Capítulo 4: Chapter 4: Hinata is a Good Girl
Naruto: "First of all, I want to apologize. Yesterday, I was a bit groggy, thought I was dreaming... I'm really sorry."
Naruto bowed ninety degrees as he spoke.
Hinata's face turned red, blinked her eyes.
Does Naruto think it was a dream?
So does Naruto think he dreamed about me and then confessed to me?
Then does this confession count?
Hinata felt her head spinning.
She didn't know how to respond.
Naruto: "I hope you can forgive me, but... I really like you, Hinata."
Blushing...
Confessed to again.
Regardless of whether the previous one counts or not, this one should count, right?
Her heart pounded, Hinata had lost the ability to answer.
Naruto: "Hinata?"
After a while without hearing a response, Naruto finally lifted his head to look at her.
By this time, there were quite a few people around.
Hinata's face was red, so adorable.
Naruto: "Um... Besides this, there's another thing, let's talk somewhere else."
As he spoke, he grabbed Hinata's hand and ran towards the small woods next to the school...
Is Naruto holding my hand?
Heart racing.
Happiness came too suddenly, Hinata found herself unprepared.
When they entered the woods and there was no one around.
Naruto whispered, "Hinata, can I ask you something?"
Hinata answered quietly, "What is it?"
Naruto: "Um... I want to ask, do you know how much a replication scroll costs?"
A replication scroll?
Why would he bring up a replication scroll?
But Hinata tried hard to remember.
In her memory, she did see it before: "Around five or six thousand ryo... the smaller ones seem to be over ten thousand ryo."
This price... is quite expensive!
Naruto: "So... Hinata, can you get a smaller replication scroll?"
Ah! He must have exhausted all other options and didn't want to give up this opportunity.
But... something over ten thousand ryo...
For Naruto now, it's already a big favor.
Hinata: "Naruto-kun needs a replication scroll? Sure, I'll check at home, and if I have one, I'll give it to you tomorrow."
Naruto took a deep breath, "Thank you very much."
"And also, for special reasons, this matter cannot be told to others."
Hinata nodded again in agreement.
Before leaving, Naruto glanced around.
Hope there's no one lurking around here...
That's all he could do; the rest would be up to fate.
The two returned to the classroom.
Hinata: "Naruto-kun, good luck on the exam tomorrow!"
Naruto: "Yeah!"
The written exam might be fine... but the Shadow Clone Technique would definitely fail... sad...
But every cloud has a silver lining. If he hadn't failed the exam, Mizuki wouldn't have let him steal the Forbidden Jutsu Scroll.
Back to their seats.
The matter of the replication scroll would have to wait for tomorrow's outcome.
Time ticked away.
The first exam was the written test, covering various subjects.
There were decoding basic ciphers, wilderness survival, surveillance and counter-surveillance, significant world history, types of ninja tools, their usage, and effects, etc.
Many subjects, but all theoretical knowledge.
Hmm... according to what's in his head, Naruto estimated he should just barely pass.
The first day passed in distributing the papers, taking the exam, and collecting the papers.
After school, Hinata hesitated whether to leave with Naruto.
But... leaving together with a boy like this... she had never done it before... her face flushed with embarrassment.
Maybe... it's better not to wait...
As Hinata was about to leave.
Naruto: "Hinata? Are you waiting for me?"
"Boom!" Hinata's face was about to explode from embarrassment.
It's too embarrassing to be caught in this situation.
What to do? What to do? What to do?
Hinata: "A-Ah... No..."
Naruto: "Oh? Not waiting? See you tomorrow then, because of my health condition, I'm staying at Iruka-sensei's house today, bye."
Health condition! Could it be Naruto-kun's health isn't well yet?
Hinata, in her anxious state, forgot about her shyness and nervously asked, "Is Naruto-kun's health not well yet?"
Naruto: "It's fine now, it's just that Iruka-sensei is not very reassured about me being alone at home, afraid that I might faint again suddenly, so I'm staying at Iruka-sensei's house before the exam."
It's alright... it's alright...
Hinata breathed a sigh of relief.
Blushing, she replied, "Then I'll leave first, see you."
Naruto: "Yeah, see you."
Hinata took a few steps forward, then suddenly turned back, "I found Naruto-kun changed a bit, but he's more confident, more handsome."
Then she ran away as if flying.
This scene, seen by Iruka-sensei, who had been single for over twenty years, instantly received a hundred thousand points of damage.
"Iruka wants to take Naruto home?"
When Naruto and Iruka left the school, they ran into Mizuki.
Iruka greeted Mizuki, "Oh, it's Mizuki-sensei, yeah."
Mizuki smiled warmly, giving a very trustworthy impression.
Naruto also greeted him.
Mizuki: "Naruto, you have another exam tomorrow, right? Then, Naruto, you have to do your best!"
Naruto: "Yeah, I will."
The three passed by each other.
Mizuki, oh Mizuki, whether you're a good person or a bad person, it doesn't matter to me.
But... if you plot against me, don't blame me.
In the previous life, after leaving the orphanage, he experienced a lot.
He picked up trash, even stole.
He almost got kidnapped by human traffickers, or almost got beaten to a pulp to help those heartless people make money by begging, you could say he had rich experiences.
Because of this, he understands how precious life is.
It took him a great effort to survive until today and he decided to continue living tenaciously.
Wait... if he came to this world, and went to Zhaoshuyuan bookstore, maybe in that world he had already been conned to death.
So, in order not to lose this hard-won life, he must strive to live on.
Iruka: "What does Naruto want to eat today?"
Naruto: "Does Iruka-sensei want to treat?"
Iruka: "Ah... but don't make me broke."
Naruto: "Then let's have three large bowls of Tsunemiramen!"
Iruka: "...You're not holding back, are you?"
Iruka had long seen Naruto's appetite.
Iruka: "I really wonder where all that food goes... do you want two more bowls?"
Naruto smiled and
didn't say anything, "Okay! Then I won't be polite."
His response was so straightforward that Iruka somewhat regretted asking that question.
Once again, they arrived at Iruka-sensei's house, once again tried more than once to communicate with the Nine-Tails, but still no response.
Could it be that the Nine-Tails is sleeping?
Heh, this joke isn't funny at all...
In the original world's development... Naruto seemed to have met the Nine-Tails for the first time after meeting Jiraiya...
That was when Jiraiya was teaching Naruto the art of communication.
In order to force out the Nine-Tails, Jiraiya pushed Naruto off a cliff.
At the critical moment between life and death, Naruto's consciousness entered the space where the Nine-Tails was sealed, also the first time he met the Nine-Tails.
Does he have to encounter a life-threatening situation?
Shaking his head, he shook off the thought of jumping off a cliff.
He would absolutely never do such a thing.
Naruto: "The ninja arts exam is tomorrow... I hope everything goes smoothly."
Whether he can stand firm in this world depends on what happens after the exam.
