Hokage: What Should I Do If I’m Not A Genius?

Konoha Gate

"Finally home!"

Kakashi and Taichi sighed with tired expressions as they carried Shikato.

After spending a long time sleeping in the open air, Taiyi and the three of them lost their image, their clothes were in tatters, and they were covered in bloodline.

In particular, the deer man's head and arms were wrapped in gauze, which looked very miserable.

At this time, the Konoha guards also noticed the three of them and hurriedly came to them.

One of them asked: "What's going on? How could you be so seriously injured?"

The other two people also hurriedly took over the simple stretcher.

Faced with the inquiry, Taichi opened his mouth to explain and told what happened when he met Jōnin during the mission.

On the way back, Kakashi and Shikato did not ask Taichi how they escaped from the powerful masked man.

But Kakashi knew very well that facing a powerful enemy like the masked man, Taichi must have paid a high price to save himself and Deer Man from his hands.

So if Taiyi doesn't take the initiative to say it, Kakashi will not only not ask, but will also help Taiyi keep this secret.

But Taiyi doesn't think so. The three of them must have the same voice on this matter, otherwise as long as there is a slight discrepancy, the three of them will be the targets of investigation.

Kakashi and Shikato are not afraid of being investigated, but Taichi is not. If Taichi is found to have owned the Nine Tails Chakra, something big will happen.

Therefore, Taiyi took the initiative to express his hope that the two would help Taiyi keep the secret, and of course the two agreed.

In the end, the three of them agreed on the same goal. The prerequisite was that they met Jōnin during the mission. Without this, Jōnin and the three of them would not have been so seriously injured.

The three of them were indeed beaten violently by Jōnin, and when they were about to be killed by Jōnin, another group of people appeared, and the two sides clashed, and the three of them saved their lives.

Taichi also gave Kakashi the credit for saving people based on the severity of his injuries. After all, no one would believe Kakashi even if he was injured like that.

Kakashi wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that what Taiyi said made sense, so he agreed.

As for why the deer man was carried back by Taiyi and Kakashi?

It started three days ago.

At night, Taiyi and Lu Ren woke up one after another. Lu Ren found that his arms were so seriously injured that he felt that he must be disabled. Eighty percent of the effort in Gentle Fist was done on these hands. How could he achieve this look now? ideal? Suddenly my heart felt like death.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Taichi and Kakashi took turns to persuade him and promised that as long as he returned to the village, his arm would be restored to its original state. This gave Deer Man some hope again.

So, taking advantage of the darkness, the three of them set off in the direction of Konoha. Kakashi wanted to carry Shikato on his back, but Shikato firmly disagreed.

Perhaps due to his pride, Deer Man insisted on going on his own, but because it was dark and the road was slippery, and his arms were unable to move, he was unable to maintain his balance, and finally fell down without any accident.

Not only did he smash his head, but he also broke his leg. If this happened, Deer Man would definitely not be able to continue on his way. Taiyi and Kakashi could only use local materials to make a simple stretcher and carry Deer Man back.

What was supposed to be a day and a half journey turned into a full three days!

Hearing Taiyi tell his embarrassing story, Luren's face turned red and he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in, but he couldn't move his arms, so he could only close his eyes and pretend to be dizzy.

After listening to Taiyi's explanation and seeing Lu Ren "fainted", the guards thought the injury was getting worse and did not dare to delay, so they immediately sent Lu Ren to the hospital.

Taiyi and Kakashi looked at each other, but did not expose Deeren. After all, no one should be blamed for such a thing, and no one should be deprived of three rooms and one living room.

Declining the guard's offer to escort him to Konoha Hospital, Kakashi supported Taichi, and the two of them walked slowly towards Konoha Hospital.

Walking on the streets of Konoha, a fragrance came.

"GuluGulu"×2.

Kakashi and Taichi looked at each other and smiled.

…

On the other side, the Hokage office.

The Third Hokage sat upright in his seat and listened to the guard tell Taichi's words again.

"…The above, Hokage-sama."

Third Generation nodded and waved his hand to indicate to the guards that they could leave.

"My subordinates resign."

After the guards left, Third Generation thought about what he had just said.

He squinted his eyes, thinking a lot.

Although it is reasonable, Third Generation always feels that something is wrong, but it can’t explain it.

One Chūnin, two Genin, if there is no accident, escaping from the hands of Jōnin is simply impossible!

Not to mention Taichi and the three of them, even when they were Third Generation Genin, they would die facing a Jōnin, and die happily!

Therefore, everything that happened was so reasonable, and it was this kind of reasonableness that made Third Generation feel a little unreasonable.

…

Konoha Hospital.

Kakashi and Taichi, each holding a grilled squid, walked to the door of the hospital and finished their last bite.

Throwing the sign into the trash can coolly, the two of them walked into the hospital.

As soon as the two entered the hospital, medical staff immediately came forward and took them to the treatment room.

The main reason is that the two of them were dressed so badly. It looked like they had been seriously injured after a fierce battle. Although they were not as good as the one who was sent in just now, the condition was not good either.

After careful inspection, Kakashi was fine. It was just a minor injury and he would be fine after some treatment.

Taiyi was different. Not to mention the muscle strain, just nourish it. Some of the meridians in his right hand were severely damaged, as if they had been cut open with a knife.

This was the first time the doctor had seen this situation. He wanted to ask Taiyi, but suddenly found that the child seemed familiar.

He asked somewhat uncertainly:

"You look familiar to me. Are you... Taiyi?!"

The doctor observed carefully again and found that the child looked a bit like the young genius who had been working in the hospital for a year!

Taiyi had a sad expression on his face.

"Brother Quantian, I thought you would recognize me immediately. I'm so sad, wuwuwu~"

It's no wonder that Izumi Tian couldn't recognize him. The way Taiyi looked now, with unkempt hair and dirty face, it would be an exaggeration to call him a savage.

Mainly to ensure safety, Taiyi and the others did not contact anyone or enter any town for three days. They were afraid of being discovered by the Evil God Cult.

Having worked with Taiyi for so long, Izumi Tian certainly knew Taiyi’s character and was playing tricks, but he still asked with some concern:

"What happened to your right hand? This is not an ordinary injury. The damage to the meridians is just a superficial phenomenon. I suspect that there is something wrong with the cells in your arm, but further examination is needed."

Taiyi smiled and shook his head, saying that there was no need to worry too much. Taiyi knew what caused the injury on his arm.

Wind Style·Rasengan!

Although the prototype of the Wind Style Spiral Shuriken is not as damaging as the Wind Style Spiral Shuriken to the user, but still, Taichi's physique is too weak.

When fighting Ai's Lateral Bolt of Pain: Chop, not only did the burst of Chakra cause damage to Taiyi's right hand, but when maintaining the Wind Style Rasengan, the Wind Style Chakra flowing at high speed in the meridians was like a sharp knife. It kept hurting the meridians of Taiyi's hands.

The combination of the two resulted in Taiyi's current serious injury to his right hand.

Even Naruto couldn't bear the negative impact of Wind Style Spiral Shuriken. Tsunade directly listed this technique as a Forbidden Technique. How could Taichi withstand it?

So why not use Nine Tails' Chakra claws as a medium?

Because of his lack of proficiency, Taichi is now like Naruto who needs the assistance of Shadow Clone to cast Wind Style Spiral Shuriken.

The advantage over Naruto is that Taichi only needs a Shadow Clone to inject Wind Style Chakra.

When casting Wind Style·Rasengan, Taichi casts Rasengan and is maintained by Nine Tails. Taichi then injects Wind Style Chakra. Taichi alone cannot do it.

And the most important point is that due to the insufficient Nine Tails Chakra, the rapid use of Chakra caused the semi-golden body mode to fail to protect Taiyi's arm. This was the main reason for Taiyi's injury.

Although he didn't figure out what happened to Taiyi, Quanta didn't intend to get to the bottom of it, but just repeatedly asked Taiyi to cooperate with the treatment.

Taiyi couldn't resist, so he had to cooperate with the examination and treatment. In the end, his right hand was wrapped into a white bear's paw.

"Do you want to be so exaggerated?"

Taiyi held up the "white bear paw" speechlessly.

Hyuga Yuko raised her small fist, a dangerous light flashing in her eyes.

Taidu immediately shrank his head and showed a flattering smile.

"Okay! Good job! Sister Yuzi is kind-hearted and has superb medical skills..."

Taichi started to give a rainbow fart and didn't stop until Yuuko put her hand down. Taichi was really afraid of Yuuko's explosive force, which could smash the iron door out of the hole. So I asked you if you are afraid. Taichi was afraid that his hand injury was not healed yet. Another concussion.

Yuko packed up the medical supplies and said to Taichi:

"Next, just rest here and deal with it yourself if you have any problems. You are almost more familiar with the hospital than I am."

Taiyi showed a silly smile: "Sister Yuko, you are really good at joking. How can I be as familiar as you, the vice-president, no matter how familiar I am?"

Yuko snorted coldly: "Huh! I've been away from the hospital for so long, and you didn't even say you would come back to see me."

Taiyi quickly coaxed: "Isn't this just to do more tasks? I want to earn more bounties, and then treat you and Fujimi sister to dinner~"

"You still have some conscience."

Seeing that Yuko was no longer angry, Taichi asked about Shikato's situation.

"Sister Yuko, how is the situation with the Hyuga deer man? He is that kid from the Hyuga clan. He is my friend."

After hearing Taichi's words, Yuko's expression became serious.

Taiyi felt anxious and asked hurriedly: "Is there any problem?"

Yuko said: "It's not a big problem. It's just that the arm was injured too seriously. Although you gave him simple treatment, it took too long. Even if it's cured, I'm afraid he won't be able to recover as before."

Taiyi suddenly stood up from the bed and was about to walk out.

Yuko hurriedly pushed Taiyi back to the hospital bed.

"What are you going to do?! Even if you go, it won't make any difference. What's more, you can't help in your current situation. Besides, do you think your medical skills are comparable to Dean Fujimi? Don't make things worse. !”

Taiyi's head was buzzing. Although he had not been with Luren for a long time, the way for men to establish friendship was very simple. They shared the same school, carried guns, visited prostitutes, and shared stolen goods.

Although they had never gone to prostitutes together or shared the stolen goods, Taiyi and Deeren were classmates, and they had experienced life and death together, which satisfied both of them. Taiyi had already regarded Deeren as a friend.

Now Taiyi felt that he was sorry for the deer man. If he had not wanted to perform the mission, the deer man would not have been injured, or if he had honestly chosen the two missions in the Land of Fire, this situation would not have happened.

Therefore, Taiyi feels very guilty now.

Yuko noticed Taiyi's strangeness, reached out and stroked the top of Taiyi's head, and comforted softly:

"Although the deer man's situation is not optimistic, Taichi, you have to believe me and Dean Fujimi. We will do our best to restore the deer man to his original state."

Tai nodded, all he could do now was believe.

"You can rest here first. I'm going to see if there is anything I can help you with. Deer Man is your friend, and he is also my friend. I will do my best."

"Thank you, Sister Yuko!"

Yuko left the ward, and Taiyi lay on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling with empty eyes, and began to think wildly. I don't know how long it took, but a tide of fatigue came over, and Taiyi fell into a deep sleep.

…

On the other side, Kakashi, who was not seriously injured, wanted to see Taichi's condition after some simple treatment.

When he came outside the ward, he found that Taiyi had fallen asleep. Kakashi did not disturb Taiyi and left quietly.

Kakashi was about to leave the hospital and report on the mission when he found that many people from the Hyuga clan had come to the hospital, including the current patriarch of the Hyuga clan and the elders of the Hyuga clan.

"It seems that the deer people's situation is not that optimistic."

Kakashi muttered.

Kakashi's mood became depressed, and a sense of powerlessness filled his body.

If I were strong enough, Deerman would not be so seriously injured, and if I was strong enough, Taiyi would not risk his life to save me.

Kakashi's fists were clenched tightly, his knuckles turning white from the exertion.

Kakashi has never wanted to become stronger like this.

"Genius? What kind of genius am I?"

Emotions of powerlessness, guilt, self-blame, and self-deprecation filled Kakashi's heart.

At this time, a voice sounded.

"Hatake Kakashi, Lord Hokage wants to see you."

Kakashi turned around, and an Anbu wearing an animal mask appeared in front of Kakashi.

Kakashi slowly unclenched his clenched fists and nodded at the same time.

Anbu turned around and left. Kakashi glanced at the Hyuga tribe members surrounding the ward, then turned around and followed Anbu away.

Hokage office.

The Third Hokage first expressed his concern for the three Kakashi people with a concerned look on his face.

"Kakashi, this mission is really difficult for you. How are the conditions of Luren and Taichi?"

Kakashi replied respectfully: "Taiyi and I both have minor injuries, but... Deer Man's condition is very serious."

Third Generation put down his pipe and said seriously: "I am aware of Deer Man's situation. I have informed Dean Fujimi and will do my best to treat Deer Man. You are all the future of Konoha, and I will not allow anyone to take him under his wing." to damage!”

"Thank you, Hokage-sama!"

With the words of Third Generation, Deer Man will surely receive full treatment. Kakashi bowed to Third Generation excitedly.

"Kakashi, I heard that you were seriously injured after encountering Jōnin on this mission. What exactly happened?"

coming! Kakashi looked normal and told Third Generation what happened as planned by the three.

He also informed the Third Generation of the information about the Evil God Cult that Taiyi had informed in advance.

As long as the information about the evil cult is revealed, the Third Generation's attention will be greatly diverted.

Indeed, Third Generation's attention was indeed attracted by the so-called spring water that can slow down aging.

After receiving this special information, Third Generation stopped paying attention to Kakashi's affairs and directly waved Kakashi away.

"You go back to recuperate first. If you provide information about the Evil God Cult, I will find someone to verify it. Once confirmed, it will be calculated as an A-level mission."

"Thank you, Hokage-sama! I'll take my leave now."

After Kakashi left, Third Generation gave a light drink.

"Somebody come!"

"Swish, swish"

Two Anbu appeared in front of Third Generation.

"Go and investigate what Kakashi just said, and don't tell anyone about today's events!"

"yes!"
