Naruto Kakashi

In the blink of an eye, the next day came.

After a night's rest, Kakashi's condition finally recovered.

After eating something at the hotel, Kakashi started wandering around Konoha Village like a real traveling businessman.

Of course, Kakashi was not wandering aimlessly. Taking advantage of the opportunity to buy Konoha specialty products, Kakashi asked many questions to the store.

Some of these questions are task-related.

But the news about Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, is obviously not something that these traders in Konoha can know.

Therefore, apart from hearing the heroic deeds of the Konoha Sannin again, Kakashi gained nothing else.

Of course, Kakashi never expected to gain anything from the beginning, so the focus of Kakashi's question was mainly on a little boy.

And this little boy is the child of his teacher Minato Namikaze, Naruto.

Kakashi has always been concerned about Naruto.

But Kakashi knew very little about his situation.

On the one hand, because Naruto is still young, although there is a nine-tailed demon fox sealed in his body, there is not much relevant information.

On the other hand, Kakashi is not willing to go out of his way to investigate Naruto, or he is unwilling to be associated with Naruto as a rebellious ninja.

With his current identity, being connected to him would do no harm to Naruto.

Originally, Kakashi planned to maintain this attitude, but after arriving in Konoha, Kakashi couldn't help but inquire.

However, since it was impossible to ask directly, he could only make insinuations, but the question could not avoid the topic of Kyuubi.

For the residents of Konoha who had experienced the Nine-Tails Rebellion, this was the last thing they wanted to talk about.

Unable to bypass the Kyuubi, Kakashi had no choice but to be more direct and vaguely mentioned the Fourth Hokage's children. However, he got an answer from the residents of Konoha that surprised him. The Fourth Hokage had no heirs.

Or to be precise, four generations of children died in childbirth.

Naturally, Kakashi would not believe what the residents said. Apparently someone deliberately reported that the fourth generation had no heirs.

Only then did Kakashi realize that Naruto's identity in Konoha was much more complicated than he had imagined.

After working all morning, Kakashi finally returned to the hotel carrying a large bag of Konoha specialties.

After resting for a while in the hotel, Kakashi walked out of the hotel again in the afternoon.

This time Kakashi came to the area where he used to live in Konoha. Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar streets, Kakashi couldn't help but feel strange.

Two years is neither long nor short. For a ninja village with a long history like Konoha, it is difficult for much change to occur.

Along the street, scenes from my memory kept flashing through my mind, as if I had returned to the past.

Following the memory, when Kakashi came back to his senses, he found that he had actually walked into a forest.

After looking around for a while, Kakashi remembered where this place was.

This forest was once a training ground for ninjas. When Kakashi was young, his father took him here to train.

Later it was abandoned due to various reasons.

However, there are still many training equipments that have not been dismantled in this dilapidated training ground, and it has become a gathering place for children in the village.

Many children are in the training ground, imagining themselves as ninjas and playing ninja games in a decent manner.

Kakashi clearly remembers that this is where he met Obito and Rin.

Thinking of Obito and Lin, Kakashi couldn't help but think of the scene where they trained together and completed tasks together, which made him feel sad.

Just as I was about to leave here, a burst of children's quarrel came from not far away.

It seems that this place is still a gathering place for children as before.

Kakashi thought to himself, took two steps forward, and saw four children fighting in a ball.

To say it was a fight, it was better to say it was three little boys beating up another little boy.

Not far from them stood a helpless little girl.

"You fox demon, what qualifications do you have to play here?" Several children said while taking action.

Kakashi had no intention of intervening in the fight between children, but the words "fox demon" attracted his attention.

Demon fox?Kyuubi?Could it be that this child is?

Kakashi frowned and immediately stepped forward to stop the beating: "Stop."

Seeing an adult approaching, the three children who took action quickly dispersed and ran away immediately.

Kakashi didn't pay attention to the three children who ran away. His mind was now focused on the child who fell on the ground.

Kakashi immediately stepped forward and squatted down, lifting the child who had been knocked to the ground.

After lifting the child up, Kakashi carefully checked the boy's condition and found that only the corners of his mouth were slightly injured.

At the same time, Kakashi finally saw the boy's face.

The boy's face was a little unfamiliar, but Kakashi saw the shadows of his teacher Minato Namikaze and his master's wife Shinkuna.

That's right, this is the teacher's child.

Kakashi quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart and raised the corners of his mouth unconsciously, and asked knowingly: "What's your name, kid?"

"Big brother, my name is Naruto, Uzumaki Naruto." Upon hearing Kakashi's question, Naruto answered loudly and energetically, not looking like he had just been beaten.

"Uzumaki Naruto?" Kakashi couldn't help but frowned when he heard the name.

He originally thought that Naruto's name should be Namikaze Minato, but he didn't expect to use the last name of his master Kushina.

But this name obviously couldn't have been decided by Naruto himself.

There were not many people who knew Naruto's name before Kushina gave birth.

After thinking about it, there are only three generations who can do this.

Changing Naruto's surname, combined with the information that the fourth generation had no heirs from the villagers in the morning, the third generation seemed to be deliberately hiding Naruto's identity as the fourth generation's son.

Kakashi can somewhat understand why the third generation did this.

As the teacher's child and the son of the Hokage, Naruto's status can certainly bring huge benefits to Naruto, but it can also bring disaster.

Minato-sensei rose to prominence during the Third Ninja War, and it was precisely because of his outstanding contributions during the three wars that he was promoted to the position of Hokage.

But behind this outstanding contribution also means countless enemies.

The most important thing is that Minato-sensei died too early, only one year after the end of World War III.

Many people have not given up their hatred for Teacher Minato. If they learn that Naruto is Teacher Minato's child, they will most likely transfer their hatred to Naruto.

The third generation did this for Naruto's safety.

But one thing Kakashi couldn't understand was that the identity of Naruto's Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki didn't seem to be hidden along with his identity as the son of the Hokage.

If the Third Generation really wanted Naruto to grow up safely and healthily like an ordinary child, he should have hidden his identity as a jinchuriki.

But on the contrary, it can be seen from the words of the three children just now that Naruto's identity as the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki seems to be known throughout Konoha.

Kakashi knew very well how much the residents of Konoha hated the Kyuubi.

As the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, Naruto will naturally be hostile and ostracized by the villagers.

Thinking of this, Kakashi couldn't help but feel a little angry.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Naruto saw Kakashi staring without saying a word, which made him a little uncomfortable.

"Oh, it's okay." Hearing Naruto's voice, Kakashi realized that he was a little out of control and quickly corrected himself.

At this time, the little girl on the side saw that Naruto was rescued, so she quickly ran over, grabbed the corner of Naruto's clothes, and hid behind him.

"Little girl, what's your name?" This is the first time Kakashi has seen such a shy girl.

At the same time, he also noticed the girl's eyes with white pupils.

Byakugan, a Hyuga child?

"My name is Hinata Hinata." Hinata carefully held the corner of Naruto's clothes and whispered, "Brother, thank you for saving Naruto."

After hearing Hinata's answer, Kakashi thought to himself that it was true.

Due to the existence of Hyuga Hizashi, Kakashi still has a good impression of the Hyuga family.

So Kakashi gave Hinata a friendly smile.

But Hinata seemed to be much shyer than Kakashi thought. She didn't dare to look at Kakashi at all and hid behind Naruto in embarrassment.

"By the way, big brother, I don't think I've seen you before." Naruto seemed to be aware of Hinata's predicament, and asked at the right time.

"I am a businessman from another village. I originally wanted to return to the hotel, but I got lost while walking." Kakashi made up a reason casually.

"No wonder, few people from other villages come here." Naruto had no doubt about it, "By the way, big brother, which hotel are you going to? I'll take you there. If nothing else, for the village, I But the most familiar one.”

"Hot Spring Hotel." Kakashi said. This time he did not lie. The Hot Spring Hotel was indeed his destination.

However, Kakashi did not intend to let Naruto take him there, but pointed to the wound at the corner of his mouth: "Just tell me the location. You'd better take the time to deal with the wound."

Hearing the word wound, Hinata's hand holding Naruto's clothes tightened significantly.

It was obvious that she had been worried about Naruto's injury, but she was too shy to speak because Kakashi was here.

"It's okay, this little injury is nothing to me." Naruto patted his chest and said nonchalantly.

"Naruto-kun." Before Kakashi could speak, Hinata softly called Naruto's name, as if she wanted to express her objection.

Hearing Hinata's voice, Naruto noticed that Hinata was here, so he didn't insist anymore, but pointed in one direction: "Okay, you can walk in this direction for 2 minutes and it should be enough." We can get there.”

"Okay, thank you, little friend, I hope we can meet again soon." Kakashi then stood up and waved to Naruto and the other two.

"Big brother, goodbye." Naruto said still full of energy.

Hinata also opened her mouth, but it was covered by Naruto's voice.

Soon Kakashi disappeared from the sight of the two people in the direction pointed by Naruto.
