Masashi Kishimoto, that lousy manga artist, what the hell does he know about Naruto! Masashi Kishimoto? A manga artist? Hatake Kakashi searched his memory carefully, yet he simply could not recall anyone who drew manga named Masashi Kishimoto. Let alone what was meant by Masashi Kishimoto knowing a damn thing about Naruto. How did this get more and more disjointed? This made absolutely no sense at all. However, Hatake Kakashi immediately noticed the mention of Uzumaki Naruto inside; could it be that in the future, the boy would grow to some astonishing degree?

The Hokage's child remained the Hokage, while the scapegoat's son remained a scapegoat. Uzumaki Naruto was undoubtedly the Hokage's child, which meant that in the future, Naruto might become the new generation's Hokage? For a moment, Hatake Kakashi thought of many things in his mind. What about that old sly bastard of the shinobi world, what was that supposed to be? Anyone who casually stepped out could destroy the heavens and the earth? Was that necessary? Was it really that exaggerated? All Hatake Kakashi could think of was that Kitahara Kaede was speaking with wild exaggeration. For if it truly followed the literal description, even a Kage-level powerhouse was fundamentally incapable of reaching the world-destroying extent that Kitahara Kaede described, unless it was the destructive power of a Tailed Beast, which could slightly align with this description. "Uzumaki Naruto? To what extent can he grow? That Dead Last?" Uzumaki Sasuke looked in shock at what was recorded in the diary. After absorbing and digesting it over this period, he could already determine that Kitahara Kaede must have mastered some sort of channel for future information. Which meant that this Dead Last, Uzumaki Naruto, would become a powerful ninja in the future? Powerful enough even to make Kitahara Kaede feel amazed? And who on earth was Masashi Kishimoto? How come he had never heard of him. As for such complaining remarks as the Hokage's child remaining the Hokage and the scapegoat's son remaining a scapegoat, Uzumaki Sasuke actually didn't feel much about them, because he himself was a supporter of this theory—or rather, a major beneficiary of it. He was originally the youngest son of the clan head of the Uchiha Clan, the number one clan in the shinobi world, standing naturally at a starting point unimaginable to ordinary ninjas. So what was wrong with the Hokage's son becoming the Hokage, and the scapegoat's son becoming a scapegoat? Born the son of the clan head, he was destined to be the one who would revive the glory of the Uchiha Clan in the future, a mission carved deep into his bones. Clearly, both Hatake Kakashi and Uzumaki Sasuke had a far higher degree of acceptance toward bloodlineism than Kitahara Kaede, or rather, they themselves were the beneficiaries of bloodlineism. Could Hatake Kakashi's becoming Konoha's Number One Technician possibly be unrelated to his father, Hatake Sakumo, the White Fang of Konoha? Yet although he didn't know who Masashi Kishimoto was, there was no doubt that this name had begun to enter the field of vision of both parties. [Next should be the ninja academy graduation, and that brat Uzumaki Naruto is the protagonist after all; even his graduation has to kick up a huge commotion, and they even stole the Scroll of Seals. What a pity I can't go check it out, otherwise, there's a high probability I'd croak! Uzumaki Naruto can be watched because he is Uzumaki Naruto; the interpersonal connections standing behind him are spread all over the Konoha Higher-ups, and apart from Pot Kage Shimura Danzō, they're all his own people. Now that's the treatment of a Crown Prince!] The Scroll of Seals was stolen? Hatake Kakashi was shocked; the importance of the Scroll of Seals to Konoha was beyond doubt, as it contained many forbidden ninjutsu that ordinary ninjas could never even hope to glance at. Even an elite jonin and Konoha's Number One Technician like him couldn't apply to learn ninjutsu from the Scroll of Seals quite so easily. Yet now it had actually been stolen because of Uzumaki Naruto's graduation? How was this possible? Given Uzumaki Naruto's comprehension, it should have been utterly impossible for him to know anything about the Scroll of Seals; meaning someone instigated him? Who could possibly instigate him? This was a very dangerous matter; who on earth was this person, and what was their objective? What made him find it even stranger was that because the Scroll of Seals was extremely important, nobody possessed the clearance to view it at any time except for the Third Hokage, and moreover, the room where the Scroll of Seals was stored always had at least one Anbu squad stationed on regular duty to guard it. How on earth did Uzumaki Naruto break through the blockade of the Anbu squad to get the Scroll of Seals? Was this reasonable? For a moment, numerous guesses flashed through Hatake Kakashi's mind. However, he did not deny the point that Uzumaki Naruto's back-end interpersonal connections were spread all over the Konoha Higher-ups, for this was also reality. His father was the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze, and his future commanding jonin was none other than himself, Konoha's Number One Technician. The sage Jiraiya, one of the Sannin, was his grand-teacher, the Third Sarutobi Hiruzen was his grand-patriarch, and his own identity as a member of the Uzumaki Clan could itself be tied back to the currently untraceable Senju Clan. It was fair to say that the very fact he could run around making trouble all day and even graffiti the Hokage Rock was thanks to these connections escorting him. If anyone else had tried it, they would have died a thousand deaths long ago. To say that Uzumaki Naruto was the hidden Crown Prince of Konoha was not the least bit exaggerated. Naturally, he was not the only Crown Prince in Konoha; there was also Konohamaru Sarutobi, who was likewise a descendant of the Hokage. Only Uzumaki Sasuke watched in utter confusion. What kind of connections did this Dead Last possibly have? He was clearly an unattended orphan; what on earth did it mean that his interpersonal connections were spread all over the upper echelons of Konoha? So much so that in the last video, Uchiha Itachi even mentioned that he specifically returned to Konoha village not for the sake of his younger brother, but for Uzumaki Naruto—the so-called legacy of the Fourth Hokage. So Uzumaki Naruto, Uzumaki Naruto, it was always Uzumaki Naruto. Who on earth was he? [After the graduation extravaganza, it should fast-forward to the Land of Waves, right? The first time the protagonist team faces a true life-or-death test, Zabuza and Kakashi's jonin battle is still pretty top-tier in the early stages. What a pity, what on earth were those later resurrections and such? Uzumaki Naruto and Uzumaki Sasuke also coordinated with great tacit understanding; as expected of the protagonist team, their performance in their very first actual combat wasn't bad. Still, Haku was truly a pity, but there remains one unsolved mystery: was Haku a man or a woman?] "Land of Waves?" Hatake Kakashi analyzed the meaning of these words. Could it be that in the future, a mission would involve the Land of Waves? The first life-or-death test? Normally speaking, given Hatake Kakashi's strength, when leading a rookie squad to complete missions, where on earth would any life-or-death test come from? Wouldn't that be looking down on him, Hatake Kakashi? Yet the moment he saw Zabuza mentioned inside, he suddenly understood everything in a flash. If ordinary missions were unlikely to have any life-or-death tests, once Zabuza was involved, everything would be entirely different. Coupled with the fact that Kisame Hoshigaki had previously stated in the video that his future self had once crossed swords with Zabuza, that must be this upcoming Battle of the Land of Waves.
