Simultaneous Travel: Becoming a Legend in the Heavens.

Chapter 5: The brotherhood of Hokage is a concept

Kakashi was slightly moved by what he heard. He knew how fast Luke could refine chakra, which was almost snail's pace.

He didn't expect that even though his ninja talent was so poor, he could increase his chakra holdings to almost the maximum value he expected through perseverance.

Especially since he has to spend a lot of time and energy to complete the work at home.

Among the people he knows, only Might Guy can match this kind of perseverance.

Kakashi's tone softened a lot, "Why do you want to learn the Shadow Clone Technique?"

"I want to create a shadow clone to help me with the ironwork."

Kakashi: "..."

He had never heard such an outrageous reason.

Seeing Kakashi's expression of "are you kidding me?", Luke's expression darkened.

"My brother will soon be old enough to attend ninja school. The registration fee is a huge expense, and the subsequent various expenses are also not a small amount...so I thought of having more people to help with the work."

"Didn't you make a lot of money before? Is that not enough?"

Kakashi asked doubtfully. Logically speaking, the Senkawa Blacksmith Shop should have made a lot of money. Even if it didn't make the Luke family rich, they should not be unable to afford to send a child to a ninja school.

Luke's voice became a little hoarse. "My father is getting old. You don't know that forging is the most harmful to the body. The Ninja School opened yesterday. The order volume was too large, so...he injured his waist."

When Kakashi heard the word "father", he lowered his eyes and turned sideways inconspicuously. He couldn't bear to hear these two words.

Seeing that Kakashi was touched, Luke took advantage of the situation and spoke earnestly.

"Although he said he was fine, I could see that he was just being stubborn. A man of his age would choose to bear the pain himself and not put the pressure on his family."

"It's not just him. My mother is getting older too. When people reach middle age, all kinds of illnesses and pains will come to them. For them, I have to save some money to prevent accidents. Money is something that you never have enough to spend."

These words reminded Kakashi of when his father passed away.

That day he leaned against his father's body and felt that he had lost the strength to even cry. No one else in the village dared to come over to avoid suspicion, and only Lu Ke came to visit.

He neither comforted nor admonished him, but just accompanied him quietly.

Kakashi had a lot of confusion at the time when he encountered such a sudden change.

I don’t understand why my father committed suicide. It was just a few rumors. I don’t understand why the people in the village called my father a coward. My father’s mission did fail and caused losses, but how do we calculate his achievements?

The title of Konoha White Fang was earned through battle after battle. His father had made countless military achievements on the battlefield, saved countless compatriots, and won countless battles. Should all these be ignored?
It wasn't until dark when they were about to leave that Lu Ke uttered his only words.

"In the world of ninja, people who don't follow the rules and regulations are called trash. However, people who don't value their companions are even worse than trash."

This sentence perfectly expressed Kakashi's complex emotions of confusion and reluctance at the time. It was also with this opportunity that the two evolved from ordinary friends to close friends.

Kakashi's voice was a little hoarse, "After the Shadow Clone Technique is lifted, the pain and fatigue suffered by the clone will be returned to the original body."

To be precise, what is returned after the shadow clone is released is experience and experience. This is a means to quickly learn or practice ninjutsu, and it can be said to be an advantage if used well.

Luke sighed, "I just want to make more money while I'm still young and can handle it. I'm an adult now, and it's time to support the family. When my brother graduates from school and becomes a ninja, life will naturally get better."

As he spoke, Lu Ke himself was moved by the sincerity in the words.

Kakashi shook his head slowly, "No need to do that, if you are short of money, I have some."

The Hatake clan is also a famous clan in Konoha. The White Fang's reputation was even higher than that of the Three Ninjas. If the Hatake clan was not so small, they would definitely be the backbone of Konoha. As the only heir of the Hatake clan, Kakashi certainly has no shortage of money.

It's over. It's over.

These words suddenly popped up in Lu Ke's mind, and he didn't know what to say for a moment. This was truly a path he had never imagined.

The good brother suddenly plays the boss role, intending to solve the problem directly from the root.

He forced a smile and shook his head firmly: "How can I take your money? We are friends, and I don't want to use money to destroy our relationship."

What kind of lines are these in a romance novel about a little white flower heroine who claims to be self-reliant but always relies on men? Lu Ke silently complained in his heart.

He didn't understand why things turned out like this, he just felt like he was getting goosebumps.

This development is not what he imagined!

Is it possible that there is a kind of consciousness in the Naruto world that makes all brotherhoods gradually become radical?

"Since we are friends, that little bit of money can't destroy our relationship."

Kakashi said seriously, and explained: "In addition, the village does not allow private teaching of ninjutsu. If you want to teach ninjutsu, both parties must be in a teacher-student relationship, and you need to report to your superiors."

Bullshit! The anime clearly teaches it randomly!
Considering the possibility of parallel worlds, quantum mechanics and other messed-up possibilities, and the fact that ordinary people were unlikely to understand the rules of ninjutsu, Lu Ke did not refute, but asked with hope in his eyes.

"Are there any exceptions?"

"The ownership of that technique belongs to you or your family."

The inventor of the Shadow Clone Technique was Tobirama Senju, who died decades ago. It is now a public ninjutsu in the village and is usually given out as a reward after a ninja completes a certain amount of tasks.

As he was speaking, Kakashi suddenly looked away. At the same time, Luke sensed that someone was coming. He deliberately delayed a beat and pretended to look in the direction Kakashi was looking.

Two masked figures appeared silently beside Kakashi.

One of them said, "Captain, we have a mission."

Anbu is a special ninja team directly commanded by the Third Hokage. Ninjas who can enter Anbu are all the best among the Chunin, and the captain of an Anbu team is at least a Jonin.

"Let's go."

Kakashi didn't waste any words and simply responded. Before leaving, he took something out of his pocket and threw it to Luke. Then the three of them formed seals with their hands and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Was that the teleportation technique just now?
How convenient.

Luke was stunned for a moment and looked at the thing in his hand. It was a small brown bag, which should be Kakashi's purse.

This... is fine, at least there is some gain, let's see what Kakashi has revealed.

Lu Ke opened his wallet and counted the banknotes inside, a total of five million taels.

He took a deep breath and clicked again with trembling hands.

It is indeed five million taels.

Is Kakashi's explosion rate a bit too high?
Lu Ke tried hard to suppress the upturned corners of his mouth and solemnly announced that from now on Kakashi would be his best friend, relative, brother.

The real kind!
