Currently, Li Zhenwu was dressed in an outfit uniquely made for him by his parents, which matched the style of Master Roshi's clothing from his previous life— a tradition being passed down.
His outfit was orange, with short sleeves revealing part of his chest, cinched at the waist with a blue belt, and a black character for 'Wu' printed on the left side of his chest.
"Alright then." Seeing he couldn't persuade Li Zhenwu, Guy Sensei quickly gave in: "Let's just go and feel the youth together! Off we go!"
The two of them started running, with Guy Sensei leading the way and Li Zhenwu following closely beside him.
At the beginning, running felt easy for Li Zhenwu; he wasn't out of breath and still had the energy to chat.
"Guy Sensei, how did things go yesterday? What happened with the remaining Hidden Cloud Ninjas? Were they driven away?"
The envoy from the Land of Lightning had come with a small team; the Hidden Cloud Ninjas who were killed and defeated yesterday were only part of them, but one was a representative from the envoy.
"Don't worry; the village will handle it," Guy Sensei answered formally.
Li Zhenwu secretly frowned at this answer, feeling dissatisfied.
But he was aware that as a mere child, not being taken seriously was to be expected.
In the original story, the Hidden Cloud Ninja attempted to kidnap Hinata Hyuga but ended up dead.
However, the next day, the Land of Lightning and the Cloud Village immediately protested, claiming that the Hyuga clan had unjustly killed their envoy and demanding the execution of the killer, Hyuga Hiashi, or they would threaten war with the Leaf Village.
To protect his family and village, Hyuga Hiashi's brother, Hyuga Hizashi—father of Hyuga Neji—stepped forward to take the blame and sacrificed his life, leading to the tragic fate of Neji in later events.
The tragedy stemmed from Konoha's inaction and the lack of evidence left when Hyuga Hiashi killed the rogue Hidden Cloud Ninja.
Now, with Li Zhenwu's presence in this world, and considering that yesterday his loud shout of "the Hidden Cloud Ninja attacked the village" was heard by half the village, it was uncertain whether events would unfold like in the original story.
Seeing he wouldn't get much from Guy Sensei, Li Zhenwu didn't mind.
In any case, if he wanted to know how things would progress, he could simply wait quietly!
On one hand, he could observe whether Hyuga Hizashi would still go through with his suicide to take the blame, and on the other, watch the village's movements.
While watching Naruto in his previous life, Li Zhenwu found himself frustrated because Konoha seemed to lack principles and integrity during this incident, compromising just because of the threats from the Land of Lightning.
If it were up to Li Zhenwu, they wouldn't be so cowardly.
Without hesitation, he would take direct action!
As he ran alongside Guy Sensei, Li Zhenwu found his thoughts drifting.
