Chapter 122 Konoha's Gemini

Might Guy turned around and left. In his heart, as long as he recognized Kakashi, it was enough. As for whether Kakashi recognized him or not, that was not within his consideration.

How can a loser who only knows physical skills ask others to recognize him?

Hatake Sakumo watched the backs of Might and his son as they left, then lowered his head and said to Kakashi.

"Kakashi, don't be too proud. If you keep going like this, that kid will be even more powerful than you."

Sakumo's mind was full of the details he had just noticed.

The raised thumb was covered with calluses, and the exposed toes were covered with scratches, firmly hooked on the foot coolers.

"Huh? Him?"

Kakashi raised his head and looked at Sakumo reluctantly. He never thought that there was anything special about Might Guy. It was just because he saw how hard Might Guy was working that he couldn't help but encourage him.

Sakumo squatted down and touched Kakashi's white fur.

"Do you know his name? Remember him. He will be a good opponent."

Kakashi looked at Might Guy walking away and called him reluctantly.

"Hey! What's your name, kid?"

Kakashi had only vaguely heard of Might Guy's name, but had never paid much attention to him, so he wasn't sure.

Might Guy turned his head and stared at Kakashi blankly, suddenly baring his little white teeth again.

He waved his hands in the air like wings, and in a very Chuunib style, he moved them in front of him and gave himself a thumbs-up.

"Gai! Might Guy! I will become a man stronger than anyone else!"

Even though it looked funny, the momentum and the words that sounded like an oath made Kakashi keep a dead eye on his face, but he felt a little touched in his heart.

This guy......

Might Guy left. He and his father Might Dai left upside down like monkeys.

People passing by were no longer surprised by this. Even Kakashi had seen this scene before, but Might Guy's words just now made him remember this kid who seemed like a joke. Extraordinary people will always be noticed.

"Come on, Kakashi, let's go back too. I've prepared your favorite saury."

"Father... Actually, I think Sichuan and Tibet would be more suitable opponents."

"Chuanzang...that child is special..."

The two of them were strolling on their way home, the dazzling afterglow of dusk falling, blocked by Sakumo on his back, hiding Kakashi's small body under his shadow.

......

In the 42nd year of Konoha, Kakashi graduated from the Ninja Academy, breaking the record for Ninja Academy graduates. Kawazo also graduated in the same year.

The two are known as Konoha's most dazzling twin stars.

A genius ninja must be extremely eye-catching.

At the same time, the rumors in the village about the failure of Hatake Sakumo's mission that year became more and more intense. Even though Hatake Sakumo had faded out of the ninja's vision in recent years and rarely appeared in the village, the rumors still did not let him go.

In the 43rd year of Konoha, Kakashi was promoted to Chunin by completing tasks efficiently and passing the Chunin exam with almost full marks.

A six-year-old Chunin with such extraordinary talent, but this seemed to have little impact on the opinions of the village.

"Kawazo, why don't you take the Chunin Exam with me."

Kakashi sat on a big rock and asked Kawazo who was standing beside him.

For more than a year, Kakashi spent most of his time on missions with Kawazo. The missions involving Genin were almost non-dangerous, so he had hardly ever seen Kawazo use ninjutsu.

But after carrying out missions together every day, Kakashi knew that this guy who graduated with him was not as lazy as he seemed.

Kakashi looked at Kawazo who was crawling by the river. It was actually very rude to describe a ninja as lazy, but Kakashi really couldn't find any other adjective.

It seems like I've been with Mr. Gu Zang for a long time?

Chuan Zang often lies there in a not very elegant posture, and he does not wear his forehead protector on his head, but just ties it around his arm. He usually wears a vest, shorts and a pair of old slippers, and looks as leisurely as an old man.

"Huh? Why are you taking the Chunin Exams?"

Kawazo lay by the river, secretly looking at the sapling under his face and asked Kakashi.

"To become a Chunin, of course!"

"So, why do you want to become a Chunin?"

"what?"

Kakashi stretched his neck and looked at the figure with its butt slightly raised by the river. He wanted to go up and kick it.

Why do you want to become a Chunin? Is this a question a ninja should ask?

"There's nothing good about being a Chunin, Kakashi."

"How could that be? You can receive higher-level missions, get paid, and increase your strength in exchange for more advanced ninjutsu..."

Kakashi picked at his fingers, counting the benefits he could imagine from being promoted to Chunin.

"I'm not short of ninjutsu, nor am I short of money, Kakashi. Going out on a mission is very dangerous. What if you die? You can slowly improve your strength, but if you lose your life, it's all over~"

Kakashi choked, and a lot of thoughts flashed through his little head, but he couldn't refute what Chuan Zang said. It seemed... was this the truth?

After confirming that the sapling was full of life and not dead wood, Chuan Zang buried the sapling with satisfaction, destroyed all traces, and then stood up.

"Kakashi, come chase me."

"No."

Kakashi stared with dead eyes and immediately waved his hands.

He has been playing the game of chasing Sichuan and Tibet for three years, but has never succeeded. Sichuan and Tibet said that if they catch up, they will do something, but he still hasn't explained the "what" clearly.

In short, this is an impossible task for the time being and it is meaningless.

"Then let's go fishing! We're definitely going to catch something today! I'm getting the feeling!"

"Do not."

Kakashi refused again. The fishing that Chuan Zang mentioned was what Chuan Zang did. He watched from the side with his eyes wide open. Chuan Zang promised that he would grill the first fish for him to eat, but Chuan Zang had never caught any fish seriously. He always used Fireball to blow up the small pond when he was furious.

"Hey~ Don't be so heartless~ How about we take on a mission?"

Kawazo came close to Kakashi and tugged at his mask, which annoyed Kakashi.

But Kakashi thought about it and realized that only completing missions could give him some different feelings.

"Let's go."

The two rushed to the task release point.

The ninjas at the publishing office are already familiar with these two little guys. Don’t be fooled by their small size, their mission completion rate has been 100% so far.

"Hey, two little geniuses, here to take on another mission~"

The Jonin at the mission issuing office rolled his eyes. Of course, he was a ninja from the Hyuga clan, so he rolled his eyes at everyone.

"Uncle Hinata, I'm a Chunin now. Can I take B-rank missions?"

Kakashi asked politely.

"B-rank?"

The Hyuga ninja hesitated and looked at Kawazo.

As for Kakashi, it's no problem for him to take B-rank missions, his strength is obvious to all, but when it comes to Sichuan and Tibet...

After graduating from Sichuan and Tibet, his identity was discovered by the major families of Konoha.

The orphan left behind by Shinzo is not important. What is important is the person who brought him, or the summoning beast, who is Konoha's living fossil, Guzo.

Who did Gu Zang lead? Tsunade and Nawaki!

Even if Xinjiang and Tibet have great prestige, can such an old-fashioned person come forward to lead Sichuan and Tibet? Impossible, so what is so special about Sichuan and Tibet?

There are many different opinions, and no one has an accurate statement, but everyone knows that it was the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen who personally came to plead for Kozang and Kawakizakura to be released!

"It's not impossible, but you are too young. I need to ask the Sandaime."

"it is good."

Kakashi didn't think that deeply, and didn't want to think about why the B-rank mission required the Hokage's intervention. He just felt that it was a bit troublesome, but it could wait.

The Byakugan Ninja hung up a sign saying he was leaving temporarily and immediately ran upstairs.

Kakashi turned around only to find that Kawazo had disappeared from behind him, leaving only a lazy dotted line.

"Where are the people!?"

Turning around, Kakashi discovered that Kawazo had already pushed aside the sign and taken out the B-rank mission scroll that the ninja had just picked out.

"You! Chuan Zang, you stole..."

"Hush! How can you call it stealing! Go away!"

"Huh? Ah...ah?"
