Restarting Life: Call Me the Leader of Konoha

A silver figure leaped and shuttled through the woods with mottled shadows of trees.

Kakashi sensed something and stopped on a branch.

"Kakashi, you are...

"Where to?"

Looking at the tall figure in front of him and the half-cat face mask that was revealed when the head was tilted.

Might Guy just felt that this person was both familiar and unfamiliar.

This is the equipment of the Anbu, so Might Guy would definitely recognize it.

But is the silver-haired boy in front of him, carrying a long sword, really the Kakashi he knows?

Might Guy wasn't sure.

"Anbu are not allowed to reveal their names when they are on a mission. You must be aware of this, Kai."

There was not much emotion in the cold tone, which made Might Guy's heart sink.

"Kakashi, are you going on a mission?"

Kakashi turned around helplessly, and seeing that there was no one else nearby, he simply took off his mask.

"Yes, this is my first classified mission in the Anbu."

"Isn't it a bit late to leave now? Otherwise..." Might Guy said with a worried look on his face.

"No, this time is just right. I can catch the last train."

Last shift...what?

Might Guy wisely didn't ask, as this was undoubtedly a confidential part.

But the mission of the Anbu is undoubtedly both dangerous and important.

Looking at the young man in front of him, Might Guy took a deep breath, raised his clenched fist, and then gave Kakashi a thumbs up.

"Come back early, let's have barbecue together!"

Some things don't seem to need to be explained too clearly.

The boy's shining teeth seemed clearer than the moonlight, and Kakashi couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

But behind the mask...

"Okay. Wait for me to come back and have barbecue together."

-----------------

On an old ship.

The silver-haired boy wearing a mask stood on the deck, supporting himself with his hands, staring at the calm waves in a daze.

The Land of Water is a country surrounded by the sea, so the only way to get to the Hidden Mist Village is by ferry.

It is worth mentioning that.

The Water Country is a closed environment, and all external commercial exchanges must pass through this sea area...

As a result, the ferry ticket price is also shockingly high.

If it weren't for the fact that all the expenses incurred by the Anbu missions would be covered by the higher-ups, Kakashi would never have come to the Hidden Mist Village.

Even if I really want to come, I will never take this expensive ship.

If it were a regular ninja mission, I'm afraid the reward wouldn't even be enough to pay for this boat ticket...

Not to mention the most crucial point.

Kakashi has an invisible resistance to Kirigakure.

Just a few months ago, it was Kirigakure's plan that caused the death of his companion Nohara Rin, with whom he had been through thick and thin together, at his hands.

No matter what, I killed Lin...

Kakashi was staring at the sea in front of him in a trance when suddenly he heard a noisy sound from the side of the deck.

A man wearing sunglasses walked towards this side with one hand behind his back. He looked to be a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties.

He didn't seem to have a disability, but he was using a cane. He was short, only half a head taller than Kakashi for an adult.

As he walked, he waved his cane carelessly and scolded the passers-by around him.

"Go, go, go, everyone, please make way for me, don't block the road!"

After saying that, he swung the cane in his hand, and with a "snap" it hit someone's leg.

The man cried out in pain, and blood suddenly seeped out of his gray trouser legs.

This crutch was swung down without mercy!

"Hey! Hehe, sir, please come this way!"

The young man who was hit with the stick not only did not show any displeasure on his face, but he covered his legs and stepped aside, turned around and bent down, with a flattering look on his face.

Kakashi raised his eyebrows and glanced at it with a little curiosity.

Kakashi grew up in the village since he was a child. Although he participated in the Third World War, he has seen big scenes.

However, this person's domineering attitude towards others is relatively rare.

In my impression, even though the Third Hokage had a very high status in the village, he was always kind and friendly to others. How could he not take others seriously like this?

Kakashi subconsciously frowned at the man's bad behavior.

But the man who was beaten didn't resist at all, but looked proud of himself...

"Hey! Boy! Make way."

Someone nearby tugged at Kakashi's arm.

Since entering the public place, Kakashi naturally put on ordinary clothes. After all, the original Anbu attire was too conspicuous and it was hard not to attract attention.

"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?" Kakashi turned around and glanced at the uncle in front of him with his lifeless eyes.

He looks like an uncle, but with his eye covered, he seems a little mysterious.

It's not me who has something wrong, it's you who has something wrong!

The one-eyed uncle slapped his forehead with his hand, looking quite helpless.

Are you a polite person?

Then he pointed at the man with a cane in front of him.

"Little brother, listen to my advice and move aside. Can't you see that someone is coming this way? If you block the road like this, something bad will happen!"

Facing this kind advice, Kakashi waved his hand and said, "It's okay. Look, there are others blocking the way ahead. It's not my turn yet."

"Hey! You're really stubborn, kid."

The one-eyed uncle put on a sneer, as if waiting to see a joke, and said sarcastically: "That man is Cardo, one of the richest men in the world!"

"I seem to have heard of it somewhere...

"But I don't know him." Kakashi spread his hands and said.

"..."

The young man was speechless.

how?

Is there anyone in this sea area who is unaware of the significance of the name "Cado"?

It would be fine if ordinary people didn't know this, but he knew very well how insidious Cardo was.

Not only does he secretly smuggle various dangerous goods, he also has a large number of mafia and ninjas working for him.

In terms of the degree of danger, it is second to none in this sea area.

As he was speaking, the man with the cane named Cardo was already walking closer to this side.

"Hey, little brother, I'm doing this for your own good..."

As he spoke, the old man with a worried look on his face grabbed Kakashi's thin shoulders with both hands and pulled him back.

Oh, who would think I am kind-hearted?

How can we bear to see a child like this suffer?

This world is full of people who enjoy watching a good show. There are not many people like me, your uncle!

The thought flashed through his mind in an instant, but the force from his hands was like a stone sinking into the sea, unable to stir up any waves...

So... so heavy!

Damn it!

Could this kid be the old monster from that ninja village?

Kakashi didn't move, just glanced up at him in confusion and scratched his head.

The two looked at each other, both with a confused look in their eyes.

Just then, a voice came from the side.

"Hey, this girl is also going to the Land of Waves? How about..."
