Seeing the silver-white haired man in front of him, Kakashi was inexplicably shocked.
Although his face was a little older than he remembered, Kakashi was certain that this man was his father, known as Konoha's White Fang, Hatake Sakumo!
'But...'
He was already dead, and his body was turned into ashes, and he was buried with Ayako.
'How could tou-san appear here?'
Seeing Kakashi's shocked expression, Sakumo is somewhat puzzled.
"What's wrong?"
"No, it's nothing."
Kakashi slightly restrained his emotions, and soon recovered his calm.
This is an instinct he has trained after being in Shinobi career for many years.
Hearing this, Sakumo revealed a smile and said: "Well, don't be mad at your mother. Although your mother is urging you to get married, it is all for your own good. You don't need to think too much about it, and go back first. Don't get angry with your mother."
'Marry? Mother?'
Kakashi, who has just regained his calm, started to feel his emotions fluctuated at again.
'Could it be...'
'Kaa-san is here too?'
Kakashi was very confused.
'What is going on? Is it Genjutsu?'
Kakashi subconsciously wanted to break the Genjutsu, but when he thought of the mother he had never met, he stopped his action.
Under Sakumo's guidance, Kakashi walked into the house that he was very familiar with.
Bright sunlight shines through the windows into the courtyard.
The originally deserted courtyard has a few potted plants.
A wooden stake was also placed on the side.
These are things that Kakashi didn't originally have in his home.
Sakumo opened the door and said: "Ayako, Kakashi is back."
As soon as the voice fell, a black-haired woman walked out of the kitchen.
She looks about thirty years old or so, but still looked beautiful.
But Kakashi knew that if it is his own mother, she must be in her fifties at this time.
Ayako stared at Kakashi with her hands on her hips, and said angrily: "Kakashi! The other day I just asked you to find a girlfriend, but you actually went out of the village to take the S-Rank mission secretly. You are so irresponsible!"
Hearing her voice, Kakashi suddenly have a familiar and moving feeling.
His intuition tells Kakashi that this is his own mother.
Moreover, the mother he saw in the memory of the ox monster in Uzushiogakure is also like this.
'Is this my own mother?'
Seeing that Kakashi didn't speak, she thought that he was still angry, so she said helplessly: "Well, this time, kaa-san is the one in the wrong. Kaa-san will not force you to find a girlfriend in the future. Is this all right?"
Just after Ayako finished speaking, Kakashi suddenly hugged her in his arms.
Ayako was taken aback, and a little surprised at Kakashi's sudden intimacy.
It should be known that Kakashi never hugged her again after he graduated from the Academy.
"Kaa-san... I finally able to meet you, I'm so happy." Kakashi said softly, and his face full of joy.
Ayako was a little confused, but she could feel Kakashi's joy.
Upon seeing this, Sakumo asked Kakashi: "Kakashi, is the mission this time too dangerous?"
When Ayako heard this, she quickly pushed Kakashi away, checked his body carefully, and said, "Are you hurt anywhere? Tell kaa-san about it."
Seeing Ayako's nervousness made Kakashi's heart warm.
Kakashi shook his head and said, "I'm fine. It's just that I'm a little too happy to see kaa-san."
Ayako breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and said: "You child, even after become an adult, you still said something like that. Ok, don't just stand here, let's sit down and eat."
"Okay."
Ayako walked into the kitchen and brought out the food, while Sakumo and Kakashi sat on their seats.
'Everything around is so familiar, yet so strange.'
Not long after, Ayako arranged the food, and a family of three sat together and enjoyed the dinner.
One Kakashi's left and right, are respectively, Ayako and Sakumo.
This was the first time Kakashi felt the atmosphere of a family reunion.
There's no one else except the family of three.
"Tou-san, kaa-san..."
"Hmm? What's wrong?" Ayako said as she looked at Kakashi.
And Sakumo's gaze was also placed on Kakashi.
Kakashi wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "It's nothing."
"You child, you always keep things in your heart. Sooner or later, you need to let it out." Ayako lectured.
Kakashi smiled and said nothing.
Sakumo then said: "When a child grows up, he naturally has his own thoughts, so don't worry about too much."
"What do you mean? Are you starting to dislike me now?" Ayako said while staring at Sakumo.
Hearing this, Sakumo became a little embarrassed and said: "Of course not. How can I dislike you?"
"Oh, so you really dislike me?"
Ayako's eyes widened after hearing this.
Upon hearing this, Sakumo hurriedly said.
"No, Ayako, I didn't mean that."
"That's what you meant just now!"
Sakumo looked very pitiful at this time. No one could imagine that this cold-blooded killer who is the top expert in the Shinobi World would show such an appearance.
Kakashi chuckled when he saw it, and even burst into laughter at the end.
Both Sakumo and Ayako were taken aback and looked at Kakashi.
"Sorry, after seeing tou-san and kaa-san like this, I feel that your relationship is really good. It's really enviable."
"Hmph, who has a good relationship with him! He's just an idiot who only knows how to train with sword." Ayako said disdainfully, but her cheeks were slightly red.
Sakumo just scratched his head and smiled.
It is a dinner with a warm family atmosphere.
After the meal, Sakumo looked some documents while Ayako was washing the dishes in the kitchen.
Everything seems so normal.
This may be the atmosphere that Kakashi's house should have.
'Unfortunately...'
Kakashi seems to have thought of something, and with some regrets in his heart, his hands slowly form a hand seal, and he softly shouted: "Kai!"
The slight Chakra fluctuations come out with Kakashi as the core.
But it did not cause anything.
Kakashi was surprised and secretly thought: 'Isn't it a Genjutsu?"
"Kakashi, what are you doing?" Sakumo asked in confusion.
"Eh? Ah! It's nothing, I'm just training a Ninjutsu."
Sakumo put down the documents in his hand and said, "You sure are really diligent. Well, you should take a good rest at night. You need to train moderately."
"Yes, tou-san."
Kakashi turned around and went back to his room, and there was some confusion in his heart.
'What kind of Ninjutsu did Obito used on me?'
In the reality, Obito stood on the surface of the lake and muttered softly: "Kakashi, the Limited Tsukuyomi's world uses the power of the seven Bijū to reflect a real world and bring along your body into it. Right now, it is impossible for you to break from it directly. You are just like a stone that enters the lake. You can cause a ripple, but you can't change everything. And there is everything you look forward to in that world. Family, friendship, and ...love. How will you choose?"
