"Iruka-sensei, what are you and Naruto doing?!" Just then, a loud voice suddenly rang out behind them.
"Aaaah!" The sudden voice startled Iruka and Naruto, making both of them scream.
工ｴｴｪｪ(;╹⌓╹)ｪｪｴｴ工
At the same time, they wildly swung the kunai in their hands, trying to attack the source of the voice.
However, after attacking for ages, they realized there was nothing but air in front of them. There were no enemies at all.
A scare from behind.
And they had completely lost their composure.
Clearly.
Their nerves still needed work.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Seeing Naruto and Iruka panic, the voice rang out again, with a hint of teasing. "Are you idiots? Why are you attacking Kōki?!"
Hearing that familiar voice, Iruka and Naruto froze, then turned to look.
"Huh?! Qingwu?!" Both of them cried out in surprise when they saw who it was.
"Why is it you?!" Iruka's eyes widened, disbelief written across his face.
"You nearly fucking scared me to death!" Naruto pointed angrily at Qingwu,
and complained loudly, "I heard footsteps from so many people! I thought they were missing-nin like Mizuki, and that Iruka-sensei and I were done for. I never imagined it was you."
Qingwu shrugged.
He looked utterly innocent. "What footsteps?! That wasn't me... what are you talking about?!"
He thought to himself.
Let's give you another scare.
Hehe!
"What?! It wasn't you?!" Iruka had only just relaxed, but now his heart jumped again. "Oh no, there are other enemies."
"Those footsteps just now..."
"Were they Mizuki's Accomplice?!"
Naruto hurriedly drew his kunai too.
He braced himself for battle.
"Qingwu, be careful. They must be Mizuki's accomplices. Seven or eight chunin. Watch out..."
Qingwu was utterly speechless (ー_ー)!!.
These two thickheaded idiots. With an expert like me right beside them, they're still this terrified. Unbelievable.
