As I expected. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Although my body doesn't have much strength now, and although I'm not a master of hidden weapons, at such a close distance, and completely defenseless, the shuriken has already pierced Kakashi's body before it even spins.

"Ahh ~~" It was only then that I suddenly came to my senses and screamed.

"Tuk Tuk!"

The scene freezes on Kakashi's staggering ground, and it seems to pause for a long time before I hear a voice.

Is this a stand-in?

Still, I was deceived.

It's Kakashi~

Even in such a trance, is it impossible to be successfully attacked?

Kakashi appeared from the other side, looking at me with a little angry disbelief.

I tilted my head, not daring to look at him.

"Hehe, Kakashi, are you still very alert~" Half explained, half to dispel the awkward atmosphere.

"Am I that untrustworthy?!" Kakashi was still angry.

"......" I was silent.

However, speaking of which, it seems to be true~ Kakashi thought about it himself, and couldn't find a reason why I should trust him completely.

"Okay, forget it~" Kakashi muttered a few words and continued to walk beside me, still unsuspecting, making me want to throw something again.

However, I finally suppressed this urge and forced myself to hurry without distractions.

No matter how Kakashi thinks, he feels that he is still very innocent: this woman is crazy, crazy!

What kind of reason and purpose did she do just now?

If I had been here, I would have been able to understand what I was doing, although I didn't quite understand it myself. But it's a pity that Jiraiya isn't here, and even if he is here, he may not give Kakashi a point or two, probably, he will only watch the excitement from the side, so poor Kakashi can only go depressed alone.

Yes, the reason, and the purpose ~ Kakashi suddenly grabbed something.

"Although, I also participated in the production of those two clones, but what kind of use it will be, you have never revealed. So, this mission is to find the clone, whether-"

Me: Kakashi didn't even think to ask this until now?

Kakashi: I didn't care about it before, but when Jiraiya-sama mentioned it, the whereabouts of these clones are also very suspicious!

"Hehe, okay, Kakashi, it's okay to tell you. Do you remember how my ninjutsu 'Fuji Dance' was first developed? ”

"Yes, I roughly know that it is because you have comprehended the true meaning of the wind with your clone, so you can inject the origin consciousness into the chakra to use such ninjutsu."

"That's right. Two doppelgangers were released, just because, I wanted to further develop the ninjutsu of the fire attribute. ”

Kakashi frowned and thought for a moment, "What? Isn't it? ”

"Yes. Place the doppelganger in the original fire altar of the craftsman's country, and use the chakra that makes up the doppelganger to experience the origin of fire. "That's my idea.

"But that's, it's impossible!" Don't say it's a clone, even if it's the main body, it won't last more than a moment in the original fire before it will be wiped out.

"So, I sent two clones. I instructed them to go to Kotokui's house first and seal one of the clones into the artifact, and then let the other clone carry the artifact to the Craftsman's Country, put it in the Primordial Fire Altar, and then keep a close watch nearby. If something goes wrong, the doppelganger used to monitor can also pass the message back in time. However, until now, there has been no information on that aspect, which is strange......"

"Ritual weapons? What other magic weapons? The Kotokui family's magic weapon has already been used to seal the three tails, and even if there are other magic weapons, their family master will not casually take them out and use them for an idea that may not be completed, right? ”

Kakashi, this is, look down on me!

That's right, my friendship with Haranosuke is indeed far from this, but if he just asked him to help me transform the semi-finished product, chime the raw materials and carve them into the magic circle, he would still be very happy~ After all, in these years, it is already very difficult to find materials that can make magic weapons, and it is rare to have the opportunity to do it himself and improve his understanding of the way of yin and yang, but he can't ask for it~

I asked the clone to bring an Arcane ingot, one Earth Essence, One Fire Essence, One Water Essence, One Air Essence, a few Elemental Earth, One Elemental Flame, One Elemental Water, and One Elemental Air, and a few Earth Core, Fire Heart, Pure Water Orb, and Wind Breath. With these materials, I believe that Haranosuke's abilities can make sealed containers that can be preserved in a variety of rampaging elemental environments.

In fact, Kotoku Ihara Nosuke did not live up to my expectations, and lived up to the name of the patriarch, one of the few remaining schools of onmyoji in the present era, to make such a magic weapon, and to seal one of my doppelgangers as the first test item.

It's just that what we didn't expect was that although the magic weapon successfully possessed sufficient strength and toughness and tolerance to the cruel environment, the clone was as fragile as ever! Even if he hid in the magic weapon and was double-sealed, he couldn't last enough time under the scorching of the original fire—enough time to explore the origin of the fire.

Therefore, the second doppelganger thought about it for a long time and hesitated for a long time, and just when one of the clones was about to dissipate, he finally made up his mind to pinch the magic trick and let the magic weapon accept him.

There are two reasons why this is so bold. First, Haranosuke made hands and feet on the magic weapon, attached an invisible formation, which was easily invisible to others, and retained a wisp of spiritual consciousness in the magic weapon, as long as someone touched it, he would feel it; Second, when the doppelganger came to the country of craftsmen, the magic weapon was put into the altar of fire, and everything went smoothly as planned, and if the main body was found, there was no need to worry about getting the wrong target.

Even though I didn't know any of this yet, I was confident in the intelligence and resilience of the doppelganger (or rather myself), so I didn't care about Kakashi's doubts.

"Anyway, I have a point."

A simple sentence made Kakashi cut off the idea of asking any more.

Kakashi was going crazy.

Although, indeed, I owe a lot of favors to Yoyo, but it can't be like this...... It's a feeling of being completely ignored~

All the way, the woman was full of preoccupations, her eyes were unfocused, she floated around like sleepwalking, ignored my words, and launched a surprise attack. Well, if she's not crazy, then, pretty sure, next, it's me crazy!

No, I have to do something, or ......

Kakashi cheered up and began his conscientious escort work.

Well? It's weird, I looked at Kakashi who suddenly shook up a little dazedly.

Kakashi met my gaze and sent a warm smile.

Yes! There was a moment of confusion. Where have you ever seen this smile?

Suddenly, I remembered.

The middle ninja selection half a year ago.

In the arena, when I accidentally said something like this: "If you want to talk about what people live for, or how to live, I'm afraid you are the least qualified to talk about others, right?!" "In the face of my apologetic gaze, Kakashi gave me back such a smile~

So......

What kind of mood is Kakashi in now?

All of a sudden, I realized what I had done in the past two days, really, a little, beyond my expectations......

"Kakashi—"

"Huh?" It's still the same smile.

Although it looks so warm, it is sad!

"Kakashi, really, I'm sorry. I seem, a little wayward......"

Belch? Kakashi touched his nose and momentarily lost his mind.

I looked a little anxious. Really, I don't want this kind of estrangement between myself and Kakashi, and the friendship between my companions that I have built up with great difficulty.

If anything......

If it can be recognized......

Kakashi smiled again at my eager gaze, only, this time, he didn't completely close his eyes to hide himself, and there seemed to be a flash of light under his slightly closed eyelids.

"Ah, what are you talking about? What are you sorry for? I understand that this is probably a necessary procedure for resurrection from the dead, right? What is resurrection syndrome? I won't mind~"

Yes, how could I mind, how could I not forgive, no matter what, in fact, I would suffer willingly, right?

Although I received Kakashi's personal assurance, I still couldn't believe it in the face of such a person who was good at disguise, and kept staring into Kakashi's eyes, waiting for him to open it again.

Kakashi's smile froze a little, and he finally opened his eyes.

The man's eyebrows were raised and lowered, which looked a little ridiculous, but I didn't care about that at all, just looked at that eye, the only one that really belonged to me.

Inside, the load is full of ruthlessness.

Finally, I lowered my head.

Missed, a touch of sadness from the bottom of the eyes.
