April 2, 1961, Konoha
In the morning,
The morning glow
The brand-new curtains in Bo Fung Watergate's bedroom didn't block out the light outside the window and the chirping of the birds like its predecessor. Fortunately, the sun was covered by the bright red clouds, so it wasn't strong or dazzling. The birds were probably exhausted from defending their nest in the storm last night, so they didn't chase after each other or make a fuss. So the first one to wake up was the one who slept well last night.
Naruto Uzumaki would open his eyes at five o 'clock.
Naruto was about to jump up as usual when he suddenly realized,
He slept with his father yesterday. Now? He was still tightly hugged by his father like a pillow. It was very hot,
And his body was also covered in fine layers of sweat, and it was a little sticky and uncomfortable. But listening to his father's even and long breathing, he didn't dare to move at all.
However, his eyes were darting around quickly.
He wanted to use his gaze to wake up Kakashi, who was sitting on the chair beside the bed with his arms crossed and his head tilted to the side and snoring. But this day was busy with work,
The head of the secret department who came to take care of the teacher at night was really sleepy,
The sensitivity of the radar overhead also plummeted. However, Uchiha Shisui, who was black from head to toe and had red eyes, saw Naruto's eyes from a distance outside the window. In a breath, he stood beside Naruto's bed.
"Yeah,
It's Brother Red-Eyed Bunny. Why haven't you appeared recently? "Naruto opened his mouth.
"What can I do if your father doesn't let me appear?" Shisui ignored the "cute" nickname and replied calmly with his eyes.
"Well, at least you've appeared in time every time. I knew Kakashi wasn't as reliable as you.
He said he was here all night and was sleeping. "Naruto glanced at Kakashi, who was still sleeping." He's too careless. "
Kakashi had always been proud to the point of arrogance,
"It's not the first time you know." Shisui raised his eyebrows.
The corners of his mouth curled up.
He asked Naruto for advice. "Can I see your father's condition?"
"I called you out because I was worried! Also, I was held too tightly.
I want to go to the toilet! "Naruto continued to lip-sync.
Shisui gave Naruto a "as you wish" expression. Just as he was about to touch his loyal subject to see if he still had a fever, he was grabbed by a hand — it was Kakashi's.
"It's me," Shisui said softly.
"I know you'll wake him up." Kakashi shook off Shisui's hand, stood up, and stretched his sore muscles. He exchanged glances with Naruto, who had a look of dissatisfaction on his face, and reached out to check Watergate's condition. He told Naruto, "Don't worry." He finally let out a sigh of relief. Then, under Naruto's "hurry up" gaze, she gently pulled the teacher's hand and rescued the sweaty "obedient son bolster".
Naruto quietly climbed out of bed. He wiped his forehead and breathed heavily without making a sound.
Shisui saw this and quickly handed Naruto a large cup of cold water. Naruto poured it into his mouth and finally felt much better.
"How is it?" Naruto looked at Kakashi.
"The fever has stopped," Kakashi replied to Naruto, and then looked at Shisui. "Go and call Dou."
"I already did." Shisui opened the cabinet and took out a set of clean clothes. "Help him change his pajamas first. He's sweating a lot."
Kakashi, who was sleepy, nodded. He went up to Watergate's collar and was about to unbutton it. Naruto was scared and quickly stopped him. "Kakashi, you should go back to sleep."
Kakashi gently let go of his teacher, pressed his aching temples, and finally sat down obediently. No matter how sleepy he was, he couldn't go back to sleep. There were some things he had to ask immediately. Even if his teacher was unwilling to tell him, he had to force him to say it. This was related to the correct judgment of an Anbu Minister on many things. But now? Kakashi looked at Naruto in amusement as he stopped Shisui, who wanted to help, and at the same time created three copies of himself to help his sleeping father change his clothes. As a ninja, it was better to have more Chakra, unlike him. No matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't reach the level of Chakra. This Naruto Uzumaki was really enviable. Unlike him …
But was it really a good idea to let Naruto, who was good at pranks, take care of his father? Kakashi looked at Shisui, who was trying to hold back his laughter, and then looked at the three Naruto, who finally helped his father change his new shirt. He didn't know whether they were buttoning it or fighting, and he almost suffered internal injuries. Why were the buttons so strange? Yes, they were buttoned correctly, but the shirt was worn inside out.
Kakashi threw Shisui a glare.
— — It's not like you haven't taken care of Naruto before. Don't you know to give Naruto a shirt without buttons?
Shisui pursed his lips. Who would have thought that this young master would still wear clothes without looking inside out. I'll pay attention next time. But adults don't have many clothes. Except for these shirts that are rarely worn, the rest are really dirty and haven't been washed.
Kakashi got up and glanced at the basket of dirty clothes in the toilet. Sure enough, it was full. Did Kabuto only wash one of the clothes that he said yesterday? Kakashi threw another glare at Shisui. — — Don't tell me they are so short of manpower that they don't even have anyone to wash Naruto's clothes?
Shisui also threw a glare at Kakashi.
What do you think? I understand that you want to transfer Genma and the others to fill the gaps in Konoha's upper management. Those important positions need our own people. But now there are only seven Naruto's guards, including me. If I send two to protect Naruto, I won't even be able to fill in the gaps in the security. Otherwise, how could he run away with Gen's people from the hospital without me knowing! Kakashi, if you really can't do it, let Gen come back and continue to be on duty with adults. At least there will be someone to do the housework.
Kakashi sighed and nodded. If you want to recruit new people, you have to. — — I'll try to think of a way, but Gen can't. You have to be vigilant. After all, they are not our people.
Uchiha Shisui could only sigh. Together with Kakashi, they looked at Naruto who was still struggling with the buttons. Kakashi walked over and patted the shoulders of the three Naruto. He chose one that looked like the real one and whispered in his ear, "That's an old-fashioned shirt. The buttons were originally buttoned inside."
"Really? Didn't I wear the shirt inside out? "After a puff of smoke, another Naruto looked at Kakashi suspiciously.
Kakashi broke out in cold sweat and his face turned red. Once again, he was glad that the mask was a good thing. He was not like his teacher, who could make any expression he wanted! So in order to quickly resolve the awkwardness, he nodded seriously, held Naruto's shoulder, and turned him to face the door. "Go cook some porridge for your dad. Make sure to cook for a while. Add some salt and sugar. By the way, Doudou will come later. Naruto's food always makes everyone energetic all day, so by the way, please make breakfast for everyone. "
Cook for everyone? Naruto nodded. Anyway, it was convenient. And it turned out that the father who ate the canteen and the father who ate the food he cooked were not in the same mental state. … So it should work for others too. So the good boy turned back and carefully covered his father with the quilt, and went downstairs looking back three times with each step.
Kakashi poked his head out and saw Naruto enter the kitchen and close the bedroom door with a bang. He sighed, walked to Watergate, and lifted the quilt. "Is it fun? Sensei! Open your eyes if you're awake! Your son was worried sick about you! You actually played with him! Look at what you're doing! Do you look like a good father? "
Watergate secretly opened his eyes, ignoring Kakashi's anger. He reached his hand to his mouth and bit the back of his hand, smiling silently.
Kakashi sighed, pulled his teacher up, and reached out to the Shisui for water. "How do you feel? Hurry up and drink some water. Your lips are cracking and peeling."
Watergate let Kakashi pull him, but he still smiled. … Kina, do you see? Our son is so cute. Those three just now. There is no creature cuter than our cute son in the world. Chinai, if only you were still alive, we could have a few more children. They always laugh at us for wanting to have a platoon of children, but if only we could have a platoon of children, how wonderful would that be? " If only … we wouldn't have used contraception in the past few years. We always wanted to wait until we settled down, settled down, settled down …
But Kakashi, who was holding the water, was fuming. He pulled Watergate's hand away from his mouth, pinched his chin, and poured the water down his throat.
Watergate, who was still smiling, didn't expect Kakashi to do this. He didn't react and choked on the water. Shisui quickly pulled Kakashi away and patted Watergate's back.
Watergate took a while to catch his breath. Kakashi silently handed him another glass of water. "Drink."
Watergate looked away.
Kakashi knelt down with a thud. "Drink water!"
This time, it was Minato who was fuming with anger. He knew that his disciple liked to do stupid things sometimes, but he was clearly normal now that he was an adult! Minato sighed, resisting the urge to kick Kakashi, and winked at Shisui, who had an awkward expression on his face.
Shisui disappeared and stopped Kabuto who was about to come in through the window.
"What's wrong?" Kabuto, who was directly dragged to a tree by Shisui, was puzzled.
"We'll go later. They're about to fight." Shisui let go of Kabuto and signaled his colleagues to calm down. He found a branch and sat down.
Kabuto pushed his glasses and looked at Naruto's bedroom window. "Kakashi and Naruto?"
"No, Kakashi and Sama."
Kabuto nodded and sat down like Shisui. Since they could fight, there was nothing urgent. So he took out the cafeteria brand bread, opened the package and began to eat. But maybe he felt that it was not proper for him to eat alone, so he asked, "Do you want a bite?"
Shisui looked at the half-eaten bread and shook his head firmly. "Naruto is making it."
Kabuto continued to eat with satisfaction. As for Kakashi and Naruto, what were they fighting about? He didn't want to know. He only knew that as long as the person he was loyal to was fine, he could get everything he wanted. The rest really had nothing to do with him.
Then the camera returned to Watergate's bedroom.
Watergate held a cup and slowly drank water. Kakashi was still kneeling on the floor.
Finally, Watergate drank up the water and pushed Kakashi's head with the empty cup. Kakashi looked up at the cup and didn't move.
Watergate sighed. "Kakashi, a man's knees are used to kneel to the dead. Kneel when I die. Don't forget to burn more paper money."
Kakashi got up. "Didn't you say that you couldn't live a few days ago? Why aren't you dead now?"
Watergate didn't blush and continued to offer the cup to Kakashi. "Give me another cup of water. My throat hurts."
Kakashi reluctantly took the cup, poured water, and stuffed it back. "You scared Naruto this time. Do you want to tell the truth to Naruto?"
"What truth? I'm just too busy with work. I can't eat or sleep well. My nervous breakdown suddenly became serious. "Watergate laughed as he drank water." I've always been a good person who loves life. Really. "
"Well, it's true. Naruto can be quite stupid sometimes, but that's because he grew up in a safe environment. He knows that no one will hurt him even if he doesn't use his brain. But once he realizes that the world is not what he imagined, how smart can your son be? "Kakashi narrowed his eyes and said in a serious tone.
"Oh, you can say something so reasonable. Are you interested in being Naruto?" Watergate's tone became frivolous.
"Your son is now in a rebellious period. Aren't you afraid that he will develop a bad character?"
"Of course not. Our Naruto will be kind, passionate, brave, upright, not afraid of power, upholding justice, believing in friendship and love, and having all these happiness, from birth to death. "Watergate smiled and refuted Kakashi.
"Is that so?" Kakashi sneered. "My father also expects the same of me. But unfortunately, if you really list all the things I've done, I won't touch any of them."
"You're just in the wrong line of work."
"Naruto is also a ninja."
"… I already said that in the future, the ninja profession will definitely change. Naruto and the others won't be the same as us."
"Ridiculous ideals."
"Haven't I been working hard in this direction? You see, 90% of Konoha's finances were obtained through assassination, poisoning, alienation, and other missions. We only cared about whether the target was Konoha's enemy or not and how much the mission reward was. But now? The majority of Konoha's finances are taxes, escorts, bodyguards, and even intelligence spying are commercial missions. Doing business is about making money peacefully. Our investors won't fight and destroy the market order that we worked so hard to establish. "
"Sounds good, but how many Konoha Ninjas can understand and agree with you? You're just relying on your strength and personal prestige to force your way through. Who knows if all of this will turn out to be the moon in the water after you die? "
"Okay, Kakashi, don't beat around the bush. I was just in a bad mood a while ago. I'll pay more attention in the future."
"I hope so." Kakashi looked at Watergate's clear eyes and sighed in relief. "You've actually said this many times. I hope this is the last time."
"I'm hungry. I can already smell the delicious porridge Naruto made for my father." Watergate didn't respond to Kakashi's words. He wobbled out of bed and locked himself in the bathroom.
"There's no more rice at home. It's probably rice porridge." Kakashi knocked on the bathroom door. "You can wash your face and brush your teeth in the bathroom, but you're not allowed to take a bath. You haven't eaten well these days. You'll faint from hypoglycemia."
"I'm not that useless."
"You're not that useless … Oh, by the way, many Anbu members are asking when Naruto's guards will choose a new member."
"I don't want to."
"There's not enough people. Look at the dirty clothes in your bathroom. It's not realistic to pack everything to the logistics."
"I'll wash it when I'm full."
"Well, even if you still have the mood to wash clothes, what about the guards? For example, Gen, who went out with you last time. You tell me, in that case, if he was someone else's nail and took a knife to your heart, are you worthy of the food Naruto cooked for you every day? "
“⋯⋯”
"And Naruto, he was able to learn Shadow Clone Jutsu without our knowledge. Now, he still won't say who taught him. Although the person who taught him probably has no malicious intent, what if someone is really targeting him?"
"Anyway, Naruto's guards won't add people. Those dead people will also have a chance to be resurrected. "
"Then who will you use? Gen? Let them replace Naruto's guards? Look at the dirty dishes in the kitchen and the toilet bowl in the bathroom. If I didn't want to wash them, I wouldn't be able to live. Also, those Gen didn't even manage to get rid of the kissing dolls. "
"That's because I didn't make it clear to them in the beginning." Watergate answered indifferently.
Kakashi followed up with another attack. "Then you should make it clear. What's with the kissing dolls? "
"Didn't you already destroy them?"
"I went to the National Capital and forcibly stopped the performance for the little princess. I should at least make a report."
"Just tell the truth. Naruto doesn't want to see that strange joke of a magic trick appear in such a serious occasion like a wedding."
"Then what's with the explosive talismans and poison in the kissing dolls?"
"Who told you that there were explosive talismans and poison in the kissing dolls?" Watergate opened the door and walked out. He had a toothbrush in his mouth and looked surprised.
"I destroyed them myself." Kakashi carefully observed his sensei's expression. It was flawless.
"Then I don't know." Watergate's expression was even more puzzled.
"Then why do you care so much about those dolls?" Kakashi sighed.
"Because I feel embarrassed." Watergate slammed the door and continued to brush his teeth.
Kakashi rubbed his nose that was almost crushed and knocked on the bathroom door again, "Don't play dumb. Tell me the truth. You know what I mean."
"Idiot." Watergate opened the door again. By this time, he had already cleaned himself up. Except for the inside out shirt, everything was clean and tidy. "Why are you still so stupid at this age?"
If I'm stupid, then teach me well. Kakashi was choked by his sensei's words and didn't say anything.
"Why aren't you talking? It's good that you know you're wrong. Come, give me a hand. It's true that you'll feel dizzy if you don't eat for a few days. "Watergate put his arm around the silent Kakashi's shoulder.
Kakashi sighed. He immediately pressed Watergate onto the bed, "Sleep a little longer. It's still early. I shouldn't have let you get out of bed just now."
"I'm in a hurry." Watergate smiled, "Kakashi, go tell Naruto that I'm awake and I'm fine. Also, bring up some food. "
"Okay." Kakashi nodded and helped Watergate take off his slippers and cover him with the quilt. Then he walked to the window, opened the curtains, and waved at Dou and Shisui on the tree. Then he went downstairs.
Downstairs, Naruto was cooking porridge seriously and didn't notice Kakashi at all. Kakashi stood behind Naruto and gestured with his hands, "Naruto, you're a lot taller than last year."
"Of course, I'll be taller than Dad sooner or later." Naruto turned around and pouted, "My dad's awake."
"Ah." Kakashi pulled out a chair and sat down. "Kabuto is examining him. Is there anything that can be eaten immediately?"
"The porridge will be ready soon." Naruto turned down the fire even more and pulled out a chair to sit down. With a serious expression, he said, "Kakashi, while the porridge is boiling, I think we should continue the topic from yesterday."
"Ah, tell me, who taught you [Multiple Shadows]?"
"Don't play dumb. You know what I mean."
Kakashi was amused by this particularly familiar sentence, "Well, well, the reason why your father has been sick recently is because he wanted to pretend to be sick. You see, if he is not sick, he will go to the National Capital. If he goes to the National Capital, he will see the Mizukage. If he sees the big-breasted Mizukage, he is afraid that he will not be able to control himself and find you a stepmother."
"You … the world's greatest idiot!" The 13-year-old Naruto Uzumaki still hadn't learned how to control his anger. He kicked Kakashi's shin.
White lies and lies, which is more hurtful
