Chapter 197: Feeling a Little Nostalgic
Hisoka was currently sitting inside a classroom in the shinobi academy, while Iruka told the graduates who will be in their team. She wasn't entirely sure why, but Iruka wanted to do this in another classroom than their usual one, but she decided to simply ignore that since it didn't seem to serve any purpose.
Hisoka's team was already announced and she couldn't help but be surprised when she found out that she knew both of her teammates. They were Karin and Sai, who were only supposed to appear in the second part of the anime. Well, it was Karin Uzumaki now, instead of just Karin.
Hisoka didn't need to think long to understand why both of them appeared here. Danzo was, apparently, dead, which surprised her greatly, but made her happy at the same time, so it made sense for Sai to join a normal team.
Karin being here also somewhat made sense since the Uzumaki clan has returned and she was part of it. Truth be told, except for her fangirling over Sasuke, Hisoka actually liked Karin's character quite a bit and after hearing that they were in the same team she wondered if something could happen between them. Moments later, however, she could only smile wryly at herself for thinking nonsense like that.
'Karin likes men, which means that me having a chance with her, is impossible.'
While Hisoka was still contemplating about her teammates, Iruka finished the team assignments.
"Very well, that was all from my side. Just wait here and your new jonin sensei will appear and pick you up. I wish you good luck in your future endeavors."
Iruka left the classroom under the cheering of his ex-students and the moment the door closed, a small package appeared in Iruka's hands and a new person appeared, squatting on the front table.
"Yes, yes, you passed the easiest part of your shinobi career. Congratulations."
Everybody in the room was dumbfounded when an unknown person suddenly appeared out of nowhere and started mocking them.
One of the people in the front row immediately stood up and pointed his finger at the unknown person.
" Who are you?! Why are you..."
*SPLAT*
"*Sigh* Although it has only been a year since the last time I used this old thing, it sure feels nostalgic. The name's Yuna, by the way. Oh, and only one question at a time, please."
An eerie silence covered the classroom before another person stood up and pointed his finger at Yuna in excitement.
"You are the legendary Cake Prankster that was terrorizing the teachers in one class above ours? That is so awesome. Can I... "
*SPLAT*
"Partially correct, since my little brother, Naruto, was involved as well."
The eyes of a few people in the room shone in worship when Yuna admitted that she was involved in the cake pranks. She did, after all, manage to hit a chunin with it and despite playing the same prank again and again no one ever found out how it was done or who did it.
Another person stood up and started speaking with excitement in his voice.
"Have you continued your legacy?"
The person that asked the question was cautiously looking around and breathed a sigh of relief when he wasn't hit by a cake.
"Haha, seems at least one person can follow the rules. As for your question: of course, I did. In fact, I even managed to get a hit on the Third Hokage."
This immediately caused an uproar in the room. The Third Hokage was, after all, a legendary character for quite a lot of people in Konoha, so a lot of people in the room were rather doubtful whether what Yuna just claimed was actually true or not.
After a while of whispered discussions, someone asked Yuna another question.
"You said that your name was Yuna, right? Are you..."
*SPLAT*
"Yes, I said that."
""""""...""""""
A somewhat awkward atmosphere covered the room after Yuna's answer, while quite a few people were looking at the person who asked the question just now like he was an idiot. Although Yuna was clearly messing with him, he definitely made it too easy for Yuna to do so, so he could only blame himself.
A short moment later, someone asked Yuna the question the previous person wanted to ask.
"Since your first name is the same as Hisoka Hyuga's sensei, are you her sensei?"
"Yes, I am Hisoka Hyuga's jonin sensei and I am here to pick her up. I assume you are Hisoka?"
After Yuna answered the question, she looked at the only person in the room that looked like a Hyuga and asked a question of her own.
"Yes, I am Hisoka Hyuga."
"Haha, good. Your face is as stiff as I heard it was. Oh well, it's not like anyone can hide anything from me, so it's fine. Just out of curiosity, have you ever puked due to experiencing spatial movement?"
Hisoka couldn't help but panic a little when Yuna called her face stiff instead of stoic since that somewhat implied that it couldn't show emotions instead of her simply not revealing any of her emotions. Although Hisoka thought that she was overthinking what Yuna said and that she just wanted to mess with her a little, Yuna's next sentence caused her to actually become worried about whether Yuna could see through her or not. Although she did want to become friends with Yuna, she had become rather used to people not being able to see her emotions, so she felt a little exposed by Yuna's statement. Yuna's last sentence, however, completely threw her off, but after a short moment, she managed to gather her thoughts and shook her head in denial.
"Hehe, would you like to?"
If Hisoka weren't seated right now, she would certainly take a few steps back to get away from Yuna's slightly unhinged smile.
"N-No?"
"Well, that's too bad for you, because you probably will."
Without allowing Hisoka to say anything else, Yuna disappeared from where she stood in a red and blue flash, reappeared in front of Hisoka, grabbed her shoulder, and disappeared again with another red and blue flash, this time while taking Hisoka with her.
The legend of the "Yellow Flash" was rather well known to pretty much everyone in Konoha, so seeing Yuna doing something that looked rather similar just with another color scheme immediately caused another uproar in the classroom, which confused the next jonin sensei that appeared in the room.
After hearing about the reason for the uproar, he couldn't help but chuckle a little. As a Jonin, he knew about Yuna and her tendencies to prank people. A "troublemaker" like Yuna would usually be scorned if she continued with her pranking despite becoming a high-ranking shinobi since this could genuinely risk the lives of her teammates, but Yuna knew very well when she could mess around and when not. This, combined with her versatile skill set and strong combat power resulted in her being well-liked in the ranks of Konoha's elite shinobi force.
"Anyway, I am Keki Itazura and I am here to pick up my genin. Are Yuna's cake victims alright? Do you need..."
*SPLAT*
An oppressive silence covered the classroom and moments later, the fresh genin started whispering with each other. Although Keki's ears weren't anything special, he was still a jonin, so he could at least understand a few words that were said.
"...two questions..."
"...forbidden..."
"...own fault..."
"...Cake Prankster..."
Keki Itazura had, naturally, no clue what was going on. He wiped away the cake in his face in a practiced manner and decided to simply ignore what just happened and continue with what he wanted to do. He already learned that that was usually the best approach when dealing with Yuna's shenanigans.
