Ninja World

Chapter 82 Conversation

"come in."

A somewhat deep voice came from inside the house.

Uchiha Tatsumi and Kakashi's expressions couldn't help but stiffen slightly.

It was indeed a bit embarrassing to see the old man Hokage in this situation. Both of them had some interactions with Hokage before, but now they have become prisoners in custody.

Compared to Uchiha Tatsu, Kakashi's face was darker.

The death of his father was probably due to the Third Hokage's negligence. When Hatake Sakumo was attacked, he did not provide enough protection to his most capable subordinate.

Kakashi has some resentment.

But he was smart enough not to show it, and just gritted his teeth silently.

Namikaze Minato didn't care about the thoughts of the two teenagers behind him, opened the door and led them in.

"Sandaime."

Give him a small gift.

There is also an office belonging to the Hokage in the ANBU.

This matter needs to be handled strictly, and people from the Uchiha family and the Hatake family have brought clear information to the Hokage's desk through various channels.

Both of them are valued by their respective families.

What's more, because of Hatake Sakumo, ANBU also paid special attention to matters with Kakashi.

The Hokage sits at the highest peak of power, but he is also the central point where the powers of all parties converge. It is not enough to be tough, but it is also necessary to properly handle the disputes between the interests of all parties.

Ensure the unity of the village.

It's not difficult to say, but it's easy to say...

Namikaze Minato gave a slight bow and then stepped aside.

The middle-aged man sitting in the middle has gray temples and white hair, like a ruthless invader spreading wantonly and swallowing up the years.

There are wrinkles on my forehead.

There are several notes handed in from various channels on the table, and they are all placed here now.

There is also a letter signed with a purple seal.

A snake with fangs spread.

He smoked his pipe lightly.

Then some hazy eyes fell on the two teenagers.

...

Uchiha Tatsu is back.

No more people know about this matter because the strictest silence order has been issued and the lessons learned from the last time have been fully learned.

Similarly...no more people know what the Hokage and the two people talked about.

The sun sets in the west.

The streets of Konoha are full of people.

There are stalls that are busy preparing for the night market, and there are also closed shops. After a busy day of work, the remaining time for people is their own time to relax.

Threes and threes, shoulders and backs.

Several girls from the ninja school were walking together, talking and laughing.

The ninjas also took off their forehead protectors and wiped the sweat from their foreheads. Although it was late autumn, they still felt a little stuffy after wearing forehead protectors for a long time.

Quiet and peaceful.

"Father protected the village and completed so many dangerous tasks..."

Kakashi thought of the major and minor injuries on his father's body.

The tone is low.

"But why did people in the village attack him and let him die?"

Uchiha Tatsumi and Kakashi were walking on the street, but they seemed a little out of place with the lively crowd.

not friend.

Let alone enemies.

They are not enthusiastic and proactive characters, and they really have no friendship at all. They only said their first words yesterday.

But after such a... big episode, it can be regarded as a friendship in adversity. It would be too much for the two of them to pretend to be indifferent to each other.

Uchiha Tatsu was silent for a long time.

"I have no idea."

Then he shook his head.

He asked several people and gave mostly the same answers.

'Ninjas should put their mission first.'

"Is it because ninjas who don't know how to abide by the rules are useless?"

"No."

"Rules are made by people, and those who don't know how to break the rules are trash."

Uchiha Tatsu said calmly.

Um?

Kakashi, who was feeling a little depressed, was startled.

This was the first time he heard such...rebellious truth.

But the rules are made by people...

People who don’t know how to break the rules…

It seems to make some sense.

Lost in thought.

There was an endless stream of people coming and going on the street, and Uchiha Chen was also thinking about something in his mind.

The two of them were silent again, each with their own thoughts.

He was imprisoned all night and was released this afternoon. Now he is standing on a noisy street, with voices on both sides making endless noises.

Uchiha Tatsu suddenly felt surrounded by an inexplicable loneliness.

turn out to be...

I don't have any friends in Konoha Village yet.

Deep down in his heart, Uchiha Tatsumi had already removed Haru from the ranks of friends.

Don't know where it is placed.

Maybe I am always wary when I come to a strange place.

Compared to Konan, Yahiko, and Nagato, it was because of hunger and hardship.

Four destitute little ghosts were wandering in the Land of Rain, still worrying about what to eat the next day, and whether they would not be able to see the raindrops tomorrow.

Naturally, there is no time to be distracted and think about other things.

But when we arrived in Konoha.

The environment has changed again.

If you lose the consideration of food and clothing, you will think about other things.

Is it because my subconscious is guarding against and rejecting others?

"Hey, Chen."

Kakashi, who was walking next to him, suddenly spoke again.

The fork in the road not far ahead should turn, and his house is in the other direction.

The Uchiha clan doesn't go that way.

Uchiha Tatsu put back his random thoughts and glanced at the silver-haired boy beside him.

Kakashi is two years younger than him and shorter in height.

"What's wrong?"

"Although you took advantage of me this time..."

Kakashi didn't pay attention to Uchiha Tatsu's casual attitude.

His expression returned to his previous somewhat cold and unsmiling attitude.

The color faded, and a pair of half-opened eyes looked at Uchiha Tatsumi and then stopped.

"But I should still thank you."

Uchiha Chen was startled for a moment, and his steps stopped in place.

His eyes fell on Kakashi.

"This is the second time I've said it."

"But it's also the last..."

For the first time, Uchiha Tatsu took a serious look at this indifferent young man, and it turned out that his heart was not completely wrapped up in revenge.

Then he also showed a little appreciative smile.

"That's because you are too stupid."

Continuing from Kakashi’s taunting of Uchiha Tatsu this morning.

Kakashi's face darkened slightly, he reached out and pulled the mask on his cheek, and then left without looking back.

Uchiha Tatsumi smiled and stood there for a long time without moving.

I was thinking about what to eat for today’s meal.

Why don't you buy some dishes from a restaurant outside and take them home later?

First, I am unbearably hungry and haven’t eaten since last night.

The second is to compensate for the fright Uchiha Haru received yesterday.

He knew that the girl must be waiting at home at this moment.

Wait for him to come back.

Thinking of this makes my heart warm.
