Chapter 24 Hinata VS Tenten, Tenten's shock: How could this be!
Especially the description, which made Lin Mo instantly realize that it was exactly what the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles looked like.
"That Naruto Uzumaki guy."
In an instant, Lin Mo knew who had done it.
It must be Naruto Uzumaki.
But what is this guy doing going to the bookstore in the middle of the night to look through books?
Naruto Uzumaki isn't the kind of person who can sit still and concentrate on reading.
"Could it be?"
Suddenly, Lin Mo remembered what he had said to Naruto Uzumaki yesterday.
So, if Naruto Uzumaki went to look up information, was he looking for information about the Fourth Hokage and the Land of Whirlpools?
Thinking this to himself, Lin Mo unknowingly walked into Ichiraku Ramen.
Good morning, Lin Mo.
Seeing Lin Mo walk in, the person who was typing greeted him with a smile, "What are you planning to have for breakfast today?"
"One tonkotsu ramen, please."
Lin Mo sat down as usual and said, "Add another serving of meat."
"Okay."
Hearing Lin Mo's words, he nodded and said, "Just a moment."
Lin Mo didn't have to wait long before a steaming bowl of ramen was served.
Lin Mo immediately began to taste it.
But just as I was tasting it, I heard people at the next table talking.
"By the way, why are there so many more timber security guards patrolling the area today?"
"It seems a monster appeared last night, causing quite a commotion in the bookstore. With graduation from ninja academy approaching, wouldn't you like to be on the safe side?"
"Yeah, I've heard about it too. Apparently, it's a very tall turtle, almost like it's become a spirit? Anyway, the rumors are all very mysterious. How could a turtle go to a bookstore in the middle of the night to steal books? That's too studious."
The constant chatter left Lin Mo speechless.
It seems that Naruto Uzumaki caused quite a stir yesterday.
After finishing his ramen, Lin Mo returned to the jar shop.
By noon, Lin Mo realized that Hyuga Hiashi hadn't brought Hyuga Hinata and Hyuga Hanabi to open the can.
"That's strange."
For a moment, Lin Mo fell into deep thought.
When the head of the Hyuga clan learned of the jar's incredible power, how could he not bring people to open it?
In his view, there should be a steady stream of Hyuga clan members coming to open the can.
Even if they didn't want to be exposed, they should have come secretly.
But that's not the case.
Did he guess wrong?
He could understand why Hiashi Hyuga didn't come, since the jar had already been opened.
However, it was unexpected that Hyuga Hanabi and Hyuga Hinata didn't come because they still had extra jars to open.
"If you don't have time, are you perhaps in class?"
Suddenly, Lin Mo realized that Hinata was still in school, so she probably didn't have time to open the can.
If I'm not mistaken, Hinata should come when the ninja academy lets out this afternoon.
As Lin Mo was thinking this.
the other side.
Ninja Academy.
On the outdoor plaza.
Iruka is leading the class he is in charge of in a battle training session.
The sun was shining brightly, and the students gathered in the sunlight, standing neatly in the center of the square, waiting for Iruka's instructions.
Iruka stood at the front, holding a list in his hand, his voice loud and powerful: "Because graduation is approaching, this afternoon we will be conducting a weapons combat training exercise to improve everyone's combat skills. For this purpose, I have invited a senior student who is one year ahead of you and has already graduated, Tenten."
"Now, I'm going to call roll. Students whose names are called, please come up to the stage and prepare for the match."
Upon hearing Iruka's words, the students present immediately tensed up.
But more than anything, I felt excited.
Because everyone knows this is an opportunity to showcase their abilities.
In particular, Tian Tian, a senior who graduated a year ahead of them, made many people eager to try their luck and leave a good impression on her.
Iruka glanced around, his gaze settling on a girl. He nodded slightly and said, "Hinata Hyuga, please come up to the stage and prepare for your match."
One is from the Hyuga clan, and the other is Tenten, who has already graduated. Both are quite strong and can fight in the first match.
Upon hearing Iruka's words, Hinata immediately looked at Tenten, who smiled and nodded in greeting.
She knows Hinata, and although they are not in the same class at school, they play together after class.
Even though she graduated before Hinata, it didn't affect her relationship with Hinata.
Sometimes, she would also come to the school as a teaching assistant.
I happened to be invited by Professor Iruka today.
Hinata took a deep breath and walked towards the battle area in the center of the plaza where Tenten was.
"If it's Hinata, then Hinata is definitely going to win. After all, she's from the Hyuga clan, and her father is the head of the Hyuga clan."
"Not necessarily. Senior Tiantian is a year ahead of us and has already graduated. She's participated in ninja missions, so she's definitely more skilled."
"You're overthinking it. A newly graduated ninja can only take on some ordinary missions in the village."
"Hehe, you guys don't know, Hinata and Tenten-senpai are very close. When Tenten-senpai hadn't graduated yet, I often saw them playing together after class. Maybe Tenten-senpai would just let Hinata win."
"But Tenten-senpai herself is not weak either. She is famous for her precise throwing techniques, and Hinata may not be able to withstand them."
"So Hinata will definitely activate her Byakugan. I'm so excited! I've never seen a Byakugan battle before."
Seeing Hinata Hyuga and Tenten step onto the stage, the students present immediately lit up, eagerly anticipating the match.
Iruka, seeing the two of them standing still, nodded: "Ready? Let's begin!"
"Whoosh!"
No sooner had Iruka finished speaking than Tenten took action.
She swiftly pulled a gleaming shuriken from her pouch, her eyes sharp, and threw it at Hinata.
Although she was a year older than Hinata and graduated before Hinata, Tenten didn't give in at all.
Because she knew that the person standing in front of her was the young lady of the Hyuga clan!
Their practical skills are definitely not those of an ordinary student.
Not to mention, the other party even rolled their eyes!
With a "whoosh," the shuriken drew a silver arc in the air, heading straight for Hinata.
Hinata's eyes narrowed, and without hesitation, she pulled out a kunai to retaliate swiftly.
"when!"
Hinata Hyuga's movements were swift and precise; her kunai drew a graceful arc in the air, easily deflecting Tenten's shuriken.
Then, Hinata suddenly charged forward, her kunai gleaming coldly in her hand, pointing directly at Tenten.
"Good timing!"
Seeing Hinata rushing towards her, Tenten was excited and quickly drew a short sword from her waist to meet Hinata's attack.
"Clang! Clang!"
In an instant, their weapons clashed in mid-air, producing a crisp metallic sound.
The students in the square held their breath, watching the exciting duel with bated breath.
"Bang!"
The next second, in an instant, Hinata's kunai, with incredible power and precision, easily cut and shattered Tenten's short sword.
"Snap!"
The originally sturdy short sword seemed to become incredibly fragile in front of Hinata's kunai, instantly breaking into two pieces.
"How could that be!"
Seeing her dagger cut so easily, Tiantian exclaimed in surprise, "This was custom-made for me!"
Her personal dagger was forged from the finest ores and some rare materials, and was originally meant to stay with her forever.
It was created by her parents at great expense.
How could it be so easily shattered by a single kunai?
She understands that the young lady of the Hyuga clan has weapons, and those weapons are better than hers.
But a simple kunai shattered her weapon; that's just too exaggerated.
At this moment, Tian Tian's face showed surprise as she looked at the broken dagger in her hand, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Not only was Tian Tian shocked, but the other students who witnessed it were also astonished.
"No way, Senior Tian's weapon was actually broken."
"Tenten's family owns a ninja tool shop. Tenten is very spoiled, and many of the ninja tools are beyond the reach of ordinary ninjas. Tenten has shown off quite a bit."
