A nightmare.
The memories that had been sealed by Tsunade for many years suddenly came back to life and turned into a nightmare to attack her.
Was it because she returned to Konoha, or was it because she accidentally saw blood yesterday that she was affected and had this nightmare?
"Lord Tsunade, are you alright?"
Shizune was startled awake by Tsunade. When she saw the latter's pale face and sweaty appearance, she could not help but be frightened.
"I'm fine. I just had a dream."
Tsunade waved her hand and spent a bit of time to slow down.
The days of avoiding debts were dull and boring.
Tsunade did not have the money to go to the casino, nor did she dare to show off outside. If Konoha's people recognized her, and the creditors chased after her, she would have to run away again.
The master and servant stayed in the hotel until the afternoon.
Tsunade could not hold it in anymore.
"I'm going out for a while. I'll come back later." She left a sentence to Shizune and hurried out.
Ten minutes later.
This time, Tsunade did not get lost again. She quickly entered the gym and found Dan.
In the reception room.
"I agreed. When will the operation begin?" She asked directly.
"It's simple. Just wait for me to invite my friend over."
Dan said. He stood up and walked to the door. He smiled and shouted, "Itachi, come here."
"!"
Itachi, who was working out in the machine area, was still absent-minded. When he heard this voice, his body suddenly trembled and he slowly turned around.
Seeing his uncle waving at him with a smile, his heart skipped a beat. He was already traumatized.
Don't tell me you're going to spar with me again using Taijutsu...
The good news was that his uncle only asked him to help run errands and invite someone over as a guest.
"That guy, Kakashi, is your captain when you were with Anbu, right? Then you must have a good relationship with him. It's suitable for you to invite him," Dan said to his nephew.
Dan said to his nephew.
When Itachi heard this, he revealed a troubled expression. "But, I've already withdrawn from Anbu. Moreover, with Captain Kakashi's personality..."
Halfway through his words, Itachi closed his mouth because he noticed that his uncle had stopped smiling and was looking at him with an expressionless face.
"Itachi, you must believe in yourself. It's just inviting someone. What's so difficult about it? If you can't even do this kind of thing well, I, your uncle, will be angry."
As Dan said this, he patted his nephew's shoulder heavily to show his encouragement.
Itachi: "... "
He endured the pain in his shoulder and did not let himself cry out.
Itachi felt more and more that his uncle was like a giant baby. All the people and things around him had to follow his heart and never reason with him.
It just so happened that this giant baby possessed extremely powerful strength, causing no one to be able to defy his will, especially the unlucky Itachi.
Thus.
"I got it."
Itachi could only nod his head and silently turn around to leave.
Seeing his nephew leave, Dan was very satisfied. Recently, Itachi had become more and more obedient.
It was all because of his uncle's education.
It seemed that he had to increase his strength in the future.
"Go and prepare a table of food. I want to entertain the guests." Dan told Samui again and returned to the reception room.
"Your friend is Kakashi?"
After hearing the conversation between the uncle and nephew, Tsunade could not sit still.
She stood up and frowned at Dan and asked,
"Could it be that you, Uchiha, want to... take back Kakashi's Sharingan? If that's the case, I will reject this surgery."
"Why?" Dan pretended to be puzzled.
"Because Kakashi is Konoha's, Anbu. I am just an ordinary doctor. I don't want to get involved in the conflict between you, Uchiha and Konoha." Tsunade was very cautious.
"You guessed wrong, how can I, Uchiha Dan, be so stingy."
Dan shook his head and motioned for Tsunade to sit down. Then he took out a container and showed Three Tomoe Sharingan in it to her.
"This is..." Tsunade was a little confused.
"Not taking it back, but replacing it. Use this Sharingan to exchange for the one in Kakashi's eyes."
After Dan explained his purpose, he emphasized, "Moreover, this operation has to be carried out without Kakashi's knowledge, so you have to help me keep it a secret later."
Secrecy ?
"How can I let Kakashi not know?" Tsunade was even more confused.
"This is your mission." Dan meaningfully hinted at Tsunade to use some special methods.
The two of them were in cahoots, discussing over here.
On the other side.
Itachi didn't know where to find Kakashi, so he could only come to Anbu to inquire.
"Stop! Itachi, you quit Anbu and became a deserter. Do you still have the face to come back?" An Anbu Ninja blocked him at the entrance.
"I still have some personal items in the storage cabinet. I didn't take them away." Itachi found an excuse.
In the end, that Anbu didn't like him and still didn't let him in.
Fortunately, Tenzo passed by and helped Itachi solve the problem in time.
"Do you know where Captain Kakashi is? I have something to ask him." Itachi took the opportunity to ask Tenzo.
"Senior Kakashi..."
Tenzo touched his chin and thought for a moment. His eyes lit up and he said with certainty, "I heard that the Icha Icha Paradise has listed a new book. Senior must have gone to the Bookstore!"
Getting the news.
Itachi made the best use of his time and rushed towards the bookstore.
Kakashi put his hands in his pockets as he walked on the street, deep in thought.
Yesterday.
He and Tenzo encountered a mysterious enemy. After reporting to Sandaime, he successfully protected Kyubi Jinchuriki.
He resolved a crisis.
Sandaime attached great importance to this matter. He immediately used Anbu's power to search for the whereabouts of the enemy in the entire village.
After Kakashi went back, he thought about it for another night.
He finally came to a shocking conclusion:
The mysterious masked man Sharingan, was Obito's right eye!
Because of this, he was able to sense his left eye and share their vision.
Other than that, Kakashi couldn't think of any other explanation.
After all, during the Battle.
After Obito died, Konoha was unable to retrieve his body. He had always suspected that he had been taken away by a ninja from Iwagakure.
Moreover, Kakashi also noticed it.
The masked man's teammate, the guy with the shape of a housefly, was good at the earth release technique. After he merged with the ground, he immediately disappeared.
As expected of the Rock Ninja?
However.
Why would the Rock Ninja use Wood Release?
This puzzled Kakashi, and his CPU was about to burn.
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
The only thing Kakashi could be sure of was:
If he met the masked man again, he would try his best to get back Obito's right eye.
Whether it is to keep the right eye with him or return it to the Uchiha clan, Kakashi will never tolerate it. Obito's eye is desecrated by Rock ninja.
Unknowingly, he walked to the entrance of the bookstore.
The next second.
Kakashi's gaze looked at the most eye-catching location of the bookstore, and was deeply attracted by the title and cover of a book, unable to move away.
That's right.
It was Icha Icha Paradise, middle volume.
Kakashi came back to his senses and hurriedly went in to buy a book. Then he hid in a corner of the bookstore and looked at it with relish.
It was another day when he was happily slacking.
Kakashi from the past.
Because of his father Sakumo, his companion Obito and Rin, as well as Sensei's fourth generation Hokage couple - the passing of these close people one by one made his heart sink into a heavy darkness and sorrow.
Until the day of Kakashi's 18th birthday.
Mister Jiraya gave him "Icha Icha Paradise" as a gift and said that Kakashi was the first reader of this book.
Kakashi was flattered. After opening the Icha Icha Paradise, he quickly became addicted to it.
He could not extricate himself.
The content of the book made his face red and his ears red.
But Kakashi found out between the lines that Jiraiya had hidden his philosophy of life and the way of ninja.
Always look new.
That was why he had been so fond of this book.
Now, almost three years had passed, and the middle book of Icha Icha Paradise was finally published.
At this time, Kakashi was eagerly flipping through the pages, throwing all his worries to the back of his mind.
Just as he was concentrating on studying the contents of the book.
"Senior Kakashi." A voice suddenly sounded in front of him.
Kakashi looked up and found that it was Itachi. He couldn't help but be surprised and asked in surprise, "Itachi, are you looking for me?"
"That... my uncle invited you to his house as a guest."
Itachi said nervously, worried that Kakashi would not agree.
Sure enough.
"Your uncle? Oh, it's Uchiha Dan. I'm sorry, I'm on a mission and can't leave for the time being."
Kakashi rejected the invitation.
As he spoke, he quietly put away the Icha Icha Paradise. If Itachi asked, he couldn't say that his mission was to laze and read books.
Itachi sighed in his heart. He really had no choice.
Left with no choice, he could only beg Kakashi,
"My uncle said that if you don't go, he will be angry with me. Please save me, Senior Kakashi, please."
After saying this, he did not wait for Kakashi to reject and bowed deeply to the latter.
"This..."
Kakashi was caught off guard and felt rather helpless.
He recalled what happened that night at Uchiha's clan meeting.
At that time, when Uchiha's people wanted to take back his eyes, it was Dan who stop their clansmen and let Kakashi leave.
Although Kakashi did not want to accept the other party's invitation to him, it seemed that it was necessary to thank him in person.
Forget it.
Thinking of this, Kakashi said to Itachi, "I promise you."
Hearing this, Itachi finally let out a sigh of relief.
The two of them walked out of the bookstore together and headed towards the gym.
Along the way.
The discussions of the surrounding villagers came to their ears intermittently. Most of them were about Dan.
From when Dan was a child, he beat up his Sensei and was expelled. Later, when the war broke out, he hid in the village and did not go to the battlefield to protect Konoha. Then, he killed Anbu and sold the corpses of the ninjas in the same village for money...
All sorts of crimes, which were too numerous to be explained, became more and more outrageous in the mouths of the villagers.
In short.
In the hearts of Konoha's people, Uchiha Dan was already a heinous criminal.
"Why hasn't such a person died yet?"
When he mentioned the name, everyone was filled with righteous indignation and wanted to kill him.
Kakashi was a little dazed.
In the past, the rumors that his father, Sakumo, had faced were probably not even one-tenth of what Dan was facing now.
"I wonder how Dan sees all of this?" Kakashi couldn't help but sigh.
Itachi thought for a moment and said, "I feel that based on uncle's character, he wouldn't care about this at all. If others say that he is cruel and evil, he might think that they are praising him."
In fact, there was one more thing that Itachi didn't say.
Perhaps in his uncle's opinion, the villagers were just a group of chattering monkeys. No matter how loud the noise was, it was just a monkey show.
Kakashi was speechless.
If his father had such a "big heart", he might not have committed suicide.
Soon.
The two of them arrived at Body Modification Department's door, pushed the door open, and entered.
As soon as they entered the gym, they saw Inabi and the others who were training.
"Kakashi?"
When Inabi saw Kakashi, he remembered that the latter had been released by the curator last time, so he did not feel troubled. Instead, he nodded at Kakashi.
In the eyes of Uchiha and the others.
Kakashi must have come to discuss something important with the curator.
Kakashi felt uneasy about the friendly kindness released by Inabi and the others.
He did not want to develop any relationship with Uchiha.
So.
After seeing Dan, after expressing his gratitude for what happened last time, he will quickly left.
"Uncle, I brought Senior Kakashi here."
Itachi led Kakashi into the reception room and retreated, closing the door.
There was a table of food on the tatami.
In the room, besides Dan, there was also an unfamiliar blond noble son sitting next to him, also sizing up Kakashi.
"Please sit." Dan gestured to Kakashi.
After Kakashi sat down on the opposite side, seeing the doubt in the other party's eyes, Dan took the initiative to introduce,
"This is Doctor Dan who had traveled the various countries in the world. His medical skills are superb, just like my name. He is a friend I just made."
As soon as he finished speaking, Doctor Dan, who was also Tsunade, said to Kakashi,
"Copy Ninja Kakashi, I have heard of your name for a long time! Today, I finally see you in person. It is really an honor."
"You are too polite."
Kakashi politely replied, and then directly asked Dan what he was looking for today.
Dan heard this and said with a smile,
"Nothing else. I just want to gather with you and represent Uchiha's clan to thank you for spreading Sharingan's name for us."
"It was Sharingan who helped me. It should be me who should thank Uchiha." Kakashi was very modest.
"In that case, let's have a drink."
Dan picked up the bottle on the spot, poured a glass of wine personally, and handed it to Kakashi.
Kakashi hesitated for a moment. Thinking that it was really not polite to reject, he picked up his wine glass and drank it.
Then, he ate a few mouthfuls of food and chatted a few empty words.
Kakashi said,
"Sorry, I'm busy with Anbu works. I can't leave my post for too long. I have to go back."
What he did not expect was.
"Of course. Work is the most important. You should go back quickly." Dan was very straightforward and did not hold Kakashi back at all.
Just this?
Kakashi was stunned. He did not understand why Dan asked him to come over.
Could it be that he was thinking too much?
"Then I will take my leave."
As he said this, he stood up in bewilderment and walked towards the door.
However, he had only taken a few steps.
Kakashi felt a strong dizziness and his vision quickly blurred. His whole body swayed a few times before he fell to the ground with a bang.
He fainted.
Seeing this scene.
"Your medicine is really good." Dan looked at Tsunade and praised.
"Of course." Tsunade was not modest at all.
Just now, in the cup of wine that had been poured for Kakashi, it had been mixed with the knockout drug that Tsunade had concocted.
Her knockout drug was colorless and odorless. It had been secretly experimented on to Jiraiya many times before it was developed. Even that guy could not withstand the drug.
Not to mention Kakashi.
"Then let's start quickly. Do you want me to find an operating room for you?" Dan asked.
"There's no need. It's just a small operation." Tsunade flicked her hair and was very confident.
Thus.
She lifted Kakashi up and placed him on the tatami as if he was on an operating table.
Then.
Tsunade walked forward, lifted Kakashi's forehead guard, and used a tool to open his eyelids, revealing Sharingan who could never be closed.
"Speaking of which..."
Before she started, Tsunade could not help but ask, "What's the point of exchanging one Three Tomoe for another?"
She could not understand this.
Dan reply was, "Kakashi's left eye has a special significance to Uchiha clan."
When Tsunade heard this, she no longer asked. She had heard that Kakashi's eyes were given to him by his companions before they died, but she did not know who they were.
She did not care.
Under Dan's gaze.
Tsunade quickly made a series of hand seals, then raised her right hand. A light blue mist chakra wrapped around her entire palm.
Chakra scalpel.
This was a type of medical treatment that was even more complicated than Mystical Palm Technique Ninjutsu. Not only could it be used to save people, it could also hurt people. It was even more precise and sharp than a real scalpel.
It was not difficult to transplant eyes with this technique.
"Doctor Dan, you are too amazing. Even if you are compared to the legendary medical sage, Tsunade, I'm afraid that you are not inferior, or even better."
Dan observed the operation process and started to play tricks again.
Sure enough.
Hearing her name, Tsunade was shocked and her hand trembled. She almost cut off half of Kakashi's face.
After discovering that Dan was just casually saying it.
"You flatter me. How can I be compared to Lord Tsunade? She is the sun and moon in the sky, and I am just a small firefly."
It was rare for Tsunade to be modest on the surface, but in fact, she was still bragging about herself.
For Tsunade, this was indeed a small operation.
In less than ten minutes, the two of them were chatting, and they had already finished changing the eyes.
Dan took the Sharingan from Tsunade, put it into the container, and then put it into the storage scroll.
It was placed together with Shisui's eyes.
This way.
He would collect three Mangekyo.
Whether it was Shisui's Kotoamatsukami or Obito's Kamui, their abilities were too much of a cheat, and they would pose a fatal threat to Dan.
Therefore, these eyes had to be in his hands.
Tsunade cleaned up the blood stains around Kakashi's eyes, put down the forehead guard, and covered it.
"After he wakes up, can he detect anything strange?" Dan asked.
"Don't worry, he won't find anything."
Tsunade patted her chest and promised.
That's good.
Dan Hence, opened the door and called for Itachi to come in again.
"Senior Kakashi, Senior Kakashi..."
A voice called out by his ear, causing Kakashi to slowly open his eyes.
He saw Itachi, Dan, and the others surrounding him.
"I'm... What's wrong?"
Kakashi was still a little dizzy.
"Your alcohol tolerance isn't too good. You'll get drunk after a few glasses."
After teasing Kakashi, he instructed his nephew, "Itachi, send your senior back to have a good rest."
With the help of Itachi, Kakashi walked out of the gym.
"Itachi, you don't have to see me off. I feel much better."
After walking for a while, Kakashi said to Itachi.
After separating from Itachi, he came to the glass window of a roadside shop and opened his forehead guard.
Swish.
Three Tomoe's Sharingan was still in his eyes.
Kakashi reached out to touch it again. He always felt that this eye was different from the previous one, but he could not tell what exactly was different.
Maybe he was really drunk, so he was suspicious here.
Thinking of this.
Kakashi shook his head, put down his forehead guard, and stopped thinking about it.
He took out the middle book of "Icha Icha Paradise".
Soon, he was addicted to it.
Please give this novel 5 stars review and power stone ;)
