I Can’t Use Chakra - Chapter 22 Team Guy

Kira walked quietly along the roads of Konoha. It’s been a week since Kira received the letter.

During that week, Kira trained even more. After reading the letter, Kira was even more determined to stay strong.

“I’m not strong enough yet …” Kira murmured to himself.

As he walked, Kira caught sight of an old acquaintance. Kira had no friends since he’s been training, and he does not intend to do any until he’s strong enough to protect them.

Neji was walking along with Rock Lee and Tenten. When Neji caught sight of Kira, he walked toward his.

Rock Lee and Tenten followed behind Neji, but when they saw Neji approaching Kira, the two stopped moving.

Rock Lee’s eyes sparkled with combat spirit. Practically everyone in Konoha knew about Kira, and Rock Lee was no exception. He knew that, just like him, Kira could not use Genjutsu or Ninjutsu, but he never gave up and always worked hard to achieve the strength he sought.

Rock Lee also learned that Kira was strong with his swords, but did not know how strong he was. That’s why Rock Lee’s fighting spirit rose. He wanted to fight Kira, to know which of the two were stronger.

But unlike Rock Lee, Tenten stopped for a much simpler reason. Anyone with half a brain could find out by seeing how flushed his face was.

Meanwhile, Neji approached Kira. As soon as he arrived in front of Kira, without speaking a word, Neji activated his Byakugan and attacked Kira with a right punch.

Kira swerved from Neji’s blow. Even Kira did not know why Neji attacked him, Kira returned the same attack with a smile on his face.

Despite having attacked, Kira held back his strength, or he could seriously hurt Neji.

But to Kira’s surprise, Neji was able to defend himself against his blow.

“Oh? That would send a normal Chunin flying.” Kira spoke with a little surprise.

“Well, it looks like Brother Kira got stronger!” Neji said with a wry smile.

“Who are you calling brother?” Kira spoke as he quickly approached Neji and kicked him.

Neji narrowly turned away from his kick and retreated a few steps.

“Hey, why did you suddenly attack me?” Neji spoke angrily.

“That’s my question!” Kira spoke with a smile and picked up his Sakabatou.

Kira did not remove it from the scabbard, because there was no need. Kira pointed the sword at Neji and spoke with a smile.

“Next time you do that … I’ll cut off your arm.” Kira spoke with a smile.

Neji felt shivers all over his body, and he felt Kira was not joking. Rock Lee and Tenten, who watched the whole scene were shocked.

“He’s strong! Is Kira my rival?” Rock Lee thought with his fighting spirit on fire.

“Kira was so cool! Neji did not stand a chance against Kira!” Tenten thought, his face flushed.

“That … I will never do that again! Kira is so scary!” Neji thought with cold sweat running down his back.

“Y-yes, I just wanted to check how much you’ve improved. Neji spoke with slight fear, and a forced smile.

“No problem, I do not hold grudges.” Kira spoke with a smile on his face.

“Do not you keep grudges? Shameless!” That’s what happened in everyone’s mind.

“So, what are you doing?” Neji asked Kira, wanting to change the subject.

“Nothing, just walking.” Kira spoke up.

“Eh? Since you’re not doing anything, would you like to go with us?” Neji asked excitedly.

“Hm? Where are you going?” Kira asked.

“At the ninja academy, today we are going to take the exams to become a Genin, and we will see Hinata take first place in the tests.” Tenten said, even before Neji could respond.

“Oh? And how do you know Hinata will get in the first place?” Kira asked with a smile.

“That’s obvious! She trained with me!” Neji spoke proudly.

“So how do you know she’s going to get first?” Kira asked Tenten, totally ignoring Neji.

“That’s because she’s considered a child prodigy. She’s much stronger than ordinary Genins.” Tenten replied.

“Oh! Thank you.” Kira thanked her and smiled at Tenten.

“So you want to go along?” Neji asked, ignoring the fact that he was ignored.

“Of course, why not? Besides, the Old man asked me to do something at the academy.” Kira spoke up.

“So, let’s go.” Neji spoke excitedly.

None of them asked what Kira had to do at the academy. They knew that if Kira did not speak, then it was not something they should ask.

“Before that, let’s introduce ourselves. Pleasure to meet you Kira, my name is Tenten.” Tenten was introduced.

“Ah, nice to meet you, my name is Rock Lee!” Rock Lee spoke and held out his hand to Kira.

“Nice to meet you, my name is Himura Kira.” Kira squeezed Rock Lee’s hand and smiled at Tenten.

“Hey! Why when I introduce myself to you, you just ignored me?” Neji asked frustrated.

“Right! Now that we’ve introduced ourselves, can we go?” Kira asked with a smile, ignoring the existence of Neji.

Rock Lee and Tenten let out a short laugh and then the four started moving toward the academy.
