Naruto: With maxed-out affection, I am invincible in the ninja world.

"It also fulfills my and my lover's dreams. I'm so excited, I don't know what to say."

Minato remembers reading a book where the comments included expressions of gratitude.

He glanced at Kushina, then at Haneda, and chuckled:

"I am very grateful for the support and encouragement of my beloved Kushina, and I am also grateful for Haneda's inspiration in ninjutsu."

"I still remember clearly that Haneda saved me and my lover two years ago."

"That involves a classified information, but it's not important now..."

Minato continued his remarks, while the Jonin below the stage were already focused on Haneda.

Uchiha Haneda actually saved the soon-to-be-appointed Fourth Hokage and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki two years ago!

God!

They actually had a life-or-death friendship!

The heads of the various ninja clans exchanged knowing glances as they looked toward where Uchiha Haneda was.

They were well aware that the Uchiha clan, with Haneda's support, would surely rise to prominence in the future!

Seven years ago, Haneda was just a child protected by the Uchiha clan and Sakumo.

In just seven years, he has grown into a powerful figure capable of protecting his clan and safeguarding Konoha!

Danzo, sitting on the elders' seat, felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

He could almost see the terrible state of the Root organization after Minato took office.

With the support of the Uchiha clan, the most powerful clan in Konoha, Minato Namikaze became the Hokage with real power upon taking office!

If Minato had any desire for power, these elders would be the first to be dealt with!

All of these reasons ultimately boil down to that inherently evil Uchiha brat, and Orochimaru!

"Damn it!"

Danzo cursed inwardly.

He looked up at Hiruzen, thinking with a sense of disappointment and frustration:

"Look, Hiruzen!"

"Sooner or later, you will regret your foolish decision!"

Chapter 177 Orochimaru's Farewell Gift

After the Jonin meeting, Haneda and Kakashi coincidentally arrived at a tree outside the Hokage Building.

"Go to the hospital?" Kakashi asked habitually.

"Yes. Let's go visit Kai."

Haneda had already planned this, so he nodded.

After taking a few steps, Kakashi said with some guilt:

"I haven't seen Kai for the past few days. I thought he was out on a mission."

"I never expected it would be his teacher..."

This feeling of betrayal reminded Kakashi of how his father felt when he was slandered by his comrades.

He sighed and said:

"I hope Kai can pull himself together."

"Yes, it will." Haneda looked up at the sky, knowing that Kai's thick skin would probably make him forget about it soon.

Soon, Haneda and Kakashi arrived at Konoha Hospital.

At this time, the hospital was somewhat deserted, with only a few people in the courtyard at the entrance.

Haneda asked a nurse for directions and went straight to Kai's ward.

At that moment, a series of counting sounds came from inside the room.

"One hundred and three, one hundred and four, one hundred and five..."

Kakashi sensed something was wrong and thought Guy had a mental problem.

He quickly pushed open the door and saw Kai wearing a hospital gown, doing finger push-ups.

Hearing the door open, Kai looked up and saw Kakashi!

He immediately abandoned his daily training and excitedly went to Kakashi:

"Yoshi! I didn't expect you to come looking for me!"

"Accept the challenge of my youth, Kakashi-san!"

Upon hearing those familiar words, Kakashi turned around and looked behind him, but he didn't see Haneda's figure.

He stared with dead fish eyes and said, "I refuse."

Upon seeing that Guy had already placed his hands on his shoulders, Kakashi instinctively knew what Guy was going to say next and refused again:

"Kai, your injury hasn't healed yet, let's wait until next time."

Kakashi placed a bouquet of carnations he had bought at a roadside flower shop on his bedside table.

He looked at Kai, whose mental state was the same as always...

Very youthful.

Haneda walked in at that moment.

He smiled at Kai:

"You worked hard today too, Kai."

"Are they training behind the nurses' backs?"

Kai's thoughts were seen through, and he scratched his head, saying:

"Haha, the nurse said I can't do strenuous exercise and need to rest, but youth never stops."

Haneda approached Kai, gathering Yang-attribute chakra in his hands, and asked with concern:

"I'm also a semi-medical ninja, let me check you out."

"it is good."

Kai nodded and did not refuse.

In the past, whenever he was injured, Haneda would help treat him if he was around.

He's gotten used to it.

Haneda used his chakra to check on Guy's body.

He sensed a familiar aura and discovered the First Generation cells in Kai's body!

Haneda frowned. Given Orochimaru's personality, he shouldn't be using his disciples for experiments.

He channeled his chakra and swam around the First Hokage's cells, but the cells did not react and seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

Haneda seemed to be deep in thought.

Given the domineering nature of the First Generation Cell, it would be impossible for it to tolerate other chakras lingering nearby.

Orochimaru appears to have performed a special procedure, implanting the First Hokage's cells into Guy's body.

Haneda patted Kai on the shoulder and smiled:

"no problem."

"It would be best if you avoided strenuous exercise these next few days, Kai."

Although Haneda somewhat understood Orochimaru's intentions, he did not mention the name to Guy.

Like Kakashi, they have an unspoken understanding to avoid talking about such matters.

Upon hearing this, Kai nodded.

But thinking about not being able to exercise for the next few days, he had a headache and hesitated:

"Really not possible, Haneda? The doctor said I only suffered some internal injuries..."

"No."

Haneda shook his head.

Orochimaru's gift to Karyu is definitely safe and secure.

However, this period is uncertain; we'll have to wait until Kai has fully recovered before making a decision.

Haneda is a domineering person who knows about the first generation of cells.

Even with the Mangekyou Sharingan and the eye technique Senro Manjushri, it would still take him about a year to integrate them.

The three chatted about their childhood, and before they knew it, it was noon.
