In Konoha, Naruto lies down

He sat up straight in his chair. Shikamaru heard the noise and looked up at him from the pile of documents, frowning slightly and looking puzzled.

"Kakashi-sensei, what's wrong?"

"Ahem, it's okay." Kakashi shifted his butt in his seat, feeling a little uneasy.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the Hokage's office. Kakashi looked up suddenly and saw the familiar vermillion double office doors opening.

He hesitated for a moment, and only came to his senses when Shikamaru reminded him.

"Enter."

For some reason, after Kakashi shouted "Come in," his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He had been a ninja for so many years, and had experienced countless life and death situations, but he had never experienced such a feeling before.

It was like... like he had passively opened a Pandora's door, and all the unknown things were about to burst out. He swallowed, his heart pounding like a drum.

The door was pushed open, revealing a fat face.

Shikamaru's forehead was sweating, and he was yelling curse words in his mind. He hadn't even finished his meal when Naruto pulled him over to join in. He said something was wrong, but it was hard to talk alone.

No matter what was asked, he would just talk about other things and say it was a good thing.

Damn it, you actually thought of me when good things happened? Shikamaru scorned him, but based on the principle of helping whenever possible, he reluctantly agreed.

After knocking on the door, Choji noticed that Kakashi looked a little strange, and he became even more nervous.

"Chouji? Why are you here?" Shikamaru was even more surprised.

"Well... I..." Choji couldn't say anything, and could only look at Kakashi with his fat hands, "Kakashi-sensei, do you want a wife or not?"

Chapter 481: Enough, Kakashi, stop blaming yourself, it’s time to wake up from the nightmare

As soon as Dingci finished speaking, the entire Hokage office fell into a dead silence, so quiet that you could almost hear a pin drop.

Shikamaru stared blankly at Choji with his eyes wide open. Kakashi was stunned, but his eyes were not empty; his gaze was not on Choji.

But behind...the door.

There comes a time in a person's life when, as if destined, he or she has a sense of déjà vu about what is about to happen.

It was as if at some point, I suddenly realized that I had seen this scene somewhere before. It seemed to have happened before, I should have... Yes, I had seen it before.

Reality and fantasy were completely indistinguishable, as if I had traveled back from the future with my memories. There was an inexplicable feeling of foresight about what was about to happen.

There are many explanations for this phenomenon, telling someone that it's fake, not déjà vu, but just some normal physiological phenomenon.

As long as you grow up, you will no longer have this kind of trouble, and this almost magical feeling will disappear.

Kakashi was in this state right now, completely lost in thought, staring intently at the door. Whoever was standing behind it was about to push it open and come in the next second.

I vaguely remember a vague figure, a woman, exactly like the one in my dream. I couldn't make out her face, but it felt familiar, standing in the warm light.

He didn't listen to what Dingci said at all, just staring at the office door. He had a premonition that something was going to happen in the next moment.

It's like a Pandora's box. You won't know what's hidden inside until you open it. You might regret it or feel lost.

In any case, the moment it was opened, the gears of fate began to turn.

The door opened again, and a nimble figure timidly walked in. There was no knocking, no sound, it was as if someone had pushed it in.

With a thud, Kakashi stood up from his seat. With such force, he subconsciously pressed down on the table, creating a dent.

The Hokage's desk wasn't the ancestral desk from the White Palace, where no one left, it remained, a desk passed down through generations. The Hokage's job was incredibly stressful, and wear and tear on the Hokage's office became a constant expense.

The fifth generation alone smashed seven or eight office desks.

Kakashi was a slow-tempered person, but he rarely lost his composure. At this moment, his breathing was a little rapid, and his eyes were fixed on the man, his eyes wide open.

Nohara Lin was a little confused, not yet fully understanding the concept of twenty years later. A yellow-haired man told her that she was not dead, but just sleeping.

The village was still the same, but the Nohara clan had vanished in the war. The era she was familiar with was already far away, and her family, friends, and enemies were all lost in the distant past.

The village's Hokage is no longer the Sandaime, but the insignificant Sixth Hokage Kakashi.

Nohara Rin was a bit confused about what the concept of Hokage was. She was only a Chunin until her death, and she didn't think too much about it at the time. She just wanted to die because she didn't want to bring trouble to the village.

Kakashi's Lightning Release Ninjutsu was extremely powerful, and the pain of death only lasted for a dozen seconds. The only thing that was remembered was Kakashi's terrified and desperate eyes.

The story should have ended here, and she never expected there would be a sequel. One day twenty years later, she woke up.

No one could accept that opening her eyes twenty years later would be the end of her life. She preferred to believe that she had died and come back to life. As for why she was alive, who cares? A good death is worse than a miserable life.

If Naruto knew what she was thinking, he would cry his heart out. If he had known that you didn't care about the cause and effect, why would he have made up such nonsense?

Nohara Rin was wearing the clothes of a Konoha Chunin. She looked to be in her early twenties. Compared to the old man Kakashi, she was a girl.

Big brown eyes, short brown hair, and an awkward smile on her flawless face. When she looked at Kakashi, there was a hint of surprise on her face.

In her impression, Kakashi has always been cool and handsome, but who is this decadent and lazy old man in front of her who looks similar to Kakashi?

"Rin?" Kakashi opened his mouth and froze in his tracks.

He wasn't in a trance, but was waiting for the hallucination to pass. He had seen similar hallucinations countless times, where his suicidal father opened the door one day and told him warmly to go and collect his clothes.

The next second, the house was empty again.

Or maybe one day, he was washing his hands when the water suddenly became slippery. A closer look revealed the water had turned to blood. Nohara Rin sat on the platform, staring blankly at him, blood pouring out of the gaping hole in her abdomen.

Time seemed to become very long at this moment, as long as a century.

"Kakashi." Lin responded to him.

Wasn't it an illusion? Kakashi jolted awake, his eyes gradually lighting up as he looked at Nohara Lin. For a moment, he felt a bit lost.

Shikamaru and Choji, two ignorant onlookers, stood aside, their jaws almost dropping to the ground. Choji regretted it so much, damn it, Uzumaki Naruto, you really deserve to die!

You’re cheating me again!

What kind of wife is this? They know each other. It's obvious they're having an affair! Oh my god! She even lied to me and said something so embarrassing. I'm going to die!

Naruto was sticking to the door, listening to the noises in the office. He was a little puzzled, wondering why the two of them could meet so calmly after their life-and-death separation.

Not to mention the mountain without a hill, how dare I break off with you, but at least I should be excited, right? My former companion died and came back to life, isn't this worth a few shudders?

When the two met, their eyes turned red and Basho turned green. Uh...who is Basho?

Why did they just call each other's names and then nothing happened? Even if they weren't alive, they still had to yell twice, right? What was going on with this silence?

Driven by curiosity, he almost wanted to peek through the crack of the door to take a look.

After a while, the sound came from the office again, but this time it was the voice of his unlucky friend. Shikamaru and Choji saw that something was wrong and quickly ran away to urinate.

The two of them pushed the door open and left anxiously. When they turned around, they saw Naruto sticking to the wall and eavesdropping on the conversation inside. They were speechless.

"What are you doing?" Shikamaru asked.

"Shh!" Naruto turned around and made a shushing gesture at Shikamaru, his ear close to the wall again.

Seeing this, Choji was speechless, then he followed Naruto's lead and moved closer. Shikamaru covered his face, and finally the three of them all lay down against the wall to listen.

Shikamaru thought that since he couldn't drag those two idiots away, he might as well find out what happened first. They actually heard something: Kakashi's voice was a little intermittent, and he sounded very nervous.

Nohara Lin's voice was also a little low, and only the general meaning could be barely understood.

Rustling sounds floated out through the wall one after another. Naruto glanced at Fatty Ding beside him without thinking and warned him in a low voice.

"Breathe quieter!"

Chouji: “….”

The room seemed empty, and no sound was heard for a long time. Naruto frowned slightly, Choji narrowed his eyes, and Shikamaru glanced at the shadow beside him.

Boom boom boom! ! !

Three slaps landed on the heads of the three children. The three mentally retarded children felt a pain in their heads and cried out in surprise. Looking back, they saw the real boss standing behind them.

Kakashi looked at the three smart guys helplessly and sighed.

"What are you doing?"

"Uh..." Naruto took a step back and looked at Shikamaru beside him with a questioning look.

Choji's face was filled with fear, and he silently mouthed a polite "no" to Naruto. His eyes were so horrified that they almost popped his head off.

Shikamaru stood aside with a lazy look in his eyes. He knew that this had nothing to do with him. With Kakashi's style, he would definitely take the culprit out.

"Naruto, stop looking there. Come in and tell me if you have anything to say." Kakashi put his hand on Naruto's shoulder and pulled him directly into the office.

At the same time, they stuck their heads out and spoke to Choji and Shikamaru outside.

"It's getting late, go back and rest early."

"Yes! Teacher Kakashi!" The two answered in unison, and floated down the stairs together as if they had lost their souls.

Downstairs, Shikamaru and Choji walked under the streetlights, one after the other. Shikamaru, wearing a cyan windbreaker, walked in front with his hands clasped behind his head, his melancholy shadow stretched out long.

Shikamaru fell behind half a step, scratching his head and cheeks in discomfort.

"Shikamaru, who exactly is that person? Why does Kakashi-sensei's reaction seem to indicate he has a special relationship with her?"

"I'm not sure. You should ask Naruto. I guess it has something to do with him." Shikamaru said casually, his mind filled with unfinished work.

Hearing this, Choji stopped asking questions. Shikamaru's melancholy was visible to the naked eye, and his upward spirit couldn't be concealed even with his lazy expression.

When Naruto said it at first, he didn't quite believe it, but now Choji really thinks that Shikamaru is likely to be the seventh Hokage in the future.

There was nothing wrong with this, after all, the Hokage's position was supreme. Shikamaru was his childhood friend, and he was so outstanding, so he naturally hoped for the best for him.

I don't know why, but it seems like the distance between the two of us is getting farther and farther. We are still friends now, but Shikamaru no longer has time to discuss meaningless things with me.

It was as if there was a thick and pathetic barrier between us, and there was no need to share many things. Although we were still good brothers, I might have to call him Hokage when I saw him in the future.

In the office, Naruto looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, and he knew nothing about anything.

"I don't know. The person I ran into by chance was using some kind of sorcery to resurrect. I'm such a helpful person, and I can't tolerate any injustice. I must enforce justice."

"And then... she came back to life. ...It's none of my business. She said she knew you, Kakashi-sensei, so I brought her back to the village."

"Yeah, her identity wasn't reported. I figured you and she must be close, so uh... her identity was probably cancelled."

Kakashi felt a bit of a headache after hearing this. Looking at Naruto's stubborn and crazy look, he couldn't help but feel angry and amused.

"Stop talking nonsense here."

After asking a few more questions and being convinced that he couldn't get any information out of Naruto, Kakashi gave up. Nohara Rin was a little nervous, sitting in her chair, pursing her lips and looking around.

Seeing this, Kakashi didn't want to continue arguing with Naruto. So he sighed, turned to look at Naruto and asked one last question.

"Has that person been dealt with? Can their origins be determined?"

He was asking about the man who had kidnapped Ino and Hinata, the deceased Uchiha Obito.

However, Kakashi was not clear about the man's identity at this time, and he didn't know that he was Uchiha Obito. But Obito had put the village into a level two alert state after all, and he couldn't just ignore the identity issue and let it go.

"Dead, a stranger." Naruto shook his head with a calm expression.

"Where's the body?"

"No, I burned him to death and turned him into ashes." Naruto smiled, "That man has some skills, he doesn't seem like an ordinary person."

"Well... he might be a traitor. I'll send someone to another ninja village to investigate." Kakashi nodded. He had to deal with the problem of Nohara Rin now and didn't have time to think about it.

The so-called investigation is that the Anbu sneaks into other ninja villages to obtain information.

"Let's leave it at that for now, as long as everything is alright."

"Then I'll go back first?" Naruto asked tentatively.

"Wait." Kakashi naturally would not let Naruto leave. He was still a little confused and didn't know how to contact Nohara Rin.

He needed some time to calm down before bringing Naruto in for questioning. How could he let him go now that he hadn't calmed down yet?

Naruto turned to look at Nohara Rin, then looked at the stuck Kakashi, and simply walked out as if he didn't hear anything.

"Hey! You!"

The office fell silent again. Kakashi turned his back to Nohara Rin, not knowing what to say. Nohara Rin was also a little nervous, sitting there with her head lowered.

"Um...Lin, do you have any other memories of when you woke up?" Kakashi turned and asked.

"No." She shook her head.

"Yeah." Kakashi had nothing to say and fell silent again.

Nohara Lin stood up, looked at Kakashi, pursed her lips, and said with some hesitation.

"Kakashi, am I causing you any trouble?"
