[Naruto] Angelica

Sasuke didn't struggle anymore, and the hostility on his face gradually dissipated, and he lowered his head as if thinking about what Kakashi just said.

Seeing this, Kakashi put away the strings that restrained Sasuke, and decided to let him calm down for a while.He always thought that Sasuke was a smart boy, and it was enough to say something.

However, Kakashi never expected that when he finished his mission and rushed back to Konoha, what he got was the news of Sasuke's defection.

Sasuke, defected.

These two words have been circling in Kakashi's mind, and he was still calm until Tsunade told him that the ones sent to chase after Sasuke were the newly promoted zhongnin Shikamaru and the other ninjas. The nerves of "reasonable" and "calm" were completely broken.

"What?! How can you let those rookies go after Sasuke?"

Subconsciously, he leaned forward and slapped his hands on the table again, and the accumulated documents were instantly scattered.

"What can I do? Konoha's current situation is like this, and there is no extra manpower to use." Tsunade was a little helpless at his anger, and found the S-level task list from the scattered documents with difficulty, "And I Arrangements have been made... Hey, hey!" Seeing that Kakashi turned around and walked out without listening to her at all, Tsunade shook the task list, "Your task has already been decided!"

"I'll be right back when I'm done, don't worry."

Kakashi tore off his equipment strap, opened the door and left without looking back.

"Really..."

Tsunade frowned.

Leaving the office, Kakashi jumped directly from the balcony in the corridor. Before jumping down, he saw a person going up the stairs from the corner of his eye. The green vest was a little dirty. It was probably another person who had just finished the task and returned to Konoha just like him. The one who was caught by Tsunade to catch up with the next task.He was not in the mood to stop now, greeted the other party with a few words of Tsunade's devil platoon, and rushed straight to the Konoha gate, psychic out the eight ninja dogs.

"Find the taste of Sasuke and Naruto."

He ordered in a deep voice, and the ninja dogs immediately dispersed in all directions, and soon the barking of dogs sounded in the forest not far away.

Kakashi walked quickly through the forest, the cascading branches and leaves receding back and leaving afterimages along the way, thunder rumbled, and the torrential rain hit, and the rain fell on the branches and leaves with a rattling sound.

"Has the smell been diluted?" Kakashi asked.

"Fortunately...it should be here soon," Parker said.

However, they were still one step too late. Naruto was the only one lying on the ground in the Valley of the End, with injuries all over his body, and the surrounding terrain was severely damaged. It can be imagined what kind of fierce battle he had experienced.

Parker was worried: "Kakashi..."

Kakashi squatted down with a sigh, took Naruto's arm and carried him on his back.

"You must have worked hard, Naruto."

However, he still chose to go to the darkness alone. It was a road with no end in sight. Perhaps this way, he would never be able to turn back.

The torrential rain in summer came and went quickly. When Kakashi returned to the forest from the canyon with Naruto on his back, the rain had stopped, the sun came out from behind the clouds, the light penetrated through the forest, and the shadows of the trees were mottled.

"Kakashi, it seems that someone is coming." Parker said suddenly, "Two...no, it should be three people. The person in the front has a very weak smell...they stopped."

Kakashi frowned, and walked a further distance with Parker. Parker was saying that the three people were ahead, but Kakashi stopped suddenly, feeling a strange premonition in his heart.

"Parker, do you remember..." The day Akai brought Tsunade to treat him, after he woke up, Akai hurriedly took Tsunade to continue to treat his beloved disciple. Before leaving, Akai suddenly turned his head Say "she's back".

At that time, he had just woke up from a coma, and his mind was still not clear. He wanted to ask who Akai was talking about. Before he asked, a person's name suddenly appeared. , he was right.

Yayoi Hinata is back.

In front of the arbor where Kakashi was standing was a more luxuriant towering giant tree with overlapping branches and shadows, completely blocking the line of sight.He walked a few steps forward, passed through the green screen, and saw two members of the medical class in plain white, and a woman standing in front of them.

The moment he saw her, everything around Kakashi seemed to disappear.Parker's exclamation, the greetings from the medical team, the rustling of leaves, and the singing of birds and beasts.He couldn't hear anything.

Yayoi Hyuga was wearing a Jōnin uniform, and the rain washed away the mud and dust on the green vest, leaving only a few scratches.She was soaked by the torrential rain just now, and she rolled up her long sleeves, revealing two slender forearms.The high black long hair was still dripping water, and the broken hair on the temples was also hanging down, sticking to her cheeks wetly, perhaps because of the rain, her eyes were a little hazy and unable to focus.

She stood across from Kakashi in such a short distance, but it was a full six years away.

"Kakashi Jonin, so you are on the opposite side." A medical ninja jumped onto the branch of Kakashi's station, looked back at the white-eyed woman ten steps away, and introduced to Kakashi, "This It’s Hinata Yayoi Jonin, you may not be familiar with it, Tsunade-sama said that she has been sent abroad for a long time and only recently returned to Konoha. Thanks to her help, the wounded and you were found so quickly.”

"That's it."

Kakashi responded, his voice dry like an unresined string.

Hinata Yayoi pursed her lips, curled up and loosened her fingers hanging by her side, she took a step forward, as if she wanted to say something to him, before Kakashi heard it, Naruto's weak voice came from behind . .

"Kakashi-sensei... Where is Sasuke..."

Kakashi came back to his senses, jumped off the tree trunk, and put him down on a flat place.

The medical team stepped forward immediately and began to check the injuries.

"Fortunately, there's nothing serious, it's just that I'm exhausted..." They quickly judged.

A person raised his head and asked, "Where is Sasuke? Why didn't you see Uchiha Sasuke?"

Naruto's expression dropped immediately, and Kakashi frowned, motioning for the doctor to stop mentioning this matter.

"How about the other Genin?" He changed the subject.

"After emergency treatment, I sent it back to Konoha first. Uzumaki Naruto is the last one."

"How's the injury?"

Kakashi picked up Naruto again and jumped onto the branch.Several people followed immediately.

"Nara Shikamaru was slightly injured, and Inuzuka's tooth was a little heavier, but his life was fine. Hinata Neiji and Akimichi Choji...it's hard to say now."

Even Yiren said so, the situation of Neji and Qiudao may be very serious.

Kakashi turned his head to look at Yayoi Hinata who was a little far behind on the right.The veins in the corners of her eyes let Kakashi know she was on guard.She was the one who led the way when the medical team came, but now she is at the end of the team, just like when they were on the same team during the war, she is responsible for the most difficult rear guard.

Too many things happened in these two days, and Kakashi didn't know how to face this unexpected reunion.

He thought for a while that he shouldn't have left Sasuke to carry out the mission that day, wondered for a while whether Orochimaru would kill the child, and thought that Tsunade-sama would be able to cure Neji and Akimichi, and finally thought about what she left behind six years ago. Scrolls and notes, and some expired canned fruit...

It doesn't feel real at all.Kakashi didn't even know whether he should be angry or not. He hadn't heard from him for six years, but now he suddenly appeared in front of him. He didn't have the disbelief and lost feeling when he first heard Akai say she was back. He could only feel The irritability and dazedness of being deceived.

He didn't speak any more along the way, and didn't even take care of Yiren's footsteps. He returned to Konoha as quickly as possible, and sent Naruto to the hospital.

After going through the hospitalization procedures, the doctor treated Naruto's trauma and opened a hanging bottle to hang water.

Naruto's pale face gradually improved, and his classmates came to visit one after another. Kakashi left the ward and gave them a space to talk casually.

He stood on the stairs for a while, then walked upstairs.

After going up two floors, the noise is far away, there is no crying of children, no tinkling of medicines in the trolley pushed by the nurse, the higher the floor, the silence is like two worlds.

The lights in the emergency room on the left hand side of the corridor on the sixth floor were on. Nara Shikamaru sat on the bench, hunched over like a shrimp, staring blankly at the ground, anxiously waiting for the result.

The sand ninja girl Temari opposite him looked at him from time to time, as if she had endured it for a long time, and finally couldn't help but shouted: "It's useless for you to be anxious! Sacrifice is inevitable in missions...not when you are in ninja school. Mental training sessions?"

"How can it be compared with actual combat?"

The sound of the dispute between the two was amplified in the empty and quiet corridor. Kakashi walked up the last step, turned around the connecting platform of the stairs, looked up, and saw Nara Shikahisa leaning against the wall with his arms folded at the corner of the upper floor.

The other party also saw him, nodded his head as a greeting, moved his chin towards that hand, and sighed softly: "The children still have a long way to go."

"Yes." Kakashi rolled his eyes, "Fortunately, he is lucky to have you by his side."

Lu Jiu snorted, pointed at the other corridor that intersected with this corridor, and patted him on the shoulder again: "Go quickly."

Looking in that direction, Kakashi hesitated instead.

"What's wrong?" Lu Jiu asked.

"It's nothing."

Noticing Shikamaru coming this way, Kakashi nodded at Shikaku and walked towards the long corridor.Behind him came Shikajiu's voice talking to Shikamaru: "Really...do you want to leave just because you can't say it?"

Shikamaru said: "It's so troublesome to fight with each other, I'm not a woman."

"Indeed." Shikamaru said in a deep voice, "But you are not a man, at best you are a coward."

The voices of the two of them were not loud, and Kakashi couldn't hear clearly when they turned a corner.The air became quiet again, and he saw Yayoi Hinata sitting at the door of the emergency room.

She seemed to be very tired, with her elbows resting on her knees and her forehead resting on her palms. Probably when she heard footsteps and her shoulders moved, she slowly raised her head to take a look.Focusing his eyes, he saw clearly that it was him, smiled and said, "I thought you didn't really want to see me."

Kakashi didn't know what to say, so he remained silent.

She said again: "Don't worry too much about Sasuke. The ninjas have done a good job. It has been delayed for a long time. Sasuke failed to reach the deadline for the Orochimaru longevity technique. At least for the next three years, he will be safe."

"...Yeah." Kakashi looked away.

A matter of his mind was resolved, but he couldn't feel relaxed.The rock that weighs on my chest is still there.

She also withdrew her gaze, rubbed her eyes that could hardly be opened, and took out a pill the size of a soldier's grain pill from her ninja bag. Kakashi could smell the stimulant medicine in it from a distance, before her brain reacted , stretched out his hand first, and snatched it from her hand.

She looked up at him in astonishment, her gaze crossed, and Kakashi clearly saw the red blood in her eyes, thinking that after Orochimaru and Sand Ninja had a big fight, Konoha suffered too many casualties and was understaffed, how could Tsunade send a Jōnin Taking the medical team to find the wounded, she must have just returned from the mission and was called to carry out it temporarily.Kakashi's hand holding the pill couldn't help but shattered into pieces in an instant, falling from his fingers to the ground.

The emergency room lights went out, Shizune opened the door, and Yayoi stood up immediately, seeing the unconcealable smile on her face, she had a judgment in her heart, and she heard Shizune laugh and said: "Ningji is out of danger!"

Yachang let out a breath, feeling a little exhausted as soon as the pressure disappeared, and sat back down again. "Very good……"

Shizune saw Kakashi next to him, and she knew from Tsunade that he ignored the scheduled task list and ran after Naruto and Sasuke. "How about Kakashi, have those two people been brought back? Are they seriously injured?"

"Naruto is downstairs, you know, he has strong resilience." Kakashi said.

There were also some noises from the other corridor, Shizune said happily: "It seems that Tsunade-sama's side is also over, I will report to her about Neji's situation."

After Shizune left, Kakashi left as well, and Yayoi stayed and waited for Neji to be pushed out of the emergency room.

She rubbed her temples, feeling tired, she wanted to take medicine, moved her fingers, her eyes fell on the powder on the ground, her heart sank, she leaned back against the wall, closed her eyes and tried to rest, and tried her best to maintain a trace of pain. Waking up, afraid that he would really fall asleep and miss Ning Ci coming out.

Dimly, I heard footsteps again, and opened my eyes to see Shikahisa Nara.

"It's Senior Lu Jiu..."

"Why, seeing me so disappointed?" Lu Jiu asked.

Yayoi smiled slightly, and sat up a little bit: "No, senior came to care about me, I am very grateful."

Lu Jiu snorted and looked at the door of the emergency room, which was still closed: "I heard from Jingyin that the rescue was successful, and it will be rolled out in a while. Don't worry too much."

"Well, I understand." Yayoi also looked at the door.

"What's the matter with you and Kakashi?" He asked again, "Just now he said that he still had a mission to leave, and his face was so stinky... how should I put it, it's really nostalgic. I haven't seen it for many years. He had that look on his face."

Shikajiu scratched his chin, trying to recall Kakashi's youthful appearance, completely different from the lazy and gentle one now.

Yayoi shrugged pretending to be relaxed and said, "As you can see...he doesn't seem to want to talk to me."

"How about it, are you sad? You haven't been treated like this before." Lu Jiu's tone was a little teasing.

"Yeah." She forced a smile, "Actually, I can understand... After disappearing for six years, and then appearing so suddenly, telling him that I'm not dead, but I just haven't contacted him... If I were in his place , will definitely be very angry."

"It's really bad." Lu Jiu agreed. "What are you going to do, just pretend that nothing happened, and then keep alienating?" Lu Jiu asked her.

Yayoi shook her head, she has never been good at emotional matters, in retrospect it was Kakashi who took the initiative to walk towards her, and she seemed to just stand there and wait for him.But now he just glanced at her and walked in the opposite direction.

"I don't know what to do for the time being... However, I will try my best to find a way."

"yes."

Lu Jiu smiled, reached out and patted the top of her head.Back then, the little girl who was too hurt by her companion's death and was afraid of giving her affection finally grew up like this.

The author has something to say:

This chapter has been written for two days...how to describe Kakashi's complicated mood is really too difficult...so I couldn't double-update yesterday
