After tidying himself up, Kato Mitsukaze had deliberately changed into a clean set of equipment. When he arrived at the cafeteria, he saw a familiar white-haired figure sitting alone at a table in the corner of the front row of the cafeteria.
Kato Mitsukaze finished getting his food and carried the tray over to the corner.
"I saw you sitting here alone from afar. You still like to be alone so much!"
"By the way, did getting married and having a wife not change your personality at all?"
Before he could get close, Kato Mitsukaze's words were heard. There was a hint of helplessness in his voice.
Sitting at that table and eating alone was none other than Kato Mitsukaze's old classmate, Hatsuki Shigeru.
Not only was Hatsuki Shigeru sitting there alone, no one was eating at the surrounding tables.
…
Hatsuki Shigeru, who was sitting opposite Kato Mitsukaze, heard Kato Mitsukaze's words and raised his head to look at him.
He continued to eat his breakfast at a leisurely pace. There was not much breakfast in front of Hatsuki Shigeru. However, it was arranged neatly.
Soup was soup, vegetables were vegetables and staple food were staples. Everything was neatly arranged in their respective places. Even some food scraps were neatly piled up together.
Hatsuki Shigeru had a head of short white hair. It was clear that he had carefully combed it this morning. He was also very handsome. He was clearly in the prime of his life, but he always gave people a sense of maturity and steadiness.
Hatsuki Shigeru's Shinobu Kiba equipment: Ninja Forehead Protector, Jonin Vest, Ninja Tool Bag, etc., were all neatly taken care of by the owner.
Especially the short sword inserted in the sheath on Hatsuki Shigeru's back. The blade was not visible in the sheath, but the handle was obviously well taken care of by the owner. From Kato Mitsukaze's point of view, he could see the reflection of light on the handle.
This short sword is obviously the owner's favorite.
The name of this short sword is White Fang.
And the owner of White Fang, Hatsuki Shigeru, most of his body is also on White Fang.
After Hatsuki Shigeru became famous in the ninja world, he will also be named after his beloved short sword, White Fang.
…
After Kato Mitsukaze finished his words, he did not wait for the other party's answer.
Sitting opposite Hatsuki Shigeru, he placed his breakfast and began to eat his breakfast.
Obviously, Kato Mitsukaze knew the character of his old classmate very well, he did not expect to get an answer immediately.
Eating without talking, this is one of Hatsuki Shigeru's rules of conduct.
For a time, the table was very quiet, only the small chewing sound of the two people eating breakfast can be heard.
Kato Mitsukaze and Hatsuki Shigeru's eating speed is not slow, soon the two of them finished their breakfast, the plates and leftovers in front of the two of them were placed on the other side of the table.
At this time, sitting opposite Kato Mitsukaze, Hatsuki Shigeru leisurely replied to Kato Mitsukaze's question.
Saying, "Last night, when I returned to the camp after my shift, there was an internal ninja who told me that you came to the camp yesterday and looked for me."
"I thought you would come to me last night, I waited for you all night."
Hatsuki Shigeru's words completely ignored Kato Mitsukaze's words and directly talked about the things he cares about.
Kato Mitsukaze replied, "I returned to the camp too late last night, it was almost midnight, I know your rules, so I didn't go to you."
"Speaking of time … You still have 20 minutes, after half an hour, I have to attend the daily routine meeting in the camp … Kato, did you come to the Northwest Camp for a mission this time?"
"Also, I forgot to congratulate you for being promoted to Shinobu Kiba …"
When he heard Kato Mitsukaze mention the word "time," Hatsuki Shigeru looked at the time. He got up and walked out of the cafeteria with their trays while gesturing for Kato Mitsukaze to follow him.
"I … I thank you for your congratulations."
"20 minutes? I'm also very busy, alright? I came to the Northwest Stronghold's main camp this time to go on a mission and also to see you."
Kato Mitsukaze could not do anything about Hatsuki Shigeru, so he could only follow him out of the cafeteria.
Hatsuki Shigeru was such a person. Putting aside the fact that he was strong and had perfected his family's swordsmanship, he had his own principles when it came to doing things. Sometimes, he even seemed old-fashioned and unreasonable.
During his time in ninja school, Hatsuki Shigeru was a famous genius ninja from Wood Leaf. Of course, due to his personality, he did not fit in with his peers and did not have many friends.
As Kato Mitsukaze was curious about what Hatsuki Shigeru looked like behind the mask, he got closer to him during their time in ninja school. He could be considered one of the few friends that Hatsuki Shigeru had.
Kato Mitsukaze could not even tell if the two of them were good friends. It was just that Hatsuki Shigeru's personality was too strange sometimes.
Kato Mitsukaze knew that in the original work, Hatsuki Shigeru committed suicide in the end. However, he did not know the exact reason. He figured it had a lot to do with his personality.
Due to Hatsuki Shigeru's personality, Kato Mitsukaze had also tried to persuade and ridicule him a lot.
However, Hatsuki Shigeru was still the same old Hatsuki Shigeru. He was strong and had his own principles when it came to doing things. Sometimes, he even seemed aloof and unapproachable.
Over time, Kato Mitsukaze and Hatsuki Shigeru got along well and only ridiculed his personality.
…
After Kato Mitsukaze left the cafeteria behind Hatsuki Shigeru, they walked side by side towards Hatsuki Shigeru's office in the stronghold.
The two of them chatted as they walked, and their conversation could be heard from afar.
"Hatsuki, I heard that you didn't even finish your honeymoon after getting married before accepting the mission to be stationed at the stronghold's stronghold in the Northwest."
"Do you have to work so hard for the mission? How can you be at ease leaving your new wife alone at home for such a long time?"
Kato Mitsukaze did not forget what he had said to Hatsuki Shigeru when they first met, so he started the conversation again.
Hatsuki Shigeru was speechless.
"I keep feeling that there's something wrong with what you said, Kato. Also, aren't ninjas born for the sake of missions? Let's not talk about me anymore. Let's talk about your mission at the stronghold's stronghold. "
"Did you bring the latest news about Wood Leaf Village? I feel that the atmosphere in the ninja world has been getting weirder and weirder recently. The conflict with Sand Village, Rock Village, and Rain Village has been getting more and more intense recently. There was even an invasion attack a while ago … "
Hatsuki Shigeru was silent for a while. After thinking about it, he replied to Kato Mitsukaze's question and changed the topic back to the mission and the situation in the ninja world.
"My trip to the stronghold's stronghold in the Northwest … Wood Leaf Village …"
Kato Mitsukaze could not do anything about the inflexible Hatsuki Shigeru. He could only start talking to Hatsuki Shigeru about his mission at the stronghold's stronghold.
After that, the two of them did not talk much in Hatsuki Shigeru's office. Other than some simple reminiscences, they mostly talked about the mission and the recent situation in the ninja world.
Of course, it was mostly Kato Mitsukaze talking while Hatsuki Shigeru listened. It was only when he occasionally heard a question that he was interested in that Hatsuki Shigeru would interject and say a few words.
In a short 20 minutes, Kato Mitsukaze and Hatsuki Shigeru ended their conversation as old classmates.
Hatsuki Shigeru set off to attend the daily jounin meeting at the stronghold's stronghold's stronghold to start the day's work.
Kato Mitsukaze did not waste any more time in the stronghold. He immediately left the stronghold and headed west in the direction of the Kingdom of Wind.
Today would also be a busy and tense day for Kato Mitsukaze. There were still 11 missions waiting for him to complete in the Kingdom of Wind.
