Chapter 32: There is good news (Please follow and read)
He wanted to refute, but Kakashi didn't know how to say it.
After all, the appearance he usually showed didn't seem to be much different from what Sakukaze said.
As for saying something unpleasant, the current Kakashi really couldn't say that kind of thing.
Opening his mouth, Kakashi couldn't find any words to refute for a while.
But it didn't matter, his, Kakashi's, wisdom couldn't possibly be limited to small quarrels.
Since the quarrel couldn't be won, then change the subject; after all, this was the best coping method summarized by Kakashi and Sakukaze after fighting for so long.
Moreover, he did have serious business when he came this time.
"Not discussing these useless things with you, I came to find you this time for serious business
Decisively cutting off the previous topic, Kakashi spoke up directly.
After all, it was a matter of hurting the enemy by a thousand while losing eight hundred, so Sakukaze had no intention of dwelling on it.
Upon hearing Kakashi say this, Sakukaze also asked directly:
"Hm? What is it? Just say it."
Hearing this, Kakashi didn't keep him in suspense and said directly:
"Teacher Fugaku just notified me that he wants the two of us to go to the Hokage Office tomorrow morning.
Oh, right, I happened to run into the doctor when I was coming over just now.
The doctor asked me to tell you that after a day of observation, you can be discharged, but if there are any subsequent issues, remember to come back for a follow-up check in time."
After finishing, Kakashi, who had already quietly moved to the window, didn't give Sakukaze time to answer and opened the window to make his escape.
He had a premonition that if he didn't run faster, he might be on the receiving end of a genjutsu.
"Hm. Hmm!"
Sure enough, the moment Kakashi left, Sakukaze had already reacted to the problem in Kakashi's words just now.
What did he mean by saying he had just run into the doctor, and what did he mean by the doctor saying he could be discharged?
So, Kakashi was completely doing it on purpose to watch him have a headache and make a fool of himself, right!
Having realized this, Sakukaze immediately wanted to hit Kakashi with a genjutsu to let him know what it means to play with fire.
But unfortunately, no matter how fast Sakukaze's reaction speed and technique execution speed were, he couldn't be faster than Kakashi, who had already planned his escape.
So now, Sakukaze could only rage helplessly in the hospital.
Looking at Sakukaze, whose face was full of anger and whose eyes were almost popping out, Uchiha Qifeng, who had been on the side the whole time, couldn't help but reveal a smile.
You have to know, Sakukaze had always appeared very mature since he was a child. Uchiha Qifeng had never seen a situation like this where he couldn't control his expressions.
It seems that Sakukaze has also found a companion he can entrust his back to.
Uchiha Qifeng thought silently in his heart while watching Sakukaze's "furious" appearance.
Perhaps, at a time when Sakukaze himself hadn't even noticed, he had already undergone a transformation.
Time passed quickly, and after Uchiha Sakukaze was successfully discharged, it soon reached the next morning.
Standing at the entrance of the Hokage Building, Uchiha Sakukaze looked eagerly at Kakashi, who was waiting there.
Although a night had passed, Sakukaze's thought of loosening Kakashi's muscles and bones had not faded.
Or rather, this was already his biggest thought right now. Even, Sakukaze didn't care much about why the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, was looking for him.
Regarding what he did yesterday, Kakashi also felt very guilty.
So, upon seeing Uchiha Sakukaze's smiling expression, he directly and quietly increased the distance between himself and Sakukaze.
At the same time, Kakashi also reminded Sakukaze to try and divert his attention.
"Ahem, Sakukaze, let's hurry inside, don't keep the Hokage waiting. Yesterday, I saw that Teacher Fugaku's expression was quite serious."
Unfortunately, Sakukaze didn't take Kakashi's reminder to heart at all.
Just kidding, if there were an emergency, could the Third Hokage wait for them all night?
As for Uchiha Fugaku, on which day is his expression not serious?
However, Sakukaze was not someone who didn't understand the urgency of matters, and he didn't intend to make things difficult for Kakashi at the entrance of the Hokage Building.
So, upon hearing Kakashi's words, Sakukaze just sneered and then said:
"Heh, Kakashi, you had better pray that what happens later can distract me. Otherwise, I will make sure to loosen your bones well."
Hearing Sakukaze's threat, Kakashi only felt that cold sweat was about to break out on his head.
Although there would certainly be no danger, he couldn't beat Sakukaze right now. If there wasn't a good solution, a sound beating would definitely be unavoidable.
He wanted to quibble a few more words, but Sakukaze didn't give him the chance at all and directly lifted his leg to walk into the Hokage Building.
Seeing this, Kakashi wiped the non-existent sweat from his head and stepped forward to follow.
Regarding the arrival of Sakukaze and Kakashi, Sarutobi Hiruzen had already given instructions.
So after the two entered the Hokage Building, a ninja immediately appeared to lead them to the Hokage Office.
Although they didn't know what the Hokage wanted with them, neither Sakukaze nor Kakashi felt nervous; they were even a little expectant.
Because from the performance of the ninja leading the way, it could be seen that they definitely had good news today.
There was no helping it; although the leading ninja didn't say anything, it wasn't hard to guess the nature of this summons from the appreciation, surprise, and envy revealed in his occasional glances.
What's more, when had there ever been a leading ninja when they came before?
Making it so formal today, it didn't look like there was any bad news.
Sure enough, just as Sakukaze and Kakashi had guessed, after they entered the Hokage Office, a proud smile appeared directly on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face.
"Ah, Sakukaze and Kakashi are here. Don't worry, there is good news for calling you here today."
Without any extra nonsense, Sarutobi Hiruzen directly pointed out the main tone.
Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, Sakukaze and Kakashi looked at each other, both showing curious expressions.
"Hokage-sama, what is the matter that requires you to specially call the two of us here today?"
Without hesitation, Sakukaze asked directly.
Although Kakashi didn't speak, his expression was also full of confusion, clearly meaning the same thing as Sakukaze.
Unfortunately, facing the two's confusion, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't answer directly but kept them in suspense.
"Sakukaze, Kakashi, how do you two feel about your gains during this time since graduation? Is there anything you are dissatisfied with?"
Regarding this, although Sakukaze and Kakashi were confused inside, they could only suppress it for the time being to answer Sarutobi Hiruzen's inquiry first.
