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

In the morning, when Itachi Uchiha set off from home with his younger brother Sasuke, Sakura Haruno had been waiting at the meeting place for more than 20 minutes.At this time, Kakashi had not gotten up yet, even though yesterday he vowed to give the order to the three new subordinates to gather in front of the Hokage Tower at 3:7.

And Naruto

Konoha, the Country of Fire, Namikaze House

8:05 am

"He's just a nuisance anyway." Uzumaki Naruto murmured about Kakashi Gossip's black condition while eating the slices of bread his father had just baked for him.

Minato laughed and wiped the crumbs from his son's mouth, "But he is your boss now, Naruto."

Naruto pouted, "Is there a boss like him?"

Minato tilted his head, "You must look a little bit like a boss."

"It's a pity." Naruto raised his hand in front of Minato and pinched his thumb and index finger to form a thin line, "It's really not at all."

"Is it really not at all?" Minato squinted his eyes and moved Naruto's two fingers that were almost stuck together a little apart.

"No means no, no means no." Naruto bit the bread hard, retracted his hand and said angrily, "Why not Kai-senpai. I always thought that Kai-senpai would be the one to take me when I graduate. But it turns out Yesterday, when the classroom door opened, ah, the one who got chalk dust on his face was actually Kakashi, Sasuke was so frightened that his eyes almost turned in circles."

"But you already knew that Metkai Jounin had been assigned to genin classes last year." Minato took a deep breath, ignored the three big words "chalk foam", and tried his best to explain to his son.

"Okay, okay, yes, yes, I know, Rock Lee, Ningji brother and Tenten from the Hyuga family, they are really suitable to form a team, but Kakashi shouldn't be the one to take care of Sasuke and I, he is not the father. Your captain of the guard?"

"He's going to be his ex's soon. Kakashi can't always stay with his father, right? He's already grown up." Minato's father paused, "Most of the people around my father are men."

"So" Naruto cooperated.

"So he must have the opportunity to get in touch with more girls, otherwise I'm worried that the Hatake family will be extinct."

"But Dad." Naruto always felt that there must be something wrong with what his father said, but he still couldn't figure out what was wrong. Forget it, "But Dad, Kakashi is your disciple."

"So isn't it just right to teach you?" Minato smiled slightly.

"But if I call him Kakashi-sensei, and Kakashi calls him Dad-sensei, then I am not the disciple of Dad's disciple." Naruto squinted, "I don't want to call Dad grandpa."

"Well, we ninjas don't talk like that." Minato really didn't know how to explain such a complicated and complex issue to his serious-looking son this time, "Hey, Kakashi taught you everything. Order something, Naruto."

"Following orders is the virtue of a ninja."

"Okay, Virtue." Minato's father looked at his watch. Another five minutes had passed. He looked at Naruto who was still thinking about it in front of him, and suddenly realized that he should give him a little reminder. He seemed not to realize that there was a mission at all. The son who collects such things.But in an instant, the Hokage, who was in the good father mode, stuffed his son with a piece of toast filled with fried eggs and bacon, "You must have a full breakfast, Naruto, would you like some more juice?"

"Yes." Naruto replied loudly, "But Dad, don't you want to eat some more?"

"Civilian ninjas on vacation don't need to eat so much."

"real"

"Truer than gold. Would you like some more fruit? Today's healthy apples are very crisp."

"want."

So the time passed by 9 o'clock in the morning without realizing it.

Uzumaki Naruto finally arrived in front of the Hokage Tower.

"Hey, didn't your father tell you? Kakashi, he was never on time unless he was outside the village, meeting in the village for meals, bathing, tasks, etc. Don't talk about it yesterday, as if we didn't do it yesterday It's like waiting for him." In short, this is how the pre-genin Naruto explained to his teammates why he was late, while chewing the after-dinner gum that his father stuffed into his mouth.

Of course, he could also tell that there was something wrong with Sasuke's eyes.Naruto admitted that he didn't like that feeling very much, so he subconsciously put his hand in front of Fa Xiao's eyes and said, "Sasuke, wake up. Even if you are in a daze, don't stand at the door of the Hokage Tower. Although the door is quite wide, it seems a bit obvious." We are rude."

"Isn't it rude?" Sasuke's eyes twitched and he pulled Naruto out who was leaning on the door frame. "If you didn't lean on the door frame, how could I be so rude and stand at the door talking to you."

"But if you hadn't stopped me and wouldn't let me in, why would I have leaned against the door frame and talked to you." Naruto scratched his head, "I've already told Kakashi, and besides, you can still count on him when he comes. He helps us with our work.”

"Naruto Uzumaki," Sasuke growled, pulling Naruto away from the entrance to the Hokage Tower, "Can you be more careful?"

"What's wrong with me?" Naruto looked at Sasuke, who was blushing and heartbeating, confused.

"The title page of your ninja certificate, the one issued after the graduation ceremony. When you were in school, everyone passed the test one by one. Did you return it to the teacher so quickly?" Sasuke said angrily.

"What?" Naruto tilted his head.

"Secrecy Order." Sasuke looked at the confused Naruto and sighed, "First tell me that you remember such things as the Confidentiality Order."

"How could you not remember? You also said you carried it from childhood to adulthood." Naruto continued to tilt his head.

"That, then." Sasuke pointed at Naruto and was speechless, "Haruno Sakura, come here."

Sakura on the side finally interjected. She opened the genin entry manual, found the mission code, and spread it out in front of Naruto, "To make a long story short, the place we want to clean is the office area of ​​the Hokage Building, not the mission hall or outdoors. . And we are genin, genin in the internship period. The genin and jounin instructors in the internship period are not allowed to enter the office area of ​​​​the Hokage Building, and the confidentiality level is completely insufficient."

"It means we can't get in." Naruto frowned. He turned to look at Sasuke, "But the problem is that no one has ever stopped us."

That's because the young master of the Hokage family was accompanied by the Hokage's secret guard. Sasuke silently suppressed his desire to roar towards Naruto, "Well, I've never been stopped when I followed you."

"Then why are you hesitating? Let's go to work." It's a pity that Naruto didn't understand the meaning of "follow" and "harmony", "finish your work early and go home early."

"But we are genin, genin, new genin. We are no longer the family members of the adults. You can understand what I mean.

"?"

"I understand, but what does this have to do with work?"

Sasuke felt himself weakening. He took a breath and suggested, "Naruto, first of all, the focus is to find Kakashi."

"I told you earlier." Naruto understood. "Let me think about it. I didn't see him when I came out, so I really don't know where he disappeared."

"Aren't you surrounded by secret guards?" Sasuke raised his eyes, "Call out and ask."

"You should scream to see if they can come out. There must be someone on duty at my house, but outside." Naruto couldn't stand Sasuke's strange look, "I specifically asked my dad, and my dad said he wouldn't look for it." People are following me."

Only ghosts believe it.Sasuke was speechless, "Then what do you think the mission is only for one day? How about you go home and ask your father directly?"

"Yeah." Naruto's eyes lit up, "Good idea."

"Okay." Sasuke still couldn't curse. He silently pulled Naruto who turned around and ran away, feeling that he was getting weaker. "Naruto, you are a ninja, Ninja Sakura, a normal genin encounters this What would you do if something bad happens to you?”

"Since you have received the order, then obey the order." Sakura hesitated, "Didn't Kakashi specifically say yesterday that obeying orders is the virtue of a ninja?"

"you sure"

"I'm sure."

"Then wait." Sasuke said firmly.

"But." Naruto faltered, regretting that Sasuke had held him back so easily just now.He was not very happy. His father was on vacation today. According to the plan, he should finish the task as quickly as possible and go home to accompany his father.But when he looked at his two teammates who were inexplicably serious, it seemed that he couldn't refuse to be with them. Kakashi was indeed a nuisance.

So another hour later

Namikaze House, Minato's room

"Hey."

The Fourth Hokage sighed and simply covered his head with the quilt.

"Teacher, it's no use covering your head." The missing person Kakashi also sighed and leaned over to collect the reports scattered on the bed.

"There are nine people in a team of two, three and three who are completely at a loss. The other children are just that, but none of the nine can really solve the problem independently. Shikamaru is the only one who thought about what everyone encountered today. The various problems that went wrong were probably due to the assessment. In the end, it was because it was too troublesome and no other team took action, so we just did it like this."

"It's useless." Kakashi put the scattered reports back into the folder, pulled the quilt, and freed his teacher, "Here, give me the thermometer."

"You don't have the right to say that someone else was hit by a brush." ​​Namikaze Minato took out the thermometer from his clothes, looked at the light, and handed it to Kakashi, "37 degrees 2, it seems to be fine."

"You don't have the right to say that others will get sick when they are on vacation." Kakashi confirmed the number again, then took the medicine box from the secret guard beside him, and counted the numbers in twos and threes, "Get up, the water is not hot anymore. Alright, take the medicine and sleep for a while."

"Hmm." Minato swallowed it in one gulp, "It tastes very strange."

"Vitamins and antibiotics, um, various fruit flavors. The hospital said you were a little malnourished." Kakashi was speechless, "So we collectively decided to follow the advice of the medical ninjas. We will never ask you what you want to eat again. No, there are only special nutritious meals in the cafeteria.”

"Okay." Looking at the secret guards all around who were nodding secretly, Minato could only straighten his pillow, lie down honestly, close his eyes, and wave his hands to express that he was not stressed about it.

Five minutes later, Kakashi took one last look at Hokage, who almost closed his eyes and fell asleep, and finally picked up the new genin internship appraisal report and prepared to go out.He needed to identify the three poor genin who were still waiting at the door of the Hokage Tower, and by the way, he would submit this fresh report to the gentlemen of the Intelligence Department, hoping it would be useful to them.

Of course, this was not an urgent document, so he gnawed on the leftover bread in the teacher's refrigerator and walked slowly towards the Hokage Tower.But as I walked, I unconsciously turned in another direction, leading to Konoha's 5A level tourist attraction, the Memorial Monument.Kakashi likes the sight of the commemorative memorial monument, especially in this season where one team after another is assigned to graduates.Well, this always makes him instantly decide to stop by for some incense. Those brats have been waiting for so long anyway, so waiting a little longer probably doesn't matter.

Then, lunch time

Hokage Building Senior Officer Restaurant

Intelligence Minister Nara Shikaku held the report in one hand and poked a plate of golden fried noodles with a fork in the other.The fried noodles have meat, vegetables, and flavor, but unfortunately, people have no appetite at all.

Sitting opposite him was Yamanaka Haiichi, the chief of staff.Haiyi had already finished the fried noodles in front of him, took out a white handkerchief from his secret pocket, wiped his mouth, and raised his head, "Shikaku, why are you coming to the cafeteria if you don't want to eat?"

Shikaku finally put down the report.He rolled the noodles with his fork, stuffed them into his mouth, and answered vaguely while chewing, "You just read the report that Minato asked Kakashi to send, right? After seeing this kind of report, you don't think so." Your daughter’s future is worried about how you can put food on the table.”

"What am I worried about?" Yamanaka Haiichi took out a toothpick from the toothpick box and bit it carefully. "Normally, 12-year-old children should be unable to do anything without adults."

"But they are not ordinary children, they are ninjas. Ninja, you know what a ninja is, right?"

"So since we have the conditions now, why not give them a healthier childhood." Yamanaka Haiichi comforted Shikaku.He knew that his friend actually knew better than anyone else, but he was a little nervous recently. In short, "Shikaku, even if you don't have confidence in yourself, you still have some confidence in Minato. Just leave everything to Minato. Let's talk about it from our Hokage. The days of drawing swords and killing people for half a sesame seed cake are gone forever. That is gone forever. Once people live in stability and prosperity, they will never be willing to do it for those inexplicable reasons. If you die easily, that's what it is, right? Children now have the right to be picky about food. Yes, look at you, you're not the same as you, you have such luxury to eat leftovers whenever you want."

And upon hearing this, the Konoha Intelligence Minister, who was indeed preparing to sneak the leftovers, suddenly froze.He remained silent, just looking up at his friend opposite.He found that Haiyi's eyes were a little red, and he was not sure whether he was the same.

"It's a shameful waste." Nara Shikaku ate the fried noodles that had become a little hard due to the loss of temperature until there was nothing on the plate.

What is fate, what is luck?

Does fate control luck, or does luck control destiny?
