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

The sky continues to be sunny

Metkai and his disciple Locke Lee finished lunch and walked out of the door of the Konoha cafeteria.As usual, he enjoyed eating the most, squatting at the door of the cafeteria, picking his teeth and basking in the sun.But today he couldn't do it.Because the door of the cafeteria was completely covered by a huge shadow.This shadow comes from the Hokage Building, the new one under construction. It can be clearly seen no matter where in Konoha, even outside Konoha.

Kai had been looking forward to this towering steel and concrete structure. As the Yondaime-sama said, it represented the strength and determination of Konoha, even if it was as ugly as a thin enoki mushroom.Of course, as the project progresses now, the logistics engineering team has surrounded the enoki mushroom and set up short chimneys from large to small layer by layer from bottom to top, until it turned into a thin conical tower - Or there was an enoki mushroom stuck in the chimney.

In short, the diameter of this tall chimney is more than twice as large as the enoki mushroom, and of course the shadow it casts is also more than twice as large.

This made Kai even more inexplicably afraid, even more frightened than the day he heard Xiao Li recite the motto of Perseverance Ninja, and then hearing Xiao Li say that every graduate of the Konoha Ninja School would recite that famous quote.

"Mr. Kai."

"Xiao Li, we have to change places to bask in the sun today." Kai suddenly felt that he couldn't smile, but he still grinned and gritted his teeth, "Go to the training ground, as long as you can still sweat, your youth will last forever. End"

"Teacher Kai, what you said makes sense." Locke Li raised his thick eyebrows and took out a small notebook and pencil stub. "It's the famous saying of that sage."

"The most passionate ninja in Konoha, the crazy Adai."

"I wonder if you, the most passionate person in Konoha, aren't you, teacher?" Xiao Li licked the tip of his pen.

"He died, and I was the first one." Kai pulled the end of the pencil out of Xiao Li's mouth, "How many times have I told you, chewing a pencil will lead to lead poisoning. You are already very stupid, brat."

"Oh." Xiao Li felt that the teacher was a little uninterested today, so he wisely stopped talking.

But Kai still used violence against his disciple. He grabbed Rock Li by the back of his neck and dragged him away again.He was thinking as he ran, thinking about Matt Day, the deadbeat father of his family.Thinking about it, Jiulun rounded his arms and threw the little Li in his hand hard, "Go, my disciple, for the sake of youth and dreams, go around Konoha a hundred times, Xiaoxiaoshi."

"Okay okay"

Kai watched his disciple dexterously adjust his body in mid-air, then land and run away like a cannonball, and suddenly felt very satisfied.

"Perhaps I felt quite happy when Matt Dai threw me out." Kai looked at his rough and generous palms, tugged at the long black and slightly curly hair on his arms, and touched his wide With a wide chin, he recalled the face of his father in his impression, and felt that it was time to try growing a beard, "Yo Xi, it seems that I haven't said hello to him for a long time, so go ahead if you want, youth, It’s about action”

But by the time Matkai came to say hello to his father, it was already sunset and he had finished an afternoon of special training for Xiao Li.At this time, thousands of households were cooking smoke, and the Memorial Monument was less crowded than at noon and midnight. It was also the time when Kakashi, who was habitually late, liked to come "late" the most.

"Why are you so noisy when you sweep the tomb?" Hatake Kaka had just been quiet for a while when he saw a yellow wild chrysanthemum in Kai's hand. The branches were broken and the petals were broken. He was running this way - I really wanted to. Fight with him.

"Because youth means vitality." Kai placed the small chrysanthemum that had been damaged by the wind in front of the monument of Konoha 46, next to the lily that Kakashi placed there, "My dad doesn't want to see it. The way I groaned - you seem to be very troubled, Kakashi."

"Quack, you should first think about how to meet my teacher. Tsk tsk, the whole Konoha is waiting to see your joke." Kakashi took a step to the left, where is the monument of Konoha's 45th year , and this time there was no use of it, "Isn't that right, the future captain of Konoha's field service?"

"I'm really just here to report on my duties - the Fourth Generation can naturally meet me when he wants to see me. As a ninja, obeying orders is the first virtue." Kai wiped the "Mate" on his 46-year-old coat, and then I compared it with "Nohara Lin" two rows away, and then wiped it carefully twice.

Kakashi was noncommittal.

But Kai never knew what "asking for trouble" meant. He poked Kakashi with his elbow, who was rubbing "Uchiha Obito", "Hey."

"what."

"Tell me honestly, why did the Fourth Generation leave me alone this time? Have you ever let me know?"

"Isn't it a virtue for you to obey orders?" Kakashi rolled his eyes.

"That's what I said." Kai was actually very frightened. "Don't be so stingy. Good brothers are loyal. Some time ago, well, I never arranged with everyone why you were spanked."

"I have never been spanked." Kakashi gritted his teeth and controlled his hands not to form the Thousand-Year Kill Seal.

"Okay, okay, you didn't." Kai waved his hand, "But I mean it this time."

But Kakashi really didn't know that weight-bearing exercise every day took up a lot of his energy and time. "You should ask Naruto. Anyway, that child prefers to play with you since he was a child."

"That's because you are always lifeless in your bones. Children are most sensitive." Kai almost rolled his eyes. He was not Kakashi, so he would not be stupid enough to plot against his son under his father's nose.

"Anyway, if you are in a hurry, just find Naruto." Kakashi sighed, "He is the only one in Konoha who can cure his father."

"Um, just ask for me, I'm not in a hurry." It's only his fault that he's not in a hurry. Although Metkai is recognized as having a big heart and having a hairy chest, he is recognized for his enthusiasm, but he still can't hold back the power of life and death over you. Your immediate boss gives you a cold look. Of course, being ignored by your boss is nothing, but Konoha is a village after all, and a village is a collective. Even if a group goes on an outing, it is impossible to satisfy everyone.If there is dissatisfaction, there will be a dispute. If there is a dispute and you can't break up, there will be gossip. If there are too many gossips, the false things will become true.

"Why did it suddenly stop making noise?" Kakashi finished erasing the names of all the people he knew on the tombstone, and saw that Metkai was already squatting aside and drawing circles, "Childish."

"Youth never grows old." Kai shook his dark watermelon head and moved his dark, thick eyebrows, but did not grin or give a thumbs up, "Kakashi, do you think I should go to the Fourth Generation to see you?" A mistake”

"" Kakashi looked at Gai's rare sad face and wanted to laugh, "You deserve it. I asked you to come home for dinner a long time ago. If you didn't come sooner, you come more often. I can't do anything if the guards dare to stop you." I understand, where do you have such big opinions about my teacher?"

Kai pouted. He wanted to tell Kakashi that it was ridiculous to talk about fairness and justice to someone like you who always stands on the "satisfied" side of the group. Anyway, "you don't understand even if I say it."

Kakashi glanced at Gai, "Crazy."

Kai also glanced sideways at Kakashi and continued to squat down and draw circles. Kai really wanted to admit his mistake, because what Kakashi didn't understand didn't necessarily mean that the Hokage didn't understand.It should be said that the Yondaime-sama knew from the beginning that his Mattkai had different ideas from others. As a ninja, he definitely did not think that life was more important than his mission. He was willing to die to protect Konoha. The "eight" of their Matt family The art of "Door Dunjia" is originally about exchanging lives for lives.But is mission really more important than friendship, love or even family affection?

Kai believed that he would choose his companion between the mission and Kakashi, the mission and his disciple.Just like the White Fang of Konoha back then, the tall elite Jonin uncle who always had a cold face across from his family, and Kakashi's father, even if he ended up being forced to commit suicide.

"Okay, okay, show that expression to someone, as if you have been wronged a lot." The more Kakashi looked at Gai squatting there with his thighs crossed, the more disgusted he felt, "I'll ask you something later after dinner. Ask, explain in advance, the teacher has been talking to everyone except Naruto recently.

His temper is a bit bad, no, he is very bad. "

"Hey hey hey." Kai immediately stood up with a backflip and gave a thumbs up, "That's enough bro."

"idiot."

"Hehehehehe, Kakashi, let's go and run 100 laps around Konoha together before dinner. I will definitely beat you this time, hahahaha. Youth requires sweat and blood." Metkai laughed exaggeratedly, as long as Just ask Kakashi. As soon as Kakashi asked the Yondaime, he knew that he was asking for poor little Kaikai. If Kakashi can give him some reply, it will prove that the Hokage has received him. Want to "apologise" message, and he can go.Kai thought about it for several days, and finally figured out that an ordinary ninja doesn't care whether you think the mission is important or the person is important, but a high-ranking Konoha executive

The commemorative monument has become a forest

"Don't be soft-hearted."

Fire Country Konoha Hokage Rock

The wind is rustling, the night is dim, and thousands of lights are on

"I'm not soft-hearted, it's you who are too ridiculous." Namikaze Minato turned around with his hands behind his back, his home coat fluttering in the wind, "It's just evidence, Zhiwei, I want evidence, I don't want your reasoning, Ming Mingyi At first, you were afraid that I would expand the scope of surveillance and accuse good people at will."

"I was afraid that you were just looking for an excuse to exclude dissidents." Zhiwei told the truth simply, his big cloak only being lifted up by the wind.

"Am I that kind of person?"

"Don't worry." Zhiwei stood upwind. He wanted to say that although Minato Namikaze is not that kind of person, his body is obviously in decline and he has not even chosen a successor as Hokage. It is natural that he should take advantage of him. High prestige paves the way for future generations.But how could Zhiwei really say such words, "Minato, I apologize for my doubts about you before. But the situation is different now. After ruling out the impossible, I really can't guarantee the rest. They’ll be fine.”

"But please Shimi, those are my Anbu and Hokage guards. Everyone is a strictly selected Konoha elite." Minato continued to spin in circles. He really wanted to slap the report of Aburame Shimi in his hand on his face, " You checked for more than half a month and then told me that except for Kakashi and Naruto, all the others around me are possible. Zhiwei, if I need this kind of answer, I need to suppress it. The personnel transfer of so many people has been rumored in Konoha for half a month, don't you think it's funny just to keep you by my side so as not to alert others?"

"It's not funny, but it's a fact. Your current situation is more dangerous than you think." Aburame Shimi looked at the moonlight and sighed, "Minato, I saw your calendar. In a few days, Minato The country sent people to discuss the economic plan. Don't let people from the capital come to Konoha slowly, you go directly to the capital. You haven't been to the capital for a while."

"What do you mean?" Minato frowned and stopped.

"I'm afraid I've already alerted the enemy." Zhiwei frowned as he looked at the goosebumps on Minato's arms, "You're wearing too little."

"You don't care what I wear." Minato pushed Zhiwei away and started circling the third generation's stone head.

Zhiwei once again stood upwind, "I really don't know if I don't check. I'm shocked when I check. I really admire you. There are so many traitors from other countries in the ANBU. Even the demon Zabuza was sent to Konoha to become an ANBU for you. Patrolled every day.”

"Those are Kakashi's people. Besides, most of the people who surrendered are doing field work. Their ninjutsu characteristics are too obvious. It's really difficult to do the blame task without them. Zaizhan is an exception, and he is only responsible for peripheral patrols. .”

"What about those dead people under Shisui? Shisui, I know this is the case, but I really don't know when you took in the dead again."

"There is one person who was found innocent after I sentenced him to death. I can't really let him die for the sake of the Konoha system and my dignity. There are two others, one is Iwa Ninja's nail, and the other is Kumo Ninja's. Nails, keep them around to spread false information."

"Okay, you really dare." Zhiwei was helpless, "Then what's going on with Medicine Master Kabuto? Good guy, three spies are talking about it."

"The experimental information Orochimaru left behind is too precious. Someone must be responsible for continuing it. Don't worry, I have carved an explosive seal on his heart. If he disobeys, he will be destroyed at any time."

"Okay, this is reasonable for you, so what does it mean for you to mix up the roots and ANBU?" Zhiwei was really helpless, "Senior Danzo was trained as a dead soldier, and they are indeed loyal to Konoha. , but Danzo was never convinced by you until his death, right? Being loyal to Konoha is not loyal to you, so you are really not afraid of him laying a trap for you."

""

"Besides, there is indeed thunder." Zhiwei sighed, "When you released Xuanjian and the others to fill the upper management of the administrative system, you actually used Gen as a guard, okay? You chose a personal guard and gave him a code name. Within a few days, he dared to take advantage of you being sleepy after taking medicine and stab you in the heart with a poisoned weapon. He really thought your charisma was invincible."

"It's better than you being alone all day anyway." Minato muttered in a low voice, "Hey, he didn't actually poke the fly in the end, and he even carried me all the way back."

"He's about to stab him."

"Die." Minato spread his hands, "I don't want to either, but Konoha is short of people. What can I do? Tsunade-senpai and Jiraiya-sensei are both running outside to listen to the instructions and not listen to the announcement. Haiyi Shikaku Fugaku Hizashi Hizashi and even Kakashi have old injuries, and the rest are either too low-status or too young. If I don’t transfer Genma and other members of the guard to various departments to help, what do you think I should do?”

"" This time Zhiwei didn't know what to say, because he was one of the people who often ran around in Konoha and couldn't find his home. "In short, I didn't know that the composition of your guards and ANBU was so complicated before."

""

"Now that I know, I can only say that your fate is really great."

"You can't accomplish anything without taking some risks." After Minato calmed down, he finally felt how strong the wind was on Hokage Rock. He folded his arms to protect his stomach, and began to regret not wearing his jounin vest, "By the way, You just suggested going to the capital to talk about your plan."

"Yeah." Aburame Shiwei pulled down his sunglasses, "You take Kakashi and Naruto and their team to the capital. That kid Yamato is still trustworthy. There is a reason for the rest of the guard to stay. We're in Konoha. I'll start with Shisui. I can't prove that Shisui is fine, but he can go to Morino Hiki to prove himself. If the torture team says he's fine, I'll work with him to check the others one by one. It's more reliable. If you believe, continue Ibixi."

"What a stupid idea." Minato didn't like Aburame's plan, "If you do this, how can you ensure that those who are obviously loyal to me won't be resentful and that in the end there will be no traitors in the guard."

"So you have to go to the capital." Zhi smiled, "You will be blamed for your death. I will take the blame for the Hokage. Before I go to the capital, I hope that the older Aburame Zhiwei can help his guards to improve discipline. Because there are indeed rumors flying all over the sky recently, such as How did others know that Kakashi was beaten in his own yard? But that lonely old guy was so eager to become a guard captain that he did very bad things, but in the end it was the Hokage who returned from a business trip who set things right."

Minato knocked on his forehead and calculated the pros and cons, "That means the personnel changes will still have to be delayed."

"There is no need to delay the field service and security. It's just that your new guard captain will not take office until I am beaten by you."

"That Dingzuo's wife will skin you alive."

"Wait a minute, Ding Zao is really your guard captain." Zhiwei suddenly had an idea, "Hey, Minato, who is taking over from Fugaku?"

"Ah, I'll leave for the capital early tomorrow morning."

"Wave Wind Minato"

"Don't worry."
