Chapter 38 Sakumo's mission failed

After two days, Satoru and the others finally returned to the village. As soon as they stepped into the gate of the village, Masahiro immediately felt a sense of relief.

There were too many accidents in this mission. First, a Jonin from Iwagakure Village appeared in the escort mission, and the mission level was upgraded to A level. On the way back, a traitor from Konohagakure Village appeared, and the mission was also A level. Although Masahiro didn't make much effort in these two missions, he also participated in the whole process, and there was a sense of urgency and accomplishment.

"You all go back to rest, this time I will report the mission content by myself."

"Yes, Nakajima-sensei."

When Satoru returned home, he found that Kakashi was waiting for him at the door.

"It's rare, waiting for me at the door, didn't you go on a mission?"

"Tsk, are you okay? I heard that you encountered a Jonin in your mission."

Although Kakashi's tone was cold, he still heard concern for Satoru from his words.

"Do I look like something is wrong?"

Satoru spread his hands and smiled, turning a circle in front of Kakashi.

"It's okay if nothing happens."

After speaking, Kakashi turned around and left directly.

"He is really a tsundere little brother."

Watching Kakashi's retreating figure, Satoru felt relieved and happy.

Time slowly passed again amidst the busy tasks. This trip directly solved two Jonin, which made Nakajima's ninja squad famous.

Even Masahiro and Miwa received a lot of admiration.

Four years slowly passed, Satoru hasn't carried out any tasks for half a year, because he has been trying to master Cursed Technique Lapse Reversal.

But for some reason, Satoru clearly knows the principle of mastering Cursed Technique Lapse Reversal, but he has never been able to perform Cursed Technique Lapse Reversal.

Now Satoru is ten years old, although he has not mastered Reverse Cursed Technique, but just through the forward technique 'Blue', Satoru's strength has reached the level of Jonin.

At present, Satoru can master all kinds of extensions of 'Blue', such as high-speed movement, instant movement, and so on.

"Could it be that I don't have the talent to master Reverse Cursed Technique?"

Sometimes, Satoru would fall into deep self-doubt.

If he doesn't master Cursed Technique Reversal, he has no sense of security at all. Like the earth-shattering battles in the later period, if there is no Cursed Technique Reversal, he basically can't participate.

"Forget it, let's end here today."

The matter of mastering Reverse Cursed Technique is not in a hurry, he has already asked Nakajima-sensei for a year off, and there is still half a year left. If he cannot master Reverse Cursed Technique in the remaining half a year, then he can only learn Satoru in battle.

But today when Satoru returned to the village, he suddenly felt a bit strange in the village, and everyone seemed to be secretly staring at him.

"He is the son of White Fang."

"It's a pity, I really don't know how their family will live in the village in the future."

Various discussions similar to this kind of language reached Satoru's ears, which directly made Satoru frown, and then suddenly seemed to think of something, and directly used teleportation to return home.

When he arrived at the door of the house, Satoru found that Kakashi was sitting at the door with a very gloomy face.

"Brother."

Seeing Satoru coming back, Kakashi quickly called out, his tone was a bit hoarse.

"Okay, I know, leave it to me, I will solve it."

Satoru touched Kakashi's white hair, then turned around and walked into the house, and found Sakumo kneeling on the ground, closing his eyes and resting, his face looked very haggard.

"You're back?"

Hearing the movement in front of him, Sakumo opened his eyes. Sakumo now is completely different from before.

"I didn't expect you to fail the mission, father."

"Your father is not a god, isn't it normal to fail the mission?"

Hatake Sakumo showed a smile, but no matter how you look at this smile, it feels very reluctant.

"But the cost of this mission failure is a bit big."

This mission failure has caused a huge loss to the village. To put it bluntly, he can now be regarded as a sinner in the village.

"Do you remember a question I asked you before, father, if the mission conflicts with the life of a teammate, how would you choose? At that time, you told me without hesitation that you would choose to save your teammates. Now it seems that you have done it, father, you have set a very good example for me and Kakashi."

"No matter what happens, I will put the life of my teammates first, this is also my ninja way."

"Why does father have to be in this state, father did very well, he did not violate your ninja way."

"But..."

"But father can't stand the condemnation of the villagers? Does father care so much about what others think?"

Although Satoru has already put on his eye mask now, Sakumo can still feel Satoru's eyes staring at him.

"Father, these eyes of mine can see the future, do you know what future I saw?"

Satoru's tone was a bit aggressive, and for a while, Sakumo felt that he was falling behind in momentum with his son.

"I saw that father couldn't stand the condemnation of the villagers and committed suicide by cutting his belly."

Hearing Satoru's words, Sakumo's face did not change at all, perhaps he also thought of such a future, or now he has the idea of ​​apologizing with death.

"I also saw Kakashi, I saw Kakashi become a cold and ruthless ninja because of his father's death, he became a person completely opposite to his father, a person who can attack the ninjas in the village in order to complete the task."

Satoru's tone was a bit excited, and Satoru at this time was completely different from him usually, Satoru had never lost his temper before.

"Father, do you want Kakashi to become a cold and ruthless ninja?"

Satoru directly questioned Sakumo.

"Is it? I didn't expect that the future Kakashi would become such a person?"

Sakumo closed his eyes, and a tear slipped from the corner of his eyes. He didn't think Satoru was lying to him. Although seeing the future is hard to believe, Sakumo believes in his child.

"Father, I think you should be clear, why these civilians know the details of the failure of the mission, this is the conspiracy of the village, do you want to sacrifice yourself for the conspiracy of the village?

People like father, I think even if they die, they should die on the battlefield.

Father, you are the one with half an arm of the Hokage sleeve."

What is the concept of half an arm of the Hokage sleeve, when the previous Hokage had an accident and did not establish the next Hokage, the person with half an arm of the Hokage sleeve can directly become the Hokage.
