Chapter 518 So-Called Home

Kabuto brought Yūkimaru to the lake where Sanbi was located, gave him a strange medicine, and then tried to call out Sanbi through a strange head device.

However, because of something was wrong with the medicine, Sanbi did not fully appear, and Yūkimaru was also unconscious because he couldn't bear it.

Seeing this, Kabuto smiled because he knew he had succeeded.

"The next thing is to left it to Guren."

On the other side, Kakashi and the others were already on their way.

Everyone walked through the forest together.

Suddenly, Kakashi stopped on a tree.

"What's wrong, Kakashi-sensei?" Kiba asked puzzledly.

"This place is not far from the place we heard from the Anbu. Everyone be on guard. There is a possibility that the enemy may attack here at any time."

Everyone's expression turned serious when they heard this.

"Hinata, use your Byakugan to see the situation ahead and maximize your field of vision."

"Yes, Kakashi-sensei!"

"Shino, release some of your kikaichū and investigate the situation nearby."

"Understood, Kakashi-sensei."

"Kiba, you and Akamaru should try to find foreign smell."

"I understand, Kakashi-sensei! Akamaru, let's go, we're going to do a big job!" Kiba said excitedly.

Kakashi looked at Sai and said: "Sai, you will be responsible for investigating the situation at high altitude."

"Okay, Kakashi-senpai."

Sai said and then he pulled out the brush and the scroll, and drew an ink eagle in the blink of an eye.

"Ninpō: Chōjū Giga!" (Ninja Art: Super Beast Imitating Drawing)

The ink eagle flew out of the scroll and carried Sai to the sky.

Seeing this, Yamato smiled and said: "I really admire you, Kakashi-senpai. No matter which combination of people, you can quickly find the most suitable action for them."

"It's just that I have worked with too many Shinobi with different abilities, so I'm very familiar with their abilities." Kakashi said with a smile.

Yamato nodded when he heard this.

Because they are trying to investigate the situation, everyone's progress became slow.

When it was dark, they didn't find anything.

"It seems that we can only stop here for today. Yamato, prepare to rest here," Kakashi said.

"Yes, Kakashi-senpai."

Yamato said and formed hand seals with both of his hands!

"Mokuton: Shichūka no Jutsu!" (Wood Release: Four-Pillar House Technique)

In an instant, a wooden house appeared in front of Kakashi.

"Ah, it's really a convenient ability. I really want to take you with me every time I go out on a mission, Yamato." Kakashi said with a smile.

Yamato was stunned when he heard this.

"Kakashi-senpai, you are too direct. I like you to praise my ability, not this." Yamato said helplessly.

"Well, your ability is also very good."

Looking at Kakashina's perfunctory answer, Yamato felt very hurt.

The others soon returned, but they didn't have any gain.

This is also within Kakashi's expectations, so he is not surprised.

At night, everyone lived in the house.

And Kakashi is the one doing the night watch.

Kakashi is in charge of the first half of the night, and Yamato is in charge of the second half of the night.

So, at this time Kakashi was quietly doing his night watch duty by the side of the fire outside the house.

"Huh?"

Kakashi was suddenly startled as he seemed to hear some strange noise.

'Is there anyone else nearby?'

After Kakashi thought about it for a moment, he then created a shadow clone, and ordered the shadow clone to go to see the situation nearby.

Otherwise, if that sound was to lure him there, the people sleeping inside the house will be in danger.

The shadow clone walked in a certain direction, and it didn't take long to see a small lake.

And beside the lake, is a young man with long pale-green hair.

At this time, he was picking up the camellia on the side of the lace.

"That face..."

Seeing the pretty face of the boy under the moonlight, Kakashi couldn't help but feeling a little familiar, as if he had seen that face before.

Kakashi walked over slowly and stood beside the boy.

The boy also reacted at this time, put down the camellia in his hand, and looked at Kakashi.

"Hello, do you like camellia?"

The young man smiled gently and asked a strange question.

Kakashi was taken aback and obviously didn't expect that the boy's first sentence would be like this.

"Camellia? Not really."

The boy did not show disappointment when he heard this, but continued: "Is that so? I like camellia very much. It feels like they all have a homely atmosphere."

"Do you have a lot of camellia in your home?" Kakashi asked curiously. At the same time, Kakashi was constantly looking at the boy in front of him.

He feels that there seems to be a strange power on that boy's body.

But right now, Kakashi couldn't tell what it was.

"I don't know, but in my memory, there is a place is full of camellia, especially the red camellia, which is very beautiful. Maybe that is my so-called home." The boy said with a smile.

"So-called home?" Kakashi faintly repeated the boy's words.

Suddenly, the boy's expression darkened, and he said: "Unfortunately, I can't find that place."

When the boy said this, his face was full of loneliness.

Kakashi couldn't help but sympathize when he saw this.

The boy raised his head, looked at Kakashi, and said, "Do you know what the so-called home is? Can I still find that place?"

The boy's clear eyes moved Kakashi a little.

In this world, such eyes are rare.

Only someone with such a pure heart can have such a pair of clear eyes.

Facing the question of the boy, Kakashi thought about it for a while, and then slowly said: "The so-called home may not refer to a certain place. As long as someone cared for you, it is your home."

The boy was visibly stunned when he heard Kakashi's answer, and then a hint of joy appeared on his face, and he said, "That means, as long as someone misses me, is that my so-called home?"

Kakashi nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, this is what I think about the so-called home."

When the boy got the answer, he is full of joy. He then stood up and passed the white camellia in his hand to Kakashi.

"Thank you for telling me this answer. I'm very satisfied. I still have things to do so I will go first."

The boy said, trotting away.

After going for a while, the boy suddenly turned around and said, "By the way, my name is Yūkimaru. I'm glad to meet you, Shiro oji-san."

The boy finished speaking and left in a hurry.

Kakashi suddenly felt a critically hit after hearing what Yūkimaru called him.

'Am I really looked that old?'

Kakashi felt helpless and then looked at the camellia in his hand.

"What an interesting boy. But why is he here?"

Kakashi was a little puzzled, but didn't follow after Yūkimaru.

The shadow clone then brought back the camellia back to the real body. After putting the camellia down, it disappeared with a bang.

The memory of the clone poured into Kakashi's mind, and he whispered softly: "Yukimaru?"
