Konoha's Thief Hand

Chapter 491 Final Examination

“It’s been a long time.” Xia Shu said with a smile, and took off the cat face mask that covered his face. “Kakashi.”

“Matsuzaki-senpai?” Kakashi was startled for a moment, and then he remembered why he felt familiar when he saw the other party’s mask.

In fact, he should remember this cat face mask very clearly, but he didn’t recognize it for a while. Obviously he just didn’t want to remember it, and even deliberately wanted to forget it.

It’s just that in many cases, deliberately want to forget, but will remember more firmly.

And even if it is forgotten by chance, the forgotten thing will reappear in some unexpected way at some moment, but whether it reappears is a good thing or a bad thing, but no one can easily determine.

But at least, Natsuki can be sure that Kakashi doesn’t want to see himself, or that he just doesn’t want to see his cat face mask.

“Although you don’t want to see me, you must see now, because I am specifically responsible for training you.” Xia Shu shrugged, hugging her arms, “But before that, you have to meet Master Danzo first.”

“If you participate in Anbu recruit training, you must first see Master Danzo?” Kakashi asked with a frown.

He is a disciple of Namikaze Minato, and Namikaze Minato is also a disciple of Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen. Although Danzo is in the same line as Hokage on the whole, there is a great difference in philosophy between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzō. Therefore, Kakashi doesn’t have a lot of affection for Danzo, and some just respect Konoha’s ancestors.

“You should know that you are the special one.” Xia Shu said with a smile, then turned around and said: “Follow up.”

When the voice fell, he had already flew out, fast, as if he was planning to get rid of Kakashi at all.

Kakashi was at a loss for a moment, and suddenly recovered. He couldn’t help but sipped, but his body hurried to catch up.

Natsuki didn’t get rid of Kakashi. Although he might not be able to do it if he had the intention, he just wanted to make the atmosphere more active, so as not to face a gloomy, cold guy next time.

Entering the root base, passing through the underground square where a dozen recruits are training, finally came to a closed door.

“Come in.” Natsuki leaned sideways and looked at Kakashi and said, “Master Danzo is waiting for you.”

“Yeah.” Kakashi glanced at him, took a deep breath, pushed the door and walked in.

When the door opened and closed again, Natsuki raised her eyebrows and showed a trace of playfulness, waiting for Kakashi to come out of it.

He has done a lot for training Kakashi, ensuring that in a short time, he can train Hatake Kakashi to become a qualified Anbu ninja.

…

In a blink of an eye, half a decade of time passed. For Hatake Kakashi, this short time was not easy.

In the kingdom of frost, the desolate wind was blowing, like a hungry beast roaring wildly.

In a cave, the light of a bonfire illuminates the cold night outside. It seems to be the only warm place between the world and the earth, and the lingering smoke carries an alluring scent of greedy insects. Even the beasts that came out for food at night were attracted by the smell and followed the smell to find them.

At this moment, a wind broke through the air. The thin, coveted beast was trotting quickly, and suddenly tilted its head and fell down. In a flash, there was no trouble caused by hunger. And pain.

“I really don’t want to come here again.” Picking up the dry and thin prey, Xia Shu raised his eyes and looked around, sighed and shook his head, turned and walked towards the cave not far away, “I have the strength to fill my stomach and continue. Complain.”

Turn out the bait that is burning in the campfire, then skillfully peel off the prey, take out the internal organs, skewer on the grill and start the barbecue, while carefully sprinkling various condiments.

When the aroma had filled the cave, there was a sound of footsteps outside. Xia Shu didn’t lift her eyelids, and continued to turn the grill. The golden oil dripped from the fragrant meat, swelling in the fire. There was a sizzle, and the wisps of smoke floated up, particularly irritating people’s tongue.

“You actually eat barbecue here?” Hatake Kakashi dragged his exhausted and injured body, supported the wall of the cave, took off the mask on his face, gritted his teeth in disbelief.

“Eat? Haven’t eaten yet.” Xia Shu grinned, “I just grilled it specially to welcome you.”

“Haha.” Kakashi glanced at the small pile of bones by the wall, “I believe it.”

“You have to wait a while, I will treat you first.” Natsuki got up from the grill, picked up the ninja bag set aside, took out the items needed for simple medical treatment, and came to Kakashi’s side. Use medical ninjutsu to heal his injuries.

Although Natsuki’s medical ninjutsu is not often used, under the subtle control of Chakra, the effect can be said to be immediate. The trauma suffered by Kakashi’s body was quickly stopped and then bandaged.

“You should have met me on the outside, not here!” After bandaging the wound, Kakashi looked serious and slightly annoyed at the humanity who returned to the grill again.

“Remember what I said to you when I came here?” Xia Shu turned the grill and said with a hehe with a smile: “You may not care, but since you have come back intact, that’s enough.”

Kakashi frowned when he heard the words, but did not refute it. He just remembered what the other party had said when he came: This is the last assessment. The mission target and me are both your examiners.

How could the examiner go out to help the examinee? The so-called external response is simply a confusing remark.

“Is this the final test?” Kakashi asked, staring at the fragrant barbecue.

“That’s right. Although Anbu is divided into teams, you can only make the best use of it if you are assigned to perform some difficult tasks. In many difficult tasks, you can only rely on yourself. , So the final assessment lies in whether you can complete the task alone without anyone’s help.” Xia Shu dissipated the bonfire, and the fire instantly diminished. He took out a knife and cut a piece of meat into his mouth. In, smiled suddenly and nodded in satisfaction.

Kakashi swallowed. In order to kill the target of this mission, he went deep into the land of thunder and lurked at the predetermined location for five days and four nights. He only relied on bingliang pills to maintain his physical condition. He returned after a fierce battle and smelled it. Such a tempting aroma, it is almost impossible to hold on to it.

“Don’t swallow there, come and cut yourself.” Natsuki looked at Kakashi amused, and stretched out his hand to say: “After this meal, take a good rest, we will return to Konoha tomorrow. Your training will also Then it ends.”
