After Kakashi's condition improved, he was forced to leave the hospital and return home to recuperate.
At this moment, Kai, Asuma, Kurenai Yuhi came to inspect the sample.
Asuma: " Kakashi, is this Tsukuyomi really that powerful?"
Kurenai Yuhi: "I've heard of the Genjutsu Tsukuyomi before, it's just a pity I didn't get to encounter it this time."
Kakashi: " Tsukuyomi could drag my mind into the Tsukuyomi Space, where I suffered torture for three whole days. I originally thought my Sharingan could withstand it, but I didn't expect..."
Kai: "There's nothing I can do, what can I do? He's Itachi."
Asuma: "The tragedy of the Uchiha Clan's annihilation is still fresh in my mind. What kind of person could do such a thing?"
Kai: "I saw Hongshi with you back then, even he couldn't resist?"
Kakashi: "While Hongshi is very strong in Ninjutsu, he has absolutely no resistance to Genjutsu."
Kurenai Yuhi: "Oh! That's the Hongshi who helped the Lord Third defeat Orochimaru, right?"
Kai: "That's right, Rock Lee also speaks highly of the power of the Hongshi."
Kakashi: "That brat Hongshi, although he's a bit dim-witted—no, although he really is dim-witted—is incredibly powerful in Ninjutsu."
Asuma: "Everyone has a weakness. We've encountered many ninjas like that before. What is Itachi's purpose in coming to Konoha?"
Kakashi: "It sounds like they're looking for Naruto, but judging from their expressions, they probably haven't found him yet. And they're accompanied by the S-rank wanted criminal Kisame Hoshigaki."
Kai: "Emm, this Fugu Hoshigaki has an extremely robust physique. After eating the Youth Duet' that Li and I had after opening the Gate of View, it looks like it wasn't injured at all."
Kakashi: "It's Kisame Hoshigaki..."
Kai: "That's right, I was talking about Persimmon Fugu."
Asuma sighed, "It's Kisame Hoshigaki. The more you describe him, the more inaccurate he seems."
Kai: "Oh! It's Kihan Hoshigaki."
Kakashi: "(°ー°)..."
Asuma was silent for a moment. " Orochimaru just attacked Konoha. Itachi arrived right afterward. It can't be such a coincidence, can it?"
Kakashi thought for a moment, "They're wearing the same clothes, so they must have joined some organization. If so, that's terrifying. What kind of organization could possibly keep both of them?"
Kurenai Yuhi: "You just said they were looking for Naruto? Didn't he leave the village with Jiraiya?"
Kai: "Shh! Someone's coming."
"Click." The door to the room opened, Sasuke walked in.
"Hey, Kakashi, what's wrong with you? Lying in bed, weren't you supposed to be training?" Sasuke saw Asuma and the other two as soon as he entered the room. "And what are the Jonin doing here? Is anyone looking for Naruto?"
Kai: " Kakashi's fine, just a flare-up of his hemorrhoids... nothing else."
Just then, Gekko Hayate slowly walked in, leaning on his cane. " Kakashi, I heard Itachi went back to the village and even injured you?"
Kakashi: "... No, I just have a flare-up of hemorrhoids..."
Kai: "Shut up!"
Asuma: "Sigh."
Kurenai Yuhi: "Idiot!"
Gekko Hayate: "Huh? Did I say something wrong?"
Sasuke's expression changed immediately upon hearing Itachi's name, his eyes widening. "You mean... that man is back?"
Gekko Hayate then noticed Sasuke: "No, no, no, I meant Kakashi's hemorrhoids are back."
Sasuke yelled at Kakashi, "I'm going to kill that guy!"
After saying that, he rushed out the door.
Kai chased after them, saying, "How could this have happened..."
Kakashi sighed, "Ah, the curse of the Uchiha Clan."
Sasuke, Jiraiya been eating ramen with Naruto and Naruto that morning, said, "Itachi is looking for Naruto. Looks like he's going to leave the village with that lecherous old man. I have to catch up with them. If Naruto gets found, he'll definitely be dead."
As he muttered to himself, Sasuke arrived at Ichiraku Ramen Ichiraku Ramen, but Naruto was nowhere to be seen. " Teuchi! Where's Naruto?!"
Teuchi was startled by the shout, "Hey kid, watch your mouth! You scared the hell out of me!"
Sasuke: "He should have been here a moment ago, where did he go?"
Ichiraku Sasuke's anxious look, Ichiraku seemed to know that he had something urgent to attend to. " Naruto, he and Jiraiya finished eating ramen and went out, saying they were going to somewhere outside the village... emm, it seems to be a small post station town that isn't too far away."
Sasuke: " Jiraiya?"
Teuchi: "That's right, it's Jiraiya, one of the legendary Sannin. Jiraiya looks like a middle-aged man with a full head of white hair. Hmm, he also has a really nice poem. Let me recite it for you: 'A crane flies in the sky, Myoboku true sage in the rain; a carefree immortal in the forest, a mighty tiger in the mountains; a free spirit in the deep sea, a dragon swimming in the water, Jiraiya.' Tsk tsk tsk, it sounds just like the one I wrote myself."
After Sasuke learned where Naruto was, he stopped listening to Teuchi's nagging and ran out as fast as he could.
Teuchi looked at the empty shop. "Seriously, I thought you'd eat a bowl of ramen. What an rude brat! You'll never eat my soulful ramen again! Just wait until you get a beating!"
Naruto and Jiraiya walked slowly forward, looking at the unfamiliar scenery. Naruto was very excited. " Pervy Sage, are you going to teach me some powerful Ninjutsu? Like Chidori!"
Jiraiya was somewhat speechless. " Pervy Sage, don't you know my true identity?"
Naruto: "Aren't you just a ninja who likes to spy?"
Jiraiya: "Hahaha, I am the crane soaring through the clouds, the immortal of the rain- Myoboku; the carefree immortal of the forest, the mighty tiger of the mountains; the free spirit of the deep sea, the dragon swimming beneath Jiraiya water. I am Lord Jiraiya, the legendary leader of the Sannin ninjas!"
Naruto: "(°ー°) Oh, I understand."
Naruto continued walking forward.
Jiraiya: "What kind of attitude is that?!"
Naruto: "Then let me ask you, a ninja as strong as you brought me out for training... is it because... I'm exceptionally smart!"
Jiraiya: "Absolutely not."
Naruto: "You knew it! My talent is definitely far superior to Sasuke's!"
Jiraiya: "No, no, no, I said absolutely not."
Naruto: "... Is it really meaningful for us to keep hurting each other like this?"
Jiraiya: "To be honest, I used to be the Fourth Hokage's teacher, and I think you and he look quite alike, so that's the reason."
Naruto: "Sog-ga, the Fourth Hokage?"
Jiraiya thought Naruto would be disappointed.
Unexpectedly, Naruto became excited again. " The Fourth Hokage! That's a Kage Level figure! So I have such amazing talent! Yes, yes, that must be it, Pervy Sage, you're definitely going to teach me some powerful Ninjutsu."
Having said that, he ran forward, extremely pleased with himself.
Jiraiya: "Hmm, Minato and Kushina are people with higher emotional intelligence and IQ than Itachi, how could they have such a stupid son?"
