When the matter concerning the Military Police Force was finally settled, Kazashiro was enjoying fruit juice with his friends in the hot spring.
That night, they all stayed in single rooms.
Of course, Kazashiro paid for all of this.
As for where the money came from...
An unknown account from North Central Town would regularly send Kazashiro an unspecified amount of money every month.
The next day, while Kazashiro was still curled up in bed dreaming of Kakuzu 'Kakuzu death and his inheritance of a large fortune, a loud knocking on the door startled him awake.
Kazashiro opened the door, still half asleep, and saw Obito looking at him Obito.
"What's wrong?"
Yawning, Kazashiro turned to the side, gesturing for the other person to come in, and at the same time asked Obito what his purpose was.
"Didn't we agree to help Lin with her transfer procedures today? Why are you still sleeping?"
Obito shook his head, indicating that he could stay outside, and then asked Kazashiro when they would depart.
"Oh? Is that so? Let me think about it..."
Hearing Obito say that, Kazashiro was clearly taken aback.
Having spent so many years with Kazashiro, Obito could tell at a glance that Kazashiro had completely forgotten about the matter, and with a bitter face, he repeated Kazashiro's words and actions from the previous night.
"It seems so. Alright, I understand. If you don't want to come in, just wait outside. I need to change my clothes."
Kazashiro seemed to sense that there was such a thing, but didn't take it too seriously.
That being said, this concerns Obito's lifelong happiness, so it should indeed be taken seriously.
However, the solution is actually quite simple.
"Let's go, you idiot Obito."
After changing his clothes and wearing Jonin vest, Kazashiro kicked Obito in the butt, signaling the latter to follow him.
"Hurry up, I bought a room number for three days, and I need to come back for another soak in the hot springs at noon."
Muttering about how expensive the hot spring tickets were, Kazashiro led Obito to the girls' quarters and called Rin out as well.
Inside Konoha Hospital.
Nobisuke, who had recently become the hospital's director, sat in his office, listening to his subordinates' reports while constantly rubbing his right eyelid.
"Is there a problem, Dean?"
The department head, who was reporting on the hospital's occupancy rate yesterday, immediately began to fawn over his hospital director when he saw him like this.
"It's nothing, I probably just didn't sleep well last night."
While saying this to his subordinates, Nobisuke had a bad feeling about it.
Speaking of which, that young girl, Rin Nohara, took three days off. I heard she was going to a reunion with her former comrades-in-arms. I thought I'd take advantage of her being back from leave to let my son meet them.
Although my Nobi Clan cannot compare to a major clan like the Sarutobi clan, we were still a force that joined Konoha during the First Hokage's time. Marrying a girl from a commoner background is already giving her a lot of face.
Thinking of his son, who had mastered the Three Body Technique before graduation, Nobisuke felt that the boy's future was incredibly bright.
Becoming Jonin before the age of thirty shouldn't be a problem.
"Huh? Why is the door locked?"
Just as Nobisuke was planning for his son's future, the sound of a doorknob turning came from the locked office door.
Standing outside the door, fiddling with the doorknob, was Kazashiro other than Kazeshiro, who had already learned almost everything about Nobisuke.
Standing behind her were Rin, who looked very nervous, and Obito, who kept comforting her.
Further away, two ninjas responsible for guarding the hospital were being talked to by Root ninjas brought by Kazashiro.
Oh, the Root has been reorganized. They can no longer be called Root ninjas; instead, they are instructors in the Anbu Training Department, and are officially part of the Anbu.
"Let me!"
When it came to his own happiness, Obito's temper flared up instantly, and he was about to kick open the door in front of him.
"How could you be so rough? What if the dean was having a heart-to-heart talk with a female subordinate?"
Reaching out and grabbing Obito's collar, Kazashiro was astonished to find that the guy he had grown up with was now taller than him.
It's decided, I'll add a bottle of milk to every meal when I get back!
Giving Obito a disdainful look, Kazashiro, under the watchful eyes of the others, channeled his ice-attribute Chakra into the keyhole, condensing it into a key, and successfully opened the door.
"You..."
The room wasn't very soundproof, so everything Kazashiro said was overheard by the dean and the director.
Seeing that the other person had swaggered into his room, Nobisuke could no longer contain his anger and was about to slam his fist on the table and reprimand the other person.
At the same time, he didn't forget to call out to the ninjas in charge of hospital security, "Where are the security personnel? Why did they let unauthorized personnel into the office area!"
"Don't be so nervous, Dean Nobi."
With a look of disgust, Kazashiro surveyed the office decor, reaching out to stroke the armrest of the sofa placed on the east side of the room.
"Dean."
At that moment, Rin Nohara also entered the office.
The moment the dean saw Rin Nohara, he immediately understood the purpose of the person who had come before him.
Ha, they actually hired a Jonin to bolster their reputation? It seems the rumors about Rin Nohara participating in the Third Shinobi World War are true. This girl does indeed have some comrades of considerable rank from the same period.
Only...
Looking up at Kazashiro, who was standing in front of the sofa seemingly lost in thought, the Dean couldn't recall who in Konoha was a female Jonin of that age.
"You can go now."
Nobisuke's tone remained unchanged as he gestured for the director to leave the office.
He's just Jonin, but there are quite a few Jonin in this hospital who ask him for favors.
"Uh, yes, yes."
Nobisuke didn't recognize who Kazashiro was, but the director who rushed to work overtime when the Uchiha attacked Konoha recognized Kazashiro's identity.
There's nothing we can do; they got their own hospital beds.
Knowing Kazashiro's background, he left the office without saying a word, and as soon as he stepped outside, he encountered two Anbu holding down security ninjas to prevent them from leaving.
"These people are up to no good. Good luck to you."
Seeing the pleading look from the security guard, the director covered his face with a folder, pretending not to see it.
"I'm very busy with work, and although you shouldn't be here discussing issues with me according to your rank, Rin Nohara is an outstanding medical worker at our hospital, so I can hear what's on your mind."
After tidying himself up, Nobisuke casually picked up the application form that Rin Nohara had submitted earlier, ready to thoroughly humiliate Kazashiro in front of him.
Even someone as intelligent as Obito could sense the disdain in Nobisuke's words.
Does this mean that Kazashiro is not qualified to speak with him face-to-face?
Has he always been this brave?
Obito's expression instantly twisted.
Even Rin Nohara, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but start to worry about the dean.
I just want a job transfer; I don't want to cause any bloodshed.
