CHAPTER 248 EARLY MORNING MEETING

CHAPTER 248 EARLY MORNING MEETING

My conversation with Mei and Hinata moved long into the night. By the end Hinata was lost but more herself as she asked us questions. Mei had to get back to her room eventually. She was disappointed there was no sex, but Hinata still wasn’t ready for a step like that. I had completed my quest so I accepted my Bonus Reward. CHeCk for new stories on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m

Tsunade wanted to leave early the next day, only to find that Sakura could not be located. Annoyed by her, it was easy enough for me to find her. Kakashi and I ran off together to get our scatter brained teammate. Kakashi didn’t question how I knew where to find her. A quick lie about jutsus was good enough for most people.

We ran through the woods, Sakura straight ahead. I didn't think there was anything odd about the situation until we came upon the scene of Sasuke and Sakura staring at one another.

Kakashi didn’t hesitate. Running out he moved into the clearing stopping away from the bridge-crossed lovers. I didn’t think they were worthy of being called star-crossed and they were currently on a bridge, so it fit. I moved to near Kakashi, annoyed by this new drama.

“What’s going on?” Kakashi asked, his voice tense.

“Sakura was just telling me how much she wanted to go with me,” Sasuke said. A bored look on his face. “Even willing to go against the Leaf for it.” I could feel the pain from Sakura as he said the words. My anger took over.

“Goddammit,” I said, my anger flaring. “What the fuck is your problem?!” I yelled at Sasuke. My voice echoing in the ravine we were overtop, I ignored the stare from the others and stepped up.

“What are you trying to do?! Trick her to hate you? Like your brother did?!” I roared. “Sasuke you’re a fucking joke. I heard about your fight with Itachi. What’s sad. He went easy on you. He wanted you to win. And you have the nerve to act all high and mighty? Fuck this and fuck you.”

I channeled chakra, haki, nen, heat, and my Tremor fruit into my fist. My fist glowing red I leapt forward. He dodged just barely but the force made his face ripple. The vibration from my Tremor pushed into his cheek, making his teeth chatter. My next blow didn’t miss. I hit him squarely in the stomach.

Spitting up blood he was thrown back into the wall of the ravine. His body cratering into the rock I didn’t hesitate to keep it going. Hitting him again, this time he burst into smoke as I connected with a clone. I didn’t miss him in his escape though. Grabbing onto his leg as he tried to dodge in the smoke I crushed his ankle with a jerk of my hand.

“I fucking said-“ I said through gritted teeth, my anger only growing. “I’d kick your ass!” I threw him back into the rock wall. His body hit it hard. His mind dazed, I still didn’t look into his eyes.

“Going to come willingly?” I asked.

“I don’t think so,” Obito said as he appeared behind Sasuke. I didn’t hesitate. Sending a huge wave of heat at him the man reacted more quickly than I expected. Grabbing Sasuke’s shoulder they disappeared once more.

“Fuck,” I said as Obito and Sasuke appeared further away. “Fuck you Obito! You coward! Let’s end this!”

“I don’t think so,” Obito said. “I’ve set the stage. This goes how I want it to.”

“You’re a pawn, Obito! How do you not see that?!” I yelled. “Do you really think Madara happened upon you?! That guy probably made the boulder fall on you. Manipulated events to kill Rin! You know it deep down!”

“You...” Obito said. “Speak of things you know nothing about!” He said then disappeared into his eye.

Actually no it was his anus. It was a stretch to call it that but I was sick of the guy and his power. At least I confirmed that heat worked on him. I’d have to beat him with my quirk, but it could be done.

“Why did you do that Weston?” Sakura asked as she walked up. There were tears in her eyes as she looked around us.

“Because he pissed me off,” I said simply. “Spouting that holier than thou bull crap. Thinks he’s freaking stronger than everyone.” I had over 2 years of training on the guy and a bunch of powers he knew nothing about. I was mainly upset I hadn’t got a quest to fight him.

“What were you doing here, Sakura?” Kakashi asked.

“I chased after him. I was hoping to talk sense into him,” she said.

“And the thing about leaving the village to come join him?” I asked. She didn’t have an answer for that. I was pretty sure this had happened in the story. She had hoped to get close to him to kill him then herself. “Glad you’re okay,” I said, patting her head.

Letting out a calming breath I knew I’d gotten lucky. Sasuke had a lot of powers he hadn’t used. That weird Susano armor, his Chidori. But when I didn’t let them charge chakra up and talk my ear off it was easy to keep them on the ropes. This wouldn’t be the last time we fought. I’d have to make sure to be ready next time.

We were soon walking back in an awkward silence as we headed to the caravan. I had a lock on Sasuke and Obito. They were heading south. I’d know for sure where they were going soon enough. Then all of this annoying drama would end.

I had big plans for Naruto World in the future. But for now I needed to finish my Challenges. Taking over the world could wait. Until I was strong enough to take on every ninja, I couldn’t get too cocky. Beating Sasuke was just 1 step in proving my strength. The real test would be soon enough.
