I Can Become Stronger Just By Teaching

Chapter 43: the Game Begins

In the evening, the Uchiha tribe, Obito's house.

"Obito, don't eat in such a hurry, or you might choke."

After hearing grandma's words, Obito slowed down and explained:

"Grandma, a friend invited me to play."

"Which friend? Rin?" Obito's grandma looked at Obito and asked with a smile.

Since Nohara Rin often comes to play with Obito, Obito's grandma also knows Nohara Rin.

"Yeah, but there are also others." Obito replied while eating.

Tomorrow the Junior Ninjutsu Competition will begin. He had really practiced hard all day today, and he was very tired.

Perhaps because he and Kakashi will become competitors again tomorrow, Nohara Rin invited them to hang out and relax tonight.

Because Kakashi was there, Obito also called Might Gai along.

"I'm full." After eating, Obito wiped his mouth and got ready to go out.

Grandma followed Obito to the entrance and said with a smile: "Come on, Obito, I still want to see my great-grandson."

Obito almost fell to the ground, turned around, and shouted with a blushing face: "Grandma, I'm eight!"

Although he does have thoughts in his heart, he is still too young now.

Everyone agreed to gather on the south street of the main city.

When Obito arrived, he found that the other three had already arrived, and he was the last one.

"I met an old lady who needed help on the way, so I was a little slow." Obito explained.

"It's really easy for you to meet old ladies Obito." Kakashi replied indifferently.

"I don't know why either. Anyway, when I see an old lady needing help, I can't ignore her." Obito felt a little wronged because he did help an old lady on the road.

"It's okay. Obito is probably too kind and has a pair of eyes that are good at finding those who are in need of help." Nohara Rin walked between the two of them with her hands behind her back and smiled softly.

After this little episode, the four of them walked down the street together.

"There are so many people, Kakashi, why don't we compete to see who can pass through the crowd faster." Might Gai couldn't help but ask, looking at the dense crowd on the street.

"Forgive me for refusing." Kakashi refused decisively, leaving no illusions for Might Gai. This kind of challenge was too stupid.

"There is an event held on the street here today, so many people came." Nohara Rin explained.

Then Nohara Rin led the three of them to the event venue. The whole street was full of vendors, brightly lit, and people in Yukata walked together in groups.

"Look, this goldfish is so cute." Nohara Rin found a goldfish fishing stall, smiled, and waved to everyone.

"Little girl, do you want to give it a try? You can buy a net for only ten Ryo." The stall owner said seductively.

"Ten Ryo..." Nohara Rin showed a thoughtful expression. Just ten Ryo is nothing, but a net may not be enough. This kind of paper net is too easy to break.

"I'll give it a try." Obito stepped forward and handed the boss the money.

Obito directly targeted the most active and beautiful fish. As a result, he netted it two or three times. However, not only did he fail to catch the fish, but he also broke the net.

"Again!" Obito was not discouraged and tried again, but still failed.

It wasn't until the ninth time that Nohara Rin stopped Obito and said, "Forget it, let's go shopping elsewhere."

Eighty Ryo was enough to buy a bowl of ramen.

"But I've tried it so many times and I'm more proficient than before. Wouldn't it be a shame to end it now?" Obito said hesitantly.

"I'll have some fun too." Might Gai, who had never played before, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to catch the fish with all his strength.

*Tick*

The stick broke.

"Let me do it." Kakashi said calmly, handed 10 Ryo to the boss, and caught a goldfish in the net.

"Here you go." Kakashi handed the fish packed by the boss to Nohara Rin.

Nohara Rin smiled happily and said, "Thank you, Kakashi-Kun."

Then she added, "Thank you to Obito and Gai, too."

Obito, who had a grimace on his face, instantly showed a silly smile.

The four of them then played around together, stabbing the handles with shurikens and identifying clones...

After playing until the number of people on the street gradually dwindled, they planned to buy octopus balls and go back to their respective homes.

"Kakashi, just wait and see tomorrow. I will definitely be number one this time." Obito took a bite of the octopus balls without forgetting to say harsh words.

"If you want the first-place's reward, I can get it and give it to you." Kakashi was very aggressive at this time.

The harsh words exchanged between the two made Might Gai's blood boil. If there was a junior taijutsu competition, he would definitely invite Kakashi to compete.

...

The next day, there was no school because it was Sunday and people die when they are killed.

The Junior Ninjutsu Competition was held in a commercial street in the main city of Konoha.

Obito heard that it was held by an old ninja store manager to encourage ninja school students. Later, everyone saw that it could attract traffic, so they pooled money to hold it together, and it was held every year.

"Obito, which ninjutsu are you planning to use in this competition?" Nohara Rin asked.

"The Great Fireball Jutsu." Obito didn't lie, but told Nohara Rin directly.

"Won't you use the Fire Dragon Technique that you used in the combat test?" Nohara Rin was a little puzzled.

The last time Obito lost to Kakashi, he used the Fireball Jutsu, gaining only 20 points, a full 10 points lower than Kakashi. Even though the fireball wasn't a fireball at all. Just a little bit of flame.

"This time is different from the last time. Now my fireball technique is very strong!" Obito showed a confident look. He believed that his powerful fireball could definitely shock the audience.

"Well, then I'm looking forward to your performance." Nohara Rin smiled softly.

"Obito, come on, as my old enemy, that man is not easy to defeat." Might Gai crossed his arms and said with an inscrutable look on his face.

"Kakashi, what ninjutsu are you going to use?" Nohara Rin immediately asked with a smile.

"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll probably just use the same one as the last time, the Mud Wave Jutsu." Kakashi thought for a while and said.

Obito looked around and found that he saw many acquaintances from the Ninja School, and also saw two ninjas wearing forehead protectors.

"There are a lot more people this time than last time." Obito said, recalling the last game.

"It's because the rewards have increased. The first place this time will not only get an exquisite silver-plated kunai but also a bonus of eight thousand Ryo." Nohara Rin said.

"Eight thousand Ryo!" Obito opened his eyes wide and became even more determined to win the first place.

This is eight thousand Ryo. Whether it is treating Rin to dinner or giving gifts, it is very easy.

"The game has begun, please invite contestant No. 1 to perform."
