Chapter 43 Information: Kakashi as mentioned by Shizune
Yokota Hotel, a room.
“Although there was a slight mishap, our bandit suppression mission must continue. As you know, there was quite a commotion last night. To avoid alerting the bandits and making them suspicious, we must act tonight.” Kakashi sat down cross-legged, looking at Ishikawa and the other two with a serious expression.
"But teacher, is my brother going to fight even though his injuries haven't healed yet?" Taro asked worriedly, while Jiro beside him looked equally puzzled.
Looking at the three of them, Kakashi smiled slightly beneath his mask. "Of course, on the battlefield, the enemy won't give you time to recover from an injury."
Before the two underlings could say anything more, Kakashi waved them off, saying, "Don't worry, this time we're only dealing with ordinary bandits, not as dangerous as last night!"
Hearing this, the two underlings breathed a sigh of relief. Although their eldest brother, Ishikawa, was injured, he was stronger than both of them and should be fine.
"Rest now, we'll set off when it gets dark tonight." Seeing that the two were no longer talking, Ishikawa didn't object and Kakashi made the final decision.
Tarojiro and Tarojiro exchanged a glance, then Tarojiro immediately went out to his room to rest.
They booked two double rooms; Kakashi and Ishikawa shared one room, and their two underlings shared the other.
"Ishikawa, you should rest for a bit too. My Sharingan also needs rest to recover its power." Kakashi said casually as he lay down after watching the two leave.
Although the slug healing helped him restore his chakra and energy, preventing him from having to lie down and recuperate for several days due to excessive consumption of his eye power, the consumption of his eye power did not recover so quickly.
Yeah, I still need to rest for a bit.
"Teacher, why do you have the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan?" Seeing that the time was right, Ishikawa lay down on his bed, feigning curiosity. "As far as I know, the Sharingan is a bloodline limit possessed only by the Uchiha clan. Besides, wasn't that clan wiped out by Itachi Uchiha?"
The Uchiha clan massacre caused quite a stir in the village at the time, and even though Ishikawa was an orphan, he had heard about it, so he was naturally not afraid of any mishaps.
He needs a reliable source of intelligence so that he won't make any mistakes when facing Nohara Rin or even the Minato squad in the future!
Well, with his dual-portal ability, Ishikawa will definitely be traversing between the two worlds. And Nohara Rin might even want to come and take a look! So, without absolute strength, you can't fool those shrewd guys with just words.
"This is a gift from a dear friend." Kakashi, who was closing his eyes to recover his pupil power, trembled upon hearing this, and subconsciously touched his left eye, sighing in a low voice.
"Teacher, can I know your story?" Ishikawa pressed on, looking like a curious child.
"Well..." Kakashi was speechless for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed.
Although he acknowledged Ishikawa after the Xuanyuan Clan incident, he still found it difficult to speak of that failed past. Did he really want his disciples to know how despicable he had been, abandoning his comrades for the sake of a so-called mission?
No, absolutely not! He, as his advisor, has no dignity left!
"We can talk about this another time. Let's rest and recover our energy first." Kakashi made an excuse to avoid the topic and simply closed his eyes, pretending to be dead.
This almost caused Ishikawa, who was just one step away from victory, to unleash a Thousand Years of Death. Did he really need that little bit of recovery time?
"Ahem, you rest, I'll go find Sister Shizune to help me with my treatment." With a quick glance around his eyes, Ishikawa immediately changed his target and rushed out the door.
Even if Kakashi didn't say anything, Shizune could have done it too! As Kakashi's classmate and Rin Nohara's friend, it would be a bit unreasonable for Shizune to say she didn't know.
"Treatment? Shizune won't go against Lady Tsunade's decision." Kakashi rolled over and said, not holding out much hope.
"Obito, Rin, if only I could have another chance to choose..." Kakashi stared unfocusedly at the ceiling, his consciousness gradually sinking into those beautiful yet cruel memories!
Meanwhile, in another room.
"What? You want to know Kakashi's past??" Upon hearing Ishikawa's request, Shizune blurted out in surprise.
Her cheeks flushed instantly as she thought of Kakashi, the genius from her youth. He was their dream man back then, a stunningly talented and unparalleled genius!
"Hmm, he just said that the Sharingan was a gift from his best friend, and I'm a little curious about what exactly happened. But Kakashi-sensei won't tell me, so I can only ask you, the kind and beautiful Shizune-neechan..."
"Hehehe, you little rascal, you really know how to talk." Hearing Ishikawa's flattery, Shizune couldn't stop laughing, thoroughly enjoying it.
“Kakashi’s past isn’t exactly a secret. He probably doesn’t want to relive those painful memories!” Having spoken favorably of Kakashi, Shizune became serious. “As Kakashi’s student, knowing these things might help him overcome his trauma more quickly. So, I’ll tell you…”
“Okay.” Ishikawa immediately agreed and listened attentively.
"Kakashi and I were once teammates, so I know quite a bit about him. Kakashi was a student of the late Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze. His other two teammates were Obito Uchiha from the Uchiha clan and my friend Rin Nohara."
With a single word, Shizune surprised Ishikawa. She directly and clearly revealed the details of the Minato Clan, leaving him overjoyed and breathless!
Seeing this, Shizune assumed Ishikawa was acting this way because of the Fourth Hokage's appearance, and wasn't surprised. After all, he was the hero who sealed the Nine-Tails and saved the village...
"Many years ago, around Konoha Year 46, when Kakashi was 12 years old and promoted to Jonin, his squad received a mission that would influence the course of the war: to destroy the Kannabi Bridge and cut off Iwagakure's supply lines."
"12 years old, promoted to Jonin!!" Ishikawa interrupted with a feigned exclamation, his face full of shock as if he were hearing it for the first time.
“That’s right, Kakashi is the youngest Jonin in Konoha’s history. It’s a pity I was away from the village with Lady Tsunade at the time and didn’t have time to prepare a promotion gift for him!” Shizune said proudly and regretfully, then her tone changed.
"Although I only found out about this later, it is true that during the mission to destroy the Kannabi Bridge, Kakashi accidentally lost his left eye, and then Obito also awakened the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan."
"I don't know the specifics, but I do know that Obito was hit on half of his body by the Earth Release of Iwagakure while trying to save Rin and Kakashi, and then gave his Sharingan to Kakashi."
"On that same day, two heroes with Sharingan were born in the Battle of Kannabi Bridge. One was the deceased Uchiha Obito, and the other was Kakashi, the Konoha technician and copy ninja with Sharingan, who became famous throughout the world."
"Is that so?" Ishikawa lowered his head, sighing deeply. He took a few deep breaths, then looked up and asked, "Then, what about Nohara Rin? I've never heard the teacher mention her. Could it be that she also..."
"Lin~~"
Upon hearing this, a glint of tears welled up in Jingyin's eyes, and it seemed as if a bright, smiling girl with a sunny disposition floated before her.
