Chapter 123: Kakashi's Heart Knot (5k)
"Yesterday's mission was really dangerous, thanks to your support Long Xian, otherwise I would be in danger."
"Haha, we're companions, I'm not Kakashi's kind of guy who doesn't care about his teammates for the sake of the mission."
"Speaking of Kakashi, some time ago I seemed to hear that his team suffered heavy losses in the mission, and only the guide Shinobu and himself survived, it's really miserable."
"It's really going to be unfortunate to be on a team with that guy, it's better to leave early, otherwise something like this might happen to our team."
After training, Kakashi dragged his tired body home, and on the way he bumped into his former teammates chatting.
Hearing the conversation between the two, Kakashi's thoughts about breathing suddenly stopped.
Kakashi didn't go out of his way to hide his whereabouts, and the two former teammates instantly shut their mouths when they noticed that Kakashi just walked over.
"Ahem, Kakashi, good evening." Former teammates didn't know if Kakashi heard it, but Kakashi didn't say anything, so he said hello as if he didn't hear it.
"Well, good evening." Kakashi replied with a blank nod, and continued walking towards home.
"It's so embarrassing, I don't know if he heard it."
"It's the same if you hear it or not, he shouldn't have a good impression of us anyway."
Kakashi, who was good at hearing, could still hear some small conversations even if he walked some distance, but he didn't have the heart to pay attention to this anymore.
Kakashi wasn't angry at his two former teammates for talking about him behind his back, and if he did, he would have been when his father committed suicide, because he could feel strange looks everywhere he went.
And they really weren't wrong, on Kakashi's side, the mission was the highest priority, and while on the mission, they were injured, and Kakashi was just as focused on the mission.
During the time he became Muyue's disciple, except for the beginning, Kakashi rarely thought about what it means to be a qualified ninja, and a ninja should not be the first task.
Because Mu Yue's cultivation intensity is full, it is either to learn the advanced ninjutsu of pseudo-dark purple lightning or the secret forbidden technique of thunder breath armed color domineering, and under the high-intensity cultivation, it is difficult to have the energy to think about other things.
And there was also an Obito in the team who was crazy about pulling him emotionally, so Kakashi had to spend the rest of his energy on the line with Obito.
The words of the two former teammates brought Kakashi back into the thoughts of the mission and the ninja and his teammates.
"The reason why my father is blamed by everyone is because of the failure of the mission, so the ninja who can complete the mission is a qualified ninja." Kakashi thought to himself.
Then Kakashi shook his head again, he thought of Mu Yue's words, White Fang carried out his ninja way, and he was not a failed ninja.
Although he hasn't known Mu Yue for a long time, Kakashi admires Mu Yue very much, not only because Mu Yue is very strong, but because Mu Yue has excelled in all aspects of his role as a teacher, which is different from all the teachers he has met before.
So what Mu Yue said, Kakashi was willing to listen and believe.
There was a hint of confusion in Kakashi's eyes, on the one hand, the established fact that his father had committed suicide after being blamed for failing his mission, and on the other hand, the recognition from his admiring teacher, telling him that Hakuya was actually a respectable ninja.
Kakashi thought about it, ate dinner, and didn't come up with anything after thinking about eleven o'clock in the evening.
Lying in bed, Kakashi didn't fall asleep for a long time, even if he was very sleepy, he wanted to sleep, but as soon as he closed his eyes, he couldn't help but think about those things, so he couldn't fall asleep.
In the end, Kakashi didn't know when he fell asleep, but when he woke up and saw the big sun outside, Kakashi knew one thing, he was late.
Kakashi quickly finished washing up, then grabbed something to eat and stuffed it into his mouth and hurried to the southern forest.
When Kakashi arrived, the other disciples were already cultivating, with soil and water stopping using all concentrated breathing and running with hot sweat, Maitkai scratching his ears and cheeks to cultivate the nature of Yin Retreat, and there were injured fish and broken trees next to Nohara Rin.
Obito, who was running, happened to pass by Kakashi, and when he saw Kakashi who was late, Obito swept away the tired look on his face and laughed:
"Yo, isn't this Kakashi, why are you two and a half hours late today."
"Have you also gone to help the old man?"
After saying this, Obito instantly felt refreshed, and his body didn't seem to be so tired.
In the past, he was late and Kakashi told that this time it was finally his turn.
"It's just a late night." Kakashi explained expressionlessly, and then walked over to Mu Yue.
"Cut, I'm so angry when I'm late." Obito muttered a sentence and continued to cultivate.
"Teacher Muyue, I'm sorry." Kakashi apologized, "I didn't sleep well yesterday, so I woke up late today." ”
"It's okay, it's okay to be late occasionally, after all, there are always accidents, let's start cultivating." Mu Yue said with a smile.
Kakashi nodded, and then began to practice the Thunder Breath under Mu Yue's guidance.
I don't know if it's because I didn't sleep well yesterday or what, today Kakashi couldn't feel the breathing method very much, and he didn't feel a trace of progress after the morning cultivation, and even more so when he cultivated the armed color domineering in the afternoon.
In the morning, it can be explained that he was two and a half hours late and didn't have enough time to practice, but in the afternoon he really didn't know what he was practicing.
Normally, Mu Yue can automatically rehearse in his mind as soon as he talks and demonstrates, but today he didn't.
Although Mu Yue didn't know what happened to Kakashi, he sensed that something was wrong when he looked at Kakashi's performance.
"Kakashi, your heart is upset." Mu Yue said.
Armed color domineering is yin, and it is related to spiritual power, and if the mental state is not good, it will be half the result if you cultivate.
"I'm sorry, Teacher Mu Yue, I'm in a bit of a bad state today, I'll try to adjust it tomorrow." Kakashi said apologetically.
Mu Yue taught him so seriously, but he couldn't even concentrate on studying, Kakashi felt a little guilty in his heart.
"Go for it and remember to believe in yourself." Mu Yue said with a kind smile.
"Thank you." Feeling the warm breath on Mu Yue's body, Kakashi felt a little relieved in his heart.
Since he was late for the day and didn't make any progress in his cultivation, Kakashi practiced more at night and practiced the breathing method in his own courtyard to make up for it.
However, his cultivation was still not smooth, and Kakashi never found that feeling.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Kakashi took a shower, went to bed and began to sleep.
As soon as he lay on the bed, Kakashi subconsciously remembered the accusations his father had suffered before, the disapproval of his teammates for him, and then he remembered Obito's words and Muyue's words.
His mind was very chaotic, one moment the ninja had to abide by the rules and complete the task even at the expense of his companions, and the other time his companions were the most important thing to protect the safety of his companions.
"Sleep, sleep, sleep......" Kakashi kept silently reciting the word sleep in his mind, he heard that this was a cure for insomnia, hinting at himself and feeling sleepy.
I don't know if it was because the method didn't work or because of Kakashi's own, he still didn't fall asleep, and then Kakashi glanced at the time, it was already two o'clock in the morning.
With a slight sigh, Kakashi tried to sleep again.
"Late ......"
Waking up the next day, Kakashi saw the scorching sun outside and knew he was late again today.
He quickly packed up and went to the southern forest to start cultivating.
"Kakashi, you're actually two and a half hours late, you won't stay up late at night to cultivate until the early hours of the morning, right?" Obito looked at Kakashi suspiciously.
He suspected that Kakashi was secretly rolling him up, and someone like Kakashi could be late twice in a row, and he was late for so many hours.
"It's not." With a succinct answer with an expressionless face, Kakashi walked up to Mu Yue and began to explain.
"Teacher Muyue, I'm sorry, I had insomnia again last night." Kakashi explained.
Mu Yue asked with a concerned face: "There is nothing wrong with the body, why did you suddenly lose sleep?" ”
"Thank you, Teacher Muyue, for your concern, I'm in good health." Kakashi's heart warmed, and he shook his head in reply.
"As for insomnia, maybe I've been thinking a little too much lately."
Mu Yue patted Kakashi's shoulder and said with a smile: "The body is the most important, if there is something to tell me, don't bother me, for the teacher, there is no such thing as trouble for the disciple." ”
Kakashi nodded slightly, feeling a little soothed.
It may be that last night's additional training played a role, and this morning after practicing the breathing method, there has been a little progress, but the armed color domineering in the afternoon is still completely incomprehensible.
After the afternoon training, Kakashi went to buy an alarm clock, and he definitely couldn't be late again tomorrow.
Kakashi didn't practice tonight, he finished washing up at eight o'clock and went to bed.
Kakashi's idea was that since he slept at eleven and couldn't fall asleep until after three in the morning, he slept at eight, and even if he didn't fall asleep for four hours, he would fall asleep at twelve.
But when Kakashi lay down on the bed, he found that he couldn't sleep without thinking about those things, and then he had all kinds of eyes open and closed, and his mind couldn't help but think about all kinds of things.
This time, not only was he thinking about the relationship between the ninja missions, but Kakashi was also thinking about whether he should save his teammates or continue the mission if Maitkai and Obito were in danger during the next mission.
Ding Ding Ding!
Kakashi heard a crisp sound in a groggy state, and instantly woke up at the thought of going to Muyue's side to cultivate, probably because he slept too little, Kakashi could feel the soreness in his eyes just by opening his eyes.
Kakashi finished washing up with his eyes closed, then quickly went to the Southern Forest to cultivate after breakfast.
Kakashi wasn't late this time, and he wasn't the latest either.
"Eh, Kakashi wasn't late today." When Obito arrived, he saw Kakashi's figure, and his face was a little surprised.
"Don't take me for you." Kakashi said lightly.
"I'm late to help the elderly, I won't be late because I'm going to bed late." Bring the soil back to the road.
Although Kakashi wasn't late today, too little sleep caused Kakashi to be in poor spirits and his cultivation effect was a little poor.
Mu Yue could see that Kakashi's autism was a little serious again.
In fact, Mu Yue knew that Kakashi's problem had not been completely solved, just because he had one of his few friends here, and Mu Yue, a warm and confidant teacher, coupled with the heavy cultivation task, suppressed Kakashi's problem.
Mu Yue can also understand Kakashi, who was even seven years old when White Fang committed suicide.
For such a young child, it is strange that his self-admiring father committed suicide at home because of accusations, and he is not depressed and autistic.
"This needs strong medicine to cure it." Mu Yue thought in her heart.
It's hard to heal a shadow of Kakashi's level, and you may not be able to think about it one day because of some words.
Mu Yue felt that Kakashi was facing a life-and-death crisis, and he knew the truest thoughts in his heart and felt the humanity from his companions, so that he could completely heal his body and mind.
"Kakashi, why did you become so weak, this little bit of training is so tired, if you come to practice my current training, I guess it will exhaust you to death." Obito noticed that Kakashi seemed to be extraordinarily tired.
"It's just not in good shape." Kakashi adjusted his expression and said indifferently, but the look of exhaustion in his eyebrows was still difficult to hide.
"Kakashi, you wait and go back with me, I'll make you some body-conditioning cooking." Mu Yue said.
Obito saw that he was still in a bad state, so he smiled and said, "Teacher Muyue, in fact, my state is quite poor, so it's better to ......."
Syllable!
Mu Yue's fingers tapped on Obito's head accurately, and then rubbed Obito's hair and said, "Just say that you want to eat together." ”
"I want to eat together." Obito touched the place where he was knocked and said quickly.
"Let's all come along." Mu Yue said to all the disciples.
Not a single disciple would not like Mu Yue's food, and everyone agreed, but except for Kakashi and Shisui, the others had to go home and talk to their families.
After eating, Obito and Kakashi began to fight each other on a daily basis, Obito said that Kakashi was too weak, and he couldn't do it after a little training, and Kakashi said that Obito's brain was about to rust, and it was hard to imagine that the theory could actually be tested below 20 points.
"If you show concern, you can be more direct." With a gentle smile, Nohara Rin began to make peace with the mud.
Nohara Rin said to Kakashi: "Don't look at Obito like this, in fact, he cares about you very much, and when he went back yesterday, he discussed with me whether you were sick or not, saying that a genius like you would be late." ”
Kakashi showed a surprised expression, Obito would actually say that he was a genius, which made Kakashi a little suspicious of the truth of the matter.
Seeing that Nohara Lin actually revealed his old bottom with soil, his face quickly turned red, and he waved his hands and said:
"Xiao Lin, you must be mistaken, how could I say such a thing."
Seeing Obito's reaction, Kakashi felt that what Nohara Rin said might be true.
"My best friend, your youth has not been as enthusiastic as before." Maitkai said with a serious face.
Kakashi didn't know how to answer, and he was also a little irritable with himself in his heart, he would actually delay his normal cultivation because of this kind of thing.
After everyone left, Mu Yue stopped Kakashi and said, "Why don't you sleep at my house today, I have something to talk to you about." ”
Kakashi hesitated for a moment, then nodded eventually.
"Kakashi, if you don't mind, share your recent troubles with me, it may not help you solve it, but it's better to say it." After bringing Kakashi to the living room, Mu Yue asked out loud.
Kakashi was silent for a moment, then spoke:
"Teacher Muyue, do you really think that White Fang is a qualified ninja, not a loser?"
Kakashi stared into Mu Yue's eyes, wanting to make sure that Mu Yue's answer was true.
"No matter how many times I ask, there is only one answer, White Fang is a qualified ninja who has carried out his ninja path." Mu Yue looked into Kakashi's eyes and said seriously.
"Then why do everyone still blame him, even the rescued companions are also blaming." Kakashi asked, looking confused.
The essential reason why he struggles with whether a ninja is qualified or not is that he can't let go of his father's death.
"Because there is a conflict between the ninja of the white fang and the rules of the village, for the village, of course, the interests are the priority, so to ensure the success rate of the mission, the ninja who can complete the task is the good ninja of the village.
But White Fang is different, he has his own beliefs, and for him, the life of his companion is far more than any task. ”
"Right and wrong is a very subjective question, for me or White Fang, I will think that I have done the right thing, but for others, there is a different judgment."
"Of course, the reason why White Fang is blamed so much is not only because the mission failed, but also because he is Konoha White Fang." Mu Yue replied.
It's not a one-person mission, and of course you can't blame all the blame on one person, White Fang is just the most well-known ninja in that mission.
White Fang is too straight, if Mu Yue comes, what is the culprit of the mission failure, he is the Konoha hero who tried to rescue his companions when the mission failed.
"If you are more famous, you will bear everyone's blame?" Mu Yue's answer was too realistic and dark, and Kakashi was a little difficult to accept for a while.
"The reality is always crueler than we think, but you don't have to think too much, I believe that even if White Fang is given a chance to do it again, he will still choose to save his teammates and then try his best to complete the mission." Mu Yue said earnestly.
"After all, other people's ideas are other people's, just have a clear conscience and stick to the beliefs in your heart."
Could it be that White Fang committed suicide because he couldn't bear it psychologically and was scolded? Mu Yue doesn't think so, he thinks that White Fang committed suicide because his faith collapsed.
There were so many messages tonight that Kakashi thought he couldn't sleep again, but he slept well today.
"Since I usually live here alone, there is only one bed, but fortunately, you are still young, so there should be no feeling of crowding." Mu Yue said this and pulled Kakashi to the bed to sleep.
For the first time sleeping in the same bed with someone other than his family, Kakashi was inexplicably relieved.
"After all, it's Teacher Mu Yue." Kakashi thought to himself, and soon fell asleep after feeling sleepy.
Because it's a big chapter that has been updated.,There's another chapter to follow.
