章節 36: Chapter 36: Dinner Together
"Father, has this child become your student? And is this child also the one who has helped you?" Kakashi looked at his father seriously, waiting for an answer that would calm his mind.
Sakumo nodded while chewing his food. "That's right, his name is Aoki Sora…" Before Sakumo could continue his explanation, Aoki interrupted with fiery enthusiasm.
"The one who will become the strongest swordsman in the world! The one whose name will make people admire and fear him at the same time! They will see a great man skilled in various sword techniques!" Aoki spoke with full confidence, his tone arrogant and self-assured.
Obito, not wanting to be outdone, shot Aoki a condescending look. "Ah, no way! Someone who hasn't even entered the Ninja Academy can't possibly use chakra well? Maybe I should train you, huh!"
Aoki, feeling insulted, immediately retorted angrily. "What?! You want to pick a fight with me, huh?"
"Who's afraid!" Obito replied, challenging Aoki without hesitation.
Rin let out a long sigh, trying to hold her patience. "Enough, Obito, be quiet! Didn't I tell you to be quiet?"
"But…" Obito stopped mid-sentence when he saw Rin's fierce gaze, quickly backing down. "Alright…"
After the tension eased, Kakashi, who had been observing the dynamics among them, spoke in a low but sincere voice. "Is that so… Then, I want to thank you very much for helping my father." Kakashi slightly bowed as a sign of respect.
Aoki, now calmer, smiled while eating meat. "No problem! Besides, Uncle Sakumo is an amazing person! Those who abandon their missions may be considered trash, but those who abandon their friends are worse than trash!"
Aoki's words made the atmosphere at the table fall silent. Sakumo looked at Aoki with pride, while Kakashi pondered the meaning behind those words.
There was something deeper than just Aoki's ambition to become the strongest swordsman—a sharp understanding of the values that truly matter in the ninja world.
Kakashi, Rin, and Obito were silent, taken aback by Aoki's statement. They exchanged glances for a moment before looking at Aoki with a mix of admiration and curiosity.
"That's true," Kakashi finally spoke up, his brows furrowing in confusion. "Why didn't you enter the Ninja Academy? Didn't my father train you?"
Aoki smiled faintly, his face showing unwavering confidence. "I was born with very little chakra," Aoki replied without hesitation, "That's why I couldn't enter the Ninja Academy. But don't worry. Even with little chakra, I will become the strongest swordsman!"
Kakashi, Rin, and Obito were shocked again. They hadn't expected that Aoki, with his calm demeanor, had such a significant limitation.
"So, you will continue to train to become a swordsman even with so little chakra?" Rin asked with curious eyes.
"Exactly!" Aoki affirmed, raising his chopsticks like a hero brandishing a sword. "I will become the strongest swordsman, no matter how little chakra I have!"
Obito, sitting across from Aoki, smiled enthusiastically. "Then, I challenge you to something else. Let's see who can eat more!"
Obito's challenge lightened the mood. They all laughed, and the eating contest began. The cheerful atmosphere felt in stark contrast to the struggles Aoki faced.
Amidst their laughter and competition, Sakumo could only smile bitterly, watching his wallet grow thinner. Sakumo couldn't help but shed imaginary tears at how the hard-earned money was quickly spent on food. After the meal, Aoki, Rin, and Obito bid farewell to Sakumo and Kakashi.
