[Hokage] Secrets of the Fathers [Fourth Generation Center]

One day, two days, and three days passed.Time has officially entered October.

Today is the first day of October. As the beginning of a new work cycle, everyone in Konoha, with the Hokage Tower as the center, has been really busy for a day. It was not until night fell and there were no pedestrians on the street that they stopped silently. Rushing gears.But after the official business is done, the private affairs cannot be delayed. They have to go at any time. For example, the young ninja who is in love wants to go on a date. For example, the discount card for Ichiraku Ramen will expire today. For example, it took three days to delay the reply to the Hokage. Uchiha family meeting.

Uchiha main house, three basement floors, small conference room

"After all, you have agreed to give you another night. If you still can't decide, I will reply to the Fourth Generation of your own mind tomorrow." Itachi, the current leader of the Uchiha clan, once again looked at the room full of noisy people, as if he never felt sleepy. The Uchiha elders straightened their backs and restrained their second urge to yawn.Itachi was really sleepy. The family documents he had to read after work every day were not much easier than the work in the Hokage's office.

"At least you have to give me a word if the results can be obtained today." Itachi actually didn't mind the elders at home helping him advise, and neither did the Hokage.But Itachi's intuition told him that if he continued to grind like this, it would really be impossible for the "Great Elder" to

"Yeah." The great elder looked around, feeling that this scene was inexplicably familiar.Well, he was the only one who raised his head, "I believe that we Uchiha must not sit still and wait for death, and Uchiha must not suffer."

"Then you guys have to give me an idea." Itachi slammed the table and became more serious. He realized that his father's insistence on being paralyzed was not unreasonable, "Tell me."

"It's not that damned Namikaze Minato." The elder looked at the new clan leader whose eyes were already glowing red, and quickly interrupted his words, "No, it's the great and wise Yondaime Hokage. It was actually he who gave It’s hard to choose.”

"What's so hard to choose?" Itachi said sternly.

"Pros and cons."

"What's the point of talking for three days?" Itachi frowned, "What I want is an explanation."

The elder stroking his beard, of course he could directly say that no matter what our family chooses, it will be cheaper for that damn Namikaze Minato.And, Patriarch, the reason why we are delaying is because we don’t want you to have to count the money after you are sold. We just want that golden-haired fox to know that even though the new Patriarch is young, all his family members are not dead yet.But to tell the truth like this, the elder thought of the missing people, his granddaughter who had married a poor boy from the Hyuga family, and his beautiful little great-grandson who was over one year old, but he still didn't speak.

"Big Elder"

"You are the leader of the clan." The elder waved his sleeves, raised his head, and glanced around slightly. He felt that the scene and conversation were more familiar now, and he always felt that he didn't know when he had seen the same thing before.

But the old man's stunned look made Itachi even more angry. Itachi still couldn't restrain his chakra, and with a snap, the table under him split into wood like an axe.Itachi looked at the row of black and white heads on the back of his subordinates, followed the example of the great elder, waved his sleeves, and left this troubled basement.He realized that he shouldn't look down upon these people just because they had no objections to him and his father.Just seeing how disrespectful they were to the Yondaime-sama, he didn't deserve it either.

"What's wrong Itachi? You're so angry."

"Sorry, Mom." Itachi came out of the stairs and saw Uchiha Mikoto who was pruning shrubs in the yard.

"The meeting didn't go well." Mikoto rattled the big scissors, "Don't worry, Mom believes this is not your problem. In fact, your father would be so angry after every meeting with those people when he was young. So Itachi, you will get used to it gradually."

"Probably." Itachi answered, but he didn't think he would have that day. "Mom, it's already very late. Why did you come out to mow the garden at this time?"

"I was bored during the day, so I slept a little longer, and as soon as I lay on that bed, I thought of your father." Mikoto winked at her eldest son, "It's been a hard day, would you like to have some midnight snack before going to bed, Itachi?"

"No, I'm not hungry at all." Itachi picked up the broom and helped his mother sweep the cut branches and leaves aside, and then snatched the scissors from Mikoto's hand, "If you don't want to go back to the master bedroom, you can sleep in my room first. Sasuke and I are going to bed - Sasuke must be asleep now."

"I went to bed after dinner. He spent another day digging out the sewers today. It was miserable." Mikoto lowered her head slightly and grabbed Itachi's sleeve. "You enter the house gently and don't disturb him."

"Yes." Itachi let his mother hold him and walked until he reached the door of his room, "Good night, mother."

"Good night." Mikoto stood on tiptoes and suddenly pressed a good night kiss to Itachi's forehead. Looking at her indifferent eldest son, she smiled again, "I'm glad you didn't hide away like you did when you were a child."

"I'm not a child anymore." Itachi looked at his mother's happy face and suddenly felt that he was indeed quite annoying when he was a child.

"Okay, don't worry about mom, she is a tough Konoha kunoichi."

"Then why are you unwilling to work anymore?" Itachi couldn't help but ask, "The great elder said that if you are still willing to continue to be the acting security minister, I won't have to choose a new position."

"Because mom wants to move you and Sasuke's places. We can't let Sasuke grow up in a few years. There must be three Uchiha sitting on the high-level meeting table in Konoha." Mikoto lifted her long black hair, "Mom, I am It's amazing. If I hadn't married your dad and then had you right away, maybe mom and I would have gained a majestic name on the battlefield, like the Fugaku family's spatula Valkyrie."

""

"Why, you don't believe it."

No, it's just that the nickname is a bit weird.Itachi complained silently, silently hid his figure, silently watched his mother sleep, silently returned to his father's small study, took out the newly engraved name seal in his arms, and stamped the family documents.

And now it's almost the second day.

The old house of Konoha Hatake in the Land of Fire

The young new clan leader is not the only one who can sleep well in the middle of the night.

"Teacher, don't run out without clothes after taking a shower."

"Don't say things that can easily be misunderstood. I'm wearing underwear." Minato slid onto the bed and covered himself with a blanket - he had to take them off to sleep anyway.

"During the physical examination at the hospital yesterday, have you forgotten what the doctor said? The temperature has cooled down. Be careful not to catch cold in your abdomen. If you think your stomach is no longer painful, it is considered cured. Don't blame the doctor if it relapses again." Kaka Xi caught up and threw her pajamas at the foot of the bed.

"You are getting more and more verbose, Miss Kakashi." Minato stretched his legs to put on his pajamas.

"Do you regret arranging so much work for the obedient little rabbit?" Kakashi unfolded his pajamas, "Arms."

"Yes, Miss Hatake Kakashi." Our Hokage seemed to be in a good mood today. Not only did he accept his disciple's kindness, he also praised him, "I really don't know which silly boy will marry our filial daughter in the future. ha."

Kakashi ignored his teacher, although he knew that his teacher really wanted to see him blow up.

But how could the elders with bad personalities stop, "Kakashi, Kakashi, have you ever thought about what kind of husband you want to marry in the future? Teacher Wang Zi can also help you. First, I will create a pair of shiny ones for you. Glass slipper, when you seduce the prince to dance with you, leave a shoe for him to find you all over the world. Then, the great Konoha ninja will send you back and get a high mission fee. "

"A very good way to make money." Kakashi still didn't get angry. He waved his hand, took the large enamel bowl from the secret guard on duty, and blew on it.

Our Hokage immediately yawned when he saw it, "I'm going to sleep after working overtime so late. Kakazi, please go back to sleep too."

"Ostrich tactics are useless." Kakashi was unmoved.

"I'll say it again, my stomach problem is gone." Minato folded his hands and closed his eyes.

 

"So this is not a stomach medicine. It will replenish your energy and blood and help you sleep. Shizune also said that you are still a little weak."

"Didn't that girl say I was healthy during my physical examination last month?"

"Health and virtuality are not contradictory." Kakashi pulled the teacher up. "For the last time, if you don't want to drink medicine, you have to wait for me to call Naruto. That kid has been dealing with sewer garbage for several days. Every day Wash your hands when you go home, Zi Zi, it’s time to hate boring D-level missions.”

"So let him sleep well and don't disturb him." Minato seemed to be too sleepy to open his eyes.

"Get up and take medicine if you know you're afraid." Kakashi looked sideways with one eye.

Minato's father grabbed the bowl and said, "I'm going to drink it every night from today on, right?"

"Yes." Kakashi pulled up a stool and sat beside the bed, "It won't hurt to patch it up."

""

"Otherwise you will take a back seat tomorrow. Since we can't avoid staying up late and working overtime from time to time, we must take some positive measures." Kakashi said still minding his own business.

"What's a positive move? Yesterday's physical examination. Your health report is also very interesting. Chakra and physical reserves are not enough, so I said you have lacked exercise recently. How about running 200 laps around Konoha now." Minato looked at the dark and sticky concoction in the cup, shook it, and drank it in one breath.

Kakashi took the bowl and handed him the water glass, "Tomorrow, remember to drink slowly and slowly to help with absorption."

"Yes, Miss Kakashi." Minato swallowed the bitter taste in his mouth with a sip of water, "I can sleep now, I still have work tomorrow."

"Well, you sleep." Kakashi took back the cup, "I'll keep you awake."

"There are guards, Shisui will be back in a moment."

"I'll leave when he comes back. Anyway, I, the AN Minister, don't have much work to do tomorrow, so I have nothing to do."

"Huh." Our Hokage pretended not to hear his disciple's sour words and quickly fell asleep.

Kakashi sat on the chair as he said and looked at the teacher silently.It wasn't until the old clock in the distant living room rang three times that he waited for the Hokage's guard captain to ask, "Why are you back so late?"

The secret guard with red eyes took off his mask and opened his mouth, "What do you think the internal security of Konoha is? Did the Yondaime-sama tell you today when the new security minister will take office?"

"Isn't it true that you have always been part-time?" Kakashi picked up Uchiha Shisui's dog mask and looked at it up and down.

"Then I will become the first person to die from exhaustion in Konoha."

"Oh, a good opportunity to go down in history."

"" Shisui didn't answer. He felt like he was choked again. Well, whoever's disciple is his disciple. Sooner or later, Kakashi will be more choked than Naruto.

"Why don't you say anything." But our AN minister did not let go so easily of the guard captain who stole half of his work.

"There's nothing to say." Shisui waved his hand, "Go to sleep, you are an ANBU field officer. Although there is usually nothing to do, there are many emergencies. Do you think so, my ANBU chief? "

Kakashi felt a toothache when he heard it, but he really couldn't do anything to Shisui.So Kakashi moved the only chair in the room and turned to go out. Then he turned around and moved the coffee table and sofa by the window - the Hokage Guards are not the Hokage's disciples. "Of course the warning is Are you going to stand at the door and squat on the rafters, captain of the guard?"

"Of course." Shisui, who had been standing all day, prayed silently. He winked at the stingy Kakashi, "Anyone who does evil will be punished. Be careful if you walk too much at night and meet ghosts."

So our sensitive Kakashi sneezed again as expected.But this time he didn't collapse the manhole cover and fall into the sewer, nor was he kidnapped by the sudden appearance of the prank king Uzumaki Naruto. Instead, he suffered from insomnia.

It's really uncomfortable to feel sleepy but unable to fall asleep.Kakashi was lying on the bed tossing and turning with his eyes closed, bored and listening to the various noises outside the window, and finally got up.He went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and drank the juice Naruto had prepared for his father.Then he walked around to Gaara's window and glanced at the one-tailed Jinchuuriki who had fallen asleep and slept in the corner - a pair of green eyes that received the reflection from the red panda.Kakashi shrank his head, thinking about whether the red panda was a cat.Finally, he walked into the toilet, closed the door with his backhand, rolled his eyes and looked left and right, picked up a flashlight, and started to form seals. "Brush", he arrived in front of a door.

This door is a traditional wooden frame sliding door, and the so-called door panels are just four screens.There are some mountains and rivers painted on it, and in the lower right corner is written "Ten Thousand Valleys and Pine Wind".Kakashi didn't like the door, but he couldn't help but push it open to see if it was broken.The answer is no.It has not been bitten by insects and mice, and the iron hinges have not rusted to the point of motionlessness. Even the brick wall behind the door, built up against the door frame, stands solidly.Kakashi felt relieved, closed the door, and turned around.

A few steps after turning around, there is another door. It is also traditional, but it only has two screens, and it is painted with plum blossoms.However, it seems that the painter's vision is not very good, and many red spots were not painted on the curved branch diagonally rising from the lower right.But Kakashi's target was not it, but a small chest of drawers next to the door.

The small chest of drawers is also an old thing. Unlike the cheap wooden furniture that is popular in Konoha now, it is actually made of solid wood with carved patterns, and the pattern makes it look expensive.But Kakashi didn't care about this. He opened the drawer roughly, then he bent his eyes and slid his fingers around. He finally selected a book, picked it up, sat down cross-legged, and started reading. Okay, hide it. It's a book. What's in this cabinet is a whole set of intimate paradise, brand new

Kakashi bit the flashlight in excitement, and recalled the little cuties that the teacher found and destroyed from under the bed, in the cabinet, and in the toilet tank, "If you don't let me see it, I won't read it in front of you. This is where I read." I feel a little stuffy, I should bring a mini fan or something next time."

But soon, Kakashi no longer wanted the fan.The room he was in used to be a small living room. The front door leading to the yard had been blocked with bricks. The back door led to the bedroom. The only window in the bedroom was also blocked with bricks from the outside. Moreover, this hall had never been blocked with bricks. None have windows.So, where does the wind that makes him feel cold come from?

Kakashi swallowed, and first denied Naruto's prank. Naruto had no idea that there was such a thing in the back wall of the backyard of Hatake's old house.It won't be the teacher. If the teacher finds out that he is here, he will never follow him.Then, it can't be true

Kakashi put down the book and lifted the forehead protector from his eyes, his eyes glowing red.

The roof obviously didn't leak, and neither did the four walls.Finally, Kakashi set his sights on the bedroom door painted with plum blossoms.Kakashi stretched out his hand and paused at the crack of the door for a long time, indeed feeling the flow of air.

"It couldn't have been caused by the last rain inside, right?" Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief, frowned again, and opened the door.

Inside the door, as always, a piece of white cloth is spread on the wooden floor in mottled wrinkles. Behind the cloth is a similarly traditional carved double bed. The bed is also covered with a white cloth that has accumulated thick dust, and behind the bed is the quilt. Kakashi was concerned about the leaky window.

Kakashi first checked that there were no leaks in the roof, then went around the bed and the white cloth, uncovered the same white cloth on the window, and searched carefully. He searched for who knows how long, but did not find any gaps, "I You can’t be dreaming, right?”

Kakashi quickly took out a kunai and gave it to himself. It was painful and bleeding.

"Shisui gave me a genjutsu." Kakashi rolled his pupils, but found no clues.

"I'm scaring myself." Kakashi nodded, closed the door, and decided to take the risk and take the book back to read. The teacher would bring it back when he wakes up.But as soon as he lowered his head to pick up the book, the cold wind came again.

Kakashi felt his hands trembling while making seals, "Konoha is indeed a bit cold in October, hehehe."

I walk a lot at night and always have to
