Chapter 201 The Dark Guard's Right to Watch the Show
Kakashi Hatake arrived at the training ground on time as usual, but to his surprise, he saw Haruko and Obito Uchiha, who were unusually punctual. They were even squatting in the bushes with Rin Nohara, spying on him.
Kakashi Hatake landed down from the tree beside them. "What are you doing?"
"Shh!" Haruko quickly silenced him and beckoned him to squat down.
Despite not understanding why, Kakashi Hatake obediently squatted down next to Rin Nohara.
Rin Nohara whispered to him, "Kakashi, look, Minato-sensei is chatting with a pretty lady!"
Following the direction she pointed, Kakashi Hatake did indeed see a girl with slightly curly black short hair standing next to Minato Namikaze. She was wearing a dark bodysuit, a gray vest armor, and a purple and red cat mask.
They're from the Dark Division...
Kakashi Hatake became serious. Why would the Anbu come looking for Minato-sensei?
But clearly his three teammates didn't share his sense of vigilance; instead, they started gossiping.
"Minato-sensei is too much! He's already with Kushina, yet he's still flirting with other girls!" Haruko said indignantly, but her tone couldn't hide her excitement at having just heard such a juicy juicy story.
Obito Uchiha also watched intently, "After all, that violent woman's personality isn't very good, and it would be difficult for Minato-sensei to stick to his original intentions."
Rin Nohara offered a different perspective: "It might not necessarily be a matter of feelings; maybe he just came to see Minato-sensei about something."
"What it is doesn't matter, what matters is that we're on the same side as Kushina!" Haruko's eyes blazed with fury. "I'm going to tell Kushina to teach Minato, who's been so unchaste, a lesson!"
"Haruko doesn't even call me 'teacher' anymore..." Nohara Rin shook her head with amusement.
Obito Uchiha tugged at Haruko's sleeve. "She's leaving!"
Haruko suddenly stood up, and before Obito Uchiha could react, she pulled him along and rushed out.
"Wait a minute!"
Watching their figures disappear into the distance, Kakashi Hatake gave a deadpan look. "Those two idiots."
"Kakashi, why don't we go out too?" Nohara Rin smiled shyly at him, mainly worried about missing any exciting scenes, and quickly followed.
Kakashi Hatake: ...
Haruko wanted to call out to the female ANBU member so she could gather more information, but when she saw them rushing over, the ANBU member vanished from the spot.
"Where is he?" Haruko shook Obito Uchiha beside her in disbelief.
"How would I know?" Obito Uchiha quickly broke free, stopping unsteadily in place.
Minato Namikaze was taken aback when he saw them charging towards him so confidently and asked, somewhat bewildered, "What's going on with you...?"
Haruko, hands on her hips, glared at Minato Namikaze, "Who is that girl?"
"It's a friend I know. He just came to talk to me about something. What's wrong?" Minato Namikaze patiently explained.
“Friends…” Haruko drawled, clearly not believing it. She put her arm around Obito Uchiha. “Obito, he said he’s a friend.”
Obito Uchiha immediately understood what she meant and whispered loudly to her, "The word 'friend' is very broad!"
"Exactly, exactly. Maybe they're friends with feelings involved." Haruko kept glancing at Minato Namikaze, clearly pointing him out.
Seeing the two of them chatting and laughing, Minato Namikaze chuckled, stepped forward, grabbed their heads and gave them a good ruffled ruffle. "Honestly, you two are never serious during training, but you're full of enthusiasm for these things."
Standing next to her, Nohara Rin secretly chimed in, "But it's really intriguing. I've never heard of Minato-sensei having a female friend like that before."
Although their purposes differed, Kakashi Hatake nodded in agreement.
Unexpectedly, all four students were so curious. Minato Namikaze sighed and explained to them, "Her identity is somewhat special, so I can't introduce her to you for the time being. If there's an opportunity in the future, I'll definitely ask her if she can get to know you."
After hearing what Minato Namikaze said, they felt embarrassed to ask any further questions.
Kakashi Hatake pondered for a moment, "An ANBU member with a special identity, huh...?"
Urged on by Minato Namikaze to go to training, Haruko whispered to Rin Nohara, "Minato-sensei definitely has a secret he's hiding!"
"But didn't the teacher say it was because that older sister had a special status?"
That's why it's something you can't tell anyone!
Nohara Rin and Haruko exchanged glances, finally understanding that she didn't really think Minato Namikaze and that girl had anything going on, but simply wanted to find out who that girl was.
After carefully considering the possibilities, Nohara Rin advised her, "Forget it, Haruko. If she's gone, we don't even know where to start looking."
"Hmph." Haruko chuckled softly, then pointed to Minato Namikaze in the distance, her expression puzzled. "Don't we have ready-made bait?"
Nohara Rin's eyes widened. "You mean..."
...
"Were you training hard today too?" Kushina asked with a smile, carrying her lunchbox as she walked towards them.
Nohara Rin and Haruko exchanged a glance, and immediately surrounded Kushina after she put down the basket, escorting her away from Namikaze Minato.
"What's wrong with you two?" Kushina asked, looking surprised as they pulled her away.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Obito and Hatake Kakashi, who were entrusted with an important task by Haruko, were responsible for keeping Minato Namikaze occupied by his wife's longing. Under the sly smile of Uchiha Obito and the silent expression of Hatake Kakashi, Minato Namikaze sighed.
It seems there's no escaping this calamity...
Haruko, after whispering and adding fuel to the fire with Kushina for a while, looked with satisfaction at Kushina's spiky hair and pulled the terrified Nohara Rin away from the battlefield.
Kushina's footsteps pounded the ground as she headed towards Minato Namikaze, "Minato..."
Seeing that Obito Uchiha and Kakashi Hatake quickly hid to the side, Minato Namikaze tried to explain in a flustered manner, "No, no, no... Kushina isn't what you think!"
The four people, who were once again crouching in the bushes watching the show from afar, couldn't help but admire Kushina's fierce attacks and Minato's perfect dodges.
"Kushina-neechan is really amazing!" Nohara Rin watched her movements with sparkling eyes.
Obito Uchiha recalled the moment he was brutally beaten by Kushina and grumbled unhappily, "She really is a violent woman!"
"Obito, be careful Kushina doesn't overhear you again," Rin Nohara said, amused, stopping him.
Kakashi Hatake watched Minato Namikaze's nimble dodges intently, thinking, "As expected of Minato-sensei."
Haruko patted his shoulder regretfully, "Kakashi, you've learned the wrong thing. In this situation, instead of constantly dodging and making Kushina angrier, it's better to just accept your fate of being beaten from the start."
Meeting her all-knowing eyes, Kakashi Hatake silently asked, "Taking those punches head-on...wouldn't you die?"
Haruko guiltily looked away, and Kakashi Hatake seemed to understand her shameless attitude of "that's none of my business."
"But at least it shows that Minato-sensei really didn't have any romantic entanglement with that ANBU member!" Haruko concluded.
Obito Uchiha asked, puzzled, "Why?"
"Because she saw Minato-sensei get beaten up, that girl either didn't care, or... she was just like us, hiding and watching the drama unfold!"
Hearing Haruko's inexplicable judgment, Obito Uchiha curled his lip, "How could an Anbu member specifically hide to watch the drama unfold? What you're saying is too far-fetched."
"Why is it impossible?" Haruko's eyes widened, seemingly incredulous that he disagreed with her. So she made up her mind and said, "If I ever become a member of the Anbu, I'll hide myself everywhere and gossip!"
Kakashi Hatake was speechless. "If that day ever comes, the Anbu will kick you out immediately."
Nohara Rin raised her hand and asked, "So, the Anbu really can't just watch the drama unfold?"
No, it's possible, as long as it's not discovered.
The ANBU girl, who was correctly predicted by Haruko and was hiding in a nearby tree watching her friend get beaten up by his wife, and then being gossiped about by the kids: ...
Are kids these days so perceptive?
