February 21, 60 Konoha
The Land of Fire, Konoha
11 PM
Sarutobi House
Sarutobi was summoning the Hinata Patriarch, Hinata.
He knocked his pipe and looked up at Hiashi, who seemed to be standing in front of him forever, and couldn't help but feel disgusted. "You mean, Kakashi found a Mist Ninja outside and prepared to fill in the guard of Bo Fung Watergate?"
"Yes, he came to the logistics office with the official household registration order yesterday." Hinata lowered his head slightly to get closer to Naruto's inquisitive eyes.
"Is that so? I think they've already made the necessary arrangements. That's why they're showing it to you."
Hinata didn't speak.
Looking at the silent Hinata Patriarch, Sarutobi pulled the corner of his mouth. "Well, let's take it that Kakashi is telling me that he has the ability to help his Sensei successfully integrate the Anbu and the Root in a few days. This better not be the reason why Bo Fung Watergate let Kakashi go. Ah, a traitor."
Hiashi respectfully whispered. "Four Generations -sama said that he is not a traitor of Konoha."
"Haha." Sarutobi couldn't help but smile: "He still doesn't think that he's a troublesome person, isn't he?"
"Four Generations -sama must have his own considerations."
"Don't talk nonsense, Hinata Patriarch, you don't come to me casually. Let's talk business."
"Sandaime-sama, Four Generations -sama really doesn't have anything special for me to convey."
"Then why are you here?"
"Hinata just sent me to greet you. Do you have any orders?" Hinata bowed.
"If I remember correctly, you Hinata brothers have always been Bo Fung Watergate's people." Sarutobi looked at Hiashi's expressionless eyes and said slowly.
"Hinata will always be loyal to Konoha." The Hyuga Patriarch's tone was firm, "And letting the Uchiha continue to grow is not good for anyone."
"You really understand." Sarutobi coldly laughed at the person in front of him.
"Yes, Sama."
"That's why I hate you. Bo Fung Watergate saved your life, more than once."
"Public and private is private, and it is good to separate public and private."
"Then tell me. Back then, in order to save your kidnapped daughter, you disregarded orders and rescue arrangements and went to kill the people of the Lightning Country without permission. Is that a private matter or a public matter?"
"Diplomatic disputes are of course private."
"Hehehe, that Minato didn't kill you or your brother under such great political pressure at that time to resolve the dispute. Was this a public matter or a private matter?"
"Politics is not a public matter."
"Then is your life also a public matter?"
"Of course, the Lightning Country shouldn't be spying on the Byakugan, because the Byakugan belongs to Konoha."
"Is that so?"
"So, as Four Generations -sama said, he didn't save my life. He protected Konoha's interests. Could it be that Sandaime-sama is really willing to let other ninja villages laugh at Konoha's incompetence and let your subordinates die unjustly? "
"How is that possible?"
…
At the same time.
Naruto's office.
"Haha." Bo Fung Watergate looked at the thing Kakashi just handed to him. He didn't care that there were other people in the office and laughed so hard that he was lying on the table.
"Sensei, don't laugh." Although Kakashi expected that the joke might be funny to Sensei, he didn't expect that his cute Sensei would laugh alone for 5 minutes.
"I really can't stop when I think about it." Bo Fung Watergate wiped his eyes. He thought that he was laughing until tears came out.
"Sensei!" Kakashi looked at Naruto who continued to lie on the table and looked at the guest awkwardly.
"Kakashi, today it's Hizashi, not Hiashi." Watergate finally raised his head and looked at the other person in the office.
"My brother is just naturally serious."
Hinata Hizashi frowned and was puzzled. "Four Generations -sama, what made you laugh like that?"
"Can you change the word?" Watergate sat up straight and was about to speak.
"Sign it, I'm waiting to use it."
Kakashi took advantage of the opportunity. He had already forgotten his original plan to make Sensei laugh.
"Yes, yes." Naruto, who had a sense of humor, signed the "joke" with trembling hands and returned it to Kakashi. "Kakashi, there's nothing for you to do here. If you're done with your work, go back."
"Yes, Sensei." Kakashi looked at the two people who were eager to have a secret talk. He waved his hand and commanded the Anbu on duty to retreat, leaving space for the two people, and then silently retreated.
"I haven't seen you so happy for a long time." Hizashi saw Kakashi leave and leaned on Naruto's big desk. "Tell me, let me laugh too."
"You know Zabuza, right?"
"I know, he killed all his classmates and graduated to become a ninja, one of the seven Mist Swordsmen, suspected to have killed the Four Generations Mizukage. Didn't he die in the hands of Kakashi some time ago? Are you showing off your disciple?"
"It's just a Zabuza. I'm laughing because Kakashi didn't kill him and brought back a Kekkei Genkai from Yuki Izukage. "
"It's not funny … You're looking for trouble. What will you do when the Mizukage comes to you? If you're not careful, it'll be a diplomatic dispute."
"Guess." Naruto smiled like a fox and continued without waiting for Hizashi to answer. "Kakashi also asked me, and I said that Zabuza is obviously dead. The one in Konoha is called Momochi Zabuza. What Yuki Izukage, it's Yuki Izukage. As a result, my disciple is famous for his filial piety, so he directly registered it publicly. I swear, I was just saying it casually. "
Hinata Hizashi looked at Naruto who began to laugh again and could only spread his hands to express helplessness.
Naruto's behavior was not obvious when he was young, but now? It's getting more and more confusing.
Obviously, he was a person who loved to laugh since he was a child, and a little thing could make him silly for an afternoon. But no one was willing to listen to his jokes. Because Bo Fung Watergate's jokes are not funny at all.
This person's sense of humor is always off. Good word, invented by Shikaku Nara, especially a guy who seems to never laugh at the same frequency as others. Hizashi clearly remembered that there was a time when Shikaku, who would die if he didn't tell jokes, would never open his mouth to make fun of Minato when he saw him coming from afar.
"Hizashi, what are you waiting for, let's get down to business."
Hinata Hizashi returned to his senses and saw that his Naruto had already put on a business-like face. Although he immediately made a report reflexively, he still couldn't resist the urge to roll his eyes, even if his eyes were always white. "My brother is now with Sandaime-sama."
Naruto nodded. "Well, I know, you know, I understand. I'm sorry that there is still this kind of situation where the government can't be unified, and the trouble caused to your family is really not what I want. "
Looking at Watergate's serious face, Hizashi felt that his Naruto was really telling a joke. "Yes, sir, should I say that? Please don't say that, sir, you make me nervous."
Watergate continued to nod. "Well, then should I say that there is no need to be so nervous, everything is still under my control? I'm just saying that fortunately, there are two brothers in your family, it's really good, the family can be divided into two families."
"My brother and I are two people." Hinata Hizashi looked at Naruto who took the initiative to reveal that he actually didn't care about the second half of the sentence, and sighed. "Otherwise, why do we have to divide the main family and the branch family? Hinata's ancestral teachings — Eggs can't be put in one basket."
"Haha." Naruto seemed to be in an inexplicably good mood today. "If you have the ability, then give birth to a few more children. Later on, each country will have one child, and in a few generations, the whole world will have the surname of Hinata."
"You don't think so, that was a long, long time ago … and then … in the end, in short, only the Fire Country survived. But it's really hard to say, maybe a long time ago, even the Uchiha family was separated from the Hinata family. "
"If Fugaku hears this, he will fight with you."
"Someone who can't even beat my brother … Even if the sunglasses can cover the bruises, it can't stop the gossipy heart."
"You're really evil."
"Same here." Hizashi stretched his arms and legs, but he still couldn't help but lean on the desk.
"It seems that the new office really needs a few more chairs for guests." Watergate looked at Hizashi who also liked to lean on his desk.
"Don't tell my brother about this. The new office is estimated to be used for another half a century. The future Hokage will scold him to death. If a weak person comes, he will have to ask them to sit down, which is even weaker. If a strong person comes, he will have to find a way to not make trouble and tear down these chairs. "
"Aren't you afraid that the people standing here will scold your brother?"
"It was like this in the first generation, so no one will scold you. At most, they will scold the office."
"You know."
"Hinata have always been very clear."
"I agree." Watergate squinted his eyes and smiled, secretly looked around, and suddenly made a shushing gesture.
Hizashi looked at Watergate who stretched out two fingers and made a gesture of holding a cigarette. He immediately smiled and understood, but he couldn't find his cigarette box even after rummaging through all his pockets.
"I take back what I just said." Watergate looked at the embarrassed Hizashi and sighed. He lowered his head and opened the drawer and took out two boxes of cigarettes.
"You've been prepared for this." Seeing that Watergate had a cigarette in his mouth but still couldn't find the lighter, Hizashi shook the lighter in his hand and lit it under someone's expectant gaze.
Bo Fung Watergate finally relaxed and stretched his body on the chair, happily blowing out smoke rings.
"You are really … Why don't you just tell them that you want to smoke?" Hizashi looked at Watergate's satisfied expression, then looked at the no-smoking sign in Naruto's office, and suddenly felt that Naruto is indeed not a good job.
"I've always been a smoker, but what can I do if I can't quit?" Bo Fung Watergate also sighed, "So when I said that you are welcome to come here often, it's not a lie. Fortunately, it's you who comes here, and not your serious brother."
"Hey, my serious brother is more suitable for the Sandaime's mansion." Hinata Hizashi also lit a cigarette for himself.
"You are getting more and more impolite …"
"Hey, we grew up together, why are you talking like that? I heard that Naruto, a few days ago ~"
"Hey, why are your ears so long!"
"My Yasuji always tells his father everything," Hizashi leaned close to Watergate's ear and whispered, "Those little boys have learned to get together and discuss which girl is prettier."
"At this age, isn't it the time to set fire to a girl's hair?"
"They aren't stupid enough to do that kind of stupid thing to a Konoha ninja."
Watergate's face was full of fear, "Let's not talk about this kind of problem."
"You are Naruto, I will listen to you. How about you let me see the two new Anbu who made you laugh so much that you can't stop laughing – how about it? "
"You will see. Pay attention. After the Kakashi Anbu training, they will be Naruto's new Shadow Guard. After the Chunin Exam, I will release a group of old guards to fill the administrative system. If Hinata wants to put a nail in my head, please hurry up. "Bo Fung Watergate put out the cigarette in his hand and was thinking about whether he could have another one.
Hizashi looked at Watergate's hesitation, "Forget it, whether it's being targeted by your Shadow Guard or becoming your Shadow Guard, it's not a good thing."
"You say it like I'm in a tiger's den." Watergate decided to have another one. The last one …
So,
Kakashi, who couldn't bear it anymore, finally knocked on the door to remind the two elders about the time.
"Please don't smoke in Naruto's office. Hizashi-senpai. "
"Kakashi, Anbu -sama." Looking at Kakashi who pushed the door open, Hizashi subconsciously blocked Naruto behind him.
"Why are you so weird today?" Kakashi looked at Hinata who was a little embarrassed and smiled happily.
"Well, Hinata, if you want to smoke, go home and do it. Naruto's office prohibits smoking. Put it out. "The one who spoke was Naruto.
"Yes, Senpai!" Hyuga Hizashi looked at Minato who was sitting upright and still without a trace of anger, and he couldn't help but admire him. Looking at the subtle expression on Kakashi's face, he decisively left. He felt that since the purpose of this trip has been achieved, it's more important to go home and sleep late at night …
Naruto's office was still brightly lit.
Kakashi has cleaned the ash on the floor and threw the cigarette box on the table out of the way. When he turned around, he saw Naruto who had lowered his head and continued to finish today's work. He sighed faintly, took out his cigarette box from his pocket, took out a cigarette, and put it in Senpai's mouth.
Watergate smiled and looked up.
Kakashi approached him and lit it. "This time is an exception. You want to tell everyone that your relationship with Hinata is still good. Can't you just eat ramen together? Why do you have to smoke together? Also, don't smoke Asuma's inferior cigarettes in the future. "
It's a nuisance to take sides, but people have to form cliques to survive! "
