Naruto: Naruto started the Fourth Shinobi World War for me

"I promise you, Ningxia, I promise you..." Kakashi answered seriously, and even Ningxia, who was usually so dense, finally realized what he meant.

Kakashi... mistook his own words for a confession!?

Ningxia thought she was dreaming, but the lingering fragrance on her lips and teeth, and the white-haired beauty covering one eye in front of her, all proved that this was reality.

"I...Kakashi...I...This isn't my first time, I...I'm almost thirty, I..."

Ningxia didn't know what to say. He had been watched too closely by Tsunade in this life, and he had no experience in love at all in his previous life.

After a long pause, he could only tell Kakashi that he wasn't that kind of person.

"I don't mind."

Kakashi's attitude was surprisingly calm. She knew very well that someone like Ningxia would not do such a thing on her own initiative.

But... just because he doesn't want to doesn't mean others don't. The more unscrupulous ones wouldn't even need to drug him; they could just hold Ningxia down and be done with it.

She didn't care if Ningxia was a first-timer or not, as long as she was.

Ningxia wanted to say something more, but faced with Kakashi's increasingly dejected and pitiful eyes, as if he were about to be abandoned, she could only shut up in the end.

"Are we... considered a couple?"

Ningxia never dreamed that she would confirm her relationship with someone else in this way.

"Yes, a couple."

Kakashi gently took Ningxia's arm; there weren't many people around, so she could be carefree.

As the person with the lowest profile in the family, she often secretly observes others.

She was quite certain that Shisui, Yuyan, and Hongdou all liked Ningxia, and even Hong had some affection for Ningxia.

Add to that Tsunade, who occasionally writes letters from Ningxia, and it's impossible to say there's no pressure.

But since Ningxia had said such things to her, how could she possibly tolerate it? She went ahead and helped her, telling her to get through this.

If that's the case, then take responsibility for it!

"I...I'm still a little dazed, let me calm down...how about I walk around a bit?"

Ningxia pursed her lips. She'd accidentally gotten a white-haired girlfriend...not bad at all?

"Hmm~"

Kakashi even took off her headband and closed one eye. As long as she didn't let others see her Sharingan, no one would guess that she was actually Kakashi.

The two of them, like any ordinary couple, strolled around the festival, bought things, and occasionally played some small games.

"what?"

Ningxia was a little surprised to see Nonoyu setting up a stall, while Nonoyu greeted Ningxia happily.

What are you doing here?

"That's how it is..."

Nonoyu told Ningxia about the changes that had taken place at the orphanage in recent days. First of all, the money Ningxia had given them had greatly eased the orphanage's financial situation.

Secondly, Danzo had approached her and apologized, saying he shouldn't have used the orphanage's funds to threaten a child into becoming a spy.

To this end, Danzo used the funds Orochimaru had given to Konoha to renovate and invest a lot of money in the orphanage, and also covered their future schooling expenses.

He also told her that the child who went to be a spy would soon be able to return to Konoha and reunite with her.

Now, Nonou can finally catch her breath, so she simply brought the children to the festival so they could relax.

She sells snacks to earn some money, and she loves watching the children's faces when they eat sweets.

"Is that so? Then give me two apple candies."

Ningxia nodded happily, then asked for two candied apples, one for herself and one for Kakashi.

"Huh? And who is this...?"

It was only then that Nono noticed there was another person next to Ningxia, but she didn't connect the person with Kakashi.

In the entire Hidden Leaf Village, no one except Kakashi himself knows her true face, and moreover, Kakashi never takes off his mask.

Even though the woman in front of him had white hair, scars around her eyes, and a somewhat melancholic demeanor, how could she possibly be Kakashi?

"my girlfriend."

Ningxia has already accepted reality. Besides, Kakashi is really not bad. He has a delicate oval face with sharp lines and a straight nose. At this moment, he is slightly curving his lips with a hint of happiness.

Her pale skin was tinged with a blush that didn't fit her character, and the scar on her left eye didn't disrupt the overall harmony; instead, it accentuated her heroic spirit.

However, unlike her aloof appearance and temperament, she is somewhat clingy, practically a loyal older sister.

"Girlfriend?"

Nono was a little surprised, but seeing the two's intimate actions, she forced a smile and wished them well.

"Thanks."

Ningxia responded politely, then went to other stalls with Kakashi. After the two left, Nonou's smile gradually disappeared. She shook her head and secretly cheered herself up.

Noticing Yugao returning from afar, Kakashi quickly put his mask back on and covered his eyes with his headband, instantly transforming from his loyal white-haired girlfriend back into a gloomy little white-haired guy.

"Let's not talk about our relationship for now."

Kakashi knew that everyone else liked Ningxia and was afraid that this matter would put Ningxia in a difficult position.

"Um?"

Ningxia found it a bit strange, but after Kakashi repeatedly reminded her several times, she didn't go against her wishes.

"Sorry, I just ran into a few classmates."

Xiyan explained apologetically that although she had become a member of the Anbu, she still had to greet and chat with some familiar friends when she met them.

"Um, it's nothing."

Ningxia smiled and didn't mind, but he was already tired from walking around, so he planned to find a place to rest.

A moment later, Naruko returned with a large pile of snacks and souvenirs. Ningxia ruffled her little blond hair when she saw this, after all, she was just a child!

With Naruko's return, Ino, Tenten, and even Hinata and Satsuki came.

Ningxia was once again surrounded by little girls, while Kakashi watched quietly from the side, a strange look in his eyes.

She knew that Ningxia didn't show genuine affection for anyone; he only did so because he saw her as a patient and a child.

【Teacher, Obito, am I being too selfish right now?】

Kakashi thought to herself, but once she took off her mask in front of Ningxia, she couldn't stop anymore.

Before meeting Ningxia, she always wanted to die, whether in battle or by someone else; she was like someone about to drown in a swamp.

But Ningxia was preoccupied with trying to pull her back and offering to help her, unaware of how precious a lifeline is for someone drowning.

Therefore, she will hold on to Ningxia tightly and will never let go from now on.
