Naruto: Starting with Itachi Uchiha, He trained the ninja world

Chapter 42: The Crouching Dragon and the Young Phoenix, Double Happiness Arrives!

Hokage Building.

Kazuhiko arrived at the Third Generation's office and received the mission scroll.

"The ANBU ninja escorting you have arrived."

The third generation exhaled a puff of smoke:

"He will guide you and protect you until the treatment is over."

Kazuhiko nodded, but he was making guesses in his heart.

Could the ANBU ninja sent by the Third Hokage be Uchiha Shisui?

According to information from the Uchiha clan, the strongest ANBU ninja in Konoha at this time is undoubtedly "Shisui of the Body Flicker".

With Shisui accompanying us, we don't need to worry about Danzo causing any trouble this time.

Kazuhiko understands.

Danzo will most likely not make a direct move against him until he obtains all the secrets behind Danzo's ability to unlock the three tomoe.

However, we must not be complacent and guard against Danzo suddenly having a mental breakdown and committing a fatal act.

So this time when he leaves the village, Heitan will accompany him on the mission.

If Kazuhiko is truly in danger, the Ninja Cat Clan will use the Reverse Summoning Technique to help him return to Konoha and escape peril.

The office door was then pushed open, and a very recognizable ninja walked in.

The newcomer was dressed in a black bodysuit, with a dark-colored standard vest over it, and a headband hanging diagonally across his forehead, obscuring most of his face.

His silver-white hair stood up in a mess, like a clump of weeds blown about by the wind.

A black mask covered most of his face, leaving only one eye visible.

He had his hands in his pockets, his shoulders slightly slumped, and he exuded a cold, unapproachable aura.

Kakashi Hatake!

Kazuhiko recognized the other person immediately.

Kakashi, at 15 years old, was already a veteran of three World Wars.

His strength is clearly no less than that of Zhishui.

The Uchiha clan's intelligence is indeed terrible; they didn't even know that Kakashi, with such obvious characteristics, had returned to the village.

Kazuhiko had barely uttered a thought in his mind when the Third Hokage began to introduce him:

"He's the ANBU ninja who escorted you, his name is..."

"I know, Kakashi Hatake, an elite Jonin."

Kakashi tilted his head slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in his exposed eye.

But he quickly returned to his listless state.

"Do you know him?"

"The name of the Copy Ninja is known to all in Konoha."

Kazuhiko smiled, but his gaze fell on Kakashi's eye, which was covered by his headband.

There, a Mangekyou Sharingan is hidden.

Things are getting better.

Finally, I had the chance to unlock the Kakashi-themed gacha banner and pull the noble Space Kaleidoscope.

If you can draw Kamui, it seems unnecessary to choose the Perception type for the advancement mission.

"Lord Hokage, let's set off."

Kakashi then looked at Kazuhiko, his voice calm:

"Let's go, time is limited for the mission."

He turned and left, his footsteps so light they made no sound, his back exuding a cold indifference that kept people at a distance.

Just as Kazuhiko was about to follow, the Third Hokage suddenly spoke:

"Kazuhiko, stay."

Kazuhiko turned around, and the Third Generation stood up from behind his desk, walked up to him, and lowered his voice:

"Besides treating Tsunade, there's something else."

"Please speak."

The third generation looked towards the doorway, their gazes complex.

"Kakashi... was a good kid. But his father, teammates, master and mistress, all the people he loved were dead."

"Now he is cold and aloof, and has no friends other than Kai."

The third generation's hand rested heavily on Kazuhiko's shoulder.

"I hope you can use your psychological expertise to guide him, to help him stop being so withdrawn and isolated, and to help him step out of the shadows and darkness."

Kazuhiko looked at the aged faces of the three generations and felt a pang of emotion.

Pay one fee and do two jobs.

No wonder he was able to become Hokage.

"I promise you."

He Yan nodded and said solemnly:

"I will do my best."

The Hokage has given the order; how can the Uchiha stand idly by!

Konoha, Loyalty!

……

The morning mist has dissipated in Konoha Village.

Kazuhiko and Kakashi walked one after the other on the stone path.

Kakashi kept his hands in his pockets the whole time, walking at a leisurely pace, his gaze fixed three meters ahead, avoiding eye contact with anyone.

Kazuhiko was pondering what topic to use to gain favor with Kakashi and unlock his gacha pool.

Suddenly, a green figure darted out from the side street, bringing with it a gust of wind.

"He's appeared! My destined rival!"

The newcomer was wearing a green bodysuit, with thick eyebrows that looked like two caterpillars, and teeth that shone white. He was giving Kakashi a thumbs up.

"Kakashi, let's have a passionate, youthful showdown!"

It was Might Guy, the Blue Beast of Konoha.

The man who almost ended the series with a single kick.

Kazuhiko's eyes lit up.

Double happiness!

Sure enough, wherever Kakashi is, Might Guy will be there too.

The Sleeping Dragon and the Young Phoenix always appear in pairs.

However, Might Guy's appearance was truly unbearable to look at.

Kai's outfit was truly bizarre.

The green bodysuit accentuated his exaggerated muscle lines, and his black watermelon-shaped haircut was shiny, revealing both his large and small head.

What's most striking is his posture:

With his legs slightly bent and arms outstretched, he resembled a frog poised to pounce, radiating an aura of intense passion that was almost overwhelming.

Probably, possibly, maybe...

This must be Kai's youth.

Kakashi finally stopped.

He sighed, his one exposed eye half-open, his voice filled with deep helplessness:

"I'm busy today."

"Have you forgotten our promise?!"

Kai lunged at Kakashi, grabbed his shoulders, and shook him violently.

"You cannot refuse a challenge from the winner!"

"Tell me, what are we going to compete in today?"

"I'll bet you, I won't lose, even if I have today's breakfast as the stake!"

Kakashi's hair flew wildly as he was shaken, but his expression remained indifferent.

He remained silent for three seconds, then thought of a way to get rid of Kai immediately:

"Rock, Paper, Scissors"

Kai froze, his thick eyebrows furrowing in shock.

"Compare this?"

"This really tests a ninja's perception and reflexes."

Kakashi's voice was completely flat, as if he were stating a fact.

Kai tilted his head, thought seriously for five seconds, and then clapped his hands as if he had just realized something:

"I see! Kakashi, as expected of you, even a simple duel can contain such profound meaning!"

Looking at the scene that seemed so familiar from his memory, Kazuhiko wanted to say something:

Kakashi is just trying to avoid trouble, so he's just giving you a perfunctory answer.

Moreover, is there even a sliver of a chance for you to win a game of rock-paper-scissors with a Sharingan ninja?

If you really want to win, you'd have to open at least six gates of the Eight Gates Formation, right?

"I accept!"

Kai struck a one-legged stance again, his eyes burning with fighting spirit.

"I absolutely will not lose! If I do lose, I'll run 500 laps around Konoha Village!"

Kakashi rubbed his disheveled hair, pulled his mask up, and said nothing.

With Kazuhiko present, all he wanted was to get rid of Kai as soon as possible.

Even someone as aloof as him felt that covering only half his face was too conservative when he was surrounded by onlookers with Kai.

"We made a promise!"

Kai looked serious, his hands behind his back, ready to play rock-paper-scissors.

Kazuhiko certainly didn't want the competition between the two to end quickly; he wanted to use this opportunity to break the stalemate with Kakashi.

"What if you win?"

Kai turned his head to look at Kazuhiko, revealing his signature bright smile, his white teeth gleaming in the sunlight:

"If I win, after Kakashi treats me to breakfast, I'll reward myself by running 500 laps around Konoha!"

Kazuhiko:……

Is there any difference between what you're doing and losing?
