Chapter 60
🕑 Added 2023-10-20 22:06:10 +0000 UTCKakashi looked at Tazuna standing to the side, his face not changing much from Yoshiro Kinoshita's explanation.
“Oh, he stopped with us to heal his injuries, but he also helped with the housework quite well,” then Tazuna’s daughter came out and calmly explained.
“I see,” the Jounin nodded sadly in response, stealing a glance at his team of Genin.
From what he managed to notice when he first woke up, of the entire team only Sasuke remained vigilant, while Sakura and Naruto most likely would not have had time to defend themselves from a sudden attack.
“You... shinobi...” Kakashi’s next words brought silence!
Sasuke, who was standing next to him, immediately armed himself with a kunai and stared at Yoshiro with a gaze, which greatly stunned Naruto and Sakura, but then they also showed their readiness for battle.
It would be a disaster if they were attacked by enemy shinobi while the teacher was unable to fight!
“Don’t be so nervous, gentlemen, shinobi from Konoha.” I have no evil intentions. Otherwise you would have already...” Yoshiro shook his head.
To which Kakashi responded with an understanding nod. He would not have announced his guess so easily if he had not held the same opinion.
There was a smile on Yoshiro's face. He was well aware of the impossibility of earning the complete trust of the Jounin of Konoha in his person. But as for the kids... it's quite possible, it's worth a try!
With such thoughts, he slowly undressed, exposing his wounded body for everyone to see.
- M? – Sasuke widened his eyes in shock.
Naruto followed the Uchiha's example, and Sakura exclaimed in horror, involuntarily covering her mouth with her hand.
His entire body was covered with abrasions and bruises with several burns and other traces of ninjutsu.
Survival with such serious injuries is in itself akin to a miracle.
“I would probably have gone to the next world if it weren’t for the help of Miss Tsunami,” buttoning himself back up, Yoshiro cast a grateful glance at Tazuna’s daughter.
- Come on, it’s not worth it. I was just about to bury you when, out of the blue, you came to your senses...” Tsunami answered with a straight face.
In response, Yoshiro scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
- So you were attacked by shinobi too? – Naruto asked curiously.
- Naruto! Think about what you are asking! – Sakura hastily pulled him away.
Which is why Yoshiro just smiled meaningfully. Of course, he was looking for the children’s favor, but laying everything out at once was also not an option. After all, then he will lose the touch of mystery and enigma.
-Are you from a shinobi village? – Sasuke asked curiously.
After this question, all eyes focused on Yoshiro.
“No, now I’m more of a wandering shinobi, without a stake or a yard,” he said with a sad sigh.
-What kind of wandering shinobi is this? – Naruto scratched his turnip.
- Idiot! – Sasuke looked at him like he was an idiot.
- Shut up! You are an idiot yourself! – the blond immediately flared up.
“Stop yelling as much as you can...” Kakashi helplessly hit his forehead with his hand.
– What did you listen to in class? Wandering shinobi, for various reasons, do not have their own village, that’s why they are wandering,” Sakura pulled Naruto towards her and patiently explained, not for a second ceasing to call him a complete idiot.
– Of course, I understand that your team is here on a mission, but do you happen to have other goals? – Yoshiro scratched the back of his head carefree.
Why did Sasuke grin wryly: Are they already suspects?
Yes, that’s how they laid out their goal, even if there was one! Certainly...
Sakura first looked at Yoshiro strangely, and then turned her gaze to Naruto, who was hovering somewhere in the clouds.
How much they both look like idiots!
- Oh, don’t worry, we don’t have any other goal. By the way, my name is Uzumaki Naruto, future Hokage, dattebayo! – smiling with all his teeth, the blond man expressively patted himself on the chest.
Yoshiro only made a good impression on Naruto because he didn't look at him like the vast majority of Konoha residents.
- Uzumaki? You have a wonderful surname...” Yoshiro raised his eyebrows at the mention of the guy’s surname, but sadness settled in the depths of his eyes.
Great last name?
Which is why Sakura cast a doubtful glance at Naruto. She saw nothing beautiful in this surname!
Sasuke looked at him with curiosity. He had always considered the Uzumaki surname to be an ordinary family name. But it seems that everything is not so simple...
And Kakashi glanced briefly at Yoshiro and said nothing.
– Do you know something about her?! Naruto exclaimed excitedly, his blue eyes shining like never before.
Until this day, no one had ever been interested in his last name. The guy even began to think that she was the most ordinary one.
How can he not be excited by the mention of his last name, albeit such an insignificant one? Maybe you can find out about your parents...
- Don’t you know anything? – Yoshiro was quite surprised at Naruto’s violent reaction, and then pointed to Kakashi’s sleeve. – On the standard uniform of Jounin and other Konoha shinobi there is the symbol of the Uzumaki Clan, symbolizing the connection between Konoha and the Uzumaki.
– Long ago, in the Land of Whirlpools, the Head of Uzushiogakure, Ashina Uzumaki, signed a friendly agreement with the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama. This event left a noticeable mark on the history of the entire shinobi community! – Yoshiro Kinoshita said with a sigh.
Sasuke and Sakura looked at each other in surprise at what they heard. They didn’t know about it, although they spent their whole lives in Konoha...
