Uchiha Asuka's Big Picture

Land of Lightning, Kumogakure.

The instant Uchiha Asuka opened his eyes and sensed the killing intent beside him, he turned to look over and found a blonde, blue-eyed girl standing in the bedroom with a dark expression.

He had been in Kumogakure for four days already.

And for each of those four days, Samui had pulled this every morning.

She did not attack. She just stood there, releasing killing intent and making it impossible for him to sleep properly.

"Ugh! Don't come tomorrow. I'm afraid I won't be able to stop myself from making a move on you again."

Asuka let out a long sigh, then counted on his fingers. "Samui, that time you went to the bathroom without bringing any paper had nothing to do with me, right? How was I supposed to know you didn't bring paper when you went to the bathroom?"

"Shut up!" Samui barked, her face darkening at once.

"Fine, then the second thing—what does your failure to pass the Ryūchi Cave trial have to do with me?" Asuka held up one finger and wagged it from side to side.

"You can't decide I sabotaged you just because I'm a Ryūchi Cave contractor, can you? You should know that Ryūchi Cave doesn't care about the will of the Uchiha when it comes to talented ninja. Take the chance to reflect on yourself more. Ask yourself whether you're good enough."

Samui gripped her kunai tightly and stared fixedly at Asuka's Adam's apple.

"And the third thing!" Asuka raised three fingers and yawned. "Your brother He Siyi got what he deserved. Who told him to pretend to be a rogue ninja and steal the villagers' life savings?"

The moment he finished speaking, Samui, who had been standing in the middle of the room, suddenly lunged at him.
