Asuma look unhappy, "New student, what do you want?"

However, Kakashi completely ignored his existence and just looked at Sōseki, "I’ll introduce myself, my name is Hatake Kakashi. "

Sōseki smiled gently and said," My name is Shimizu Sōseki, it's the first time we meet, so please take care of me. "

Kakashi nodded, “Okay, now."

Everyone around was puzzled, ‘Did we jump through time? Why does it feel like a dialogue is missing in the middle?’

Even Sōseki also stunned for a moment, and then he chuckled lightly, ‘Was he a communication idiot who didn't understand communication and polite exchanges at all?’

Of course, there are some geniuses who have the pride.

Asuma on the side also understood, and asked with a cold expression, "You mean, you want to teach Sōseki?"

Kakashi looked puzzled and said, "Didn't he ask me for advice? "

Asuma was stunned, as he is unable to tell whether this guy was arrogant or just really stupid.

Sōseki smiled helplessly, "I’m happy to accept your advice, but I've already made an appointment with my friend today, so we should do it next time."

"Is that so? I understand.... "Kakashi nodded thoughtfully and said with a hint of arrogance," I will try to end the battle within one minute. "

Asuma then looked at Kakashi with sympathy in his eyes, ‘This child is just really stupid.’

As for the reaction of the people around them, it was-

“Huh, I did not expect this white-haired brat would have so much self-confidence.”

“This guy saw Uchiha Shūnen’s performance and still think he can hold on for one minute? He’s clearly very arrogant! "

"Oh, so that's what it is. "

"Huh, are this year's new students are all so arrogant? "

Kakashi became a little sullen after hearing this. He is not the kind of people who like to show off, and the reason why he challenged Sōseki, including his fighting spirit has been ignited after watching the battle, it is also because he is not convinced by his father's evaluation.

‘But are these bastards deaf? Why did it suddenly become that I said that I will hold on for one minute in the fight?’

‘What's more hateful is that they said I’m very arrogant just because of holding for one minute.’

‘Perhaps this is Jiraiya-sama mentioned in "Counter-attack Shinobi Biography". The contempt of the people around him will become the source of the protagonist's growth.’ Kakashi recalled the story of the lowest ranking’s counter-attack in the book, and his originally cold heart calmed down a little. (T/N: I don’t know what this Counter-attack Shinobi Biography mentioned in this paragraph. But I know that it’s not the Tale of the Utterly Gutsy Shinobi nor Icha-Icha series)

"Since you ask for it like this, then I have to agree." Sōseki chuckled lightly, not caring about the other party's rudeness.

Seeing this, the little gamblers got excited again.

"Wow, it’s going to begin soon......"

Obito leaned close to Rin and asked with serious expression, "Rin, what do you think I should bet this time?"

Before Rin had time to speak, Shūnen, who is on the side, shook his head and said, "You remember what I said it before, right? Before awakening the Sharingan, I didn't even have the ability to resist in front of Sōseki."

"Huh? What do you mean by that?" Obito asked in confusion.

Shūnen sighed and looked at Kakashi with sympathy, "Let's put it this way, Taijutsu is actually Soseki's weakest aspect."

Obito was stunned for a moment. He then pointed at the tragic state of the forest and exclaimed, "This is the weakest?"

In the forest, Soseki gently brushed the fallen leaves off his shoulders, "Kakashi, are you ready?"

Kakashi get into offensive stance and said, "Come."

The moment his word fell, the fallen leaves in mid-air began to dance, raising one after another, attracting Kakashi's attention.

Sōseki walked slowly and brushed past Kakashi, "Sorry, but I'm in a hurry now. As an apology, let me give you a good illusion."

After saying that, Sōseki walked away, while Kakashi seemed to be distracted, and just standing still.

Seeing this, Obito woke up from his sluggishness and asked, "What's going on? Is that guy Kakashi asleep?"

"It’s a Genjutsu!" Shūnen said with tone full of lament and admiration, "This is Sōseki’s real strength!"

"Amazing!" Obito lost his mind for a while, and then became inexplicably excited again, "Rin is really very good. She must have deliberately pulled me into the Psychology Club to attract the attention of the seniors, and then she and I can ask him for Genjutsu."

Just as Obito fell into a beautiful fantasy once again, there was a sudden burst of cheers around him.

"Wow! Sōseki really too elegant and gentle!"

"It's too much, can't that new student last longer?"

"That's right, I wanted to enjoy Soseki's battle for some time!"

"It's so painful. I seem to have a disease that causes headaches when I can't see Sōseki."

"Well, I seem to be sick too, no, I need to go to the Psychology Club tomorrow to see Sōseki-senpai."

Hearing these voices of admiration and worship, Obito's face was bitter, "It seems that it will be a little difficult to attract the attention of the seniors!"

......

At the Konoha’s market.

"This is our Thunder Fang fine iron that has been baptized by thunder and lightning all the year round on the Valley of Clouds and Lightning in our Land of Lightning. It has very good Lightning Attribute Chakra’s conductivity. It usually costs 10,000,000 Ryō to buy it, but we are now offering a big discount...... "

"The Land of Lightning’s top wagyu beef, it’s really beefy!"

"This is our Kumogakure’s specialty wine, lightning emperor, and Raikage-sama says it’s very good! "

"Raikage says it’s very good? "Asuma stood in front of a booth, his eyes seemed to be eager to try, and he stretched his neck to smell inside.

"Go away, go away you little brats, do not come to make trouble." The stall owner obviously didn't think that the two children would have the ability to purchase his merchandise.

"Hmph! Even if you give it to me, I don’t want it." Asuma used arrogant psychological attack, and turned his head away, pretending to be disgusted.

Sōseki followed behind him, and his eyes swept across the crowd from time to time.

"Hah, it’s really boring." Asuma’s interest did not last long, and he soon lose interest, "By the way, Sōseki, I see that you've been looking around since the beginning, is there something you want to buy? It's okay, I'll treat you!"

Sōseki just shook his head lightly at Asuma's rich kid behavior, "It's not their goods that interest me, but their eyes! "

Asuma’s body trembled upon hearing this, and then he lowered his voice and asked, "Sōseki, are you going to gouge their eyes?"

Sōseki could not help but laughed upon hearing this, "I didn’t mean that."

"But, you just said ...... "

"I mean, something in their eyes."

Asuma turned around abruptly, and stared into an adult's eyes for a long time, until he noticed it, and then turned back excitedly and said, "I saw it, there is eye boogers, he must have not washed his face in the morning!"

Hearing this, Sōseki did not know whether to cry or laugh, "Well, that is indeed something in their eyes, but what I really care about is the real emotions that their eyes can convey."

Before Asuma could speak, Sōseki continued, "I learned about this when I was still in the hospital as many adults like to wear masks on their faces."

Asuma asked suspiciously, "Mask?"

"A disguise to hide your true thoughts, that is a mask."

"I understand, just like that old fogey obviously like to watch women taking a bath, but refused to go directly to the bathhouse to see, but hides at home and peeps...... "

"Cough cough!"
