He then said to Kakashi, "Orochimaru has been on the run for a while, but he left behind several research bases in Konoha."
"The Anbu discovered Orochimaru's research site yesterday. Go investigate and see if you find anything new."
"Yes!"
...
Outside the Konoha Ninja Academy.
Sasuke walked at the front with his hands in his pockets, followed by Sakura, and then Naruto and Hinata.
Naruto held his head in his hands and followed behind Sakura.
In this world, Naruto is much stronger, both physically and mentally, and he no longer has those feelings for Sakura; the two are just ordinary friends.
Hinata, who followed behind Naruto, was much closer to him.
"Sasuke, you're number one again, that's amazing."
Sakura praised Sasuke with a face full of admiration.
Sasuke has a particular aversion to this type of girl, who pesters him like a mosquito every day.
No matter which path he took, girls would always follow him. At first, it was a group of them, which made things quite chaotic.
Later, whether they planned it together or not, they took different paths and ended up with different girls.
Sasuke gave no cold response, then turned to see Naruto with his hands covering his head.
"Hey! Naruto, if you don't step up your game, you'll be at the bottom of the class."
Naruto lowered his hand: "Show-off Sasuke, this was purely an accident. I'll definitely do better than you next time."
Sasuke snorted arrogantly, "That's impossible, the Uchiha are the best."
"Naruto, stop bragging. You can't even compare to Choji, how could you possibly surpass Sasuke?"
Hinata stood behind Naruto and whispered, "I believe in Naruto. He'll definitely do well on the next test."
Naruto laughed heartily upon hearing this: "See, Sakura, there are still people who believe me."
He then gave Hinata a thumbs up, saying, "Hinata has the best taste."
Hinata's face turned noticeably red.
"Huh? Hinata, what's wrong? Your face is all red. Do you have a fever?"
Naruto casually approached Hinata and even reached out to touch her forehead.
Naruto is too close, what should I do, what should I do?
Hinata was so nervous that she was trembling all over and was about to faint.
"Foolish Naruto!"
Sakura grabbed Naruto and stood next to Hinata.
If Naruto were to actually touch Hinata, she'd probably faint. After all, this wouldn't be the first time.
"Hey, I'm not stupid!"
Naruto said with dissatisfaction.
The group quickly started making a ruckus.
"What youth!" Kawasaki thought to himself from the tree, when Kakashi walked into view.
"Hey, Naruto, you're here."
Kakashi was fully armed; it seemed he was going on a mission.
They really have to come over and say hello to make their presence known; they're really going all out.
"Kakashi-nii, are you going on a mission?"
Naruto waved happily. He didn't have many friends, and it was Kakashi who took the initiative to get to know him.
So he thought Kakashi was pretty good.
"Ah, something's come up, I'll have to go for a bit. I'll treat you to ramen another day."
After saying that, Kakashi hurriedly left.
"That person seems to be Kakashi."
Sakura said with a surprised look.
"Naruto, how do you know him?"
Sakura found it unbelievable.
"what?"
Naruto looked completely bewildered.
"You mean Kakashi-nii?"
Naruto said in confusion:
"We met at a ramen shop. We bumped into each other a few times and became familiar with each other. He even said he wanted to be friends with me."
Do you know what Kakashi means?
Sakura tugged at Naruto's clothes and swayed back and forth.
"No, I don't know."
Seeing Naruto's innocent expression.
Sakura said in the direction Kakashi left:
"That's Kakashi Hatake, a super genius. Kakashi-senpai graduated from the Ninja Academy when he was only five years old."
Huh?! Sasuke's gaze was immediately drawn to it.
They're only just starting school at this age, while others have already graduated.
"Hey?!"
Naruto was startled!
"Is Kakashi really that strong?!"
"He never mentioned it!"
Naruto also looked surprised.
Sakura rolled her eyes, too lazy to pay him any attention.
...
Kakashi continued on his way and soon arrived at a secluded spot in the Konoha Forest.
There is a hard-to-find hole here.
Chapter 44 My name is... Uchiha Kawasaki!
Kakashi looked around and then jumped down.
Soon after, another person wearing a cat-face mask and dark uniform jumped down. He was short and quite young.
A rumbling sound immediately followed from below.
Kawasaki walked to the cave entrance and stroked his chin.
The one who just went down, wasn't that Yamato? Oh, now his name is A.
Did Danzo send him to gouge out Kakashi's eyes?
I really don't know if Danzo was overconfident or just not smart enough.
Or is it superstition about Yamato's Wood Release?
Suddenly, Kawasaki sensed something was wrong and leaped up into the tree.
With a whoosh, the three members of the Roots arrived at the cave entrance.
Two of them went invisible, while the other jumped down.
So that's how it is. Danzo had a backup plan, with surveillance and substitutes, so that if A failed, someone else could take his place.
"The mission isn't everything. If the mission is to kill your comrades, then that mission is wrong."
"Kakashi, who caused the death of his comrade, has nothing to say when accused like this, but I... I never wanted to kill Rin!"
"I failed to protect my companions, that's why Rin died. I couldn't protect her with this Chidori, I couldn't protect her..."
"A, you should abandon the root's mission."
“The people of the Root seem to have been instilled with the idea of abandoning all emotions.”
"It's not just about emotions; it's about abandoning names, the past, and the future, living only to complete the mission."
"I am your enemy, so it is only reasonable for me to stand by and watch you die."
...
Kawasaki waited for a while, and the Root troops who were tracking Jia came out first and pretended to wait for him at the cave entrance.
Not long after, A jumped out.
A took out an eyeball that was soaking in a bottle, and the two exchanged a few words.
Kawasaki is very familiar with this plot; Kakashi has already taken care of the armor.
A forged a fake Sharingan and went back to report to Danzo.
Afterwards, Kakashi and the Third Hokage forcefully took back the armor and renamed it Tenzo.
After the Kazekage recapture battle, with "Yamato"
As his mission codename, everyone gradually got used to calling him Yamato.
"How dare you fake it!"
A loud shout snapped Kawasaki back to reality. How did he realize it was fake so quickly?
