Hokage: The little fox picked up by the Hatake family

At this moment, Saoki turned sideways and avoided the hands behind him.

Then he picked up a handful of Ruowu from nowhere and put it against the visitor's neck. Zaoji stared at the owner of his hands indifferently.

Kisaragi Zeichi no longer looked like he was complaining just now, floating to the side and punching the air.

"Damn snake! A sneak attack on my little Zaoji? I'll beat you to death! I know you have no good intentions!"

Zaoji noticed Kisaragi Zeichi's movements, tried hard to suppress the desire to twitch at the corner of his mouth, looked away at the person in front of him, and put down Ruowu who was pressing on the person's neck.

"Little girl, you almost killed your partner." Orochimaru showed no fear at all when Ruo Wu held his neck and almost decapitated him. Instead, he said with a smile.

Zaoji rolled his eyes rudely: "You have a shadow clone, what are you pretending to be?"

"Hey, I've been seen through." Orochimaru continued to speak with a smile.

"Why is this snake so weird today?" Ruyue Zeyi complained at the side.

Zaoji complained in his heart, it wasn't that he was weird today, it was this guy who was full of bad taste towards him.

After complaining in his heart, Saaki continued: "Leave quickly, if you don't leave, frontline support will arrive. Do you want to meet your good friend? Then explain why you are guarding the border between the Land of Thunder and the Land of Fire. Here?"

"Of course I don't want to." Orochimaru picked up Saaki, glanced at the two teams still fighting around him, and then quietly took Saaki away.

But after a while, frontline support arrived.

The few remaining Iwa ninjas saw this and quickly ran away.

Seeing this, the few remaining members of the Anbu were unable to retain anyone, so they had no choice but to wait for support to arrive before they dared to leave.

But when support and several remaining ANBU searched for Saki, they were never found.

Several ANBU only felt that their vision went dark and they were finished.

……

At this time, Orochimaru's underground base

"Konoha will most likely launch an attack on Iwagakure Village in the future, and then both sides will think that I am on the opposite side." Saki, who had changed into a kimono, sat on his chair and swayed his feet.

"Why don't you fake your death to escape?" Orochimaru asked without looking back, staring at the test tube in his hand.

"I'm not going to remain anonymous." Saaki turned his head and looked at Orochimaru: "I still have my own things to do."

"In this case, if there is still cooperation in the future, just come to me." Orochimaru put down the test tube in his hand and looked at Saki.

"It depends on the situation." Zaoji twirled his hair with his fingers: "I'm tired of cooperating with you."

"How could it be? Didn't you achieve your goal? Moreover, you have completed a lot of things using my laboratory, but I didn't take away any chips." Orochimaru said with a smile.

"Tsk, stingy snake."

"Not as good as you, little fox."

……

Konoha

Sarutobi Hiruzen slapped his hand on the desk angrily.

"How did the news about the Kisaragi clan in Konoha get revealed!"

The ANBU was half-kneeling on the ground with his head lowered: "...I don't know, this subordinate."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the ANBU half-kneeling on the ground, his brows furrowed, and he was silent for a long time.

"Forget it, you go down first, remember, thoroughly investigate the person who knows Kisaragi Saaki's identity."

"Yes, yes!" Anbu quickly retreated.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood by the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the three Hokage statues in the distance, and remained silent for a long time.

……

front

"Saaki is missing!?" Kakashi stared at Namikaze Minato in panic: "Isn't there a team of ANBU protecting Saaki! Why?"

Namikaze Minato looked at Kakashi who was in such a panic and was silent for a few seconds: "Kakashi, calm down first. This time the incident happened because Saki's identity was suddenly leaked, and the people sent by Iwagakure Village were better than the escorts. More than twice as much.”

"But how did so many Iwa ninjas pass through the border and enter the front line to intercept them!?" Kakashi asked.

Namikaze Minato was silent. He could not explain this problem. Even the Hokage was currently investigating the matter.

The last orphan of the Kisaragi clan disappeared, and how a large number of Iwa ninjas crossed the border and attacked from behind. These two things were enough for the Hokage to strictly investigate the entire Konoha.

Moreover, it was during the war at this time, and there was not much energy to search for traces of Zaoji. Moreover, because Zaoji was from the Kisaragi clan, it meant that he could not search for it in a big way, and judging from the previous events, there was a high probability that Zaoji was... Captured by the Iwa Ninja.

But in the final analysis, the reason for starting the war will not be this. The Kisaragi clan is precious, and the shadows of Konoha and Iwagakure should choose to hide it tacitly.

Namikaze Minato figured out the follow-up development in just a moment, but he was a little helpless to the panicked Kakashi in front of him. He didn't know how to explain it.

Kakashi looked at Namikaze Minato's silence, and the expression on his face gradually calmed down, and finally he put on the indifferent mask he wore when they first met.

"Sorry to bother you, Minato-sensei."

"Ka..." Before Minato Namikaze could say anything, Kakashi had already left. Looking at Kakashi's leaving figure, Minato Namikaze could only sigh deeply.

A few days later

Kakashi was directly promoted to Jonin due to his outstanding performance on the battlefield, while Obito and Lin were not as good as each other and were still in Chunin status.

The 12-year-old Jonin made Kakashi's reputation as a genius once again loud and clear.

At the same time, it was Kakashi and others' turn to take a break, and everyone returned to Konoha.

Compared to his previous mood when he returned to Konoha, Kakashi's face looked distant and indifferent.

After reporting the situation on the front line with everyone, he left without looking back, and gave up the idea of ​​quarreling with Obito.

Lin looked at Kakashi's retreating back with some worry: "Kakashi... was hit hard this time..."

Obito was not the same as before, he was also a little silent. After all, after getting along with her for these years, Zaoji also occupied a place in his heart and regarded her as a well-behaved and lovely sister.

Now the disappearance of his sister and the changes in Kakashi also made him feel a little unhappy.

"Obito." Lin suddenly shouted.

"What's wrong?" Obito looked sideways at Lin.

"Why don't we celebrate Kakashi's promotion to Jonin and call him his comrades at the same time? Zaoki will definitely get him back. We can't let Kakashi stay depressed like this. We must give Zaoki a complete and healthy life. Good health Kakashi."

Lin looked at Obito and said seriously.

Obito looked at Lin's face that was very close and turned his head with a blush: "Yes, it's okay."

"Okay, that's it!" Lin said with a smile.

Obito looked at the girl's smile again, and occasionally reached out to rub his hot cheeks.
