As I'm looking over more of the items in the store the doors wind chime whistles, signaling a new customer. A boy with fair skin and long black hair. A beige-colored shirt, a dull blue shirt beneath that, and mesh armor beneath that. Blue shinobi sandals, and wrapped bandages around his right arm, chest, and right leg. He tied his hair back in a loose ponytail tied a few inches above the end. He wore a black forehead protector, under which was a smaller headband with two straps that frame the sides of his face. With White Lavender eyes.
I could feel the boy's eyes stare at my back while I inspect the swords. The Uchiha in me would just not care about commoners looking at me as its normal. But eventually it gets too annoying.
"Hey, you over there what's your name!" says the boy
I turn around and to my surprise I see none other than Neji Hyūga. My second favorite Hyūga, shout out adult Hinata. Now that I think about it Hyūga's all have similar faces with their scary eyes. Okay now I really want to see what their clan looks like, from what I remember if even the tomboy adult Hanabi turned out attractive then their clan walls might look like a paradise. I should really try using my Uchiha charm to lure Hyuga woman from the branch house, seeing how Hyūga's don't know how to flirt plus I can do them a solid, and get that slave tag off them since Naruto forgot to do it. I'm brought out of my thoughts by someone I really didn't want to talk to.
"Hey weakling didn't you hear what I just said." Says Neji
"Huh did you say something?" I say with an ice smile trying to impersonate my teacher.
My annoyance tactic seemed to work as I could feel the tick mark form on the pale boys face. "Hey, you're a rookie, aren't you? You know for the last of your weak clan you sure are arrogant." retorts Neji.
"Weak?" My face instantly darkens when I hear this. Its like a part of me flared to life, like nothing I've felt before. 'Is this the original Sasuke's anger? Is this pride?'
"Yes, you heard me. Weak. I don't know how your weak clan was ever compared to the mighty Hyūga clan. If all it took was one person to wipe them all out. The Byakugan vs Sharingan isn't even a debate, it's always been obvious who's dojutsu was superior."
He's right about that its quite obvious which one is better but the fact he's trying to paint it as the byakugan being better is just crazy. Even if this comes from a person who's aware of the walking turd that is Boruto. There should still be some old people in the village from the days of the second hokage who know of the existence of the Mangekeo Sharingan.
I like how you just said that with a straight face as if it wasn't the most craziest statement you could have made. If the byakugan is so great then how many Kage level Shinobi has the Hyuga clan produced, because I can name three from my clan in the last decade.
'And don't try and mention your clan head being just as strong because if that was the cased, he'd never let the Hokage pressure your clan and allow them to kill his brother.' I think this last part in my mind as I feel it might be too harsh to say to a boy I just met. Plus, this guy is gonna die before getting to know what adult Tenten's walls feel like, its a damn shame she's left alone in Boruto. Truly a fucking waste of a life. Sasuke shakes his head like the world did the greatest injustice, muttering how its a damn shame.
But Sasuke has no problem continuing with some lighter jabs this. "So, how's your head doing, feel any headaches lately?"
"I'm sure your head must be sore from wrapping it in bandages every day, why not let it breathe and get some air."
"Maybe you should think about wearing some makeup on that giant forehead of yours, maybe then you'd feel comfortable walking around in your own skin."
The shop's atmosphere becomes tense, with no one speaking for a couple of moments, were the two young prodigies standing a few feet apart. The wind rustled, as Genin level of killing intent already started crackling between them like a coming storm.
Sasuke Uchiha stood with his hands in his pockets, his usual indifferent smirk playing on his lips. Across from him, Neji Hyūga's arms were folded, his pale lavender eyes analyzing the Uchiha with quiet intensity.
Neji's eye twitched. "Typical. An arrogant attitude backed by nothing but a bloodline. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised."
Sasuke smirked. "Says the guy who talks about fate like it's the only thing that matters. Sounds like an excuse for being second place."
Neji's eyes narrowed, but he didn't rise to it. "Fate determines everything. You can't escape your limits."
Sasuke scoffed. "That's funny, coming from someone who's already hit his, you already peaked little bro."
That did it. Neji's composure cracked just slightly, but he exhaled sharply, keeping his frustration in check. "Is that so? Then why don't we put it to the test?" Byakugan! Neji activates his clans coveted dojutsu.
Internally I don't think I could beat him as of now, but I can't look weak when the hoes are present. But on a side note, it's just way too much fun messing with him. Naruto has a multitude of different characters with backgrounds, personalities but every character has at least one thing in common. That being that everyone in this show is a literal crashout if you make fun of the one thing they hold dear. I understand that this is some psychopath behavior, the textbook example of chaotic neutral. I just love instigating for the love of the game.
Sasuke rolled his shoulders lazily, acting as if he was barely interested. "Woah. Didn't take much to get under your skin, huh? Maybe I overestimated you."
Neji clenched his fists. He had never met someone who irritated him this quickly. "You act like you're untouchable, but let's see how that Uchiha pride holds up when you're in the hospital."
Sasuke closes his eyes, his smirk fading into something sharper, more dangerous. Until finally he opened his eyes to revealing two tomoe's in his right eye and one in his left, the Sharingan! "Careful, Hyūga. Getting ahead of yourself just means you'll fall harder." Honestly, I just wanted to try this to see if it'd work, and once again the instigating gods didn't disappoint me. In the original Naruto story Sasuke awakened his Sharingan on the bridge in the wave arc. But this isn't the case as on the night of the massacre his Sharingan appeared but was sealed away until he proved he had the chakra to use it. So, knowing this all I need to do in theory is push chakra to my eyes.
Neji glared at him, his Byakugan activating instinctively. This was no longer just words—he wanted to fight.
Sasuke noticed the change and let out a short chuckle. "You really wanna do this here?" His Sharingan spun to life, a clear challenge. "Fine. Just don't start whining when you lose."
Neji's fists tightened. With him about to take off at the boy until a voice stops them.
"Hey brats! If your gonna fight I suggest you do it somewhere else before I call the anbu on your little narrowed asses. I'm not having you egotistical spoiled children reck my family's store!" Yells
Both boys turn to the angry store cashier Ms. Inaho, forgetting she was in the room. 'Oh yeah I forgot she was even here.' Sasuke internally muses.
Sasuke deactivates his Sharingan, putting his hands back in his pockets, putting on his face of indifference. Seemingly uninterested in the fight. "Yeah, she's right I'd be doing a month's worth of D-ranks, with no pay, it's not worth. Sorry about that Inaho-san."
At the mention of the punishment being a month worths of D-ranks even Neji can't help but shiver, not wanting to recall the bucket incident that his team agreed on never mentioning as long as they live.
Neji seemingly gains is composure, turning around and walking out the store, saying nothing. Still this wasn't over. Not even close.
I make sure to buy my items, then go to cut down The Sakura, who still sported a black eye like a dalmatian, a partial nip slip, and a face tattoo that read Inaho's bitch on her giant forehead. Buy her some clothes as this was partly my fault. Afterwards Sakura purchases her weapons, and we leave the store.
The girl would normally pester me further but after what happened to her she doesn't have the confidence to look me in the eye let alone cling to me. 'Poor girl, she's had a rough day.'
