Chapter 28 Bird
"Ah!!!~"
Boruto felt a tearing pain in his buttocks and couldn't help but let out a deafening scream, so loud that it shocked everyone present.
Boruto kept crying out in pain, "Ah! It hurts! Let go! Let go! My butt is going to be bitten off!" His pleas echoed in the air, sounding particularly pitiful.
Boruto struggled, trying to pull Akamaru away from his buttocks with his hands, but his attempts seemed futile or even counterproductive. Akamaru's teeth penetrated deeper, and each struggle caused Boruto to feel an even more intense tearing pain, as if every inch of his skin was being mercilessly ripped apart.
Kiba Inuzuka walked slowly up to Boruto with a smug smile, a victor's grin on his lips: "Serves you right, now you know what you're getting into, Akamaru, well done!"
Hinata was filled with anxiety upon hearing Boruto's heart-wrenching screams. She hurriedly shouted to Kiba Inuzuka, "Kiba, tell Akamaru to stop! You've misunderstood! Boruto didn't bully me!"
Kiba Inuzuka paused for a moment after hearing Hinata's words, then said, "But just now..."
Before Kiba Inuzuka could finish speaking, Hinata interrupted him: "Hurry up, Boruto is dying."
Kiba Inuzuka nodded and said, "Alright, Akamaru, you can give in now."
"Awooo!" At Kiba's command, Akamaru finally released its teeth that were tightly biting Boruto's buttocks. It quickly ran back to Kiba's feet, its tail wagging.
"Damn it!" Boruto knelt on the ground in pain, clutching his buttocks tightly with one hand. The area was swollen and felt abnormal, clearly the mark left by Akamaru's bite.
"I'm so sorry! I'm really sorry, I was a bit too hasty." Kiba Inuzuka rubbed his hands together and apologized to Boruto. Hinata had already explained things clearly, and he realized that he had misunderstood Boruto.
"I just saw Hinata sitting on the floor with her face covered, and I thought she was crying. Then you reached out your hand, so... I'm really sorry."
"N-nothing...it's okay, I'll just be more careful next time." Although Boruto accepted Kiba Inuzuka's apology, he still felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He felt very wronged, and tears seemed to be welling up in his eyes.
Boruto gritted his teeth and tried to stand up, but the intense pain in his hip made it difficult for him to maintain his balance. He swayed a few times and almost lost his balance, nearly falling to the ground.
Kiba Inuzuka reacted quickly. Seeing Boruto about to fall, he immediately reached out his arm to support him, preventing him from falling to the ground and causing further injury.
Kiba and Hinata carefully helped Boruto, carrying him step by step back to Naruto's hospital room.
Aburame Shino: "..."
They gently placed Boruto on the hospital bed next to Naruto, letting him lie face down so he could rest better.
Naruto looked at Boruto in surprise. Boruto hadn't been gone for long, but he came back injured, and the injury looked quite serious.
Naruto asked, "Boruto, what happened to you? How did you end up like this after you went out? What happened? I think I heard you scream just now."
"No...it's nothing, just a minor injury, nothing serious." Despite the excruciating pain, Boruto managed a forced smile, trying to appear relaxed.
Kiba Inuzuka stood aside and told Naruto and Sakura everything that had just happened.
"Pfft~", "Pfft~".
Boruto vaguely heard two barely suppressed laughs, but when he turned around, he found that everything in the ward was normal and there was nothing unusual.
"You laughed! You must have laughed just now!" Boruto glared angrily at Naruto and Sakura.
When Boruto turned to look at them, the two of them instinctively turned their heads away, avoiding direct eye contact with Boruto and concealing their emotions.
"Pfft~ Hahahaha!"
......
On the roof of Konoha Hospital, Sasuke stood quietly, his eyes slightly closed, patiently waiting for someone to arrive.
In the emergency situation where Naruto was out of control after transforming into a tailed beast, Sasuke risked his life to fight Naruto and used all his strength to hold him off until Boruto and the Third Hokage arrived in time.
Sasuke also paid a heavy price in this battle, suffering multiple wounds.
Although Sasuke was injured in the battle with Naruto in his tailed beast form, his injuries were much less severe than the extent to which Naruto's body was corrupted by the Nine-Tails' power.
After a period of recovery, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of Sasuke. It was none other than Kakashi Hatake, whom Boruto and the others had been discussing, and who had been missing.
Sasuke's tone carried a hint of displeasure as he looked directly at Kakashi, making no attempt to hide his annoyance, and said, "You're way too slow, Kakashi! I've been waiting for you here for ages."
Kakashi looked a little tired. He yawned and said lazily to Sasuke, "Sasuke, did you ask me out alone because of something important? If it's nothing important, I'll head back now. I've already stood Boruto and Sakura up."
Sasuke put his hands in his pockets, looked directly at Kakashi, and said, word by word, "Kakashi, teach me a new ninjutsu."
Kakashi looked surprised when he heard Sasuke's request. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Oh? That's quite a sight. You're really motivated."
"I must become stronger. In order to control the course of the battle, I need to master those key moves that can determine the outcome."
In response to Sasuke's request, Kakashi smiled and said, "Since you have such determination, I do have a ninjutsu that suits you. It is a lightning-fast penetrating technique that requires perfect coordination with your Sharingan—Chidori. It will allow you to quickly break through your opponent's defenses in battle and deliver a fatal blow."
Sasuke said decisively, "Chidori? I want to learn it!"
Kakashi's expression suddenly turned serious. He stared into Sasuke's eyes and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to learn ninjutsu?"
He looked directly at Kakashi, making no attempt to hide his thoughts: "Even Naruto has mastered a powerful new ninjutsu. I can't fall behind him. I must become stronger and surpass him."
When Sasuke mentioned Naruto, a fleeting hint of melancholy crossed his face, and his thoughts involuntarily drifted back to that night.
He recalled the scene when Naruto used the Rasengan; the power almost pierced through his chest, and if he hadn't reacted quickly, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
That battle made him realize that the gap between him and Naruto was slowly widening, and it also inspired his determination to pursue greater power.
A sense of resentment welled up in Sasuke's heart. He couldn't accept that he had no technique to match Naruto's powerful ninjutsu.
This feeling of powerlessness was unbearable for him. He longed to master ninjutsu that could rival Naruto, so as to ensure that he would no longer be at a disadvantage in future battles.
Kakashi stroked his chin, indicating understanding: "Since you're so eager to become stronger, I'm willing to lend you a hand. Once your injuries have fully healed, we'll begin training..."
But before Kakashi could finish speaking, Sasuke flatly refused: "No, I want to start learning Chidori right now! I don't want to wait a moment longer!"
Kakashi carefully observed Sasuke, frowned slightly, and clicked his tongue, saying, "Well, I'm fine, but is your physical condition really up to it? You were just injured, isn't it too much to start high-intensity training right now?"
"Hmph! A mere minor injury, nothing to worry about! It won't affect me at all." Sasuke snorted dismissively, straightening his back as if he didn't care about his injury at all.
