Naruto: The Super Powerful - Passionate as Water

Chapter 57 Hatake Sakumo’s decision

Naruto Office.

The third generation sat on the chair and saw Hatake Sakumo standing in front of the table. There was a complicated look in his eyes. After a long time, he said: "Sakumo, don't take it to heart what the villagers say. The failure of the mission is not nothing." It's going well, otherwise, you'd better go home and rest for a while, and I'll think of a solution for you."

Hatake Sakumo was covered in injuries, his clothes were torn, his mental state was depressed, and he had lost at least ten pounds. He seemed to be like a seriously ill person, no longer the scornful son of Konoha's murderous god.

"Thank you, Hokage-sama. I'm sorry to everyone." Hatake Sakumo turned his head and walked a few steps, opened the door, and suddenly stopped and said, "If Hokage-sama feels embarrassed, I am willing to accept any punishment."

After that, close the door.

The Third Hokage smoked his pipe with a sad look on his face, rubbed his temples, raised his head and muttered helplessly: "Sakumo, I'm afraid I'm going to let you down this time."

Thanks to the efforts of two generations of Sakumo and his father, the Hatake family finally entered the ranks of the middle clan. Although it is far from those wealthy families with strong foundations, because of his existence, even those wealthy families are better. Please him.

Of course, because of his style and character, he would offend many people intentionally or unintentionally. Especially in the past few years when he became the ANBU minister, he took countless scapegoats for the Third Generation and Danzo.

This made him, who was originally not popular, almost become a demon-like existence. Not only were people from other countries afraid of him, but even the ninjas of Konoha were afraid of him.

He made great contributions to Konoha, but he did it as a masked ANBU. No one knew that the person who saved everyone's lives countless times was Hatake Sakumo, but these contributions were attributed to the Hokage.

Hatake Sakumo naturally has his own considerations, he is not alone, there is a family behind him, and he also has a son who is even better than him.

He could live in obscurity for the rest of his life, being an ANBU who kills without batting an eye and hiding from the light, but he didn't want his son to make the same mistake again.

So he hoped that from darkness to light, Konoha could give him a clear name, thereby reviving his Hatake family, so that his son could pat his chest and tell others loudly who his father was and what heroic deeds he had done.

Rather than having to say it secretly at home every time, he didn't even dare to speak louder, which made him feel extremely depressed.

But unfortunately, Hatake Sakumo chose the wrong time. He passed on this idea to the third generation who thought he admired him, but it also laid the foundation for his today.

Because the next period of time is the time when the Fourth Hokage is about to be born. The Third Hokage wants to firmly control the position of the Fourth Hokage in the hands of his own lineage, and Hatake, who is super strong and unwilling to become a shadow, Sakumo was about to step onto the stage, which was obviously intolerable to the third generation.

The third generation suddenly defined Hatake Sakumo as a careerist, thinking that he wanted to get involved in the position of Hokage. Of course, this possibility was very small, but the third generation's attitude towards him suddenly became completely indifferent.

At the same time, another person, Danzo, played a key role in this process. He also hoped that White Fang would die so that he could seize the part of Anbu quota in his hands.

So he had this weird mission, and at the same time he was able to mobilize public opinion in the village and make Hatake Sakumo miserable.

It's like when he does good deeds, others don't know his name and calls him an unsung hero. But that day he accidentally makes a mistake, and everyone in the world suddenly knows that a bastard like him exists, and they all rally together. Attack it.

When Hatake Sakumo returned to the family, he obviously felt that the other members of the family were looking at him with cold faces, and even secretly scolding him.

Dragging heavy steps, Sakumo returned to his room and knelt in front of his father's photo. He knelt there all night. This night he thought a lot and figured out a lot of things.

Another day passed without a drop of water, and an ANBU quietly sneaked into Sakumo's home and handed him a letter.

"The Hatake family is safe by hanging themselves." With just a few words, Hatake Sakumo already understood the final decision of Konoha's top management. It had the special seals of the Third Generation and Danzo on it. Only those who were doing secret missions would seal it. No leaks allowed.

"Father" Kakashi's voice sounded outside the door.

Hatake Sakumo squeezed his hand, and the envelope in his hand suddenly shattered into powder. He stood up, opened the door, and let his son in.

"Father, is the news true?" Kakashi looked at the back of his father, the greatest hero in his mind, with disbelief.

"Yes, I am the loser who doesn't follow the ninja rules." Hatake Sakumo said calmly, as if he was explaining a very ordinary thing.

"No, Father, you have taught me that a ninja who does not abide by ninja rules is a waste, and a ninja who does not value his companions is a waste among wastes." Hatake Kakashi swore loudly.

Hatake Sakumo knelt down and touched Kakashi's hair. Two lines of hot tears flowed from his eyes, and he hugged Kakashi to his chest.

Then, Hatake Sakumo seemed to have made a decision, stood up and said: "Son, you have always been the best genius in dad's mind, and dad is proud of you."

After saying that, he opened the door and walked out.

"Father" Kakashi shouted behind Hatake Sakumo with tears in his eyes.

Hatake Sakumo turned around, looked at Kakashi with a smile, and then disappeared from the place with a teleportation technique.

Kakashi stood there for a long time, and finally knelt down with his legs, making a fist with his right hand and hitting the floor hard.

In the most luxurious villa in Konoha Village, Ji Tengchuan has been sitting quietly on the pavilion, making tea, as if waiting for someone to arrive.

"You're here," Ji Tengchuan suddenly said.

"You seem to know I'm coming." A figure came out of the shadows and asked curiously.

Ji Tengchuan shook his head and said, "I don't know, it's just a feeling. I can sit here and wait for you for three days and three nights."

The figure walked out and it was Hatake Sakumo. He knelt down in front of Ji Tengchuan, picked up the cup on the table and drank a cup of hot tea.

"Wait for me for three days and three nights" Hatake Sakumo asked curiously, and then suddenly said: "Do you know about me?"

"I know something, I think the top management of Konoha must have made some kind of deal with you." Ji Tengchuan knew what Sakumo wanted to ask and answered directly.

"Yes, my death will protect the Hatake family." Hatake Sakumo said calmly.

"Sure enough," Ji Tengchuan verified his idea. In the original work, Shuomao died so cowardly. Is it really just a rumor?

The psychological defense of Konoha White Fang is too weak, how could he become a being like the God of Death?

"Since you came to me, it means that you can't fully trust the guarantee of the third generation, right?" Ji Tengchuan said with a smile. He believed that Hatake Sakumo was definitely not the kind of idiot who only knew how to kill. You should be able to figure out the root causes of many problems.

"Yes, I must protect my son, even if he dies. But it's really hard for me to trust him anymore, Sandai." Hatake Sakumo will no longer put his son's life on a politician like Sandai. This was the first time he spoke ill of the third generation.

"Haha, that's good. I have never trusted him, Shu Mao. I feel worthless for you." Ji Tengchuan said regretfully.

Ji Tengchuan is also very conflicted at the moment. He can save Hatake Sakumo. The operation is very complicated, and he will confront Sandai and the others head-on. Moreover, Sakumo's character is destined to be difficult to be his partner, so Very not worth it.

But at the same time, he admired Hatake Sakumo's character, so he left it all to the system to judge. Unfortunately, the system did not issue any refresh tasks.

Hatake Sakumo is a true hero. He will not blame others because he was framed and suffered humiliation. Instead, he will face everything calmly.

"I came here to make a deal with you." Hatake Sakumo finally stated his purpose.

"Shuomao, you have chips. Friendship is friendship, and transaction is transaction. They cannot be confused." Ji Tengchuan said seriously. Only his wife could confuse the two.

"How about the position of ANBU Minister? Don't be too busy to refuse it. I still control one-fifth of the ANBU. I can give all of this part to you. The Fourth Hokage should be elected in the next few years, and they will definitely appease You, so the third generation will also support you. As for how to do it, I believe you will do better than I imagined." Seeing Ji Tengchuan want to interrupt, Shuomao immediately interrupted and revealed his bargaining chip .

Ji Tengchuan thought for a moment and said, "What about the conditions?"

"To protect the Hatake family, the most important thing is to protect the safety of my son Kakashi." Hatake Sakumo stated his conditions.

"If it's not enough, the most I can do is ensure that your Hatake family is immortal. I will only protect your son for ten years, but I can take action three times when his life is in danger. In addition, I want you to fight me with all your strength and use your sword. "Ji Tengchuan's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, as dazzling as the stars in the dark night.

"now"

"No, I need you to return to your heyday. In three days, it will be just you and me in the Holy Land of Cultivation." After Ji Tengchuan finished speaking, he turned into black smoke and disappeared on the couch. See more Weixin official account: hhxs665
