Chapter 133: A Good Deal!
🕑 Added 2021-09-05 14:22:40 +0000 UTCEverything worked out as planned, Shikamaru wanted to remove the guards anyway, yet he did not come to Hinata just to conduct friendly conversations. In another case, he could arrange taijutsu sparring here, but all this could interfere with the case. Although, having a little sister was not included in the plan. Either way, she wasn't that much of a hindrance. Only after leaving the cave, Shikamaru had already made the first few moves before leaving the village. Whether these old people like it or not, why not get these lovely beauties, like a real hunter, in whose hands knowledge and strength? Only a fool will stand aside when such opportunities exist!
With a leisurely step, Shikamaru finally approached Hinata. The girl looked all the same charming and on her pale cheeks, as usual, flaunted this pleasant blush. Lavender eyes, slender upturned nose and shiny lips. Such a lovely flower of the Hyuuga family!
Shikamaru was almost two heads taller than Hinata, and Hanabi was even more so. Winking at the little girl, the guy asked:
- Beauty, can you leave me and my little sister alone?
Even though this little girl was only five years old, even Shikamaru was surprised by her intelligent look. After the question, Hanabi chuckled oddly.
- Brother, you are so brave, are you not afraid that my father will come and punish you? Uncle Hiari must guard us, and you beat him so brutally ...
Shikamaru glanced at Hinata, who blushed slightly and turned away. With a small laugh, the guy turned back to Hanabi.
- So you liked it?
- What I liked?
“The way I beat that uncle of yours. Did you like it?
The girl giggled and nodded:
- Why, he didn't even have time to squeak as you beat him. I haven’t been taught how to fight like that! Hanabi glanced at her older sister and turned to Shikamaru with a sparkle in her eyes.
- Big brother, if you teach Hanabi this technique, you can immediately pick up your older sister!
- Wh-what ?! Hinata finally let out a surprised scream, then sharply covered her mouth with her hand, blushing up to her neck.
Hanabi was clearly many times bolder than her older sister, because she just shrugged her shoulders:
- So what? He came to you, so you’ll chat, I won’t tell my father and I’ll even make my uncle shut up. - in her last words, a playful spark flashed in the girl's sly eyes. She knew exactly what to do.
Shikamaru finally looked up from the embarrassed Hinata's cute looks and turned to Hanabi.
“I’m going on a mission, and when I come back, I’ll teach you Taijutsu super techniques.” Trust me, no one in the clan will be your equal.
- Even your sister?
Shikamaru rubbed his beard thoughtfully, then finally nodded decisively.
- If you train hard like your sweet little sister, then you can surpass her too!
Hinata let out a strange squeak, which attracted two pairs of sly eyes from the chatting couple. But then both turned away at once. The girl rubbed her nose thoughtfully, then finally nodded.
- Okay! But remember, Hanabi has a good memory, don't look that I'm four years old, if you don't keep your word, you won't see your little sister, do you understand me ?!
The way the little girl spoke to him didn't take offense to Shikamaru. He was rather even glad, so he simply held out his hand:
- Than that's a deal. You and your sister in exchange for tech.
Hanabi giggled happily and carelessly shook Shikamaru's hand, only a moment later, the smile faded from her face.
- Wait ... you said ...
Shikamaru raised a questioning eyebrow.
- You don't want two strong technicians?
- Two? - Hanabi's eyebrows suddenly tightened, she puffed out her cheeks and, trying to think about something, she began to nod very slowly:
- Okay ... I'll believe you this time. - turning around, the girl, still arriving in a strange reverie, began to leave, paying absolutely no attention to the road. Halfway through, she suddenly stopped, turned her head and fixed a suspicious gaze on the grinning Shikamaru. Then she turned away and with a brisk step walked out of the range, straight towards the head of the clan's residence.
The two were finally alone. When Hinata finally realized that there were only two of them left, she blushed again and turned away.
Shikamaru wasn't embarrassed at all. He took a step towards Hinata, grabbed her and turned her towards him, and then pressed her against the training stump. The girl was definitely not expecting something like this, her eyes trembled, and her breathing went astray, especially when she realized what position she was in. Like a little rabbit, Hinata huddled into the collar of her jacket, trying to hide herself somehow. Shikamaru looked down at her with his piercing eyes. Both of his hands were on each side of the girl's head and did not give her a chance to escape. Just about to pass out from it all, Hinata firmly clenched her fists and met his confident gaze. She remembered - you can't give up, no matter how scary and embarrassing, you had to fight, because she is a ninja, and it was he who taught her this ...
Hinata just couldn't utter a word, but her whole appearance and face spoke for her, as always. Shikamaru ran a predatory glance down her pretty face with a smile and whispered:
“You got stronger, I thought you'd hide, faint or pretend. - Examining her clenched fists, the guy let out a chuckle and pulled away. He felt that she was at the limit, if he now even scatters in compliments or even tries to touch, it all ends before it starts, and leaving her here unconscious would not be the best idea.
Therefore, when Shikamaru took a step away from the girl, Hinata finally exhaled and averted her trembling eyes. She continued to be silent, not daring to ask a question and find out the reason why he came here. Hinata didn't even know why this was happening to her. She hadn’t seen him for so long - she simply couldn’t see him, and now he is here, and his heart is beating so hard and there are no words to talk ... There is no strength to even start ...
Shikamaru hadn't really hoped for such a reaction. He helped her in the past and then again in class. Since then, no one approached her and did not offend her. He was still different then, but he still made those bullies fear and tremble at the mere mention of Hinata's name. She needed confidence and she could only earn it as a result of her own victories. She must be ready to stand up for herself and not rely on others.
It was he who taught her this then, during that first meeting in the park, Shikamaru changed a lot in this kind girl. But he really influenced her the day she was able to fight back the offenders. She was alone, she knew that he was watching and waiting for her actions. A strong spirit awakened much earlier than it should have, it turned out - she only lacked a moment of support. Since then, Hinata has a little more confidence in himself. She began to train even though she was tired. Now she just wanted to become strong, able to defend herself and maybe not even disappoint him ... After all, he was so strong and almost unattainable ... All this allowed Hinata to get closer to her sister, be more determined with her father and get the first lessons on the secret techniques of the clan two years ago. Even so, she is still not sure of defeating Neji.
