The Evil Uchiha Brat

"Kakashi, duel me today!"

Uchiha Obito clenched his fists, looking full of fighting spirit. He had been careless last time at the Ninja Academy, but today's him was vastly different from last year. He was sure to surprise Kakashi.

"I don't have time, and don't bother me. I'm on a mission right now."

Kakashi's expression was blank, but inwardly he wondered why Uchiha Yoichi was late today. Usually, by this time, the other party would have already been training for a while.

However, Kakashi's words didn't make Uchiha Obito give up. He listened carefully in class and trained hard in private, all for the sake of defeating Kakashi in front of Nohara Rin.

Thinking of Nohara Rin looking at him with admiration after he defeated Kakashi, Uchiha Obito's heart fluttered. At that time, he would finally earn Rin's adoration.

With this thought, Uchiha Obito subconsciously turned to look at Nohara Rin, only to find her gazing admiringly at Kakashi. This immediately filled him with jealousy towards Kakashi.

"Kakashi, let's duel! This is a challenge between men!"

"Stop bothering me. If you want to duel, do it after you become a ninja."

Kakashi remained unmoved. He'd rather duel Uchiha Yoichi than Obito. At least Uchiha Yoichi had an impressive record, capable of killing Jonin. As for Uchiha Obito, Although they were the same age, Kakashi didn't want to bully a kid from the Ninja Academy.

Crack!

A series of faint thunderclaps accompanied a figure wreathed in lightning. It flickered through the forest and appeared before Kakashi in just a few blinks.

"Kakashi."

The figure arrived first, the voice following.

Kakashi Hatake froze, then his heart filled with surprise. The person who had appeared before him was Uchiha Yoichi, and his speed made Kakashi's eyes widen in shock.

He had noticed the lightning flashing from the forest just moments ago, but it was too fast, much faster than him.

"I ran into some trouble today, and my mission has changed. Please help me hold off the person chasing me."

"Wait a minute. I won't help unless you explain clearly. Besides, changing a mission violates Konoha's commission regulations."

Kakashi flatly refused, then asked curiously, "This is Konoha, and you're an Uchiha. Who is chasing you?"

"Sannin Princess Tsunade."

Uchiha Yoichi had intended to make up a lie to trick Kakashi, but he forgot that he was being particularly honest right now.

"My apologies. Even if my father were here, I doubt he would intervene against Lady Tsunade."

After speaking, Kakashi immediately stepped aside, gesturing, and continued, "It seems today's sparring mission will have to be postponed until tomorrow. I'm heading back now."

"Kakashi, I told you not to ask questions, so don't ask."

This sentence delayed him a little. Uchiha Yoichi had originally wanted Kakashi to use his father, Hatake Sakumo's, name to attract Tsunade's attention, giving him time to escape further.

Who knew that Kakashi's question would cost him precious time.

Crack.

A faint flash of lightning, and the figure vanished from the spot.

Two seconds later, a figure suddenly appeared before Kakashi. Her beautiful face, heroic demeanor, and signature blonde hair, coupled with what Uchiha Yoichi had just said, allowed Kakashi to instantly recognize the person before him.

"Hey, what did that Uchiha brat say to you just now?"

"I am Kakashi Hatake, who accepted a sparring request from Uchiha Yoichi. Yoichi-kun just asked me to hold off Lady Tsunade, but I refused."

Facing the clearly angered Sannin, Kakashi answered truthfully, without any concealment.

"Sakumo's son? You're honest."

Tsunade glanced at the other two. One was another evil Uchiha brat, and the other was likely from the Ninja Academy. Judging by Nohara Rin's admiring gaze, Tsunade knew the young girl was a fan.

However, Tsunade didn't have the time to chat with Nohara Rin now. She moved her feet and instantly disappeared in the direction Uchiha Yoichi had fled.

Not being able to catch Uchiha Yoichi for a long time made Tsunade's anger burn even hotter. Initially, she hadn't wanted to use her full strength in the village.

She had only intended to ask Uchiha Yoichi a question, but upon seeing him, Tsunade was reminded of the memory of being beaten badly by Uchiha Yoichi, and her tone had become somewhat unpleasant.

But it was being verbally teased by that perverted brat later that truly made Tsunade angry.

A ninja's speed depended on chakra. Any Body Flicker Technique or rapid movement required chakra support. As long as one could adapt to the flow of chakra within their body, their speed would increase infinitely.

Seeing Uchiha Yoichi getting further and further away, Tsunade increased her chakra flow once more, instantly doubling her speed.

As the distance between them closed, Uchiha Yoichi felt danger approaching.

Regardless of why Tsunade was calling him, that single teasing remark made Uchiha Yoichi feel that a calm conversation between them was impossible. Moreover, he was currently under a time-limited ability, making any communication impossible.

He could only take a gamble!

Uchiha Yoichi quickly recalled, confirming that Tsunade didn't seem to possess sensory ninjutsu. He then took out several smoke bombs from his ninja tool bag.

He then increased his Body Flicker speed to its limit, abruptly turned, and threw the smoke bombs he was holding.

The next second, three more figures accompanied by lightning flashed out from the smoke, moving in different directions.

"Shadow Clones? Are you challenging me in a chakra battle, you evil Uchiha brat!"

Seeing this, Tsunade sneered. She quickly formed the Rat Hand Seal with her hands and also created two Shadow Clones. Together with herself, they pursued the three Uchiha Yoichi figures.

She wasn't afraid of her Shadow Clones being destroyed. If her Shadow Clones couldn't even deal with a brat, then she wouldn't be worthy of the title Sannin.

A few dozen seconds after Tsunade rapidly chased after him and left, the smoke slowly dispersed, and a person-sized rock 'poofed' as its transformation was undone.

Using the smoke to block her line of sight, preventing Tsunade from knowing what irrelevant thing had appeared here, while simultaneously using a Shadow Clone to attract her attention, it had actually succeeded.

"Fortunately, people who are in a hurry are easily fooled, but my chakra is almost gone—"

Before Uchiha Yoichi could finish his thoughts, the memories from the Shadow Clone were transmitted back.

So, he didn't linger in the same spot and immediately turned to leave.

A minute later, Tsunade returned to the same place along the original path, but now she couldn't find Uchiha Yoichi anymore.

Thinking that she had been tricked by a brat, and one from the Uchiha clan no less, Tsunade felt a surge of shame and anger.

"…Second Grandpa was right!"

Swish swish!

Two Anbu appeared beside Tsunade using the Body Flicker Technique, then respectfully said to her, "Lady Tsunade, the Hokage is looking for you!"

"Got it, got it. This old man calls everyone over for every little thing. Doesn't he have anything better to do!"

Tsunade said with annoyance. Without even guessing, she knew what her teacher wanted her for; making such a big fuss over a minor issue.
