Konoha, who was originally calm, has some strange rumors suddenly.
Konoha's Elite Jōnin, Hatake Kakashi failed to complete an S-rank mission, causing the village to suffer huge losses.
It also made the relationship between Konoha and Kirigakure extremely bad, and war is likely to break out.
In an instant, the suspicion of war suddenly spread throughout the village of Konoha.
Although the Godaime Hokage quickly suppressed the news, the rumors quickly spread to the ears of all of the villagers.
And more and more people know about this.
For a while, the news "Hatake Kakashi failed in a mission" to become a hot topic during the villagers' dinner.
Some people can even tell the process of Kakashi's failure vividly. As for whether it is true or not, anyone with a little bit of judgment would know.
Unfortunately, there are not many such people in this world.
Most people just agree with the others, and believe whatever they say.
It's not that they are not incapable of thinking, they're just not willing to think.
Many people seek the truth, but the truth is not accepted by everyone.
More people are concerned about whether the process is exciting and whether they can have fun from it.
This is human nature.
The original Konoha's Hero seemed to become a question mark in an instant.
Can someone who brought losses to the village be called Konoha's Hero?
It is always best to fool those kinds of people.
Just by making a few stories and said that it is from the so-called insiders, everything would seem to be true. And there are a lot of people who are willing to believe this.
A mortal becomes a Hero, and a Hero falls from the pedestal. In fact, more people want to see the latter.
For many people, it is a strange pleasure to step on someone who they once looked up.
They can read their so-called crimes from the commanding heights of morality. At that moment, they are like "God."
For a while, Kakashi was pushed to the cusp of the storm.
Just like the White Fang at that time.
Of course, it has not yet reached that bad.
After all, this is not a time of war, and there are no so-called casualties.
It's just that Kakashi's good reputation over the years seems to have collapsed a lot overnight.
Of course, this only refers to among civilians.
Among the Shinobi, many of them smell a hint of conspiracy.
Failed missions are simply commonplace for Shinobi.
No one has a success rate of 100%.
Moreover, the content of the mission has always been confidential.
For it to be leaked out like this has a big problem in itself.
There are quite a few Shinobi clans are feeling the sense of deja vu.
In the Hokage Office, Tsunade punched the desk in front of her with a look of anger!
Seeing this, Shizune, who was on the side, was startled.
"Tsunade-sama..." Shizune whispered.
"I'm fine. Danzo, do you want to repeat the same trick again?" Tsunade's face was full of anger.
Compared to Tsunade, who was angry, Kakashi was much calmer.
Because he is worrying about another thing at this time.
In his house, Kakashi touched his forehead, and there was a strange mark on it.
"Is this... Puppet Curse?"
Kakashi was a little confused, 'Why was this thing suddenly appeared on my body?'
It doesn't seem to appear out of thin air as it has been hidden in his body for many years.
It was not discovered before because it was not activated yet.
The Puppet Curse that was not activated would not have any fluctuations, so even Kakashi didn't notice it.
But today is different.
Kakashi was suddenly awakened by the Puppet Curse while he was asleep, and a memory also flooded into his mind.
That was not long after Sharingan's transplantation.
A Konoha's missing-nin named Hiruko met him and gave him this Puppet Curse.
It's just that Kakashi's memory about this matter was blocked by the Puppet Curse all this time and only emerged now.
"It seems that another troublesome guy has appeared. But why at this time?"
Kakashi shook his head helplessly and put on his forehead protector again.
Kakashi would naturally not take a little Puppet Curse to heart.
'But if I wanted to get rid of this Puppet Curse, I am afraid that I still need to find that Hiruko guy.'
But there is no need to worry about it. Even if Kakashi does not go looking for Hiruko, that Hiruko will come sooner or later.
After Kakashi finished cleaning, the door of his house was knocked.
"Kakashi-sensei! Kakashi-sensei, are you there!"
The voice is very loud, at the same time, it also sounded very anxious, and Kakashi is very familiar with this voice.
The owner of this voice is naturally Naruto.
Kakashi was a little confused as to why Naruto was so anxious to find him, so he went to open the door.
After the door was opened, Kakashi was slightly surprised.
There is not only Naruto outside the door, but also Sasuke Sakura, Karin and Jūgo.
All five of them were standing at the door at this time with a worried expression on their faces.
"What are you guys doing here?"
"Kakashi-sensei, have you heard about the rumors in the village?" Sasuke asked.
"Rumor? Oh? The one about my mission failure?" Kakashi thought for a while and said.
"Kakashi-sensei, if you know it, why are you still so calm?" Naruto asked in confusion.
Kakashi smiled calmly and said, "What can I do if I am not calm? Can I solve the problem if I was anxious?"
"But..." Naruto wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say it.
"Kakashi-nii, they are slandering you! You have to refute them! Tell them that you are not what they think!"
This morning Karin originally went out to buy breakfast, but she heard a lot of people saying bad things about Kakashi.
This made Karin very upset, and almost got into a fight with them.
Fortunately, there is Jūgo there to stop her.
Otherwise, Karin will not be here at this time, but at the police station.
"Karin, in fact, part of what they said is not wrong, I really failed the mission." Kakashi said with a smile.
"Kakashi-nii! You are not to blame for this. Who has never failed the mission? They are slandering you." Karin argued.
It feels like she is the person who is being slandered, and Kakashi is just a passer-by.
"Well, you don't have to worry about this, I will take care of it." Kakashi said with a smile.
Seeing Kakashi said so, everyone's worry was eased.
They all grew up watching Kakashi so they naturally believed in Kakashi's abilities.
Seeing everyone was relieved, Kakashi smiled faintly.
However, he has different ideas in his mind.
"I didn't expect the rumors have already spread to such an extent. Danzo is really proficient with this kind of thing. However, this should only be the beginning."
