Chapter 35:

"I have a question." One of the ninjas took off his mask and took a step forward, revealing his face. This man looks plain, but his eyes are particularly obvious-byakugan! This ninja is from the Hyuga clan.

"Hyuga Sora, what's your question?" Konoha white fang frowned and asked.

Akira's heart moved slightly, there are actually people from the Hyuga clan in Anbu, but this is also reasonable. The Hyuga clan is also Konoha's noble and famous clan and there must be their people in places like Anbu.

The ninja named Sora glanced at Akira, and seemed to be very hostile towards Akira.

Akira frowned and vaguely understood something.

Since the death of the second hokage, the number of senju clan members has gradually decreased. The Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan became Konoha's two biggest clans, Konoha's first and second clan. Naturally, there are a lot of competition between the two clans, and the relationship was a bit tense.

In addition, Akira had also taught both Hyuga Hizashi and Hyuga Hiashi a lesson in the ninja academy. Hiashi bloodline is from the main branch of the clan and is the person who may inherit the position of huyga clan patriarch in the future. This made most members of the Hyuga clan hostile to Akira.

It seems the same is true for sora in front of me.

"Captain, I don't think Uchiha Akira has the qualifications to be an anbu." Sora stood up and stared at Akira.

Akira raised his eyebrows, while the others were slightly taken aback. They all looked at Akira and then at Sora

There was a faint spark in the air and the atmosphere was tense.

"The reason?" Konoha white fang asked lightly.

"Captain, the execution of Anbu's mission is very dangerous, and we don't know how strong Akira is. After all, he is only nine years old. I think we should evaluate his strength before making a decision? Otherwise, if he drags down the entire anbu because of him, wouldn't it affect the trust third hokage for anbu?" Sora did not shy away from the question and said directly.

What he said seemed reasonable, but everyone could clearly see that he was targeting Akira.

If he weren't deliberately targeting Akira, there is Minato beside Akira who came with him but why didn't he question Minato but only aimed at Akira, which is enough to explain the problem.

Akira squinted his eyes, of course he know that Sora is targeting him.

Is he really a soft persimmon that can be squash easily?

Akira doesn't have much ill feelings towards Hyuga's clan and of course, he doesn't have much liking. The last time he did it purely because of Kushina, but Sora who took the initiative to target him, had made Akira feel a little bit unhappy.

He had been purposely provoked by Sora, won't he be angry?

"Then In your opinion, what do you think I should do to prove my strength?" Akira asked lightly.

Seeing Akira picking up the conversation, Sora was overjoyed that he took the bait, and said: "Akira, although you are called a genius by many people in the village, we haven't seen your strength personally after all. So I can't be sure how strong you are. Why don't you have a match with me to verify your strength. What do you think?"

Akira curled his lips in distain, so predictable, using the same set of trick.

Several members of anbu in the room shook their heads. They have seen the strength of Sora. His strength is a solid jounin level, coupled with the aid of his byakugan, his strength is stronger than average jounin but not as good as elite jounin.

As for Akira, the village was saying that Akira killed a jounin, but after all, it was just a statement, and they had never seen Akira's strength so they were somewhat susceptible.

In the eyes of these anbu members, the request made by Sora was a bit too much. After all, Sora is a senior Anu member and has the byakugan. How could Akira be an opponent?

"Akira, don't agree, he deliberately wants to deal with you!" Minato whispered beside Akira.

Akira smiled, but shrugged indifferently and he looked at Sora while saying, "Hyuga Sora right, it's okay for me to compete with you. If I lose, then I will withdraw from Anbu and never mention to join anbu ever again."

"Good, you deserve to be from Uchiha's clan, so decisive!" Sora smiled and clapped his palms, he was happy in his heart. He was waiting for Akira's words! Hyuga clan and Uchiha clan compete with each other and the anbu directly under hokage is one of the most trusted people of hokage and it is of course best to eliminate the Uchiha clan.

Akira squinted his eyes: "But what if you lose?"

"If I lose…" Sora was speechless for a while.

"Why not, for the sake of fairness, we two will try a game and decide who will win or lose. The winner stays in anbu while the loser leaves, what do you think?" Akira narrowed his eyes Sora.

"This…" Sora hesitated. Although he is confident that he can win Akira, however the one who lose will have to withdraw from Anbu. This bet is too big, making him hesitant.

Akira shook his head: "You don't even dare to do this, forget it, it seems that the Hyuga clan is nothing more than that, a coward."

Akira use this is a simple but effective provocation method. Thinking of the honor of the Hyuga clan, Sora gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, I promised! Please everyone present will be witnesses, if I lose this test I will withdraw from anbu. Uchiha Akira, so will you!"

"No problem." Akira shrugged.

Seeing how things had turned into this, Konoha white fang frowned, but he could only nod and agree: "Okay, we will be witnesses."

"Akira, the other party is a jounin of the Hyuga clan, you have to be careful of his byakugan…" Minato reminded.

"Don't worry." Akira patted Minato on the shoulder, his eyes serious as he stared at Sora

Akira and Sora were both standing in the field, and the others all retreated to give them room to fight.

"Akira, you are sure to lose! I will let you know what your so called title as Uchiha genius is just a joke! Your sharingan are far inferior to the byakugan of our Hyuga clan!" Sora sneered.

"Really? Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you don't do your best, you will be beaten into a pig head by me." Akira said lightly.

A intense battle is about to start! (The anbu, Sakumo and Minato POV)
