This is darkness.

There was no light at all.

The cold wind gently brushed across his face like a knife, and the black monster danced its minions in the dark. It was so strange! It was so dark that it could not be seen, but it could "see" the monster's hideous and ugly appearance.

"Hey, Kakashi, Kakashi? Are you okay?"

A ray of light shone through the darkness.

The pure white light that was so dazzling that it could not be seen directly dispelled the darkness.

Kakashi opened his eyes, and then narrowed his eyes by the brilliant sunshine outside the window. He instinctively raised his hand to cover the sunshine that could make people feel idle. It took about five seconds to finally come back to his senses from the painted black dream.

"Lin, it's you?"

Looking at the girl standing in front of the table, Kakashi yawned, "Wait a moment, I'll go wash my face!"

He pulled open the drawer, took out the teeth from it, stood up, and walked to the bathroom with swaying steps.

After washing my face and brushing my teeth, I finally woke up completely.

"Is there anything wrong with me?"

Sitting back on the chair, Kakashi looked at the girl.

"Kakashi, you... have been sleeping in the office these days?" Lin looked at the small office.

"I'm too lazy to go back."

Kakashi leaned lazily on the chair, like a dog with bones sucked.

Lin looked speechlessly at Kakashi who was not in a positive shape.

"Then you lie here and sleep every day?"

"No! There is no sleeping bag here! But I was too busy yesterday and I was too lazy to get into the sleeping bag anymore. I snuggled for a while and then passed by." Kakashi said, yawning again, and two tears squeezed out of the corners of his eyes.

Since three months ago, Kakashi ran away in the conference room and was sent to the hospital for three days. In order not to let Kakashi be further affected by the ninja instrument, Minato first ordered Kakashi not to leave the village for a short period of time to perform tasks. Later, he was worried that he would be idle and do nothing, so he simply pulled him to the Naruto building to find an office and threw him a bunch of trivial matters for him to deal with.

Kakashi simply took this office as the head of the company, and it hasn't been home for almost a week.

Anyway, it's the same for him.

He lives alone.

"The teacher asked me to come to you and asked you to go to his office to find him."

Lin didn't say much. Although she wanted to persuade Kakashi to take care of her, she didn't say it in the end. Kakashi probably has her own difficulties!

"The teacher is looking for me? Is there anything wrong?"

Kakashi yawned and stood up.

"I don't know either, but there should be some task. It seems that the envoy of the Daming Kingdom of Tian was here."

"Tano Country? Isn't that place not even a ninja village? What can I do if there is a place with more Taiping?"

"I don't know either."

The two of them were talking and walked out the door.

Turning upstairs, walking along the circular corridor for half a circle, and coming to the door of Naruto's office.

The door with excellent sound insulation effect blocked the sound in the Naruto's office. There was no figure in the corridor. Some offices did not close the door properly, and some noisy sounds leaked inside, as if they were quarreling.

Under the command of Minato, there were no idle people in the Naruto Building.

"Dongdong!"

Lin knocked on the door lightly.

"Teacher, I've brought Kakashi here."

After the words came, the girl pushed open the door and the two walked in one after another.

"Lin, Kakashi, you are here!"

Behind the wide mahogany desk, the Fourth Hokage in white casual clothes sat upright, with a kind smile on his face looking at the two disciples who walked in.

"teacher."

Lin and Kakashi took two steps forward and said hello in unison.

"Oh, Kakashi, what are you doing recently? I've looked for you several times, you're not at home, but we haven't had a good fight for a month." Ah Kai jumped up on the sofa, and Asma next to him shivered with grumbling.

"Oh!"

Kakashi didn't raise his eyelids.

But Akai didn't care about Kakashi's bad attitude at all. There was no reason. He got excited about himself, waved his fists, and wanted to jump around on the spot three times and fight against Kakashi. "Kakashi, the sun is so good today, let's have a youthful duel!!!"

Is the sun good?

Asma looked out the window and narrowed her eyes.

Today's sun is quite sunny.

However, is this necessary connection with the passionate duel of youth?

"No today. I stayed up late last night and was in a bad spirit. Now I can't even exert half of my strength. Let's compete again and again, and then compete again and again!" Kakashi shook his hands and refused weakly. After being entangled by Akai for so long, he also mastered how to deal with Akai's "brilliant beast".

Refusing hard is the best way to refuse. Akai's desperate tangle is simply unpredictable. He can sit next door to invite a fight even if he squats on the toilet.

The best way is to say that you are not in good health and there is no way to have a "fair" duel, so Akai will choose to give up... However, the only drawback is that this method cannot be used all the time, and you still have to compete with Akai every now and then.

"Stay late? Then there is nothing we can do. It seems that our duel can only be postponed. However, it is best not to stay up late for passionate youth!"

Akai gave a thumbs up, and his glittering white teeth made everyone's eyes hurt.

However,... finally comforted this guy, including Minato, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Akai didn't know what to do, so he decided to hang on Kakashi. Sometimes even he couldn't understand Qingqi's brain circuit.

Just comfort it.

Well, just soothe!

Mizuno knocked on the table with his fingers.

"Tu tuk!!"

The crisp sound instantly attracted everyone's attention that was distracted by the disturbance.

"Kakashi, Asma, Aka, Lin." Minato nodded one by one, Asma, whose butt was still stuck to the sofa, jumped up like a spring installed. He stood in a row with Kakashi and the others, and listened respectfully to the orders from the Fourth Genesis Master.

"I have a task to ask you to do today."

Minato looked at the teenage girls standing at the table.

The four people concentrated and pricked their ears.

"There have been some problems in the past two months. At the beginning, there was no big problem. It was just that some bandits in the country of Tianzhi were attacked and disappeared constantly. It was a good thing to say, but just a month ago, probably because the bandits and bandits in the country were arrested. Someone attacked the prison in Tianzhi Kingdom and robbed the prisoners in the prison."

Watermen tells the story.

"If it ends here, it will not be a serious problem, but then these attackers of unknown origin began to attack the gangsters in the city, and the Daming Mansion of Tano Country was in chaos. As a result, Daming of Tano Country sent an envoy to Konoha, hoping to send someone to investigate the identity of the attacker and solve the attacker."

"Are we going to Tianyu Kingdom to investigate these attackers?"

Asma couldn't hold it in anymore and asked.

"No."

Minato's answer made Asma's eyes widen. He doubted whether something was wrong with his ears?

However, from the corner of my eyes, I noticed Akai's dazed look next to me. It seemed that his ears should be fine.

"Two months ago, the people in Tanoko's country noticed the existence of these attackers and immediately investigated them." Minato said slowly without panic. "Just a week ago, the latest information was sent, and the attackers... are likely to be related to Orochimaru."

Orochimaru!

One of the three ninjas, one of the pillars of Konoha.

This name is particularly intimidating in the ears of Kakashi and his generation. They are the youngest group of people who have witnessed the might of Sannin. They are younger than them, and they have never seen Sannin appear on the battlefield. Those who are older than them naturally respect the name of "Sannin" just like them.

"Orochimaru is our goal?" Asma was the one who spoke.

"Yes, your mission is to confirm whether the news about Orochimaru is true or false." Minato replied.

"Is Orochimaru? Although it is dangerous, it is also exciting!"

Asma smiled, the face that had already had a circle of plush beard showed the wanton and frivolity of a young man.

"Oh oh oh! Orochimaru! My blood is also starting to boil."

Akai burned for granted.

Seeing the two of them, Minato frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Asma, Akai, don't be careless. If Orochimaru really hides in Tajinoya, even a little negligence will make you regret it for life... I don't want you to be missing someone when you come back."

“We will be careful.”

Seeing Lord Naruto with a look of unhesitation, Asma and Akai immediately lowered their heads and admitted their mistakes obediently.

No matter if you really know that you are wrong or say it, no one will be stupid enough to provoke Lord Naruto at this time, admitting your mistakes is the only correct choice.

Minatum sighed. Even if there was no Sharingan or rolling his eyes, he could tell that Akai had truly admitted his mistake, and Asma... This child is still too proud! I heard that he had quarreled with San Daimu at home countless times, and Asma even threatened to run away from home...
