A Bit of Good Health

In the darkness, Sakumo felt that he had a very, very long dream.

He dreamed that after his death, Kakashi painfully embarked on an extreme path of growth, and at such a young age, he went to the battlefield, spending every day in killing.

Loneliness, resentment, stubbornness, even self-destruction!

Whoosh!

He suddenly woke up from his sleep, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.

"Fortunately, this is only a dream."

"Where am I?"

When he came back to his senses and looked at the strange environment around him, his expression tightened again. He subconsciously touched the dagger on his back, but he felt nothing.

He quickly looked around and found new clothes on the table next to him, as well as headband and the sabre that he had taken from him.

Only then did Sakumo find that his wounds had been treated and bandaged, and the last memories slowly surfaced in front of his eyes.

He silently changed his clothes, tied headband up on his arm, put the sabre on his back, and then pushed open the door and walked out.

"You're awake?"

The bright sunshine made Sakumo slightly narrow his eyes, and then he saw the owner of the voice clumsily playing with a little baby.

"Kakashi!"

Sakumo rushed forward and gently picked up the child.

For him, as a father, this kind of joy that was lost and restored was indescribable!

And Haru did not stop Sakumo, or rather, he was not ready to use a child to threaten Sakumo.

The reason why he took Kakashi away was simply because he was worried that Sakumo would go back to the old road in the original work and end up in such a tragic ending.

He did not believe that after Kakashi was taken away by him, Sakumo could still remain indifferent!

Reality proved that his idea was correct.

As expected, Sakumo did not try to commit suicide again. Instead, it was as if he was a different person. From Konoha, even when he was forced to the point where he had no way to retreat, he turned into a shura and began a soul-stirring slaughter!

Throughout the entire process, Haru could be said to know everything.

He had never appeared because he wanted to see how far this Sakumo could go.

If this guy chose to surrender and return to Konoha, he would undoubtedly be very disappointed.

But the result made him very surprised and happy!

The help sent by Sarutob Hiruzen was too timely.

Now he finally saw the hope of successfully recruiting Sakumo.

"Hey, don't you see that there are old friends sitting here?"

Seeing that Sakumo only had Kakashi in his eyes and did not even look at him, Haru said helplessly.

Only then did Sakumo look up at him, "Do you know? If you had not left that note at that time, I would have killed you one by one!"

After hearing this, Haru was not angry at all. Instead, he spread out his hands and said, "It turns out that I saved you."

"Saved me? You mean to hide at the side and watch a good show, and then come out and bandage me? If that's the case, I really should 'thank you' properly!"

"No, of course not." With my understanding of you, if you continue to stay in Konoha, the final outcome is likely to be extreme death. That's why I used this method to 'save' you from Konoha. Do you think there's anything wrong? "

This time, Sakumo was silent, or he could not refute.

Because he did have this thought.

The distrust of the village, the cold eyes of the people around him, and even his companions made a false accusation against him. All these experiences had already made his heart unable to bear them.

The more he cared, the more painful it was!

That was why he said those words to Hokage, "Is it that only when I die can all of this be stopped?"

From this point of view, Haru had indeed saved his life.

This was also one of the reasons why he did not immediately draw his saber and slash at the other party after seeing him.

Kakashi was his reverse scale!

Haru was the first bastard who touched his reverse scale but made him helpless!

"It seems that you really have the idea of committing suicide. Obviously, your stupidity has exceeded my imagination."

Seeing such a reaction from Sakumo, how could Haru not understand? He could not help but sneer.

Sakumo did not explain, but gently put Kakashi, who was very happy to see his father, back into the cradle.

He only said one sentence, "That is something I am willing to protect with my life."

"Regardless of whether you admit it or not, Konoha has already changed. The things you want to protect have already changed. Moreover, you can't go back. Don't tell me that people really think that after killing so many Konoha Ninjas, they can go back and continue to protect Konoha?" Haru continued to mock.

"Who is the reason for all this!"

"Did I force you to break through Konoha's door, or did I use the puppet technique to control you to kill people? I just brought my nephew out to play for two days, and I even left a note for you, so I won't take the blame!"

Sakumo was speechless again!

Indeed, the root cause of all this was the village's distrust of him.

Thinking of this, he felt very uncomfortable.

Anyone who gave everything in exchange for this kind of ending would be in extreme pain.

Seeing his bitter face, Haru finally stopped provoking him. Instead, he softened his tone and invited, "Come and help me. Akatsuki needs you, and the new Konoha also needs you. You can find what you want to protect here!"

"I can not betray Konoha."

"But the truth is that you have already 'betrayed'. Even if you can prove your innocence with your life, what about your child? Do you have the heart to let Kakashi go? Let a child have neither a mother nor a father?"

Haru's words were like a knife, deeply stabbing Sakumo.

When the two bottom lines were crazily opposing each other, for a moment, Sakumo did not know what to do.

Seeing that Sakumo began to waver, Haru immediately began to increase his strength.

"Come with me. I will take you to see some things. After you see them, you can make a choice."

Shuomao reached out to hug Kakashi. Haru was speechless. "Don't worry. Kakashi is very safe here. And if Kakashi is hungry and peed later, what will you do?"

After that, Haru immediately called someone in. The two women immediately began to take care of Kakashi carefully.

Only then did Sakumo feel relieved, but he was also a little reluctant.

In the end, he was forcefully dragged away by Haru.

...

At the same time, Sarutob Hiruzen also received information.

All the people who went to ambush were completely wiped out

It must be known that during this pursuit, Sakumo never killed anyone.

What did this mean?

Compared to this possibility, Sarutob Hiruzen would rather believe that Akatsuki had sent people to rescue Sakumo.

However, the death wounds described in the intelligence all showed that it was indeed Sakumo's own hand.

Sarutob Hiruzen could not help but throw away the information in his hand and close his eyes.
