Naruto: Getting Stronger by Drinking - Part 16

After all, it was perfectly normal for a drunk person to say things no one could understand.

"Bastard! You're looking down on me!"

Obito glared at Yuu's utterly dismissive attitude, furious beyond measure.

What Obito found even harder to accept was that Yuu's body swayed slightly from his tipsiness.

Rin had actually let Yuu lean against her.

Obito's eyes turned red with rage.

"Uchiha Obito."

Tanaka Shuichi found Obito's name in the scorebook in his hand.

He wrote down... the words "failed"!

"For this round of testing, Uchiha Obito has failed."

Holding his pen, Tanaka Shuichi spoke calmly.

"Failed? Why?!!!"

Obito froze for a moment, then shouted loudly.

"So, what exactly did you learn during theory class?"

Tanaka Shuichi looked calmly at the dead last student in the class.

This arena test was unique to their class.

Because there was a genius like Yuu, whose strength clearly exceeded that of ordinary students, this test had been specially arranged.

Rather than a test of strength, this second test was more accurately a test of temperament.

Yuu's strength was simply beyond comparison with that of the other students.

Yet Uchiha Obito's current state clearly showed that he was about to challenge Yuu over some personal reason.

One had to know that, due to Yuu's special circumstances, he could very well accidentally kill a challenger.

A decision like Uchiha Obito's was not one a qualified ninja should make.

The most important thing for a ninja was completing missions!

Making an extremely disadvantageous move because of one's emotions could very easily cause a mission to fail.

Taking both of those factors into account, Uchiha Obito could naturally only receive a failing grade.

"Now then..."

"I get it. That guy's challenging me, right? Hahaha."

Before Tanaka Shuichi could finish speaking,

Yuu, who had only heard the first half of Kurenai and Rin's explanation, looked at them and burst into laughter.

"It's been so long since I chopped anyone up that my hands are getting itchy. Hm? What was your name again, you bastard?"

Yuu narrowed his eyes and sized up Uchiha Obito.

When Tanaka Shuichi saw that Yuu was already preparing to draw his blade, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

What exactly did you understand?!

I haven't even finished speaking!

Why are you already about to start chopping people up?!

Cold sweat broke out on Tanaka Shuichi's forehead as he hurriedly signaled to Rin and Kurenai, who were acting as Yuu's translators.

He hoped they could make Yuu understand that he was not actually asking him to chop anyone up!

"D-Damn you, you're looking down on me that much!"

Uchiha Obito had been the dead last in his clan ever since childhood.

That would have been one thing, since the Uchiha Clan was now Konoha's foremost great clan.

It was also a gathering place for geniuses.

But after Uchiha Obito entered the Ninja Academy, he had become the dead last there as well!
