Chapter 401 Night Talk At The Rooftop
Chapter 401 Night Talk At The Rooftop
The night was cold, and Kakashi sat on the rooftop of the inn, looking at the moon in the sky.
'How many years have I looked this bright round moon?'
Kakashi can't remember.
He only knew that when he came into this world, he was looking at this bright round moon.
He looked it when he was refining the chakra, and he was looking it when he was training his swordsmanship.
Unfortunately, the moon in this world is not the moon from his previous life.
It has signs of life, and even the last boss in this world is there.
Kakashi sometimes thinks, if there is Master Roshi in this world, he will be able to destroy the moon with his Kamehameha, with that, he won't have to work so hard.
Unfortunately, there is no Master Roshi in this world.
Kakashi sighed and murmured: "I'm really tired."
At this time, a big hand was placed on Kakashi's shoulder.
Kakashi was taken aback for a moment as he didn't notice someone is coming this close to him. 'Am I too lax?'
"Kakashi, what are you thinking about?"
"Jiraiya-sama, why are you here? How is Naruto?" Kakashi asked.
Jiraiya sat next to Kakashi and said: "Naruto's injury has recovered almost with the help of Kyuubi's Chakra, and he should wake up tomorrow."
"Is that so? That's good then." Kakashi nodded.
Jiraiya then looked at Kakashi seriously.
"Kakashi, seeing you this time, I feels that you are a little different from before," Jiraiya said.
Hearing this, Kakashi lightly said with a smile: "Really? People will always change."
"No, this change is not in personality, but in…feeling."
Jiraiya said, looking at Kakashi's left eye that was covered by the forehead protector.
Kakashi was taken aback, 'Is it discovered by Jiraiya-sama?'
Jiraiya may seem stupid and idiotic, but in fact, he is smart.
Today, when facing the four-tailed Naruto, if Kakashi used Sharingan, it can be solved quickly.
But Kakashi didn't use it.
There are only two reasons for this. Either Kakashi doesn't think it is necessary, or Kakashi's Sharingan cannot be used.
Thinking about the reasons, Jiraiya is more inclined to the latter.
Because Jiraiya remembers that the reason why Kakashi disappeared for two years seemed to be to deal with the Sharingan's problems.
Now that Kakashi comes back early, it is unknown whether the Sharingan's problem is resolved or not.
Therefore, Jiraiya tried to look at Kakashi's left eye at this time.
"Jiraiya-sama, I'm sorry but I can't tell you about these things." Kakashi apologized.
"Sure enough, that is the case. Forget it, it doesn't matter if you don't say it. It's okay as long as your heart is still with Konoha." Jiraiya smiled heartily.
Kakashi smiled and didn't answer, but moved to another topic.
"Jiraiya-sama, how good do you think Naruto is right now?" Kakashi asked.
After hearing Kakashi's question, Jiraiya contemplate for a while, and then said, "Naruto? When it comes to strength, Naruto already has reached Jōnin-level, but when it comes to the mind of doing things, he is still far from Jōnin. After all, there won't many mission experiences when he followed me, so Naruto is far from enough to deal with some things."
"It's about the same as I thought." Kakashi nodded.
"Kakashi, Naruto's progress is very fast. I plan to teach him Sage Mode a year later. At that time, Naruto may be able to surpass me." Jiraiya said with a smile.
"Sage Mode? There are a lot of things Naruto has to do this year. Training his Chakra Attribute should also be on the agenda," Kakashi said.
"Well, I have already considered about that. After some time, Naruto will start training it."
"Since Jiraiya-sama already has plans, I will not say much," Kakashi said.
"Relax, I'm still very confident in teaching Naruto. The way you teach Naruto to train with the shadow clone is really good. If it weren't for this method, I'm afraid that Naruto's progress will not be this fast." Jiraiya praised.
"This method is very good, but it can only be used by Jinchūriki like Naruto. As for ordinary people, I am afraid that they will die if they used this method."
"That's right. By the way, Kakashi, I got some information. Akatsuki is probably going to act in one year at most. At that time, I will trouble you to look after Naruto."
Kakashi frowned upon hearing this and said: "Jiraiya-sama, are you planning to face the Akatsuki alone?"
Jiraiya smiled and said: "Of course not. I will just collect some information. After all, this organization is really dangerous."
"Jiraiya-sama, don't go head-to-head with the Akatsuki. According to my investigation, the people in it are all powerful missing-nin. Even if your strength is extraordinary, you are still outnumbered."
"Don't worry, I am the one of the Legendary Sannin, the Sage of Mount Myōboku, Jiraiya-sama. I won't die so easily!"
Jiraiya laughed and immediately patted Kakashi's shoulder.
Hearing what Jiraiya said, Kakashi couldn't say anything more.
Suddenly, Jiraiya showed a wretched smile as he took a book with a red cover from his pocket and then, he handed it to Kakashi.
Kakashi was taken aback, and said, "Jiraiya-sama, this is…"
"This is the "Icha-Icha Innocence" that I spent two years writing. It is the sequel to "Icha-Icha Violence ".
Hearing this, Kakashi's expression changed when looking at the red small book.
"This, this…" Kakashi didn't know what to say for a while.
Jiraiya showed a confident smile and said: "This is my masterpiece. It will definitely satisfy you!"
"Thank you very much, Jiraiya-sama. By the way, I feel a little tired, so I will go back to sleep first. Let's continue our discussion tomorrow. Goodbye, Jiraiya-sama."
After Kakashi finished speaking, he immediately used Shunpo and disappeared from the rooftop.
Seeing this, Jiraiya smiled proudly.
"Sure enough, my Icha-Icha series is full of charm, even Kakashi can't stand the temptation. I believe as long as it is published, it will sell hotly again! Ha ha ha, I really am a genius writer!"
Jiraiya then also get back to his room to rest.
Right now, in Kakashi's room, there is a small table lamp that is on.
Kakashi was flipping through the small red book with the help of the small lamp. And his mask couldn't hide the wretched expression on his face.
From time to time, Kakashi made perverted laughter, which looked quite strange.
And in such an atmosphere, time passed by.
When Kakashi turned the last page of the book, the sky has already lit up.
"Ah, it's an amazing book. It's really a satisfying read… It's already dawn without me knowing."
