Time passed day by day, Kakashi had already left the village to find Obito's trace. Although Satoru felt that Kakashi might not be able to find it, if Obito really wanted to avoid Kakashi, then Kakashi would definitely not be able to find him.
Everyone's life also slowly became calm, mission, training, rest, almost all the daily life is such a three-point line of life.
Kushina became a regular customer of Sakumo's dessert shop, and Naruto also became a regular customer of the ramen shop next to the dessert shop. He seemed to have no interest in desserts.
After Itachi activated the Sharingan, his strength had a rapid growth. It must be said that Kekkei Genkai is really a good thing. Except for the large consumption of chakra, Itachi's current Sharingan didn't have any shortcomings.
"Ah, it's been a year since Kakashi left, I wonder how he's doing now?"
Satoru had just entered the dessert shop and found a place to sit when Hatake Sakumo started complaining. Indeed, compared to his eldest son Satoru, Sakumo was more concerned about his younger son Kakashi.
"Don't worry, Kakashi's strength is now even greater than yours, there won't be any problems."
Satoru's tone was somewhat indifferent, or rather, he was very confident in Kakashi.
"You really don't act like an older brother at all, you don't care about your younger brother."
It seems that as people get older, they become more noisy and their inner worries become stronger. Even Hatake Sakumo couldn't avoid this change.
"I trust him, okay? If you're worried now, you can go with Kakashi. If the two of you are together, I'll be even more relieved."
Konohagakure's White Fang Hatake Sakumo and Copy Ninja Hatake Kakashi, if these two teamed up, unless someone of the Six Paths level took action, no one could stop them now.
"Ah, I'm so old, and yet you still want me to carry out such a difficult mission. As expected, once I get old, you start to dislike me."
As he spoke, Hatake Sakumo even pretended to shed a few tears from the corners of his eyes.
Seeing this, Hatake Satoru was speechless.
Since retiring, Hatake Sakumo had gradually started to let loose, and his style had gradually started to become strange. If it weren't for his Rikugan telling him that Hatake Sakumo was fine, he would have suspected that his father was under a Genjutsu.
"Your acting skills is so good, it's a pity you didn't become an actor."
Upon hearing what Hatake Satoru said, Hatake Sakumo's eyes lit up.
"Right? I think so too, but unfortunately, I never had the chance."
At this moment, Hatake Satoru really didn't want to stay here any longer.
Just then, the door of the dessert shop was suddenly opened, and a red-haired woman led a blond boy in.
Seeing Sakumo still in self-admiration, the woman's expression suddenly froze.
And Sakumo also noticed his own embarrassing state, his face slightly red.
"Welcome."
Sakumo immediately adjusted his state and spoke.
"I never thought that Sakumo-sama would have a talent for acting."
The corner of the other party's mouth twitched slightly, as if she was forcing a smile.
The person who came was Kushina. A long time ago, when they had suspicions, Sakumo had already voluntarily revealed his identity to them.
"Haha, sorry, I made you laugh."
Sakumo touched his hair awkwardly and spoke apologetically.
However, when Kushina and Naruto saw Satoru, the Nine-Tails chakra inside them couldn't help but stir. Even though so much time had passed, the Nine-Tails' fear of Hatake Satoru hadn't diminished at all.
"Naruto, come here."
Satoru waved to Naruto. He had met Naruto many times, so the two were somewhat familiar now.
But when Naruto heard what Satoru said, he timidly hid behind Kushina.
For some reason, he always felt an inexplicable fear of Hatake Satoru. Even though he felt that the other party was a very kind older brother, that fear just wouldn't go away.
"Naruto, Uncle Satoru is calling you."
Kushina bent down and whispered to Naruto.
And when he heard the word "uncle", Hatake Satoru instantly felt as if he had been hit by a ten thousand needle. He was 15 years older than Naruto, so he should be called "brother".
"Naruto, Call me brother."
Upon hearing what Hatake Satoru said, a look of disdain appeared in Kushina's eyes, as if she was saying, "Hatake Satoru, you're so shameless."
Upon hearing Kushina's words, Naruto slowly walked towards Hatake Satoru with small steps. However, when he was about to approach Hatake Satoru, a surge of red chakra suddenly appeared on his body, directly attaching to Naruto's skin.
And Naruto, who had this chakra appear on his body, his facial expression instantly became somewhat ferocious, as if he was very uncomfortable.
"Behave yourself, Nine-Tails."
Just as Kushina was about to take action, she heard Satoru say this in a serious tone.
And as soon as these words came out, the Nine-Tails chakra that was attached to Naruto's body instantly disappeared.
Seeing this, both Kushina and Sakumo let out a deep breath.
"Indeed, as expected of Satoru, the Nine-Tails is really obedient in front of you."
Kushina said with a somewhat envious tone. Although she can now enter the Nine-Tails chakra mode, she is also forcibly requisitioning the Nine-Tails' chakra. But once she uses too much, she will still be invaded by the Nine-Tails' sanity.
So she wished she had the same powerful strength as Satoru, then maybe she could completely tame the Nine-Tails.
"There's no way, who made my strength so strong."
Satoru flicked his hair and said very arrogantly.
"But you shouldn't treat the Nine-Tails as a weapon, as an ominous thing, after all, it is now settling in your body, you can treat it as a family member, or as a friend, maybe your sincerity can touch it?"
The Nine-Tails inside the two of them heard this sentence, and they all looked at Satoru with incredulous eyes. They couldn't believe that the sentence of treating the tailed beast as a friend actually came from someone who had killed the tailed beast.
But upon hearing this sentence, Kushina shook her head slightly, with a helpless expression on her face.
"The Nine-Tails is a collection of all malice and negative emotions, it's almost impossible to live in peace with it."
"Have you tried to get along with it as a friend?"
Upon hearing Hatake Satoru's question, Kushina was stunned, then shook her head.
"Yeah, you haven't tried, how do you know it won't succeed?"
And Naruto, who had been listening to their conversation, his eyes lit up slightly. He had known for a long time that there was an incredible fox in his body.
"Being friends with a fox seems pretty cool."
That's what Naruto was thinking at this moment.
