Chapter 97: Former Teammates Reunite, Does Kakashi Have a Son?  

---

Sasuke shook his head to stop himself from dwelling on these thoughts and said calmly, "Forget it, you should just walk around Konoha by yourself."

He looked at Rin, concern flashing in his eyes. "By the way, remember not to reveal your true identity!" Sasuke reminded her, his voice low and serious.

After saying this, Sasuke turned and walked away, leaving Rin standing alone.

Rin was stunned for a moment, watching Sasuke's retreating figure. A mix of emotions surged in her heart. Hearing that Sasuke asked her to go to Konoha Village, Rin's eyes filled with anticipation.

She couldn't help but think of her days in Konoha, and those familiar people and things came to mind. "I wonder what's going on in Konoha now..." Rin whispered to herself, a deep longing in her eyes.

Suddenly, she thought of Kakashi again, the Kakashi she once liked.

"And Kakashi..." Rin murmured softly, her thoughts drifting into the distance. She wanted to know how Kakashi was doing now and whether he had found happiness.

However, when she thought about Kakashi having a girlfriend, Rin couldn't help but laugh. The thought amused her greatly. She really couldn't imagine what it would be like for Kakashi to be in love.

Rin slowly calmed her inner turmoil and decided to follow Sasuke's advice—to go out for a walk and take a look around. After all, she also wanted to see what Konoha Village looked like now.

**Konoha Shopping Street.**

Rin wore a mask, wrapped herself tightly, and strolled through the bustling streets. She observed everything around her curiously, feeling the changes in Konoha. The streets were crowded with people, and various sounds interwove to form a bustling symphony.

Rin was in a happy mood, enjoying the long-lost lively atmosphere. As she walked, Rin came to Ichiraku Ramen. She stopped and saw through the window that the place was full of guests, including two particularly conspicuous figures—a man with silver-white hair and a boy with golden hair. They were eating noodles and looked very focused.

Rin paused and recognized the man. It was her former companion—Hatake Kakashi! As for the other person, could it be his child?!

But that made sense. After all, Kakashi was so handsome and strong. Getting married and having children seemed perfectly normal.

Rin guessed in her mind, then walked over to sit near the two of them. When Teuchi, the ramen shop owner, saw Rin entering, he enthusiastically came over to greet her. "Hello, what would you like to eat?"

Rin shook her head and lowered her voice, saying, "No, thank you." After all, she was currently in a reincarnated state and didn't need to eat at all.

Teuchi nodded and went about his business. Kakashi, sitting nearby, heard her voice, and for some reason, it sounded somewhat familiar. But after thinking about it, he couldn't recall where he had heard it before. In the end, he had no choice but to give up. Still, the fact that this person was trying to hide their identity made him suspicious.

Given that spies from other villages had been frequently coming to Konoha to gather information, Kakashi had caught several spies over the past few days. He suspected that the person in front of him might also be a spy.

Rin felt Kakashi's gaze, and her heart tightened. Had she been discovered? Rin quickly lowered her head, not daring to meet Kakashi's eyes. She knew she could be in danger if discovered.

And Kakashi, observing Rin's reaction, grew even more suspicious. This person seemed to be deliberately hiding their identity and appeared very nervous. Could they really be a spy?

Kakashi decided to observe this person secretly.

At that moment, Naruto suddenly asked, "Kakashi-sensei, I heard that you were my dad's apprentice."

Hearing this question, Kakashi replied, "Yeah, what's wrong?" Could it be that Naruto was blaming him for not taking care of him when he was a child? After all, as the Fourth Hokage's apprentice, he hadn't even taken care of the Hokage's son.

But Naruto was still the same Naruto, and he wouldn't change because of his identity.

"Our current team is a three-person team, so my dad's team should have also been a three-person team, right? Besides you, Kakashi-sensei, where are the other two? Why have I never seen them?" Naruto asked, puzzled. After all, his team didn't start with just the three of them.

Hearing Naruto's words, Kakashi's eyes flashed with pain. "They... they died on the battlefield," Kakashi said in a low tone.

Hearing this, Naruto was shocked, a guilty look on his face. He quickly said, "I'm sorry, Kakashi-sensei, I didn't know..."

Kakashi shook his head and told him it was okay. He could not let go of this matter. After all, for Konoha, Rin and Obito were heroes. Without Rin, who knew what kind of consequences that war would have had?

After all, everyone had already seen the power of the Tailed Beasts during the Nine-Tails' attack.

Rin, nearby, also heard the conversation between the two. There was a look of reminiscence on her face. She felt nostalgic. Back then, things had been different. Now, things had changed.

Obito had come back from the dead and became a villain. Minato-sensei had passed away. And now, she was serving Sasuke. Only Kakashi remained.

Rin couldn't help but wonder how she would feel if she knew that Kakashi was in the same situation as Sasuke.

Afterward, Rin stood up and left the ramen shop. Kakashi, seeing this, said a few words to Naruto before quietly following her.

Rin walked back toward the Uchiha Clan compound. Kakashi, following her, saw that she was heading to the Uchiha Clan and thought, "Is this spy here to steal the Sharingan?"

After all, only Sasuke and his close associates lived in the Uchiha Clan compound now. Apart from going after Sasuke's Sharingan, Kakashi couldn't think of another reason why someone would be here.

Just as Rin was about to walk through the door, Kakashi knew he couldn't wait any longer. Using the Body Flicker Technique, he appeared in front of Rin and said coldly, "Stop! This is the Uchiha Clan's territory. What is your purpose for coming here?"

Rin was shocked to see Kakashi again. She hadn't expected that he had been following her. But she couldn't be blamed; after all, Kakashi was now an elite jonin, and Rin's strength before her death wasn't even at that level. How could she have noticed Kakashi's presence?

Just as Rin was about to speak, she noticed a figure appear behind Kakashi at some point.

"It seems like you two have met before?" Sasuke said calmly.
