Who is Faster

"Are you all deliberately isolating me? Uzuki Yugao and I are childhood sweethearts; she will definitely listen to my explanation." A trace of madness flashed across Gekko Hayate's face as he urged, "Let me in, Yugao will definitely forgive me."

"Gekko Hayate, that's enough." The voice of Uzuki Yugao drifted out from within the Cave.

Soon, two figures were seen walking out from inside.

"This time, it has nothing to do with me." Uchiha Qin Yu shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said, "He was the one shouting about wanting to explain to you. Go solve it yourself."

Watching Uchiha Qin Yu, the culprit, turn around and leave with such flair, Uzuki Yugao was stunned for a moment, her willow brows furrowing tightly.

"Uchiha Qin Yu, can you stay for a moment?"

"I should stay?" Uchiha Qin Yu looked at Uzuki Cangwu with suspicion.

He instantly caught the scent of what was going on.

"Yugao, why are you keeping him? Let's go to the grass over there; I want to explain things to you alone." Gekko Hayate hurriedly reached out to grab Uzuki Yugao.

However, before he could touch her, Uzuki Yugao dodged him.

"Gekko Hayate, please do not act recklessly in front of my partner, otherwise I will sever our relationship as ordinary friends." Uzuki Yugao suddenly spoke up.

As soon as these words were uttered, everyone present froze, their gazes shifting to Uchiha Qin Yu.

Uchiha Qin Yu felt instantly helpless.

He finally understood what it meant to be caught in the crossfire while lying down.

"Yugao, what are you saying? Who is your partner?" Gekko Hayate grew anxious.

"It is Uchiha Qin Yu. My father has already agreed to me dating Uchiha Qin Yu, so please do not come to harass us in the future," Uzuki Yugao said coldly.

"Him?" Gekko Hayate was stunned, saying, "That's impossible. I don't believe you; you're only saying this to anger me."

"You and Uchiha Qin Yu don't even know each other."

Among the younger generation, they had always been indoctrinated with the idea that the Uchiha Clan was the root of rebellion.

To avoid suspicion, many people would actively avoid members of the Uchiha Clan.

"Gekko Hayate, that's enough." A trace of disgust appeared on Uzuki Yugao's face.

In her eyes, the Gekko Hayate of the past was a sensible genius with talent and a sense of responsibility.

She never imagined that she would encounter such a situation the first time she stepped out of the village.

"No, it's not enough. Give me a chance to explain," Gekko Hayate pleaded urgently.

"Simp!" Uchiha Qin Yu rolled his eyes helplessly and said, "If she finishes listening to your explanation, will you stop causing trouble?"

"Yes, as soon as Yugao finishes listening to my explanation, I will leave obediently," Gekko Hayate said with a stubborn expression.

"Alright then, watch closely." Uchiha Qin Yu wrapped his arm around Uzuki Yugao's waist and, with a sudden surge of force from his right hand, pulled her directly into his embrace.

Without a moment's hesitation, under the stunned gazes of everyone present, he leaned in and kissed her.

It was a light kiss.

However, it still caused a roar in Uzuki Yugao's mind, leaving her completely blank.

"You, what are you doing?" Gekko Hayate suddenly snapped back to reality.

This was the first kiss he had been eyeing covetously for seven or eight years and had never been able to obtain.

Now, it had been stolen by Uchiha Qin Yu in the blink of an eye; how could he possibly accept this?

"Isn't this the explanation?" Uchiha Qin Yu spread his hands and said, "Give up now."

"If there is nothing else, I am going back to rest."

Watching Uchiha Qin Yu turn and leave with an indifferent expression after the forced kiss, Gekko Hayate's expression twisted instantly.

Without a moment's hesitation, he reached behind his waist, drew a kunai, and lunged at Uchiha Qin Yu's back.

The proximity of the attack caused everyone's expressions to change drastically.

They never expected that Gekko Hayate would be crazy enough to go to such lengths.

However, facing all of this, Uchiha Qin Yu acted as if he were unaware.

Puchi!

The kunai instantly pierced into Uchiha Qin Yu's body, immediately causing a puff of white smoke to rise, which left the crazed Gekko Hayate stunned for a moment.

"Idiot, I'm behind you." Uchiha Qin Yu's right hand transformed into a hand blade, chopping directly toward Gekko Hayate's neck.

Gekko Hayate's expression changed drastically, but in this situation, he had no time to dodge.

He could only wait for the attack to land.

Whoosh!

A flash of golden light suddenly appeared.

Before anyone could react, an unexpected figure appeared in front of Uchiha Qin Yu, seizing the initiative.

They reached out and clamped onto Uchiha Qin Yu's wrist.

The sudden appearance of the figure caused everyone's pupils to contract sharply.

The golden hair made Qin Yu purse his lips and smile: "Minato Namikaze, you've been hiding for so long, I thought you weren't going to come out."

"It's the Yellow Flash Minato Namikaze, he actually made it here!"

"Only space-time ninjutsu could allow someone to cross two battlefields in such a short time and arrive here."

"Tch, you might as well say that only Minato Namikaze's speed could intercept Qin Yu's attack, otherwise that kid Gekko Hayate would definitely have suffered."

"Hmph, that brat, if he doesn't suffer a little, no one can swallow their anger, but let's forget it for now."

Facing Gekko Hayate's behavior of abandoning his comrades on the battlefield, many people felt dissatisfied.

Especially his willful and reckless actions just now, which had drawn hostility from many.

This is a battlefield, not a place for acting on impulse or getting caught up in personal affairs.

"I actually didn't want to show up either. After discovering that the Cloud Ninja's offensive was repelled by you, I thought about returning to the Land of Earth, but unfortunately, if I hadn't acted just now, this kid would probably have suffered," Minato Namikaze said with a bitter smile.

"Lord Minato, it was him! He was the one who toyed with me in the forest earlier, which caused Yugao to misunderstand me. You must stand up for me!" Gekko Hayate said urgently.

Qin Yu smiled and shook his head: "Minato, you saw it too. To make him quiet down, he really needs to suffer a little."

"Besides, you can't stop me from teaching someone a lesson."

Bang!

A puff of white smoke erupted from Qin Yu's body, and the next moment, he vanished into thin air.

"Is that the Shadow Clone Technique?" Minato Namikaze's expression changed.

Without time to think, he hurriedly turned around to look.

At the same time, he flicked his right hand, and a Flying Thunder God Kunai marked with the Flying Thunder God Seal flew out of his hand instantly.

Qin Yu, who had just appeared behind Gekko Hayate, wore a smile on his face as his figure flickered, shifting half an inch away like a ghost.

The Flying Thunder God Kunai grazed past him, and the attack missed completely.

"He's going to appear!" someone exclaimed.

Everyone's nerves tightened, their eyes filled with urgency.

Flying Thunder God Technique!

Before Minato Namikaze could even make a move, he vanished into thin air the next moment.

When he reappeared, he was already above the Flying Thunder God Kunai.

He reached out directly to grab Qin Yu's shoulder.

"I've got you," a smile appeared on Minato Namikaze's face.

It had been a long time since he encountered someone who dared to challenge his speed.

Qin Yu's actions now undoubtedly stirred his competitive spirit.

"Is that so?" Qin Yu smiled and said, "However, you're being too naive."

The soft voice suddenly spread out.

The next moment, crackling arcs of lightning bloomed on Qin Yu's body.

Under the ravaging of the violent lightning, Qin Yu, who was about to be caught, vanished into thin air.

Reappearing, he was already behind Gekko Hayate.

His right hand, transformed into a hand blade, struck down at the back of his neck with the speed of a thunderbolt.
