Chapter 145: History Repeats Itself?
Just when Kakashi was helpless about Sakura's words, a voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Hey, Kakashi, why are you in a place like this, so I haven't found you for a long time."
Sasuke said as he pushed open the door and stepped in.
"Hurry up and take me to fix the ......" Sasuke's voice stopped as he looked at the two people in the room in surprise.
"Kakashi, why are you in bed? Also, Sakura-chan, why are you here? β
Sakura spread her hands and tilted her head in expression, "Please, isn't it obvious that Kakashi-sensei is injured as you can see, and I happen to be taking care of him." β
"Accepted...... Injured? Sasuke was stunned and asked, "Who did it?" β
"I didn't ...... It's nothing, it's just that I accidentally got hurt in the fight with others. Without waiting for Sakura to speak, Kakashi replied first, and at the same time desperately signaled to Sakura with his eyes, he was really afraid that Sakura would tell Sasuke the truth of the matter, and with Sakura's unscrupulous personality, it was normal for him to do such a thing.
As for Kakashi's actions, Sakura just pouted and didn't say anything, because she knew that even if she didn't say it, the person who came over immediately would shake out the truth.
"Do you want to be hospitalized?" Sasuke thought to himself with suspicion, but the thought was immediately put behind him.
"Kakashi, how's your injury? When will it be good, I can't wait to cultivate. β
Kakashi smiled bitterly, "Well, although the injury is not very serious, it will take about a week to be discharged from the hospital. β
Sasuke was silent for a moment, he was a little disappointed, but he couldn't help it, and said, "A week?" I see, then you have a good rest, I'm leaving. β
Sasuke was standing at the door of the ward, and when he finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but he had just turned halfway through it, and before he could look over, he felt a shock hit him.
A man in a Konoha uniform hurriedly ran over, and because of the angle, he didn't see Sasuke who was about to go out, and knocked him to the ground at once.
"Hey, what the hell are you doing, don't you know how to read the road?" Sasuke got up from the ground, one hand over his head, and looked annoyed at the man who had knocked him to the ground.
"I'm really sorry, but I'm too anxious." The person who knocked Sasuke down was Aoba Yamashiro, one of the shinobi in Konoha, because he was in a very urgent mood, he didn't say anything, just glanced at Sasuke apologetically, and then turned around and looked at Kakashi with a very flustered expression.
"Aoba, don't." Kakashi looked at Aoba Yamashiro with a panicked face, his heart tightened, he had already guessed what he was going to say, and quickly spoke out to stop it, but it was too late.
I only heard Yamashiro Aoba's voice say urgently: "Kakashi, I heard Red and Asma say that the traitorous ninja Uchiha Itachi who betrayed Konoha has reappeared in the village, and he is still here with the rebel ninja from other villages, and I heard them say that Uchiha Itachi seems to be coming for Naruto, is this true?" β
"It's over." Kakashi, who couldn't stop him, slapped his head and thought helplessly in his heart with his eyes closed. Originally, seeing that Sasuke was about to leave, he thought that this matter would end like this, but he didn't expect that although Sakura, who was worried about him, had no problems, the truth of the matter was finally revealed.
"What do you say? Uchiha Itachi returned to Konoha? Sasuke, who was standing behind Yamashiro Aoba, opened his eyes wide, he looked at Kakashi, and his voice unconsciously increased, "Kakashi, is what this person said true?" β
"Of course it's not true, Uchiha Itachi is a traitor wanted by Konoha ah, how can he dare to come back, I think Aoba he just doesn't know where he heard some fake news." Although his head was about to be blown up by Yamashiro Aoba, a pig teammate, Kakashi barely pulled himself together and explained to Sasuke with an embarrassed smile in order not to make things more difficult to clean up.
"Aoba, don't believe these rumors in the future." After Kakashi finished speaking, he scolded Yamashiro Aoba in a serious manner, and at the same time gave him a look.
"Right...... I'm sorry, it's my fault, I shouldn't have bothered Kakashi with this kind of gossip. Yamashiro Aoba scratched his head and said embarrassedly, although he hadn't figured out the situation yet, but he also knew from Kakashi's eyes that he seemed to have said something wrong.
"By the way, Kakashi, I suddenly remembered that the elder seems to have something looking for me, I'll leave first, and I'll come to see you next time." In order to avoid creating more trouble if he stayed unclear about the situation, Yamashiro Aoba patted his head, pretending to be suddenly enlightened, and then without waiting for everyone to speak, he immediately formed a seal and disappeared into a puff of smoke.
"Aoba, this guy, it's really, making a fuss all day long, hehehe." Kakashi looked at the place where Yamashiro Aoba had disappeared, and his face was full of embarrassed smiles.
But it's a pity that Kakashi's hasty explanation is too pale, and coupled with his extremely embarrassing acting skills with Yamashiro Aoba, it can't fool Sasuke, who was suspicious of Kakashi's hospitalization.
Sasuke looked at Kakashi indifferently, "Kakashi, what you said before, why was you hospitalized because you were accidentally injured while talking to your companions, they were all lying to me, right?" β
"You said it would take a week for your injuries to heal, but with such a serious injury, I can't see any wounds or bandages on your body at all."
"In other words, your injuries are from illusion."
Although he didn't know the plot like Sakura, with his keen insight, Sasuke also discovered the source of Kakashi's injury.
"But don't forget, you're just like me as the Uchiha, you have a chakra." Sasuke said, pointing a finger to his eyes, and three black magatama appeared in his blood-red pupils.
"No one knows better than me how resistant the Sharingan is to illusions."
"Then Kakashi, now please tell me, when did Konoha actually have a ninja who could seriously injure you with illusions?"
"I ...... This ......" In the face of Sasuke's questioning, Kakashi was short of words for a while, but he couldn't say a complete sentence.
"So, your injuries weren't something to get from at all, and the person who seriously injured you was that guy Uchiha Itachi." Sasuke said angrily, combined with Yamashiro Aoba's words before, he had already guessed the truth of the matter.
"You're right, the person who beat Kakashi-sensei to the hospital is indeed your own brother Uchiha Itachi." Sakura, who had been watching coldly from the beginning, said lightly.
Kakashi hurriedly said, "Sakura-chan, you ......"
Sakura glanced at him, shook her head, and said, "Kakashi-sensei, it's all now, you won't be naΓ―ve enough to think that you can hide it from Sasuke." β
"Instead of making up those clumsy excuses, let's be honest."
"Ugh." Knowing that Sakura-chan was doing the right thing, Kakashi let out a long sigh and lowered his head to say no more.
"Sure enough, it's really him back, bastard!" Shocked and angry at Sakura's final confirmation, Sasuke stopped talking and turned his head and rushed straight out.
"Crotch!"
But Sasuke's move was unsuccessful, he had just rushed to the door, and before he could get out, a white light flashed in front of him, forcing him to stop his movements.
A drop of cold sweat dripped from Sasuke's forehead, and his eyes widened as he looked ahead of him, where a fruit knife was firmly nailed to the door frame, the blade of which was not even an inch away from his nose.
"Stop."
