Chapter 109: Tenten Takes Action
Noon, at the gates of Konoha.
Team Gai’s four members gathered there.
"So..." Neji looked up at the familiar gates, a puzzled expression on his face. "Gai-sensei, why are we meeting here?"
Lee: "..."
Maito Gai thought for a moment, scratching his head, but still couldn’t figure it out.
"Ah, you’re right! Why are we here?" Gai exclaimed, as if Neji’s question had just made him realize the oddity.
Neji facepalmed, feeling like he had disgraced himself beyond redemption.
’Hyūga Clan, I’m sorry. I can’t go back.’
"Enough, you two!" Tenten shouted, stopping their antics with an exasperated glare.
(Neji: Tenten, let me explain! I wasn’t fooling around with Gai-sensei! I’m not like that!)
Unfortunately, Tenten couldn’t read minds—and even if she could, she wouldn’t bother with Neji’s right now.
