Ninja World: I'm really a support-type ninja

Seriously, thank you to your ancestors for eight generations!

Mei Terumi rolled her eyes, resisting the urge to swear, and then began to carefully inventory the large pile of war supplies.

"372 boxes of kunai, totaling 18 pieces."

"273 boxes of medicine, totaling 27 units."

"5421 boxes of wartime rations, weighing 42 tons."

"500 boxes of detonating tags, totaling 25 tags."

"Shuriken..."

After Mei Terumi finished her work for half an hour, Kakashi returned to the war supplies storage point in Kirigakure and listened carefully to Mei Terumi's report.

"Hmm, very obedient, which saves me a lot of trouble."

Kakashi casually remarked, but what was said in jest was taken seriously by the listener. Mei Terumi, who was reporting the specific quantities of various supplies to Kakashi, began to grit her teeth again.

"Do you think it's not enough?" Kakashi tilted his head.

"No!" Mei Terumi's tone was sharp. "These supplies include a portion of our Bear Country!"

"That's not something you or I should worry about."

Kakashi shook his head. "The Hidden Mist Village's ninja forces have already retreated to your country's coastline, and my mission is complete."

"So, what is your task, and what do you need to do?"

"Have the Hidden Mist Village troops already retreated?" Mei Terumi asked Kakashi blankly, looking somewhat lost.

"Yes, they have already retreated."

"Hmm... It's good that we retreated..."

Mei Terumi blinked, suppressing the sorrow in her heart, and refocused her attention on the assassination of Kakashi.

"Come with me."

"it is good."

Kakashi nodded, asked no further questions, and followed Mei Terumi out of the tent.

"Kakashi, she is..."

Just then, Orochimaru led a group of men to the Hidden Mist Village camp to receive all the war supplies.

Orochimaru was somewhat surprised to see a strange ninja accompanying Kakashi. Then, he took a closer look at Mei Terumi with great interest and even stuck out his long tongue to lick his lips.

"Were those Mist Ninjas you captured?"

“No, she’s a ninja from the Land of Bears,” Kakashi replied, beckoning to Mei Terumi to hand over the secret order.

Somewhat reluctantly, Mei Terumi had no choice but to comply.

With a hint of trepidation in her eyes, Mei Terumi handed the secret order to Kakashi, who then casually passed it to Orochimaru.

"Heh, the secret order is real."

Orochimaru withdrew his gaze from the secret order, then looked Mei Terumi up and down, his eyes gleaming with an inscrutable light.

Then, Orochimaru's gaze fell on Kakashi. "Kakashi, where are you taking her?"

"She helped me take inventory of all the war supplies left behind by Kirigakure, and now I'm going to help her complete the task she was entrusted with."

"Heh." Orochimaru chuckled softly. "Good luck, Kakashi."

"Of course, and you too, ninja from the Land of Bears."

Orochimaru stared intently at Mei Terumi for a while before handing the secret order back to her.

"Go do what you want to do, Kakashi."

Orochimaru nodded to Kakashi, then walked into the storage point in Kirigakure where war supplies were kept.

"call……!"

Mei Terumi let out a long sigh of relief. When Orochimaru was staring at her just now, she felt like he could see right through her...

"What's wrong?" Kakashi asked.

"Was that Orochimaru the Cold-Hearted Lord just now?"

“Yes.” Kakashi nodded.

"His aura is really strong... and his gaze... it's like he can see right through me."

"Lord Orochimaru is indeed such a person."

Kakashi neither confirmed nor denied it, saying, "But this also proves that there is no problem with your identity, so I can rest assured."

"What if there's a problem with my identity?"

"It's simple, I'll kill you."

Kakashi looked at Mei Terumi very seriously, "This is wartime, and I will not let any enemy go unpunished, no matter who they are."

"What if it weren't during wartime?" Mei Terumi asked again.

"I don't know... but I don't hate you."

"Me too."

Mei Terumi struggled for a moment, but quickly regained her resolve and quietly clenched her hand hidden in her sleeve.

“But this is wartime…” Mei Terumi couldn’t help but ask, “Then do you think you wouldn’t hate me during this time?”

"I have no idea……"

Kakashi shook his head again, "I've never thought about that."

"So what issue have you been thinking about?"

"Being with my brother." Kakashi's lips curled up slightly, and his voice became much lighter.

"Humph!"

Mei Terumi snorted, feeling quite annoyed. "You and your brother seem to have a very good relationship!"

"He's my brother!"

Kakashi was in high spirits, feeling an urge to show off, because he wanted all the strangers to know how good Akira Hatake was to him.

"You may not know this, but my brother will cook saury for me, give me guidance, train with me day and night, and help me when I feel helpless."

"Although he seems lazy and unmotivated every day, and he bullies me all the time, in my eyes, he is the most perfect brother in the world."

"And there's more..."

Gradually, Kakashi started talking non-stop, praising Akira Hatake without repeating a single word of praise.

"Damn it! This sense of superiority is so annoying..."

"And... how could I possibly feel envious?!"

"It shouldn't be..."

"No! We have to take action!"

Having made up her mind, Mei Terumi slowly approached Kakashi while he was talking non-stop, and her right hand quietly slipped into her ninja tool pouch.

"and then?"

Akira Hatake was getting impatient. Kakashi had stopped at the most crucial moment, which made Akira scratch his head in frustration.

"Brother, it's not that I don't want to talk..."

Kakashi pointed to the tent next to him, "It's time for you to go see Orochimaru."

"This……"

Akira Hatake immediately let out a sigh of thanks, then glanced at Kakashi with a rather helpless expression, feeling that he had been tricked by Kakashi.

Although I can't quite put my finger on what's wrong, I just feel like Kakashi is acting a bit strangely.

Shaking his head, Akira Hatake couldn't help but laugh out loud. "In that case, tell me more about it when you have some free time."

"Ah."

Kakashi nodded and watched as Akira Hatake lifted the tent flap and entered Orochimaru's command tent.

“Brother… I’ve actually already guessed Mei Terumi’s true identity.”

Kakashi looked towards the Land of Water, "There are some things I don't know how to tell you about later, and even if I did... I don't think you would agree."

"After all, you are someone who aspires to unify the entire ninja world."

Kakashi glanced at Orochimaru's tent, then turned and left.

Inside Orochimaru's command tent, Akira Hatake and Orochimaru sat facing each other.

"Lord Orochimaru, are you ready?"

"There's nothing to prepare. My unit is ready to depart at any time." Orochimaru licked his lips. "But I'll need to trouble you again this time, Akira."

"It's no trouble at all, it's all for Konoha."

Akira Hatake replied casually, but then changed the subject, "Orochimaru, now that we've finished discussing official business, it's time to talk about our personal matters."

Orochimaru's eyes flashed, and he immediately sat up straight, staring intently at Akira Hatake. "Is that so? Then I'm all ears."

"Orochimaru, let's not beat around the bush. I know all the dirty tricks you've been up to with Danzo Shimura behind the scenes."

"Ha, Shimura Danzo is dead, there's no point in talking about this now."

Orochimaru chuckled lightly, "If you want to talk about some private matters, you're still not being honest enough, Akira!"

"I'm just reminding you." Hatake Akira looked directly into Orochimaru's snake-like eyes. "I want to tell you that I know you very well, even better than you know yourself."

"Heh, interesting." Orochimaru laughed heartily, but there was a hint of coldness in his smile. "Tell me about it."

“I know your pursuits, I know your needs, and I also know your style of doing things.”

Akira Hatake looked at Orochimaru very seriously, "You have never been someone who can be controlled by others, and you are also someone who refuses to be manipulated by fate."
