Naruto: Getting Stronger by Drinking — Section 4

But what was going on now? Yuu had not even drawn his sword, and Asuma was completely unharmed.

"C-Could it be? G-Genjutsu?"

Tanaka Shuichi looked at Yuu with utter shock in his eyes.

There was only one explanation: the power of genjutsu.

But Yuu was only eight years old, and he possessed unparalleled talent in swordsmanship.

Could he now even trap an Elite Chunin like him with genjutsu?

But could anyone use genjutsu while drunk?!

If Yuu knew what Tanaka Shuichi was imagining, he would definitely burst out laughing, then drink another two cups.

That was not something like genjutsu. It was the fusion of swordsmanship and presence.

"I-I survived?"

Asuma opened his eyes, his entire body limp as he lay on the ground, staring at his hands in disbelief.

Just now, he swore that he had truly felt Yuu slash him.

That agonizing pain, that despair of death—there was no way he could have been mistaken.

But why...?

"Gulp—gulp—gulp—hah!"

Yuu held the bottle and drank deeply, letting out a satisfied breath.

"Ding! Detected that the host shocked the entire audience while drunk. Reward: Black Blade, Shusui!

Reward has been stored in the host's home."

The system's notification rang through Yuu's mind.

"A sword? That's good stuff. Shusui... that name sounds so familiar. What was it?"

Yuu pondered through bleary drunken eyes.

Whatever. Why think about something so troublesome? Isn't drinking better?

After thinking for no more than two seconds, Yuu stopped paying it any mind.

"Hey, you bastard, get lost already. I can't even drink with you sitting in front of me."

Yuu looked at Asuma, who was still slumped in front of him, and waved his hand in disgust.

"If you don't leave, I'll cut you down."

Hearing Yuu's words, Asuma's eyes filled with terror.

No one knew where he found the strength, but his limp body jolted as he scrambled and rolled back to his seat.

"The so-called Three Body Techniques..."

"Gulp—gulp—gulp—"

Tanaka Shuichi continued writing and drawing on the blackboard.

But no one had the heart to listen to the lesson anymore.

From time to time, everyone's gazes drifted toward that figure drinking freely.

The boys looked at him with fear and a trace of respect.

Some of the girls were afraid as well, but others gazed at him with affection.

There was no other reason. Although Yuu loved alcohol, he was simply far too handsome.

His black, tousled hair and narrow eyes looked somewhat unfocused from the alcohol.

Though he was still young, his perfect features had already made it impossible for those girls to look away.

Strangely enough, heavy drinkers usually had terrible complexions.

But Yuu only became more handsome the more he drank.

Yuu credited it all to the effects of the God of Wine System.

Still, Yuu did not care much about it. Looks were irrelevant. Instead of worrying about appearances, wouldn't it be better to drink another couple of cups?
