Chapter 374 Group Cultivation, Master's Wife Hua Ling is Pregnant
"Minato-sensei, I also want to train in the Flying Thunder God Technique. And I want to join the Anbu!" After a hearty meal, Kakashi stared intently at Minato Namikaze and made his request.
"Kakashi, you're joining the Anbu too?" Before Minato Namikaze could speak, Kushina, who was clearing the dishes, couldn't help but exclaim in gossip.
As he spoke, he secretly glanced at the silent Rin Nohara out of the corner of his eye. Was this Kakashi's response to Rin's devotion?
I'm swooning! I'm swooning! The taste of love has arrived...
"Ahem..." Seeing Kushina's eyes practically sparkling with excitement, almost ready to play matchmaker, Minato Namikaze coughed to interrupt, signaling her to restrain herself. "Training the Flying Thunder God Technique is no problem, that's what I promised you before. However, Kakashi, the Third Hokage might not approve your application to join the Anbu!"
"Why?" Kakashi frowned and blurted out. If Rin could do it, why couldn't he?
Nohara Rin shared the same thought, looking on in confusion and mentally calling out to Ishikawa, "Didn't you say that Kakashi was once assigned to the Anbu by Minato-sensei and later became its captain? Then why is Minato-sensei saying this now?"
“Uh, you said it yourself, that was after the Yellow Flash became the Fourth Hokage.” Ishikawa replied casually, making Nohara Rin realize something instantly.
So, was Kakashi's appointment to control the Anbu after Minato became Hokage? Minato isn't the Fourth Hokage yet, and with her becoming the Three-Tails Jinchuriki and joining the Anbu, it seems there's no need for Kakashi to join anymore!
"Hehe, Kakashi, don't overthink it. Your reputation as the legendary Sannin of Konoha is still quite prestigious among the new generation of ninjas. So the Third Hokage won't let you disappear from the battlefield. Rin is just an exception..." Minato Namikaze chuckled awkwardly, though he himself had his own unspoken grievances.
God knows how much he pleaded with the Third Hokage to let Rin join the Anbu, and now Kakashi wants to join too? Are you kidding me...?
Konoha needs elite Anbu members, but it also needs genius ninjas who can intimidate enemy nations and bear their names.
For example, the legendary Sannin of Konoha, the Yellow Flash, and now the representative of the new generation, Kakashi Hatake, one of the three young Sannin of Konoha.
“But…” Kakashi tried to speak up, but Minato Namikaze waved him off, “Alright, we’ll talk about this later. Now, you two come with me.”
As they were talking, Minato gave Kushina a look, then patted Kakashi and Rin on the shoulders with one hand each. In a flash of golden light, the three of them disappeared!
"This is the Flying Thunder God Technique!!" In a flash, Ishikawa saw the three of them appear in an ancient building perched on a rock wall.
He absolutely must learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, this space-time ninjutsu!
"Alright, this is my secret training ground. Now, let's start with the simplest Flying Thunder God Technique..." Minato Namikaze, unaware of the burning gaze of Ishikawa's spirit within Rin, sat down cross-legged and began the lesson.
Upon hearing this, Kakashi immediately listened attentively, while Ishikawa and Rin, who had taken notes, continued to ask questions about the various doubts they had summarized...
While Ishikawa was studying intensively, in Konoha 61, on the other side...
"Teacher, is there a mission you called me here for?" In the Hokage's office, Ishikawa's clone pretended to be calm, but inwardly he felt something was wrong.
The main body is cultivating over there, so please don't assign him any difficult tasks at this time!
"Yes, I have a task that's giving me a headache that I need to trouble you with, Ishikawa."
Just as Ishikawa's clone was feeling uneasy, Kakashi the Fifth Hokage rubbed his temples and sighed softly.
"Um, um..."
"Is it dangerous?" Seeing Kakashi's hesitant and somewhat flustered expression, Ishikawa's clone felt a sudden unease.
"Danger? Not at all." Seeing Ishikawa's nervousness, Kakashi waved his hand sheepishly, then gritted his teeth and said, "Ahem, um, Karin is pregnant..."
"Phew... just pregnancy?" Ishikawa's clone, who had thought it was something serious, breathed a sigh of relief, but then his eyes widened and he looked strange. "Pre-pregnancy!!"
Hana is pregnant! Is this a sign of either Hatake Rin or Hatake Obito?! This is so sudden…
However, considering that Kakashi has been married for almost two months now, and that the two are newlyweds, Ishikawa's clone was quite understanding and offered his blessings.
"Ahem, that's it. So I'd like to ask you to protect Hana Rin in secret, at least during the first three months of her pregnancy, so that nothing unexpected happens!" Seeing that Ishikawa had calmed down, Kakashi finally breathed a sigh of relief and spoke frankly.
Although other members of the secret service could do the same, he still trusted Ishikawa the most when Ishikawa wasn't on a mission.
After all, the Akatsuki and Orochimaru are still lurking in the shadows, and if something unexpected happens and Hana is captured and taken hostage, he'll be in for a real headache!
Therefore, this matter must be prevented from happening again, after all, he still vividly remembers the night of the Nine-Tailed Fox.
Although Hana Rin is not a Jinchūriki, as the Hokage's wife, it would be quite troublesome if she were captured by someone with ulterior motives, and it could potentially endanger Konoha!
"No problem, leave this to me." Ishikawa's clone patted his chest and assured him, his worries turning to joy.
Three months? That's a good task...
In this way, the main body will have ample time to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, and the plan to steal the body will proceed smoothly and in an orderly manner.
"Then I'll leave it to you! Um, let's invite Karin, Taro, Jiro, Sasuke, and Sakura over for a celebratory dinner tonight." Kakashi invited with a smile; it had been a long time since they had a meal together to strengthen their team spirit.
This is a good opportunity to get together. These disciples are now his right-hand men, and they are the future pillars of Konoha. It is important to focus on cultivating their bonds.
"Okay." Ishikawa's clone nodded, then thought of someone and looked puzzled. "By the way, teacher, shouldn't we invite Jonin Junto to come along?"
This is one of the sponsors of our future junior apprentice; it would be a bit much not to invite him...
"Runtu?" Kakashi smiled as he thought of this as well, then shook his head slightly. "He went to carry out a very special mission for me and hasn't been in Konoha for a while."
"Carrying out a mission for you, Master?" Ishikawa's clone asked in surprise and curiosity. Kakashi was the Fifth Hokage now; what kind of mission could he possibly have?
“It’s an old friend from a long time ago. This mission is a continuation of the one I had back then!” Kakashi sighed, seeing that Ishikawa still looked bewildered, and then took out two movie tickets from the drawer and handed them over.
"By the way, you haven't seen the movie yet! Go ahead, you can bring Karin along to watch it and relax a bit."
"The Great Adventure of Princess Kazeki: The Wind and Cloud Princess??"
Ishikawa's clone took the movie ticket, glanced at it, and suddenly realized what it meant.
So, Runtu went to pay off your CP (couple) emotional debt on behalf of Kakashi-sensei?
No wonder they're best buddies forever!
Teachers, you guys are really creative...
