Shinobi: I'm Really a Supportive Ninja

The journey back to the village was uneventful and we encountered no unexpected situations.

This has to be said to be a pity. Hatake Akira still imagined that someone would suddenly jump out and give him some gold coins and experience.

Nearly a week later, Class 8 entered the gate of Konoha under the leadership of Namikaze Minato.

After leading Hatake Akira and the others back to the village, Namikaze Minato left them behind and went to Sarutobi Hiruzen to hand over the mission, and the eighth squad was naturally disbanded.

Being a team teacher is actually not easy at all, especially when the team returns from a mission outside the village, which is the busiest day for the team teacher.

Originally, when he was fighting alone, Namikaze Minato only had to write one mission report, but now that he was leading Team 8, he had to write four.

The level of detail in the mission report belonging to Hatake Akira and the other three was outrageous.

Namikaze Minato needs to write down in the report the combat performance, psychological performance, execution ability, loyalty, etc. of the three people when performing tasks.

Tasks outside the village are never simple tasks, and some tests mixed in the tasks are also considered top priority.

For ninjas with powerful weapons, the only thing the village cares about is their sense of belonging to the village, and this cannot be careless.

Otherwise, raising a white-eyed wolf will definitely be a big loss to the village.

This is one of the main reasons why rebel ninjas in every village must be arrested or assassinated by ANBU members.

Using iron-blooded methods to get rid of the rebellious ninja will not only serve as a warning to the monkeys, but also prevent some secrets in the village from being leaked.

However, these have nothing to do with Hatake Akira now. He is now enjoying the good time that he finally had to relax.

…

On the grass opposite Konoha Hokage Rock.

This is Hatake Akira’s feng shui treasure, not just in the literal sense.

Akira Hatake hoped that he could be buried here when he died of old age in the future, instead of being buried in the Memorial Monument Cemetery in Konoha Village.

"Hey, I'll give you these two things."

Akira Hatake brought Kakashi to his Feng Shui treasure this time, and handed him two spell books that he had prepared long ago.

"This is……"

The moment Kakashi took it, he noticed some changes in his body, and there was a hint of surprise in the dead fish's eyes.

"This thing is good for you. Don't ask if you have more. I won't tell you if you ask."

Akira Hatake blocked Kakashi's questioning in advance. Not only would it be troublesome to explain his own secret, but others might not believe him if he told him.

It is better to do less than to do more. Taking other people's path in advance is worse than anything else.

"Oh." Kakashi didn't react much. From the time he could remember until now, he had been accustomed to Hatake Akira often hiding things from him.

"You're very good. When my brother gets rich, he will definitely have a mouthful of soup to drink!"

Akira Hatake was very satisfied with Kakashi's attitude and couldn't help but stretched out his hand to ruffle his hair.

"Brother!" Kakashi dodged, but still didn't completely escape the clutches, "Why do you always like to rub my head!"

"Are you happy if I rub other people's hair?" Hatake Akira said unforgivingly, "I think highly of you, so don't be ignorant of good and bad!"

"What... you know how to use your brother's status to oppress me every day."

"What? After improving your strength, you lost strength?" Akira Hatake glanced sideways at Kakashi, "Today's life energy has been halved!"

"elder brother……"

Kakashi felt aggrieved. They had bickered like this before, but now, why was he increasingly at a disadvantage?

"Uh..." Hatake Akira shivered, "Don't call me brother like that, I always feel like you are my sister!"

Kakashi's long voice, which sounded aggrieved and coquettish, gave Akira Hatake goosebumps. He felt that he had raised Kakashi crooked in the end.

In Hatake Akira's impression, Kadian has always been a cold and mysterious male god. Why is it that when he gets along with him now, he unknowingly has a different flavor?

"Okay brother, it's time for us to go home and train." Kakashi said with a hint of eagerness.

"You go by yourself, I'll rest for a while." Hatake Akira shook his head, then lay down on the grass and refused to get up.

But after a while, Hatake Akira realized that Kakashi had not left yet, "Why don't you leave?"

"After I leave, will my brother go find Yuhi Hong?"

"Huh? Huh?" Hatake Akira's movements were a little panicked. He got up from the ground and looked at Kakashi with a very strange look. "Whether I go to see Kurenai or not doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right?"

"It doesn't matter, but don't you think it's been a long time since you cooked saury for me?"

"This...I...forget it!"

Hatake Akira sighed, stood up and patted the dirt on his butt, "Let's go home! I'll make saury for you!"

"good!"

Kakashi's eyebrows curved into crescent moons, and the corners of his mouth hidden under the mask kept rising.

"Before my brother grew up, I was still the most important person to him..."

With this thought in his mind, Kakashi followed Akira Hatake with very brisk steps. He looked like a younger brother, but looking at their backs from a distance, he felt very warm and beautiful.

…

Konoha Building, Hokage's Office.

"That's it, Hokage-sama."

Namikaze Minato stood aside respectfully, while Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting opposite him, kept reading the mission report submitted by Namikaze Minato.

Inhale~exhale…

After taking a puff of cigarette, Sarutobi Hiruzen spit it out again, and then leaned on the back of the chair.

"The mission was accomplished very well, and the growth rate of Akira Hatake and Kakashi Hatake is also very gratifying."

"Even Metkai, who I am least optimistic about, performed well in this mission. In time, Class 8 will become Konoha's star class!"

How could Namikaze Minato not hear the pun in Sarutobi Hiruzen's words?

"The future Class 7 should be no worse than the Class 8 I led." Namikaze Minato considered his words, "I remember Asuma will graduate next year. If possible, let Jiraiya-sensei teach him again." One graduating class will do, too.”

"I have thought about it, but Jiraiya..." Hiruzen Sarutobi took two more puffs of his cigarette, "Forget it, let's not talk about him anymore, let's continue talking about this mission."

Saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen placed a receipt from the Kusanagi Village on his desk, "Minato, although you successfully completed the mission, the results of the mission are somewhat unsatisfactory."

"This receipt clearly states that the 15-person ninja squadron deployed by Kusanagi Village for this mission was completely wiped out, and only one of the mission targets survived."

"This is a responsibility that I cannot shirk." Minato Namikaze lowered his head, "The intensity of this mission is no less than an S-level mission. If Akira and Kakashi hadn't been able to pass the test, it's very likely..."

"I don't mean to blame you." Sarutobi Hiruzen took out another document and said, "Sign it. In view of some flaws in this mission, it can only be upgraded to an A-level mission. S-level is It’s impossible.”

"By the way, the corresponding mission commissions have also been increased. I will make an exception and let all members of Class 8 receive commissions equivalent to S-level missions. This can be regarded as compensation for you."

"On behalf of my three students, thank you, Lord Sandaime Hokage!"

"Okay, let's get down." Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand.

After Namikaze Minato left, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression turned completely gloomy, "Danzo, you went a little too far this time... That's the Kusanagi Village, our ally of Konoha!"

Standing up from the chair, Sarutobi Hiruzen came to the window and watched Minato Namikaze walk out of the Hokage Building, and even saw Minato Namikaze greeting some people with a smile.

"Young, capable, and from a commoner background..." Hiruzen Sarutobi smacked his lips, "After observing for a while, if there are no major problems, you should be a good choice."
