Chapter 18 Sasuke's Craving
Chapter 18 Sasuke's Craving
Look at that familiar guy, hands in his pockets, not saying a word, trying to look cool.
And that familiar Uchiha fire fan clan crest.
Who else could be stopping Akali and Hinata at this moment but Sasuke?
Hinata found it very strange, as she and Sasuke usually didn't have much interaction.
Hinata asked politely, "Sasuke, is there something you need?"
"..."
Hearing Hinata's question, Sasuke did not answer, but silently looked at Akali beside Hinata.
This makes the meaning very clear!
Sasuke came to stop people today not because of Hinata, but because of Akali!
Upon seeing this, Akali's face, which had been beaming just a second ago, turned gloomy the next!
Damn it, she's in such a hurry to get close to Hinata, what's this stinky man doing out here?
Since Sasuke was so oblivious to her good time, Akali naturally didn't have a friendly attitude.
Akali released Hinata's hand and took a step forward:
"Hinata is asking you a question, didn't you hear me?"
"If you don't need your ears, you can donate them to someone who does!"
"Forehead……"
Sasuke's cool expression faltered when faced with Akali's aggressive approach from the start.
All these years, despite his handsome looks, Sasuke has never encountered a girl as impolite as Akali.
In his mind, since he had shown that he was only interested in Akali, Hinata should have left and handed the place over to them.
But clearly, neither Hinata nor Akali are people who buy into his approach.
So Sasuke was in a bit of a limbo at this point.
In the past, he would have turned around and left immediately, but unfortunately, this time Sasuke needed someone's help.
After a brief standoff, Sasuke was the first to lower his proud head.
"Excuse me, Hinata, I have something to discuss with Akali. Could you please excuse me for a moment?"
Sasuke spoke politely to Hinata.
[Ding! Hinata's emotional value +99!]
Hinata was somewhat surprised. How could Sasuke, who was so arrogant and looked down on everyone, be so polite to her?
Of course, Hinata also remembered why Sasuke was so polite.
She glanced at Akali in surprise, wondering what kind of magic her friend possessed.
At the same time, since Sasuke has said so, Hinata has no choice but to give him face.
"Um, Akali, I'll be leaving for a bit?" Hinata said tentatively.
“No need, I have nothing to hide,” Akali quickly shook her head.
Hinata has left now. What if she changes her mind about the hot spring when she comes back?
Akali looked at Sasuke: "Whatever it is, let's say it here!"
"What, you're still not satisfied after losing the day before yesterday? You want to fight again?"
"Of course not!" Sasuke shook his head: "I was completely convinced of my defeat in the battle the day before yesterday."
Sasuke's face was still a little pale, as if he was recalling the helplessness of his crushing defeat.
It's clear that Akali doesn't understand Sasuke's behavior.
If it wasn't the battle from the day before yesterday, then why did Sasuke seek her out? It couldn't be to compensate for the damage to the Uchiha clan's territory, could it?
Then she would have something to say: Sasuke released the Great Fireball, not her.
As for the Uchiha clan appearing in her photos?
That's hilarious. The Uchiha clan isn't Visual China; they're not going to chase after you and demand copyright fees.
Akali became increasingly confused and simply said, "Sasuke, you're a man, so just say what's on your mind!"
"Alright, then I'll just say it!" At Akali's insistence, Sasuke finally spoke his mind.
He stared intently at Akali and asked very seriously:
“Akali, I’ve investigated you. You’re not someone who started as a ninja in this generation. Your deceased parents, and even your ancestors for two generations, were all ninjas.”
"However, your father is at most a Special Jonin, and your mother is only a Chunin, and a medical ninja at that."
"In terms of family background, you are better than Naruto and others whose families have no one who has been a ninja, but the difference is only slight."
"So I want to know, why are you so strong?"
Why Akali is so strong, and where did her final move come from? These are questions Sasuke has been pondering for the past two days.
He is proud, but not brainless.
In the original work, Sasuke broke down in his defenses because of Naruto's growing strength, because Sasuke had always considered Naruto to be weak.
Akali never gave Sasuke the feeling of being weak, so even when he broke through her defenses, he only managed to awaken his Sharingan, but he still couldn't defeat Akali in that one blow.
After suffering a complete defeat, Sasuke calmed down.
Sasuke's purpose in asking Akali these questions is quite simple!
He wants to become stronger, and he wants to learn!
However, after hearing Sasuke's words, before Akali could react, Hinata frowned, and her usually gentle and docile face showed displeasure.
“Uchiha Sasuke!” Hinata said coldly, “Although the Uchiha clan is now in decline, it used to be a great clan that was on par with, or even surpassed, the Hyuga clan.”
"As the future head of the Uchiha clan, don't you think you're being incredibly rude?"
"The secret to a ninja's growth is a taboo no matter where it is!"
"If this were a question from an even earlier era, you would be ready for a life-or-death duel!"
After all, there are too many selfish and self-serving people among the ninjas, and their interactions are often like a dark forest.
If you don't know what the other party is up to, whether it's good or bad for you, there's a 50% chance you'll benefit and a 50% chance you'll be harmed.
If that's the case, why gamble with a 50% probability instead of striking first?
Sasuke, of course, understood this principle, and he knew that his problem was excessive.
Seeing Hinata speak clearly and without any fear when they look at each other, showing no trace of her former shyness and introversion, but instead displaying her sharp edge, Sasuke was even more shocked and incredulous.
Sasuke's emotional state has appeared several times in Akali's system panel.
Even when Hinata lectured him like that, Sasuke didn't back down. Instead, he gritted his teeth and stared at Akali.
He is an Avenger; if there is any chance or possibility to become stronger, he should abandon everything and seize it!
"you……"
Seeing Sasuke's nonchalant attitude, Hinata wrinkled her nose, clearly annoyed.
But Akali quickly stopped her.
"I'll do it, I'll do it!"
As if her anger had been redirected, Akali's annoyance at being disturbed dissipated considerably.
Because she had already figured out Sasuke's purpose in coming!
Akali looked at Sasuke with a strange gaze and asked in a melodious tone:
"You're asking me this question because you want to know my secrets so you can become stronger, is that right?"
