Naruto, what kind of Hokage would you be if you didn't roll around!

Naruto pointed at him and laughed loudly, "I'm laughing at you, you're so contradictory!"

"Since you say that fate is predetermined and cannot be changed no matter how hard you try..."

"Then why do you work so hard?!"

Hyuga Neji was speechless.

He snorted coldly: "You're right, indeed, no matter how hard I try, I can't change my fate."

"Just like my entire life, I can never escape the fate of being a branch family member of the Hyuga clan."

"But my talent is also predetermined by fate, and it is something that you, Naruto Uzumaki, as well as you, Rock Lee, and that Hinata-sama, can never catch up to!"

Naruto was furious and was about to continue arguing when Rock Lee stopped him.

"Never mind, Naruto, there's no need to say anything more. Let's prove it to him with the results of our efforts..."

"Who is right after all!"

Naruto, furious, roared, "Fine!"

"Since that's the case, let's make a deal!"

"One year from now, Lee, Hinata, and I will all challenge you!"

"At that time, we will definitely defeat you!"

Hyuga Neji was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help but burst into mocking laughter.

"Just you guys?"

"Don't even mention a year, even a lifetime, you are no match for me!"

Naruto roared, "Do you dare to bet?!"

Hyuga Neji coldly replied, "It doesn't matter."

"You want to strive to be like me? That's exactly the mindset of the weak..."

"But in my eyes, you have never been good enough."

After saying this, Hyuga Neji turned to leave.

Naruto was about to explode again, but Rock Lee managed to stop him.

Watching Neji Hyuga's retreating figure, Rock Lee sighed.

“Naruto, that’s just Neji’s personality, and he’s right, we’re definitely not his match yet…”

"However, Naruto's point is also very valid!"

"That bet a year from now also got my blood pumping instantly!"

Naruto clenched his fists angrily at Neji's retreating figure.

"That arrogant guy is even more infuriating than Sasuke!"

"Uchiha Sasuke?"

"Indeed, the two of them are very similar; they are both arrogant, but they are also true geniuses!"

A fighting spirit also ignited in Lee Rock's heart.

"Naruto! I'm fired up!"

"Let's fight with all our might and strive together to defeat a genius like Neji!"

"it is good!"

The incident with Hyuga Neji did indeed cause Naruto to relax his fighting spirit and will, but it instantly reignited and exploded!

Both he and Rock Lee were filled with passion, roaring and howling as they began a new round of brutal physical training!

"Leaf Whirlwind..."

"Leaf Whirlwind—"

"Konoha Tornado!"

Burn with youthful energy, sweat it out, and let your blood boil!

at the same time.

Not far from the training ground, two figures were watching these scenes unfold.

"How's Kakashi doing?"

"Isn't that exciting!"

“This is real youth!”

"Naruto, Lee, and Hyuga Neji, that kind of bet that burned everything, is just like you and me, true rivals for life!"

Matt Kai clenched his fists so tightly that tears even welled up in his eyes!

However, the man beside him wore a mask that covered his mouth, nose, and left eye, while his right eye, which was exposed, was full of drowsy sleepiness and a lazy indifference to everything.

Kakashi Hatake yawned widely, picked up a book he often read, shook his head, and prepared to leave.

Only Matt Kai was left behind, burning his youth in solitude.

A gust of wind blew by, and fallen leaves drifted down, making the once fervent man appear quite forlorn...

"Hey! Kakashi, you bastard!"

"Too lazy!"

Chapter 62 Kakashi: Naruto, you are the real strongman, and I am just a coward! Please vote for me!

Might Guy caught up with them, and before leaving, he didn't forget to look at Naruto and Rock Lee one last time.

Even Hyuga Neji, who had already gone far away, glanced at her again.

"Kakashi, don't you think those guys are really hot-blooded?"

Might Guy patted Kakashi Hatake on the shoulder.

Kakashi Hatake almost knocked the book out of his hand.

He reacted quickly, catching it again, and frowned slightly.

"Well, it is very exciting, but you didn't bring me here just to see their excitement, did you?"

"Hahaha, that's part of the reason!"

"Hey Kakashi, you've been so down for too long, it's time to pull yourself together!"

"I thought you'd regain some of your energy after leaving the Dark Division, but you're still the same, lifeless. Where did your youth go?!"

Kakashi Hatake closed his book and gazed lazily at the white clouds in the sky.

"I've never had that kind of thing..."

"How can it be!"

Matt Kai roared, "Our youth isn't over yet!"

"It's more accurate to say that this is just the beginning!"

"Besides, you should know very well why I brought you here, right?!"

Kakashi Hatake sighed softly.

Of course he knew.

And they knew it perfectly well.

Since those experiences, Kakashi Hatake has been immersed in despair and pain.

He once joined the Dark Side, numbing himself by constantly carrying out the most dangerous and brutal missions.

However, that ultimately could not relieve the suffering in his heart.

At the suggestion of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Kakashi Hatake left the Anbu and became a Jonin leading a team.

only……

The trio who graduated from the Ninja Academy last year didn't even pass the initial assessment and were sent back to the Ninja Academy to repeat their studies by Kakashi Hatake.

Judging from the current situation, it seems likely that this year will be similar.

That's probably why Might Guy brought him to see the boys' hard work beforehand...

Kakashi Hatake did not answer Might Guy's question.

Instead, he countered with, "You've got your eye on that guy, haven't you?"

"Locke Lee."

Might Guy laughed heartily: "As expected of Kakashi, his insight is as amazing as ever!"

“That’s right, I’ve been keeping an eye on that kid since he was at the Ninja Academy.”

"He's a lot like me, also a loser, and he's not good at ninjutsu or genjutsu, so he can only improve himself through taijutsu. Most importantly..."

"He and I share the same conviction that hard work can surpass genius!"

Kakashi Hatake remarked, "Well, not only that, but you also look a lot like me..."

"Watermelon head, thick eyebrows..."

Matt Kai laughed, "Hahahaha, that just proves we're destined to be together!"

"However, Kakashi, you probably wouldn't guess, there's another guy I've also set my sights on..."

Kakashi Hatake gave the answer without hesitation.

"Is that Hyuga Neji?"

"Nani?!"

"How could you have guessed that?!"

Matt Kai was stunned.

Kakashi Hatake said, "He is a member of the Hyuga clan's branch family, but he is exceptionally talented and is probably the strongest among these teenagers in terms of taijutsu."

"Of course, as you said, more importantly, he can compete with Rock Lee and prove that the underdog can surpass the genius through hard work."

Matt Kai was full of admiration: "As expected of you, you really saw through my thoughts!"

"However, it wasn't entirely because of Lee. Neji is also the kind of person I want to change..."

"He is a true genius, but he is currently in darkness and needs someone to rescue him..."

Kakashi Hatake knew he was being hinted at.

But he wasn't going to engage.

"So, these are all disciples you selected. What am I supposed to see?"

Matt Kay paused.

"Isn't there another person?"

"Uzumaki Naruto."

Kakashi Hatake's heart skipped a beat.

"You should know very well that his identity is that of the Fourth Hokage..."

Matt Kai hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Kakashi Hatake certainly knew, but...

He sighed deeply and shook his head heavily.

"I can't even control my own life..."

"What right do you have to rescue others..."

Matt Kee understood his pain.

During his time in the Anbu, Kakashi Hatake earned a formidable reputation throughout the ninja world through extreme methods and a ruthless attitude, but at the same time, it also intensified the gloom in his heart.

Although I have left the Dark Division, the pain in my heart still cannot be erased.
