July 10, 61 Konoha
It was still raining.
Konoha, the Land of Fire
Hatake's old house
Until the sky turned from dark to day.
Uchiha Shisui, who was on guard on the roof, finally waved his hand to disarm Naruto's guard.
He returned to the courtyard. Then, he flashed his red eyes.
He looked at Kakashi, who was leaning against the living room door frame and dozing off.
He snuck over silently.
A few seconds later.
"Swish." A black shadow was thrown out of Kakashi's hand. Now it was Kakashi behind Shisui.
Kakashi looked at the cold sweat flowing down the back of Shisui's neck.
He raised his eyepatch.
"Shisui is only so-so."
"Otherwise, he wouldn't have become a dead piece so easily." Shisui's eyes darkened and he shrugged.
He sat down on the sofa.
"By the way, the complete version of Thor is really amazing.
It's a pity that Four Generations -sama only taught me once. "
"He'll be happy to teach you a second time." Kakashi also sat down. "But it's a pity that you won't ask for a second time."
"I'm an elite Jonin who can fight against a Kage Level Ninja.
It's only right to have some self-respect. "Shisui sighed." How are you feeling today? "
"Terrible."
"I found that since you became the Anbu Minister, you're getting more and more uneasy."
"Then you have to see what's going on."
Shisui took out Naruto's leave note from his pocket and slapped it on Kakashi. "Three days.
It's been three hours since Itachi found the leave note. It's only been three days. I told you yesterday to sleep at ease. With the imagination of Four Generations -sama, he should have suddenly appeared from the office at 8 o'clock in the morning. "
"Today is the 10th of the odd month. At 8: 30, the field Jonin captains are going to report to him." Kakashi pulled his hair. "He's never been casual about this kind of thing."
"Then he suddenly appeared in the small conference room."
"I hope so."
And time passed.
At 7: 55, Kakashi and Shisui, who still hadn't received news of Naruto's return to Konoha, pushed open the door to Naruto's office.
Itachi, who was wiping the table, was stunned. He had never seen Kakashi's face so ugly.
Even if he was wearing a mask.
“012110,
Get back to work. "Shisui was getting impatient.
But when he heard the night shift captain, who was a little close to him, speak,
Itachi no longer cared about Kakashi. He continued to wipe the table leisurely.
Then, she poured Naruto's cup for the first time in the morning. This way, after finishing the urgent documents in the morning, the water in the cup would be just right for him to drink. But today, Naruto still didn't appear even after the water turned a little cold. Itachi looked at the silent Kakashi with his head lowered, and cast a puzzled glance at the other senpai who never took off his mask.
Shisui gave Itachi a look. "It's none of your business."
Itachi was never a busybody, so he continued with his work.
But after a long time, Itachi was still puzzled. Because Kakashi and the senpai didn't seem to have moved since they came today.
"Let the people in the small conference room leave first." Finally, Uchiha Shisui looked at his watch and said to Kakashi.
Kakashi nodded, waved his hand a few times outside the window, and asked, "What time is it?"
"9 o 'clock sharp." Shisui coughed.
Kakashi took out his Thor communicator and pressed a string of numbers. "Genma, come to Naruto's office."
"It's so busy in the morning." The noise quieted down, and the unique sound of Genma chewing on iron could be heard. "If yesterday's document was signed by Lord, please help me deliver it to me. The other things are easy to delay, but we still have to reply to the Lord's letter as soon as possible, lest the National capital starts to gossip about us. The messenger is waiting right here. "
"A letter?" Kakashi quickly took out the letter and glanced at it. It was red with gold and looked quite dignified. "What's the content?"
"You didn't read it."
"It's too classical."
"It's to thank Lord Four Generations for introducing a good wife to him, to express his gratitude."
"Then let him wait!" Kakashi's voice was a little hoarse. "Come here!"
Genma opened the door three seconds later. "What's the matter?"
Shisui nodded to Itachi. "We have something to talk about, please clear the room."
Itachi's reason and pride told him that even the senpai of the guard didn't have the authority to command his peers within his scope of work, but his body honestly obeyed the command and went out to guard.
"Okay, tell me, why are you two so serious?" Genma's heart skipped a beat.
"He didn't come back." Genma sighed.
"Lord Four Generations?" Genma bit his lower lip and glanced at the two people in front of him. "The letter was written by Lord Four Generations himself, using Kakashi's home paper. Three days is also correct, the latest was written before Itachi entered the office, 7: 45. Could he have woken up late? He was going to come back in the morning, but he didn't wake up. Haha, that's very possible. "
"That's true." Shisui thought for a moment and looked at Kakashi. "What do you think?"
"Naruto's biological clock is at 5 o 'clock in the morning. With his liveliness, it's impossible for Sensei to sleep until now." Kakashi's voice was very soft. "He's been more sleepy in recent years, but apart from last year's pneumonia and fever, has he ever been really late?"
"That's true." Shisui frowned again.
"Also." Kakashi glanced at Genma and winked at Shisui.
Shisui realized that he had almost forgotten something important. No matter how hard he tried to cover it up, Bo Fung Watergate had passed his peak. Ninjas who have passed their peak are still strong, but they are like old machines, they will be stuck from time to time even if they are oiled. Most importantly, Golden Flash's enemies were all over the world.
Genma looked at Shisui, who suddenly became nervous after exchanging glances with Kakashi. He knew that there was something that they didn't tell him. But he still didn't think that there would be any problems, and once again he almost couldn't help but say his analysis. The Four Generations definitely did it on purpose this time. He deliberately went out and deliberately came back late. When he came back, he didn't know what kind of trouble he would cause, because … But in the end, Genma rationally swallowed the words that shouldn't be said and asked some nonsense. "Did you contact him before?"
"He didn't bring his communicator, and the coordinates I drew on him and Naruto are all invalid." Kakashi smiled bitterly. "Unless Nidaime-sama comes back to life, he's the only one in the world who can erase my Thor coordinates."
"Then let's wait a little longer. It's not like Naruto is the only one missing." Genma became more optimistic after hearing this. "By the way, didn't you chase after him that morning?"
"I lost him, and he deliberately gave me a false coordinate." Kakashi found that his eyelids were twitching. "Now my mind is full of all kinds of accidents. The next time I let him go out alone, my surname is not Kakashi!"
"Your surname is Hatake." Genma looked at Kakashi who looked like he wanted to break someone's leg. He wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. "Besides, Sama didn't go out alone. He brought Naruto with him. Do you think that with Naruto around, Watergate -sama will allow an accident to happen?"
Shisui nodded again, but Kakashi's face was still pale. He gritted his teeth. "It's because he's with Naruto. If something happens to Naruto, what do you think he'll do?"
Genma had no choice but to pat Kakashi. "Let's wait a little longer. I'll go back to the General Staff Department and report to the other departments. It's normal that Naruto's return is delayed. By the way, have you sent people to look for him? "
"We've sent out all of Naruto's guards." Shisui sighed. "There's no trace at all."
"Then we'll continue to wait."
They waited until the rain gradually became heavier.
Hatake's Mansion.
After confirming that Naruto was most likely to Thor's coordinates, Kakashi, Genma and Shisui sat silently on the low sofa in the living room. The room was eerily quiet. The only thing they could hear was the muffled thunder outside the window and the pitter-patter of the rain hitting the holly. And whether it was indoors or outdoors, it was gloomy. It didn't feel like it was just past 2 o 'clock in the afternoon.
"The weather is changing so fast. If we were to shoot a movie, it would be a necessary melodramatic scene." In the end, it was still Genma Oshihuo who broke the silence. But just like before, no one paid attention to him. Genma looked at Shisui, who was resting with his eyes closed, and then glanced at Kakashi, who was staring blankly at the three-pronged kunai on the lantern rope. He picked up a rag and began to clean up the leftovers left by the three people on the coffee table. Then, he poured a cup of hot tea for everyone before sitting down and continuing to deal with the documents that he was supposed to deal with — trivial and boring, but still had to be done by someone, someone reliable at that.
The sound of the rain continued. Suddenly, an explosion sounded from the west of Konoha. Then, the entire Konoha sounded the alarm.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh." The three lights disappeared, and Kakashi and the others appeared on the roof of Hatake's Mansion.
"Hey, is there anyone here? Is Brother Blackie here? Hurry up and save me. "
Kakashi was the first to recognize Naruto's voice. He broke through the window and rushed in. Then, behind the glass and wood fragments, he saw a huge pile of gifts scattered all over the floor, and Naruto Uzumaki, who was under the pile of gifts and shaking one hand.
"Are you okay?" Kakashi hurriedly pulled Naruto up. Genma and Shisui also came in to check Naruto's body. "Are you hurt anywhere? Where does it hurt?"
"No, no, no." Naruto was so scared that he almost couldn't speak. "Are you all crazy? This is my dad's bedroom. You, you, you broke the window and came in."
"Let's talk about the window later." After realizing this fact, only Uchiha Shisui was still rational. "Where's your dad?"
"Ah. He's fighting with a beautiful woman with a mature body. "Naruto drew circles in front of his chest with his hands and smiled strangely.
Kakashi finally let out a sigh of relief and sat on the bed. "Why is your dad fighting with your grandma Tsunade?"
"Pfft, my grandma?" Naruto patted the wood and glass fragments off his body. "You all really are crazy today. Isn't my dad an orphan? And she's a beautiful woman who's younger than my dad. "
"That's your grandpa Jiraiya's dish." Shisui glanced at Genma, who was now a little sober.
Genma understood and stopped his urge to complain. He became serious. "Naruto Uzumaki Genin, as the acting Chief of Staff of Konoha, I order you to answer my questions. Answer whatever I ask."
"Yes." Naruto froze for a moment and quickly stood at attention. "Genin 012670 reporting to you."
"When did you and Naruto -sama return to Konoha?"
"About 20 seconds before you arrived on my roof."
"Why didn't you return at the scheduled time?"
"I wanted to wake my dad up at 7, but because we chatted too late last night, I slept for a while."
"Phew." Genma finally let out a sigh of relief. "What time did you get up?"
"A little after 9: 30."
"But you shouldn't have come back after lunch." Kakashi's eyebrows twitched. "No one dares to control your dad. He's used to being willful. You too. It's been so many times. Do you think your family will be worried if you don't remember to come home on time?!"
"Why are you yelling at me!" Naruto felt wronged by Kakashi's scolding for no reason. "It's not my fault this time. Dad said he wouldn't be able to make it to the meeting in the morning anyway, so he left. "
"Forget it, Kakashi. If it's Sama's decision, it's the same no matter who goes with him." Genma sided with Naruto. "Then Naruto, why did you shout for help just now?"
"Don't mention it." Naruto pointed to the gifts all over the floor. "Dad, you carried me and the gifts and flew to Thunder God. Because there were too many gifts, if we went to the office, it would be embarrassing if there were outsiders, so we flew back to our own home."
"I'm asking you why you shouted for help." Kakashi frowned.
"You saw it. It's buried." Naruto waved his hand. "There were too many things. Dad might have slipped on something when he landed."
"Slipped?" Genma's heart skipped a beat. He glanced at Kakashi and Shisui, who were also frowning.
"Yes, it's embarrassing." Naruto was even more confused. "Then I heard the woman laughing. Dad fought with the woman for a while, then got her to the open space by the door. Then there was a bang, and the two of them disappeared."
Genma hurriedly poked his head out of the window and looked down. He saw a large crater with a radius of about the size of an adult's body. "It's the Hime Tsunade."
"The question is, where are the two of them now?" Kakashi picked up the intercom. "I'm number one. I'm asking about the reason for the alarm."
"It seems that there's a private fight between Jounin."
"Location."
"They're moving fast. I can't track them."
"Understood. Please report back." Kakashi turned off the intercom and rushed out without a word.
And so, the camera jumped from the westernmost part of Konoha to the easternmost part of Konoha.
The Forest of Death
The dense foliage covered the sky like a dark umbrella, blocking the lightning, rain, and people outside.
Bo Fung Watergate leaned against a towering ancient tree and stretched. His bones creaked. "It's been a long time since I've exercised so vigorously. Phew, it's so enjoyable."
Tsunade ignored him. She squatted on the ground, holding a blue Chakra in one hand and pinching Watergate's ankle with the other. "Does it hurt here?"
"It's not very painful." Watergate didn't seem to be in pain at all. "But if you pinch harder, it won't just be a sprain, it'll be a fracture."
"Oh, so it's a sprained ankle, not a broken bone." When Tsunade heard Watergate's words, she immediately stood up, and the blue Chakra in her hand extinguished. "Then when the guards find you, let the boys rub it with a hot towel. It'll be fine in two days."
Now Watergate was anxious. "Ahem, Tsunade-nee-san. It's embarrassing to let the children see. "
"You forgot to drag it out." Tsunade crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows.
"Tsunade-nee-san ~"
Tsunade continued to treat Watergate, but she wouldn't shut up so easily. "You should've told me earlier if you sprained it. I never bully the sick."
"I didn't expect to sprain it." Watergate scratched his head and looked at Tsunade's trembling shoulders. "Forget it. Laugh if you want."
"Hahaha." Tsunade laughed out loud. She sat on the ground holding her stomach and pointed at Watergate with a trembling hand. "Thor sprained his ankle. Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter. How did you survive until now? Hahaha. "
"God knows why my floor was raised so much." Watergate moved his ankle. "To be honest, I was scared by you. Why are you sitting on Kina's dressing table like a ghost?"
"Don't move too much." Tsunade quickly pressed Watergate's instep. "Medical Ninjutsu is only for emergencies. Tomorrow, no matter if it's swollen or not, continue to heat it."
"Ok." Watergate smiled and narrowed his eyes. "I can understand why you came to my house. But why did you touch Kina's things? I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation."
"Oh, the infatuated old man is angry." Tsunade snorted. "The cosmetics have expired many years ago. What's wrong with throwing some away for you?"
Watergate gritted his teeth and took out a pocket-sized scroll from his sleeve. "This is your mission book. With this, you can leave Konoha openly. No one will dare to call you a traitor anymore. The Senju family won't have to be restrained by other families to protect a coward like you."
"I don't care." Tsunade grabbed the scroll and turned to leave.
But Watergate caught her.
"Hiroyuki was treated according to your wishes. Mute was also kept according to your wishes! What else do you want? Bo Fung Watergate, you've already killed Orochimaru. You won't dare to touch me again! " Tsunade suddenly became angry. She turned around and punched again. Bang! The tree that took five people to hug fell.
Watergate stroked the remains of the tree. "It's also a life."
"Give birth to a ghost." Tsunade kicked him again.
Watergate dodged to the side. "Can't you speak properly? The Sandaime is old and soft-hearted, but he won't make things difficult for me for two traitors. He's still a Naruto."
Tsunade stretched out her leg for a few seconds before putting it down. "Okay, I'll give you a piece of my mind. You're a group of idiots who will die a horrible death. Their families are broken up, and they still feel good about themselves. They're idiots who dare to die generously after receiving a few casual compliments!"
"Apologize." Watergate took a deep breath.
Tsunade seemed to be even more agitated. "Then tell me, how did your wife die?"
Watergate interrupted Tsunade with the cold air of the three Kunai. "Don't try to provoke me."
Tsunade interrupted them with an even more presumptuous laugh. "Hahaha, what an admirable husband. Bo Fung Watergate, don't think that I don't have something on you. I'm just too lazy to care about these trivial matters in Konoha."
"You don't."
"Then let's make a bet." Tsunade sneered. "I'll bet. You dare to bet that I don't have something on you."
"There's no need to take risks if there's no winning or losing bet." Watergate finally sighed deeply. "Stop fooling around. I'm going through all this trouble just to solve this problem left behind by history."
"You're doing this so that Mute won't be bullied by others for leaving Konoha with me in the future."
"You could say that." Watergate's mouth twitched. Finally, he asked, "Hiroyuki's illness."
"He really won't die ~" Tsunade revealed a sarcastic smile. "Naruto, you're really admirable. You care about your subordinates, but they don't care about you. Right? The Golden Flash who has no reason to live longer than Hiroyuki? Tsk tsk, Konoha has always been like this. The selfish living enjoy the happy life created by the dead. "
"You're really an annoying person." Watergate clenched his fist and continued to take deep breaths. "One last thing. Get out of here after you're done."
"Say it."
"Give me some more of that medicine."
"I didn't give you any medicine." Tsunade frowned.
"You asked Jiraiya -sensei to bring it to me. It's white and a little sweet. It'll make me feel better after I eat it."
Tsunade opened her mouth, then laughed out loud. She took out a medicine bottle and threw it at him. "You're talking about this thing? You little fool. How could you believe Jiraiya's words? This is just an ordinary bottle of xylitol. "
"Sugar?" Watergate shook the bottle. "It's actually quite useful."
"Idiot."
"So be it." Watergate put away the medicine bottle and looked at Tsunade who was stubbornly crossing her arms. He suddenly felt a little sympathetic. "I'm sorry for taking away your Mute, but I think money can still help you solve your food, clothing, and housing problems to a certain extent, so don't gamble it all away. Also, if you really lose to the point where you can't afford to eat anymore, come back. It doesn't matter if I'm Naruto or not, you can still come back with the mission I signed. Take care. "
"You too." Tsunade had already walked some distance away, but after hearing Watergate's words, she suddenly felt a little soft-hearted. "Little Watergate, when you're in a bad mood, do something to make yourself feel better, such as gambling, drinking, raising a small animal, and so on. And that medicine, I can't say it's useless, but it's just like the powder under your eyes. It doesn't have any practical significance. "
"It's still better than having dark circles every day."
Whitewashing is the ability, responsibility, and obligation of every adult.
