Naruto: Hayate Blade

This setback almost defeated Kakashi, and rumors spread in the village that "Kakashi even killed his companions for the mission." After the war, Kakashi's whole person exuded a cold aura, and he refused to let others stay thousands of miles away. He was even more ruthless towards the enemy and never left anyone alive. Maybe he didn't want his companions to die because he didn't finish the damage in time. He often has nightmares about the scene of Lin's death. He wants to wash off the non-existent blood on his hands, but can't. He starts reading a book titled How to Die. Although he is alive, his heart seems to have followed him. Obito and Rin died together.

At this time, Minato took over as the Fourth Hokage. He transferred the hopeless Kakashi into his direct ANBU, hoping that he could forget the pain in his heart. Unfortunately, not long after, Minato also died in the Nine-Tails Rebellion. , and Kakashi’s fourth transformation was his experience in Anbu, where he met two people who had a greater impact on him, namely Tenzo and Uchiha Itachi.

Zang was Yamato, the Wooden ninja who later served as the acting squad leader of Team 7. When Kakashi first met him, he was still affiliated with Danzo's Gen, codenamed "A". Due to the root organization's concept of obeying orders, A at this time is very similar to Kakashi back then. He pursues the principle of mission first. Kakashi changed him and himself. I originally planned to be a ninja casually, earn some money casually, find an ordinary woman who is neither beautiful nor ugly to marry, and have two children casually, the first one is a girl, the second one is a boy, and wait for the eldest daughter to get married. , when his son was able to stand alone, he stopped being a ninja. After that, he played shogi or Go all day long, lived a leisurely and contented life in seclusion, and then died of old age before his wife. This is the life I want

This passage is a simple summary of his vision of life on his deathbed by a 12-year-old Genin Nara Shikamaru from Konoha Hidden Village in the Land of Fire, more than ten or twenty years ago. However, the four words "casual" are used in just a few lines, which shows that this young man has an attitude towards life that is independent of the world, easy-going, and longs for a peaceful life.

Nara Shikamaru, together with Naruto, Sasuke and other eleven people, are collectively known as the "Konoha Twelve" by Naruto fans. After surviving 720 episodes of the first Naruto animation, they are also in the sequel Naruto: The Next Generation. He continued to become the seventh-generation Hokage's right-hand man and advised Konoha Village, but this was nearly twenty years later. However, has the life that the young boy longed for come true after so many years?

As we all know, when Nara Shikamaru was young, he completely inherited his father Nara Shikaku's lazy, trouble-free, and giving-up character. He basically slept during class and was too lazy to write during exams. He even chose to give up on the Chunin exam because of the trouble. In the "Operation Collapse of Konoha" planned by Orochimaru, when he was one against the nine Sound Ninjas and had no way out, he was able to express the sigh of longing for life at the beginning of the article at the last moment of his life.

Once upon a time, wasn't the life Shikamaru longed for the ideal and ordinary life we ​​pursue? As the years go by, how many people live the life they want, even Shikamaru himself has not "realized" it.

"Just be a ninja", but Shikamaru with iq200 has a thorough understanding of people and things, coexistence of sensibility and rationality, and a genius strategic mind, which made him become a jounin earlier than anyone else and become the next to Hokage. Big celebrity, the ninja profession is no longer as simple as casually for him.

"Earn some money casually." Today, twenty years later, Shikamaru has almost become the second-in-command in the management of Konoha Village. The salary is not casual. It is estimated that marrying Bai Fumi and reaching the peak of life is no longer a problem.

"Just find an ordinary woman who is neither beautiful nor ugly to get married." This Temari: Shikamaru, I allow you to say it again.

"Just give birth to two children, the first is a girl and the second is a boy." Unfortunately, in the sequel to Naruto Next Generations, the author Masashi Kishimoto only set up that the love child between Shikamaru and Temari is only one boy, Nara Shikadai. If Shikamaru's childhood dream is to be realized, it is estimated that he is currently in love with Temari. In spare tire.

In fact, life is full of chance and randomness all the time, and it is impossible to develop according to the script of the movie. We can never know which will come first, death or tomorrow, so we can only live well in the present and cherish the people and things in front of us, which is how we treat our future. The highest respect for life.

At that time, A was ordered by Danzo to assassinate the Third Hokage. Kakashi was aware of this assassination because he was the one who leaked the Third Hokage's itinerary to Danzo and then told the Third Hokage about Danzo's plan to assassinate him. After catching A, Kakashi let him go directly, because the other person was also a ninja of Konoha and was just performing the mission of the Root Organization. He did not want to kill his companions in the same village because of the mission. A was also punished for what Kakashi did. Got some touches. Later, Orochimaru defected to Konoha, and Kakashi went to pursue him. On the way, he met A again. This time they no longer fought against each other, but each shouldered the mission of Anbu and Gen. So they cooperated and formed a friendship. He also got his own name "Tenzo".

Later, Danzo wanted to seize Kakashi's Sharingan, so he ordered Tenzo to assassinate Kakashi during the mission. When Kakashi and Tenzo were investigating a secret laboratory of Orochimaru, Tenzo suddenly slashed Kakashi with a knife. Kakashi asked him in shock: "Why do you want to kill me? Aren't we companions?" Tenzo Answer: "This is a mission. For ninjas, missions are absolute. Why did you kill Lin back then? Wasn't it also for the mission?" Tenzo's question hit Kakashi's pain point directly, so Kakashi faced the other person and what he had done. Answered: "It is true that I have dealt with many Konoha rebels for the mission, but I have never hurt my companions, and I have never thought about killing Lin. I just don't have the ability to protect her. If the mission requires killing my companions, then The mission is wrong, give up on this mission."

Tenzo was influenced by Kakashi and really gave up the assassination. Because of this, he will face Danzo's severe punishment. Kakashi immediately found the Third Hokage and asked him to come forward to rescue Tenzo. So the Third Generation led the ANBU to surround the root organization, forcing Danzo to release his people, and transferred him to ANBU Kakashi's team. This time, Kakashi finally After saving his companions and adding a little follower who could use wood escape, he finally regained some vitality in his heart.

When Itachi Uchiha joined ANBU, Kakashi was no longer so cold. He took great care of Itachi and influenced his thinking to a certain extent. Kakashi and Itachi soon received a mission, which was to secretly monitor a diplomatic event between Konoha and neighboring countries. If the neighboring countries had evil intentions, they would all be annihilated. During the mission, ninjas from neighboring countries suddenly betrayed and attacked the Konoha mission. Kakashi saved them with a move of the earth flow wall. Itachi asked him: "I heard that you even killed your companions in order to complete the mission." The subtext is Saving these people is not the mission goal. Why should we save them? Kakashi replied: "I will never let my companions be killed. Someone entrusted me with this belief and this Sharingan."

At this time, Itachi was caught in a dilemma between the village and his family. Seeing that Kakashi seemed to be an expert, Itachi asked him from the side: "You are not an Uchiha clansman, but you have Uchiha's Sharingan." , which side of the ninja do you think you are?" Kakashi replied: "I have never thought about this problem. This eye was entrusted to me by a friend, and it has been reminding me not to let my companions be killed." Itachi said again Asked: "Do you have to respond to your friend's wishes?" Kakashi replied: "I personally think so." Itachi thought of Shisui who also entrusted his Sharingan to him. Shisui once asked him: "Protect the village well." , and the name of Uchiha." So Itachi responded to Shisui's entrustment, protected the village, and did not let Uchiha's name be damaged. From this point of view, Kakashi's words can be said to have contributed to Itachi's choice, but the choice Itachi faced was far from as simple as mission and companions. At this time, Kakashi was closer to his current personality, and he just had to completely come out of the shadow of losing Obito and Lin. Kakashi's last transformation was when he met his students. Many years later, Kakashi finally left ANBU, but he was still like an iceberg, inhumane, because he had not yet come out of the shadows and did not dare to have new companions. Loneliness became his protective umbrella from pain, and it also became a barrier between him and others. wall between. So the Third Hokage appointed him as a Jonin, responsible for training students, which is what his teacher Minato Namikaze did back then.

When Kakashi participated in the selection of Minato's class, he was a person who only focused on the mission and did not care about the team. Although he cooperated with Obito and Linda Cheng to grab the bell, he knew that he was actually just using it to complete the mission. He killed them, but Minato-sensei didn't notice this. If Minato-sensei had seen that he lacked teamwork and didn't let him become a ninja, so many unfortunate things might not have happened in the future. So this time, Kakashi selected his students very carefully. Once he found that they lacked the spirit of thinking about their companions, he would directly eliminate them. Although the ninja education at that time was a little gentler than during the war, overall it was still mission-oriented. Therefore, for several years, no one in Kakashi's class passed until he waited for the protagonists.

Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, and Haruno Sakura, it can be said that the first two have a deep connection with Kakashi. Naruto is his teacher, the orphan of Minato Namikaze, and like Obito has the dream of becoming Hokage. Sasuke is the only survivor of the Uchiha family, Itachi's younger brother, and has the same eyes as Obito, and they are the same as when he was a child. , all orphans. I'm afraid Kakashi will know when he sees this list, fate is wonderful.

It happened that the Third Hokage told him: "In fact, when Minato was selecting you, he had already noticed that you were an arbitrary person, but he believed in you and would soon understand the importance of companions." Only then did Kakashi know that Minato The teacher has long been aware of his superficial tactics, but even so, he still believes that I will wake up. This may be the reason for Minato's gentleness, and it is also what Kakashi lacks, the power of believing in others.

Although Kakashi is no longer someone who values ​​rules above all else, he has been living in the shadow of losing Obito and Lin. He dare not trust others, nor can he believe that he can protect his companions again and strictly follow the rules he has set. , dare not break. So when Sasuke and Sakura broke the rules and fed Naruto a box lunch during the exercise, Kakashi was finally cured. "Obito, have you seen it? I will never forget you and Lin in my life, but even so, I still want to move forward with my new companions. Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, I believe in you, and Obito , Lin, I swear to you that I will never let the companions I trust die." So Kakashi, like his teacher Minato, appeared with a heart-warming image.

Seeing that the food at Naruto's house was expired, he would specially send fresh vegetables. Knowing that Sakura might force herself to take the chunin exam for the sake of her companions, he thoughtfully told them to sign up voluntarily. When Zabuza was trapped in the water prison, his first words were "You guys run away." Not to mention Sasuke, first he worked hard because of Orochimaru's curse seal, and then taught him the trick Chidori. When Sasuke and Itachi met again and were swallowed by the vengeful Yuang, Kakashi became a life mentor again. Enlighten him, Sasuke yelled at him rebelliously: "Shut up, don't act like you know everything, what will happen if you kill the person you cherish most right now?" Kakashi said with a smile: "It's unfortunate. , all the people I cherished most were killed." The self-mockery revealed the loneliness hidden deep in his heart. At this time, Konoha is at its most dangerous moment. In the Chunin Examination, the Third Hokage died in battle. The people in the village are unstable. Outside the village, there are threats from Orochimaru and the Akatsuki organization. As a princess of the Senju Clan, a disciple of the Third Hokage, and one of the "Sannin of Konoha" with both fame and strength, Tsunade can win the hearts of the people simply by ascending to the top. Coupled with Jiraiya who was escorting them, the two Sannin returned to Konoha, and Danzo's forces that were just about to raise their head shrank back in an instant.

After solving the internal problems, there are still external ones, namely Orochimaru who is eyeing Sasuke and Akatsuki who is eyeing Naruto. Neither Tsunade nor Jiraiya are conservative people. As the Hokage, Tsunade has to sit in the village, so Jiraiya takes the initiative and leaves the village to investigate the enemy's intelligence.

But they didn't expect that Orochimaru, who had just been defeated in front of the two of them, would attack Konoha again, and not through force. He just sent a few subordinates to sneak in and hurt Sasuke a little. Sasuke, who was full of revenge, took the initiative to seek strength. Ran after them.

This incident was indeed a failure for Tsunade after she became Hokage, but her response was actually very good. At that time, Jiraiya left the village, Kakashi, Gai and other Jonin all went out to perform tasks. The news Tsunade received It was just "Sasuke left the village".

But she was keenly aware that this was Orochimaru's action, and assigned the calm and resourceful Shikamaru to assemble the best genin to pursue. At the same time, she sent a request for help to the neighboring Sunagakure Village. When Kakashi returned to the village, he immediately organized Medical class support. Tsunade's arrangements should have been enough to deal with this crisis. The five invading Sound Ninjas were all wiped out. However, he did not expect that Sasuke had obtained the power of the Three Magatama Sharingan and the Curse Seal of Heaven. Naruto tried his best to fail. Couldn't stop him.

Fortunately, Jiraiya brought back information that Orochimaru's reincarnation technique could not be used on Sasuke for at least three years. In order to give Naruto the strength to bring back Sasuke during this period, Jiraiya officially accepted Naruto as his disciple and took him away from the village to start hard training.

At this time, Sakura, another member of Team 7, found Tsunade. Sakura was the last person to see Sasuke as he left the village, but she was powerless to stop him. She could only watch her beloved leave. She was not even strong enough to participate in the pursuit. She could only cry and beg Naruto to bring Sasuke back, but everyone, including Naruto, was seriously injured.

She was unwilling to do anything while everyone was working hard, but she couldn't do anything. Sakura: "I'm sorry Naruto, I still need some time, but please bring me with you next time." Tsunade saw all this, so when Sakura found her and hoped to become her teacher, Tsunade Hand readily agreed.

Looking at the portraits of the previous Hokages, Tsunade said in her heart: Since I took over Konoha from you, it is my mission to cultivate the young ninjas of Konoha. Looking at the portraits of the previous Hokage, Tsunade I said in my heart: Since I took over Konoha from you, it is my mission to cultivate the little ninjas of Konoha.

In this way, the former Konoha Sannin accepted apprentices at the same time, Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura, and achieved transformation in three years. Sakura has made particularly great progress, even surpassing Shizune, who has followed Tsunade for many years. Not only has she mastered the top medical ninjutsu, but she has also learned the art of Hyakou, and gained strange powers similar to Tsunade. Sakura, who has no innate cheats, The girl, with Tsunade's help and her own efforts, was finally able to fight alongside Naruto.

Three years later, when Jiraiya returned to the village with Naruto, Konoha had regained its strength, and the relationship with Sunagakure Village had reached the point of being inseparable. At this time, Sunagakure Village suddenly called for help, and their Kazekage Gaara was kidnapped from the village by the Akatsuki organization.

After Tsunade received the news, she sent Kakashi Ban to rescue Sunagakure Village. In fact, sending out Naruto was very risky. Jiraiya also reminded her that Naruto was also Akatsuki's target, but for Tsunade, Naruto was the successor. The person who realizes the dreams of Nōju and Dan, and wins the bet with him, should not be a Jinchuuriki weapon confined to Konoha, but a future Hokage who needs to experience and grow. He once said: "I will not die before I become Hokage. Doing what I say is my ninja way." Tsunade placed her bet on Naruto, believing in his power.

And Tsunade was not foolhardy. She also dispatched Kaiban, who had just completed the mission, as reinforcements. The two strongest squads in Konoha were dispatched, which can be said to have done everything possible.

This operation to support Sunagakure was a great success. It not only rescued the Kazekage next door, "suspected to kill" two members of the Akatsuki organization, but also accidentally obtained information about Orochimaru. However, because Kakashi was exhausted and had to go to the hospital again, and the information was only valid for six days, Shizune suggested sending other teams to perform the mission. But Tsunade said that this mission must be done by Team 7: "Both Naruto and Sakura are desperately looking for their former companions. They want to bring back Sasuke more than anyone else. This strong desire will lead to the success of the mission." .”

However, Tsunade's decision was still blocked by two senior executives, Men Yan and Xiao Chun. They asked Tsunade: "Can you guarantee that Naruto will not be daddy by Akatsuki? Can you guarantee that Akatsuki will get the Queen of Nine Tails in Naruto?" Won't it bring disaster to the village?" Tsunade said firmly: "Naruto will not be dada. I believe that if Konoha faces a crisis in the future, I will fight to the death to protect it all as the fifth generation Hokage. "

However, Tsunade's determination seemed to be stubborn in the eyes of the two elders. Perhaps because of the too big differences over the jinchuriki issue, they invited Danzo out, and the root that had been suppressed underground for many years by the third generation of Hokage was revived.

Later, Akatsuki invaded the Fire Country again, and the Fire Temple, which had been passed down for thousands of years, was destroyed by Hidan and Kakuzu. Tsunade, who always likes to take the initiative, sent twenty teams and issued the order, "They must not be allowed to escape from the Fire Country. If he cannot be captured alive, he will be killed directly.” But this time Tsunade was indeed too radical. Although the twenty teams were large in scale, the large-scale manhunt dispersed their combat power and made it difficult to support each other.
