The Duo
Minato Namikaze, who understood the kid's personality perfectly, could only sigh helplessly; "I don't have time to talk to you about this right now."
He really had absolutely no way to deal with the kid, absolutely none.
Unfortunately, Yang Xing seemed unwilling to let it go, and wouldn't let his sight be ignored, asking, "Then at least tell me, which squad is she in?"
Minato Namikaze was helpless and speechless. Faced with Yang Xing's truly serious gaze, he could only weakly reply, "Sanada Sarutobi's squad, number 2230."
"Sarutobi? That sounds familiar."
"That's not it." Minato Namikaze laughed, a knowing smile playing on his lips. "Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage's name. You should know that, right?"
"Oh, I was wondering why you looked so familiar. I didn't realize you were the Jonin teacher from the Third Hokage's clan."
"Yes, the Third Hokage's son is in this squad. Yang Xing, although I don't approve of you, I won't stop you. But don't mess with the Third Hokage's son. The Lord Third is the honor of the village. Even if he's just a relative, don't act recklessly. Hey, are you even listening?"
"Minato-sensei. I'll be away for the next few days with some important matters, so don't miss me or let anyone come looking for me, or I'll get really angry."
Minato Namikaze wanted to offer a reminder, but before he knew it, the kid was already at the window. After he finished speaking, the kid jumped out without a second thought, leaving behind a sentence that gave Minato Namikaze a real headache.
"This kid... I was originally thinking of asking him for help in coming up with a solution, but forget it. This brat is really a handful. He's so young and all he thinks about is picking up girls. Come to think of it, this kid does resemble one of those guys."
On the main street of Konoha.
The two walked slowly, their joy at completing the mission making the two young people very excited.
The joy of being praised by the Fourth Hokage, in particular, made the boys look highly motivated.
"Ugh, this mission is so simple, it's no fun at all." Asuma clenched his fist, his tone loud. "How about something more challenging, like killing some Rock Ninja?"
"Asuma, the Fourth Hokage and your father are both troubled by the situation in Rock Ninja. Don't say such irresponsible things." Kurenai Yuhi frowned slightly, speaking very seriously.
This made Asuma roll his eyes, clearly annoyed, and he said, "I was just saying."
"Talking about it won't work either."
"Tch, what is it?" Asuma's face darkened; he didn't want to deal with the clueless Kurenai Yuhi. But the moment he turned his head, he saw someone leaping towards him at lightning speed, and his expression froze for a moment. "Hmm, right, isn't that the brat from before? Yes, the one you met at the beginning?"
Pointing to a spot not far away, Kurenai Yuhi followed his finger and spotted Yang Xing rushing towards them at an astonishing speed.
"That?"
Seeing Yang Xing staring at her from not far away, she leaped and landed in front of her.
Kurenai Yuhi's face was full of confusion. Before she could ask Yang Xing why he had followed her, she saw the little boy in front of her kneel down and, surprisingly, put on a very affectionate look, grab her little hand.
"I fell in love with you at first sight, be my wife!" Holding Kurenai Yuhi's small, tender hand tightly, Yang Xing said very seriously and decisively.
Kurenai Yuhi: "..."
Asuma: "..."
"Hey, what nonsense are you spouting, you bastard?" Asuma was the first to get angry, his face turning slightly red with rage.
Yang Xing was annoyed by the student's shout. She didn't let go of Kurenai Yuhi's hand, turning to glare at him. "What's it to you? I didn't tell you."
"You bastard, looks like you think I won't dare hit you."
"Asuma, stop! He's the Fourth Hokage's disciple. Even if it's you, if you hit him recklessly, your father won't let you off easily." The moment Kurenai Yuhi withdrew her hand, seeing Asuma about to attack, she immediately stopped him with a grim expression.
"The Fourth Hokage's disciple." Upon hearing this, Asuma lowered his fist, which had been ready to kill him, and said with an air of "I'll spare you this time," "Kid, I'll let you off today. Um, Red, you better say something quickly, or he'll get any ideas."
"Huh? Why?" Kurenai Yuhi was stunned, looking quite bewildered.
"Hey, you wouldn't..." Asuma turned around angrily, pointed at Yang Xing, and said after holding his breath, "You're interested in a kid like that."
"No, I just think this little brother is quite interesting." Kurenai Yuhi paused, then realized what she meant, turned around, and couldn't help but pat Yang Xing's head, smiling as she said, "I'm sorry, I can't be your wife right now, and usually, it's not about being a wife, it's about being a girlfriend's little brother first."
"Isn't it all the same? Girlfriends will eventually become wives," Yang Xing said seriously.
"That seems to be true." Kurenai Yuhi paused for a moment, a little taken aback by Yang Xing's words, but still said happily, "I didn't expect you to be so smart."
Unable to stand it any longer, Asuma turned and left. "Ah, forget it, forget it. You can continue playing house with these little brats. I'm going to do something big, something big that will make you all understand that I, Asuma, am a very, very powerful ninja."
"Asuma, Lord Third, we'll be home early today, so don't wander off. Asuma?"
Seeing Asuma turn and leave, not even responding to her calls, Kurenai Yuhi frowned slightly, her face turning somber. Without much thought, she chased after him, carefully following a short distance behind Asuma.
Tch, the way the young lady looked at Asuma was different.
It seems that things are not as simple as they appear.
Moreover, taking action is proving somewhat difficult.
However, Yang Xing would not give up; once he made up his mind, he would never take a break.
His third wife was Kurenai Yuhi; that was a done deal.
"Hey, wait a minute, wife, no, Sister Kurenai Yuhi, where are you going?"
On the main street of Konoha, three people walked in a strange manner, one in front and two behind.
Asuma was leading the way, and after passing several streets, the two behind him still wouldn't move, which annoyed him. He turned around, frowned, and shouted, "Hey, why are you two following me?"
"If I don't keep an eye on you, Asuma will definitely do some strange things," Kurenai Yuhi said seriously, her brows furrowed.
The girl's face was very cute.
Unfortunately, Asuma was completely oblivious to Kurenai Yuhi's concern, scoffing and saying, "What I did wasn't something strange. It was something big that could shake the entire Konoha."
"For example, letting all the animals in the village's pet shops run free."
Asuma: "..."
Asuma glared at Kurenai Yuhi and said loudly, "That's to save them."
"Then, a few days ago, during a mission, who was it that caused the farmland under their responsibility to be trampled by wild boars, attracting a whole herd of them?"
"That's right, I didn't know there would be so many wild boars, and that they would come in groups."
"So, Asuma only does strange things."
"Say what you will, but don't follow me anymore. A woman like you won't be able to bring out my full potential with me. Go back home." Asuma glared at Kurenai Yuhi a few times, then turned to Yang Xing and said, "And kid, how long are you planning to stay with us? You're not on our team, are you?"
"I wasn't with you," Yang Xing said casually. "I was with this lady."
Damn, if Kurenai Yuhi hadn't been coming over, he wouldn't have bothered with this guy.
