Qingsi nodded.
"That's it."
Nohara Lin put down the lunch box and planned to turn around and get one for Qingji as well.
"No, I'll be leaving right away."
Qingsi shook his head, exchanged a few words of greeting, and then took his leave.
Nohara Rin’s matter needs to ferment, and fermentation takes time.
This time will not be too long, just within these few days.
Qingsi was not in a hurry.
"Kakashi, what are you talking about?"
After Qingji left, Nohara Lin opened the lunch box and asked Kakashi.
"Nothing, it's confidential."
Kakashi said calmly.
The matter of joining the Anbu cannot be revealed casually.
Otherwise, everyone would know the identity of the Anbu, and wearing a mask would be meaningless.
Kakashi actually didn't know much about Anbu, and his father rarely mentioned Anbu before his death.
The only thing that is clear is that the Anbu is a bloody and dark place!
When Obito gave his Sharingan as a gift to the jonin and died to save him, Kakashi realized what "bonds" were.
I also realized that idiots who don't value their companions are trash among ninjas.
This is what Obito taught him with his life, but it's a pity that he realized it too late.
So Kakashi didn't want Nohara Rin to get involved in these things. Obito entrusted Nohara Rin to him, so Kakashi had to fulfill his promise with Obito to "protect Rin" at the risk of his life.
"Secret...huh?"
Nohara Lin's eyes were filled with a layer of sadness. She rubbed her eyes casually and quietly wiped away the tears.
Ever since Kakashi came back, I've been actively keeping a certain distance from him.
When I was discussing Lightning Release with Kakashi before, the atmosphere between the two of them was pretty good.
Now I have returned to the original progress, and I even feel a deep sense of distance.
"Kakashi..."
Nohara Lin seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if she wanted to say what had been buried in her heart all these years.
"Rin... Obito likes you very much... He values you very much..."
Kakashi realized what Nohara Rin wanted to say and spoke first.
"..."
Nohara Lin lowered her eyes.
Shouldn't love be free?
Doesn't she have the right to pursue the person she likes?
Because Obito might like me, so I can't be with Kakashi?
"I...I'm leaving first."
After Kakashi finished his lunch box, Nohara Rin packed up the lunch box and quickly walked out the door.
"Lin..."
Kakashi stretched out his hand in pain, then quickly pulled it back.
This was his own fault and he had to atone for it.
Chapter 217 Nohara Lin's Prayer (6k)
Kakashi turned his head.
The ward he was in had good lighting, and he could see Hokage Rock in the distance through the window.
The statues of all the previous Hokage are on it.
"Father...I'm beginning to understand you."
Kakashi murmured.
When he was young, he didn't understand why his father gave up the mission for his companions.
"People who don't follow the rules are trash, and people who don't cherish their friends are even worse than trash."
This is what Obito said when he went up to catch up with him.
If it weren't for his hesitation, Obito's ending wouldn't necessarily be death under the cold rocks, death in a foreign country.
He was the one who killed Obito...
Looking at the unchanging Hokage Rock outside the window, Kakashi covered his painful left eye.
…………
"Xiaolin, are you back?"
When Nohara Lin returned home, she was greeted by her parents.
Her parents came from very ordinary families, commonly known as commoners.
Nohara Lin nodded and went into the room alone.
Grab a change of clothes and start bathing.
Wow…
Hot water poured from the shower head, flowing over her slightly immature body.
A hazy mist rose in the bathroom, making it foggy.
“…It feels like it’s getting hotter the more I shower.”
Nohara Lin changed the hot water to ice-cold water.
But it still couldn't quench her heat.
It's getting hotter.
It's like there's a fire that's been suppressed.
The cold water makes people feel comfortable.
Nohara Lin noticed this.
"It seems like my pressure is increasing."
Man is a spring.
Once you are under pressure, you need to relieve it.
But Kakashi's matter could never make Nohara Lin feel at ease.
Nohara Lin thought of Seiji.
It is said that a doctor does not treat himself.
If I have time, maybe I should ask Qingsi to help me recuperate.
…………
That night.
A secret gathering beneath the Nanga Shrine.
"Captain Fugaku! The Sharingan must not be left in the hands of outsiders!"
Uchiha Yaowei said in an intense tone.
The Sharingan is the proof of the Uchiha clan.
If the Sharingan were to be spread out, it would surely attract the attention of many people.
It would be fine if Kakashi was crippled by the Sharingan, as it would also serve as a deterrent to outsiders. Not everyone can transplant the Sharingan.
But if Kakashi recovers from his injury, he will be able to thrive with the help of this Sharingan, or even make further progress.
Then it will bring shock to the outside world.
The Sharingan is a hot-swappable plug-in!
When the Uchiha clan goes out on a mission, they will attract the greedy gazes of countless outsiders.
"I know, don't get too excited, it smells like medicine."
Uchiha Fugaku waved his hand, signaling Uchiha Yaowei to calm down.
He essentially didn't want to make a big deal out of it.
If the situation gets out of hand, the Uchiha clan will be further separated from the village.
He himself is still in the spotlight, and there are always voices slandering him.
"Qingji, you're an Anbu, what do the villagers think?"
Fugaku asked.
Most members of the Uchiha clan work in the Konoha Police Department. Even when they go out on missions or participate in wars, they work in teams.
Qingsi is the only one who holds public office in the village.
Although the Konoha Police Department is also an important part of the village's security, it is still a little far from the village's real power core.
Thus, Seiji became the eyes and ears of the Uchiha.
It was an important channel for the Uchiha to listen to the village.
Similarly, Danzo Shimura probably hasn't replaced Uchiha Kahara yet, and has only put up some surveillance cameras.
So if the Konoha high-level officials want to listen to the Uchiha, they have to go through Seiji.
Sometimes, what is seen by surveillance and what is described in person may lead to two different conclusions.
If you want to understand Uchiha, you have to find a trustworthy Uchiha to learn from.
This is what a bridge is.
"The village probably wants to give the Sharingan to Kakashi. After all, it's a gift from Obito to Kakashi for his promotion to Jonin. Kakashi is also a hero of this war and also... the son of White Fang."
Qingsi spoke lightly.
Hatake Sakumo's influence was indeed great, so great that even after decades of his death, daimyo still remembered him.
When talking about Kakashi, the first thing that comes to mind is the son of White Fang, rather than some of Kakashi's personal achievements.
"...White Fang's child."
Uchiha Fugaku sighed.
It was for this reason that he didn't want to make things worse.
No one could have predicted that Hatake Sakumo would commit suicide.
But since he committed suicide, he is still a hero who made countless contributions to the village.
The village will be in the wrong.
Then Kakashi would have some compensation, so as to avoid making other ninjas who have contributed to the village think too much.
The village's attitude towards Kakashi's possession of the Sharingan is obvious.
"Hmph, what if the Sharingan is exiled?"
The eighth Uchiha spoke.
He is one of Fugaku's most trusted confidants, but his personal opinions are more hawkish.
Any factors that endanger the interests of the Uchiha clan must be eliminated!
