The students of Class A were brought to the training field for their regular taijutsu training, and as usual, currently, they were either warming up their bodies or thinking of who to carry out their training against.
It has already been announced that at the end of this month, the academy will have an assessnt to test the taijutsu prowess of all the students, so all the children were nervous and serious about it.
What happened after the previous assessnt has not been forgotten by them.
The results of the previous assessnt were pasted on the academy’s notice board allowing all the students in the academy as well as the villagers to know everyone’s scores.
The fact that Rock Lee scored last, and the fact that he couldn’t even perform such a simple Jutsu is now a well-known fact throughout the village.
Rock Lee was mocked and made fun of for his last rank… His experience was very tragic, and no one seems to want to go through that sa experience.
Ranking last in the assessnts has beco a form of punishnt that no one wants to get, that’s why everyone is extrely serious about the assessnts.
Whether it is rambunctious Uzumaki Naruto, extrely lazy Nara Shikamaru, or the self-willed princess Shion, none of them dared to underestimate the academy’s assessnt and did all they could to train for it in order to perform better in it for they feared the consequences.
Standing in one corner of the training field, Neji swept his eyes across the training field… He was searching for a suitable training partner.
Taijutsu is originally his specialty, and recently he has been carrying out intensive training and has made progress by leaps and bounds so there is hardly anyone among the current trainees who can match him. This left Neji in a bit of a dilemma as he couldn’t think of any suitable training part–… and just then, his gaze t with another kid who had the sa thoughts in his mind, “Sasuke?”
Seeing Sasuke also looking at himself, Neji thought to himself, ‘Train with Sasuke?’
Although Neji felt that this wasn’t the ti to train with Sasuke, seeing that there was no other option before him, he didn’t mind it… Sasuke is indeed the best training partner he can have, so without thinking too much, he activated his Byakugan… intentions were clear…
However, before that thought could go any further, Neji was distracted… Perhaps it would be better to say that his attention was attracted by sothing else…
That sothing else is a vastly deep and concentrated chakra… And it unexpectedly appeared in the field of vision of his Byakugan.
“This Chakra…?” he muttered with a startled expression and subconsciously step backward in shock.
Never in his life has Neji ever seen such a strong chakra… Of course, Neji hasn’t seen the chakra of too many people, but among all the people whose chakra he has seen, this is the first ti he has seen such a chakra that made his hair tingle.
Neji looked in the direction of the chakra source and muttered to himself in shock and confusion, “I am afraid that even Patriarch’s chakra is nothing in comparison… heck, let alone the Patriarch, even the Chakra of the three Sannin, and the chakra of Hokage-sama is nothing in comparison… just whose chakra is it really?”
Seeing that Neji was no longer paying attention to him, instead, he was looking sowhere in the forest with a dazed expression, Sasuke frowned… he ignored the pair of Sakura and Ino who were swooning over him, and walked over to Neji’s side with his hands in his pockets, “What’s wrong with you Neji? Aren’t you going to train with ? By the way, what are you looking at?”
Neji shook his head, “Nothing…” then added with a solemn expression, “I am afraid I can’t be your training partner today… please train with soone else, there is a very important matter I must take care of!”
Leaving such words, Neji no longer paid attention to Sasuke and hurried inside the forest.
Such a powerful chakra is way beyond his imagination… Neji believes that he must go and see for himself the person who owns such a terrifying chakra…!
If he is honest, it wasn’t just his curiosity… Neji is also sort of worried. For so reason, even if he is able to see that chakra, he isn’t able to sense it, which is a matter of concern… heck, let alone sense, for so reason he isn’t even able to see the color of this chakra so he is unable to recognize the person who owns this chakra.
Moreover, the surroundings are way too calm… normally if such a powerful chakra were to appear, intense winds will start to blow all around… animals and birds will start to run away from the source… but the sky and the forest are normal… no heavy winds, no crying and panicked animals running away from the forest… This normality makes Neji very confused.
Therefore, he must go and verify…
Of course, he could have also chosen to inform the teachers about this, but, that thought escaped his mind… and so here he is, running towards the forest.
Seeing Neji ignoring and running away, Sasuke was annoyed, “Hey Neji, co back here… Where the hell do you think you are going?”
But Neji didn’t pay attention to Sasuke’s words and continued ahead.
Annoyed, “Grrr…” Sasuke chased after him…
Seeing Sasuke coming after him, Neji asked him, “Why are you following ?”
Sasuke questioned back, “I should be the one asking the question here… where do you think you are going? Don’t tell you did this on purpose because you are afraid of losing?”
Neji said, “ and run away from you? Oh please Sasuke… You should know that when it cos to pure Taijutsu you are no match for …”
Sasuke snorted, “When did you start assuming that I am no match for you in Taijutsu?”
Neji said, “I didn’t assu anything… it’s a fact!”
Sasuke said, “Well I say, it’s not!”
Neji shook his head, “You can’t deny what’s true.”
“I can deny whatever I want, I am an Uchiha…” Sasuke said, then added, while activating his Sharingan, “And if you have any problem with that then why don’t you prove wrong?”
Neji didn’t give a reply… instead he ca to a sudden stop.
Sasuke smirked, “What… you afraid now?”
“Shhh…!” Neji said, “Be quiet… and hide!” and tried to look ahead while hiding behind the tree.
Seeing Neji’s actions, Sasuke finally felt that sothing was up… he quieted down and while hiding himself behind the sa tree, he asked in a low voice, “Can you please explain what’s going on? Earlier you were running, and now you are hiding… from what? I didn’t see a there!”
Hearing Sasuke’s words, Neji was taken aback, “You can’t see that?”
Sasuke asked doubtfully, “See what?”
Neji beca silent… and after a while of thinking, he realized, “It makes sense… there is a barrier around… this is why you can’t see it with your Sharingan, but I can with my Byakugan…!”
Sasuke’s face also turned serious, and he questioned, “Explain to clearly… what exactly are you seeing?”
