Konoha Qiweiju

Chapter 210 The Lost Kakashi (Two in One)

Konoha 46, October [-]th, weather: overcast
The war gradually subsided.

But there are not one damn person missing.

The bad news came gradually.

Obito, Lin, none of them are missing.

I don't seem to feel sad in my heart, just feel pity.

Did too many changes make me hard-hearted, or did I gradually treat them all as comic characters?

Who knows.

……

Qiweiju.

Zhenxiu handled the ingredients as usual.

With the end of the war, there are more and more people in Konoha.

The number of people coming to Qiweiju is also increasing.

Happiness appeared on everyone's face.

For them, there is probably nothing more joyful than peace.

When night fell, Qiweiju seemed quieter.

A busy day is not enough to make Zhenxiu feel tired.

The silver-white boy pushed open the door curtain and pushed the tinkling wind chime.

"Kakashi."

Zhenxiu cried softly, quite surprised by Kakashi's arrival.

Kakashi looked up, meeting Shino's eyes.

The original left eye was covered by the forehead, and only the right eye was exposed.

And in that right eye, even the original faint look disappeared.

All that was left was silence.

Kakashi sat quietly in the chair without saying a word.

No one knew what he was thinking.

Zhenxiu didn't speak either, just looked at him quietly.

When someone is sad, don't bother him.

The more you ask, it will only make him feel worse.

The more you care, the more annoying it will be for him.

Zhenxiu is such a person.

So, he didn't want to bother Kakashi.

Sometimes, they will speak out for themselves.

Because he came here, there is always his purpose.

Zhenxiu didn't want to pour chicken soup on Kakashi either.

Because he doesn't like it.

Time passed minute by minute.

If Kakashi doesn't say anything, he can't really cultivate.

The picture also seems to be extremely harmonious.

It's just that behind this harmony, there is a trace of weirdness.

I don't know how long it took before Kakashi said slowly: "The owner of the black shop..."

Kakashi's voice was hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time.

"Ok?"

"Did Lin and Obito eat a dish here before?"

"Yes."

"Can I make one?"

Kakashi raised his head, the exposed right eye was frighteningly hollow.

At this moment, Kakashi seemed to be not alone, but a walking dead.

Without any emotion, I gave up my ego.

He didn't get out of the darkness, but fell into a deeper darkness.

In the closed left eye, there is even more terrifying and dark power.

"Okay, wait a minute."

Zhenxiu didn't refuse, and started to make it.

Kakashi crashed again.

After 10 minutes, the cooking is done.

Put it in front of Kakashi.

Black and white tofu, red sauce.

Or the Big Magic Panda Mapo Tofu.

The color and fragrance are complete, and it adds a bit of interest to life.

It's just that these are nothing in Kakashi's eyes.

He just saw the dish that Lin brought to them before.

That taste is extremely moving.

Kakashi scooped up a sip and put it in his mouth.

His expression didn't change at all, and he even put down the spoon.

"Unappetizing."

Unappetizing?
This is the first time Zhenxiu has received such an evaluation.

Zhenxiu frowned, could something be wrong?
Should not be ah.

"It's far worse than Lin's craftsmanship."

Kakashi continued.

Zhenxiu smiled helplessly when he heard the words.

Even the most powerful chef cannot change the addition of emotional factors in cooking.

It's like comparing the taste of my mother's food when I was a child with the food of a Michelin restaurant. I believe most people will choose the former.

Because the delicacy brought by that emotional factor is far beyond the control of the chef.

The only thing the chef can control is the sense of taste.

There's nothing like emotion.

Putting down the spoon, Kakashi's state remained unchanged.

Just looking at the familiar Big Magic Panda Mapo Tofu, Kakashi fell silent.

Zhenxiu scratched his head, really distressed.

It actually got such an evaluation.

But soon, Kakashi picked up the spoon and ate the plate of mapo tofu bite by bite.

"Lin...with soil..."

black tofu.

White tofu.

Red gravy.

As Lin said, they should unite and cooperate like this dish.

But in the end, he was the only one left.

Everything is destroyed.

There is nothing left.

Only myself, a useless person, was left.

Kakashi's vision blurred.

Tears filled the eye sockets, and even tears flowed from under the forehead.

Strong teenagers also have a weak side.

And this side is facing death.

In just one year, Kakashi lost two more beloved friends.

This kind of blow, if it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid it would have been blackened.

But Kakashi just fell into the darkness, not yet blackened, and this psychological quality has surpassed ordinary people by far.

Otherwise, the world would not just have one more masked man.

I'm afraid there will be another one-eyed man with a mask.

After eating, Kakashi still left without saying a word.

True cultivation, did not stay.

"It's nice to be young."

Zhenxiu smiled faintly, and there was a bit of self-mockery in the smile.

He actually envied Kakashi a little bit.

Now who will he cry because of his death?

Or Tsunade and Kushina.

maybe……

Zhenxiu is not sure either.

The night is hazy, but no one can understand the loneliness.

"Aren't you going to comfort that kid named Kakashi?"

Meatball on the side yawned and said.

"No, someone is more suitable than me to comfort him."

"is it?"

"Well, that person is coming back soon."

"That's really interesting."

Meatball said with a smile.

"Meatball, do you think I've become cold-blooded?"

"Become less silly."

Facing Rouqiu's ridicule, Zhenxiu smiled helplessly.

What he said, he didn't know how to refute it.

Jingling, the wind chime rang again.

The visitor is Minato.

"Boss Zhenxiu, long time no see."

"Minato. Why did you come here so late at night?"

"I'm here to find Kakashi."

"Then it's not a coincidence for you to come, he just left."

"Is he all right?"

Minato was a little worried.

"It doesn't look good."

"Sigh. The deaths of Obito and Lin made Kakashi a completely different person. It's also my fault. Every time there are other things to do, they are in danger."

Minato blamed himself.

Even if it is called the golden flash, even if it is powerful.

But facing his own students, he couldn't protect his integrity.

Two are dead and one is useless.

How could Minato be indifferent?

It's just that this is the cruelty of war.

It's not something he can change.

He had tried his best to take protective measures, but he didn't expect accidents to happen one after another.

On the battlefield, even he cannot be foolproof.

"Let them grow on their own, they have their own way to go. It's not something you can control."

Minato was silent.

Just when Zhenxiu thought that Minato would swallow the bitter fruit like this, Minato suddenly said: "Maybe they have their own path. But as their teacher, what I can do is to make them walk more smoothly. If there is nothing It’s a bit self-deceiving to say that there is no way to do it.”

Zhenxiu was taken aback when he heard the words.

Is it self-deception to say that there is no way to do nothing?

Zhenxiu fell silent.

Maybe, I have been deceiving myself all along.

It's just that none of these people seem to be able to arouse the desire of true practitioners to save.

If it was Toikama and the others, maybe he would be desperate.

"Then you have to work harder. Kakashi's situation is not good."

"Ah."

Minato responded softly, and packed a piece of national scholar Mu Duan and went home.

Qiweiju fell into peace again.

The wind chime rang again.

There seem to be too many people today.

This time, it was the third Hokage.

Different from him before, now he has shown an old state.

Years are not forgiving.

The young man who used to follow Zhenxiu is now an old man with gray hair.

And Zhenxiu still looks like a teenager.

"Ri Zhan, why are you free to come over today?"

"I miss Teacher Zhenxiu's cooking, so come over and have a taste."

"Then you are very leisurely. I haven't congratulated you yet, you have won the final victory."

Ri Zhan waved his hand and said with a helpless smile: "There is nothing to congratulate. Konoha also suffered a heavy loss. It has not been more than ten years. I am afraid that I will not be able to recover from death."

"War is like this. Want something to eat?"

"Still the old rules."

"OK, wait."

Ten minutes later, a bowl of fish soup was brought out in the middle of the night and placed in front of Ri Zhan.

The faint fragrance made Ri Zhan seem to have returned to his youth.

After taking a sip, Ri Zhan smiled and said, "Teacher Zhenxiu's fish soup is still so delicious."

"That's natural. My cooking is the best in the world."

Ri Zhan nodded noncommittally, and quickly finished the fish soup.

The cold night seemed to warm up a lot.

"Seeing your worried face, do you want to ask me something?"

Zhenxiu directly helped him speak out with the appearance of the third Hokage hesitant to speak.

Ri Zhan said with a smile when he heard the words: "As expected of Teacher Zhenxiu, I can't hide anything from you. I do have something I want to ask the teacher."

"I said you are really strange, a Hokage keeps asking me questions, making it seem like I am Hokage."

Zhenxiu said helplessly.

"Hehe. Before he died, the second-generation master once said that if he encounters any problems that cannot be solved, he will come and ask you. I also follow his old man's last wish."

"That guy, if he dies, he will bother me."

"Hehe, Teacher Zhenxiu was joking."

"Okay, if you have something to say, hurry up."

Hirizan sorted out his thoughts, and said: "In this third ninja world war, although Konoha won, he also suffered heavy losses. As Hokage, I cannot absolve myself of the blame. Therefore, I plan to retreat to the second line and select a The new Hokage, the successor. But who to choose, I am in a dilemma."

"So that's how it is. There are only a few people who are qualified to succeed Hokage, Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Tsunade, Uchiha Fugaku, and Minato, isn't it good?"

"Teacher Zhenxiu is right. The rest of them either have insufficient status, insufficient strength, or insufficient reputation. Only these five people meet the requirements."

"Actually, you have deleted most of the candidates in your mind, leaving only two, isn't it?"

Zhenxiu looked at Ri Zhan and smiled faintly.

Hearing the words, the Third Hokage smiled wryly, and said, "I still can't hide it from Teacher Zhenxiu."

"Tsunade suffers from hemophobia, and he is not in Konoha now, so he is naturally the first one to be eliminated. Jiraiya has no intention of taking the position of Hokage. Even if it is recommended, he will refuse. Not to mention Fuyue, as Uchiha The clan itself is an unstable factor. Tobima doesn’t even allow them to enter the power center, and you won’t let them succeed the position of Hokage.”

Speaking of Fuyue, the third Hokage is a little embarrassed.

But Zhenxiu was right.

Even in order to respect the last wish of the Second Hokage, they cannot elect the Uchiha clan.

After all, the current Uchiha clan does not seem so peaceful.

"The rest is Orochimaru and Minato."

"Yes, these are the two candidates I am satisfied with. Originally, I was going to recommend Orochimaru, but recently I feel that there is something wrong with Orochimaru. He seems to be a little close to Danzo. I am afraid that the two of them will connect together. For Konoha, it is definitely not a good thing.

But if it is Minato, he is still young after all. Although he has made great achievements in the three wars, he may not be able to deal with issues such as the struggle between Konoha's high-level officials.But if I help it, I'm afraid it will make Minato feel like a puppet Hokage again. "

Three generations of Hokage said this, feeling very embarrassed.

Zhenxiu smiled and said, "Isn't the answer obvious?"

"what?"

"The time Minato needs, Orochimaru may ruin Konoha. Such a choice is not comparable."

The Third Hokage was taken aback, it seemed so.

"But I'm afraid I'll misunderstand Orochimaru and chill his heart."

Zhenxiu smiled again: "Hi Zhan, maybe you really don't understand Orochimaru. Is the position of Hokage really important to him? I don't think so. Maybe in his eyes, the position of Hokage is not attractive at all. Not sure about strength."

"can you?"

The Third Hokage couldn't believe it.

Besides people like Jiraiya, is there anyone who doesn't want to be Hokage?

That's really weird, isn't it?
"Hi Zhan, you always think too much and do too little. Maybe you can't understand the current state of Orochimaru."

"Teacher Zhenxiu said so, do you know Dashewan very well?"

The Third Hokage was puzzled.

Zhenxiu shook his head.

"I don't know, I just know, maybe this Konoha is just a cage for Orochimaru. When you leave here, it's the moment when Orochimaru transforms into a dragon."

Three Hokage's brows frowned even deeper.

Orochimaru, his apprentice, what kind of existence has he become?

It seemed like I was getting to know him again.

It's just that this kind of him is probably not a good thing for Konoha.

The three generations of Hokage who got the answer left Qiweiju.

Looking at the back of the third Hokage, Shino sighed.

"The wind blows the windmill. When the wind stops, the windmill will continue to rotate."

In the cool night, a white shadow landed on the roof of Qiweiju.
