I, who was determined to stay in Naruto, became the white moonlight

Uchiha Obito arrived before he even made a sound, causing Nohara Rin and Haruko to look in their direction.

Hatake Kakashi also quickened his pace, and stopped in front of Haruko at the same time as Uchiha Obito. He asked first: "How do you feel?"

Uchiha Obito was a thick-skinned man who didn't realize his difference. He continued, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Or uncomfortable? Or..."

"I'm fine, very fine." Haruko interrupted him helplessly.

Uchiha Obito didn't believe it and wanted to check her injuries, but before he could touch her, he was grabbed by Nohara Rin who was protecting Haruko.

Under Uchiha Obito's confused expression, Nohara Lin smiled and said, "I have checked, Haruko is recovering well."

"Really..." Uchiha Obito withdrew his hand embarrassedly.

He couldn't help but mutter in his heart: Why is Lin smiling so strangely? It seems the same as usual, but also a little different. Am I really overthinking it?

Kakashi Hatake, who was standing next to him, was keenly aware that Nohara Rin had become much stronger than before.

Namikaze Minato called out to them, "Okay, don't disturb Haruko's rest, come here and let's discuss the battle plan."

Although a little worried, Nohara Rin and Uchiha Obito still followed Minato Namikaze's words and went to his side.

Seeing that Hatake Kakashi didn't move, Uchiha Obito waved at him, "Let's go, Kakashi."

"You guys go first, I have something to say to Haruko." Kakashi Hatake glanced at Haruko who was looking at him in confusion.

His eyes swung back and forth between the two of them. Uchiha Obito felt a little unhappy, but after receiving Haruko's agreeing gaze, he finally left first.

Before Hatake Kakashi could speak, Haruko first became concerned about his left eye which was wrapped in thick bandages.

"Is the eye seriously injured?"

Hatake Kakashi leaned forward and squatted, replying to her slowly, "It's not serious, but damage to your vision is inevitable."

"Can you open it and let me see it?"

Kakashi Hatake didn't ask her what she was going to do. He just started to remove the bandages quickly and efficiently. Circles of white bandages fell as he moved. The more bandages he removed, the more blood-stained the bandages inside became.

Still a child...

Haruko couldn't help showing heartache in her eyes. Although she had witnessed the cruelty of war, when this cruelty befell the people around her, the melancholy and loss that rushed over her became even stronger.

When all the bandages were removed, the long and terrifying scar on Kakashi Hatake's left eye fell into her eyes.

Haruko forced a smile at him, "Don't be afraid Kakashi, it will stop hurting soon."

She raised her hand and gently stroked Hatake Kakashi's left eye. A bright green light radiated, slowly and slowly repairing his nerves.

Hatake Kakashi just watched her quietly as she focused on the treatment, suppressing his unnoticed emotions that were like the mountain breeze blowing across the green fields.

Perhaps he himself did not even notice that every time he looked at her, the look in his eyes became more intense as he got closer and closer.

"Okay." The green in Haruko's hand gradually faded, and she gently rubbed the corner of his eye before retracting it. "Although the scar cannot be removed for a while, you can go back to find Tsunade."

Haruko thought he would ask her how she suddenly knew medical skills, and she even thought of an excuse, saying that Tsunade taught her, but Hatake Kakashi didn't ask anything and just thanked her briefly.

Hatake Kakashi tentatively opened his left eye, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he looked at her with a deep gaze, "Obito... do you need me to keep it a secret?"

Haruko was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was referring to the secret technique she used to resurrect Uchiha Obito, and she felt relieved and moved.

Kakashi has unknowingly ceased to be the cold child he used to be.

Although he became a guy with questionable professional ethics when he grew up, he was still quite considerate and reliable when he was a child.

"It turns out Kakashi trusts me so much!" Haruko teased him.

Hatake Kakashi replied calmly: "Relationships between people should be based on equality."

Equal? ​​Does it mean that she trusts him, so Kakashi will give her the same trust?

Haruko smiled slightly. Did she melt an ice cube?

"However, there are exceptions."

Hatake Kakashi stood up and glanced at her cryptically before leaving.

In that glance, there flowed the quiet and dim stars and the silent and surging current.

Before Haruko could investigate further, Hatake Kakashi had already closed his eyes and turned away.

Haruko was left feeling the lingering throbbing after holding her breath. She couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. She... seemed to have seen this kind of eyes somewhere else.

The exception to this is relationships between people?

What kind of relationship is not equal?

Haruko thought distressedly.

……

After resting, they separated from Minato Namikaze again to complete the mission.

With the experience of the previous battle, their actual cooperation became more tacit, but obviously this did not include Haruko who had recovered her memory.

Kakashi Hatake narrowly defeated the enemy, turned around and was stunned when he saw Haruko beheading the swarming enemies with a single white line.

Each of her moves was powerful and forceful. Attacking, dodging, and sneaking, no movement was superfluous. The intricate kimono she was wearing transformed into a butterfly that danced lightly and fiercely, not giving the enemy any chance to react.

He doesn't look like a newcomer on the battlefield at all, but rather like a brave warrior who has been on the battlefield for a long time.

Almost all enemies around her were swept away by her tenacity. The enemies that arrived later were shaken when they saw her calmly and wantonly reaping lives, but they did not have more time to think, as the white blood had already stuck to their throats, splattering scarlet blood.

This made Kakashi Hatake reflect: could it be that the enemies the three of them were facing were deliberately let loose by her to train them?

On the other side, Nohara Rin and Uchiha Obito, who had just defeated the enemy, were stunned when they saw Haruko seemed to have become a different person in the battle scene.

"Is that... Haruko?" Nohara Lin asked uncertainly.

"Probably..." Uchiha Obito answered uncertainly.

After clearing all the enemies, Haruko's clothes were only stained with a little blood. She waved to Hatake Kakashi nonchalantly and said, "Start blowing up the bridge."

Hatake Kakashi subconsciously followed her instructions and took out the detonating tags and distributed them to the other two. It was not until the Kannabi Bridge, which symbolized the mission target, collapsed with a loud bang and burst into flames that he belatedly remembered -

It seems that he is the captain this time?

The destruction of the Kannabi Bridge successfully cut off the supply of the Iwagakure Village and helped Konoha gain an advantage on the battlefield.

However, both sides suffered heavy losses, and Konoha did not have enough resources and manpower to devote to the war again. The top leaders discussed and decided to sign a peace agreement with the Iwagakure Village to buy Konoha a respite and recover. At the same time, in order to suppress objections in the village, the Third Hokage resigned.

Unsung heroes exchanged their blood and lives for peace, and many heroes became famous because of this war.

During the mission at Kannobi Bridge, Minato Namikaze galloped across the battlefield, appearing and disappearing like ghosts, killing people without anyone noticing. He single-handedly changed the situation of the battle with the Iwagakure Village, and the name "Yellow Flash" was once again made famous.

And his apprentices - Uchiha Obito, who opened the two magatama Sharingan, and Hatake Kakashi, who inherited the will of Konoha White Fang, fought together on the battlefield, completed key tasks, and accumulated considerable prestige for Namikaze Minato.

It was drizzling and overcast, creating a quiet atmosphere for the memorial.

Everyone stood solemnly in front, silently mourning for the heroes who died on the battlefield.

As a member of Minato Namikaze's team, Haruko stood with the three little ones. After the mourning was over, she and Uchiha Obito returned to the Uchiha clan.

"…Itachi? Why are you here?"

Haruko looked surprised. She didn't expect to see the unexpected figure of Uchiha Itachi here.
