Naruto: The Strongest Kakashi

Chapter 12 Natsume and Yin

Tong Gu's house.

"Natsume? You're back? Hurry up and eat." Mrs. Kiritani said enthusiastically.

Little Natsume looked at Mrs. Kiritani, and said, "Aunt Kiritani, I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well, I want to go back to my room to rest first."

Mrs. Kiritani was taken aback, and quickly walked up to Xiao Natsume, squatted down, and put her right hand on his forehead.

"It's not hot, Natsume, what's wrong with you? What's wrong?" Mrs. Kiritani asked with concern.

Little Natsume shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'm just a little uncomfortable, I'll be fine after a short rest."

Mrs. Kiritani looked at Natsume strangely, and then said: "Okay, then you have a good rest, I will keep your food for you."

"Thank you, Aunt Tong Gu."

Xiao Natsume said, and returned to his room.

in the living room.

"Huh? Miko, what's the matter? Isn't Natsume coming to eat?" Mr. Kiritani said.

Mrs. Kiritani shook her head and said, "He seems a little uncomfortable, and said he wants to stay by himself. This child is really strange."

"Well, it's no wonder, after all, he has been wandering around since he was so young. Moreover, his parents and grandmother are also weird people." Mr. Kiritani said.

"Husband, although Natsume is very pitiful, but this child is really weird, and he always says some strange things, I am really a little scared." Mrs. Kiritani worried.

Mr. Kiritani sighed, and said, "Oh, it's hard for you. In a few days, the time limit for us to adopt Natsume will be up, and he will live at my cousin's house by then."

"Are you leaving?" Mrs. Kiritani asked in surprise.

"Well. We agreed on this time. I will tell Natsume tomorrow that I will go through the transfer procedures."

"Oh... well. This way our life can be restored to peace."

"I hope this child can change his habit of lying as soon as possible, otherwise, no matter where he goes, he will give people an uncomfortable feeling."

"Yeah, I always said that I saw some weird things, it's really scary." Mrs. Kiritani said in a low voice.

"alright,

Don't talk about this, let's eat quickly.

"Um."

in the room.

Natsume was lying on the bed, his eyes glazed over.

"Brother Kakashi is human?"

Little Natsume muttered to himself, recalling Kakashi's previous explanation in his mind.

"I am indeed a human being, but because of some special reasons, I often turn into a monster. I have no malice towards you."

No malice?

Indeed, from the moment he realized it, he did not do anything bad to himself.

It's just...is he really human?

Xiao Natsume didn't know, but at the age of eight, he couldn't think about this kind of problem at all.

The night was deep, and his heart was very lonely.

Consciousness gradually blurred, and he fell asleep.

In the shrine.

Kakashi sat aside, quietly watching the moon in the dark night.

"Today's moon is not round enough." Kakashi whispered.

"Mr. Kakashi is very interested, and he is still admiring the moon." Ayin laughed.

"Just thinking about something. It seems that you are in a good mood, and you get along well with that little girl?"

Ah Yin blushed slightly, and then said lightly: "Fortunately, that human child gave me a different feeling. I really want to be with her forever."

"It's really enviable." Kakashi laughed.

"Is there anyone Kakashi-san wants to be with forever?"

"Of course. It's just that I can't be with them now. Things in the world don't always make people get what they want."

Hearing the words, Ah Yin seemed to have thought of his own situation, sighed, and said, "Yes, people can't always get what they want."

Even if he can be with Yingying, he can't touch each other.

Everything is still like the moon in the water and the flowers in the mirror.

Early the next morning.

Little Natsume was ready to go to school with her schoolbag on her back.

Suddenly, Mr. Kiritani stopped him.

"Natsume, there is something I want to tell you."

Little Natsume was a little puzzled, but said respectfully, "Uncle Kiritani, tell me."

Seeing Xiao Natsume's well-behaved face, Mr. Kiritani's words suddenly became a little unspeakable.

But thinking about the troubles before, Mr. Kiritani still said it.

"Natsume, would you like to stay at my cousin's house tomorrow? They very much hope that you can come over as a guest."

Little Natsume was taken aback, he was too familiar with such a scene.

Every time I leave a place, it seems to start like this.

Little Natsume lowered his head and said, "I understand, Mr. Kiritani."

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with Xiao Natsume, Mr. Kiritani couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and then smiled: "Well, I will go to school today to handle the transfer procedures for you. Tomorrow happens to be the weekend, so I will send you off. Do you think it is okay?"

Little Natsume nodded without raising any objections, and then went to school.

On this day, Xiao Natsume did not attend class.

He has only just gotten acquainted with this place, and he is about to leave now.

more importantly……

Xiao Natsume looked at the forest of the mountain god in the distance, and what Kakashi once said sounded in his mind.

"I live in the shrine of the Mountain God Forest, if you have any questions, you can come to me."

"Are you going to tell him?"

Little Natsume muttered to himself, for a moment he didn't know how to make a choice.

The sun came out from the east and gradually sank into the west mountain.

Little Natsume was walking home alone with her schoolbag on her back.

Perhaps, that can't be called home, but it is the only place that little Natsume can go to now.

The park slowly appeared in front of Xiao Xiamu.

He came here excitedly a few days ago, but today, he is not in that mood.

"Brother Kakashi..."

Little Natsume muttered to himself, with inexplicable emotions in his eyes.

Very soft, Xiao Natsume turned around and ran away, the direction is the forest of the mountain god!

He's going to find Kakashi!

Tomorrow, he will leave here, and maybe he will never come back.

If he can't say goodbye to Kakashi, he will have a lifetime of regrets.

"Brother Kakashi, wait for me!"

A small figure runs in the setting sun.

Many years later, when Natsume thought of this scene again, his eyes felt hot.

That was his lost youth.

Forest of the Mountain God.

"Mr. Kakashi, why didn't you go to the town today?" Shan Shen smiled.

"Something happened yesterday, so I don't want to go today."

"It seems that Mr. Kakashi seems to be troubled by something."

"It doesn't count, it's just that some things are difficult to deal with."

"It can be seen that Mr. Kakashi is a smart person. I didn't expect there to be something difficult for you." The mountain god said with some surprise.

"Master Mountain God, the smarter you are, the more difficult things you will encounter." Kakashi laughed.

"This... this also seems to make sense."

"That's how it was originally. Alright, Lord Mountain God, I'm going to Yao Chi to practice."

After Kakashi finished speaking, he disappeared.

The mountain god smiled when he saw this, but didn't say anything.

Little Natsume was running around in the Forest of the Mountain God, looking for the shrine that Kakashi said.

But he has never been here, so how would he know where the shrine is.

At this time, night fell, and the forest was extremely dark.

If it weren't for the full moon tonight, little Natsume might not even be able to see the road clearly.

"Where is the shrine that Brother Kakashi mentioned, why can't I find it?"

Natsume was a little flustered.

Deep in the mountains and old forests, and alone, how could little Natsume not be afraid.

It's just that the persistence in his heart to see Kakashi made him unwilling to go back.

But soon, Xiao Natsume found that he seemed to have lost his way.

Even if you want to go back, you can't go back.

Darkness and fear gradually enveloped little Natsume.

"Brother Kakashi! Where are you! I'm Natsume!"

Little Natsume finally couldn't take it anymore and shouted loudly.

At this moment, he didn't care if he would shout something strange.

All he wanted was to find Kakashi.

Not far away, Ah Yin, who had just sent Yingying back, heard this voice and was a little surprised.

"Is this the voice of a child? It seems to be looking for Mr. Kakashi? Why did you appear here in the middle of the night? It's really nonsense. If you scream like this, I'm afraid it will attract more monsters."

Puzzled, Ah Yin followed the voice and walked over.

Not long after he left, Ah Yin saw a little boy with brown hair.

"Hey, what are you calling? Don't you know it's dangerous to call like that in the forest at night?"

Little Natsume was taken aback for a moment, but she didn't expect that someone would actually respond to her.

Natsume turned around and saw that it was a strange man with a dog's head mask.

A floral shirt, and silver-white hair.

Silver hair? Could it be Brother Kakashi?

"Brother Kakashi? Is that you?" Little Natsume said happily.

"Are you looking for Mr. Kakashi?" Ayin asked.

Xiao Natsume came back to his senses when he heard the words, the voice was not Kakashi.

And on closer inspection, it seems that the height does not match.

But listening to his words, he seemed to know Kakashi.

"Do you know Brother Kakashi?" Xiao Natsume asked bravely.

Ah Yin nodded and said, "Well, you want to find him?"

Seeing what Ah Yin said, Xiao Natsume was overjoyed, and quickly said: "Yes! I want to find Brother Kakashi, can you take me there to find him?"

Ayin thought for a while, and said, "You are the Natsume Mr. Kakashi mentioned recently, right?"

Little Natsume was taken aback, and said, "You know me?"

A Yin smiled and said, "Of course, Mr. Kakashi mentions you very often. Why are you still coming to find Mr. Kakashi so late?"

Little Natsume was overjoyed at first, but then his eyes darkened: "I... I came to apologize to Brother Kakashi, and I'm leaving here tomorrow, so I want to say goodbye to Brother Kakashi."

"So that's the case, then come with me." Ah Yin said with a smile.

"Can you really help me find Brother Kakashi?"

"Of course, I've been living with Mr. Kakashi recently."

"Really? That would be great!"

Little Natsume ran to A Yin's side, ready to follow him to find Kakashi.

Ah Yin picked up the small wooden stick on the side, held one end himself, and handed the other end to Xiao Natsume.

"You hold this stick so you won't lose it."

Little Natsume was a little puzzled, but still held the wooden stick obediently.

Ah Yin smiled and said: "Sorry, because of my body, I can't be touched by humans, otherwise I will disappear. So I can only take you there like this. You don't mind, do you?"

Natsume was taken aback, and said, "You...you are also a monster?"

"You can put it this way, although I was originally a human being." Ah Yin laughed.

Originally human?

The words are so familiar.

Yes, Brother Kakashi seems to say that he was originally a human.

"Then Brother Kakashi is the same as you?" Little Natsume asked curiously.

"Mr. Kakashi? He is different from me. He is a human being, but because of a small problem, he will turn into a monster from time to time." Yin explained.

"Is that so?"

Xiao Xiamu felt relieved when he heard the words, it turned out that he didn't lie to himself.

Will it turn into a monster from time to time?

Then he must be very uncomfortable in his heart, right?

I still treated him like that yesterday.

Thinking of this, Xiao Xiamu felt a little uneasy again.

Under the moonlight, Ah Yin and Natsume walked side by side.

It's just that what connects their hands is a small wooden stick.

"Natsume, do you like Mr. Kakashi?" Ah Yin asked suddenly.

"Um?"

Natsume was startled, for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

"What's the matter? Is it difficult to answer?" Ah Yin looked at Natsume and smiled.

"No...it's not, Brother Kakashi is fine, I want to live with him. But..."

Little Natsume seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes were a little dim.

"It seems that you also have a lot of helplessness." Ah Yin sighed.

It seems that whether it is a human or a monster, living in this world, it is always inevitable to have such a predicament.

Little Natsume lowered his head and didn't answer.

The air froze again for a while.

Ah Yin didn't speak any more, but quietly led Natsume to the shrine.

Outside the shrine, Kakashi was still sitting on the rock.

Seeing Ah Yin bring Xiao Natsume over, he was a little surprised.

"Natsume? Why are you here?" Kakashi asked in surprise.

Natsume heard the sound and looked, it was Kakashi.

"Brother Kakashi!"

Xiao Natsume was overjoyed, let go of the wooden stick, and ran towards Kakashi.

Kakashi got up, and little Natsume threw himself into his arms.

"Brother Kakashi, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled at you yesterday."

Little Natsume said, tears welling up in his eyes.

Kakashi froze for a moment, then gently stroked Xiao Natsume's hair, and said, "It's okay, everything is over."

When Natsume heard this, the crying seemed to get louder.

Ah Yin on the side looked at this scene with envy.

When will I be able to give Firefly such a big hug?

"Brother Kakashi, I'm leaving here tomorrow and going to another relative's house, can you... can you come with me?"

Kakashi rubbed Natsume's hair, and said apologetically, "Sorry, Natsume, I have some things that I can't leave here. I'll come to you after I finish these things, okay?"

"Will it be long?"

"I don't know either. But if I finish, I will definitely go to you as soon as possible."

"Um."

Little Natsume responded softly, and then fell asleep in Kakashi's arms.

He is so tired.

The mountain is also too high for a small child.

Kakashi gently hugged Natsume in his arms, with a smile on his face.

Tong Gu's house.

"Husband, Natsume is gone, and I can't find it no matter how hard I look for it, maybe something happened?" Mrs. Kiritani said worriedly.

"Let's look for it again, it must be nearby."

"good."

Just as the two were about to go out, there was a knock on the door.
