Kakashi's main body was carried to the hospital by Hinata in this way, and even if his stomach hurt very much on the way, he would look at the child in the shadow clone's arms who had been transformed into chakra and scattered and returned to his original state from time to time.

Stomach aches and the like weren't too serious, and the ninjas at the hospital quickly cured Kakashi with medical ninjutsu.

"Hokage-sama......"

The medical ninja wiped a handful of sweat after treating Kakashi, and told him to recuperate before going to report something to Hizashi.

After chatting with this man for a while, Hinata turned his head to look at Naruto, and after pondering for a moment, he asked Kakashi if he wanted to help cure Naruto.

“……！ Is Naruto injured? ”

Kakashi tried to stand up, but was pushed back to his seat by the shadow clone, who was now a little stronger than his main body, while holding the child in his arms.

"No, Naruto isn't hurt at all, it's just that he's still too young, and if he lets it go, he's probably going to be in this state for a long time...... We're not sure if he'll wake up again before he recovers... It becomes like that, but if you can ...... If you sacrifice to take care of him, it will be fine, but it seems that it will be easy to get hurt, you can come here for treatment at any time in the future, if you don't want too many people to know, you can also let this person help you treat it later. ”

Hizashi pointed to the medical ninja beside him, "If you have a stomachache or a cold, you can do it, don't worry about superfluous things." ”

"Uh...... Thank you for your kindness. ”

Kakashi lowered his head in some embarrassment.

Hizashi really hadn't seen a child of this breed, and he couldn't help but worry about Kakashi's future.

"You should also try not to let Naruto go out alone after that, if you are not feeling well, you can not use it, just report to me briefly before you start work later."

When he received Kakashi's 'violence' in the mission, he thought it was the Nine-Tails who had gone berserk...... Fortunately, this is not the case, although it is not very good to get out.

Fortunately, Naruto at that time still looked like Kakashi, and his identity was not revealed, and when Hinata arrived, although Naruto's mask had been removed by himself due to the force, he was buried sideways on the back of his half-dead temporary teammate in a face-down state, but he was not seen by anyone else.

But that was more like 'Kakashi' hitting the man's stick to make him unable to get up again.

——“…… But even so, you can't get used to him too much, take care of it, or if something happens again...... Alas. ”

Hisashi stroked his beard and waved at the medical ninja to step back and go about his business, leaving only Hizagi, Naruto, and Kakashi's main body and shadow clones in the small medical room.

“…… Yes, I'm sorry. ”

Kakashi's head hung even lower.

He didn't really want to interfere with Naruto's actions, and he felt that he would be annoyed if he had too much to do...... It wouldn't be good if the current Naruto became the one he knew at the beginning.

He didn't dare to assure Hinata that he could manage Naruto because he really didn't have much confidence.

Hinata chatted with Kakashi again, saying something he thought was chicken soup, and then took out Shuo Mao and briefly mentioned it - probably thinking that he would be qualified to 'preach' Kakashi from the perspective of an elder.

Kakashi kept his head down and didn't know if he was listening, but Hinashi patted Kakashi on the shoulder and left the place.

"Healing?"

The shadow clone gently brushed the dead child in his arms and asked about the body.

“…… That's it, he probably can't remember anything when he wakes up. ”

Kakashi touched Naruto's hair, feeling a little complicated.

- "I hope he wakes up at home when he regains consciousness, so that he doesn't feel out of tune, and then he says he's overslept, if asked...... I'm going to make him think it's his dream. ”

Kakashi lifts his forehead.

"Hmm...... What about that person's side? Are you going to apologize now or tomorrow? Or will I go instead of you? ”

Kakashi's shadow clone looked at the watch hanging on the wall, also a little confused.

“…… I heard he seemed to be awake, but I don't think he wants to see me right now. ”

Kakashi's stomach was fine, but his head was starting to hurt.

The temporary teammate seemed to have woken up in the middle - it was already like that, if he didn't wake up again, he would probably really die there, but his consciousness was still a little blurry and he didn't succeed in fighting back, so Naruto didn't do anything other than that he was still sleeping now, and the blood-stained clothes were also changed by the shadow clone after returning home before, but it still smelled of rust on his body.

"Well, but if I apologize, the sooner the better, you're just here looking at Naruto, I-"

"Don't go?"

Kakashi quickly grabbed the shadow clone's arm as Naruto was stuffed into his arms, pulling him very tightly.

- "Or... Let's go later, he needs to rest now. ”

Kakashi shook his head with a wry smile and looked at Naruto and sighed.

"Okay, since you're fine, I'll go back too, and I'm going to eat well when I get home, I haven't eaten much for a day, right?"

The shadow clone didn't pull back the wrist he had been caught, and after smiling at him, he turned into smoke and became part of Kakashi's own memory.

The memories of the naughty ones that had been brought back made Kakashi feel healed a lot, and after digesting the memories that had been returned, he looked back at the innocent child sleeping in his arms.

{…… Alas. }

Kakashi stood up silently with the child in his arms and left the medical room.

He was not in the mood to cook now, and even the simplest porridge was troublesome, so he bought a random food he could eat on the way home, and then when he passed by another store, he was affected by the sound of the nine-tails that suddenly appeared in his mind, and bought two more servings.

Then the Nine Lamas closed their mouths in satisfaction, and it wasn't until Kakashi returned home that he popped out of Naruto.

“…… You know that, right? ”

Kakashi placed the lunch box on the small table.

The Nine Lamas immediately threw out his paws and flapped the lid of the lunch box, burying his face in the two lunches that were more sumptuous than Kakashi's.

"What do you mean?"

The Nine Lamas can speak without their mouths, so even what they say while eating sounds very clear.

"If it were you, I would be able to stop Naruto......"

Kakashi was holding the lunch box that had just been opened, and he had mixed feelings.

He felt as if he couldn't eat—not even the lavish dinner of the Nine-Tails whetted his appetite.

Kakashi silently closed the lid of the lunch box again.

"Why should I stop him?"

The Nine Lamas raised his head from the lunch box and raised his eyebrows, but the grains of rice hanging on the side of his beard made him look a little funny and not serious.

“……”

Kakashi couldn't answer.

"But if it weren't for me, he would have changed back to his original form when he was first drunk, and I'd already used the chakra to help him maintain his transformation - so that person wasn't seeing Naruto, because I don't think you would want that."

The Nine Lamas shrugged his shoulders and continued to flick his tail and bury his face in the food in the lunch box.

- "But if Naruto changes back, maybe he won't be able to do anything to that person." ”

Kakashi didn't know what the reason was, anyway, he was very depressed and a little angry right now.

"Well, yes, it won't hurt Naruto if he changes back, but that person will definitely be annoyed by him, if you think that's okay, then when I choose the wrong one, anyway, everything that should have happened happened, and this little kid of yours has also abused people, even if you have a way to erase that person's memory, can you erase the memory of the person who found them, the memory of the little imp who slashed the day?"

The Nine Lamas disdainfully ate the meal Kakashi had bought while replying to Kakashi's words.

- For him, the day slash can indeed be said to be a little ghost.

Because he hasn't died since Mito's generation, although even if he dies and is reborn, he will still have his previous memories and consciousness, so no matter what, Hizashi will always be the same stinky imp as Naruto's little kid.

- "Or do you want to beg me to help Naruto?" Let me properly control him not to do things you didn't expect in places you couldn't see? Whether it's hurting someone or what? ”

Although the Nine Lamas looked like foxes, they ate like dogs, and quickly finished their two boxed lunches, and lay on the mat with their tails flicked, and looked at Kakashi with their eyebrows raised a little higher.

“……”

Kakasimer.
