Konoha, Ninja Academy.
"Ahem, all of today's classes are finished."
On the podium, Tanaka Shuichi spoke somewhat cautiously.
Deeply afraid of waking up that sleeping figure.
"I... I actually thought Yuyu had changed for the better..."
Looking at Obito, with many places all over his body bandaged with gauze, Tanaka Shuichi shuddered all over.
A while ago, he really got a bit carried away!!!
Since that practical combat test, Tanaka Shuichi found that Yuyu didn't seem as terrifying as he imagined.
At least he struck with restraint.
Originally, Tanaka Shuichi was relieved and planned to normalize his interactions with Yuyu.
At least he wanted to make Yuyu take the Three Basic Techniques exam and the previous written exam.
He even scolded Yuyu a couple of times once.
At that time, Tanaka Shuichi felt a secret delight for a while, feeling that he, who had always been timid, had finally stood up!!!
But now, Obito's miserable state made Tanaka Shuichi tremble with fear!
Yuyu didn't cut him down—where did he stand up?
That was just luck off the charts!
Yuyu is a little devil!
Absolutely do not provoke him.
However, regarding today's mission, Tanaka Shuichi felt the corner of his mouth twitching.
"Um, Kurenai, Rin, can you two wake Yuyu up?"
After the whole class had left, Tanaka Shuichi spoke very politely to Kurenai and Rin.
"Ah, okay Sensei."
Kurenai and Rin also felt it was a bit funny seeing Tanaka Shuichi's appearance.
In their view, how could Yuyu be that terrifying? He was clearly such a nice person.
"Yuyu (-kun)."
Kurenai and Rin used their small hands to gently shake Yuyu.
"Zzz—snore—"
Responding to Kurenai and Rin were Yuyu's snores.
Today, for the sake of getting good equipment from a slash, Yuyu had really drunk quite a lot.
So he slept exceptionally soundly.
"Sensei, Yuyu is too tired today. Is there something important?"
Kurenai and Rin called him a couple of times and found that Yuyu was sleeping exceptionally deeply.
They couldn't bear to disturb Yuyu's sleep, so they asked softly.
Hearing this, Tanaka Shuichi's mouth twitched.
Too tired? Today Yuyu did nothing but drink and sleep.
Oh, he also cornered Obito and cut him once.
Does cutting Obito make one tired?
"Lord Hokage wants to see Yuyu."
If it were an ordinary matter, Tanaka Shuichi wouldn't be so persistent.
But Lord Hokage wanted to see Yuyu. Having accepted the mission, he really had no choice.
"Lord... Lord Hokage?!"
Kurenai and Rin exclaimed.
"Yu... Yuyu-kun won't be in trouble, right?"
"Sensei, Yuyu didn't mean it; he accidentally scraped Obito. I can testify."
Kurenai and Rin instantly became anxious, thinking Lord Hokage knew about Yuyu cutting Obito these past two days.
"No, it's not about that matter. It should be a good thing."
Tanaka Shuichi looked at Kurenai and Rin's anxious expressions and waved his hand.
The reason he was so certain was that Tanaka Shuichi knew Lord Hokage seemed to have been paying attention to Yuyu all along.
Even when his colleague was cut into severe injury by Yuyu, nothing happened to Yuyu.
Is there any need to ask who could do such a thing?
Even cutting a teacher into severe injury didn't get Yuyu in trouble.
Obito only had some skin scraped; would Lord Hokage trouble Yuyu over such a small matter?
"Then..."
Seeing Tanaka Shuichi guarantee repeatedly, Kurenai and Rin looked at each other.
"Heave-ho—"
Watching Kurenai and Rin skillfully drape Yuyu's arms over their shoulders, Tanaka Shuichi's eye twitched.
Judging from the proficiency of their movements, Kurenai and Rin hadn't done this for the first time.
So, you two didn't even try to wake Yuyu up just now!!!
Tanaka Shuichi was somewhat helpless. If it were other students, he could criticize them severely.
But with Kurenai and Rin, because of their relationship with Yuyu, he didn't dare.
"Let's go, Lord Hokage is in the Principal's office."
Tanaka Shuichi said, leading the way in front.
The Hokage is not only the village's supreme leader but also the Honorary Principal of the Ninja Academy.
Just like that, Kurenai and Rin carried Yuyu and followed Tanaka Shuichi to the Principal's office.
"Knock—knock—"
"Come in."
Hearing the voice from the Principal's office, Kurenai and Rin couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
This was the Hokage, Konoha Village's supreme leader.
They had only seen him during the opening ceremony.
"Click—"
"Lord Hokage, Yuyu is here."
Tanaka Shuichi walked in the door and spoke respectfully to the figure sitting at the Principal's desk.
"Mmm, Yuyu is here?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was processing documents, revealed a kindly smile.
He looked up at Yuyu.
And then... his expression froze on his face.
"Yuyu! This brat!!!"
