Start One Piece: Everything Is Upended

"Kai……"Kakashi woke up and wanted to lift the quilt and sit up

"Don't move, your arm is seriously injured."Kai said.

Kakashi looked down and saw that his broken arm had been put in a plaster and hung around his neck. In order to deal with unexpected situations, there must be medical ninjas among the people accompanying him.

Kakashi lay down again, with one eye. Staring at the ceiling blankly.

Kaipan sat on the tatami nearby and said:"Kakashi, I know what you are thinking, but there are some things that it is too late to regret. We can only cherish what we have now and try our best." To save what 'can' be saved……"

Kakashi turned his gloomy eyes:"Are you trying to remind me that Obito is irreparable now?"

Kai shook his head and said:"No, he could have killed us, but he let us go. Think carefully. I think, so far, no Konoha ninja who has fought with him seems to have actually been killed (except for Gen). I think he still cares about Konoha and you. If you look at it this way, it may not be irreversible.."

HearHere, Kakashi's dim eyes became a little brighter

"but……"Kai paused and suddenly said seriously:"Kakashi, are you sure he is Obito? After all, only half of his face is revealed. If you hadn't called out Obito's name, I probably wouldn't have even thought about it.……"

Kakashi was startled and said:"Kay, you have never been able to remember other people's faces. I'm afraid you won't be able to recognize them if I show you my whole face."……"

At this time, Yuhi Hong came to the door and was about to push it in.

"That's not what I'm talking about. If Uchiha Ha was Obito, his strength would not match him at all. When Obito died, he was just a chuunin. How could he grow to a height comparable to the Five Kages in just one year? This is too much. Unbelievable!"

But when Kai's voice sounded from inside the door, Yuhi Kurenai's outstretched hand paused, and then slowly retracted it to her chest.

Kakashi said sadly:"Maybe what you said makes sense. In fact, the people who formed the team in the past At that time, deep down in my heart, I had always underestimated Obito's strength. Later, even if he opened the Sharingan, I didn't think he could make up for the gap in our foundation."

"It wasn't until... the moment he pushed me away in order to save me and he was pinned under the boulder that I changed my arrogant perception and recognized in my heart that he was a ninja with the same potential as me.……"

"Thinking about it now, I was still too shallow and never saw through that guy’s true potential. It wasn’t until half of his face under the mask appeared in front of me that I woke up from a dream.……"

Kai was a little complicated:"Kakashi……"

Kakashi looked at the ceiling:"I think the biggest reason why he doesn't want to agree with me is that I didn't protect Lin well. The second reason is that I am too weak to completely take off his mask and talk to him on an equal footing." Yeah, if Minato-sensei was here, the result would definitely be different.……"

"Therefore, I must become stronger. One day, I will take off his entire mask so that he can no longer hide his true face and make him recognize that I, Hatake Kakashi, am qualified to talk to him. person, and then try to have a heart-to-heart relationship with him and try to win him back.……"

When the hall reached this point, Kai showed a smile of relief:"Kakashi, it would be great if you could think about it from this perspective. I thought this would hit you hard and make you unable to recover again. It seems that it was me. You’re worrying too much!"

Kakashi turned around and asked,"By the way, Kai, you didn’t tell anyone else what happened tonight, right?"

Kai said,"No, I think with your character, you should want to keep it a secret.."

Kakashi said:"Well, Uchiha is probably Obito. Don't tell anyone yet, including Mr. Minato.……"

Kai nodded:"I understand."

"Hong, why are you standing here, why don't you go into the house?"At this time, Sarutobi Asuma's voice suddenly came from the corridor, followed by the Konoha people behind him.

In the room, Kakashi and Kai were both startled.

"Ah, I just got here and was about to go in.……"Hong said hurriedly

"We're here to see Kakashi, let's go in together."Asuma patted Kurenai on the shoulder.

Everyone entered the room and asked Kakashi how he was injured. Of course, Kakashi was tight-lipped about the mission, because that couldn't explain why Uchiha let him go. He just said It was snowy and the road was slippery. I accidentally fell down.

"It seems that even the genius Kakashi stumbles sometimes. Have a good rest tonight. There will be a lively event in the Hidden Village tomorrow.……"Asma Road

"Extravaganza?"

"Queen Nadeshiko issued a challenge to Shadow Uchiha. Tomorrow, no, it should be noon today, there will be a duel on the school field behind Shadow Village. There will definitely be a lot of people watching.……"

"That's it……"Kakashi lowered his eyes and thought to himself: Even if I stand close to him now, the distance is extremely far, so why bother myself.

Raising his head, Kakashi said:"I won't go there. I will go back to Konoha Village with Kai at dawn."

"ah? Why?"Everyone was startled.

Kakashi rubbed his plastered hands and said,"Walking on the street like this, isn't it embarrassing for Konoha? Besides, I also have something to report to Mr. Minato."

"ANBU members are just busy~ Then you should rest early, we will leave first."Everyone walked out

"red."At this time, Kakashi called out to Hong.

Hong stamped his feet, turned around after a moment, and said with his usual expression:"Kakashi, what's wrong?

Kakashi stared at her and asked after a moment,"It's nothing. Are you feeling better?""

"much better."Hong said

"That's good. Kai and I will go back tomorrow. You and Asuma are the strongest among us. Lead everyone well.……"

"Will do."Red nodded, walked out of the room, and closed the door.

Kakashi thought to himself: I hope I am worrying too much.……

"Hong, would you like to go have some supper together?"Asuma, who was waiting at the door, extended an invitation to Hong.

"night snack? Hong Xiu frowned slightly.

Asma said:"Yes, you seem to be in a much better mood. Eat something to warm yourself up. It's been too cold recently. I heard from Xuanjian that there is a hotpot in Anyin Village." Nice store……"

"Forget it today, I want to go back and rest early."Red interrupted Asuma.

Asuma didn't realize at the moment that the red thread that was destined for him was gradually broken because of his carelessness...

If Asma realized that something was wrong with Hong right away, and then If she was as considerate and caring as she was when she grew up, there might be room for redemption, but...

Asuma looked at Kurenai's back in confusion and shook his head:"Maybe, she was too tired after traveling a long distance."

"Asma, don't think about running away. Let's go to the school grounds tonight and occupy a better place so that we can see more clearly tomorrow!"Shiranui Genma said while biting a piece of wood.

"That's right, this is a good opportunity to understand Uchiha Yu's strength."

So, Asuma and the Konoha people gathered together and walked towards the school ground together.

Kurenai returned to the room alone, without turning on the light, sitting on the bedside, hugging his knees, looking at the open door The windows, and the curtains blown by the wind...

There was always the coldness in the red pupils, but in this coldness, there was a little more confusion, a little helplessness, and a little... a throbbing that she didn't know why....

In this way, this slightly long night was spent in their own thoughts.

Shadow Uchiha Ha, Nadeshiko Queen Nadeshiko Saori, a eye-catching duel is about to begin...
