Naruto: Reborn as Konoha's Idol

Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Curious Idol

Team 7 was also doing their daily missions today.

That’s right, even the famous konoha songstress has to do missions.

Konoha is very busy right now; Tsunade is working around the clock and hasn’t had time to teach Ino Ninjutsu. Kano, who hasn’t fully understood it herself, naturally couldn’t do it for her, otherwise, a second version of the Painful Chakra Scalpel would appear.

In her spare time between missions, Kano practiced the Yin Seal and the Strength of a Hundred Technique. However, she had previously asked if the mark of the Yin Seal could be changed in color or location, as having it directly on her face was a bit ugly.

Kano is quite vain now. Every day after dressing up, she would act cute in front of the mirror and say, ”I’m so cute!”

Tsunade replied to her, saying she wasn’t sure but it should be possible, and told her to research it herself.

Kano didn’t ask further; after all, she hadn’t even accumulated much in her Chakra pool yet, so it was too early to think about this issue.

”Sasuke, is there any girl you like?”

”Why are you suddenly asking that?”

Facing Naruto’s sudden inquiry, Sasuke was also full of vigilance.

”I’m just curious. So many girls like you, is there anyone you particularly care about?”

Since Kano liked Naruto more than Sasuke, Naruto was much less hostile towards Sasuke. His relationship with Sasuke was much better than in the anime.

”No.”

”Really none?”

”No.”

Kano was also a bit curious about who Sasuke would like, so she asked a sharp question.

”Who do you like more, Ino or Sakura?”

”Wow, Kano-chan, you really know how to ask.”

Sasuke paused for a moment, thought for a while, and still answered expressionlessly.

”Ino. Because she has a good relationship with you, and that’s it. I basically have no interaction with Sakura; we’re not close.”

”Then, is there any girl you care about more than Ino?”

Naruto’s curiosity began to act up, wanting to find out who Sasuke cared about most step by step.

”It should be Kano.”

”Eh?” ”Eh!”

Kano was also surprised that Sasuke would give such an answer. She felt truly wronged; if Ino heard Sasuke’s words, the ship of friendship might hit some waves. She hadn’t actively tried to woo Sasuke, so why did Sasuke have a good impression of her?

”Sasuke! I won’t give Kano-chan up to you!”

”idiot! Who wants to compete with you? My good impression of Kano is just because of good teammate cooperation, it’s not the romance you idiots have on your minds.”

”I’m also not going to fall in love with a man.”

After hearing their explanations, Naruto realized he had misunderstood and immediately started acting like brothers with Sasuke again. If he wasn’t competing for his girlfriend, then he was a blood brother.

However, what Naruto didn’t understand was that Sasuke felt teammate affection for Kano, and Kano felt similar feelings for Naruto plus a bit more care, while only Naruto had pure romantic feelings.

After walking a bit further, Naruto stared at Kano’s snowy feet.

”Kano-chan, why do you always take off your shoes when you’re sitting on the Shadow Deer?”

Since Kano got the Shadow Deer, she mostly used it for transport on missions. And when sitting on its back, she habitually took off her shoes.

Resting her feet, swinging them back and forth, she always drew Naruto’s gaze.

Finally, Naruto managed to ask today.

Kano answered calmly.
