Naruto Time Control

Chapter 251: Kurenai, you have to start as soon as possible.

On the training field.

Yeruashi stood calmly in the middle of the area, with his right hand behind his back and blocking Itachi's attacks with his left hand.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!!!

Itachi's fists repeatedly collided with Yeruashi's palm, and the crimson pupils with two tomoe spun, catching Yeruashi's every move in an attempt to find some flaws, but all to no avail.

After another collision, Yeruashi thrust his left palm forward.

Bang!

Itachi crossed his hands in front of him, but was still thrown away by Yeruashi's palm.

But he was not lost and performed a series of hand seals in mid-flight.

"Fire Jutsu: Great Fireball!"

Boom!

A large fireball shot towards Yeruashi.

Yeruashi abruptly swung his left hand like a sharp sword, slashing the empty air with his palm, in the next instant, the large fireball split into two parts in the center.

Whoosh! whoosh! whoosh! whoosh!!!!

The moment the fireball was cut, about ten shurikens burst out of the flames, heading towards Yeruashi's body at different angles, blocking any escape route.

Yeruashi smiled and raised his left hand, holding one of the flame-wrapped shurikens between his index finger and thumb, causing the flame aggression to be extinguished in the blink of an eye, and then swung the same hand, leaving a residual image and fending off the rest of the shuriken.

At that moment.

Uchiha Itachi, who had been in front of Yeruashi a moment before, disappeared at some point.

In the next instant, his figure appeared from the ground behind Yeruashi and threw a quick strike with his kunai in the center of his back.

DING!!!

The moment he approached Yeruashi's back, this kunai was blocked by his index finger, colliding with the fingertip, the kunai made a ringing sound and he couldn't move a millimeter.

"Not bad."

Yeruashi turned around, looking at Itachi panting and said, "With this series of attacks, you can easily kill Chuunin, looks like you didn't relax because of the early throw."

Itachi took several deep breaths, calming his breathing, and bowed to Yeruashi.

Yeruashi turned around and left the area, at the same time saying, "Enough, find Shisui and tell him that I am satisfied with your strength and you have my permission to join the Third Shadow Guard Squadron."

"Hay!"

Hearing Yeruashi's words, Itachi nodded grimly, but there was a rare hint of joy in the depths of his eyes.

As Yeruashi's student, Itachi was well aware of how difficult it was to gain his sensei's approval. Therefore, after his early graduation from the academy, he repeatedly asked Shisui for advice and guidance. Now that he could join the Shadow Guards and work with Shisui, it was good news for him.

Yeruashi's figure blurred and left the Uchiha Clan's territory, soon appearing in his office.

Shikaku Nara, who had just entered the Hokage's office, was not surprised by Yeruashi's sudden appearance, he approached the table and said, "Hokage-sama, regarding the reception of the envoys from Kumogakure, you planned to hold a celebration tomorrow, what do you think on this?"

"Good."

Yeruashi nodded: "Do as you see fit."

Shikaku nodded: "I'll go inform the departments to get ready then."

After Shikaku left, Yeruashi looked out the window. Seeing the sky darkening, he got up and went up to the fifth floor, soon entering the living room.

Right now.

Kurenai's room.

Anko put her hands on Kurenai's shoulders and shook her as she said, "Kurenai, listen to me! You should take advantage of it if you can... Rin will no longer be your opponent, all her attempts will be meaningless, you must act decisively... quickly up and down... up and down..."

The more Kurenai listened to Anko's description, the redder her face got, and in the end, she couldn't take it anymore and exclaimed, "Anko, how did you know those... things!"

"Of course, from the books, Kakashi has a lot of them..."

Anko also blushed, but unlike Kurenai, she was very excited and said, "This time, I'll help you completely get over Rin!"

Kurenai blushed, hesitated for a moment, and said, "But...but.... Then Yeruashi might think I'm too much... that.... That?...."

"That won't happen."

Anko nodded confidently and said, "It's written in the books that all men love it, so there won't be such a problem."

"No... I can't... I'm not ready..."

"Are you going to let Rin get ahead of you? Yeruashi will do it sooner or later anyway, are you really going to miss this chance...?"

"...Ah? Ah?!"

Hearing Anko's words, Kurenai was confused for a while.

On the couch in the living room.

Yeruashi took an apple from the table and brought it to his mouth, but suddenly he abruptly froze and the corners of his mouth began to twitch, after a while he shook his head helplessly and took a bite of the apple.

It seems that Kakashi deflected Anko, and now Anko herself is trying to deflect the modest and elegant Kurenai.

Isn't that too fast?

A thirteen-year-old girl deflecting a sixteen-year-old girl?

In his previous life, at the age of sixteen, he was a completely normal teenager, but in this world, everything is completely different, or was it just him?

Yeruashi suspected that the second option was also possible.

After a while.

The door to Kurenai's room opened and then Kurenai and Anko came out, looking very unnatural.

When they saw Yeruashi sitting on the sofa, Kurenai's eyes flashed with panic and she said, "Hey.... Yeruashi, are you back already? Then I'll prepare dinner."

Yeruashi looked at Kurenai, who ran to the kitchen in panic, then looked at Anko and said, "What were you two talking about?"

Anko looked at him and smiled, " Ah, nothing important, I'll go help Kurenai."

...

Time passed quickly.

The next day.

Yeruashi received a meeting request from the head of the Hyuga clan, Hiashi Hyuga. He roughly understood the gist of things, without further delay he received Hiashi at the Hokage's office.

"... This is the situation, I hope you will give me permission, Hokage-sama."

Hiashi described the situation and bowed politely to Yeruashi.

As he expected, Hinata's birthday coincided with the celebration in Konoha. The Hyuga clan has a tradition regarding the installation of the birdcage for the younger generation of the clan when the first child of the clan head turns three.

"Your absence from the celebration may be considered disrespectful by the envoys of Kumogakure...but don't worry about that."

Yeruashi looked at the bowed Hiashi and said calmly. The first part of the sentence made Hiashi tense up a bit, but after hearing Yeruashi's last words, he immediately relaxed.

Hiashi looked up and saw a slight smile on the Fifth Hokage's face.

"I give permission, you may go."

"Thank you, Hokage-sama."

Hiashi bowed gratefully once more and walked out of the Hokage's office.
