.
"That's great, let's go quickly, or we'll lose it."
Before he could finish speaking, Yamanaka slapped him heavily.
"Then be careful."
"You too, see you at the exit."
In just a few moments, Konoha and his party, who had just gotten together for a short time, left their own people, leaving Sarufei Nanami standing alone in a daze.
Since he was a child, he has admired the three generations of Hokage Ape Flying Sun Slash, and he deliberately imitates both his words and deeds and his fighting style.
In addition, he has been pampered by the ape flying sun since he was a child, and there are many opportunities to observe and learn from it up close.
Over the years, his way of acting and thinking has been deeply influenced by the ape flying sun.
When fighting, the first priority is always to save your own life. Other than that, everything doesn't matter, including the lives of teammates and missions.
