December 24, Konoha 47.
More than a month has passed since Namikaze Minato became the fourth Hokage, and Konoha's 47 years are coming to an end.
After Namikaze Minato came to power, he also reused Uchiha Makoto, which made his originally leisurely life become busy.
In fact, when Minato Namikaze came to power, there were still some objections in the village, saying that he was too young and not stable enough.
However, in Uchiha Makoto's opinion, most of these are deliberately spread by thoughtful people.
There is a high probability that it is Danzo. After all, he himself has coveted the position of Hokage for a long time. His previous support for Orochimaru to compete for the position of the Fourth Hokage was also to gain more power in order to seek the position of Hokage in the future.
Namikaze Minato was a little dissatisfied with Danzo's behavior. After becoming the Fourth Hokage, the conflict intensified. In just over a month, the two sides had many quarrels in high-level meetings.
These were all seen by Uchiha Makoto with his own eyes.
Because of his active performance on the Iwagakure battlefield and the respect he received from Namikaze Minato, he now serves as Namikaze Minato's exclusive Hokage bodyguard.
He is also qualified to participate in high-level meetings and is the youngest among those participating in high-level meetings.
However, this was also attacked by Danzo, but due to Namikaze Minato's tough attitude, it was ignored.
Namikaze Minato implemented reforms as soon as he came to power. He made many suggestions that would help Konoha regain its strength, but they were still opposed by the higher-ups.
Even the Third Hokage, who supported his succession, opposed Namikaze Minato's big moves, believing that he should focus on stability and slowly implement reforms.
Namikaze Minato is different from these higher-ups. He was truly born at the bottom and worked his way up step by step. He understands many details that the higher-ups don't care about.
However, in the face of opposition from high-level officials, he found that although he became the Fourth Hokage, there were very few people who could still use him and the power he could exercise was limited.
Konoha's Anbu were under the control of the Third Hokage and Danzo. Although the Third Hokage abdicated, most of the Anbu power in his hands was not handed over to Namikaze Minato.
From Uchiha Makoto's point of view, Namikaze Minato really valued him, but on the other hand, there weren't many people he could use.
...
Bang bang bang!
In an inaccessible dense forest, the sound of fists hitting flesh kept coming.
Uchiha Makoto was having a fierce duel with Kakashi.
The two did not use ninjutsu, but only used taijutsu to fight.
But even though he only used taijutsu, Kakashi was much inferior to Uchiha Makoto.
Uchiha Makoto's mental power continued to grow due to his practice of [The Way of Wuju]. Coupled with the evolution of Sharingan to the three magatama, his mental power further improved.
As his mental power increased, he found that his reaction speed also became faster.
He easily saw through and dodged all Kakashi's attacks.
Snapped!
Uchiha Makoto punched Kakashi hard on the chest. Seeing that Kakashi couldn't dodge, he quickly spread his fingers, turned his fist into a palm, and hit Kakashi on the chest.
Kick, kick, kick!
Kakashi was knocked back seven or eight steps by Uchiha Makoto, and fell onto his butt.
He was sweating profusely and panting, sitting on the grass without getting up.
Apparently the battle between the two has been going on for quite some time.
Uchiha Makoto, standing opposite Kakashi, felt that his warm-up had just ended.
Kakashi died before the fight even started.
"Kakashi, your physical strength has never been this bad before."
Kakashi sat on the ground, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "I don't know why, but I always feel very physically exhausted recently."
Hearing this, Uchiha Cheng looked at Kakashi's left eye covered under his forehead protector and frowned:
"You are not from the Uchiha clan. Without the blood of our clan, there is no way to close the Sharingan.
Also using Sharingan, you will consume more chakra.
And the Sharingan that cannot be closed will consume your energy 24 hours a day.
Although covering it with a forehead protector will reduce consumption, the effect is not great. "
Sharingan's dynamic vision is equivalent to a passive skill. As long as you open your eyes and see something, you will automatically use this ability, so you will feel that seeing any dynamic objects will slow down.
In particular, the three Magatama Sharingan can copy the enemy's movements, which also consume chakra.
Kakashi covers his Sharingan with an eyepatch, which is equivalent to closing his eyes and not using these passive abilities, but as long as his eyes are still open, he will continue to consume chakra and physical strength.
Recall that in the original work, Kakashi became a jounin at the age of 12.
After obtaining Obito's Three Magatama Sharingan, for more than ten years, although he gained the reputation of 'Konoha Technician Copying Ninja Kakashi', his strength improved very slowly.
Kakashi's Sharingan achievement also restricted him and could even be said to have delayed his talent.
After hearing Uchiha Makoto's explanation, Kakashi touched his left eye covered by his forehead protector and said solemnly: "This was given to me by Obito. Even if it doesn't suit me, I won't give it up. I want to help him see the future of the ninja world clearly."
Uchiha Makoto smiled and said: "Don't worry, although some people in the clan ask for your Sharingan to be taken back, the clan leader has already said that you must respect Obito's will and no one will cause trouble for you!
I also want you to give up the Sharingan, and instead think of ways to reduce the impact of the Sharingan on you.
Otherwise, such continuous consumption will have a great impact on your physical development alone.
I will ask the clan for you.
Besides, Minato-senpai is good at sealing techniques, so he might have a way to help you solve this problem temporarily.
Kushina-senpai is from the Uzumaki clan, and Minato-senpai learned all his sealing techniques from her, so maybe there will be a way. "
"Minato-sensei?" Kakashi muttered after hearing this.
Seeing Kakashi's depressed mood, Uchiha Makoto was also helpless.
After all, many psychological traumas are very difficult to heal in the future.
"Kakashi, I've been in this situation before, but my relationship with my teammates was average at the time, so I didn't feel depressed for long.
I can't just say a few words to make you feel relieved, but your dead teammates definitely don't want you to see you like this.
Even if it's for them, you have to cheer up.
Although time is the best medicine for healing wounds, don’t spend too much time on it.
Think about Minato-senpai, he also needs your help very much now. "
Uchiha Makoto comforted Kakashi with earnest words.
At Namikaze Minato's request, let him unlock Kakashi.
Uchiha Makoto was reluctant at first, because this kind of thing cannot be solved simply.
But after a second thought, he made up his mind to make Kakashi recover as soon as possible.
Namikaze Minato has been a little too dependent on him lately, and it's only been like this for more than a month.
If Kakashi is not cheered up as soon as possible and Namikaze Minato has a few more useful confidants, he will have to be busy in the future.
Kakashi must cheer up!
However, Uchiha Makoto did not use verbal therapy on Kakashi for a period of time at the beginning, but used physical therapy.
The main thing is to find Kakashi to practice and beat him "half to death", so that he is so tired that he just wants to rest, and he doesn't even have time to be sad and painful.
After Kakashi was ravaged by Uchiha Makoto for a period of time, he gradually changed slightly.
However, Uchiha Makoto cannot accept this progress.
Today I just want to talk about Kakashi Sharingan.
Anyway, as long as Kakashi's strength is improved, he can share many tasks for him.
Psychological injuries should be treated slowly, not in a rush.
"Uchiha Makoto, please go to the Hokage's office immediately. The Fourth Generation will summon you!"
Just when Uchiha Makoto was about to continue physical therapy on Kakashi, an ANBU appeared opposite the two.
"I understand, let's go now!" Uchiha Cheng nodded after hearing this, and then said hello to Kakashi, asking him to meet at the same place tomorrow.
Kakashi raised his hand, opened his mouth slightly, and hesitated to speak, with a helpless expression on his paralyzed face.
It's just that Uchiha Makoto didn't give him a chance to refuse. He just used the teleportation technique and left with the ANBU ninja.
"Lin died at my hands. Can I really forgive myself? Can I really let go?"
In fact, after Uchiha Makoto's hellish "torture" during this period, Kakashi wanted to fall asleep every time he came home.
It's just that he couldn't overcome the hurdle in his heart.
Although he knew that Lin deliberately committed suicide by crashing into his Chidori to protect Konoha, he could not forgive himself.
Kakashi lay on the grass and looked up at the sky.
"Obito, you must blame me for not protecting Lin!"
...
Uchiha Makoto knocked on the door of the Hokage's office.
"Please come in." Minato Namikaze's gentle voice came.
Uchiha Makoto walked into the room and bowed slightly, "Minato-senpai."
Although Minato Namikaze had been called Yondaime-sama before, Minato Namikaze said he was not used to it and insisted that he use the previous title. Of course, he could change the title when necessary.
Of course, Uchiha Makoto would not turn a blind eye to Namikaze Minato treating him as one of his own.
Namikaze Minato suddenly said seriously: "Uchiha Makoto, as the Fourth Hokage, I order you to join the ANBU directly under the Hokage from today on."
Then his tone returned to the same as before, "Cheng, leave the escort task to others.
As you know my situation, not many people can use it.
As my right-hand man, I have more important things to entrust to you. "
Uchiha Makoto twitched the corner of his mouth with a look of helplessness on his face. This was because he didn't treat him as an outsider.
If it weren't for the fact that child labor was not used in the Naruto world, Uchiha Makoto would have protested.
"yes!"
However, he still accepted the order, but he overturned his previous thoughts and must step up to help Kakashi recover.
