60 Years in Konoha
Konoha, Land of Fire
January 6th, Sunny
11: 30 Noon
It was the busiest time of the day in Naruto's office.
But the leader of the Four Generations, Naruto and Bo Fung Watergate, was sleeping.
Hatake Mansion
Guest room
Anyway, Uchiha Itachi came to report to his boss at the end of the day and saw such a scene as soon as he entered the room.
:
The room was dark, and the curtains were thick. There was a bed under the curtains, and there was a quilt on the bed. The quilt was neatly spread, and there was a person under the quilt. The person was covered from head to toe, and nothing was exposed. Uchiha Itachi's heart skipped a beat. If it weren't for his sharp senses, he would have thought that the person under the quilt was breathing and heartbeat.
Itachi sighed secretly. He was a little curious as to why Naruto -sama didn't go home during the two days off, but stayed at Kakashi's house. But Itachi gave up the opportunity to explore, because the Anbu's code of conduct only made his curiosity disappear. So he calmly opened the notebook in his hand and said according to the instructions, "Sir, it's almost 12 o 'clock. Please get up and eat something. What do you want to eat for lunch?"
The person under the quilt turned over, but the quilt was still neat. "Isn't there a nutritious meal? Where's Kakashi? "
Itachi looked down at the notebook and replied, "Kakashi -sama was called to Naruto's office early in the morning. He said that if you don't like the nutritious meal, you can forget about it."
The person under the quilt answered vaguely, "Then go to the cafeteria and get whatever you want. Anyway, there are only a few kinds. You can decide."
Itachi continued to sigh secretly. He looked at Naruto, who obviously couldn't be woken up, and then looked at the notebook that couldn't give him an answer. He spread out his hands and signaled the Shadow Guard on duty, "What should I do?"
The Shadow Guard glanced at his boss, then glanced at his new captain and shook his head slightly, "He has a sore throat. Something light."
Itachi was mad. He really didn't understand, so he could only confirm with his lips, "What doesn't he eat?"
The Shadow Guard was also furious. He took off his mask, pointed at his lips, and mouthed to Itachi, "His throat is sore. If you dare to use any food that makes him feel uncomfortable — Captain, just wait for Kakashi -sama's special training."
Itachi was speechless. He wanted to tell these Shadow Guards that he didn't mind special training and that he was the leader. However, he felt that if he really told the truth, there was a high chance that he would be beaten up. Because it's one of the ancient bad habits of ninja to instruct the younger generation and the younger generation can't resist.
However,
"I've never eaten in the canteen." Itachi pointed at Naruto, who was still tossing and turning, and lip-synched to the Shadow Guard on duty. "How would I know which dish he can eat?"
The assassin was silent and glanced at Itachi. This time, Itachi understood. "It's useless."
Itachi felt that he was about to explode. He was really about to explode. Why, why, this is bullying the newcomer. Right, right — since you can take off your mask and talk properly, why do you have to look around every day! He felt that he really couldn't do it. This time, he absolutely had to resist. "I …"
The Shadow Guard was speechless.
…
"Are you two done whispering over there?" Naruto, who seemed to be disturbed, finally lifted the quilt and got out of bed. He looked at the two people staring at each other, sighed, and went to wash his face, brush his teeth, and shave.
Listening to the sound of the electric shaver in the bathroom, the two people continued to stare at each other, but this time, they didn't make a sound.
— Don't underestimate the sensitivity of a powerful Kage level ninja!!!
Itachi still didn't understand the look in the eyes of the Shadow Guard, but as a young elite Jonin who had a great chance to reach the Kage level in the future, he could still consider others from his own point of view.
"What can't he eat when his throat is sore?" Itachi asked softly with his lips — the small volcano in his heart was extinguished before it could erupt.
"Ask — ask the people in the cafeteria, stupid sleeping god captain. I'm from the combat system, no one from the medical system is on duty today! "
Itachi was still speechless. He turned around and went to pick a suitable lunch for his Naruto — he suddenly felt that he was really stupid. Did he really become stupid because of these guys who were used to doing things in the dark? For such a small problem, he could have gone home to have a meal and asked his mother about it.
A growing teenager's mind was usually full of independence, even if he didn't realize it himself.
Konoha, the Land of Fire
January 6
12 o 'clock
Naruto's office.
The other captains who participated in the Wave Country mission were sent away. The four ministers in Konoha and the new intern minister were relieved. They were ready to discuss the follow-up issues one by one and then go to the cafeteria to have a meal together.
"Okay, Kakashi, you can take off that ridiculous mask. Now the confidentiality levels of the entire office are finally on par."
In the General Staff Department Calculator No. 1, Mr. Hiroyuki was finally released from the careful task issuance — gathering people with different confidentiality levels to discuss the same issue and ensure that the secrets that shouldn't be leaked — was this something that a human could do?
"Alive, I'm an Anbu member, dead, I'm an Anbu member. As the Anbu minister, it's my duty to wear the mask to hide my identity." Kakashi insisted.
"Hey, intern minister Kakashi, when did you become so rule-abiding?" The senior minister drank a mouthful of water, "Anyway, it's meaningless to wear it. Anyone who knows you will be able to smell Kakashi's unique bloody smell from afar — ridiculous."
"Rules are rules. I learned it from your son. But what do you mean by wearing dark sunglasses in the room — isn't that even more ridiculous? "
"Government affairs are cumbersome and harmful to the eyes. I wear sunglasses to protect my precious eyes. It's none of your business — and my son has always been well-behaved. Of course, you're much more hardworking than my son."
"Matriarch Uchiha, are you provoking Matriarch Hatake?"
"As an elder, can't I praise you?"
"Uchiha Fugaku, this is the second time — don't think that I can't understand what you mean."
…
Looking at the two people who were quarreling for no reason. Hiroyuki Yamanaka, who started the topic, decided not to talk nonsense in the future. But, "Is there anything wrong with Fugaku's words?"
Shikaku Nara, who continued to organize the documents, said to his friend softly, "You're more hardworking than my son means — you're not as smart as my son."
"Really?" Hiroyuki began to help Shikaku classify the newly received information.
"With my IQ, I can guess this much …" Shikaku suddenly stopped and then motioned to Hiroyuki to get ready.
Hiroyuki turned around.
"Bam!" Hinata began slamming the table again.
"You two want to fight?" Hinata clenched her fists and faced Fugaku and Kakashi.
"Let's fight, I'm not afraid of you!" Uchiha Fugaku took off the ridiculous black sunglasses that blocked his vision and punched Hiashi in the eye.
The head of the Hinata family, who was famous for producing masters of Taijutsu, gently dodged to the side and then elbowed back. Uchiha Fugaku covered his other eye, which was probably bruised, and squatted down to look for his sunglasses.
"Alright — let's continue the meeting." Hyuga Hiashi stood in front of Kakashi, who was already stunned, and said to everyone.
"Yes, senpai." Kakashi quickly returned to his seat.
"Kakashi, you heard it just now. Regarding the Wave Country, the spies have basically been arranged. The General Staff Department hopes that you can take the lead this time. After all, you are Naruto's guard captain and disciple, and you often attend foreign affairs activities, so there are many people who know you. It's very suitable for you to be a target. "Shikaku Nara's Hiroyuki Yamanaka was the first to speak.
"Understood."
"As for the specific plan, the Intelligence Department has chosen to start with a bridge expert. He is currently working with some people to rebuild the land passage from the Wave Country to the Fire Country. That person is being hunted down by the Cardo organization. The spy from the Intelligence Department saved him once, and has hinted that his plan will only succeed if he comes to Konoha to issue a protection mission. He should be able to come over after the New Year. We will try our best to let your team receive this mission without leaving any traces. So you and your team must be prepared to leave at any time. "Shikaku Nara saw that Kakashi was listening attentively, so he continued." Protect that person and build the bridge. Then you will have to kill Cardo with the support of the people of the Wave Country. This is for the sake of the people. Do you understand? When the time comes, the spies will contact you. "
"Understood."
"Then the spies will take the opportunity to receive the spoils of war according to the plan and the actual situation. You have to remind the Anbu to cooperate with the Intelligence Department and support the public opinion."
"Understood."
"Since you understand, do you have any other opinions?" Hinata saw that the two of them had basically explained everything, so she finally asked.
"No, sir." Kakashi looked at Uchiha Fugaku, who was quietly sitting with his head down, and almost wanted to stand at attention.
"Then I will fill in the official mission list." Hinata picked up a pen and wrote on the mission list.
"You fill in …" Kakashi actually wanted to say as usual, "Ah, I feel that Cardo is really wronged." But today, he decided not to.
He felt that his understanding of the world was beginning to collapse. What was reality and what was illusion? Was the world really as he saw it? He was a little regretful. He was the captain of Naruto's Guards. Why did he agree to represent this damned Anbu Minister who didn't even have the right to vote?
The world was not strange at all. What was strange was the strange worldview of people.
…
January 6, 60 Konoha, 23: 55 p.m.
Hatake's old house.
Other than eating, Namikaze Minato, who had slept for the whole day, got up on time.
He went to Danzō's ward in Konoha Hospital in the cold wind. He had to watch Shimura Danzō inject drugs into his body in seconds. Then, when the person on the bed was completely dead, he would be dragged to the morgue for dissection and burned to ashes.
"You died at the wrong time." Bo Fung Watergate yawned.
Danzō smiled at Watergate apologetically, "I'm a powerful Elder. I want to die with dignity. It's not too much to ask. "
"I mean, why do you have to count the seconds? Do you really believe that you can be a good person in your next life if you die at the right time?"
Watergate cracked the corner of his mouth. He felt that he had made a joke of himself.
Danzō looked at Watergate, who couldn't stop laughing, and sighed, "Little Watergate, is it really that funny?"
"Yes, it's funny enough."
"Then you should smile more." Danzō also twitched the corner of his mouth, "You look more trustworthy when you smile. Although I don't think so, it's said that the young people all say so."
"Oh, I thought those who say that are all nymphomaniacs."
"Also, don't force yourself too much. Wisdom is not separated from one's nature. You know what this means, right?"
"Yes."
"Also, take care of yourself. Don't tire yourself out. There's still a long way to go."
"Yes."
"And …"
"Senpai, if you have any other requests, just say it." Watergate rubbed his eyebrows, "I'll do my best to help you."
"I don't have any requests, really. Do you think I'm willing to die while babbling like this? Although the drug I'm using now can count down to the exact second, it's too slow. I can't let you sit around and watch me die. "
"That's true."
"That's why people never do things without a reason. Just like me, I had a good friend when I was young. Ah, it's not that group of living trash. Anyway, before I went to the battlefield, I said that I don't want to be born on the same day, month, and year, but I want to die on the same day, month, and year. But then we did a mission together. You know, missions are like that. In short, if he didn't die at that time, I would have died. So he died and I lived. Then I thought, since we can't die together on the same day, month, and year, at least we can die on the same day. "
