"Ayame, you said... Did Sōkū really betray Konoha?" In Hatake Clan Compound, Mitaraishi Anko looked at Ayame with a sad face, she heard the news about Sōkyū Hatake.
It should have been a very happy thing, but I didn't expect that it would be this news.
"I believe Sōkū will not betray Konoha. He must have his own reasons." Ayame sat on the swing and looked up at the scorching sun in the sky.
In the past, the extremely dazzling scorching sun now gave Ayame a gloomy feeling.
Yes, after hearing the news, they all fell into hesitation.
"Brother Kakashi, Sōkū is he really?" Mitaraishi Anko looked to the other side, Kakashi Hatake was not alive at all, as if these things had nothing to do with him.
However, from Kakashi Hatake's empty eyes, everything seemed so gloomy.
His father died, his best friend died, and his last remaining brother also rebelled. This was the biggest blow to Kakashi Hatake.
Moreover... he witnessed the entire process of Sōkyū Hatake's rebellion.
When he thought of this, Kakashi Hatake recalled all the various things Sōkyū Hatake had said to him before.
"There is a price to pay for clearing my father's grievances."
"I will bear all the dark sides."
"Stupid brother, you can just watch these things."
"Kakashi, you don't have this awareness, but I do."
"Just be responsible for restoring Hatake Clan's glory."
Yes, everything is so strict, everything is just as Sōkyū Hatake expected.
This matter must be done when Hiruzen Sarutobi is in office, but they all know that it is not an easy matter to make Hiruzen Sarutobi admit this mistake, or admit Shimura Danzō and his own dark plans.
"Sōkū, so... did you expect this from the beginning?" Kakashi Hatake did not answer Mitaraishi Anko's words, but murmured to himself.
"Brother Kakashi, what do you mean you expected it from the beginning?" Mitaraishi Anko heard Kakashi Hatake's words and stepped forward directly to ask.
"Sōkū has been planning these things, and these things are very important to us Hatake Clan, but... I didn't know until today... I am too weak!" Kakashi Hatake covered his face, and two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks.
Yes, until today, Kakashi Hatake didn't know how weak he really was.
Moreover, the reason why he appears here now is not because Hiruzen Sarutobi is taking his vacation, but...
Instead, Kakashi Hatake was asked to be on guard here that Sōkyū Hatake would come back at any time, and an order was issued. Once traces of Sōkyū Hatake were discovered, they must be reported immediately.
Family affection and loyalty.
This made Kakashi Hatake feel extremely tormented.
Yes, this ordeal made Kakashi Hatake almost collapse.
"Brother Kakashi..." Seeing Kakashi Hatake's pain, Mitaraishi Anko said he wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know how to start.
They don't have much contact with Kakashi Hatake on weekdays, but unlike Sōkyū Hatake, he seems to have closed his heart since the accident between Rin Nohara and Obito Uchiha.
"I'm a little disappointed to see you in such pain, Kakashi... brother." At this moment, a relaxed laughter appeared, instantly becoming the focus of everyone.
"Sōkū!"
"Sōkū-kun!"
Mitaraishi Anko and Ayame appeared quickly and saw Sōkyū Hatake again, with an abnormal flush on their faces.
"Long time no see, Anko, Ayame." Sōkyū Hatake said with a smile, and then walked to Mitaraishi Anko and Ayame.
Mitaraishi Anko and Ayame quickly reached out and grabbed Sōkyū Hatake's left and right hands, as if they were afraid that Sōkyū Hatake would disappear again in the next second.
"Sōkyū Hatake." Seeing Sōkyū Hatake, Kakashi Hatake slowly stood up. Due to the tears just now, Kakashi Hatake's eyes were red.
"I've told you a long time ago that the road I'm taking is a very difficult one, one that you can't understand." Sōkyū Hatake looked at his brother, and as expected he thought the same thing as Sōkyū Hatake.
Kakashi Hatake is a very troubled person, and... he will most likely have difficulty understanding what he is doing.
"Is this what you have been carrying?" Kakashi Hatake looked at his younger brother. Once upon a time, Sōkyū Hatake was the size of a small beanbag, but now looking at Sōkyū Hatake, he is taller than himself, and...
More sunshine than myself.
Perhaps... the path Sōkyū Hatake chose himself is the most suitable for him, right?
"Yes and no, but there is one thing I am quite sure of," Sōkyū Hatake looked at Kakashi Hatake.
"What happened?"
"That is, you are a person who cannot bear this matter. Kakashi. You live in a world of self-denial and self-comfort. Therefore, these things are not suitable for you to do. Do you remember what I said?" Sōkyū Hatake looked at Kakashi Hatake in a funny way.
"What happened?"
"I can do the dark things. You only need to be responsible for making Hatake Clan's glory appear again. I remember that according to our Hatake Clan family tree, we Hatake Clan had nearly a hundred people at our most glorious time. I leave this matter to you."
Sōkyū Hatake said with a smirk, he had already said this before.
"Nearly a hundred people..." Kakashi Hatake suddenly felt a chill. He originally thought that Sōkyū Hatake was talking about strength, but he didn't expect that Sōkyū Hatake was talking about heirs???
Is this reasonable?
"By the way, I've already appeared here, aren't you going to send a signal to Hiruzen Sarutobi?" Sōkyū Hatake found a seat and sat down, while Mitaraishi Anko and Ayame stood on both sides of him.
"I have thought about it, but... you are my brother, I can't do this." Kakashi Hatake said a little decadently. This matter is a particularly difficult thing for Kakashi Hatake.
"You are still a little naive, Kakashi. You don't really think that with Hiruzen Sarutobi's character, you will only be stalked in this place, right?" Sōkyū Hatake looked around, and he had already sensed a lot of auras.
