Chapter 39 The Fourth Hokage
After two days of rest, Xia Yan woke up on time again on the day the vacation ended.

The two-day vacation is actually quite boring for Xia Yan. Although he doesn't have any symptoms of being uncomfortable with the vacation, it is obviously not suitable for his Anbu identity to relax completely.

The discussion with Kakashi can only be regarded as a flavoring agent, but this time the discussion can be regarded as making up for the loopholes Kakashi made and his own identity.

"At least, you don't need to worry about people asking me what I have been doing all these years."

Standing in front of the mirror, Xia Yan was thinking secretly while washing up.

In fact, there are many problems with his identity. For example, where he went after leaving school at the age of eight is very doubtful.

Xia Yan is not Kakashi, he dare not reveal his Anbu's identity, especially since he is a descendant of the Senshou clan, there are more serious problems in this.

But now, these problems have been solved to some extent, even if the solution is not perfect.

Kakashi may be really not used to calling himself by his name, and Xia Yan simply used Kakashi by mistake to fill the vacancy that he has been 'missing' for these years.

Show off your strength a little bit through a sparring session, at least be worthy of Kakashi's 'captain'.

At that time, he can completely say that he has been on the battlefield, and he has formed a team with Kakashi to complete the mission together.

After tidying up his appearance thoroughly, Xia Yan put on the mask again, and then walked out of the room directly.

However, the direction of his departure today is not Anbu's residence, but the Hokage Building. He has not forgotten that he is going to meet the Fourth Hokage today.

For today's meeting, Xia Yan has been waiting for two full days, even though he knows that today's meeting will not have too many substantive things.

But he can confirm some things, and can even judge many things that will follow from today's meeting.

"Hopefully it will be a good outcome"

Xia Yan thought silently, and soon he entered the Hokage Building.

The Hokage Building may be the most symbolic landmark building in Konoha other than Hokage Rock, and it doesn’t seem to be that big at all from a distance.

But after actually entering it, I realized that this place really deserves to be the core hub of Konoha's power.

There are many offices here, even Konoha's most important department - the Ministry of Government Affairs is in the Hokage Building.

And Xia Yan also knew that there was a large conference room in the Hokage Building that could accommodate hundreds of people.

He once performed a garrison mission in that huge conference room, and he will never forget how magnificent that place is.

Silently walked towards the top floor of the building, where Hokage's office was.

After some inspections, Xia Yan did not experience any embarrassment. It may be because he had greeted him in advance, or it may be because of his identity as Anbu, so he entered the office smoothly.

"Lord Hokage."

Looking at Namikaze Minato sitting in front of the desk, Xia Yan respectfully bowed slightly.

"Xia Yanjun, hello." Namikaze Minato raised his head with a gentle smile on his face.

Seeing is worth seeing, Xia Yan has to admit that this Minato Namakaze, known as the 'little sun', does have the warmth of the sun.

This kind of affinity has never been seen by Xia Yan in the third generation of Hokage, but it is a pity.
"Master Hokage, just call me Nightingale." Xia Yan felt a little emotional in his heart, but he still said cautiously: "Members of Anbu, it's best not to reveal your real information."

"Sorry sorry, it's my problem."

Namikaze Minato admitted his mistake without the slightest hesitation, and it seemed that he had no airs at all.

"Then, Nightingale, the main reason for meeting you this time is to thank you for everything you have done for Kakashi."

He stood up and looked at Xia Yan sincerely, without the slightest affectation.

"Kakashi is my disciple, and now my only disciple. As for the others"

Speaking of this, he suddenly sighed slightly and stopped talking. In fact, even if he stopped talking, Xia Yan would understand very well.

I am afraid that there are not many younger generations who met Konoha and Kakashi who did not know what happened to Kakashi.

And Namikaze Minato is so young, and has been in Konoha from the beginning to the end, he really doesn't have many disciples, and the only disciple is the Minato class back then.

Now there is only Kakashi left in the Minato class, and everyone knows how bad Kakashi was in the past.

That look like a walking dead, and the indifferent attitude like Zhenbing, all seem to tell that this genius of the year has completely fallen into darkness.

Namikaze Minato also sent him to Anbu with the mentality of trying, hoping that through the many tasks of Anbu, Kakashi would have no time to indulge in the past.

I also hope that through Anbu's rules, Kakashi can adapt to everything before.

However, he really didn't expect that how long after Kakashi was assigned to Xia Yan's team, this former classmate of Kakashi actually made Kakashi improve!

This kind of improvement is fundamental, even if Kakashi has not completely recovered to the state of a normal person now, but he has also transformed into a normal person.

"In short, thank you, Nightingale." Namakaze Minato took a deep breath, then stood up and said seriously: "If it weren't for you, I don't know what Kakashi would have become."

"You're welcome, Hokage-sama." Xia Yan shook his head slightly, his tone was unusually modest and gentle: "Kakashi was my former classmate and also my teammate, and I don't want him to be in that state either. This is what I should do."

"That's what I said, but I still decided to give you some rewards." Namakaze Minato showed a smile: "I heard from Kakashi that you want to learn the sealing technique, right?"

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Xia Yan lowered his head slightly, and a smile appeared on his face hidden under the mask.

It seems that the effect of this meeting is much better than what I actually thought.

It's not surprising that Namikaze Minato knew that he wanted to seal it, because Kakashi would definitely report these things to him.

Now that Xia Yan has received such an inquiry, he doesn't need to guess what will happen next.

However, the conversation between the two of them was still very formulaic up to this point, nothing else was involved at all, and Minato Namikaze didn't even ask about the underground laboratory.

Xia Yan speculated that it might be that Namikaze Minato felt that he didn't know anything, it might be because he felt that his level could not be joined, or it might be that he couldn't ask freely yet.

But Xia Yan didn't care, because he felt that the matter might not be over yet.

Anbu is one of the most important power components of a shadow, but the orders they get are rarely issued by the Fourth Hokage.

Not only that, even when Namakaze Minato and Xia Yan met in private, these Anbu are still 'fulfilling their duties'.

Things like this are really intriguing.
