Hokage: To Meet You

Chapter 35 Atonement ([-])
"You really don't remember me," Kakashi let go of Xiaoyou in frustration after hearing Xiaoyou's words, lowered his head, and said to himself, "It's all my fault that I didn't protect you so that you lost your memory. It’s useless, it was like this before, and it’s still like this now, I thought I had enough power to protect you but now... no, I have to work harder to make myself stronger and protect you,” Kakashi fiercely She raised her head, looked at Xiaoyou firmly, and said, "Xiaoyou, you must believe me!"

"I believe you," Xiaoyou nodded with a smile, not knowing why she felt familiar with him.

"Okay, Kakashi, it's time for us to go out and go on a mission," Obito on the side couldn't help urging.

"Why are you urging? Yuu just woke up and lost her memory, she needs someone to take care of her," Kakashi said, staring at Obito Uchiha dissatisfied.

"Let her go together, we are a group, and we should go on missions together," Uchiha Obito said indifferently.

"No, Yuu is too weak to travel far," Kakashi retorted with a cold glance at Obito Uchiha, and looked at Yuu worriedly.

"It's okay, I'm much better now, let's go on a mission together," Xiaoyou looked at Kakashi brightly, and said expectantly.

"Are... are you really okay? Or do you want to rest for a while before setting off?" Kakashi looked at Xiaoyu and asked worriedly.

"I'm really fine, let's go," Xiaoyou lifted the quilt and jumped out of the bed, said energetically, pulled Kakashi and Uchiha Obito and ran outside, the three of them soon came to the outside of the village Gather with Namikaze Minato and Nohara Rin who were waiting there.

"Xiao Yu, are you in good health?" Namikaze Minato asked concerned.

"You are?" Xiaoyu blinked, stared innocently at Minato Namikaze, and asked.

"Teacher, Xiaoyou doesn't remember the past, it's better not to let Xiaoyou participate in this mission, let her rest more," Kakashi spoke for Xiaoyou.

"Don't remember the past? But why can't you remember it in one night?" Namikaze Minato frowned and said.

"Teacher, we don't know why? But I don't agree with Kakashi's words. Xiaoyou lost her previous memory inexplicably. It is more dangerous to let her stay here alone. Isn't it more convenient to protect her by staying with her?" ?” Obito Uchiha disagreed with Kakashi’s words and retorted.

"Obito is right. Fortunately, this mission is not very difficult. Let Xiaoyu follow, let's go," Namakaze Minato said with a gentle smile, leading the way, Uchiha Obito followed closely, Kakashi, who had always been walking in front, fell behind in order to take care of Yuu, and Rin Nohara followed Kakashi dejectedly.

After walking for about half an hour, Xiaoyou's enthusiasm has faded, and his pace has obviously slowed down a lot. Xiaoyou's feet are so sore that he can't walk anymore, but he doesn't want to hold everyone back, so he reluctantly continues to go. Going forward, Kakashi has been paying attention to Xiaoyu and felt Xiaoyu's fatigue, and asked aloud: "Xiaoyu, are you tired?"

When Xiaoyou saw Kakashi asking himself, he immediately pouted and said aggrievedly, "Well, my feet are so sore."

"I'll go behind your back," Kakashi said, unable to bear Xiaoyou's foot pain.

Yuu nodded immediately after hearing what Kakashi said, and happily jumped behind Kakashi in three steps and two steps. Kakashi immediately squatted down, and Yuu immediately put his arms around Kakashi's neck, Jumping on Kakashi's back, Kakashi stretched out his hands to hold Xiaoyu tightly on his back and continued to walk forward. Rin Nohara, who was behind her, was saddened to see the intimate conversation ahead.

Yuu hugged Kakashi's neck tightly, looked around curiously and asked, "Kakashi, where are we going now?"

"We're going on a mission to the Sand Country," Kakashi replied.

"Oh!" Xiaoyou responded obediently, and didn't ask any more questions, just leaned on Kakashi's back meekly, closed his eyes, and fell asleep from exhaustion.

Suddenly, Namikaze Minato received an urgent mission, and they had to go back to Konoha Ninja Village. Kakashi was worried about Xiaoyu's safety, so he sent Xiaoyu home first, and told her to stay at home obediently before leaving to carry out the mission .
