Hokage Building Ground Floor

Uchiha Shisui pushed open the AN Minister's door, entered the room and bowed three times to Kakashi.

"Are you crazy?" The ANBU's voice was a little tight under his mask.

"I am mourning for you in advance, lest I die before you." He straightened up and said with a serious face, "Your Excellency, you have tested me several times in the morning, and I, in order to avoid the irreversible consequences of the fact that Master Naruto traveled far away privately, The consequence was that he lied to him."

"Haha, I owe you a meal."

"Remember to burn a pair of beautiful chopsticks for me." Shisui said, suddenly feeling a gust of wind blowing by, shaking his shoulders to drive away the chill, "Kakashi, you lied to me."

"You must have misunderstood yourself." Kakashi spread his hands, "Which law stipulates that what a Hokage disciple says is what the Hokage has agreed to."

After hearing Kakashi's nonchalant tone, Shisui quickly took a deep breath and said, "You bastard, it's fine if you don't treat me as a human being. Our relationship is just that anyway. But Genma, Yamato, and others are all involved by you." The Anbu who came in, the Hokage's subordinates, the Hokage's Anbu, actually helped the most trusted person of the Hokage to hide the truth. Do you know what this is? If the Hokage chooses not to forgive us in the end, do you know what the consequences will be. You rebel, you really don’t want a coup, do you?”

Kakashi raised his eyes and saw the murderous intent in Shisui's eyes. He almost wanted to laugh, "You have such a big idea."

"You're obviously out of your mind."

"It's human nature to hold back the pillow before death." Finally, Kakashi put down the document in his hand.

But after hearing this, the Hokage Guard Captain became even more angry, "I thought you weren't that stupid for the second time, Kakashi, how dare you."

Kakashi lowered his eyes and said, "I admit that Gaara's matter was a bit out of control. It was because I was too stupid and naive, and because I was eager for quick success and quick gain when I first took office. But this time, the opportunity is really not to be missed."

Shisui sighed, "It has to be this time. Aren't you afraid that the news of Uchiha Fugaku's death will spread in advance? If someone really wants to cause trouble, Itachi is very strong and ordinary people can't bite it, but that stupid boy Sasuke can become a luminous one." A large magnet. Then you just sold your teacher’s precious son as fishing bait. How dare you say that your brain is full of water?”

"Naruto is already 14 years old. What was the teacher doing when he was 14 years old? You, me, and even Itachi were doing when he was 14 years old. As a ninja of Konoha, he should bear the responsibility as soon as possible."

"You're right." Shisui didn't know what to say. "The fourth generation has worked hard for so many years and only wishes to spend more time with his son. You can't make him happy for two more days. You saw it." , When eating with Naruto, he would eat half a bowl more even if he had no appetite. At night, he would sleep with his son. You see, he didn't sleep soundly until dawn. Konoha is now short of people and genin. "

"Naruto is a jinchuriki."

"Konoha doesn't need a jinchūriki to increase its presence now."

"It will be too late when you really need it."

Shisui suddenly felt that Kakashi's tone was wrong, but he couldn't think of what was wrong for a moment, "What do you mean?"

"I'll keep getting messed up." Kakashi sighed, "Otherwise, I'll be full and disobey the teacher."

Shisui was a little anxious at this time, "Kakashi"

"That's all." Kakashi was not as patient with his colleagues as he was with his seniors, "If there's nothing else to do, just step aside."

But the guard captain is not afraid of Anbu, "Kakashi, don't always be so lonely. It's not good for everyone."

"Pop." Kakashi took out a new cigarette case and knocked it on the table.

"Ha." Shisui finally calmed down his emotions in time, "I'm warning you, Hokage-sama will be angry if he protects his shortcomings."

"It's okay to give him a chance to vent." Kakashi lit the cigarette and took a puff. "I have a sense of propriety, and I hope you do too. Step back."

Shisui frowned and was annoyed, not being close to each other. He didn't want to conflict with Kakashi, but he didn't want the Hokage to know the news about his son from anyone other than the guards. He had a hunch that if the guards were on the wrong side again this time After joining the team, I'm afraid it's not the problem of mobilizing a few secret guards last time. "Before the Hokage finds out, you should surrender yourself."

"Otherwise," Kakashi looked at the rope that Shisui had been holding in his hand, "You can tie me up immediately to atone for your sins."

"Otherwise." Zhisui's eyes turned red and he unrolled the rope, "The morning meeting can't be held for more than a few minutes. As soon as the adults finish the meeting, you should hurry up and apologize."

Kakashi took another puff of cigarette, opened his mouth and blew out half a smoke ring.

"Ding ding ding." Suddenly the phone rang.

Kakashi picked up the phone and said, "This is the AN Minister's office."

"Kakashi." What came over the phone was not the ANBU report, but the Hokage, "I suddenly remembered. Naruto said yesterday that he had been eating takeout for several days in a row and wanted home-cooked food. I looked at it. As for the morning schedule, I think I can make it home in time to cook at noon, so remember to ask Naruto and Sasuke to come back for dinner together."

"Okay." Kakashi replied subconsciously.

"Bah." Naruto hung up the phone.

"Idiot" Uchiha Shisui unrolled the rope again and cursed in a low voice, "He has definitely discovered what you said. Why didn't you think more about it? If you sent Naruto and the others to the Land of Wind, now give Yamato a communication , you can fly all the way to Thunder God and be back at noon. What do you think, you have to go to the Kingdom of Water, which has only a few coordinates. "

"Isn't Akimichi Cho's camp safer?" Kakashi took off his blindfold and wiped his face, "Okay, I'm going to continue working. Since you have nothing to do, take the time to rest. The Uchiha incident has just happened. It’s starting.”

"Idiot, you should resolve Naruto's matter first and go and apologize quickly. Don't take any chances while I just gave you the opportunity."

"Noon, noon." Kakashi puffed out his cigarette, "Don't worry, I didn't make any procedural mistakes when I sent Naruto out to do field work. There is no rule in Konoha that says Anbubu cannot send a genin out of the village to do a mission."

"Kakashi."

"So this is just a private matter of the Namikaze family."

The Hokage had no personal matters. Shisui wanted to say this, but seeing the determination in Kakashi's eyes, he could only grit his teeth and disappear.

And Kakashi put on his blindfold when he heard the words "take care of yourself" left by Shisui when he left. He knew what those four words meant. Please don't always rely on the love and care of the person I guard to treat you, and trample on his love for you. of trust.Why is it so similar to Akimichi Choza-senpai's bowl-sized fist? Kakashi felt a little uncomfortable as he touched his back molars that seemed to be still hurting.Yes, his teacher, their Hokage has had a really hard life these years. Apart from work, Naruto is the only one left.But Naruto will grow up, children and all, they grow up very quickly.

In a blink of an eye, it’s already 9 a.m.

Hokage Tower, small living room,

The atmosphere should be considered friendly.

"No, no, no, it's not strange. It doesn't matter where we talk, whether it's your office or the living room." The Hokage's guest today couldn't help but take out his handkerchief. He already regretted wearing a thick handkerchief for some bullshit face. "It's just a little hot here, hahaha."

"Is it hot? Are you okay?" Naruto took off his white cloak and handed it to the ANBU who followed him, and fanned himself at the same time.He knew that the old Hokage Building would always lose power in the summer, but he did not expect that the rarely used living room would also have no power to turn on the air conditioner.But he was too lazy to explain, so the Hokage still just said politely, "You must have eaten too much for breakfast."

But the visitor seemed to be unaccustomed to the Hokage's cold jokes. Instead, he paid more attention to the word "you" directed at him, "Fourth, Yondaime-sama, please don't do this. This subordinate is extremely frightened."

"I know you don't have a sense of humor." The Hokage frowned upon hearing this, but his focus was on the "subordinate" mentioned by the visitor, "As a representative sent by the king, you should not treat One actor claimed to be a subordinate, I am in charge of the military and you are in charge of the civil affairs. We are obviously colleagues, right?"

And the minister of the Fire Country was even more weak.He finally realized why the real economic minister suddenly fell ill before leaving.Because if you want to have a normal conversation with this ninja leader who once killed many people, you really need extraordinary courage and wisdom.

"What's the matter, my lord, why are you wiping your sweat all the time? If there is any lack of service in Konoha, you can tell us directly."

"No, no." The minister quickly put away the damp handkerchief. His good-natured emotional intelligence told him that the Hokage did not want to mention the word hot.

"Since not, please take a seat." The Hokage finally sat on the sofa next to the wall of the small living room.

"Yes, yes." The minister bowed slightly and sat down.

The Hokage nodded to him and said, "I'm really sorry, Konoha is very busy recently, and I haven't been able to get away, so I can only ask you to come over."

"It should be, it should be." The minister on the sofa finally lost his strength. After all, sitting down, the height of the Hokage put less pressure on him, not to mention, "For the benefit of the country of fire, Wei Chen has to go to the mountains and seas of fire. .”

"Since that's what you think." The Hokage saw that the minister was already in the state of talking, so he didn't waste time. He waved, took a thick folder from the Anbu's hand, and handed it to the secret agent.

The minister wiped sweat with his sleeve. "

"This is it." The minister felt a little embarrassed when the Hokage looked at him.

"The Minister of Economic Affairs who pretended to be ill has already told you. Today we are going to talk about the unification of the joint economic zone between the two countries. Some rules that everyone can accept. I originally wanted to put it aside for a while, so that The easy-to-problem areas are fully exposed. But the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Water are urging me, and I can’t delay any longer. Therefore, what you have in your hand is a draft of some necessary negotiation items compiled by Konoha based on intelligence from various sources. Hurry up Time, hurry up and take a look, we can talk after reading it."

"Yes." The Minister of Temporary Labor had no choice but to look at the document, but before that, he also took out a slightly thin folder, "Well, when I came here, the Minister of Economy also gave me a draft and asked you to help me correct it. .”

"Okay." The Hokage asked the Anbu to take it, and only took it in his hand after receiving a reminder that it was safe and non-toxic.

As a result, the living room that was supposed to be used for talking turned into a study room filled with rustling papers.However, the only one who read the document carefully was the unfortunate minister.As for our Hokage, he naturally seizes the time to close his eyes and rest.By the way, take advantage of the rare free time to sort out your thoughts.For example, Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Mikoto, and all Uchiha.And of course Kakashi and Naruto.

Yes, Namikaze Minato already knew that his lovely Naruto was tricked by his most trusted disciple again.Minato felt that he should be angrier this time than the last time. Indeed, when he really confirmed this, his lungs almost exploded with anger.But then his stomach, which hurt more than his lungs, told him that what could he do if he got angry and worried now? First, his son was already out in the field.Once a ninja takes on a mission, it's impossible to end it.Even if the survival rate for that mission really was zero, he would not dare to fly Thunder God to his son on the mission and directly take him home forcibly.If he really dares to do this, then the next day, all the Konoha ninjas in Konoha who are worried that their sons will be in danger will think that Namikaze Minato's son is a son, but other people's sons are not.

This is not what a qualified Hokage should do, and he does not want to use a reasonably reasonable reason to prevaricate his subordinates.

Secondly, Minato really didn't dare to do this.After all, changing border defenses is not a battle of swords and fire.Moreover, now he is not sure whether his Anbu are still loyal to him, and even the Hokage Guards are questionable this time.Otherwise, as Hokage, when everyone around him knew his attitude towards his son, he would not be able to find out that his son was gone by himself, and would need to avoid being investigated in person.

Namikaze Minato didn't understand what outrageous things he had done recently to deserve such a large-scale betrayal.

Yes, betrayal, Namikaze Minato knew he shouldn't think so, but he couldn't help it.He had even begun to doubt the possibility that his Kakashi had been swapped.

"Lord Naruto"

Minato opened his eyes suddenly, feeling frightened.Although he had warned himself that it would be better for him to stay alert for the time being before many things were clear, he still fell asleep casually after all.

"Lord Hokage."

The Hokage completely woke up at the second call. He looked at the Minister of the Capital who was handing the document back to him with a smile on his face, "You've finished reading."

"After reading it, I have no objection at all." After discovering that the thing in his hand was a complete and comprehensive set of rules and regulations, the minister finally understood why the Hokage did not read his draft, but was catching up on his sleep.

"You are really fast."

"Maybe it's because I sit close to Golden Flash today." The obedient minister flattered skillfully, "Ah, but I just saw that your face looks a little bad, sir. You haven't rested, okay? Please do it for the sake of fire." Please take care of your health."

"Be more concerned." The Hokage also greeted skillfully, "It's not that I haven't had a good rest, it's just that summer has passed and autumn is coming, so I feel a little bad."

"Autumn is easy to make people feel bad. I remember how a poem goes. Since ancient times, autumn has been a sad and lonely time, and the yellow flowers on the battlefield are especially fragrant."

Naruto, "▂."

There is no floral aroma, but the vegetable aroma is really there.

A town 10 hours from Konoha

Roadside restaurant

Sasuke looked at Yamato who was concentrating with his eyes closed, then at the ANBU ninja who was scribbling in a notebook, and then looked at Naruto who had already broken off several pairs of disposable chopsticks, and sighed, "Why do we have to go on an outing like this? Waiting at the restaurant for food to be served."

"Because Mr. Yamato just said that there is no shop like this after passing this village. Eat one more meal here and eat more food if you encounter real danger." Naruto seemed to adapt quickly, "Isn't that right? Yamato-sensei.”

Yamato closed his eyes and hummed.

"But." Sasuke still found it hard to accept, "It's just cooking noodles in the morning, and going out to a restaurant during the mission is just as casual as the last time Kakashi brought us out."

"Because we were bodyguards last time, and Grandpa Danas was in a hurry to go home and didn't care about the quality of life, so he kept eating solid food. If we work as bodyguards again in the future, and the employer is a businessman who wants to open a restaurant, can we still let him go? Besides, we are just changing defense this time, and it is not a secret mission." Naruto pouted and placed the chopsticks flat on his upper lip, "Isn't that right, Yamato-sensei?"

Yamato just hummed again.

Sasuke had nothing to say this time. He scratched his eyebrows and gave Naruto a kick under the table. "I can't do it anymore. Come on."

Naruto put the chopsticks in his mouth upright on his fingers and rolled his eyes, "But Mr. Yamato, what did you just say? If ninjas don't eat along the way, it's impossible to revitalize the economy along the way. The economy along the way is active, and the trade routes are What does it mean to have a safe contract and guarantee it?”

"I don't understand either. The higher-ups told me to do this." Yamato was still straightforward, "Anyway, the inns along the way are for businessmen and ninjas. Eat what you can and don't talk nonsense."

Naruto could only scratch his eyebrows this time, but this rarely willing child didn't know what giving up meant. He poked Yamato, "Then let me tell you my understanding, and you can see if it's right."

"Ah."

"In the past, the merchants were the foodies. In short, we ate with the merchants, and the ordinary people along the way, um, ah, never mind." Naruto was still unable to explain the reason in the end, "Anyway, Mr. Yamato, this mission is weird It's strange. Sasuke and I discussed this all the way, and my eyes almost popped out of my head. I always felt that you were hiding something from us. Since we are in the same team now, just tell the truth, why don't we share the burden together?"

"Not good." Yamato smiled.

"It's because we two are genin," Sasuke quickly answered. If that's what you mean, our so-called mission will not be like the Land of Waves, where you will use it as a prop to attract attention a and b. That’s it. "

"What a beautiful idea you have." Yamato drank, "We are just changing defenses this time. It is no different from other teams changing defenses."

"Then what does he do?" Naruto finally successfully brought the topic to the only stranger, "Switch defense and bring out an ANBU."

"He just happened to be okay, so I asked him to temporarily replace Sakura when she had diarrhea. Feel free to call him. He wants to change his career to become a medical ninja in the future." Yamato raised his thumb and closed his eyes again.

But the strange ANBU seemed to hear the mention of him, and finally raised his head and seemed to smile.Then he lowered his head and started drawing again.

"Uh-huh." Naruto and Sasuke could only continue to look at each other. As they looked at each other, Naruto couldn't help but blink first, "It's such a boring field service, Sasuke. I'd better join ANBU in the future."

However, Sasuke no longer wanted to pay attention to this little guy who could kill the Star if he didn't speak. Now he had more and more doubts in his heart. He always felt that the further away from Konoha, the more anxious he became, as if he was about to lose something important. Same.But at the same time, he also felt that it might just be that he was rarely out on the field, and he was not used to it, which led to strange delusions.

"Hey, Sasuke." Naruto was still lively.

But the upset Sasuke finally put his head aside, closed his eyes like Yamato, and waited for lunch. Although the sun is no longer hot in mid-September, it is still dazzling.

There must be a shadow under the sun

Time is still not in a hurry
