Kakashi likes small animals very much, and he loves dogs to the core, otherwise the Kakashi in the original trajectory would not always have a dog head when releasing the earth escape technique.
"Who told you to give up the Ninja Dog Clan?"
Hatake Akira knocked Kakashi on the head and said, "The contract for the summoning beasts doesn't stipulate that you can only choose one. As long as you get the consent of the toad and ninja dog clans, it won't be a problem to have two summoning beasts at the same time."
There was a reason why Hatake Akira said this. Sarutobi Hiruzen's future grandson, Konohamaru, had contracts with both the Saruman clan and the Myobokusan toad clan.
"Is this okay?"
Kakashi was still a little unconfident. The summoned beasts in the ninja world were as arrogant as the ninjas themselves, and it was rare for them to work with other summoned beasts under the same master.
"It's half and half." Hatake Akira was not entirely sure. "Generally speaking, as long as you have contracted with the Myoboku Mountain Toad Clan, if you contract with other summoning beasts, the toads should not care."
"Most of the Toad Clan in Myoboku Mountain do not have aggressive personalities. Even if there are some with hot tempers, they are not the Toads in power in Myoboku Mountain."
"The real difficulty is with the ninja dog clan. After all, dogs are very loyal, but also very jealous. It is difficult to convince them."
After an in-depth analysis, Hatake Akira changed the subject, "But don't worry too much. After all, the Ninja Dog Clan is our Hatake family's exclusive summoning beast. The relationship passed down from generation to generation is very deep. I believe they should make an exception this time."
"I hope so..." Kakashi's voice was a little low. He must be in a dilemma at this moment.
"Cheer up!"
Hatake Akira was a little disappointed that Kakashi was being so fussy at this time. "It's settled. Anyway, if you can't handle it, I will ask my father for help."
"Don't trouble father, I will listen to my brother." Kakashi finally followed Hatake Akira's arrangement.
"That's right." Hatake Akira embraced Kakashi affectionately, and the way he put his arm around Kakashi's shoulder was very warm. "Brother, I have never cheated you. The stronger you are, the happier you are."
"Well, it's getting late. Let's hurry up and practice your Shadow Clone Bloodline Limit while we still have some free time."
As he spoke, Hatake Akira supported himself on the eaves with one hand and jumped off the roof in a nimble and graceful manner.
"Okay!" Kakashi did the same, jumped off the roof and followed Akira Hatake into the house.
……
The next morning, at Konoha's No. 8 training ground.
"How was everyone's day yesterday?"
Minato Namikaze stood straight with a gentle smile on his face, and asked the three members of Team 8 in a soft voice.
"Thank you for your concern, Minato-sensei. Kakashi and I are living a fulfilling life." Hatake Akira replied with a smile, but the dark circles under his eyes were quite obvious.
"Me too, I broke through myself again yesterday. My youth yesterday was perfect!"
Might Guy gave a thumbs up and grinned with his two big front teeth shining.
"Since everyone has had a good rest, let's start the mission." Without further delay, Minato Namikaze took out the task list from his arms.
He cleared his throat, "Ahem, this time the Genin's mission is to clean up the garbage in Konoha's river. The time limit is three hours."
After Minato Namikaze finished speaking, Hatake Akira glanced at Kakashi, and they both showed helpless expressions.
When will this Genin mission end?
However, Might Guy, who was standing next to the two of them, looked full of fighting spirit. In his opinion, everything that happened in the world represented the test of youth and was an indispensable part of his pursuit of youth.
"Minato-sensei, what are we waiting for!" Might Guy shouted, "I can't wait any longer. I feel the call of youth!"
"..." Kakashi rolled his eyes and whispered to Hatake Akira, "Brother, I really can't stand Kai like this..."
"Shh, Kai is a very reliable companion. Even though he looks a little weird at ordinary times, you can always trust him."
"Ming! Thank you for your affirmation. You are indeed my unique best friend and rival in my youth!"
Might Guy had very good ears, but he automatically filtered out Kakashi's complaints and instead looked intently at Hatake Akira who was speaking for him.
"Um...well...as long as you're happy." Hatake Akira shrugged, with a hint of helplessness in his words.
"Okay, it's getting late, let's finish the task early so we can train early this afternoon."
Minato Namikaze smiled. He was very satisfied with the role played by Hatake Akira in Team 8. He was also very satisfied with the current atmosphere and division of labor in Team 8.
Akira Hatake is the backbone and regulator of the three members of Team 8. His steady and tolerant personality brings the cohesion of Team 8 to the limit.
Kakashi Hatake, except for being gentle and peaceful towards Akira Hatake, although he often has a cold face towards other people, he is a person with a warm heart.
Coupled with his outstanding strength, Kakashi became the breakthrough player and all-rounder of Team 8.
Although Might Guy is a bit silly, he has a pure heart and can always use the name of youth to inject endless fighting spirit into Team 8.
Not only Hatake Akira and Kakashi, but even their teacher Minato Namikaze was somewhat infected.
The sight of Team 8 made Minato Namikaze even more excited about the future. He was already impatient to see Team 8 show their fangs.
Chapter 76: Minato Namikaze’s concerns.
It doesn’t take three hours to clean up the garbage in the river.
However, during the cleaning process, the unpleasant smell still tortured the three of them.
As for Minato Namikaze, he hid far away, like an overseer in the old society.
The three members of Team 8 trained anxiously. Even though the smell in the river was unpleasant, they put all their efforts into it and completed this Genin mission in less than two hours.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work everyone."
Namikaze Minato clapped his hands and called Hatake Akira and the other two over. "After we dismiss, hurry up and wash off the smell on your body. Meet at the task assignment handover point at the Hokage Building in half an hour."
After saying that, Minato Namikaze let out a long sigh and quickly left the spot.
"Is it so smelly?" Hatake Akira's nose had almost gotten used to the smell and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it at this point.
"I think so... I saw that Minato-sensei was having a hard time holding it in just now." Kakashi raised his arm and sniffed, "Although I couldn't smell it very clearly, you don't need to smell it to know that it definitely stinks..."
"I never thought that Mr. Minato had this side of him." Hatake Akira shook his head, somewhat concerned about Minato Namikaze's disgusted behavior just now.
"In the evening, let's go visit Mr. Minato's house and try the food prepared by Mrs. Kushina."
"This... isn't this bad?" Kakashi was a little scared. He had been there twice with Hatake Akira and naturally had seen Uzumaki Kushina's special cooking skills.
"Hehe, even though we're visiting, we don't necessarily have to eat." Hatake Akira smirked, "When the time comes, we can just find a reason and let Minato-sensei eat it all by himself."
"Hehe, isn't this a little..." Kakashi also laughed happily, "But I like it very much."
"What kind of charades are you guys talking about?"
Hearing the two brothers laughing happily, Might Guy was confused.
It is worth mentioning that Might Guy has not visited Minato Namikaze's house yet. It may be that he has nothing to show for it, or he may not have thought of that aspect.
After all, the world of Naruto is not the society of favoritism in Akira Hatake's previous life, and it is common to have differences in the way people behave.
"Nothing, I just thought of something happier."
Hatake Akira and Kakashi looked at each other again, and then started to chuckle evilly.
……
Half an hour later, Team 8 gathered again under the Hokage Building.
"Let's go. I'll take you to submit the task results and collect the commission for this task and the compensation commission for the last task."
"Teacher, was the last mission level upgraded successfully?" Hatake Akira's eyes lit up. As long as the last mission level was upgraded successfully, it would leave a strong mark on the resumes of all members of Class 8.
"It succeeded, but due to some flaws, the last mission level was only A-level." Namikaze Minato felt a little regretful, but then he was relieved, "Although it is a little imperfect, the commission approved by the Sandaime Hokage is based on an S-level mission."
"That's not bad. We've finally figured out how to balance things."
Hatake Akira made a quiet comment, which earned him a somewhat blaming look from Namikaze Minato.
"By the way, teacher, the mission level has been upgraded and the commission has increased. This is a double blessing. How about we celebrate tonight?"
Hatake Akira quickly changed the subject and brought up his purpose of wanting to take a small "revenge" on Minato Namikaze.
"Of course no problem, how about we go for a picnic?"
Namikaze Minato naturally had no intention of disagreeing, but he was intentionally or unintentionally avoiding the opportunity to taste Uzumaki Kushina's cooking.
"I plan to ask Master Kushina first." Hatake Akira smiled quietly, "The teacher may not be able to make the decision on this matter."
jump.
Namikaze Minato acted quickly and knocked him on the head, "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb. Do you think I don't have any dignity?"
"Ahem..." Hatake Akira coughed to change the subject, pointing to the team in front that was about to end, "It's almost our turn, teacher, let's hand over the tasks and collect the commissions first."
Namikaze Minato smiled helplessly, and Hatake Akira was disrespectful to his elders, which was the normal state of the two when they were together.
I have to say, this experience is great, and the relationship between the two is getting deeper day by day.
After handing over the Genin missions and receiving the corresponding commissions, the wallets of the members of Team 8 became fatter.
The commission for Genin missions is pitifully low, and the bulk of it is still the compensation commission for the previous mission. The commission for S-level missions is still very generous.
But after having the money, if you want to spend it, you still have to wait until the evening. After noon, the eighth class will conduct targeted training.
"Ming, regarding the training related to the Flying Thunder God Technique, just follow my instructions."
At the 13th training ground, Minato Namikaze has already arranged a targeted training plan for Akira Hatake this afternoon.
"Kakashi, I can't teach you swordsmanship, but I have some experience in changing the nature of chakra. I'll tell you about it later."
Turning to look at Kakashi, Namikaze Minato said something, motioning him to wait for him over there.
After receiving the training task arranged by Minato Namikaze, Hatake Akira disappeared and went to train on his own.
"Kai, the most critical part of the Eight Gates Ninjutsu training is physical fitness. I can't help you much, so you should just follow the original training rules."
Namikaze Minato walked up to Might Guy and said, "But today we have added a new combat training. Come to me after you finish your training. I can be your sparring partner and teach you some practical skills."
After arranging the training tasks for the three people, Minato Namikaze waved at Kakashi, motioning him to come over.
"Kakashi, you have mastered the changes in the properties of lightning and water chakra very well, so the only thing left is the changes in the properties of wind chakra."
"Yes, Minato-sensei. The nature of the wind attribute has changed. Although I have made some progress, I feel like I am still a little short of the finishing touch."
"This is already very genius. Don't worry. Changing the nature of wind-attribute chakra is not difficult. You just need to..."
Minato Namikaze can be considered a master in the field of wind-attribute chakra. With his explanation, Kakashi's daily questions were naturally answered.
Although Hatake Sakumo also told Kakashi about the changes in the properties of wind-attribute chakra, one person's wisdom is limited while two people's wisdom is broad. It will definitely be more beneficial for Kakashi to make more comparisons.
"Thank you for your understanding, Minato-sensei."
