7. The world still needs you [2-in-1 Chapter]

"You mean, Lord White Fang wants to see me?" Hinata looked at Kakashi in amazement.

"Hmm." Kakashi opened a pair of dead fish eyes and nodded at the little kid in front of him.

Every time I see him, I think of the bowl of ramen that day, and he was spicy out of his sausage lips, and he hid at home for two or three days before he could go out.

In his opinion, Hinata Yan is a troublesome little ghost, and he really doesn't know why his father wants to see him, and ...... Anyway, maybe he can make his father better.

Hinata Yan didn't think too much, followed behind Kakashi, and after a few turns, he came to the clan land of the Hagi family, saying that it was the clan land, but in fact, Monroe was a bird. There are not many people in the Qimu clan, and there are only about a dozen ninjas in total, and most of the clansmen are ordinary people.

An ordinary three-story building, with a small backyard, half of the Hokage's sleeves and the world-famous white tooth short knife were placed on the table, Kakashira opened the door, and Shuo Shigeru was sitting in the courtyard looking at the sky in a daze.

"Dad, I've brought someone here." Kakashi said as he approached, but he was also a little worried about Shuo Mao's state.

Konoha's rumors are not a secret, ever since he heard the villagers' accusations and blames for his father when he was shopping for vegetables, his father often sat in the yard in a daze.

Sakumo heard Kakashi's voice, a smile on his face, and nodded, then looked at Hinata Yan, who was following Kakashi.

"It's like that...... "Shuo Mao muttered.

"Lord White Fang." Hinata Yan said politely that in other people's homes, especially in front of elders, Hinata Yan is very polite.

"Sit down, Kakashi, too." Shuo Mao patted the open space next to him and asked the two to sit down.

It wasn't until Hinata and Kakashi sat down next to Sakumo that Sakumo spoke slowly.

"Yan, can I call you that?"

"Of course, Lord White Fang, you are my elder." Yan said with a smile.

Hinata Yan is not a ninja yet, and the relationship between the two is not superior-superior. What's more, since Shuo Mao asked so, it means that in his heart, it is Bar Yan who sees it as a junior.

"Actually, you can also call me uncle, my father and I are very close comrades-in-arms." Speaking of Hinata's biological father, whom he had never met, Shuo Mao's eyes were quite nostalgic.

However, Yan is a little unnatural, after all, he is a traverser, not the original owner of this body.

But this little action was not seen by Shuo Mao and Kakashi.

"I don't have many friends, Orochimaru counts as one, and your father counts as one......"

Hearing Shuo Mao say this, Yan couldn't help but be stunned, he never thought that his biological father would have such a good relationship with Shuo Mao.

"It's a pity that this time...... Alas, I was not able to bring your father back. But looking at you now, I think it's not bad to be here, and I think I have an explanation for your father. ”

Shuo Mao's voice was a little choked, Yan was a little surprised, has Shuo Mao's inner self-blame reached this point?

"Dad, those people...... They are obviously talking nonsense, they can only see your faults, but they completely forget the credit you have made. ”

There was a hint of indignation in Kakashi's anxious voice, and he knew very well that Hachiki Sakushige was a very proud man, but he was also a man who could easily get into the thick of the bull's horns.

When he failed to take care of his mother, Shuo Mao has always blamed himself in his heart, he put all his time on the task, and in just a few years, he went from the head of the dark army to the head of the dark department.

Everyone was praising Shuo Mao's abilities, but only Kakashi knew what kind of darkness Shuo Mao had been in those years.

"Kakashi......" Sakumo smiled and shook his head, "I didn't take care of your mother, I didn't take care of you, and I even had to rely on you to take care of me in those years...... I want to eat the fish you made. ”

"Father......" Kakashi was about to say something, but he looked into Shuo Mao's eyes, and then said with some frustration, "Okay." ”

Kakashi bowed his head and got up to leave, giving Yan a deep look before leaving, as if hoping that Yan would enlighten Shuo Mao. But when he thought of the situation in the past few years, Kakashi felt ...... How can a little kid do it?

Yan was also very embarrassed at the moment, he could see that Shuo Mao was on the tip of the bull's horns at the moment, but ......

Shuo Mao didn't seem to care, or made a decision in his heart, but said with a smile: "I have also eaten the kind of ramen you made with your hands, hahaha...... Kakashi was a mess for a few days......"

Shuo Mao was like a dying person at this time, constantly recalling the past and chattering about all kinds of interesting things......

"Kakashi was bitten by dogs as a child...... I also visited you when you were a child, and I saw that you were doing well, so I didn't bother you...... When your father and I were drinking together, we always said, if you're a girl, I'll match you with Kakashi, but it's a pity ......"

It's a pity that you're a boy, and it's a pity that I won't see the day Kakashi gets married......

Yan listened to Shuo Mao talking about the past, and at this time he also remembered that Hinata Tokuma had told him some things about Tokuma before, and Hinata Tokuma was his biological father.

Tokuma Hinata is one of the best ninjas in the family, and his white eyes and chakra perception are among the best in the entire Konoha area. From the time of Sakumo's fame, Hinata Tokuma was sent to his side to be his eyes.

Hinata came back to his senses, and Shuo Mao finally said what had been happening all along: "That should be the last task I took on, and the task itself is not difficult." With his white eyes and my short knife, the information was in hand quickly. ”

"But there are too many enemies, they are not afraid of death, and our team has paid a lot of price, and many of the lives of the members are left behind. But I want to take them home...... But when I know there's a teammate alive, I can't leave him anywhere, I can't abandon him......"

"You know, the predecessor of the Hachiki clan was actually a samurai family. Samurai, honor is more important than life, but in my heart, teammates are more important than honor. But I chose to go back and rescue him, I thought I had reached the territory of the Fire Country, and Tokuma and they were safe. But I didn't expect that my behavior was to abandon them in Tokuma......"

Kakashi walked over with a plate of grilled fish and gently placed it in front of Sakumo, not making a sound to disturb him.

"Kakashi, I didn't take good care of your mother, I'm not a good husband. After your mother died, I was obsessed with the task and failed to take care of you, I was a failed father; As a ninja, I failed to complete my mission, causing the village to suffer even greater losses; As a samurai, I tarnished my family's honor; As a captain, I didn't get my teammates home......"

Shuo Mao's voice stopped abruptly, he looked up at the clouds in the sky, and muttered, "I...... In this life, nothing can be accomplished......"

The information they obtained was actually a spy planted in the Fire Country by the Land of Thunder, and the biological mother of this body died because of the information transmitted by the spy.

So Shuo Mao thinks that Yan's parents died because of him, and the self-blame in his heart is deeply pressed on his heart, and the rumors on the street corner are just the fuse of all this.

Hinata Yan didn't know where to find an apple, handed it to Shuo Mao, Shuo Mao froze for a moment, and then a smile hung on the corner of his mouth and took the apple.

"Click-"

The sound of two apple gnaws sounded at the same time, and Hinata Yan swallowed the apple in his mouth and said, "To be honest, I have no impression of my parents, from the moment I opened my eyes, what I saw was Hizuki and Jin." ”

"We are ninjas, how many ninjas can we die well? You see, a thousand-handed clan is as big as a thousand-handed, and it will wither one day. ”

"Actually, I don't really understand the samurai, they value honor more than life, and ninjas value tasks more than life."

As he spoke, Hinata smiled self-deprecatingly, he was not a samurai, and he couldn't be a qualified ninja. If the necessary condition for completing the task is to give his own life, I'm afraid Hinata Yan will not hesitate to give up.

Zhong Yan once jumped into the river to save people, and the woman who fell into the water was very flustered and didn't understand water at all.

In fact, it is very dangerous for a swimmer to save a landlubber, because the landlubber is afraid of sinking, so it will firmly hold on to the life-saving straw, but this can easily cause the rescuer to drown together.

Zhong Yan was like this, he was firmly dragged by the woman, dragged into the water, and watched himself get farther and farther away from the water, if it wasn't for the roommate who saw that the situation was wrong, he quickly jumped down and dragged the two away, I'm afraid Zhong Yan would have rolled over at that time.

And after crossing over, Zhong Yan was almost starved to death again. So for Hyugayan, staying alive is more important than anything else.

"Click-"

Zhong Yan took a big bite of the apple and said vaguely: "Uncle Shuo Mao, you don't think you are a good husband or a good father. Can...... If you die and leave Kakashi alone in this world and let him bear the fault you left behind, then you are really a failed father. ”

"Death is very simple, but it is more difficult to live. You're dead, and you've chosen to run away, so what about Kakashi? ”

Hinata Yan smiled, because he saw that Shuo Mao's face was already a little hesitant, he was afraid that if he ran away, would he make a bigger mistake, Yan decided to add to the fire.

"I really envy my father because he has you as his teammate. How many people have you brought out of despair in your life? It's like you save that teammate, his wife, until her husband comes back, and his kids wait until his dad comes back."

"On the battlefield, you almost cut down all the high-end combat power of Shayin Village by yourself, have you ever thought about how many people you have saved? And how many people waited for her husband, his father ......"

"And my father always believed in you because he believed that no matter how desperate he was, you would come to his rescue. Uncle Shuo Mao, your name is the hope of many people going home. ”

Shuo Shigeru looked at the smiling Hinata Yan, turned around again, and looked at Kakashi.

Kakashi stared at a pair of dead fish eyes as he pushed the already cold grilled fish over, and Shuo Mao burst out laughing.

"Hahaha......"

The next day, Sakumo Hachiki resigned from his position as the head of the Shadow Department, and there was also news that Sakumo accidentally lost half of the Hokage's sleeve rewarded by the three generations of Hokage.

No one really thinks that people who can do it to the head of the dark department are stupid.

It's just that sometimes, even if you know, you can't do anything about it, this is Yangmou. The enemy did not intend to crush Shuo Mao with public opinion from the beginning, and only he could defeat him.

Oh, just a game of politics.

And the biggest winner of this game is not to manipulate the guidance of public opinion and think that he has gotten rid of a competitor's group collection. Instead, he pretended not to know anything and did nothing.

He has just led Konoha to victory, and he is in the prime of life, and he doesn't need a flag tree Shuo Mao who can replace him, if it is a few years later, when Sarutobi wants to retire...... Maybe the fourth generation Hokage is Hachiki Sakumo.
