Chapter 43 An unexpected surprise
"Ahem... Haneda, you should take a good rest first. I will come to see you later."
The Sandaime coughed a few times and said.
His original plan to negotiate with Haneda and gain the other party's satisfaction at a lower cost had been completely interrupted.
Now we can only hope that the Uchiha clan leader will not open his mouth like a lion.
The Sandaime could vaguely sense that Haneda was not very satisfied with the results he had given.
"Okay, Lord Hokage, take care." Haneda said with a smile.
After the Sandaime left, the atmosphere in the ward changed instantly.
Obito kept chattering in Haneda's ear.
"Asshole Haneda, you actually abandoned me again and went on a mission with the idiot Kakashi!!"
"You're injured, can you handle it with your small body?!"
Obito's tone was somewhat resentful, which made Haneda smile.
"Okay, okay, isn't this all right, Oh Beato?"
"Besides, Kakashi isn't in any trouble either. He just needs to rest for a few days."
Haneda consoled.
"You still say that nothing happened? I heard from Uncle Sakumo that Kakashi's back was blown to pieces. If he hadn't been treated in time, he might have died!"
"Asshole Haneda, why did you accept such a dangerous mission like the idiot Kakashi!!"
Seeing that Obito's complaints were full of concern, Haneda also comforted him repeatedly:
"Okay, okay, I promise you I will never accept this kind of mission next time."
"You know, I'm a very cautious person. I won't act rashly unless it's necessary."
"Of course, this was purely an accident. I had no idea this would happen."
After comforting Obito for a while, Haneda then turned his gaze to Gai.
He heard from Tsunade that Uncle Dai had made a sudden ascent last night, going directly from a Genin to the highest level of elite Jonin.
Haneda couldn't help but be curious about Kai's reaction.
"Kai, I heard that Uncle Dai was personally appointed as an elite Jonin by the Hokage last night. Is this true?"
Kai also became excited when he mentioned this:
"Haneda, this time it's all thanks to you!"
"Even if you helped my father plan a temporary position in the Hokage's Guard last time, my father would not be valued so much by the Hokage!"
"When I came to see you, I ran into those two Chunins from a few days ago. They just avoided me, haha."
"Now no one talks about my father being a ten thousand year old Genin anymore, instead they talk about the hero of Konoha!"
At the mention of the word hero, Kai became more excited.
"What are they saying? A golden fish cannot stay in a pond. Once it encounters wind and clouds, it will turn into a dragon."
"That's a fancy way of saying it, but that's what it means."
From Kai's voice and smile, Haneda could sense his happiness and gratitude.
However, Haneda did not intend to take all the credit on himself.
In his opinion, it is very easy for people with ability to get corresponding treatment.
It’s just a matter of wanting or not wanting.
But Uncle Dai's situation is rather special. He has strong self-discipline and has been doing D-level tasks for decades, without any chance of unleashing the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu.
“Uncle Dai’s strength only needs a proper stage, and I just pushed him onto the stage.”
"The real performance still depends on Uncle Dai himself."
"His being able to walk to the center of the stage has little to do with me. It's just like giving him an admission ticket."
Haneda didn't care and said he wasn't so shameless as to take all the credit on himself.
"Maybe you're right, but my dad and I are still very grateful to you."
Kai held Haneda's hand and looked into Haneda's eyes deeply, which was rare.
This gaze full of gay love made Haneda very shocked.
He quickly looked away and glanced at the favorability system.
In one night, the system rang dozens of times in succession!
Uncle Dai's favorability has risen to 230, outrageous! !
Kai’s favorability was even more outrageous, soaring directly to 280!!!
He even brought in the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu that Haneda had intended to give up before, and his comprehension ability reached the fourth gate - the Injury Gate!
This means that Haneda only needs a little practice to open the front four doors at will! !
You know, just the three-door lotus is enough for Haneda to walk sideways in the realm of Chunin!!!
However, this growing favorability made Haneda subconsciously recall the scene of Uncle Dai and Kai hugging and crying.
Thinking of this scene, Haneda quickly shook his head to get rid of the complicated thoughts.
"Okay, Kai, you've been holding Haneda's hand so hard that it's turned red," Lin reminded.
"That's right, you bastard Watermelon Head! Get your dirty hands off Haneda right now!" Obito followed up.
Hearing Lin's gentle voice, Haneda looked over and gave Lin a grateful look.
This inexplicable gratitude made Lin feel a little strange.
But when she thought of Kai's excitement, she thought of it as helping Haneda get rid of Kai's enthusiasm.
Noticing the tiredness on Haneda's face, Lin pulled Obito's hand and said softly:
"Obito, Haneda just woke up, so let's not disturb him from resting."
"Let's go now. Um, Gai, do you want to go with me and Obito to visit Kakashi?"
"I heard he is sober now."
Kai noticed Haneda's tired face and nodded:
"Okay, Haneda, Runtu and I will go visit Kakashi first, you should have a good rest first."
"By the way, you must rest well. Once I defeat Kakashi, I will come and challenge you!"
"Ok, I will wait for you."
Haneda agreed, since he didn't think Kai could defeat Kakashi unless he opened the Eight Gates.
But thinking of Kakashi, Haneda fell silent again.
As time slowly passed, he heard footsteps fading away and the sound of a door opening.
Haneda couldn't bear it any longer and said to Obito and the others:
"Can you give me a message? Just tell Kakashi... tell him, thank you."
…………
After Obito and the others left, the ward suddenly became quiet.
Haneda, who had been accustomed to loneliness, felt very uncomfortable at this time.
He actually likes to have some friends and people who care about and are close to him.
Although these people all made friends with certain clear purposes.
Haneda recalled a sentence he had read online:
Don't listen to what the Uchiha say, look into their eyes, their eyes speak.
When it happened to him, Haneda, although stubborn, admitted that he fell in love with these friends and people close to him.
I closed my eyes quietly for a while, and as expected, the clan leader and Fugaku arrived.
Fugaku walked in carrying his eldest son's favorite sweet three-color dumplings, intending to place them on the counter next to the bed.
At this time, the counter was already filled with various gifts, including apples, bananas, oranges, carnations and lilies.
Fugaku had to tidy up the counter before putting down the three-color meatballs he had brought with him.
He was about to hand a string to Haneda when the clan leader suddenly coughed a few times and said:
"Haneda, what happened last night? Were we attacked?"
"The news from last night was completely blocked by the Hokage. I asked many people but couldn't get any information."
