The two of them were sitting together in the living room of the Hatake residence. At this time, the three members of Team 7 plus the extra-staff member, Kaorin, were sitting on the tatami around a low table. "Very good, now everyone is here. Now I announce: the first internal meeting of all members of Team 7 officially begins!" Sakura had just finished her very formal opening remarks and waited for a while. But she did not wait for the expected applause, so she looked at the other four people attending the meeting in confusion: Kakashi was carefully observing Jiraiya's new work, immersed in the world of the superior. Naruto, who was usually full of energy, was not in a good mood because of the death of the third generation. He sat cross-legged and looked absent-minded. Karin, who hadn't been seen for a long time, was observing Sasuke's profile with an intoxicated look on her face, and she didn't care what Sakura said at all. Sasuke was in a daze with a look of loss on his face. Sakura estimated that the death of the third generation made Sasuke lose one target for revenge, so he fell into confusion.
Although it was quite embarrassing that no one applauded, Sakura still cleared her throat and forced the meeting to continue: "Ahem, I know that the death of the third generation made you feel a lot, but even if the sky falls, don't you still have to live? You have to stand up! Let's proceed to the first item of the meeting: Solve Karin's problem." Sakura's words had a certain effect, and the other four members also shifted their attention to Sakura. Especially Kakashi, after hearing that Karin's problem had to be solved, he immediately looked at Sakura intently. Kakashi has been really uncomfortable for more than a month. "Me? Sakura... Actually, I feel pretty good now..." Karin said weakly. She really felt that her life was good now. Although her range of activities was limited to Kakashi's house, she no longer had to worry about being used as a strategic reserve. It was much better than life in the Grass Ninja Village. "Are you going to stay at Kakashi's house for the rest of your life? If that's the case, you might as well just marry Kakashi..." Sakura complained, holding her forehead, but Kakashi hit her head lightly. "It hurts" Sakura pretended to be in pain. "Don't joke about the teacher! However, Sakura, what you said does make sense. It's not a big deal for Karin to stay at my house all the time.
After all, you also agreed to Karin's joining, and she should also perform tasks like a ninja..." Before Kakashi finished speaking, Naruto recovered his spirit and interrupted Kakashi's speech: "Yeah, Sakura, why do you let Karin hide all the time? It's obvious that Karin's perception ability is very strong!" "Idiot, Karin is a member of the Uzumaki clan. If the upper echelons know about it, there is a risk of being captured." Sasuke also completely came out of the low pressure and said something to Naruto. For inexplicable reasons, even if Sasuke was in a low mood, he would not miss the opportunity to mock Naruto. "Asshole Sasuke, no matter who wants to take Karin away, I will rescue her. Even if I can't, just tell the third generation..." When Naruto mentioned the third generation, he was stunned for a moment, and stopped talking halfway, and started to be emo for Sarutobi Hiruzen again. "What an idiot, the one who might take Karin away is Sarutobi Hiruzen! Otherwise, why do you think Sakura discussed the issue of Karin after the third generation died?" Sasuke sneered. It must be said that Sasuke is really smart, and he understood the truth of the matter with a little reasoning. "Damn it, I won't let you say that about the third generation!" Hearing that Sasuke dared to make malicious speculations about the third generation, Naruto stood up immediately, grabbed Sasuke's collar, pulled him up from the ground, and was about to take action. "Naruto, calm down!" Seeing that Naruto was about to lose control, Kakashi immediately stopped him and separated Naruto and Sasuke. "Sasuke, you too! You should know that there are some things that cannot be said." After pushing Naruto to sit down again, Kakashi also sternly reprimanded Sasuke. "Sasuke, apologize to the Third Generation now! The Third Generation grandfather would never do such a thing, Don't you think so, Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto stared at Kakashi, eager to get his approval. But Kakashi remained silent, because he didn't want to Deceiving Naruto. Seeing Kakashi ignoring him, Naruto looked to Sakura for help.
But Sakura did not directly answer his question: "Let's talk about the Sandaime later. Let's talk about Karin first." "Sakura..." Naruto couldn't believe that not only Sasuke, but even Sakura and Kakashi didn't trust the Sandaime. "Karin, you have excellent perception and medical ninjutsu. Before the Fifth Hokage takes office, you should temporarily go to Konoha Hospital for internship." Sakura ignored Naruto and continued to talk about her arrangements for Karin. "Teacher Kakashi, with your connections, it shouldn't be difficult to arrange for her to go to the hospital?" "If it's a hospital, I will try to arrange an identity for her as an orphan of a Konoha ninja. It won't be a problem to let Karin stay for a year or two..." "It won't take that long. Don't worry, teacher, I estimate that the fifth generation will be Tsunade. She will protect Karin." Sakura said firmly. "Indeed, although Jiraiya, who is also a Sannin, is in Konoha at this time. But with his personality, he really doesn't want to be Hokage." Kakashi confirmed Sakura's statement. Sakura felt that Kakashi was only talking about one aspect, and Jiraiya was indeed not interested in this; but Sakura felt that another reason why Jiraiya refused to be Hokage was that he had seen the consequences of a civilian ninja with a weak foundation coming to power: The power was completely hollowed out by the emperor, and even his own guards could only find the same civilian ninjas. Jiraiya was not good at clerical work. Whether for Konoha or for himself, he would not accept the position of Hokage. "However, Karin. In order not to expose your identity as a member of the Uzumaki clan, you still need to deal with your hair." Sakura looked at Karin's bright red hair and took out a bottle from the ninja tool bag on her waist. There seemed to be a black and viscous liquid flowing in it. "This is the hair dye I mixed. Just apply it on your hair once a week." "Thank... Thank you." Karin took the bottle from Sakura. "Now let's proceed to the second item of the meeting: the question about Naruto's life experience." Sakura said the second question that needed to be discussed and solved. Naruto, who was still sulking, suddenly became energetic when he heard Sakura's words.
Sasuke's expression also became serious; although he had heard Sakura talk about Naruto's life experience a long time ago, he also had many doubts about Naruto's experience. Kakashi looked at Sakura in shock. "Sakura... Well, now is indeed a perfect time." Finally, Kakashi had no choice but to compromise. "Naruto, your father is the late Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze, and your mother is Kushina Uzumaki, the princess of the Uzumaki clan." Sakura did not beat around the bush and told Naruto the truth directly. "Awesome!" Karin sighed. She did not know what Naruto had experienced, but was simply happy for Naruto. After all, the descendants of the Hokage would not have a low status in Konoha. But just as Karin was about to congratulate Naruto, he saw that the expression on Naruto's face was more of shock and confusion, and there was no excitement at all. "Little... Sakura, what you said, is it true? My... father is... the Fourth Hokage? How is it possible?" Naruto asked Sakura in disbelief, and his voice trembled. "This is true. The Fourth Hokage and Sister Kushina are also my master and mistress." Kakashi also sighed and confirmed what Sakura said. Kakashi's words made Naruto feel like being struck by lightning. He subconsciously looked at Sasuke, but found that Sasuke just nodded to him, obviously not surprised at all. "Ahahahaha...... How could my father be the Hokage? I won't be fooled. Kakashi teacher, Sakura and Sasuke, your acting skills are really bad! I won't be fooled by you!" Naruto laughed calmly, escaping from reality. Now he just hopes that all this is a traditional prank of his companions. "Naruto, a real warrior, dare to face the bleak life and the blood. Although reality is cruel, you can't keep escaping." Sakura's words shattered Naruto's last fantasy.
