165 Chapter 165: Hinata's Appetite Secrets

As a girl with a peculiar thought process, Sakura was actually seriously considering this question. However, just three seconds later, Sakura snapped back to reality and her face instantly turned red.

Marry Natsuo-aniki, so she can later marry Sasuke? What kind of absurd idea is this!

"What the hell am I thinking!" she exclaimed. "Forget it! Forget it all!"

She slapped her own cheeks as if the rosy color on her face was caused by her own slaps, rather than natural embarrassment.

This attracted the attention of countless people.

"What is Sakura doing?"

"I don't know, probably complaining about some weird things again."

"She still wants to compete with me for Sasuke like this?"

Ino, Shikamaru, Kiba, and others looked at her with strange eyes. Only Choji remained focused on his goal as always.

"Ah, Chef, the meat looks good. Please give me ten servings, thank you."

Natsuo as always, lived a quiet life even after becoming the strongest in the ninja world. He continued to work hard to revive the Uchiha clan, spending his days with his wives and children.

However, no matter how peaceful his life may be, the reputation of being the strongest in the ninja world should never be underestimated.

After a while, Naruto came over and said sneakily: "Natsuo-aniki, Natsuo-aniki."

"Hmm?" Natsuo looked over.

"How about becoming my teacher?" Naruto's eyes were full of excitement. "Since we're graduating, we need a teacher... Natsuo-aniki, why don't you teach us?"

Natsuo blinked his eyes. "Who are you referring to?"

"Of course it's me, the number one person in the Ninja School, and Sasuke, who always lags behind, and Sakura." Naruto said confidently. "Don't worry, we'll definitely be the best students! We'll listen obediently!"

"With you around, we'll definitely be able to complete the most difficult missions on the battlefield and become the most shining stars of Konoha!" Naruto said, holding onto Natsuo's thigh with a pleading expression.

Natsuo's mouth twitched. "Never mind when you became the number one in the school, but when did Sasuke become a laggard..."

"I don't want to go to the battlefield." Natsuo casually said. "I just came back from there. What's the use of killing so many people? Can you give me some girls?"

"You have your own teacher, I don't want to accompany kids on missions." Natsuo waved his hand. "It's too troublesome."

"Do you know who our teacher is, Natsuo-aniki?" Sasuke walked over and asked curiously. Unlike Naruto, he had known for a long time that it was impossible for Natsuo to be his teacher. With his personality it is impossible for him to leave Konoha.

Even if Natsuo was willing, Sasuke wouldn't be. What would happen to the Uchiha's revival if he didn't work hard? Did they not need new blood for the clan anymore? As for the selection of the teacher...

It is naturally confidential to the students, but for high-ranking and influential ninjas who want to know the teachers of their own children, it is really simple.

Not only the team leader, but also the selection of teammates assigned by the Hokage in principle, the wishes of high-level ninjas will also be an important reference.

Privilege is everywhere.

"I know, he is considered a master, and he can easily rank in the top five in Konoha..." Natsuo casually said. "He is the direct disciple of the Fourth Hokage back then."

Of course, it is Kakashi!

Kakashi has connections to Naruto's father and Sasuke's clan. His own strength is also reliable. Although he is not yet at the level of Kage, he has grown a lot in this Shinobi World War. He belongs to the top-level ninja of Konoha.

But Naruto and Sasuke, who have a broader vision, don't think highly of Kakashi.

"Not even second place in the top five?" Sasuke's expression was a bit unfriendly, and Naruto also looked disappointed.

We were taught by the strongest ninja in the ninja world, Natsuo. The gap is really too big.

The two unanimously decided to simply follow Kakashi and carry out the missions. If they have time, they will have to invite Natsuo to teach. How can Kakashi compare to Natsuo?

"What about teammates? Who are my teammates?" Sasuke asked.

"You and Naruto and Sakura." Natsuo doesn't want to change this iron triangle combination.

The other teams have changed. Ino-Shika-Cho has been separated directly. Hinata has joined Ino after the separation, and Tenten, who volunteered to lead a team on the front line, has been transferred. This forms a new combination.

Originally, Tsunade did not plan to split up Ino-Shika-Cho, but she couldn't refuse when Neji volunteered.

Although he is young, Neji possesses the Hyuga clan's bloodline secret technique, knowledge gained from training with Natsuo, and strength surpassing that of a Jonin. He is more than capable of being an excellent team leader.

Especially after Neji stood up against the Kiri shinobi, displaying a strong personality, his prestige in Konoha has further increased. Because of this and Natsuo's support, Tsunade agreed to give in to his request...

As for why Neji insists on bringing three girls on his team with him...

Neji is a clever person. He even wants to marry his cousin Hinata and Hanabi to Natsuo. Would he be afraid of getting more 'disciples'?

However, when Natsuo mentioned the team assignments. Sakura's eyes lit up.

Ino let out a sigh, but immediately felt lucky. Although the Ino-Shika-Cho trio has natural coordination and a level of trust that surpasses others, she really doesn't want to be with Shikamaru, who is always complaining, and Choji, who is constantly eating!

As for Naruto...

"How wonderful!" Naruto immediately became excited.

Although he had tasted sweetness at the club more than once, Sakura was still his first love. He wasn't as obsessed as before, but being on the same team with her was obviously a good thing.

Sasuke, on the other hand, frowned and looked dissatisfied at Sakura.

"Sakura, don't hold me back."

Naruto was one thing, although he couldn't beat him, he was indeed not weak. But what was Sakura? Coming from a common family, she was below average in any ninjutsu, genjutsu, or taijutsu. Her theoretical knowledge was strong, but can theory kill enemies?

Sakura's smile froze. "Sasuke, I..."

Natsuo sighed lightly. "No, Sasuke, you underestimate Sakura too much."

"I always thought Sakura was a hidden talent. Her talent should not be underestimated, right, Sakura?"

As he spoke, he rubbed Sakura's head with one hand, his eyes shining. Sakura was also a genius.

Despite her unpleasant character of being alone thinking about love, she was the only kunoichi among the protagonists of the Naruto Series who kept up with Naruto in the final stages.

Upon hearing this, Sakura felt somewhat moved. She didn't know her own talent, but she knew how much Sasuke despised her.

Naruto may welcome her on the surface, but in reality, she doesn't like the idea that she is just a teammate without any strength.

What Natsuo recognizes is her own potential.

"Yes! Natsuo-aniki!" Sakura is energized. "I will work hard!"

Sasuke furrows his brow, not thinking that Sakura plays any significant role. But since Natsuo spoke, he casually said to Sakura: "I understand. So, Sakura, work hard to become stronger."

"It doesn't matter if you can't get stronger. Regardless of the teammate, it won't affect my performance."

Sasuke, as always, confident.

Not far away...

"Hinata-sama, please have this." Neji presented the freshly grilled meat from the chef and handed it over.

"Thank you, Neji-nii-san." Hinata's face blushed slightly as she silently accepted it. "But I can do this myself."

"No, this is also my duty." Neji smiled and said: "Natsuo-sama told me that he feels like you've always seemed hungry, so he specifically asked me to have the chef prepare more for you..."

"Hinata-sama, in the Uchiha clan, you can eat to your heart's content and enjoy a good meal."

Upon hearing this, Hinata's face blushed, showing both shyness and embarrassment.

As a top noble family in Konoha, the Hyuga clan has always upheld aristocratic etiquette. They don't speak while eating and have several procedures for every meal.

Hinata, who has been reminded since childhood 'not to eat too quickly, not to eat too much, as it goes against etiquette', has always been in a state of not being able to eat enough. Not because of the lack of food in the Hyuga clan, but because Hinata is a hidden big eater.

Konoha once held an Ichiraku Ramen eating contest, with a time limit of thirty minutes. Naruto, who loves ramen the most, ate thirty bowls.

Yamato, however, overwhelmed Naruto with a score of thirty-one bowls. But what surprised everyone was that Hinata won overwhelmingly with forty-six bowls, completely surpassing both of them.

Even though Ichiraku Ramen held eating contests multiple times in the future, with even participants like Akimichi Choji and his father, the most anyone could eat was around forty-two bowls.

Hinata was also known as the 'Queen of Big Eaters'!

However, forty-six bowls were not actually Hinata's true capacity. After all, the time limit was thirty minutes, and this time she wasn't intentionally restricting herself.

With this capacity, the Hyuga clan, which demands high table manners, naturally couldn't meet Hinata's needs.

So some people have said that Hinata actually had amazing talent, but unfortunately, the rigid rules of the Hyuga clan limited her development...

However, Hinata's face turned red. Eating so much clearly didn't conform to her education.

"Even Neji-nii knows..."

Steam rose from her head.

Hinata struggled hard, trying to salvage her ladylike image. "Um, Neji-nii, actually, what Natsuo heard was just a rumor. I'm a delicate girl, how could I eat so much?"

Neji: "Natsuo-sama said that when you come to the Uchiha's, just relax as if you're at home. Don't be polite... If you're polite, it means you treat him as an outsider."

Hinata: "Even delicate girls can't give up their pursuit of good food, Neji-nii, please help me ask the chef to grill three more servings."

Neji stood there dumbfounded, taking a while to react. "..." He quickly ran to the chef's area, but after taking three steps, he couldn't help but turn back. Hinata-sama...

Is something not right?

...

"Natsuo! Come and try this!" Temari ran over quickly. "This is something I personally did... Here, ah~~~" Saying that, with an eager expression, she picked up a piece of roast meat and brought it to Natsuo's mouth.

Natsuo, of course, didn't hesitate and took a bite.

"Is it delicious?"

"It's quite tasty."

"Hehe... That's great!" Temari's face immediately lit up with a smile, her cheeks slightly blushing. "I've been practicing for a long, long time to master the perfect cooking time..."

"If Natsuo says it's delicious, then my efforts weren't in vain." Saying that, she twisted her body slightly and giggled as she ran off. "Then I'll grill another portion for you! This one will definitely be even more delicious!"

The whole process was full of enthusiasm!

Natsuo: "..." Is this still the stunning Temari? What have you done, Rasa...

But... Acknowledging Rasa's efforts, Natsuo said in his mind: 'Very well done Rasa!'

Although many people may not like the excessive enthusiasm and find it strange, but that is mainly due to the overly artificial tone and unnatural way of speaking.

But as the leader of a village, Rasa obviously had a large amount of manpower and resources and successfully raised Temari to be perfect in all aspects.

Although it may not seem like a good adjective, actually experiencing Temari's enthusiasm feels really refreshing.

On the other side...

Neji was just getting his fifth serving of grilled meat from the chef.

Don't misunderstand, the meaning of Hinata's 'three more servings' is not that she can only eat three servings.

It's because the meat won't taste good once it gets cold, so before the meat cools down, she can only eat three servings.

So...

Eat and then get more!

Neji has already made five trips back and forth, each time with three servings of meat. Neji was already numb.

"So Hinata's talent may really be very strong. Look at how she suppresses her appetite on a daily basis!"

With such a huge appetite, even if Hinata can secretly buy some food outside to replenish her energy, it is obvious that most of the time she will be in a 'hungry' state.

However, even in this starved state, he can still maintain his current strength… Neji was surprised as he pondered in his mind. 'Could it be that Hinata is the strongest genius in the Hyuga clan?'
