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

Konoha 61

Fire Country Konoha

Hatake old house

Snow lives in Dan.

In the past two days, the snow that had fallen on the road had turned into water visibly under the sun, leaving only the treetops and roofs covered in white.

Kakashi Hatake stepped on the remaining thin snow on his roof, looking at the faint smoke in the leaves from a distance.The warm smoke was more conspicuous than usual in the cold wind, especially the Konoha cafeteria, which came straight out of the big, fat chimney and flew to the height of the new Hokage Tower on the side before gradually spreading out. And the more it spreads, the more the smell of fried cabbage and lean meat noodles penetrates into the nose of a well-trained ninja.

"Gulu." Finally, Kakashi still couldn't control his stomach and let it grow on its own.He didn't like eating in the cafeteria, but he wasn't as obsessed with the taste of the cafeteria as the teacher. Besides, it was breakfast time and he was hungry. He couldn't think of any additional meaning when he was hungry.It's just that Kakashi can't crawl to look for food yet, because according to the training task book given to him by the teacher yesterday, he still hasn't completed a little bit of today's morning exercise.

A hundred leg raises, that's all.

Kakashi breathed in and out, adjusted the muscles of his body, formed seals with his hands, and rekindled the faint chakra on the soles of his feet.Then I spotted a small pine tree in the backyard.

Ornamental pines are never very tall, and their thin branches are bent at an angle by the snow.But Kakashi still jumped up to the sloping treetop without mercy. He immediately leaned on it and stepped on it with his left and right legs 100 times quickly and accurately. The goal was to step on the snow without leaving a trace. This is wood. It is an advanced version of Ye's traditional chakra control training, climbing trees and treading water, specifically for elite jonins like him who use chakra to the point of eating and drinking.

Kakashi hasn't done such boring training on purpose for nearly ten years.In fact, he had passed this level ten years ago under the strict supervision of his teacher. When he was at his best, he could even step on Shiranui Genma's head and come back, without being really caught by that idiot. Back.

But now

For a mature adult ninja, even the Hokage would be envious and jealous if his chakra could surge at the age of 30.But for ninjutsu, the more uncontrolled chakra in the body, the more powerful the detonating charm tied to the body is, just like a jinchuriki.

Of course Kakashi does not have such exaggerated uncontrollable power like Gaara and Naruto.Moreover, what he gained was not external force, but the body's honest reward for years of unremitting training.But Kakashi, who finished raising his legs in one breath, once again looked at the smoke from the distance. He didn't want to see the broken branches under his feet and the snow residue on the ground under the tree.

It's a pity that he will have to see it sooner or later if he doesn't want to see it. It's not like both of his eyeballs were removed, and he can't hang on a tree for the rest of his life.

"Kakashi, are you finished?"

Kakashi glanced at the female medical ninja Kato Shizune who had been standing on the pile of rocks beside him for the whole morning, and the snow layer under her feet that was still intact. He sighed and jumped down from the tree. "Bang." Not only did the snow break on the ground, but also the floor tiles. "Caracara" up.

Shizune frowned.

Kakashi put the weights he had taken off before the leg-raising test back into his trousers.

Shizune frowned even more, "You shouldn't be carrying weights so early."

"When Teacher used to train me, he just put weights on me." Kakashi knocked on the steel plate. "He said it was effective quickly, and it really worked."

"But you don't seem to have made much progress now."

"Maybe I'm still not used to it." Kakashi tied his leggings again, rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his hand.

Shizune tacitly lit up her green chakra and pressed it. She checked and recorded it in a small book. She also asked, "Do you feel any discomfort when using ninjutsu?"

"Nothing."

"That's good." Shizune put down her hand, opened the medicine box, took out a syringe and shook it at Kakashi.

Kakashi looked at the big silver needle that was more than ten centimeters long, and took off his blindfold resignedly.

Shizune opened a small slit in Kakashi's closed eyelids, carefully inserted the needle at a good angle, then slowly pushed the medicine while touching Kakashi's loose eyelids, "How do you feel?"

"It's okay." Although this was not the first time, he couldn't tell whether it was awkward or uncomfortable. Kakashi felt a warm liquid quickly fill the hollows in his eyes. After a while, It slowly began to solidify, as if a round jelly had been stuffed into it, and it cooled down again. His orbicularis oculi muscles were still swollen and tightened, "How long do I have to fight this thing?"

Shizune pulled the needle out, "Until we find a way to repair the nerves in your eyes."

"So this injection actually has no practical effect." Kakashi put on the eye mask and frowned.

"It's still somewhat useful. At least it won't make your eyelids collapse. If they collapse, it would be disfigured."

"Compared with being disfigured, it is more difficult to accept that I will be unable to live without medication for the rest of my life."

"Why is it just a lifetime? Maybe there will be a solution soon." Shizune looked at Kakashi's stern expression, but it was more like seeing a cat in despair.So she couldn't help but laugh.Yes, when you leave home and return home, you suddenly find that the people and things you knew before are completely different from what you remembered, and your hometown will become strange.But once you can find even a little bit of déjà vu, the strangeness will quickly clear away. After these days of close tracking and treatment of Kakashi, Kato Shizune seems to be able to find some traces of her life in Konoha. It overlaps with the little devil with dead fish eyes in the memory.However, this has nothing to do with a medical ninja, "Furthermore, Kakashi, the medical ninja can only obey the will of the injured patient and the Hokage unconditionally. It seems that the Fourth Generation has not told you, but your eyes Before and after the operation, he paid special attention to your face."

After hearing this, Kakashi could only sigh, "I'll talk to him later."

Shizune didn't think Kakashi, who had evolved from a rebellious and awkward boy into a filial young man, had the ability to convince his teacher.But what does that have to do with her? As long as she does her own thing as Teacher Tsunade said and meddles less in other people's business, especially the business between high-level officials, she can save a lot of trouble. "So, this morning's treatment That’s it. I’ll come back in the afternoon.”

"Oh, okay." Kakashi sent the female medic-nin who was carrying the medical kit out the door, then walked straight to the kitchen and drank a few sips of water after spending the whole morning. He was really hungry and his chest was pressed against his back.

But he still couldn't feed himself quickly enough.Because Naruto was not at home, no one except Gaara would pay attention to what else was in the refrigerator.But Gaara will not come back from shopping for groceries, and his teacher probably won't be interested in cooking alone for other jinchuriki or mere disciples, "Come here."

"Yes, Hatake-sama."

“Is there anything to eat?”

"Ah, yes." The ANBU on duty reached into his pocket.

But Kakashi looked at the round, black soldier food pill in his subordinate's hand, and instantly felt that he was actually not that hungry, "Well, I don't have enough reserves with me just in case I can't do anything rashly. Please help me go to the cafeteria to get a nutritious breakfast." "

However, the ANBU didn't move, and just pointed at the Hokage's bedroom.

Kakashi felt a little embarrassed, "You are just an ANBU on duty outside, and you are not a guard. Go get the food and bring it back with the Hokage."

"Send it to Yondaime-sama's hospital." Anbu pursed his lips, but still ran quickly to the cafeteria.

Kakashi then put away his raised feet, adjusted his mask, gently opened the door and walked into the teacher's bedroom.The room was dark, and there was no sign of dawn at all.It was even warmer by the heater in the corner, unlike in winter.All in all, this is a great place to fall asleep.Kakashi, who got up early, couldn't help but yawn, nodded to the red-eyed secret guard in front of the window, and walked a few steps closer to the teacher's bedside. Sure enough, his head was covered again.However, compared to the usual hair loss, today I have an extra hand, and there is a small alarm clock in the hand. The alarm clock stays at 6 o'clock in the morning.

"You agreed to watch me train today," Kakashi whispered, taking the alarm clock out of the teacher's hand, and then saw the hand retracting into the quilt like a spring.

""

Kakashi looked up at the wall clock. It was already 7:05, or

Xu, he should wake up the teacher now.After all, my vacation was canceled yesterday, and I have to go back to the office at 8 o'clock today.However, after hesitating for more than ten seconds, he just gently helped the teacher pull down the quilt. Based on his experience, it should be enough to sleep for another 20 minutes.

But Minato Namikaze in the quilt didn't think so.No, it should be said that the person under the quilt was not Namikaze Minato at all, but Uchiha Shisui.As soon as Shisui saw Kakashi coming out of the room, he opened the quilt and jumped up, kneeling down to salute himself in the shadow.Uchiha Shisui in the shadow, no, it was Namikaze Minato who gritted his teeth and let out a long sigh. He really hoped to see Kakashi kicking in the door the next second. However, "I already know that losing Sharingan What kind of influence does the eye have on Kakashi, but with the transformation technique and a basic illusion technique, he can't even recognize me, and the two of us are obviously very different in breath, cough."

"Kakashi just didn't expect you to lie to him." Shisui handed over warm water.

"But his enemies and opponents will all lie to him." Minato moistened his dry throat, and his voice was still a little hoarse, "The Eye Technique is really convenient. You can turn your eyes to see what is true or false, and you don't have to use your brain at all. Don’t blame him for becoming a little dependent in the past ten years or so. It’s my fault, maybe if I could have paid attention to this problem earlier, Kakashi wouldn’t have grown up to be 30 years old and still have such straight brain cells.”

Shishui nodded.

But Minato looked at Shisui, who actually had relatively upright brain cells, and patted his subordinate on the shoulder, "Really, compared to Fugaku, no matter you, Itachi, or Sasuke, they all opened their eyes too early. "

"So I was once as childish as Kakashi"

"No." Minato patted Shisui's shoulder hard again, "It's you. Now I have to go out for a while. Play me until work time. I'll wait for you in the office. Also, don't lower the difficulty for Kakashi privately. I have to teach him a lesson this time, otherwise if I scold him for being stupid, he still won’t believe me.”

"Yes, sir, but" Uchiha Shisui watched the object of his protection disappear, swallowed the word "breakfast", and had to get back under the quilt.Anyway, with Hokage's current "wisdom", he should know that he should eat well if he doesn't want to suffer from stomachache again.

So after enough time for a meal

Konoha, the Country of Fire, Aburame Shiwei's House

Aburame Shimi looked at the unfolded newspaper in her hand and the waistband of her pants that was pulled back to her ankles, then looked at Namikaze Minato who was already on the ground holding a big red apple in his mouth, and blinked hard.

"I'm not interested in old men, don't throw electricity at me randomly." Minato looked at the black foot hair on Zhiwei's two thin legs and the white ceramic toilet underneath him, and directly knocked the apple in his hand into the big Zhiwei's mouth turned to his front teeth, "The fruits after dinner in the cafeteria today are crispy and sweet. It's really a big advantage for you."

In order not to be exposed, Zhiwei couldn't put down the newspaper in his hand and go pick apples.But in order to speak, he could only bite the apple and said, "Um, click."

"What?" Minato kept smiling, "You are hesitant to talk, are you constipated? Constipated, you should eat more fruits."

Aburame Zhiwei finally bit the apple in half, most of it fell to the ground, and the smaller half was crushed in her mouth, "Bah, bah, bah, aren't you disgusted by Namikaze Minato?"

"Ah, ah, we have done it together in the wilderness on missions before. How embarrassed are you?"

"I'm sick."

"Obviously it's me who should be disgusted." Minato sided away from Zhiwei's apple pulp mixed with saliva, laughed and went out.

Zhiwei's heart trembled even more when he heard this.The Yondaime Hokage's smile can express happiness, anger, depression, etc. depending on the situation. There is always a saying.But every time he laughs, who knows where his brain is going wrong?

"Zhiwei, hurry up, I have something to tell you."

Zhiwei remained silent.

"I'm going to work soon, and I'm going to have a meeting as soon as I go to work. I have something to discuss with you before the meeting."

Zhiwei remained silent.

Minato stopped urging, and instead put the toilet paper roll in his hand on his fingertips and turned it flexibly.

Then there was a sound of toilet flushing, and Aburame Shimi's voice suddenly became clear, "Minato, give me back the toilet paper."

"Ken spoke up." Our Hokage threw the toilet paper up and down with a bang.

Zhiwei said "Hmm" and asked flatteringly, "What's the matter?"

"Listen to me and tell you slowly from the beginning." Minato sighed, "Fugaku is dead. Itachi doesn't want to follow the old path arranged by his father. It just so happens that I don't want to let the Uchiha family control the Konoha defense system anymore. So. The only candidates for the Security Minister who are not Uchiha, have some seniority, can take office immediately, and are trusted by me, are you and Choza. Choza has more prestige among the younger generation than you, and you have not been able to take on the role alone in these years. You are no longer the foodie who drooled over barbecue in everyone's impression. And I absolutely believe that you are more suitable for that position than him, but you also know that you have been running around mysteriously in the past few years, and your reputation is indeed not obvious. "

"Well, I know. Didn't you hint at me when you asked me to come back and ask me to find out who was hiding in the ANBU? The first is to really find out, and the second is to reveal my face among the new generation of Konoha."

"But you didn't listen to me and build up your reputation."

"You didn't give me an order. Usually at this time, you don't mean that the choice is mine."

"That's true." Minato sighed again, "Because although the intelligence outside line you are responsible for is a hidden line, it is also very important. If you come back, I can only read the intelligence from the Intelligence Department and Jiraiya-sensei, not from each other. Corroborated information is not a good thing. But you are also 40 years old, and your son is even 15. If you don’t stay with him well, your child may get married in a few years and you haven’t even seen the bride. So do I. Give you a chance to stop working so hard."

"I don't need such an opportunity."

"Yes, yes, Aburame Shiwei's son is very easy to worry about. He doesn't have as many things as Akimichi's family." Minato sighed, "But that doesn't hinder the family relationship between father and son. Look at me. I am also 40 years old. I have to talk about myself. You’d be deceiving yourself if you’re still full of energy, especially this year, but I took a few days off after fighting off the cold virus, and I didn’t dare to stay up too late, otherwise I’d be really uncomfortable the next day. So.”

"Okay, don't make yourself look so pitiful. You just changed your mind again. I'm used to you changing your mind a few times before you announce something important." Zhiwei also sighed, "Just say it. Let me do what you want. You've got the toilet paper in your hand, can I still run away?

"You stay as the head of security." Minato continued to spin the toilet paper.

"That Choji."

"He's the ANBU."

"" Zhi Wei felt that if he hadn't been unable to move, he would have sprayed Shui Men in his face.

"I just thought of it. You see, these days when Kakashi is not doing anything, Lord Itachi is very efficient in assassinations. Lord Shisui and Itachi cooperate tacitly and arrange all kinds of things in an orderly manner. I don't want to My successors will be worried about the ANBU being controlled by Uchiha in the future, so having Ding Zao support them is also to protect them.

"" Zhiwei was silent for a long time, "Why did Kakashi provoke you today?"

"No, you need someone you can trust in the vacant position over there. He's free now."

"He can go to the Security Department and I can continue to do my outside intelligence work."

"You forgot how Fugaku died but Uchiha Mikoto is still alive. No Konoha kunoichi can look down upon."

"But Kakashi does intelligence work, he is too conspicuous."

"Jiraiya-sensei also stands out."

"Jiraiya-sama has been famous for a long time and is extremely powerful. No one wants to take the risk of causing trouble for him." Zhiwei frowned, "Kakashi, even though his head is always a little unclear, and his strength has improved by leaps and bounds, he can just be released like this. It’s a bright target, be careful to turn around and come back with a coarse-pored sponge.”

Minato snorted coldly and held the scroll in his hand tightly, "That kid just needs training right now, and I don't have the energy to care about him now. He's not a rookie with no hair on his head, so I'll let him teach me a lesson." Him."

Education is meant to be practical, right?
