The blind swordsman selling pots in Konoha

A person's ambition will increase as his strength increases, and will weaken as his strength weakens.

So is ambition.

If the third generation had not changed his attitude towards equipment, Shaz would never have said that to the third generation, because he was too old and lacked ambition, and it would be in vain to say it.

But now there have been some subtle changes in the situation, and the third generation's ambition has been rekindled. This can be seen from the fact that he calmly faced Shaz's ridicule before and even laughed at himself.

"What did our great Third Generation talk to you about again?" Shaz asked after waiting for Kakashi on the first floor of the Hokage Building.

"Sandaime-sama said that you are a little naughty boy who can act according to the circumstances and say whatever he wants to meet anyone."

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Thirdai, for me. This is an essential skill for a qualified businessman!"

Kakashi rolled his eyes. I'm afraid only you would take this as a compliment.

"How about we go have a drink together?" Shaz suggested.

"Oh? Why do you want to drink suddenly?"

"Because I said what I always wanted to say, I feel much better... and I feel a long-lost safety."

Is that right?

Kakashi walked forward thoughtfully.

"Let's go, I know a place with a good environment...are you old enough?" Kakashi suddenly reacted.

Shaz grinned: "Just right~"

…………

"By the way, what kind of god is enshrined in the place where you prayed? It's quite effective. I'll build a shrine in the store later."

Shaz asked after ordering drinks and food.

Kakashi is completely helpless, forget it you didn't know before you prayed, but after you prayed and it was effective, you didn't even notice.

"It's not a god enshrined. It's a place where the village prays for blessings on major festivals. If I have to say...it's the will of fire that is enshrined." Kakashi explained.

"Is that so?"

Shaz thought for a moment.

"Then I will go back and put the photos of the third generation in the shrine...and the second generation and the first generation."

Kakashi:  …

Sandai will beat you to death!

The wine and food were served on the table, and Shaz and Kakashi drank slowly from a small wine bottle each.

Because the alcohol content of sake is not high, you can drink it as much as you want. If you drink it for a long time, you will end up... very drunk!

It's like boiling a frog in warm water. By the time you feel drunk, it's too late.

It was also when he was almost done drinking that Shaz could no longer control his curiosity.

"You wear a mask every day, what's so shameful about it?"

The half-drunk Shaz also habitually used tactics to provoke the generals.

"Nothing...but what's under your blindfold?"

As soon as he asked, Kakashi immediately regretted it.

"Do you think Naruto can pass the second exam successfully?" Kakashi asked, changing the subject.

"Whether he passes the exam or not is his own business. Let's talk about our business. I want to make a deal with you."

Kakashi was half sober in an instant.

"What deal?" Kakashi asked warily.

"I take off the blindfold, you take off the mask!"

After picking his ears, Kakashi felt relieved when Shaz repeated it again to confirm that he heard correctly.

"What did I think...I'm fine."

Seeing that Kakashi agreed, Shaz didn't say anything else and directly started to untie the forehead protection ribbon, and then untied the mask.

"You... aren't your eyes intact?!"

Kakashi's eyes suddenly widened.

This guy is really pretending to be blind!

Shaz pointed to his eyes: "Look at my pupils, have they changed? Or can you observe them for a while longer?"

Kakashi observed for a while before confirming that, as Shaz himself said, no matter how he shook his finger, Shaz's pupils did not change.

"Since your eyeballs are intact... have you considered getting a new pair?"

Shaz shook his head.

"I've been to the hospital, and they said I have a problem with the optic nerve behind my eyeball, and that eye replacement won't work."

Kakashi was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled.

"So visual illusions won't work on you, right? And since you are very sensitive to chakra, phantom and chakra-interfering illusions should have little effect on you."

Shaz nodded: "Yes, but unfortunately I am not immune to illusions that directly affect the mental level... I am not immune to Sister Hong's trick... Her trick seems to be a mixture of multiple attributes."

"There are not many spiritual illusions. Most of them interfere with chakra and phantoms. Just be content." Kakashi said.

Shaz nodded and respected Kakashi, but actually he felt really bad inside.

There are indeed not many spiritual illusions, but the most powerful illusions that can be counted are all spiritual ones!

The damage to the optic nerve and the ability to see through chakra can at best avoid capsizing in the gutter, but one has to rely on one's own mental strength to fight against top illusions.

Or you can be aggressive and at the same time help a large amount of chakra to spread around the body. While disturbing your own chakra, you can form a chakra shield outside your body to prevent other people's chakra from continuously interfering with you.

Just like the last competition between Shaz and Hong, they used several prongs to break the situation violently, but it was a bit wasteful of chakra.

"Sigh... Sharingan is better, but unfortunately I will still be blind even if I put on Sharingan..."

Shaz, who was sighing with emotion, was suddenly stunned.

Kakashi patted Shaz and pushed the forehead protector away from his face to reveal his left eye.

"Actually, it's not as powerful as you think. As a non-Uchiha clan member, it consumes my chakra all the time. You should understand the impact this has on ninjas, right?"

Shaz nodded in understanding and continued drinking.

However, inside, Shaz was not at all calm.

"Yes, I just wanted to see the light again, but I ignored it. Even if it can't let me see the light again, its ability can still help me!"

"Not only that, the Mangekyō Sharingan is known as the eye of spiritual reflection. Maybe I can see the light in another way through the power of the Mangekyō!"

Thinking of this, Shaz clenched his fists excitedly.

But within half a second, Shaz's expression suddenly turned from sunny to rainy.

"But I'm not an Uchiha! I can't open a kaleidoscope!!!"

"Cao Dan's Otsutsuki clan!"

Bang!

Shaz slammed the table hard, startling Kakashi and also startling other people who were drinking in the store.

A few drunkards wanted to get up with bad looks in their eyes, but they instantly gave up after seeing Kakashi's even more bad eyes.

After taking a swig of wine, Shaz finally stabilized temporarily after taking several deep breaths.

"I'm sorry, I lost my temper."

Kakashi waved his hand to indicate that he didn't have to worry about it. He thought Shaz lost his temper because of his eyes... although it was almost the same.

At this moment, a masked ANBU suddenly appeared next to Kakashi and whispered a few words to Kakashi.

Kakashi stared at the ANBU and nodded.

"I have to go, something happened." Kakashi stood up: "By the way, since your eyeballs are intact... wouldn't it be better if you didn't wear the eyepatch? Strangers will definitely not be able to tell."

"What's the point of deceiving yourself? Besides, people's pupils don't change when you look at them. It's not good to scare many people." Shaz took another sip.

"Isn't it okay that even the Hyuga clan can't see the pupils?"

After saying that, Kakashi disappeared with the ANBU, but Shaz was stunned.

After a while, Shaz came back to his senses and patted his head.

"I seem to have forgotten something..."

"What did I forget..."

"That's right! Mask! Kakashi's mask!"
