35 Chapter 34 Academy Festival

"Wow, it turned out to be Sōseki-senpai!" On the side, Rin cheered with little stars twinkling in her eyes.

'Dangereous!' Seeing Rin's reaction was even more serious than when she saw Kakashi before, Obito instantly realized the crisis.

Guy asked excitedly, "Is it a senior in later year?"

Rin shook her head and answered, "No, Sōseki-senpai is the second-year senior."

Obito twitched his lips, "What? It turns out that he is only one year older than us."

"You are not a Medical-nin, so of course you don't understand how amazing Sōseki-senpai is." Rin clasped her hands in front of her chest, and said admiringly, "Sōseki-Senpai is Tsunade-sama's disciple, and he was able to preside over some minor operation in the hospital in just one year."

Obito scratched his head when he heard this, 'Is it really amazing? Why do I feel that I can beat him?'

Guy looked towards Shūnen asked suspiciously, "Senpai, the person you want to challenge is a Medical-nin?"

Even if Shūnen has already looked away, his body trembled when he was suddenly asked this question, and there was a trace of grief and anger in his eyes, "Medical-nin is the most annoying to deal with!"

Everyone around is looking at him with strange eyes, 'Why does it feel that Shūnen-senpai's voice is like crying? This must be an illusion!

Guy was surprised and exclaimed, "In just one year, does that senior already have the same level of strength as Shūnen-senpai?"

Shūnen calmed down his restless heart and returned his normal state again, "To be precise, it was two months. It took him only two months to surpass my three years of hard work!"

Hearing this, Obito shouted in disbelief. "How is it possible? Cousin Shūnen, you are a genius who was able to awaken Sharingan when you are just eight years old!"

"My Sharingan was awakened during my battle with him."Shūnen sighed, and said with recollection in his eyes, "It can even be said that if I hadn't awakened my Sharingan, I wouldn't even have the ability to resist him."

Hearing what Shūnen said, Obito and the others could not help but widen their eyes in shock, 'Shūnen-senpai is already so strong, but he actually said that he isn't Sōseki-senpai's opponent?'

Obito was the who is shocked the most. He often heard the adults the clan talk about how powerful his cousin Shūnen is, but he didn't expect that he would be disillusioned on the first day of school.

Even Kakashi, who pretended to be indifferent but actually pricked up his ears and listened to this, was surprised. He had heard his father say that Uchiha is an extremely prideful clan.

"Even the prideful Uchiha say such things...Shimizu Sōseki? I'm starting to get a little interested in this boring Academy life."

Guy, who was eager for youth and blood, had his eyes shining after hearing this, and then he looked at Shūnen with extremely passionate gaze and said, "Shūnen-senpai, can we also watch the battle?"

"Of course there's no problem."Shūnen shivered at the passionate gaze, and quickly turned his eyes away, "Moreover, you can also drop by to participate in the Academy Festival."

Rin asked curiously, "The Academy Festival? What is that?"

Shūnen organized his words and said, "It means that students from all grades form clubs according to their hobbies, and then invite other students, or the people from the village to join together. In short, it is a place for you to meet friends and establish yourselves."

"Wow, it sounds interesting." Rin clapped her hands cheerfully, but soon a new doubt arose, "But, why haven't I heard of it before?"

"Because this was proposed by Sōseki just before the last semester's holiday." Shūnen said, and then patted Obito's shoulder, "You guys sure are lucky. You just happened to enroll in time with the first Academy Festival"

Guy's eyes lit up as he listened from the sidelines, "That's great. I'm going to form the Power of Youth club. Does anyone want to join?"

However, as long as it was within his sight, everyone around turned their heads as quickly as possible.

Seeing Guy's unwillingness, Obito quickly changed the subject, "Will anyone really participate in this Academy Festival? After all, that Sōseki-senpai was just a new student last year, right?"

Shūnen, who has been brainwashed by Sōseki, said in the most determined tone, "If it were him, there would be no problem!"

Without waiting for them to ask questions, Shūnen took the initiative to explain, "This is because everyone in every grade is very convinced of him. Speaking of which, the reason Sōseki can have such a reputation, can also be credited to me!"

"I know, it must be because you, cousin Shūnen used to be the most powerful person in the Academy!" Obito made a deduction with a look of resentment, "After Shimizu Sōseki defeated you, he seized your position as the strongest!"

"Great words, maybe it's not wrong." Shūnen's eyes were weird, "But in terms of status, you can say that I'm the most disliked person in the Academy."

"Huh?" Obito tilted his head and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"

"Well, it's because I used to be a bully among bullies!" Shūnen smiled frankly without the slightest embarrassment, "Those bastards who attacked you just now were actually my subordinates."

Hearing this, the surrounding students exclaimed in unison, "Huuuhh!!!"

Obito also stammered and asked, "This, what the hell is going on?"

"It seems that the clansmen have never said how much bastard I used to be, oh that's right, they only care about my Sharingan's awakening." Shūnen laughed at himself, and then put both of his hands on Obito's shoulders and said sternly, "I used to be too extreme and didn't understand the true meaning of love at all. I thought that using violence to make people 'revere' the Uchiha is the love for my father, and I think I can get the love of my classmates without paying anything. It was Sōseki who woke me up and get me out of that illusion!"

'So nauseous! Is cousin Shūnen not shy at all?' Obito felt goosebumps all over his body upon hearing this, and just as he was thinking about how to escape this devil's claws, the corner of his eye suddenly drifted to Rin, who was beside him.

'Wait...If I can be as cheeky as cousin Shūnen, will I be able to say I love Rin in front of her... Ehehe.'

Thinking of this, Obito's gaze became extremely firm, "Cousin Shūnen, I understand!"

Shūnen's nodded with relief, and said a little sentimentally, "Sometimes, mistakes have already been made, and no matter how much you do, things can't be undone, so don't be a bastard like me in the future!"

Obito nodded in understanding even if he didn't understand, and at this moment, Guy slapped him on the shoulder. "Shūnen-senpai, it's okay, Obito is so weak that he definitely can't be a bad guy!"

Obito staggered, and almost drop face first into the ground. After barely stabilizing his body, he looked at Guy with resentful gaze.

Although this guy was talking for him, he couldn't be happy at all.

'Seeing that Obito has such a reliable companion, it seems that he won't be like me.' Shūnen sighed in his heart, and then beckoned, "Let's go, the Academy Festival will be held in the small forest behind the Academy."
