In Naruto: Drinking Makes Me Stronger — Chapter 33

But you were only reliable when you were slashing people!!!

"Y-you, don't move. You're swaying around—what if you cut the wrong spot?"

Yuu held Shusui and aimed twice, sounding somewhat dissatisfied.

"I-I'm not moving."

Obito was practically in tears.

You're the one moving, okay?

"Right here."

Sshhk!!!

Aah!!!

Obito let out a miserable scream.

"Uh... did I miss?"

"Why is there still no reward?"

Yuu watched Obito clutch the wound on his left arm and howl nonstop.

He muttered a few dissatisfied complaints.

Some ideas vaguely surfaced in his mind, but Yuu had drunk a little too much and simply could not grasp that flash of inspiration.

"Pah! What a waste!"

After confirming that no matter how he slashed Obito, there would be no reward.

Yuu complained at Obito, sheathed Shusui, and staggered away with Rin and Kurenai supporting him.

As for Obito, it was only a minor injury. A quick trip to the infirmary for bandaging would do.

It was just a little blood. At most, some skin and flesh had been scraped.

Only an idiot like Obito would scream so loudly every single time.

Otherwise, Yuu would not have needed to bring Kurenai along to set up a genjutsu.

Yuu had always been very measured with his strikes. Otherwise, he would have been called in for a talk long ago.

"Fine, it's nothing, then. As long as I don't keep getting slashed."

Obito, huddled in the corner, let out a long breath.

After this, it seemed his hard days had truly come to an end.

As for these injuries? They no longer mattered. With his constitution, he would recover completely in just a few days.

Konoha, Ninja Academy.

"Ahem, that concludes all of today's lessons."

Tanaka Shuichi spoke from the podium with great caution.

He was terrified of waking that sleeping figure.

"I-I actually thought Yuu had gotten better..."

Seeing the many places on Obito's body wrapped in bandages, Tanaka Shuichi shuddered all over.

He had truly gotten a little too carried away lately!!!

Ever since that practical test, Tanaka Shuichi had realized that Yuu did not seem to be as terrifying as he had imagined.

At the very least, he knew how to hold back.

Tanaka Shuichi had originally felt somewhat relieved and planned to normalize his interactions with Yuu.

At the very least, he had to let Yuu pass the Three Body Techniques exam and the earlier written exam.

He had even criticized Yuu a couple of times.

At the time, Tanaka Shuichi had secretly felt pleased, as if his formerly timid self had finally stood up!!!

But Obito's miserable state now made Tanaka Shuichi tremble with lingering fear whenever he thought about it!

Yuu not slashing him down—how was that because he had stood up?
