CHAPTER 9: Potato Chips

Neji and the other were walking in fifth corridor. It liked the other corridor, dimmed. But, they could see weird picture painted in the entire wall.

"What's this?" Naruto was thinking.

"Hm…I'm wondering, too. I think I've seen it somewhere" Ino replied.

"Don't waste the time, let's go" Neji cut.

"Ah, hai"

They continued their journey. Then, they arrived at a shogi door.

"I wonder who will we got" Naruto grinned.

"Let's see" Neji replied as he opened the door.

Inside was a small restaurant. And a ghost was sitting one of the chairs. He was grumbling and muttered about something. Neji had a bad feeling and regretted to choose the path. The ghost turned and found them. There was a silence for 2 minutes, but the ghost broke it with his smile.

"Hi"

"H-Hi" Naruto hesitated, not knowing what to say.

The ghost wore t-shirt, jacket jeans and jeans. To make him different from the other was he wore hat. Black hat. You could see his jeans torned in knees-place.

"Ehe. So you are the white-eyes boy?" he asked as he looked at Neji.

"Neji" Neji answered coldly.

The ghost smiled at Ino, "What's your name?" he asked.

"Ya-Yamanaka Ino" Ino answered.

"I'm Dai. And you blonde-boy?" he asked as he snapped Naruto's forehead with his finger.

"Ouch. Uzumaki Naruto" Naruto pouted as his hands covered his forehead.

"AND I…" before Gai and Lee continued, Dai cut.

"Okay, let's start the quest" Dai said as he didn't care with Gai and Lee.

"Matte! Didn't you forget someone?!" Gai and Lee asked.

Dai turned to them, "Is your name so important? I'm sorry, but I don't think so" he said as he walked away, left Gai and Lee dumbfound.

He walked to a big table, full with many kinds of potato chips.

Neji's jaw dropped. "D-Don't say I must eat all the potato chips. I'm too full"

Enough with Naruto. Don't add with Chouji.

Note: Ramen Naruto, Potato Chip Chouji. Neji's nicknames for them.

Dai chuckled when he heard Neji, "Ha, ha. Of course you mustn't"

"So, what must I do?"

"From all these Potato Chips, you must find the flavor and brand the boy I kidnapped like"

Neji, Ino and Naruto's jaws dropped and eyes widened.

Dai grinned.

Neji walked around the table in thinking pose. He thought what flavor and brand Chouji like.

The problem was he never talked with Chouji in conversation and close mode and THAT was a big problem! He couldn't think anything because Gai and Lee annoying him. They cheered him with all the youthful words which we know can't help him. Then, he turned to Ino and Naruto with please-help-me look. Naruto and Ino who noticed this tried to help him, but they could feel Dai was watching them. So, how could they help Neji without being known by Dai?

"Ah! I bet, after this Chouji will ask Asuma-sensei to bring him to Barbeque Restaurant" Ino yelled suddenly.

"Huh, that's right! He loves BARBEQUE very much!" Naruto replied.

"He can't life without BARBEQUE, right?" Ino and Naruto said as Neji tried to understand their keywords.

BARBEQUE! He began to search barbeque flavor but he remembered he didn't know the brand. Suddenly, Ino and Naruto yelled again.

"And he always goes to OISHI Shop to buy potato chip!" Ino stated.

"That's right. The weird OISHI shop which just sell Potato Chip" Naruto added.

Oishi? I think I never heard a shop named like that in Konoha. Oishi…ah! OISHI! Then, he searched Potato Chip Barbeque Flavor made by Oishi. Finally, he got it.

He took the potato chip and brought to Dai.

"This, right?" he smirked because the teamwork they had. Have Ino and Naruto as teammates weren't that bad.

"Great! You're really genius! Congratulation!" Dai congratulated.

Neji smirked as Ino and Naruto cheered.

"I'm happy to meet you guys" Dai said as he disappeared and Chouji appeared.

Neji sighed deeply. He didn't know, have Ino and Naruto before Chouji was luck for him.

They sweatdropped. Chouji munched his potato chip, "Ah, you guys. Finally, you came, eh?"

"Wow! You're really my student Neji!!" Gai cried.

But, Neji replied him with glare. You and Lee are useless. He cursed under breath.

"Let's go, Ino, Naruto" he said.

FYI, Hyuuga Neji is someone who will hold a grudge for something simple. Childish? Of course. Don't ask it. Just one thing that Hyuuga Neji doesn't posses, Stupidity, right?

"Okay, Neji! LET'S GO TO THE NEXT CORRIDOR WITH THE BURNING OF OUR YOUTHFUL SPIRIT!!!" Gai cried and yelled as he hugged Neji.

Again, Neji used Jyuuken. Chouji and Naruto didn't care, Ino shocked and Lee cried.

"Who said I'll go with you, huh?" Neji glared.

"NEJI! HOW CRUEL YOU'RE, MY YOUTHFUL RIVAL!!" Lee cried as he held Gai.

"I-It's okay, Lee. It is a sign of the Neji's youthful spirit" Gai said then fainted.

"GAI-SENSEI!!" Lee cried as he hugged Gai tight.

"Forget them" Neji said.

"Let's go" Naruto said as he and Neji walked away.

Then, they turned to Ino, "Ino" they gave her you-come-or-not look.

Ino looked at them and Lee, "M-Matte" she said as tried to catch Neji and Naruto up.

Did they forget someone else?
