Chapter 7 Exposing the conspiracy, the enlightened Sakumo Hatake

After about ten minutes, He Feng and the other two finished the ramen in the bowl.

He Feng picked up the paper towel on the side and wiped his mouth, then looked along the door to the head of Sarutobi Hiruzen on the Hokage Rock in the distance.

"Nissan, there are some things that I need to deal with. You and Obito should go home first. I will go back after I finish handling the matter." He Feng suddenly said.

Kakashi was a little confused. He and his brother were almost inseparable. Why didn't he know what He Feng would do?

However, Kakashi still chose to believe in his brother. He asked with concern: "Do you need my help?"

Obito also nodded and said: "I can also help. Hefeng, if you need help, you can talk to me and Kakashi."

He Feng shook his head and said: "You can't help, but Nissan, you can pack a piece of Ichiraku Ramen to take home. My father is probably still busy with the task and hasn't eaten."

"Then I'll get to work first."

After saying that, Hefeng left Ichiraku Ramen alone.

To be honest, the speed at which rumors spread is inherently proliferative, let alone rumors related to personal 'interests'.

He Feng had a hunch that his father, Hatake Sakumo, might have started to lose his mind. There were two main reasons why he didn't 'practice'.

First, he couldn't let go of him and Kakashi, and second, at this time, Sakumo still firmly believed that the value of his companions was higher than the mission. His choice was not wrong. No matter how many times that happened, he would choose to save his teammates.

But Hatake Sakumo didn't know that all this was a trap set by Danzo and Hiruzen together. Hiruzen wanted to suppress his reputation as the leader of the ANBU. After all, he was not far away from abdicating his age. , but Hiruzen did not want to give up the power of Hokage. He planned to cultivate a Hokage that he could control so that he could continue to control the power.

And Hatake Sakumo was selected as a candidate for the Fourth Hokage by virtue of his merit, strength and age, and Hatake Sakumo was obviously not the type to control, so Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally had to weaken Hatake relatively. Sakumo's competitiveness in the Hokage campaign.

Danzo was even simpler. Until his death, he believed that as long as he became Hokage, he could lead Konoha to become the largest ninja village in the ninja world. How could such a self-centered person accept that someone could run against him as the fourth Hokage?

It's a pity that Sakumo, who was in the middle of the game, couldn't see clearly these two old swindlers who were corrupted by power. Coupled with his own samurai spirit, he naturally decided to die to apologize for his crimes and to prove his ambition.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo were also in disbelief about Hatake Sakumo's death. They just wanted to weaken Hatake Sakumo's reputation and never wanted to cause Konoha to lose a Kage-level fighter.

It can be said that the death of Hatake Sakumo is one of the biggest mistakes in Konoha Village.

He Feng shook his head and stopped thinking about those two old guys. He was still very worried about his father.

In his previous life, he was abandoned by his parents due to illness and had to lie in bed and receive donations from society to survive. In this life, he has a real family, and he will not allow anyone to do anything to his family again.

He Feng walked for thirty minutes before arriving at the outskirts of Konoha Village, where the Konoha Cemetery is located.

Because his mother was buried here, his father would take He Feng and Kakashi here almost every week.

Therefore, He Feng judged that his father would have a heart-to-heart talk with his mother here.

Sure enough, after going deep into the cemetery, He Feng saw the 'haggard' figure of Hatake Sakumo.

Before this, he could not imagine Konoha's 'White Fang', a shadow-level expert who was feared in the ninja world, showing such an expression.

It can only be said that this rumor has done far more harm to Hatake Sakumo than He Feng imagined.

"Father."

He Feng looked at Hatake Sakumo with worried eyes and walked up to stand in front of Hatake Sakumo.

"My mother won't be able to bear it if she sees you like this. Although the common people in the village say it is too much, as long as you are firm in your heart, you will be fine."

Hatake Sakumo raised his head and looked at his son who suddenly appeared here. Listening to his still young son enlightening him about his sorrow, he sighed for a while and felt that he was too fragile.

What does this sound like? There is no trace of Konoha White Fang in him like this.

Thinking of this, Hatake Sakumo stood up from the ground, placed his gentle eyes on He Feng, raised his hand and rubbed He Feng's long white hair.

"He Feng, you are right. My father was wrong. I pride myself on having a pair of eyes that can see others clearly, but I cannot see clearly the haze that surrounds me."

He Feng stared at his big watery eyes and said again in a childish voice: "Father, I read a sentence in a book, and I think it is appropriate to use it at this time."

Hatake Sakumo said softly, "Oh, what are they?"

He Feng said firmly: "My heart and actions are as clear as a clear mirror, and everything I do is righteous."

Hatake Sakumo was a little surprised, "You want to say that as long as my heart and my behavior are as clear as a mirror, everything I do is to safeguard the justice in my heart, and there is no need to consider what others say, right? ?”

Hatake Sakumo didn't know that his son read this sentence in the book, but he thought it was very reasonable, and it was not an exaggeration to regard it as the way of ninja that should be implemented throughout his life.

At the same time, he also clearly understood that not everyone blamed him. His wife and his two sons were still supporting him unswervingly.

However, what surprised Hatake Sakumo was that He Feng did not agree with what he said, but shook his head and stated:

"Father, what I want to say is that as long as I think I am doing the right thing, then I can do whatever I want."

"The Will of Fire is to protect companions and family, not to protect Konoha. If there are no companions and family, then Konoha will have no meaning of existence. We ninjas are not tools to complete the mission."

Hearing Hefeng's explanation on the other side, Hatake Sakumo immediately laughed and praised: "Yes, you are right. Hefeng, you are right."

"Hefeng, I will be the strongest support for you and Kakashi. As long as your father is here, no one can hurt you. If you and Kakashi have any ideas, just complete them firmly. All obstacles will be overcome. I'll bear it."

"Then father, will you leave me and Nissan alone?"

"never."

At this moment, Hatake Sakumo regained his life because of the advice of his youngest son Hatake Kafeng.

He did not change his samurai spirit, but put his family before his samurai spirit.

On the way home, He Feng lay on Hatake Sakumo's back, leaned into Hatake Sakumo's ear and whispered: "Father, who is stronger between you and Shimura Danzo?"

Hatake Sakumo still remembered Danzo's eye on He Feng, so he immediately snorted and said disdainfully: "My White Fang kills Danzo like a pig or a dog."

He Feng asked again: "What about the Third Generation Eye?"

He had no objection to the Sandaime Hatake Sakumo, and just elaborated: "It's about the same. After all, the Sandaime and I have never really fought, but I can win if we fight on the battlefield."

He Feng continued: "What if these rumors about my father were made by the Sandaime and Danzo."

"After all, my father just failed a mission. No matter how great the loss is, can it be compared to the achievements of Konoha White Fang? Moreover, this kind of thing should not be spread among civilians."

"How could a civilian know about the mission my father performed."

Hatake Sakumo was shocked, and at the same time he had a clearer understanding of his youngest son's mind.

He couldn't see this kind of thing at all, but He Feng pointed it out to the point.

Seeing this, He Feng continued: "Father, I dare to say that your teammates will come to accuse you in the near future, in order to make you fall into deeper self-blame, so as to hit you and make you lose your fourth generation competitiveness. "
