Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 559
Desperately walking on the way home, Kakashi's face showed a sense of unwillingness in a daze, he looked at his father beside him from time to time, his lips murmured several times, but he didn't know what he should ask.

Noticing his son's expression, Hatake Sakumo didn't want to talk to Kakashi at first, but when he was about to return to the Hatake Clan's land, after careful consideration, he suddenly stopped and squatted down so that his eyes could meet Kakashi's. Cassie flush.

"Kakashi, are you confused?"

Kakashi's heart skipped a beat at his father's actions, and the expression on his father's face that couldn't be seen, and the words that he was about to blurt out were suppressed. After a few seconds of delay, he replied with a confused look. :
"I know that ninja battles are not only based on strength, but also wisdom and experience against the enemy. I know all of this, but I... I really don't understand why the examiner made it difficult for me in a simple graduation exam."

"And Hokage-sama, he should have been watching from the sidelines, right? Could he be indifferent to what the examiner did? I admit that I was careless, but he wouldn't scold me like that, would he?"

"Obviously... I won."

As he went on, Kakashi's voice became softer, and the sense of loss on his face became more intense. What happened today undoubtedly dealt a great blow to his self-confidence. He didn't understand that he had put the knife on the examiner's neck Come on, why does this not count as a win, why... that Chunin examiner is so shameless?so hateful?

After patiently listening to Kakashi's statement, Hatake Sakumo didn't show any fluctuations on his face, but he sighed slightly in his heart. He stretched out his palm and patted his son's shoulder, and asked with a serious face:

"Kakashi, do you know where you lost?"

Kakashi lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and looked at Hatake Sakumo again. There was a flash of indecision in his eyes, and he guessed: "Is it because I am not prepared enough? Because I did not study before the battle. Good test rules? Or... I lost in carelessness and underestimating the enemy?"

"Neither..." Hatake Sakumo shook his head slowly: "Kakashi, you lost on the pride in your heart."

"pride?"

"Yes, pride blinded your eyes, made your mind no longer calm, and made your thinking no longer rational. When you put the ninja knife on the examiner's neck, pride made you Think you've won."

"But the battle between ninjas is often a fight between life and death. It is a game of intrigue and deceit to win at all costs. If all the resistance of the opponent is not effectively eliminated, it is not a defeat."

After finishing speaking, seeing Kakashi's pensive expression, Hatake Sakumo stood up, patted the boy's shoulder again, and walked forward first, leaving only the last words full of expectation:
"Master Naruto has high expectations for you, Kakashi, I hope you can figure out your own problems as soon as possible, and then change your naive personality left in the ninja school, and take the Chunin exam as a real ninja. "

When Hatake Sakumo gradually walked away, Kakashi seemed to understand where he really lost, but just as he was about to say something, his father's words just lingered in his ears, making him suddenly stunned:
"The Chunin Exam?"

……

"Although Kakashi is relatively naive in character, I believe you have seen his strength. He was able to defeat the Chunin head-on at the age of six-this kind of talent is rare even in the history of our Konoha, so Minato... "

"Hurry up and teach him everything - what you think he should learn, let him come out on top in the Chunin exam, give me a hard lesson for Yunyin Xiaren, and get No.1."

Namikaze Minato silently looked at Lei Luo's solemn face, then nodded silently, and secretly slandered in his heart: Yun Yin and Konoha are obviously allies, why Lei Luo, Hokage, has to target him like this? Yunyin endured, embarrassing the third generation of Raikage?

Is face-saving really that important?
Then Kakashi will be able to beat the Chunin before he graduates. If he goes through his own assault training, especially if Kakashi can master the Flying Thunder God...

Is there any need for this Chunin exam?
As if he could see what Namikaze Minato was thinking at the moment from his expression, Lei Luo coughed lightly, and explained briefly: "I just found out yesterday that there seem to be some very troublesome guys from Yunyin, what are they called Daru?" Yi, Ma Buyi is here."

"There are not many successful ninjas in our generation, so..."

"You know."

At this moment, Namikaze Minato really understood: Lai Luo just didn't want Konoha to lose too badly, that's why he wanted Kakashi to graduate early, and then killed the Quartet in the Chunin Exam, fighting fiercely for Konoha. A wave of face.

'The teacher's character is still as strong as ever... It doesn't matter that you defeated Raikage, but now you want our Konoha's next generation to defeat Yun Yin's next generation, it is a bloody bad luck for Yun Yin to form an alliance with us. '

Deep down in his heart, he couldn't stop complaining about Lei Luo, the very face-saving Hokage, but on the surface he remained calm. Namikaze Minato thought that after spending so long with Lei Luo, he had completely seen through his own personality. The nature of the teacher.

I am very happy, and I am eager to win, which is generally the case.

"Lord Hokage."

At this time, a call came from not far away, and Lei Luo and Namikaze Minato turned their heads together to look, and just saw a ninja wearing an animal mask standing there, who seemed to want to say something.

"what's up?"

"Miss Nonoyu, please go back to Hokage's office, she has something to say to you in person."

"Okay, I see." Lei Luo waved his hand, waved away the ninja who didn't know which department he was from, and then smiled slightly at Namikaze Minato:

"As a whole, Konoha is probably the only one who has the guts to shout at me, Hokage. The key is that I still have to listen."

Hearing this, Namakaze Minato thought of the relationship between Lei Luo and Nonoyu, and asked curiously, "Teacher, when do you plan to marry Miss Nonoyu? Are you going to be 26 this year?"

He glanced at Namikaze Minato, and saw that his face had a strong sense of exploration. Lei Luo didn't want to pay attention to his gossiping disciple, but considering that Nonai Yu had been with him for so long, he really should give an answer. Say it.

It is not a good thing for the overall stability of the village to keep procrastinating like this, whether it is for myself, Nonaiyu, or some ninjas who have been staring at this area.

So, Lei Luo thought for a while, and replied with some reluctance: "Wait until the end of the first five-year plan. By then, the development of all walks of life will be on the right track. You don’t have to be as busy as you are now.”

"At that time, let's think about my life."

"By the way, you and Kushina..."
