Naruto, be my son.

They glared at Uchiha Itachi.

He looked at Shisui again.

"Shisui! Even if you don't want to participate, we will still take action! The dignity of our Uchiha clan cannot be trampled by outsiders! We are not as weak as you! We are not the running dogs of Konoha's high-ranking officials!"

……

……

Thanks to the book friend "20211013203412192" for the reward and support! Thank you, boss! The boss is generous!

Thanks to "Brother, let's have three or five bottles together", "Are there any good names left", "Bar Watch", "Sword in the Spirit" and other big guys for their support!

Chapter 25 Hidden Injury! White-haired little devil, don’t you feel guilty?

"Sasuke, go back first!"

Itachi sent Sasuke away and said to him with a smile: "Brother will be back soon, you wait at home for a while, at most half an hour."

"...Oh!" Sasuke pouted, looking a little unhappy.

I think my brother finally took a day off to spend time with him.

As a result, I was entangled in some things again.

He looked back every few steps and saw that his brother was chatting with Shisui and didn't even look back at him.

Sasuke pouted.

He snorted and muttered to himself: "My brother is always like this!"

the other side.

"Itachi, thank you. I didn't expect that I would need your help." Uchiha Shisui has a very conspicuous bulbous nose.

He forced a smile and said to Uchiha Itachi: "If it weren't for you, I might have been entangled by them for a long time today."

"Is it about Gan, Wen, and Cui?" Itachi asked, "The guards want to take revenge on that Whitebeard?"

Shisui didn't hide it: "Yes!"

He smiled bitterly and said, "I have advised them many times, but they didn't listen to me. Instead, they said that I was becoming weaker and weaker. But rationally speaking, we really shouldn't touch Whitebeard."

"That giant named Whitebeard is too special. He is very likely to have established a bond with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of our Konoha Village. If we touch him, how will the Konoha high-level officials view us?"

Itachi thought about it and came up with a possibility: "Hokage-sama and the others will think we did it on purpose!"

"That's it." Shisui nodded.

He continued, "The relationship between Uchiha and Konoha is already very tense. If something unexpected happens to the Jinchūriki at this time, or even affects the power of the tailed beasts..."

"Konoha will completely distrust us." Shisui said solemnly: "Civil war may break out!"

Uchiha Itachi was suddenly shocked.

civil war!

Shisui smiled and said, "So no matter what... I won't agree to them. Even if they say I'm weak, I will stick to my original idea and avoid a civil war."

Itachi warned: "But they won't let you down just because you refuse. They might take action on their own."

“That’s what bothers me, too.”

Shisui sighed.

Two young men from the Uchiha clan, whose combined ages were no more than thirty years old, were discussing such a major political issue that concerned many aspects. This scene was extremely strange no matter how you looked at it.

But this is the ninja world.

Generally precocious.

……

"Cough cough cough..." Whitebeard coughed repeatedly on the way. The injuries he suffered in the Battle of Marineford were indeed healed due to the time travel. However, the hidden injuries before that were not healed.

After years of fighting on the sea and hundreds of fierce battles, Whitebeard had already accumulated a lot of wounds.

Normally, when on the Moby Dick, Whitebeard would need to have an IV tube inserted and receive some potions.

There were many female nurses watching him.

Now, Whitebeard, who has traveled to the ninja world, has not had an IV drip for several days, as the hidden disease in his body makes him feel more and more painful.

Muscles, organs, bones...

There is a slight feeling of discomfort.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Naruto immediately realized that something was wrong with Whitebeard. He asked anxiously, "You've coughed more than a dozen times along the way."

"Hu——" White Beard let out a heavy breath, and with this breath, the street seemed to be swept by a gust of wind.

The smoke and dust were blown into the air.

Whitebeard pressed the tail end of Kusukumokiri into the ground, supporting his huge and sturdy body, trying to ease the discomfort in his body.

a long time.

He responded to Naruto's increasingly anxious expression, "Gulala! Stupid, stupid son! Dad, I'm fine!"

"Is that so?" Naruto scratched his head: "Dad, you are not lying, right?"

"Stupid son!" Whitebeard gave Naruto a loving snap of the fingers.

Naruto squatted on the ground, covering his head and screaming in pain.

"Why would Dad lie to you?" Whitebeard grinned at him and said, "Compared to a few days ago, Dad is in better shape than ever before!"

Whitebeard did not lie in this statement, because a few days ago, he was still in the war at the top and was on the verge of death.

Now, his physical condition.

It's definitely better than it was back then.

Taking Naruto back to his little house, as night fell completely, Whitebeard leaned against the side of the house to rest.

This has become his regular resting place.

So much so that the neighbors nearby didn't dare pass by where White Beard was sitting.

now.

Naruto in the house was taking a shower and preparing to rest.

The white-bearded man outside the house was resting with his eyes closed.

"Do you need to go to Konoha Hospital?" This sentence came from beside Whitebeard, but it was not said by Naruto.

But Kakashi said it.

Kakashi had a complicated expression, he knew he shouldn't alert an outsider, especially an outsider who had built a bond with Naruto and had snatched away his teacher Minato's son.

but.

Whenever he saw Naruto, he always felt a little guilty, and Kakashi didn't know why...

So he reminded Whitebeard.

"Gulala!" Whitebeard was not afraid of his hidden injury being known to others. He opened his eyes and grinned, "Even the most powerful hospital can't completely cure it."

Kakashi opened his dead eyes and said, "We have to go and take a look, right? There are still many excellent medical ninjas in Konoha Hospital."

Whitebeard asked jokingly, "Why do you care about me so much, little white-haired kid? Don't tell me, you want to be my son, do you?"

"...It's purely for Naruto." Kakashi frowned.

"Oh?" Whitebeard said, "You are very familiar with my stupid son? It doesn't look like that!"

Kakashi was silent for a moment.

He began, "Naruto's father, he's my sensei. I'm not referring to you, but his blood-related father."

"Naruto may not know me, but I know him...Puff!" Kakashi's eyes suddenly widened.

The severe pain from his abdomen forced him to kneel on one knee, and his internal organs were twisted!

"What are you doing?" Kakashi almost vomited bitterness as he looked at Whitebeard.

It was Whitebeard who suddenly poked Kakashi in the abdomen with a finger. The huge force almost made Kakashi faint on the spot.

The result, this look.

His hair stood on end!

Because Kakashi saw Whitebeard's extremely gloomy expression, and a sense of silent oppression enveloped Kakashi's body.

The air around seemed to be distorted and became extremely silent.

"Little white-haired devil." The white-bearded man glanced at him and said, "Then how can you feel at ease watching my stupid son suffer? His biological father is your teacher. Before your teacher died, he should have asked you to take care of his son, right?"

"Even if you didn't say it, you still have such responsibilities and obligations, right? What have you done over the years? My stupid son was bullied in Konoha, you should know about it, right?"

The annoyance that surged in Kakashi's heart disappeared without a trace.

He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.

Facing Whitebeard's oppressive questioning.

He was speechless.

……

……

Happy National Day! I've recommended it! Please read it! Reading it again is really important for new books~

The young author is typing away!

I write, write, write!!

Chapter 26: Mr. Whitebeard, how did you survive to this day?

The air fell into a quiet and dead silence. Kakashi covered his abdomen and was unable to stand up straight.

But there was a sense of guilt in my heart.

It's far worse than physical pain.

He didn't know how to answer every question from Whitebeard.

Because Kakashi knew that what he was doing was like an ungrateful person.

Teacher Minato was very kind to him at first, but he did not take care of Teacher Minato's children in the same way.

Kakashi didn't look Whitebeard in the eyes.

He didn't know it was his own guilt.

Or is it my own awe.

"I……"

Kakashi finally said, "I think you should go to Konoha Hospital. This will be good for both you and Naruto. If there is something wrong with your body, you have to find a way to cure it."

He did not directly answer Whitebeard's question.

Instead, he brought the topic back to the topic.

"You are Naruto, this kid..." Kakashi took a deep breath and said what was in his heart: "You are the only relative."

this moment.

Kakashi completely agreed with the relationship between Whitebeard and Naruto, so he advised Whitebeard to go to Konoha Hospital for a check-up.

Because he knew that Naruto was an orphan.

Naruto finally found a "father", but what if this "father" also leaves him because of physical discomfort.

That Naruto is so miserable.

……

Konoha Hospital.

Kakashi still had his eyes wide open. He felt that the person who needed to come and take a look was not only Whitebeard, but also himself, Kakashi.
