Behind the Scenes from Naruto

Chapter 114 - 114: I Am The Hope Of The Whole Village

"Hokage-sama!"

When Kakashi saw the Third Hokage, his eyes condensed, and his expression slowly eased, pointing to Uehara he said: "This is Uehara Naraku-san from Amegakure. We met by chance when we were on a mission outside."

"Huh? why are you being unfamiliar?"

Uehara draped his arm on Kakashi's shoulders, with a bit of dissatisfaction on his face he said: "I have told you a lot of information for free, did you treat your old friends like this?"

"..."

Kakashi couldn't help but raise his brows.

Why is this ninja named Uehara Naraku being so familiar?

Sarutobi and Kakashi had different moods. But they already knew that Uehara's purpose to take the Chunin exam was to promote his village.

Sarutobi's heart felt a little calm.

As long as there are no major disturbances in this Chunin exam, it doesn't matter.

What makes Sarutobi even more rewarding is that Uehara and Kakashi seem to be friends.

According to Sarutobi's observations, this Ame ninja named Uehara Naraku seemed to have a good impression of Konoha.

A genius Ame Ninja who has a good impression of Konoha, if he can inherit the position of Amegakure's leader in the future, it will be good for Konoha.

When thinking of this, the smile on Sarutobi's old face became wider: "Welcome to Konoha, how do you feel about the scenery of our village?"

"It's beautiful, it is the scenery I have never seen before."

Uehara's words are half true, because it is the first time he has seen the scenery that he has seen countless times in the animation, and watching the scenery can also complete some side mission.

Sarutobi knowingly asked: "Are the leader of Amegakure who took the Chunin exam this time? I have long heard that Amegakure has a genius ninja..."

"Uh, I'm just a normal ninja."

Uehara showed an awkward expression promptly: "Moreover, I will just be promoted to Chunin after taking part in Konoha's Chunin exam."

"The real strong ones are often not distinguishable by position."

Sarutobi still smiled very kindly: "There are some very powerful Genin in our village and their strength is comparable to a Jonin..."

This sentence is indeed true.

For example, Maruboshi Kosuke and the dead Might Duy who has the rank of genin, and aside from that, just Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, their future achievements are simply too scary.

A smile appeared on Uehara's face, and instead of answering, he whispered: "Yes, I just didn't expect that the Third Hokage-sama is as approachable as the rumors said."

"Hahahaha..."

Sarutobi became more and more satisfied with Uehara, winked at Kakashi seriously, and whispered: "Kakashi, since your friend is here, then take him around in the village. Then I will be going first!"

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Kakashi nodded and watched the back of Sarutobi going away.

After the old man left, Kakashi did not mention again the proposal Uehara had previously discussed, and quietly changed the topic.

"You have changed so much. When you were in the Country of Water a few years ago, you suspected that I coveted the treasures of your Ninja Village."

"At that time, I'm young and frivolous!"

Uehara sighed and said with a little nostalgia: "I have experienced too many things. I think right now that the friendship between Konoha and Ame is beneficial to both our countries. ."

Kakashi nodded, he is actually a little sympathetic to Uehara: "Hard-won peace. Everyone really needs to cherish it..."

After all, when he was in the Country of Water, Uehara was so arrogant that he unscrupulously commanded a group of missing-nin from Kirigakure to besiege Orochimaru, and even force him to retreat...

It's just that he didn't expect a few years later, he will mature because of some problem he experienced in his village.

But for Konoha, this is also a good thing.

Only if you truly have the heart of a fearless man, and are not afraid of any difficulties, can you become stronger.

From Kakashi's point of view, Uehara was actually squandering his talent, and soon his strength would reach the limit, he will be among the many ordinary ninjas.

"Boss, the money is on the table."

After Uehara yelled, he took out an explosive tag and pressed it on the table. He was about to pull Kakashi and leave: "I heard that Konoha has a lot of delicious food, take me to see! "

Such as Dango and Yakinuki...

These are just general foods, but for him, they have a meaning of their existence.

When Kakashi was about to leave obediently, he saw the explosive tag left by Uehara, and his eyelids jumped in fright: "What do you mean by leaving an explosive tag here? You want to destroy this shop?"

"Got used to it."

Uehara took out some explosive tags in his body and looked at Kakashi with an innocent face: "I don't have any money and when I go out I spend my teammates' money. Generally, I only spend explosive tag, Kakashi did you bring money?"

Because Konan is very strict with his education.

Uehara is absolutely not allowed to touch every item in Ninja Three Prohibitions, even if Uehara is the accountant of Amegakure, he doesn't have any pocket money.

"hiss…"

Kakashi glanced at Uehara with a complicated expression. After dropping a banknote, he sighed and said: "I seriously suspect that you are not here to eat..."

"If I remember correctly, you took the initiative to pay, right?"

Uehara said with a winking eyebrow: "Then take me to a bookstore, and by the way, help me pay for a set of books!"

"What book?"

"A set of sacred books spread among ninjas."

Uehara sneaked up to Kakashi, suppressing his smile, and said next to Kakashi: "Have you heard of this set of books?"

"..."

Kakashi's eyes became weirder and weirder, and he wanted to show off the signature collector's edition he had, and then brought Uehara to buy the regular edition.

Just looking at Uehara's still astringent face, Kakashi frowned and said: "Are you 18 years old this year?"

"Sixteen."

"Minors are not allowed to read these books."

Kakashi modestly restrained Uehara's thoughts, and gave himself an example: "On my eighteenth birthday, I received it as a gift from Jiraiya-sama."

The limited signature collector's edition of "Icha Icha Paradise" in Kakashi's hand is a birthday gift from Jiraiya.

Uehara sighed: "Is there really no way to discuss it? This book is very difficult to buy. If I can't buy it from Konoha, I don't know when will I get it..."

"No way."

Kakashi tugged at his face mask and whispered: "Maybe when you are eighteen, I can help you apply for a signed version of Jiraiya-sama."

"Tsk..."

Uehara sighed.

If nothing unexpected happens, perhaps he has a chance to meet Jiraiya this time in the Chunin exam.

"Fine."

Uehara patted Kakashi on the shoulder and touched his chin: "The scenery of Konoha is almost the same. Let's meet the guys in your team and let them know their opponent in advance? "

Hearing Uehara's words, Kakashi looked a little unpleasant. He shook his head, and rejected Uehara's proposal: "Let's wait for the exam to start so that they don't see you in advance and lose their confidence to take the Chunin exam."

Uehara is too strong.

What if Sasuke, the strongest in Team 7, sees Uehara and wants to challenge him but was beaten instead.

It is estimated that Team 7 will lose confidence in taking the Chunin exam.

"Actually, I also don't have much confidence."

Uehara stretched out his hand to hold the back of his head and sighed faintly: "This time the Chunin exam should be the largest in these years, right? The hope of the whole village rests on me. I hope I can be a Chunin with good grades in the exam..."

"Don't treat yourself badly!"

Kakashi couldn't help said: "Although there may be many interesting newcomers in this Chunin exam, no matter how strong they are, they may not be able to defeat a monster like you!

Four years ago, after Hanare and I left, I estimated the battle between us, and my odds of defeating you were pitiful low. "

"Impossible"

Uehara shook his head quickly and analyzed it seriously: "If you want to beat me it should be at least 50% at that time, right? "

"You really are very hambled."

The corner of Kakashi's eyes trembled.

I have to say that the liveliness of Uehara can easily give rise to a sense of intimacy, and Kakashi slowly reduced his vigilance towards Uehara.

Facing a somewhat harmless opponent like Uehara, Kakashi's undecided mind made a thorough decision, and let the three little guys in his class see the horror of the Chunin exam.

Only when the two of them talked for a day that the two separated, Uehara looked at Kakashi's leaving figure, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Kakashi is too vigilant. If you want to get in touch with Uzumaki Naruto, I have to wait until the time for the Chunin exam...."
