Chapter 15: Chapter 15
Kakashi left the Hokage's office. I don't know what to think about. The Third Hokage highly valued him but this isn't unexpected. It was just that the Third Hokage expressing his appreciation suddenly made Kakashi somewhat surprised.
But Kakashi doesn't want to think too much. For now, upgrading his own strength is his top priority.
Today both Jiraiya and Orochimaru have returned to Konoha, and Orochimaru has not defected yet, but Kakashi remembers that it is not far from the days of Orochimaru's defection according to the original timeline.
Jiraiya is a character that Kakashi really appreciated in his previous life. At the same time is also a very weighty character among the Naruto fanbase. When Jiraiya died, all of the Naruto fan circles were a bit low, showing the terrifying popularity of this character.
Therefore, whether it is the relationship between the original Kakashi and Jiraiya, or the appreciation of Jiraiya in previous life, Kakashi intends to see the shinobi who will carry it through.
Using the Body Flicker Jutsu, Kakashi disappeared from where he just was. Trotting all the way to his destination, he stopped. Kakashi arrived at the door of Jiraiya's residence.
Although Jiraiya has been away from Konoha for a long time since the end of the Third Shinobi War, no one dares to move to his house. Nonsense! This is the house of one of the legendary Sannin, who dares to move in?
Jiraiya came back this time because of the death of Minato. He came back to mourn Minato and his wife. Jiraiya's mood at this time is definitely not pleasant. After all, he taught Minato with the utmost care, almost like a son. At the same time, Minato was also the most satisfying discipline. This kind of blow can be imagined.
It's just that after Jiraiya's adulthood, he no longer showed this sadness, but instead hid his sadness behind the cynical face he showed to the world.
When Kakashi came, Jiraiya sat by the window and was flipping through some adult magazines.
"Jiraiya!" Kakashi shouted at the big tree by the window. (EN: The original probably had Jiraiya-san or something but I just left it out. yeah… I didn't put any honorifics cuz its Jiraiya… )
Jiraiya looked up and then lowered his head again and said, "Hey, it's Kakashi. How come you came to see me today? I remember you are still in the Anbu. There should be a lot of missions."
"Just finished a mission, there are days to rest."
"Oh? Is there anything you need from me? Is there anything you need to ask from this Sage (Sennin)?" Jiraiya said, laughed heartily.
"Jiraiya, about Minato, I want to ask you some questions."
Without paying attention to Jiraiya's tricks, Kakashi directly asked his questions.
When he heard Minato's name, Jiraiya was obviously more serious. He put down the adult magazine in his hand and looked at Kakashi and said, "Minato? What do you want to say?"
"Jiraiya is an adult and more experienced. I know Minato was desperate to protect Konoha, but his child will have to live the life of an orphan. Do you think Minato's sacrifice was worth it?"
Jiraiya eyes gave a look of gaze and looked straight at Kakashi. Kakashi felt his body go cold for a moment, and he got goosebumps. At this moment, Kakashi almost wanted to pull his sword to resist.
But after a moment, this feeling disappeared. Jiraiya took back the terrifying look and said: "Kakashi, Minato sacrificed himself for the village. He was Hero, and the village treated his son so much. It was a little over. But there is no way, Naruto He has nine tails, and the mission is like this. Minato already thought of all of this when he chose Naruto as the Jinchūriki, but do you know why he still chooses Naruto as Jinchūriki?"
"Isn't it because of the Uzumaki family's bloodline?"
"This is only part of the reason. Minato trusts his child and feels that Naruto will definitely finish what he wasn't able to do in the future, and the nine tails are a guarantee that Minato gives Naruto. Now everything is just a Minato's test on Naruto."
"Test?" Kakashi had some doubts.
"Yes, only the shinobi who has experienced the darkness of the world can know how to face the light, and only one who knows the darkness of the world can save the darkness of this world."
"But this is too much for Naruto, and is Minato-sensei not afraid of Naruto breaking into the dark?"
"Kakashi, you don't understand. Minato, he believes in Naruto, just because he is his child, nothing more."
"Just because of his belief, he placed such a burden on his child? I don't know if it is fortune or misfortune." Kakashi bitter with a smile.
Although Kakashi knows the fate of Naruto, Naruto's experience is still unbearable for anybody else.
"haha, rest assured, there is still the Third Hokage, and Naruto will not go dark." Jiraiya laughed heartily, and changed back to the cynicism.
"I hope so."
Kakashi will ask this question, but it is just worthless for Naruto's experience today. Although Naruto is now just born, Kakashi knows that even the nurses who raise Naruto are not good to him, and most villagers hate him.
If it weren't for the Anbu's protection sent by the Third Hokage, I am afraid that Naruto would have already been killed and nobody would know or care.
"Kakashi, you are a little different." Jiraiya said suddenly.
Kakashi stopped and wondered. I don't understand why Jiraiya suddenly talked about this. Is it just that his changes are so obvious? Whether it is Third Hokage, Guy, or Jiraiya, they all said that he has changed.
"In the past, you wouldn't ask this kind of question. The biggest possibility that you are beginning to free yourself. Now you begin to care about others. You have already begun to walk out of the darkness." Jiraiya said with a smile.
Kakashi is silent. After all, he is not the real Kakashi. Although he inherited all of Kakashi's memories, feelings, and experiences, he is not Kakashi after all. Therefore, Kakashi's so-called darkness, in the fusion of Kakashi's soul, has disappeared.
Perhaps because of this, even if he inherited everything from Kakashi, the differences are still noticed by these people.
"Now you may be more like the son of Sakumo Hatake. And the sword you are wearing behind you, it seems that you have picked up the sword of Sakumo Hatake."
Jiraiya saw the millennium behind Kakashi, as if seeing the man who he worked with in the army, he couldn't help but ahow a trace of nostalgia.
"Yes, my father's sword will let him re-open in the world of tolerance." Kakashi nodded. (EN: ???)
"Okay, very good, I am waiting for that day. I am very pleased to see you like this. Ok, since we met today, I will teach you a Ninjutsu." Jiraiya's topic jumps to Kakashi and over to something else in seconds.
"Ninjutsu?" Kakashi stunned, how didn't think Jiraiya would be so interested.
"Yes, I see that your Ninjutsu is mostly Attack-based and lacks defense. The Ninjutsu I will teach you this time is called a Needle Jizo! You can defend yourself with your hair. It is very practical, I believe you will have great use for it."
"Many thanks Jiraiya." Kakashi is also unpretentious, the Ninjutsu Kakashi knows is really lacking.
"No problem. You are Minato's Disciple, and like my grandson. It is also appropriate to teach you something." Jiraiya said with a smile.
