After that day, Hatake Sakumo did not go out again.
He took a long vacation from the Anbu. Although the undercurrents in the ninja world are surging now, Konoha is fine. Most of the countries are testing the Rain Country.
So, Hatake Sakumo simply handed the matter over to his subordinates and rested at home for a while.
These days, Hatake Sakumo has to do nothing but read books, accompany his wife, and teach Kakashi the Hatake family swordsmanship.
But, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop.
Even if you stay at home, there are still people passing by and inadvertently spread some gossip.
Kakashi wanted to go out and teach those gossipers several times, or at least drive them away.
But Hatake Sakumo stopped him and just warned him that being strong inside is the real strength.
However, Kakashi and his mother Hatake Mina both felt that under Hatake Sakumo's optimistic appearance, his mental state was getting worse and worse.
Not only in daily life, but even when teaching Kakashi the family swordsmanship, Hatake Sakumo often lost his mind.
He was right, a strong heart is the real strength.
But it is obvious that his heart is not that strong.
He can ignore the misunderstanding of ordinary ninjas and the public. What really makes him uncomfortable is the misunderstanding of his colleagues, and what finally caused him a fatal blow was the words of Gekko Scurry.
"I would rather die in the Land of Rain."
These days, Hatake Sakumo has been thinking about whether he could change the current ending if he gave up the lives of these subordinates and continued to sneak into the Land of Rain alone.
But in the end, there is still only one answer, he still can't watch these Konoha Anbu die like this.
So, in this torment, he felt more and more uncomfortable.
"Kakashi, I will comfort your father, you go find someone to help, remember?" Hatake Mina urged.
"I know, mother!" Kakashi nodded vigorously.
Soon, Kakashi said hello to Hatake Sakumo and left home on the pretext of going to play with classmates.
Kakashi's first stop was his father Hatake Sakumo's friend, Inuzuka Maowei, who mastered the method of cultivating ninja dogs.
"Uncle Maowei, are you home?" Kakashi knocked on the door.
"Is it little Kakashi?" A man with a simple appearance and oil paint on his face opened the door and said:
"I can smell Kakashi from a long distance."
"Little Kakashi, do you need uncle's help? If there is anything I can help you with, I will do my best."
"Well, please enlighten my father, uncle." Kakashi pleaded.
Hearing Kakashi's request, Inuzuka Maowei's eyes showed some helplessness.
He and Hatake Sakumo have a very good relationship. They have been on the battlefield together and almost died together on the battlefield.
Inuzuka Maowei wanted to help Hatake Sakumo's current situation, but he was powerless.
Because when the rumor just started, the high-ranking members of the Inuzuka clan warned Inuzuka Maowei not to get involved.
"Sorry, little Kakashi, I can't do anything about Sakumo." Inuzuka Maowei said helplessly.
"Uncle Maowei, do you have any unspeakable secrets?" Kakashi looked into his eyes and asked.
"Alas," Inuzuka Maowei sighed and said:
"Perhaps only Sakumo himself can solve this problem."
Then, Inuzuka Maowei seemed to have thought of something and reminded:
"Little Kakashi, after you go home, you may remind Sakumo to resign from the position of Anbu Minister and have a good rest for a while."
"I know, Uncle Maowei." Kakashi said a little disappointed.
At this time, Kakashi only thought that Inuzuka Maowei really wanted Hatake Sakumo to have a good rest. In fact, he was more inclined to let Hatake Sakumo resign as Anbu Minister.
The rumor about Hatake Sakumo in Konoha could spread to such a wide range, which was definitely inseparable from the high-ranking members of Konoha.
I'm afraid that some of the Konoha high-ranking officials wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to remove Hatake Sakumo from the position of Anbu Minister and to undermine Hatake Sakumo's reputation.
The high-ranking officials of the Inuzuka clan saw this and warned Inuzuka Moe not to intervene.
Compared with the high-ranking officials of Konoha, the power of the Inuzuka clan is still too weak. Once they really confront each other, it is tantamount to hitting a rock with an egg.
Looking at Kakashi leaving, Inuzuka Moe was also a little helpless and hummed in his heart.
"Sakumo, Sakumo, you must not think too much. If you resign as Anbu Minister as soon as possible, the other party should not target you."
"But, is there any intention of the Third Hokage in this?"
Kakashi left Inuzuka Moe's house and then visited several acquaintances and friends of Hatake Sakumo.
Among them are ninjas from the ninja clan and ninjas from civilians.
Many ninjas are still outsideSome of them were at home and happened to meet him.
But without exception, those ninjas of the ninja clan were basically warned by the senior members of their own families, and they were almost the same as Inuzuka Maowei, and they could do nothing to help.
And those civilian ninjas, many of them also saw some signs, and they did not dare to help for their own future.
Even some ninjas heard too many rumors and the rhythm was ingrained in their minds.
When Kakashi asked for help, he actually ignored the friendship in the past and scolded Hatake Sakumo in front of little Kakashi that giving up the mission was an insult to the profession of ninja. Kakashi clenched his hands and his nails were about to dig into the flesh.
From morning to afternoon, Kakashi visited every family, but he couldn't find a ninja who could enlighten Hatake Sakumo.
These ninjas were people who his mother Hatake Mina told him about, and they had a good personal relationship with his father Hatake Sakumo.
Most of them had been on the battlefield or done missions together, and many of them had been saved by Hatake Sakumo.
Kakashi just wanted them to help enlighten his father, and didn't even expect them to stand up for his father or speak up for him, even if no one was willing to do so.
The young Kakashi didn't understand.
But it didn't prevent Kakashi from being a little desperate at this time.
He once believed in the bond between ninjas and dreamed of getting two teammates who could fight side by side and a teacher who could protect them.
But after experiencing today and seeing the cold-bloodedness of these father's former comrades, Kakashi has begun to develop into a ruthless ninja.
"Is this what ninjas call a bond?"
"Bonds are really the most useless thing!"
Kakashi gave up hope and was ready to go home directly, but ran into a passionate boy in a green sportswear running.
"Hey! Kakashi! What are you doing?" Might Guy asked with a smile.
"Nothing." Kakashi said coldly.
"You look like you must be worried about something, right?" Might Guy said passionately:
"Whatever is on your mind, come and compete with me. After the competition, all your worries will be gone!"
"I'm not interested." Kakashi said and left.
"Don't run, Kakashi!" Might Guy chased him again and asked:
"Tell me what's bothering you!"
