Chapter 83 Akali Assembles the 12 Bronze Saints
So, the Sand Ninja left, the Jonin left, and Akali, who had just caused a big stir, was now free to relax.
Looking at the Jonin who had all left in an instant, Sasuke looked somewhat bewildered: "That's it? That's it?"
"Huh! What else?" Akali rolled her eyes at Sasuke.
"..." Sasuke fell silent.
Clearly, he still couldn't quite understand it, mainly because Akali had caused such a commotion, yet nothing happened in the end, which was a bit strange.
Akali patted Sasuke on the shoulder and said earnestly, "So that's the advantage of being strong, understand?"
"Moreover, compared with the intelligence I gathered, the damage to the streets is nothing more than a matter of finding an Earth Release ninja to handle."
"..." Sasuke remained silent.
After the Jonin left, the others also came over.
"Akali, you're amazing!" Konohamaru looked at Akali with sparkling eyes.
"I hereby declare that, from today onwards, Akali is the sole designated leader of my Konohamaru Legion!"
"Hey, what about me?"
Naruto's eyes widened in disbelief; he never expected that Konohamaru, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, would betray the revolution so easily.
"Uh..." Konohamaru was a little embarrassed: "Of course, Naruto is still the big brother of our Konohamaru Legion, but compared to Akali, he is obviously not as good!"
With that, Konohamaru became self-righteous: "Who told the eldest sister to defeat the enemy in the end, not the eldest brother!"
"But I also contributed, okay!" Naruto argued with Konohamaru.
Seeing his childish appearance, Akali could only shake her head helplessly.
"Alright, alright, Konohamaru, your brother Naruto, Sasuke, and I have something to discuss. Kurenai and the others will definitely talk to the Third Hokage about you, so you should go back now!"
"Yes, Big Sister!" Konohamaru nodded, then stomped away.
Then Sakura also said goodbye to Akali: "Shall I go first too?"
"Wait!" Akali grabbed Sakura's arm.
Meeting Sakura's questioning gaze, Akali said, "You guys have been doing missions for a while now, so you should have some spare money... No, I mean, you'll be participating in the Chunin Exams, right?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, not only your Class 7, but also our Class 8 and Ino's Class 10 will participate."
"So?" Sakura didn't quite understand Akali's meaning.
"What I mean is, I just got some money coming in, so let me treat everyone to a meal!"
"By the way, also collect your mission reports... I mean, pass on that guy's information, so that no one gets hurt by accident!"
[Ding! Sakura's emotional value +999!]
"..." Sakura looked at Akali helplessly.
What she meant by sharing intelligence was that Akali was saying, "You guys got paid for your missions, so I'm going to take back your mission rewards!"
Don't assume she's hard of hearing and didn't hear you! (Annoyed!)
However, despite Akali's blatant motives, Sakura didn't seem to mind.
Her money is her money. Akali can't possibly set up a trap and rob them of their money, can she?
Coincidentally, after completing missions for over a month, Sakura was also eager to meet her other classmates, and she was also very curious about how Sasuke, Naruto, and Akali were connected.
“If Akali can call anyone else, that’s fine!” Sakura agreed.
"Of course we can call others. Isn't Sasuke right here?"
Akali's words left Sakura speechless once again.
Because Ino is such a fangirl, if Sasuke were to participate, he could probably trick his teammates into joining too!
"Sigh!" Sakura sighed and fell silent.
Just then, Hinata and Shino arrived, holding the Chunin Exams application form that Kurenai Yuhi had given her.
With the Byakugan and the Parasite Bug, two powerful tools for finding people, as well as the True Sights Akali placed throughout Konoha.
Under the pretext of sharing intelligence on a formidable enemy and incidentally exchanging feelings.
Kiba Inuzuka's Team 1, along with Teams 7, 8, 10, and the previous Team 2, all gathered at a barbecue restaurant in Konoha.
Shikamaru was shocked to see that Akali had single-handedly gathered together geniuses, troublemakers, and rich girls like Uchiha Sasuke, Hyuga Neji, Inuzuka Kiba, Naruto, and Hinata.
"So, our year's No. 1 and leader is Akali, who's completely unremarkable at school?"
"What NO.1 and leader?"
Choji, standing to the side, didn't quite understand what his friend was saying.
"Nothing much, is the barbecue good?"
"Delicious!" Choji grabbed a handful of skewers and held them high, shouting, "Akali, the best!"
"See? That's exactly what I meant!"
Shikamaru shrugged.
Making Choji happy sounds simple, but it's actually quite difficult for them.
After all, Choji only had one standard for satisfaction: being full.
They're all recent graduates, whose wallet can afford Choji's meals?
But that's not the most terrifying thing about Akali.
Rather, it was her ability to get the proud and arrogant Sasuke to sit down and to keep Naruto from causing trouble. Furthermore, Kiba Inuzuka, having raised dogs for many years, had picked up some canine, or rather, wolf-like, traits.
That is, in a wolf pack, there must be a wolf king. If the wolf king is not strong enough, then he will become aggressive. But even Kiba Inuzuka did not say much to Akali, and Akamaru was still allowed to be kneaded and flattened by Akali.
The fact that some of the senses of animals are more sensitive than those of humans speaks volumes!
As for Hyuga Neji, Shikamaru doesn't know much about the previous No. 1, but from what he's observed, he's also a proud person, yet he's acting very calmly at this moment.
and……
Shikamaru looked at Hinata next to Akali with a puzzled expression.
Hinata wore a friendly smile and took meticulous care of everyone. Her aura made her seem like the second organizer of the banquet.
Is this really the Hinata from the past?
Is this the change Akali brought about?
Shikamaru didn't understand and was greatly shocked.
[Ding! Shikamaru's emotional value +999!]
"Hmm?" Akali's attention was suddenly drawn to Shikamaru's emotional state.
Akali frowned slightly as she watched Shikamaru sitting surreptitiously to the side, glancing here and there.
What is Shikamaru thinking about now?
Although she didn't know what he was thinking, Akali decided to try to distract him.
"Ahem!" Holding a glass of juice, Akali stood up, signaling that everyone's eyes were on her, as she had something to announce.
"Huh?" Everyone looked over after Akali's statement.
Akali smiled slightly: "Actually, the reason I called everyone here this time wasn't just to share information about that Sand Ninja, but also to strengthen our bonds."
"Actually, there are some things I want to share with you all!"
As she spoke, Akali placed items such as red potion, three kinds of potions, and even the Everlasting Will sandwich cookies and Poro cookies on the table.
