Kurenai Yuhi was stunned.
But then she thought of herself, her team assignment, and Asuma Sarutobi who had just taken the Ino–Shika–Chō.
Kurenai Yuhi's eyes widened.
Yūgao Uzuki, her good friend.
A former Anbu Ninja.
About five years ago, she left the Anbu and settled down on a certain street in Konoha.
If the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki lived upstairs from her.
Could it be considered that she was there to monitor the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki...?
Huh?
Little Minato-sensei... it seems reasonable... but also very unreasonable!
Kurenai Yuhi was in a state of disarray.
She seemed to have discovered something incredible.
No wonder her good friend had kept it so deeply and tightly hidden.
She wouldn't even let Kurenai and Anko know, not even the name.
'Oh, Yūgao, you girl, I didn't expect you to be such a person!'
'Damn it!'
Uzumaki Kushina: "Good friends should always be together, right~"
Minato Namikaze: Together~
Kurenai Yuhi: "..."
Impossible.
How could she be as unmotivated as Yūgao?
Giving herself away for free?
No way!
Hmm... Yūgao seems to be because of swordsmanship.
Black-Framed Naruto's mental energy... why does it feel stronger than mine?
Phooey, phooey, phooey~
What am I thinking?
That's not the point right now.
Instead... Kurenai Yuhi took a deep breath.
"It seems I've always been in a political vortex."
Kurenai Yuhi knew that her counterpart in the black frame world had already noticed.
She gave a bitter smile.
She didn't expect that in the end, it was only thanks to the black frame world that she became aware of her own situation.
Anko Mitarashi angrily badmouthed the Old Monkey and Asuma.
Yūgao Uzuki fell silent.
It's over, the secret has been discovered after all.
The black-framed large screen continued.
Everyone followed their Jōnin Instructor and left.
At this moment, only Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke were left in the classroom.
Sakura Haruno: "As I thought, in this world and the black frame world, Kakashi-sensei is always like this."
Uchiha Sasuke: "Hmph!"
Uchiha Sasuke: "When Naruto tells him what kind of person the owner of his left eye is, let's see if he'll still be like this."
Kurotsuchi: "Huh?"
Kurotsuchi: "Tell that beast Kakashi about Uchiha Obito?"
Kurotsuchi: "That's terrible... If our identities were swapped, I don't think I could handle that kind of shock."
Kurotsuchi's statement was met with agreement from many.
Senju Tobirama: "Kakashi's endurance is very strong."
Senju Tobirama: "Of course, if he were an Uchiha... I estimate another Mangekyo Sharingan would appear in the Uchiha clan."
Senju Hashirama: Tobirama, don't forget, Kakashi has one most important partner.
Might Guy: "Of course, that's me, his eternal rival~!"
Rock Lee: "Teacher Guy~!"
Might Guy: "Hahaha, Lee~!"
Kakashi: "..."
Mei Terumī: "A normal person really couldn't endure it."
Mei Terumī: "He lost his father in childhood, indirectly caused the death of a comrade in his youth, and in the same year, the comrade he was asked to protect by his former partner, who was still human at the time, also died, and at his own hands."
Mei Terumī: "Subsequently, the Fourth Hokage and his wife, along with his friend Might Guy, pulled him out of the abyss."
Mei Terumī: "However, good times don't last; soon, the Fourth Hokage and his wife died during the Nine-Tails Rampage."
Mei Terumī: "If Kakashi were to know that the culprit who killed the Fourth Hokage and his wife was his former comrade, I wonder what he would think."
Sakura Haruno: "Kakashi-sensei, that fool, would definitely blame himself even more."
Ino Yamanaka: "He'd probably take all the responsibility upon himself, wouldn't he?"
Tenten: "Don't forget, there's also the hero who once protected Konoha but was forced to his death—Konohas White Fang, Kakashi-sensei's father, Sakumo Hatake."
Temari: "It seems Black-framed Naruto-kun mentioned that Kakashi was the final straw that broke his father."
Kankuro: "It appears that Konohas White Fang was actually prepared to die, but he couldn't bear to leave his child, and then, his own child..."
Seeing that the chat room was about to continue.
Might Guy quickly spoke: "Cough cough, alright, everyone stop talking, Kakashi seems a bit dead."
Uchiha Izuna: Hahaha~
Uchiha Izuna: Very good, Kakashi Hatake, right?
Uchiha Izuna: I acknowledge you!
Uchiha Izuna: You are the only Ninja who, after having our clan's eyes transplanted, can still earn my recognition.
Ino Yamanaka: "Kakashi-sensei is more qualified to possess the Sharingan than that beast Uchiha Obito!"
Uchiha Izuna: Good girl, well said, right, Big Brother?
Uchiha Madara: "..."
Uchiha Madara: Yes.
Uchiha Obito: "You old mother!" (Broken defense, voice cracked)
Uchiha Obito: "Just watch if I revive or not!"
BEEP—
Uchiha Obito was muted for two and a half hours.
Inside the Kannabi Bridge underground base.
Looking at the exasperated Uchiha Obito.
Black Zetsu closed his eyes in despair.
How did I end up with this useless piece of trash?
There was only one choice back then.
Once the Uchiha's only dead last.
Always the Uchiha's only dead last!
The black-framed large screen continued.
"Tsk~!"
Sasuke's face was cold.
His eyes were filled with impatience.
He took a deep breath, then slowly closed his eyes.
He just sat there, cold.
Naruto also closed his eyes to rest, even directly entering the Sealing Space to tease the Great Fox.
Sakura had somehow teleported to where Ino had been sitting earlier.
She sat obediently beside Naruto, secretly inching closer, and when Naruto didn't object, she couldn't stop smiling.
In comparison, Sakura didn't seem to have much objection to the Jōnin Instructor's tardiness.
She even hoped that the Jōnin Instructor wouldn't come at all today.
Then she could spend the whole day alone with Naruto.
The sun was high in the sky.
Finally, Team 7's Jōnin Instructor appeared.
Sakura Haruno: "..."
What a pity, there was no Naruto prank in the black frame world, so that habitually late teacher couldn't be retaliated against!
At this moment, Naruto sat in the arena.
Very quiet.
If it were before, he might have grumbled about why his black frame world self didn't set traps to trick Kakashi-sensei.
However, recalling it.
Naruto still smiled.
Because of the pranks, Kakashi had a very poor first impression of them.
Of course, they also had a very poor first impression of Kakashi.
After waiting for about one shichen (two hours).
Finally.
The classroom door of Class A-1 was pulled open.
Creak—
Naruto and Sasuke opened their eyes simultaneously.
The coldness in Sasuke's eyes was undisguised.
'Such a Jōnin Instructor is most likely incompetent; I should plan for my future.'
Naruto, on the other hand, noticed the wisp of white hair that entered the classroom first.
'That's right, Great Fox, it's Kakashi Hatake.'
"Oh."
The Great Fox lay on its side, scratched its butt, rolled over, and continued reading its storybook.
Recently, the Great Fox had been strange, always messing with odd things; in the memories transmitted by the Shadow Clone, the Great Fox seemed to be drawing something, shaking its head after finishing, all very mysterious.
He withdrew his thoughts and looked towards the classroom door.
A white-haired uncle, wearing a mask and with his left eye covered by a forehead protector, appeared.
He was holding a small 'Little Uncle' book in his hand.
"Sorry."
"I got lost on the road of life."
