Chapter 168：

Kimimaro is also very slender. Standing together, the two of them are fair and tender, like a golden boy.

"Shiro, are you and Kimimaro getting used to being here?"

Shiro and Kimimaro both nodded and started talking to Natsuki.

Kimimaro talks less, and is basically used as a microphone.

The two looked at Natsuki with eyes full of admiration, even though Orochimaru had been teaching them for a while.

But some people occupy a place in my heart earlier, and those who come later cannot always replace them.

Although they are both older than Naruto, Kimimaro has been locked up in prison since he was a child, while Haku was abandoned by his family and wandered.

Instead, they are more like children.

Xiamu also likes these two children very much.

Next, Natsuki asked what the two of them had learned from Orochimaru during this period.

Kimimaro's strength was limited because he couldn't use corpse veins, but it just so happened that he used to be a wild boy.

Orochimaru specially customized a basic training plan to allow Kimimaro to re-solidify his foundation. After being able to use corpse bone veins in the future, his strength will definitely improve by leaps and bounds.

Bai is different. He is more suitable for taking the ninjutsu route. After his body has recovered, Bai is now accumulating chakra and learning ninjutsu.

"Kabuto has told you my plan before."

Seeing the two people nodding, Natsuki continued.

"After a while, you will come to the stage with Orochimaru. At that time, you must assist Orochimaru."

Bai smiled and said: "Natsumu-sama, don't worry."

Kimimaro said: "I am very happy to be needed by Natsuki-sama."

Xia Mu looked at the two of them. These two children were particularly prone to extremes in their thinking.

You need to be enlightened from time to time.

"You guys." Xia Mu touched his head with one hand.

He said softly: "You and Bai are both the people I need."

"But you must also remember to protect yourselves, otherwise you won't be able to help me in the future."

"Uh-huh!"

Shiro and Kimimaro both nodded obediently.

Chapter 208 Give up regeneration

Uchiha clan land.

Natsuki was at the edge of the practice field, looking at the skills of those good prospects.

The tribe came to report: "Kakashi Hatake and Metkai came to ask for a meeting with Tsunade."

Tsunade now works for the Uchiha clan, so if Kakashi wants to find Tsunade, he naturally has to inform Natsuki.

As for Metkai, he most likely accompanied Kakashi.

"Let them in, bring them directly here, Tsunade is in the hospital office."

Professional matters were left to professionals. After inviting Tsunade over, Natsuki directly left all matters in the hospital to Tsunade.

Except for matters involving money, Tsunade can make all other decisions.

After all, Tsunade's luck would be exhausted no matter how much money she gave her.

After getting her first month's salary, Tsunade has been living a very happy life recently, often hanging out in gambling stalls.

Of course, she is also very popular.

Fortunately, Tsunade doesn't have that much time now. In addition to teaching students, she has to eat with Naruto every day.

Relatively speaking, she has less time to go out and gamble. Otherwise, the salary is really not enough for her to waste.

…

Not long after, Kakashi was brought in, and behind him was someone Natsuki hadn't seen for many years.

"Konoha's Blue Beast" Metkai, a social terrorist.

They are all in the same year, even in the same grade, but they are not in the same class.

I've always seen it in school before.

But in fact, they didn't see each other much in these years. Kakashi often visited the memorial monument because of psychological problems.

Although Kai was a weakling when he was a boy, as a taijutsu ninja of the Steel Fist style, as soon as his body develops, he will enter a stage of rapid improvement.

That's exactly what happened to Kai. Everyone would be astonished by how crazy Kai is about his training.

So although he and Kakashi have a good relationship, they don't hang out together every day.

Gai said he had fought Kakashi a hundred times.

And playing against each other hundreds of times in ten years means that there are about ten times every year.

Just once a month. It means Kai is really busy.

Therefore, it is normal for Xiamu not to see Kai for such a long time.

"Natsumu!" Kai waved to Natsuki from a distance, and for those who didn't know, he thought they were familiar with each other.

"I didn't expect you to be the clan leader now! It seems that your youth is blooming very brightly!"

As he spoke, he gave Xia Mu a thumbs up, and a bright light seemed to flash above his bared teeth.

Kakashi covered his forehead. He really didn't know if there was any problem in bringing Kai here. After all, Natsuki was the leader of the Uchiha clan.

Fortunately, Natsuki certainly has no airs and is still a person who likes to be funny sometimes.

He waved his hand and went out and gave a thumbs up!

"This is how youth blooms! Kai, I haven't seen you for so many years, but you are still so passionate."

"That's natural! Youth is full of passion!" Metkai posed, not caring at all about the eyes of the Uchiha tribesmen in the training ground.

A complete social terrorist.

After Xiamu and Kai exchanged two words, Xiamu felt that he couldn't resist anymore.

He was joking and said it in passing.

But Kai has been talking like this for many years and never cares about other people's eyes.

After all, Natsuki is still the leader of the Uchiha clan. If he follows Kai for a few more words, his prestige will be reduced.

Putting aside his funny mood, Xia Mu called a tribesman and asked him to take Metkai for a visit.

"Kakashi, come to Tsunade, I will take you there." After Natsuki put away his funny expression, his expression was calm when talking to Kakashi, and he did not show any inclination.

It made Kakashi feel uneasy.

Because of Danzo's escape from prison, Kabuto from Otogakure Village left all the Uchiha clan members behind.

Although the mission share has been adjusted back by the Third Hokage, the Uchiha clan members do not buy it and no one takes the mission at all.

With so many Uchiha clansmen staying in the clan territory every day and not knowing what they were doing, the third generation was very worried about any accidents.

Uchiha Fugaku was given the position of honorary elder, but two high-level meetings of Konoha have been held, and Uchiha Fugaku has not been there.

The third generation was worried that Natsuki had other ideas.

So every day, a large number of Anbu were watching outside the Uchiha clan.

Regarding the matter of Kakashi's eyes, Tsunade had been asked before and Tsunade agreed.

The third generation took advantage of the situation and asked Kakashi to join the Uchiha clan to see if he could find out some information.

"Kakashi..."

The voice of Natsuki walking in front made Kakashi feel a sudden shock.

"Tsunade has looked up a lot of information in the past few days, and also experimented with a lot of medical equipment, but it's been quite hard."

"I don't know much about medical matters, but this is a difficult problem after all. Even if it doesn't work now, it doesn't mean it won't work in the future. I hope you are mentally prepared."

Natsuki didn't say anything else, just said some words to comfort Kakashi.

Although Kakashi was carrying a mission, he couldn't ask directly now. He just responded to Natsuki: "Don't worry, Natsuki-sama, I know it well."

Not long after, Tsunade's office arrived.

Xia Mu knocked on the door before pushing it open and entering.

Tsunade was writing at her desk without raising her head.

"Tsunade, Kakashi is here to find you."

Only then did Tsunade raise her head: "It's you, Kakashi. Sit down."

"I'm just going to check it out with you, take a look at the specific condition of your eyes, and see if I can find a solution."

Kakashi felt anxious, nodded, pushed up his forehead protector, revealing his empty left eye.

Not only was the eyeball pulled out last time, but the eyelids were also damaged to some extent.

Tsunade immediately started checking.

Natsuki was also a little curious about the condition of Kakashi's eyes, so he simply waited here.

Natsuki discovered that Tsunade's desk was filled with medical books and some sketches that he couldn't understand.

Judging from the human model drawn above, it should also be a medical thing.

I don't know if Tsunade is reviewing things she has lost over the years, or if she is learning new things.

The inspection was completed in a while.

Tsunade frowned and thought for a long time.

Finally, he shook his head and said to Kakashi: "I'm sorry Kakashi, I can't regenerate your left eye at the moment. It will take me a long time to see what's going on."

Kakashi felt regretful, but he also understood that eyeballs are quite complex things, and regenerating eyeballs and replacing eyeballs are completely different things.

If it can’t be regenerated…

"Thank you, Tsunade-sama, I can't waste so much of your time."

"If there is a problem with regeneration, I can consider transplanting the eyeball."

Kakashi doesn't want to owe such a big favor. After all, medical research may require a lot of time and energy, but it will all be in vain in the end.

Lady Tsunade has done enough for him.

Tsunade shook her head. This is indeed the most convenient way, but not every eye is suitable for Kakashi.

The quality of the eyes will not be known until they are installed.

Tsunade suddenly felt that if she had been learning and improving over the years, this kind of problem would be easily solved by herself.

…

Kakashi took Gai away.

The mental state of the tribesmen who were just ordered to show Kai around was not good.

I don’t know what kind of torture I suffered, but luckily I took the opportunity to escape.

Natsuki thought, Kakashi must have come here on a mission to explore Uchiha.

It's just that Kakashi will definitely not be able to detect anything. After all, the Uchiha clan has no plans at all.

Kakashi didn't show much emotion about the inability to regenerate his eyes. Kakashi now looked like he was looking for hope in the midst of decadence.

For Obito, he should have his own plans in mind.

…

Chapter 209 Testing along the way

Within the Land of Fire.

Otogakure and his group are on their way.

The four sound ninjas were walking in the middle carrying a sedan.
