The position of Hinata Hyuga was originally occupied by someone else. At first, he thought that the most suitable candidate should be Sasuke Uchiha.
Unfortunately, something happened to Night of the Uchiha Massacre of the Uchiha Clan, and Sasuke Uchiha disappeared.
I don't know if Sasuke Uchiha is dead or something happened. After all, the entire Uchiha Clan Compound has been evacuated, and not a single body is left.
Although most people think that Sasuke Uchiha should be dead, after all, a furious Uchiha, after watching the murderer who destroyed his family escape, saw the murderer's Younger Brother. It is hard to say that he would not vent his anger on the murderer's Younger Brother.
But Hiruzen Sarutobi's intuition told him that Sasuke Uchiha was not dead, and he would appear again.
Finally, Hiruzen Sarutobi made a decision and put together the information of Naruto Uzumaki and Hinata Hyuga as well as Sakura Haruno and Kakashi.
"Here comes someone."
"Lord Hokage!"
A Ninja quickly walked into Hokage Office.
"Go and notify Kakashi to come to my place and transfer Kakashi's information from ANBU. He will no longer work at ANBU."
"Yes!"
Hatake Clan, Kakashi got up from the bed, finished washing, and walked into the dining room to see Sakumo Saiki (Hatake Sakumo) sitting there reading the newspaper. Breakfast was already prepared on the dining table.
"Get up, let's eat first."
"Okay, Uncle Zuo Yun."
"Tuk-tuk-tuk~!"
Kakashi As soon as he sat down, there was a knock on the door.
"You eat, I'll open the door."
Sakumo put down the newspaper and walked towards the door.
"Coming."
When Sakumo opened the door, he saw a Ninja wearing a Jonin vest. He recognized it at a glance. This Jonin was Special Jōnin who was working inside Hokage Building.
"Hello, is Kakashi at home? Lord Hokage has ordered him to go to Hokage Office."
"Okay, I understand. He will be there after breakfast."
"I've finished eating, let's go now."
Kakashi simply stuffed two mouthfuls of food, drank a glass of milk and walked out.
"Okay, then come with me, Captain Kakashi."
As Anbu Captain, Kakashi is still very respected among the Ninja of Konoha.
Hokage Office, Kakashi knocked on the door.
"Come in."
After receiving Hiruzen Sarutobi's permission, Kakashi walked into the office.
"Lord Hokage, what orders do you have from me?"
"Oh, it's Kakashi."
Hiruzen Sarutobi saw it was Kakashi, put down Smoking Pipe and showed a kind smile.
"Kakashi, you have been working at ANBU for a long time, right?"
Kakashi nodded, not knowing why Lord Hokage suddenly asked this.
"Although you have done a good job at ANBU, I think you are still young and should not always live in the shadows like this.
You should also live under Sunlight again and walk around more in front of everyone, otherwise Hatake Clan's name will start to fall apart from you. Your father White Fang of the Leaf is our Konoha hero."
Saying this, Hiruzen Sarutobi stood up, came to Kakashi and patted his shoulder.
"So, starting from today, I will relieve you of all responsibilities and work at ANBU, and transfer you away from ANBU."
"What! But Lord Hokage, I transferred ANBU, what should I do with the unfinished work?"
Kakashi is a little confused. Why did you call me here so early in the morning? Do you want to tell yourself that you have been dismissed?
"The unfinished work will naturally be taken over by someone else."
As he spoke, Hiruzen Sarutobi clapped his hands.
"Tenzo, come out."
"Lord Hokage."
A Ninja wearing a ANBU uniform and an animal mask came out.
"Take off the mask."
Tenzo took off his mask and waved towards Kakashi.
"Hello, senior Kakashi."
"Tenzo!"
Kakashi was a little surprised. He didn't expect Tenzo to appear here.
After Orochimaru's Human Experimentation was exposed, Tenzo was rescued. First he was incorporated into Root, and later because of contact with Kakashi, Coupled with the ideological disagreement with Danzo, after the number of Wood Release was exposed, he was asked by Hiruzen Sarutobi to join ANBU and became the descendant of Kakashi.
"From now on, all your Anbu Captain's work will be handed over to Tenzo. Tenzo is the junior you brought up with your own hands. You should be able to rest assured if you leave it to him."
Tenzo looked at Kakashi and smiled proudly.
"Hehehe, senior Kakashi, don't worry, I will complete your work well."
"Tenzo! Don't be too proud, kid!"
"Okay Kakashi, just like I said, it's time for you to return to work under Sunlight."
Hiruzen Sarutobi took out the information he had compiled and handed it to Kakashi.
"From now on, you will be a team leader Jonin. Take a good look at this information. These children will get along with you for a long time."
Kakashi took the information and opened it.
"Naruto Uzumaki, Hinata Hyuga, Sakura Haruno?"
Seeing these three names, Kakashi took a deep breath.
"They are all troublesome characters. An important Jinchūriki in the village, and a Hyuga Clan eldest lady. This Sakura Haruno is the more normal one. Lord Hokage, I'm afraid I can't do this job well."
"No, Kakashi, I believe in you, you will definitely be qualified for this job."
Hiruzen Sarutobi patted Kakashi on the shoulder again and comforted him.
"Kakashi, Naruto are the children of your teacher Minato. With this kind of relationship, I believe you will be able to get along well with him."
"Minato-sensei..."
Kakashi looked at the information in his hand and couldn't help but cover his left eye.
At that moment, many past memories appeared in his mind.
Until that war took away two of his teammates, and finally Night of the Nine-Tails took away his teacher.
In the original Ninja class, I was the only one left.
Hiruzen Sarutobi knew what Kakashi was thinking, so he spoke to comfort him.
"Kakashi, lead this class well and pass on what Minato taught you, okay?"
Finally Kakashi took a deep breath and accepted the information.
"I know Lord Hokage, I will complete the task!"
"Well, that's good, I believe you."
"Come on, senior Kakashi, leave ANBU's work tasks to me. I will definitely complete them perfectly!"
Tenzo on the side patted his chest and assured Kakashi.
Kakashi glanced at Tenzo and couldn't help but shook his head.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you, come on."
"Okay Kakashi, go down and prepare first."
"I understand Lord Hokage, then I'll go down first."
"Go ahead."
Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand and was in a good mood.
"In this way, Naruto has a few more people to bind to in the village.
Then the next one is Jiraiya."
