But the ever-increasing affection reveals the other person's turbulent state of mind.

"Hey, Haneda, you're pretty cool today, you've got a whole repertoire of things to say."

At that moment, Obito walked over, put his arm around Haneda's shoulder, and laughed.

“Of course, I’ve always been a cool person.” Haneda rolled his eyes at Obito.

"Ha ha……"

Obito turned his head away, thinking about how Haneda, who usually didn't talk much to his classmates, was now engaged in a heated debate with a group of scholars tonight, and something felt off.

However, the result was good, and Obito didn't think much of it.

Just then, the waiter came over with a plate.

The plate was filled with exquisitely sliced ​​meat, and the aroma of meat wafted from the nose, making the three of them drool.

"Yosh, I'm going to dig in!"

Obito unceremoniously picked up a piece of meat and prepared to stuff it into his mouth.

Before he could even make a move, he was interrupted by another pair of chopsticks.

"What are you doing, Haneda? Are you looking for trouble?" Obito pouted.

"Are you an idiot?" Haneda looked at Obito with the same eyes that looked at a fool.

"It hasn't been baked yet, it's still covered in dirt."

Rin was afraid that Obito and Haneda would start arguing again, so she tugged at Obito's sleeve.

"Hmph~ Aren't they all pre-marinated?"

Hearing his beloved speak, Obito stubbornly retorted, but immediately forgave Haneda and placed the meat slices on the grill.

Charcoal fires sizzle over the meat slices, then cooking oil is brushed on top.

Soon, the aroma of roasted meat filled the surroundings.

Two and a half minutes later, the grilled meat was almost ready.

Obito couldn't wait to stuff the grilled meat into his mouth. The scalding hot meat stimulated his taste buds, and he almost spat it out.

"Ah! It's so hot!!"

"So stupid it's pathetic, no wonder he's the worst student," Haneda couldn't help but mock.

Seeing this, Lin just covered her face and chuckled.

"Damn Haneda!!" Obito looked at Haneda, becoming increasingly agitated, and stood up abruptly.

"Idiot Obito." Haneda retorted directly, showing no mercy to Obito.

"Alright, you two, be quiet!"

Rin pressed down on Obito's head with one hand, forcing him down.

"And Haneda, you should also keep your mouth shut," Rin added, seeing Obito's indignation.

"Hehe~" Haneda chuckled. In this world without the internet, teasing Obito was one of his few sources of amusement.

On the other side of Konoha, at Kakashi's house.

"Father, I'm back."

Kakashi pushed open the door and entered. He took off his shoes, placed them flat on the shoe rack, and then went inside.

What came into view was a head of silver-white hair just like Kakashi's.

The man in front of me had regular features. Although he looked rather ordinary, he was kind of handsome after a few more glances.

Undoubtedly, his name is Hatake Sakumo, the man known as the White Fang of Konoha.

This person was Kakashi's father.

However, the renowned White Fang of Konoha had a look of weariness and confusion in his eyes.

His hair was disheveled and looked like it hadn't been styled for days.

Moreover, there was smeared black under his eyes, and he looked listless, as if he hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time.

Kakashi looked at his father, his mouth slightly open as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.

"Kakashi, is there something you want to tell me?" Sakumo forced a smile and asked.

"No, nothing." Kakashi walked straight into his bedroom and closed the door.

“This child…” Sakumo shook his head, his voice rising slightly.

Have you had dinner yet?

"Yes. I've already eaten."

"Remember to go to bed early; staying up late is bad for your health."

……

Kakashi, sprawled on the bed, stared blankly at the ceiling for a moment.

He recalled the villagers' accusations against his father these past few days, and then remembered Haneda's words, and murmured to himself:

"Ninja, which is more important, the mission or your comrades...?"

Chapter 005 Obito's Outrageous School Route

The next day, early morning.

Haneda got up early to wash up. Unlike Obito, he wasn't late every day.

After having breakfast, Haneda had just left the Uchiha clan compound when he remembered that Obito had been singled out and criticized by the teacher yesterday.

"Hmm~ I'd better call out to Obito, lest he be late again."

Arriving at Obito's house, Haneda politely knocked on the door.

"Grandma, I'm looking for Obito. Let's go to school together."

Not long after, an elderly woman with a hunchback opened the door. Looking at the familiar face, she called upstairs:

"Obito, Haneda is here to pick you up for school."

"Hmm? Haneda? Let me take a nap a little longer, Grandma."

A weak, listless voice came from upstairs.

"This child..." Grandma shook her head and said gently to Yutian.

"Grandma is going to wake Obito up. Haneda, why don't you come inside and sit for a while?"

"No need, Grandma, I'll go call him," Yu Tian said with a smile.

"Okay, go ahead. He's upstairs, in the bedroom on the right side of the hallway."

Da da da……

Haneda walked down the quiet stairwell, imagining how he would torment Obito, and couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

He tiptoed to Obito's bedside, and with a crisp "snap," the blanket was completely pulled off.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Still dazed, Obito didn't react for a moment. Looking at Haneda's familiar and annoying face, he suddenly remembered something.

He rubbed his slightly flushed face and said angrily:

"You bastard Haneda! I, Obito Uchiha, will never forgive you!!!"

After saying that, Obito, still furious, raised his fist, ready to fight.

Haneda dodged Obito's punch while simultaneously grabbing Obito's fist with one hand.

"Get up, Obito. Who told you to sleep in?"

"Besides, you can't beat me, baa baa~" Haneda laughed loudly.

"Ah!!! That bastard Haneda!!!"

Just as the two were about to put their skills to the test, Grandma came up.

She smiled as she watched the two men prepare to fight.

"Breakfast is on the table, Obito. Take it with you on the way, don't be late."

"Hmm." Obito nodded, gritted his teeth and glared at Haneda, but said nothing more and went straight down the stairs.

Haneda then followed.

Watching her grandson and Xiaoyutian's retreating figures, the grandmother smiled and drifted into memories.

"Young people, you're so full of energy..."
