Because the painting style of the seventh class of Hokage collapsed

"What game?" Kakashi's eyes were full of vigilance.

"Let's have a heart-sword showdown. If I win, you promise to be my apprentice. But don't worry, I don't ask you to betray Konoha, nor do I ask you to stay by my side. I just want to give my Inherited to you." Genichiro took a slow sip of tea.

"What if I win?" Kakashi raised an eyebrow.

"If you win, I won't pester you anymore, and I'll give you an apology by the way." Genichiro put down the tea cup and spread his hands, "This is a game that you won't lose no matter what. Do not play?"

Kakashi thought for a moment and finally agreed.

As for the so-called Heart Sword, it is actually a kind of spiritual competition similar to the level of illusion. This kind of duel is not about one's own strength, but more about the perception of the sword.

The game started, Kakashi and Genichiro closed their eyes together.

The seemingly peaceful two people actually appeared together on a huge bluestone platform in the world of thoughts in the next second.

Surrounding them was a blue sky and countless white clouds, like a fairyland.

Genichiro took the lead, raised his hand and waved, countless sword lights condensed instantly, and then rained down on Kakashi.

In order to avoid his vest being poked, Kakashi did not use Li Chungang's power. Instead, he combined the true meaning of Guihai Yitou's domineering sword, Dugu Qiufei's kendo perception and red-haired Shanks' domineering swordsmanship into one. The Hatake swordsmanship of the Hatake family has formed a brand new sword spirit.

I have a sword with no bells and whistles or weird moves, but just unyielding dominance!

As a short sword appeared in Kakashi's hand, Kakashi raised his hand and waved, and the crescent-shaped light instantly defeated countless sword lights.

Genichiro attacked several times in succession, but he was never able to hurt Kakashi at all.

He didn't seem surprised by this. Instead, he nodded with satisfaction. Then he rose into the air and used both hands to exert force. He saw that the countless sword lights that had been scattered before regrouped in the air, and then turned into a huge sword. The incomparable sword slashed at Kakashi from top to bottom.

Looking at the sword in the sky that was like the pressure of heaven and earth, the memory of Li Chungang's enlightenment suddenly appeared in Kakashi's heart.

The sky did not give birth to me, Li Chungang, the way of swordsmanship is like the eternal night.

Arrogant, domineering, courage and self-confidence that ignores everything.

It turns out that this is the true meaning of martial arts.

"Open the gate of heaven with one sword!"

At this moment, Kakashi simply put aside the idea of ​​not showing his vest. He raised his hand and waved, and an unparalleled silver-white sword light instantly greeted the giant sword in the sky.

There was no sound, no ripples.

The giant sword was so easily cut into two pieces by the sword light on the spot.

What was even more frightening was that the sword light then hit the white cloud above Genichiro's head with unabated force.

The next second, the white clouds were cut open by the sword like tofu. Behind the white clouds, there was no blue sky, but a bloody light.

puff!

In reality, Genichiro, who was sitting quietly with a smile on his face, suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood.

He opened his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him with shock.

Then, he finally realized something and smiled bitterly.

"Oh it's you……"

On the other side, Kakashi also opened his eyes and smiled.

"I won." Kakashi stood up, "I don't want the gift anymore. You should keep it to give to other people who are destined."

After that, Kakashi left the room.

Genichiro didn't stop him, he just watched Kakashi's leaving back silently for a long time, and then he let out a sigh that sounded both excited and sad.

"Such a genius will surely become a great asset in the future, or will he be a disaster?"

The quarrel between Namikaze Minato and Mifune lasted for nearly half a month before it ended.

Although it was not clear what the outcome of the negotiations was, everyone with eyes in the Iron Country saw the scene where Namikaze Minato and Mifune smiled and shook hands with each other to say goodbye.

On the way back from the Iron Kingdom, Obito couldn't help but curiously asked Minato about the outcome of this negotiation. Minato did not shy away and gave the answer directly.

"Nothing."

The Iron Kingdom remains neutral and does not intend to favor anyone.

"Then the mission failed?" Obito's face fell.

"No, the mission has been completed." Unlike Obito, Kakashi obviously had different ideas.

"Why do you say that?" Obito was startled.

"It doesn't matter what the attitude of the Iron Country is. What's important is that other spies from the Ninja Village see the scene of the Konoha ninjas and the Iron Country generals enjoying themselves."

Kakashi, who had rich historical knowledge in his previous life, was already familiar with this method. The purpose of going to the Iron Kingdom from the beginning was not really to win over allies, but to make other enemies suspicious.

As long as there are people who are worried that the Iron Kingdom will stab them in the back, they will never dare to attack with all their strength. Instead, they will always send people to secretly guard against the Iron Kingdom.

That is to say, strategic containment.

"Kakashi, you are more suitable to be a Hokage than Obito." At this time, Namikaze Minato suddenly smiled.

"Huh? How is it possible? I must be the one who can become Hokage!" Although Obito has learned the way of Gou, he is still essentially a passionate young man, especially becoming Hokage is still his dream.

"Yes, Obito can definitely be Hokage, but Obito, think about it, as Hokage, do you need some help? I think Kakashi is very suitable." Lin gently held Obito's hand. .

"Hmph, then I'll reluctantly let him help me." Obito's face turned red, and then he pouted at Kakashi arrogantly.

Kakashi's eyes twitched and he didn't answer. What he was thinking about was the thankless job of being Hokage, and he didn't want to do it.

Don't you see, the Hokage during the war was always scheming, and the Hokage's documents during the peacetime piled up.

Too tired to live a new life. Kakashi's dream is actually very simple. He just wants to be a jounin, teach students, do tasks, and when he is almost old, find a woman who is not ugly to marry. Live a peaceful life.

If it weren't for the old silver coins of the Otsutsuki clan that have been hiding in the dark, Kakashi would even want to retire now.

Is there any problem in retiring at the age of 11?

But speaking of Jonin, Kakashi suddenly remembered that he seemed to be qualified to participate in the Jonin selection.

Konoha's wartime promotion mechanism is very strange. As long as the number of tasks reaches the standard, you can be promoted to Jonin.

Kakashi has currently performed 1 S-level mission, 9 A-level missions, 81 B-level missions, 103 C-level missions, and 105 D-level missions.

According to the rules, after completing this A-level mission, Kakashi only needs to complete one more S-level mission or 10 A-level missions to be promoted to Jonin.

If he wants stability, he can also choose to perform 100 B-level missions, and he can also be promoted to Jonin.

This is why Kakashi in the original book was able to serve as a Jonin at a young age and complete tasks.

"By the way, take the time to rest when you get back. I always have an ominous feeling." At this time, Minato suddenly set a flag.
