Konoha's logic genius

"I didn't expect that four years later, those two teenagers would have grown to this level now."

Hatake Sakumo couldn't help but sigh in his heart as he looked at the fierce battle between Uzumaki Kiyo and Namikaze Minato.

With Hatake Sakumo's eyesight, he could naturally tell what level the two of them were at.

Although the two of them only demonstrated physical skills and time and space movement in the process of fighting for the jar, Hatake Sakumo could tell with these two items that their strength was definitely worthy of comparison in the current Konoha. It's top combat power.

With Uzumaki Kiyoshi and Namikaze Minato's taijutsu, Hatake Sakumo realized that when he didn't use a sword, he was only better than the two of them.

As he was thinking about it, suddenly a jar flew towards Hatake Sakumo in mid-air.

Hatake Sakumo looked at the can flying towards him, quickly stretched out his hand to catch it, and immediately grabbed the can.

"Did you even forget the can when you started fighting?"

Hatake Sakumo smiled.

However, if he encounters an equally matched opponent, he will probably be delighted.

Things other than combat are naturally easy to ignore.

What's more, this can is just a simple can. Under the strong wind, it would be difficult to get within one meter of the two people fighting.

Hatake Sakumo glanced into the training ground again. Uzumaki Kiyoshi and Namikaze Minato seemed to realize that the jar was missing and temporarily stopped fighting.

So, Hatake Sakumo also slowly walked towards this small training ground.

In the training ground, Uzumaki Kiyoshi and Namifeng Shuimen looked at each other.

"Where's the jar?"

Uzumaki Kiyo asked.

Namikaze Minato shook his head, he didn't know.

Uzumaki Kiyoshi was a little helpless. His Kagura Heart Eye was indeed very convenient for sensing ninjas with chakra, but he was also helpless when it came to sensing dead objects like ordinary cans.

But with Kagura's Heart Eye opened, Uzumaki Kiyo suddenly felt a powerful and familiar chakra coming towards them.

If he remembered correctly, this chakra...

It belongs to Hatake Sakumo!

Thinking of this, Uzumaki Qing suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction where the chakra fluctuations were coming from.

"Qing, Minato, you are back."

Under the amber light, Hatake Sakumo held a can in his hand and greeted Uzumaki Kiyo and Namikaze Minato with a gentle smile.

"Dad, you are finally back."

Before Uzumaki Kiyo and Namikaze Minato could say anything, Hatake Kakashi rushed up first.

At this time, Kakashi Hatake was still a child at heart, and he had no resistance at all to the arrival of Sakumo Hatake, who had been away for many days.

"Ah."

Hatake Sakumo touched Hatake Kakashi's head and held Hatake Kakashi's little hand, which was very friendly.

"Mr. Shuo Mao."

Uzumaki Kiyoshi and Namikaze Minato said politely to Hatake Sakumo at the same time.

Hatake Sakumo has been the mainstay of Konoha Village's combat power in the past ten years since the two of them went to ninja school.

Moreover, the relationship between the two of them and Hatake Sakumo is also good.

Naturally, both of them respected Hatake Sakumo.

"We originally wanted to visit Mr. Sakumo, but when we saw a few children playing kick-the-can game here, we couldn't help but feel a little itchy."

Uzumaki Qing said to Hatake Sakumo with a smile.

Hatake Sakumo nodded, he could understand their mood.

He had had this idea before, but it was a pity that he did not have equally excellent partners in the same period like Uzumaki Kiyoshi and Namikaze Minato.

Since he left the ninja school, he was selected into the ANBU directly under the Hokage, and was promoted step by step from ANBU member, ANBU captain, ANBU captain to ANBU minister.

So, even though he had the idea of ​​playing some games that he found fun in his childhood, he couldn't find anyone to play with him.

"It's okay. I just came back from a mission. If you go to look for me directly, you may not be able to find me."

Hatake Sakumo replied.

When Hatake Sakumo responded to Uzumaki Kiyoshi's words, Uzumaki Kiyo keenly noticed that Hatake Sakumo looked a little uncomfortable when he mentioned the mission.

Combining the plot of the original work and the relevant timeline, Uzumaki Qing suddenly had a guess in his mind.

If he guessed correctly, the mission that Hatake Sakumo just completed was most likely the mission that led to White Fang's suicide in the original work.

"Is there something wrong with the mission?"

Uzumaki Kiyoshi asked Hatake Sakumo.

Hatake Sakumo nodded and said to Uzumaki Kiyoshi:

"Well, the mission failed."

On the side, Namikaze Minato couldn't help but express his surprise.

"Mission failed?"

It's no wonder Namikaze Minato was surprised.

Konoha White Fang is a brand name that resounds throughout the ninja world.

In the other four countries, there are orders to temporarily abandon the mission after seeing Konoha White Fang.

However, in this mission, Hatake Sakumo failed.

This had to surprise Namikaze Minato.

"Well, the mission failed."

"That confidential mission, if completed, is not impossible."

"But if I choose to carry out the mission, the brothers who went on the mission with me will not survive."

"I can't just watch them die."

Hatake Sakumo said calmly.

He could probably predict the duties that were coming to him in the village.

But if God allowed him to choose again, he would still choose to save his companions.

Every ninja has a path of ninja that he wants to practice throughout his life.

And cherishing your companions is the way of ninja that Hatake Sakumo will never abandon.

"If it were me, I would do the same thing."

"Rules are dead, people are alive."

"If the mission is not completed, you can think of other ways to make up for it, but if a person dies, he is really dead."

Uzumaki Kiyoshi didn't say anything to comfort Hatake Sakumo, but he said that if he put himself in the same position as Hatake Sakumo, he would make the same choice.

If the lives of Namikaze Minato, Uzumaki Kushina or Yakushi Noonoyu are in danger, no matter what the mission is, even if Uzumaki Kiyoshi wants to risk his life, he will not hesitate.

Because, these important people in Uzumaki Qing,

"Me too."

"In the world of ninjas, missions are very important, but I think companions have a higher priority than missions."

Namikaze Minato also firmly expressed his support for Hatake Sakumo.

"Is that so?"

"Then I feel much better."

After receiving support from Uzumaki Kiyo and Namikaze Minato, it was obvious that Hatake Sakumo relaxed a lot.

"If nothing happens, I will go back with Kakashi Hatake first."

Hatake Sakumo said, after saying goodbye to Uzumaki Kiyoshi and Namikaze Minato, he pulled Hatake Kakashi and left slowly under the amber sunlight.

Uzumaki Kiyoshi looked at the direction Hatake Sakumo left, thoughtfully in his heart.

In fact, there are some differences between Hatake Sakumo's hypothesis of saving his companions this time and his hypothesis of saving pharmacist Nonou and others.

The biggest difference is that his companions blamed Hatake Sakumo.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Hatake Sakumo to collapse based on the villagers' accusations alone.

If you think about it from another person's perspective, Uzumaki Qinghui might not even pay attention to the accusations made by ordinary people.

But if Yakushi Noono, Uzumaki Kushina and Namikaze Minato accuse Uzumaki Kiyoshi at the same time, then Uzumaki Kiyoshi's heart...

It will definitely be extremely uncomfortable.
