Nagato witnessed all of this, and his attitude towards Sakumo Hatake began to change.
It's important to know that Nagato has never had a good impression of Konoha's ninjas.
His parents died at the hands of Konoha ninjas, and that bloody memory fueled his hatred for Konoha.
Even after encountering Jiraiya, Nagato hesitated for a long time before believing in the kindness of that Konoha ninja.
But Hatake Sakumo...
His actions were completely different from the stereotypical, cold-blooded Konoha ninja that Nagato had in mind.
The man's every move was so natural and gentle, yet he took meticulous care of the three of them.
His home was destroyed by war when he was a child, and his parents died at the hands of Konoha ninjas.
Such a deep-seated hatred remains unresolved for Nagato even after many years.
Therefore, when Sakumo Hatake appeared before them, Nagato felt a sense of rejection, even though the other party was someone invited by Jiraiya to take care of them.
However, watching Sakumo patiently instructing Yahiko, Nagato felt a strange sensation rising within him.
Are there people like this in Konoha?
And during cultivation.
The feeling that Sakumo Hatake gave Nagato and the others was completely different from that of Jiraiya.
Although he is usually very gentle, he becomes a completely different person when he is instructing people on swordsmanship.
His sharpness was fully revealed, and he was like a blade drawn from its sheath.
However, this only made Yahiko admire Sakumo Hatake even more.
All of this surprised Nagato and made him find it quite interesting.
……
Three days passed quickly.
Meanwhile, the login capability has been deactivated.
This means that tonight, two dreams can be realized simultaneously in the dream world.
Shigure didn't hesitate for long and directly chose Kakashi and Obito.
After all, tonight's scene is a classic moment!
……
Night falls.
In a dark mountain cave, Obito sat cross-legged alone on a cold stone bed.
He exhaled a slightly weary breath and slowly closed his one eye.
Soon, drowsiness swept over him, dragging his consciousness into deep darkness...
After an unknown amount of time, Obito vaguely felt sunlight dancing on his face.
He instinctively reached out to cover his face, but was surprised to find that he was sitting on a soft patch of grass!
Obito suddenly woke up and sat up straight from the ground.
He cautiously looked around—
Golden sunlight filters through the lush trees, swaying gently in the breeze.
Not far away, three wooden stakes, each taller than a person, stood neatly in the grass.
This scene caused Obito's breath to stop for half a second.
He rubbed his eyes, muttering incredulously to himself, "This...this is the small park in Konoha Village? I'm back here again?!"
Indeed, the familiar training scene before them was the small park in Konoha Village where they used to play as children.
Soon, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed two figures sitting not far away.
Kakashi, Rin.
On the grass, he, Kakashi, and Rin Nohara were sitting side by side.
At this moment, Kakashi, wearing a headband and the familiar black mask, looked somewhat bewildered.
He braced himself with his hands behind his back, looked up and around, seemingly puzzled by the sudden appearance of this scene.
On the other side, Lin had a cute short ponytail and a slightly childish face. She looked a little nervous and uneasy, her little hands were clasped together, but her eyes were fixed on the three wooden stakes not far away.
Obito and Kakashi locked eyes, their gazes filled with surprise and complex emotions.
Soon, both of them realized—
Needless to say, they were pulled into the dream world at the same time again today.
However, Obito couldn't be bothered with Kakashi.
He finally saw Lin, whom he had been longing to see, again!
He turned his gaze to Lin on the other side.
Lin seemed not to notice them at that moment.
She rested her chin on her hand, staring intently at the wooden stakes in front of her, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, her face filled with apprehension.
Seeing this, Obito quickly put on what he considered his most handsome smile, waved, and greeted loudly, "Hey! Rin! Good morning!"
Kakashi, who was standing nearby, rolled his eyes and thought to himself: This guy is being stupid right from the start. Is it really necessary?
Rin, with her chin resting on her hand and brows furrowed, didn't notice Obito's greeting.
She sighed softly, looked up at the empty training ground in the distance, and said gently, "Ah! What kind of person will our new Jonin leader be?"
As soon as he finished speaking, both Obito and Kakashi were taken aback.
The two suddenly looked at each other, and saw the same shock in each other's eyes: What?
So this is the time in my dream today!
at this time.
"Shh!"
A dazzling golden light suddenly flashed from beside the wooden stake!
Immediately afterwards, a bright and cheerful young voice rang in their ears: "Am I late?"
Chapter 184 Which way to drag it! Sasgei!
in the audience.
Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Jiraiya stared at the scene of Konoha Village's training ground on the screen.
Naruto looked closely and realized that the blond youth in the picture was none other than his father, Minato Namikaze!
His eyes lit up immediately, and he excitedly pointed at the screen and shouted, "Ah! It's my father!"
[Ding! Naruto's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +400!]
Sakura immediately realized what was happening and her eyes widened: "Was today's dream about when Kakashi-sensei's class was formed?!"
Sasuke subconsciously touched his chin, his gaze fixed on a black-haired boy wearing goggles standing next to Kakashi on the screen, his brows furrowed slightly: "That guy wearing goggles... he looks kind of familiar."
Although it was just a dream image, for some reason, Sasuke felt that the boy's appearance seemed familiar.
Jiraiya sat to the side, and seeing the spirited young Minato, a look of nostalgia appeared on his face.
Compared to the young and strong Minato in Naruto's previous dream, this young Minato is the one I remember most vividly...
In his memory, the young and spirited Minato Namikaze in front of him was the very disciple he had personally trained back then.
……
on the screen.
Three figures stood in the center of the field, seemingly waiting for something.
Suddenly, a golden figure appeared at the edge of the arena.
A blond, blue-eyed young ninja was walking towards the three genin.
A few strands of golden hair fell across his forehead, and a gentle, cheerful smile graced his handsome face.
He looked exceptionally smart in his standard Konoha Jonin uniform, with a light green vest draped over it.
"I am Minato Namikaze, who will be your Jonin instructor starting today. Please take good care of me!"
The voice was clear and bright, like the morning light, refreshing and soothing.
Obito and Kakashi stared at the handsome young Jonin who had just made his appearance, momentarily lost in thought.
[Ding! Kakashi Hatake's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +400!]
[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Uchiha Obito have been detected! Emotional value +500!]
Obito's expression became complicated.
Seeing his teacher standing before him again in such a youthful manner after so long, his pupils contracted slightly, and his fists clenched involuntarily.
An indescribable emotion surged in his chest, but ultimately it turned into a feeling of awkwardness and dissatisfaction.
Standing next to them, Nohara Rin was oblivious to the unusual emotions of her two companions; she was completely absorbed by the newly appointed teacher.
Lin's eyes sparkled, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she exclaimed, "What a handsome teacher! He seems very reliable!"
Obito rolled his eyes at this, curled his lip in disapproval, and then quietly leaned close to Rin's ear and whispered, "He's the most unreliable one. Rin, you must never trust him!"
"Huh?" Rin looked at Obito with some surprise and a puzzled expression. "Obito, do you have a problem with our teacher?"
Obito was hostile towards his teacher from their first meeting, leaving Rin completely baffled.
Obito was speechless when Rin asked him a question. He pursed his lips, turned his head away, and muttered in a low voice, "N-no! Just don't believe him!"
Kakashi frowned slightly upon hearing this, glanced at him sideways, knowing that Obito still harbored resentment towards their teacher, but said nothing.
Minato Namikaze naturally heard Obito's vague mutterings and couldn't help but look at the kid with goggles with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
Even though it was our first meeting, this child seemed to have a strong prejudice against me?
