Hikaru Hokage

So...there is nothing like what my mother said...

The dragon's pond is like a tiger's den.

It's just that having more beautiful sisters does make people a little less confident.

But isn’t that a good thing?

Ino likes to get along with beautiful people, and Hino-nii being surrounded by so many beautiful sisters, doesn't it also prove that his charm is indeed unique?

but……

If you're in love, wouldn't it be bad to just move into someone else's home?

Under normal circumstances, it is better to try to get in real contact with each other first, get to know each other, and then come together naturally... right?

After eliminating most of the uneasiness in her heart, Ino suddenly hid her previous infatuation and blindness towards Hino Hikaru, and became as reserved and shy as a girl.

Of course, she is also full of excitement and expectations for the future.

Such a handsome big brother, you can't find another one in the whole village, right?

Don't let others, especially that guy Sakura, get in first...

"Eh? Sakura..."

But it's a coincidence that just when Ino was talking about Sakura, Haruno Sakura actually appeared in the alley not far away.

And he happened to be standing next to Hikaru Hino.

Seeing this, Ino immediately became vigilant.

"What are they doing...?"

As Ino subconsciously narrowed her eyes, Sakura, who was not far away, suddenly closed her eyes and raised her head, and the distance between her and Hino Hikaru seemed to be shortening.

It looks like they are about to pick or kiss together?

Realizing this, Ino subconsciously widened his eyes, filled with disbelief and an inner monologue of "impossible".

-

-

"Although I'm not very good at this illusion, I can teach you another...my unique illusion."

Hino Hikaru took the ninjutsu scroll from Sakura's hand, and after taking a cursory look at the principles of the Naraku no Jutsu, he quickly used his own mental control and dream control abilities to simulate similar functions.

"Special illusion..."

Sakura blinked, thinking that this Hino-sensei was indeed very powerful.

"Close your eyes and relax."

"Yes."

Sakura obediently closed her eyes in front of Hino Hikaru.

Wait, closing your eyes doesn't mean...

Because she felt the man's warm breath right in front of her, Sakura, who closed her eyes, couldn't help but start thinking wildly. She even quietly raised her head and subconsciously raised her thin cherry-colored lips a little higher.

However, Hino Hikaru did not notice, or in other words, did not care about this small detail of Sakura.

Apart from helping the girl in front of him learn ninjutsu, he only wanted to try out the touch of her... wide forehead.

They don't have the astringent thoughts of girls.

"Relax and then...go in"

Hino Hikaru stretched out his finger and tapped Sakura's forehead.

Well……

It feels really good.

but……

Hino Hikaru suddenly felt that touching Sakura's forehead with his fingers like this seemed a bit like NTR's original Sasuke...feeling?

Well, thinking of this, Hino Hikaru couldn't help but put his finger on the forehead of the girl who was already standing and entering the dream to feel it.

No, Sakura in this world doesn't seem to be as cold towards Sasuke as in the original work, so it shouldn't count.

-

"Sakura, this guy...ran away quietly again."

It's so abominable that Hino-nii is allowed to do something as intimate as touching his forehead.

However, the fact that no further "bad things" happened made Ino, who was watching not far away, feel a little relieved.

Fortunately, it was just a touch on the forehead.

and also……

Brother Hino actually admires Sakura's broad forehead as much as he does. He is really so gentle.

After seeing that nothing bad happened to Hino Hikari and Sakura in front of him as he imagined, Ino hurriedly stepped forward.

"Brother Hino, what are Sakura doing...?"

Seeing Sakura standing motionless with her eyes closed, not even aware of her arrival, Ino couldn't help but feel curious and slightly worried, regardless of the idea of ​​inquiring about the situation.

"I asked her to practice illusions in her dreams."

Hino Hikaru explained while handing the scroll recording the Narakumi no Jutsu to Ino.

He had already noticed that Ino was there.

But...why did Konan bring Ino home in the morning?

Hino Hikaru was also a little curious.

"Practice in dreams..."

Ino subconsciously took the scroll.

"Sakura, are you going to start learning genjutsu?"

what……

It should be for the Chunin Exam.

The girl then remembered that she was a ninja who had just graduated, and that the chuunin exam was approaching soon.

"Should I also learn new ninjutsu to prepare for the exam?"

Putting away Sakura's ninjutsu scroll, Ino secretly looked at Hino Hikari and thought quietly in her heart.

Going to ask Asuma-sensei for advice?

No, Sakura bypassed Kakashi-sensei and went directly to Hino-san, so I should too...

Ino no longer looked at him secretly, but directly looked at the handsome brother in front of him.

"Is there something on my face?"

Noticing the gaze that seemed to have some heat, Hino Hikaru also looked at the blond girl with a single ponytail in front of him.

Ino was probably caring about Sakura.

It just so happened that it would take a while for Sakura to enter the dream space to learn ninjutsu. Ino was watching here, which made it easier for her to explain the situation to others.

"without me……"

However, just when Ino was about to ask Hino Hikaru to teach her ninjutsu, there was suddenly a violent fighting sound not far away, and then a man with a puppet on his back and a strange face painted on his face flew out heavily. He fell into the open space between the girl and Hino Hikaru.

The sudden accident caused Hino Hikaru to subconsciously pull Sakura, who was still in her dream, almost into his arms.

After Ino was briefly surprised, she turned her attention to Sakura and Hino Hikari.

hateful……

Sakura is so lucky.

Seeing Sakura being hugged protectively by Hino Hikaru, Ino was so jealous that her teeth itched.

So, what happened? Why did someone suddenly fly over?

Ino glanced reproachfully at the strange guy lying on the ground, and then looked in the direction of another group of people.

Chapter 41 The Caged Bird

"What the hell are you guys doing?"

Although the tattooed man who was suddenly knocked to his side and fell heavily to the ground looked very vicious, when he thought that this was Konoha and that Hino Hikaru was still around, Ino instantly moved towards that man with confidence. The visitor in the rising smoke cursed angrily.

"Don't you know that private fighting in the streets of Konoha Village is illegal?"

"But he was the one who made the first move."

The watermelon-headed boy in green tight-fitting clothes flashed in front of everyone like a gust of wind.

"You guy! How dare you deliberately pretend to be weak and lie to me..."

The man who had just fallen to the ground also stood up at this time. It seemed that he was not seriously injured, but the anger on his face was visible to the naked eye, and he untied the puppet bandage on his back with murderous intent.

"I hate insidious guys like you the most."

Kankuro wanted to find an opportunity to test the genin level of Konoha Village in advance, and then he happened to see this watermelon head... which he didn't like.

Moreover, Kankuro also has a shortcoming: the more he encounters weak and submissive people, the more he wants to bully them.

But who knew that this guy who had always acted timid and fearful in front of him was actually pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.

As soon as he walked up and stretched out his fist, the opponent suddenly disappeared and then kicked him with a "Konoha Great Cyclone" that made him unable to stand up.

"No, I'm not sinister at all. It's obvious that you want to fight me, so I have to resist."

The ninja in green tights is naturally Xiao Li, and he is also a little itchy and wants to test the strength of others.

Then he happened to meet the ninja of Sunagakure Village who came specifically to find trouble.

It can only be said that as the Chunin Exams are approaching, everyone has basically the same idea.

"You guys, it was just a sneak attack just now. Don't think you can still hurt me alive this time."

Bandages were flying, and the puppet controlled by Kankuro's chakra thread was about to reveal its original appearance.

"Are you going to show your true skills?"

Faced with this situation, Xiao Li also made a starting move for a physical duel.

"Stop, Kankuro."

However, just when the two of them were at war with each other and were about to start a real fight, Gaara, who was carrying a sand gourd on his back, suddenly appeared on a nearby eaves, hanging upside down and observing the ninjas appearing around him.

Two female ninjas are nothing to worry about, but...

Why is that guy here?

After Gaara saw the presence of Hino Hikaru, he couldn't help but frowned in fear.

Recalling the scene where he met each other in the basement when he went to check on Rasa's body that day, Gaara felt a little palpitated.

Among the ninjas of Konoha, this guy should be considered one of the strongest ones.

In a place like this, bullying the ninjas of Konoha under the eyes of the other party...

It's a bit too contemptuous of the other party.

"I... Gaara..."

Kankuro looked at Gaara who suddenly appeared nearby with some surprise.

At the same time, the movement of untying the bandage on the puppet stopped.

This monster brother didn’t know when he came here...

"Wait, Li..."

On the other side, Hyuga Neji and Tiantian, who came here after Xiao Li, also stopped Xiao Li from taking action.

"Ino is right, this is Konoha Street, and you will be arrested if you fight in private."
