Water bears at the beginning, wet bone forest eating old people

Swish-

At the gate of Konoha, the moment Hatake Sakumo stepped in without any concealment, Kakashi appeared in front of him.

"Should I call you Father-sama... or Kong Chen?"

In order to maintain secrecy, Shisui never contacted Orochimaru. All the information Orochimaru got came from Kabuto. But before Shisui's death, he still passed on a piece of information about the Akatsuki organization.

This naturally includes several code-named ninjas of the Akatsuki organization, as well as Kong Chen - Hatake Sakumo.

"Kakashi, you're already this old, and we haven't celebrated you becoming Hokage yet."

Sakumo walked forward with a smile.

Kakashi, who had a cold face at first, almost burst into tears after hearing what Sakumo said.

Kakashi is the Hokage. As the Hokage, he cannot allow Hatake Sakumo to destroy Konoha, but Hatake Sakumo is his father, and he cannot kill him, so he can only control Hatake Sakumo. This is a way that will not let down his blood relatives or the trust of the village.

But when Sakumo actually stood in front of him, calling his name like he did when they were little, Kakashi couldn't even move his legs.

bang——

Kawanzo, who was hiding in the dark, punched the place where Sakumo had just stood.

Sakumo stepped back, and the punch missed.

"Kakashi, this guy is already a traitor. He's no longer the father you once were. Be rational!"

With his back to Kakashi, Kawazo stood between Sakumo and Kakashi, staring at Hatake Sakumo coldly.

Sakumo dodged Kawatsu's attack and smiled gently.

"It's Kawatsura. When I was little, I thought you would become a great ninja. Now it seems that I was right."

"Hmph, don't try to get close to me!"

Chuan Zang raised his head, raised the corner of his mouth and snorted coldly.

"You've betrayed Konoha for so many years. Who knows what your purpose is in coming back? Besides, you even killed Shisui!"

"Uchiha Shisui, that child sacrificed himself voluntarily, alas..."

Although there was no communication, Hatake Sakumo had already seen Shisui's awareness through Kotoamatsukami, and Shisui was willing to cooperate with him.

Regardless of whether it was worth it or not, at least Hatake Sakumo did use this method to get close and kill Nagato.

"Stop farting! Your hypocritical look is making me sick!"

Sakumo gave a wry smile.

This child was quite cute when he was little, just a little naughty. Why did he have such a foul mouth when he grew up? Who did he learn this from? Mr. Gu Zang?

"Is Mr. Gu Zang still here?"

"So you're after Mr. Gu Zang. Haha, Kong Chen, if you want to enter Konoha, you have to get past me first! Wood Style! Tree World..."

"Wait, Mr. Gu Zang can prove my innocence."

“Down…down…”

Chuan Zang stopped halfway through his ultimate move and looked back at Kakashi.

"What do you mean, Kakashi?"

Kakashi calmed down and looked up at Hatake Sakumo again.

"Can I trust you, Father?"

Sakumo nodded.

"As Hokage, you must have this awareness. It's right to remain skeptical. I can seal the chakra and go with you to see Mr. Kozo. That should be fine, right?"

clap clap-

Applause rang out from the side of the gate.

Orochimaru came out from the dark place he was accustomed to.

On the other side is Jiraiya.

"What a boldness, worthy of being the White Fang of Konoha."

Orochimaru said so.

Jiraiya scratched his head.

"Well, I'm sorry, Sakumo. After all, you are a powerful figure of our time. It's a bit disrespectful to let only two juniors deal with you. You should understand~"

Sakumo smiled and shook his head, actively sealing his own chakra.

For ninjas who have come from the root to the Anbu, using chakra seals is as easy and natural as drinking water.

"Let's go and see Mr. Gu Zang. Honestly, if you come back any later, I don't know if Mr. Gu Zang will be able to stand up and argue for you."

Jiraiya muttered as if complaining.

Shuomao naturally heard it and then frowned.

"Mr. Gu Zang... is it very bad?"

"The old man is doing very well. He hasn't left the house for a long time. At least he's still alive, right?"

Jiraiya shrugged.

The group moved quickly and arrived at the Qianshou old house.

For fear of disturbing Gu Zang, Tsunade moved to the Hokage Building a long time ago, so no one usually comes to the Senju old house.

When I pushed open the door, the old wooden door creaked. The fallen leaves in the yard were piled up layer upon layer, and the ones underneath had begun to emit a rotten smell.

"Mr. Gu Zang, we are here to see you."

Chuan Zang shouted to himself in the room.

But there was no response from the house.

"No... No way..."

Jiraiya was stunned for a moment and almost slapped himself.

He was afraid that his bad mouth would really make Mr. Gu Zang die!

"Maybe he's sleeping. Let's go in and take a look."

Kakashi was worried about Hatake Sakumo and suggested that they go in first.

Several people walked across the yard with light steps, came to the room where Gu Zang was, and pushed open the half-open door.

Looking towards the bed, I saw a wrinkled insect that looked like a cicada pupa lying on the edge of the bed, motionless.

"Mr. Gu Zang?"

As they got a little closer, they discovered that Mr. Gu Zang's body was still slightly moving, which meant he was still alive.

"Ah... cough... who is coming..."

An old sound, as if stone had once struck dry bark, came from under Gu Zang's body.

Slowly raising his head, Gu Zang "looked" at several people.

"Ah... It's the monkey... How come you have time to come and see me... Is something wrong in Konoha..."

monkey?

Kakashi and Kawazo looked at each other.

They were young and didn't know Hiruzen's nickname, but Orochimaru, Jiraiya and Hatake Sakumo knew it.

"It's not Hiruzen-sensei, Kozō-san, it's us."

Jiraiya pointed at himself.

"I'm Jiraiya."

Then he pointed at the others one by one.

"Orochimaru, you know, it was you who made him Hokage, but he stepped down. Over there is the new Hokage, Kakashi, and Kawazo, whom you took care of when they were young, and this... Hatake Sakumo."

"Hatake Sakumo?"

Gu Zang shook his trembling head and looked towards Shuomao.

"Mr. Gu Zang...I...am back."

"Hehehe..."

Gu Zang suddenly laughed.

"You're still as handsome as ever, Sakumo boy. Ahem... Did it have any effect when I spared your life back then?"

After these words were spoken, almost no one present doubted Hatake Sakumo anymore.

Since it was Mr. Kozo who saved Hatake Sakumo back then, Sakumo can be trusted. This is authority.

Konoha's living fossil, Mr. Furuzo, himself represents a part of Konoha.
