Naruto Emperor Wushuang

Chapter 22 Begins!

After showing up, Hinata seemed very nervous, she lowered her head, breathing rapidly, and kept rubbing the corners of her clothes with her slender fingers.

Seeing the girl's shy and charming appearance, Naruto's smile slowly spread from the corner of his mouth.

"Hinata, peeking at others is not a good habit!"

"No, I..." Because she was so shy, Hinata didn't realize that Naruto was joking, she raised her head in a panic, and wanted to explain, but when she saw Naruto smiling and watching When she was there, she hurriedly lowered her head again.

"I didn't know Naruto was back, so..."

The voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end it became even weaker. Even though Naruto had good hearing, he still couldn't hear it clearly.

"Did you also practice here Hinata during this time?" Naruto asked again.

"En!" Responding softly, Hinata finally plucked up the courage to raise her head. At this moment, her pretty face was already shrouded in rosy clouds, and she was almost charming. She asked Naruto the doubts in her heart.

"But why did Naruto know it was me?" It might not be difficult to detect someone behind the tree, but Naruto was able to accurately name the person hiding, which made Hinata feel puzzled, after all, he didn't roll his eyes, Can't see through.

"Of course I know!" It seems that Naruto is determined to tease Hinata today. He walked up to the girl in a few steps, leaned out, approached the girl's side face, and took a deeply exaggerated breath. , and then said jokingly: "Because Hinata's smell is very special."

This behavior is extremely frivolous, like a playboy.

"Smell?" Hinata has never seen such a battle before, she was taken aback for a moment, and then when she realized the meaning of the words and saw Naruto so close to her, her pretty face flushed. Flushed and slender, his body was wobbly, his eyes seemed to be drawing circles, and he looked like he might faint at any time.

"No, the joke is too far!"

Seeing this, Naruto secretly said something was wrong, and quickly changed the subject.

"By the way, Hinata, do you come to practice so early every day?"

This sentence is meaningless, but it doesn't matter, after all, it exists only to divert the topic.

"En!" Sure enough, the naive Hinata-chan was immediately distracted.

Seeing that Hinata's emotions finally calmed down a little bit, Naruto secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Although he knew beforehand that Hinata was thin-skinned, he didn't expect it to be so thin-skinned. He was almost ashamed just making a joke. Gotta pass out.

"Fortunately, I was smart enough to change the subject successfully, otherwise, the Hyuga tribe would not let me go!" I thought in my heart, but my mouth was full of praise, "Hinata really worked hard!"

"En!" Hinata seemed to have suddenly thought of something unhappy, her face quickly turned from flushing to gloomy, and she didn't even care about being shy.

Seeing this, Naruto was puzzled for a while, but soon he figured out the key point.Hinata must have encountered difficulties in cultivation again.

Naruto knew very well that although this Hinata was the eldest daughter of the Hyuga family, due to her weak character, she was always stage-frightened in battles, which made her stand in front of her father, the patriarch of the Hyuga family, Hinata Hyuzu. The position in the heart is not very high.

Seeing her like this today, she must have been criticized again.

Thinking so, Naruto pondered for a moment, walked to a clean stone and sat down, patted the seat beside him, and said to Hinata with a smile.

"Would you mind telling me about your business?"

Hinata also hesitated for a long time before she slowly came to sit down beside Naruto, holding her knees with her hands, showing that she was still nervous.

After a long time, she finally spoke slowly. "Naruto, am I useless?"

"Have you encountered any difficulties in cultivation?"

Naruto also stared at Hinata with some distress. On the girl, he seemed to see his past self.

Naruto once worked tirelessly and tried every means to gain the approval of others, but the people around him always regarded him as a monster. In the end, he had to use pranks to gain others' attention.

And Hinata, obviously worked harder than anyone else, trying hard to gain the approval of those around her, especially her father, but because of her inherently weak personality, she was still unable to achieve this dream.

After hearing Naruto's words, Hinata first showed doubts, but immediately nodded sadly.

"In the last mission, I was the one who held everyone back. Although the mission was successfully completed in the end, but..."

As he said that, tears gradually appeared in the girl's beautiful eyes, and the pitiful look that was about to cry made people feel pity. He decided to enlighten the girl, because he still had a good impression of this weak and strong girl. of.

"I want to know what you think, Hinata." Under Hinata's puzzled eyes, Naruto continued: "Do you hate ninjas?"

"No." Hinata quickly denied, "Although I don't like it, I definitely don't hate ninjas. I also want... I also want my father to touch my head and praise me, but, but..."

"Maybe I really don't have talent." The girl hugged her knees and buried her head between her arms, her frail shoulders trembling slightly, like an abandoned kitten, very pitiful.

"No talent? I don't think so." Naruto looked serious and said solemnly: "In my opinion, Hinata is actually a genius."

"Really?" Hearing this, Hinata raised her head, wiped the tears on her cheeks with her sleeve, and stared deeply at Naruto with a look of disbelief.

She thought it was just Naruto comforting her. After all, the word "genius" was completely insulated from her since she was a child. In the eyes of others, her strength and talent were not even as good as her five-year-old sister, Hanabi Hinata.

However, Naruto was keenly aware of the hidden expectation in the girl's eyes, smiled slightly at her, and continued to speak.

"of course it's true."

"Perhaps in the eyes of others, Hinata's character is very weak, even Hinata yourself thinks so, but I think this is not weakness, this is gentleness, and under this gentleness, there is also a secret that is no better than anyone else's. Inferior strength."

"Soft on the outside and strong on the inside, isn't this the profound meaning of [Soft Fist]? So in my opinion, Hinata is actually the best candidate for practicing [Soft Fist]. No one is more suitable than you."

Hinata was stunned, she had never heard someone comment on herself like this, and this person happened to be the one she cared about, so she couldn't help asking herself in her heart.

"Really? Am I really a genius at practicing [Soft Fist] like Naruto said?"

Although he didn't say anything, Naruto easily guessed what she was thinking when he saw the girl's expression.

"If you don't believe it, Hinata, practice with me in the future, and then you will know whether the facts are as I said."

"Practice together... Ah!" Hinata was stunned for a moment, but then seemed to suddenly think of something, let out an exclamation, and quickly jumped aside.

Only then did she realize that she and Naruto were so close that they could almost be said to be sitting side by side.

"With Naruto...with me..."

The more I thought about it, the more Hinata felt her face was on fire, and there seemed to be light smoke coming out of her head, her consciousness became more and more blurred, and finally... passed out gorgeously. Before she passed out, she seemed to have heard Naruto's voice sound.

"Hey, Hinata... Hinata..."

But when Naruto saw that Hinata finally passed out, he couldn't help but stroked his forehead with a helpless expression.

"Hey, let me say, don't be so shy, don't you just practice together? It's no big deal."

Thinking so, Naruto helped Hinata to sit beside a big tree, he couldn't just send her back like this, in that case the Hinata family would not let him go...

After a period of time, Hinata practiced with Naruto, but at the beginning, she couldn't even talk calmly, let alone practice, but later, when her attention was gradually devoted to cultivation, she became more and more It's more natural.

And because she was with Naruto, she practiced more focused and the effect was better.

However, it is worth mentioning that the Hinata family did not respond to the fact that Hinata often came to practice with Naruto, as if they didn't know at all, or they didn't care at all.

Of course, this may also be because the senior management of the Hyuga family wanted to tie Naruto, the [Nine Tails Jinchuriki], to Hinata's boat through Hinata, the eldest daughter of the clan with little potential.

In the days that followed, Naruto's life was very simple. Except for the daily tasks, the rest of the time was to practice with Hinata. The time passed quietly, until one day, the peaceful life finally came to an end...

※※※

On this day, the seventh class was about to return after completing the task. Suddenly, a loud and clear eagle cry attracted their attention.

"ah--!"

The four looked up and saw a special-looking hawk hovering over the leaves.

This is Naruto's dedicated messenger eagle, used to summon all Jonin who are still in the village!

"Looks like it's about to start!" Thinking silently in his heart, Kakashi said to the three Narutos: "Everyone, let's go here first, and I'll submit the mission report later."

Saying that, without waiting for the Naruto three to react, they just dodge and leave.

Staring at the place where Kakashi left, Naruto thought silently in his heart: "Is it finally here... Chunin Exam!"

The same situation is still happening in several other places... Not long after, all the jonin who are still in the village have gathered in the Naruto Chamber of Secrets.

"I didn't call you here for anything else..." After the desk table, Sandai Hokage took off his pipe with a solemn expression, "Look at my expression, you will know..."

"Ah...it's about this time..." Kakashi looked very unmotivated, "Have you notified other countries?"

"They've arrived." The one who answered him was the ninja with a toothpick mouth - Shiranui Genma!

"When will it start?" Morino Ibiki asked.

"A week later..."

"Ah! It's so fast..." All the jounin were amazed.

"Okay..." Sandai took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled, "Now I announce...we will be on July 7st in seven days..."

"The Chunin Selection Exam will be held!"
