In Naruto: Drinking Makes Me Stronger Chapter 37

Yuu looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi displeasedly and demanded an explanation.

"Forget it, forget it. Why get angry with a little drunkard?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Yuu helplessly.

He felt utterly helpless inside as well.

The most outstanding genius of Konoha's younger generation was actually this brat!

Ah, if only Yuu didn't drink...

After calming himself, Hiruzen Sarutobi patiently introduced himself to Yuu again.

"So you're the Third Hokage."

Hearing Yuu's words, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately felt gratified.

This brat finally understood the greatness of being Hokage, right?

But Yuu's next sentence nearly pissed him to death.

"The one who uses a crystal ball to peek into the women's bath?"

"Pfft!!!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi nearly bit his tongue.

"Who the hell told Yuu that nonsense?!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly felt terrible all over.

How did Yuu find out about something so private, especially something involving the Hokage?!

"Y-Yuu, who told you that?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's mouth twitched as he asked.

"I think... when I was buying alcohol at the tavern last time, I heard some white-haired guy... say it?"

Yuu tilted his head and answered uncertainly.

"Jiraiya!!!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi nearly ground his teeth to pieces.

That damn disciple of his actually dared to spread nonsense everywhere!

"Ahem, Yuu, that guy was talking nonsense. As the Third Hokage, how could I possibly do something like that?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi coughed twice and explained.

"Let's not talk about that. Can I ask you a few questions?"

Seeing that Yuu was about to say something else, Hiruzen Sarutobi hurriedly cut him off.

If this went on, Hiruzen Sarutobi feared his heart would not be able to take it.

"Mm, go ahead."

Yuu wore an expression that said he was doing Hiruzen Sarutobi a favor, leaving him somewhat helpless.

"Do you love this village?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked, looking at Yuu expectantly.

"Of course!"

Yuu answered with absolute certainty.

There was alcohol and meat here, and he could even cut people down. How could he not love it?

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled in satisfaction.

As they said, wine revealed the truth. And the words of a child after drinking were even more trustworthy.

"Um, Yuu, there's something the village needs your help with."

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the slightly swaying Yuu, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

But he still revealed the reason he had summoned Yuu this time.

"The Ch-Chunin Exams?"

After Hiruzen Sarutobi finished speaking, Yuu blinked.

"Yes, Yuu, let me tell you..."
