She said she'd only eat a little, but ended up eating three bento boxes by herself.
"Oh right, why did you bring food?" Rin's mind raced as she changed the subject.
"I made food but didn't have time to eat it, so I brought it," Han Guang replied, shrugging.
"They're back."
Nudging Han Guang, Rin reminded him.
In the distance, three figures were approaching one after another.
The difference was that Obito and Kakashi in front were dejected, while Minato Namikaze behind them looked calm.
Clearly, the bell-grabbing mission had failed.
"Kakashi, it's all your fault! If you had stalled them a bit longer, I could have grabbed it," Obito grumbled as he walked, not forgetting to shift the blame.
"Idiot!" Kakashi spat out the word, exhausted.
From beginning to end, he was the only one trying to grab the bells. What had Obito done?
The only thing the other guy did was charge mindlessly at Teacher Minato when he was out of stamina.
Without even trying to hide it.
It would be a miracle if they had succeeded.
Look at Han Guang and Nohara Rin, they knew their limits.
Knowing they weren't strong enough, they'd been drawing on rocks all morning.
"Sigh, I almost had it," Obito said, shaking off Kakashi and walking over to Han Guang and Rin, sighing.
"It's okay, failure is the mother of success!" Han Guang comforted him.
"Keep trying next time!" Rin also offered encouragement.
Comforted by his teammates, Obito immediately perked up.
See?
These were good teammates, unlike that dead-eyed Kakashi.
In the training area.
Minato Namikaze announced the mission failure.
Then, as if by magic, a bento box appeared in his hand.
"Huh? Teacher Minato brought food too?" Rin muttered softly.
No wonder.
No wonder the teacher and Han Guang were late; they both brought their own breakfast?
"Since the mission failed, you four will only get one bento box for lunch today!"
Minato Namikaze swept his gaze over them, his expression serious.
"As for who eats this bento box, you decide amongst yourselves!"
With that, he placed the bento box on a rock.
POW!!!
Using the Body Flicker Technique, he vanished without a trace.
At this moment, the atmosphere between the four was delicate.
Obito first looked at the bento box, swallowed hard, and then shifted his gaze to his teammates.
Of course, he wasn't looking at Kakashi, but wavering between Han Guang and Rin.
After all, the three of them were the 'real' teammates.
Kakashi's stamina was so depleted that he merely glanced at the bento box before his stomach rumbled loudly.
As for Han Guang and Rin?
They were in perfect sync.
"I give up this bento box!"
"I give up too!"
As the two of them spoke, a warm current surged through Obito's heart.
These were good teammates!
It wasn't just Obito; even Kakashi showed a hint of surprise under his mask when he heard them give up.
"Because I'm so exhausted, they're willingly giving it to me?" Kakashi was slightly moved.
On a tree not far away.
Minato Namikaze was hidden amongst the branches, a smile on his face.
"I really didn't expect this."
"I thought this team collaboration had failed, but there was an unexpected gain."
"Giving up the lunchbox is also a manifestation of team spirit..."
Minato Namikaze continued to watch, wanting to see who would end up eating the only lunchbox.
One lunchbox, yet two people wanted to eat it. How could this be divided?
It seemed that because Han Guang and Rin had given up, Obito and Kakashi both looked at the two of them.
As if seeking their opinion.
Rin couldn't think of a solution.
She could only look at Han Guang.
And so.
Han Guang suddenly realized that all three of his teammates were staring at him?
"Ahem."
Feeling unnerved by their stares, Han Guang could only clear his throat and step forward.
"It's actually very simple, you can each have one."
Each have one?
But there was only one here.
Just as Rin was about to correct him.
She saw--
Han Guang reached into his chest and pulled out a lunchbox.
Nohara Rin: __
Obito: "You hid the lunchbox?"
Kakashi: "Heh!"
Minato Namikaze in the tree: "..."
Sometimes, explanations are very necessary.
Just like now.
"I originally prepared breakfast for five people."
"Our team has four people, plus Teacher Minato!"
"But Rin ate three servings by herself just now, so only one is left."
As Han Guang explained, Nohara Rin's face turned bright red, wishing she could use Earth Style Jutsu to burrow into the ground.
Unfortunately, she couldn't use Earth Style Jutsu.
Of course, there was also good news.
Obito and Kakashi each got one.
The food dispute was perfectly resolved.
"This Han Guang, he really is full of surprises."
Minato Namikaze, in the tree, covered his forehead, not knowing how to describe this dead last student.
Punish Han Guang for breaking the rules?
But the problem was, the other party had brought food for everyone.
However, Nohara Rin had eaten more than half of it.
In this light, Han Guang seemed to have a lot of team spirit.
Besides, he hadn't said beforehand that bringing extra food was not allowed.
