Chapter 151 Sasuke: Where's my tea?
Sasuke and Naruto stared at each other for three seconds, then Sasuke raised his head and said proudly, "Do you think that with my control, I would miss?"
Naruto thought for a moment, then shook his head.
Due to his bloodline limit, Sasuke's control and accuracy are excellent, better than Naruto's, and about the same as Hinata's.
Therefore, if it were Sasuke, he should be able to accomplish it.
"Alright, let's go."
Hinata led the three of them toward the hornet's nest.
A few dozen seconds later, in the grass not far from the hornet's nest.
Four heads were squeezed together.
"Hey, look, those are wasps."
A finger peeked out from the grass, pointing at the wasps flying around the hornet's nest, and said.
Why aren't they in their nest?
Karin tilted her head, rested it on Sasuke's shoulder, and asked.
"...Because it's daytime now."
Sasuke felt the weight on his shoulder, paused for a moment, and then explained.
"What should we do then?
If our plan can't be carried out and we can't wipe them all out, the other surviving wasps will come and hunt us down."
The sound of wasps' wings vibrating in the air was a buzzing noise that was quite bothersome.
"How about we wait until noon?
The wasps should take a nap at noon, right?
After all, it's so hot now, there can't be any wasps flying around outside at noon."
Hinata suggested, and the other three looked at her with surprise.
"W-what's wrong?"
Hinata looked at the group of people staring at her and felt inexplicably shy.
"No, it's just that this is the first time I've heard Hinata-nee say so much."
Karin explained that although Hinata wasn't shy about talking to everyone before, she didn't say much each time, and mostly listened to or looked at her older brother.
Sasuke nodded in agreement, glancing at Naruto every now and then.
Naruto scratched his head and came to Hinata's rescue, saying, "Well, I think Hinata is right. How about we go back and wait until noon?"
Everyone reached an agreement, so they started walking towards the house.
"Well, they're all recent graduates. Although they have some skills, there's still a lot they need to learn."
Kakashi took a sip of tea, and a wisp of white steam rose from the teacup; if you smelled it closely, you could also detect the fragrance of flowers.
Perhaps sitting at home every day, brewing tea, and tending to flowers seems like a good option.
Kakashi squinted, savoring the aroma of the tea, and chatted with Nako.
"Oh dear, you'll have to work hard then, but these kids seem quite well-behaved."
Naoko gently covered her rosy lips with her palm, chuckled softly, and then offered her idea.
"Am I being good?"
Kakashi pondered for a moment, then picked up his teacup, took another sip of hot tea, and let out a long sigh.
Well, these children are actually very obedient and they always fulfill their own requests.
However, since their strength far surpasses that of their peers, they inevitably develop a sense of pride. But with Naruto keeping them in check... nothing should happen, right?
Kakashi understood this, smiled faintly, then put down his teacup and swiftly put on his mask.
"Kakashi-sensei!"
A blond-haired creature pounced from behind and hugged Kakashi's waist like a sloth.
Click.
A faint cracking sound echoed in Kakashi's mind, followed by a sharp pain in his waist.
...
"Hey, you drag me! Let go of me!"
Kakashi gritted his teeth and said to Naruto, who had a wicked grin on his face.
"Huh?
Seriously, Kakashi-sensei is so boring."
Naruto pursed his lips, then reluctantly let go of his hand, and under Kakashi's gaze as he rubbed his waist, he poked his own fingers.
"puff..."
Karin couldn't help but laugh.
"So, you've completed your mission?"
Kakashi rubbed his lower back while asking the four little devils in front of him a question.
"No, but we already have a plan."
Naruto's lips curled up, his eyes blinked, and he looked sincerely at Kakashi and Naoko.
"Oh, what's the plan? Tell Auntie about it."
Naruto looked at the very confident Naruto, blinked, patted his wicked chest, and asked curiously.
"We plan to wait until noon, when these wicked wasps have all gone home, so we can catch them all at once."
A hint of smugness flashed in Sasuke's eyes, but he didn't say it aloud. However, Karin and Naruto sensed the overwhelming smugness in him.
"Wow, that's amazing! So, what method do you plan to use?"
"That's what Nako asked next."
"We plan to use fire to annihilate them in one fell swoop."
Naruto said.
"Ah...fire attack, fire attack is a... um? Fire attack?"
Nako's head, which was nodding, suddenly froze. "Setting fire in my beautiful garden?"
"Don't worry, Sasuke has very strong self-control."
Naruto patted Naoko on the shoulder, revealing the same smile as the kappa that had haunted his nightmares in the past.
"Really?"
Naoko glanced at Kakashi, who was choking on his tea, but the eye contact didn't reassure her.
"Ahem, don't worry, I'll stay with them. Even if something happens, I'll handle it."
Kakashi patted his chest, calming his shocked heart.
Then he looked at Sasuke, unsure of what to say.
After all, he's Itachi's younger brother, and Sasuke showed great strength in the previous tests, so there shouldn't be any problems.
Thinking of Itachi's outstanding performance, Kakashi's heart gradually calmed down, and he picked up his teacup again.
"Um, do you still have tea?"
Kakashi looked at the empty teacup and asked Naoko.
"Ah, yes, there are."
Naoko got up to get the teapot and refilled Kakashi's cup.
"Mmm, I want one too!"
Naruto raised his hand, looked at Aunt Naoko, and jumped up and down.
"Okay, no problem!"
Hearing Kakashi's assurance, Naoko felt relieved. She then fetched four antique-style teacups and served a cup of tea to each of the four children.
"Mmm...smells so good."
Naruto picked up his teacup, took a gentle sniff, and then his eyes lit up (✪ω✪).
Sasuke, seeing Naruto's reaction, and based on his years of experience with him, knew that this should be a good drink.
He raised his hand and took a sip of tea, just like Kakashi-sensei. A warm sensation went down his throat, and the fragrance of flowers bloomed in his mouth.
Mmm~ So elegant!
Sasuke put down the hot teacup, closed his eyes, and savored the aroma of the tea as it went down his throat.
Well, after the mission is over, I'll find this auntie and buy some to take back to my parents.
Sasuke thought to himself, then reached for the teacup he had just put down.
?
Why isn't it there anymore?
Sasuke opened his eyes and found that his teacup was left next to Naruto, and it was empty.
