Chapter 84 New member Utane Hise! Fujiwara Tetsuya's Shura Field!
"Torune Ryoui!"
Seeing the girl who pushed the door open, Fujiwara Tetsuya's eyes flashed with surprise.
Even if he racked his brains, he wouldn't have thought that Hiruzen Sarutobi would actually assign his Chunin Exams opponent to his squad!
Moreover, Hiruzen Sarutobi was also aware of the conflict between him and the Torifu Clan.
Was it a coincidence, or had Hiruzen Sarutobi sensed something?
Did he want to use Torune Ryoui to ease the conflict between the Torifu Clan and him?
That damn monkey!
Can he just be straightforward? Every single time, he has to scheme!
Turning his head, Fujiwara Tetsuya suddenly felt a bit resentful towards Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Having such a superior was indeed a headache.
However, unlike Fujiwara Tetsuya, the moment Uchiha Mikoto saw Torune Ryoui, her gaze immediately darkened.
She probably recalled the scene from the Chunin Exams.
"Hokage-sama!"
Looking at the girl walking towards him, Fujiwara Tetsuya instinctively stepped aside.
However, Torune Ryoui did not walk in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi as he expected.
Instead, she stopped beside him.
Hmm, right between him and Uchiha Mikoto.
"Ryoui, sorry to keep you waiting."
"Starting today, you will be transferred to the Thirteenth Squad and will follow Tetsuya's command."
Hiruzen Sarutobi always held a tolerant attitude towards the clan members of his comrades.
That extremely gentle tone made Fujiwara Tetsuya shiver involuntarily.
"Yes, Hokage-sama! I understand!"
"Tetsuya-kun, long time no see!"
"I'll be relying on you to take care of me from now on!"
Under Fujiwara Tetsuya's gaze, Torune Ryoui's face flushed slightly.
That feeling was exactly the same as the expression Uchiha Mikoto often showed when she was walking alone.
And it was during the brief two seconds of Fujiwara Tetsuya's distraction that Uchiha Mikoto's displeased gaze swept over again.
As it passed Torune Ryoui, it seemed to carry a hint of hostility.
"Chunin Hishigi, you're too kind!"
"We should help each other!"
With Hiruzen Sarutobi present, no matter how much of a headache he had, he couldn't appear too cold.
However, he had a feeling that the Thirteenth Squad—no, or rather, he—would have a difficult time ahead.
"Hmm, I'm relieved to see you all getting along."
"Now, you may all be dismissed! I still have some matters to attend to!"
Under Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze, Fujiwara Tetsuya, Uchiha Mikoto, Aburame Mokujin, and the new member of the Thirteenth Squad all walked out of the Hokage Office and out of the Hokage Building.
The moment they stepped out of the Hokage Building, the atmosphere within the squad instantly grew cold.
Uchiha Mikoto and Torune Ryoui squeezed Fujiwara Tetsuya in the middle, one on each side.
Their subtle gazes constantly intersected above Fujiwara Tetsuya's head.
As for Aburame Mokujin, he was unfortunately ignored by the two girls.
"Um, well, Mikoto! Mokujin!"
"And Ryoui!"
"How about we find an open space and introduce ourselves briefly?"
Being a Ninja squad leader was definitely Fujiwara Tetsuya's first experience.
Feeling the occasional touches from both sides, Fujiwara Tetsuya had an urge to escape.
But he couldn't now.
Not to mention whether Hiruzen Sarutobi, that peeping tom, would be watching them, just figuring out how to face Uchiha Mikoto and Torune Ryoui in the future was a brain-wracking problem.
Konoha, a certain training ground.
As noon approached, the training ground became incredibly spacious at this time.
It also provided enough space for Fujiwara Tetsuya and the other three.
"We'll follow the usual custom: a simple self-introduction, and then you can add what you're good at."
"So, I'll start first!"
Looking at the two silent girls, Fujiwara Tetsuya felt a slight headache.
He cleared his throat and began his self-introduction.
His and Aburame Mokujin's introductions were not much different from when they first met.
However, when it came to Uchiha Mikoto, her 'hates' underwent a drastic change.
"What I hate are all girls who get close to Tetsuya-kun!"
"That's all!"
The moment Uchiha Mikoto's words fell, the surrounding environment became quiet again.
It seemed that even the breeze that had just swept by felt the bone-chilling cold and silently hid away.
"Then it's my turn!"
Uchiha Mikoto's blatant hostility and warning were naturally understood by Torune Ryoui.
However, Torune Ryoui, who came from the same clan as Utatane Koharu, didn't seem as fragile as she looked.
"Simple!"
"My name is Torune Ryoui! I'm from the Torifu Clan! I just became a Chunin a month ago!"
"I specialize in Water Release and Medical Ninjutsu!"
"Of course, my Water Release level can't compare to Tetsuya-kun's!"
"What I hate? Winter melon!"
"But what I like is somewhat related to what Mikoto just said!"
"What I like are people like Tetsuya-kun! Bossy on the outside, but very gentle on the inside!"
Perhaps because she had expressed her true feelings, or for some other reason, Torune Ryoui shyly put her hands behind her back.
Coincidentally, this perfectly outlined her developing figure.
"Cough..."
It had to be admitted that this sudden 'attack' indeed made Fujiwara Tetsuya choke.
It also made Uchiha Mikoto's gaze grow even colder.
Unconsciously, the crimson unique to the Uchiha Clan began to swirl again.
"Alright! I understand!"
"However, Ryoui, you're mistaken! I'm not a gentle person on the inside!"
"Since we've all briefly introduced ourselves, that's it for today!"
"Tomorrow at 9 AM, gather at the Hokage Building!"
"For the next period, I will be leading you on many missions! Be mentally prepared!"
Anyone with common sense should know that in a situation developing towards a love triangle, the wisest choice is undoubtedly to make a quick escape.
After nodding to Uchiha Mikoto and Aburame Mokujin, Fujiwara Tetsuya very decisively left using the Body Flicker Technique.
As for Aburame Mokujin, he stared at the spot where Fujiwara Tetsuya disappeared.
After a few seconds of silence, he ran off without looking back.
He preferred not to get involved in such a headache-inducing situation.
"Torune Ryoui!"
"I'll give you a piece of advice! Stay away from Tetsuya!"
"Otherwise, I won't let you off!"
After Fujiwara Tetsuya and Aburame Mokujin left, Uchiha Mikoto and Torune Ryoui no longer needed to hold back.
The smell of gunpowder in the air became even more acrid.
"Uchiha Mikoto! The genius kunoichi of the Uchiha Clan!"
"Are you threatening me?"
"May I be so bold as to ask, what exactly is your relationship with Tetsuya-kun now?"
