Naruto Under the Bamboo Forest

Chapter 103: Hands that Can’t Be Washed Clean, Eyes that Can’t Be Closed

The next morning, Liu Yu and Kakashi met up with the client of this mission and started to head to the mission destination.

Because there were ordinary people in the team, Liu Yu and Kakashi could not rush to the destination.

The bandits to be defeated in this mission came here shortly after the end of the Third Ninja World War. Taking advantage of the chaotic period just after the war, they carried out various robberies on several nearby villages. In other words, this commission was actually jointly issued by several villages.

The client who came to Konoha was a middle-aged uncle with ordinary clothes and appearance, named Mu Yan Santai, who was the son of the village chief of the village that issued the commission.

However, Liu Yu did not pay too much attention to the middle-aged uncle along the way. Her attention was always focused on Kakashi.

And Kakashi also maintained a cold attitude as he had seen yesterday. Even if he found that Liu Yu was looking at him, he did not express anything, as if Liu Yu did not exist.

"Miss Liu Yu, is there something wrong with this guy?"

Maybe Kakashi escaped too coldly. Along the way, Mu Yan Santai always unconsciously stayed away from Kakashi. Finally, Mu Yan Santai couldn't stand Kakashi's cold look anymore, so he came to Liu Yu and whispered. Compared to the cold Kakashi, Mu Yan Santai still liked Liu Yu, the lively little girl.

Kakashi's senses were very sharp, and although Mu Yan Santai had lowered his voice to a very low level, Kakashi on the side still heard it. However, Kakashi didn't care much about Mu Yan Santai's evaluation, and still had his dead fish face, without any ripples, maybe he was used to it.

"He's fine, he's just in a bad mood these two days!"

Liu Yu naturally noticed all this, and waved to Mu Yan Santai with a little embarrassment.

The moon rose slowly, and the night began to invade the earth. Liu Yu and his party stopped temporarily by a stream, preparing to rest here for a night and continue their journey tomorrow.

Beside the campfire, the three of them sat around and prepared dinner.

"Mmm----delicious, really delicious, I have never eaten such delicious grilled fish in my life! Brother, your cooking skills are really great!"

Mu Yan Sandai took a big bite of the fish in his hand, and as soon as he took a bite, he kept praising it vaguely.

Since the campsite of several people was next to the stream, tonight's dinner was "fish" without exception. These fish were caught by Liu Yu using the grass escape to summon water plants at the bottom of the stream, and the work of grilling them fell to Kakashi.

Hearing Mu Yan Santai's praise, Kakashi remained indifferent, just picked up a grilled fish and ate it by himself.

"Hehe-----"

Seeing Kakashi ignoring him so much, Mu Yan Santai scratched the back of his head awkwardly. Hearing Mu Yan Santai's evaluation, Liu Yu couldn't help but pick up a grilled fish and gently put it to his mouth.

Taste it carefully, the chewy fish meat, with that sour and sweet taste, seems to have blended all the tastes in the world, very wonderful. Even Liu Yu, who has never liked eating fish, couldn't help but praise it "delicious!"

In addition to being an excellent ninja, Kakashi is also an extremely good cook.

When it came to the night duty, Kakashi and Liu Yu had a little dispute. Kakashi took the initiative to ask to be on duty tonight, but Liu Yu disagreed with Kakashi's request to take the initiative to be on duty.

If the partner of this mission was not Kakashi, if someone else asked to be on duty tonight, maybe Liu Yu would agree. But the purpose of Liu Yu's mission this time is not to clear out the bandits, so Liu Yu does not intend to give in to Kakashi on the issue of tonight's duty.

"I am a hidden ninja, and the role of night duty is much greater than yours, so you should have a good rest tonight! Besides, I am the captain of this mission, and the team members should listen to the captain."

Looking at Kakashi with a cold face, Liu Yu said helplessly. Under the special arrangement of Minato Namikaze, Liu Yu became the captain of this mission.

This was the first time that Liu Yu led a team to perform a mission alone, and it was also the first time that Liu Yu led a team to perform a mission as a captain, and his team member was a jonin.

Liu Yu had said so much, and Kakashi could not refute it, and finally walked towards his sleeping bag indifferently. Watching Kakashi walk towards his sleeping bag, Liu Yu frowned slightly, and Kakashi was too cold now.

Finally, Liu Yu sighed helplessly, jumped on a tree, closed his eyes and sensed everything around him.

The dark clouds slowly covered the moon, and the originally silver-transparent earth became dim.

Kakashi, who was lying on his side in the sleeping bag, turned over unconsciously, frowned slightly, and a few drops of sweat appeared on his forehead, and at the same time he unconsciously uttered a few painful murmurs.

"Ka---Ka----Xi---"

Lin's appearance with blood on the corner of her mouth appeared in Kakashi's mind again.

"Kakashi promised me that you would protect Rin!"

Along with the sight of Rin, Obito's last words echoed in Kakashi's mind again.

Kakashi struggled and twisted his body in the sleeping bag more and more, and sweat on his forehead became more and more, while he kept muttering "no".

...

"Hoo-hoo-----"

After a long time, Kakashi woke up from the sleeping bag. Kakashi woke up and found that his back was soaked with sweat without knowing when.

Kakashi wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Liu Yu. Liu Yu, who was sitting on the tree, had his eyes slightly closed, and seemed to be asleep. Looking at Liu Yu who seemed to be asleep, Kakashi did not care about the problem of him sleeping on night duty, but was relieved.

Looking at Mu Yan Santai who was sleeping soundly and snoring beside him, Kakashi gently got up and left the sleeping bag, and walked towards the stream not far away.

On the other side, when Kakashi just left his sleeping bag, Liu Yu, who was originally thought to be asleep, opened his eyes and looked at Kakashi who was walking towards the stream.

"It can't be washed off, it can't be washed off, why can't it be washed off"

Kakashi, who came to the stream, kept rubbing his hands. Although there was nothing on his hands, Kakashi still rubbed them hard, trying to wash off the non-existent blood.

Although the stream water was extremely clear, it looked extremely bloody in Kakashi's eyes. Although the stream water was very cool, Kakashi felt the warmth of blood.

"Ah----"

Kakashi painfully pulled up the forehead protector, revealing the scarlet Sharingan hidden under the forehead protector.

Looking at his own reflection in the water, looking at the Sharingan that could not be turned off, this boy who rarely cried could no longer stop the tears from rolling in his eyes.
