Chapter 10 Hatake Kakashi

Konoha Training Ground.

Suzumiya Musashi was sweating.

After the funeral, he visited Might Guy and was no longer worried when he found that he had recovered from the grief of Might Guy's death.

He started practicing physical skills again.

Due to the stimulation on the battlefield, after returning, he increased the intensity of his practice again.

He no longer wanted to be cannon fodder.

It was just past noon, the sun was shining brightly, and Might Guy's voice came from afar.

"Kakashi, hurry up! I'm introducing you to a little brother. This little brother is quite a bit like me back then.

When I see him, I can't help but think of my youthful days!"

"Oh, oh, I know. I'm already on my way."

Soon, Might Guy, dressed in green, pulled a white-haired man who was full of resistance and came in front of Suzumiya Musashi.

"Hey! Musashi, you are right here after all, hahaha. Look, let me introduce you to a friend, my lifelong enemy and best friend - Hatake Kakashi!"

Suzumiya Musashi, who was sweating all over, said: "I know, Konoha's genius ninja, a powerful existence who achieved jonin at the age of 12, Kakashi-senpai."

"Kakashi, this is Suzumiya Musashi, a taijutsu genius with a strong foundation."

"Hi." Hatake Kakashi nodded. The only eye that was exposed was full of fatigue and gloom.

Suzumiya Musashi didn't care, his eyes were bright with sweat on his face. "Kakashi-senpai, you and Brother Kai are my role models! I will work hard to practice and use all my youth to chase after you!"

"Oh! Youth is so exciting! Musashi!"

"Brother Kai!"

"Musashi!"

"Brother Kai!!"

"Musashi!!! Wuuwuwu~"

Hatake Kakashi: "..."

[Another troublesome guy like Kai]

"Kakashi!" Might Guy, who was full of passion, suddenly turned around and said to Hatake Kakashi with snot and tears on his face: "The light of youth is so dazzling, let's have a hot competition! Do you see the Hokage Rock in the distance? Let's see who can rush to the head of the Third Hokage first! If I lose, I will kick him a thousand times with weights on my feet! How about it!?"

Hatake Kakashi: "No."

"Senior Kakashi!" Suzumiya Musashi clenched his fists and said excitedly, "How can I refuse Brother Kai's youthful invitation! Take me with you! If I fall behind you, I will do a thousand squats on the Third Hokage Rock!"

Hatake Kakashi: "Absolutely not."

Might Guy suddenly appeared in front of Hatake Kakashi and held his shoulders tightly with both hands: "Kakashi! As my lifelong enemy, you can't retreat at this time."

Hatake Kakashi: “…No.”

Might Guy: "Kakashi, you know, if you don't agree, whether you are eating, taking a shower, going to the toilet... I will sincerely invite you all day long! Kakashi!"

"Kakashi-senpai!"

"Kakashi!!"

"Kakashi-senpai!!"

"Stop!" Kakashi Hatake waved his hand, stopping the two of them with an increasingly strong tone.

"Okay, I promise, let's get started. Kai, this is the last time."

"Yoshi!" Might Guy stretched out his right hand, and with a bang, he flicked his thumb and knocked a stone away, and gave Kakashi a thumbs up. Then he said, "Youth's invitation really can't be refused! Kakashi, Musashi, the moment the stone falls, it's time to start. Get ready..."

"Snapped!"

“Whoosh!~”

The moment the stone fell to the ground, three people rushed out, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Might Guy and Hatake Kakashi rushed in front, while Suzumiya Musashi's figure was falling farther and farther behind.

He was not discouraged. He felt his muscles trembling under the drive of his will, providing powerful propulsion for his body, and his mood was excited.

It doesn’t matter if he can’t catch up now. One day, he will get closer and closer to the figure in front.

There will always be that day!

The wind blew across my cheek, and suddenly, a drop of liquid hit my face.

The sun is shining brightly in the sky; there is no way it is going to rain.

[So, if it's not Brother Kai's saliva, it should be Kakashi's tears.]

Looking at Kakashi Hatake who was running more and more frantically and even one body length ahead of Might Guy, Suzumiya Musashi seemed to be thinking about something.

The Third Ninja World War had just ended, and Kakashi Hatake had just lost two of his companions.

That's probably why Might Guy brought him here to play with him.

"Kakashi, you are worthy of being the one I am chasing! You win today's competition!" Might Guy panted on the Hokage Rock.

"Huff~Huff~" Kakashi Hatake, who won the game, seemed to be breathing hard.

The sweat all over his body made him look like he had been fished out of the water, but his eyes were more lively than before.

"Exciting competition is really refreshing! Kakashi, next time, I will definitely not lose to you!"

"Kai, I said, this is the last time."

"Kakashi, I meant next time."

Kakashi: "..."

Wisely not arguing with Might Guy, Hatake Kakashi looked at the smoke gradually approaching in the distance and said, "Very energetic kid."

Might Guy retorted, "Kakashi, Musashi is not some brat! He is a talented physical boy who inherited the Will of Fire and my Youth Ninja Way!"

Hatake Kakashi glanced at Might Guy with one eye: "So you gave that jutsu to him? Guy, you are so ridiculous!"

“Ahahahaha,” Might Guy laughed awkwardly, “Well… at that time… I was mainly worried about what would happen if I died in the battle. Someone must inherit this technique!”

"Besides, I will never regret passing it on to Musashi! Kakashi, you've also discovered that the child is very similar to me."

"Don't you have any talent for ninjutsu?" said Hatake Kakashi.

"No!" Might Guy said seriously, "Musashi is not without ninja talent. In fact, from what I know, his ninjutsu talent is not bad!"

"And this is one of the reasons why I am moved. This child obviously has a talent for ninjutsu, but he is able to have such an excellent foundation in the practice of taijutsu!"

"That technique can only be passed down because of people like this!"

"Your talent in ninjutsu is not bad." Kakashi said softly.

Might Guy: "That's right. Kakashi, you know, my talent in ninjutsu was very poor at first, and I couldn't even pass the entrance exam. That's why I put all my energy into taijutsu. But you know, Musashi is different. From the time I met this kid until now, he has never slacked off! Not even for a single day!"

"If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be hard to believe that such a character would exist in a four or five-year-old child."

"Just wait and see Kakashi, this kid's taijutsu skills will surprise you."

"Really?" Hatake Kakashi looked at the dust getting closer and closer: "Then I will wait and see how good the child you are so optimistic about can grow up to be."

When Suzumiya Musashi ran to the Hokage Rock, Might Guy and the other man had already calmed down.

Although he was panting and exhausted, Suzumiya Musashi's eyes were still bright.

"Brother Kai, I failed. Next I will fulfill my vow and do a thousand squats on the Third Hokage Rock!"

"Yo! Musashi, that's awesome! Failure is not terrible. Even I lost to Kakashi again today.

Next, I will do a thousand double kicks with weights! Kakashi, are you interested in supervising us? ! "

Hatake Kakashi: "Not interested at all, thank you! Bye!"

After saying that, he quickly left. After running far away, Hatake Kakashi looked back at the two who had already begun to "practice their oath", and couldn't help but sigh.

"I thought Kai was already a rare figure in the ninja world, but I didn't expect Musashi to join him."

"It seems I have to stay away from them in the future. If I get entangled by these two...ah~I can't think about it anymore!"
