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

That is, the ability to predict the future.

Of course, this eye technique was created by Haneda to make Fugaku and his clansmen believe in him.

This matter had already been discussed at the clan meeting.

Haneda used this fake eye technique to fool many people and successfully led the Uchiha clan to integrate into the village.

"I will arrange this matter properly, and the Grand Elder and the others will assist me, so you can rest assured."

Haneda glanced at Fugaku, but considering the support of the elders, he wasn't too worried.

As the largest clan in Konoha, the Uchiha have a very deep foundation.

In the original story, some Uchiha members dared to persuade Fugaku to launch an uprising, which is enough to show that the Uchiha were confident of success.

Moreover, Haneda's arrangements for the Nine-Tails' rampage were quite thorough.

Even if something goes wrong with the Uchiha clan, Tsunade and Jiraiya will be there to cover for them.

If all else fails, there are still the threatened Root members, the Third Hokage, Minato, Dai, as well as Kakashi and himself.

At least six Kage-level actors!

Haneda believed that stopping the Nine-Tails' rampage was a sure thing.

The only concern was whether I could persuade Obito.

Itachi, carrying Sasuke, walked over and asked in confusion:

"Father, Brother Haneda, is the village going to be at war again?"

Haneda glanced at Fugaku and smiled:

"There was a disturbance, but those were matters for adults."

"You'd better stay far away then, and remember to protect your little brother."

Haneda then turned his gaze to Yamato and smiled:

"You also need to protect yourself, and Itachi and the others."

"Okay!" Yamato nodded vigorously, secretly determined to protect Itachi and Sasuke.

Itachi said, "Protecting my younger brother requires sufficient strength."

"Brother Haneda, can we train together this afternoon?"

"Forgive me, fighting seven at once. Maybe next time."

Haneda gently tapped Itachi's forehead and walked towards Konoha.

He waved goodbye, saying:

"I have something to do with Kakashi this afternoon."

"Yamato, I might not be home tonight. You should train with Brother Fugaku for now."

"Okay." Yamato said, looking at Haneda's retreating figure with some reluctance.

Recently, Haneda-nii has been getting busier and busier, and he rarely teaches him Wood Release anymore.

but……

Only Haneda-nii knows that he can use Wood Release.

Yamato smiled slightly.

Itachi pouted and prepared to go find Shisui in the afternoon.

Although Haneda's fire jutsu, swordsmanship, and illusion techniques are countless times stronger than Shisui's.

But I'm very happy to be with Zhishui-ge.

…………

After leaving the Uchiha clan's territory, Haneda arrived at the third training ground where Kakashi usually stayed.

Since Sakumo's death, Kakashi had not visited the Hatake clan's training grounds for a long time, and instead often stayed at the place where Minato used to train.

Upon arriving at the third training ground, as expected, Minato was not there; only Kakashi was training.

Haneda created about ten shadow clones, each cultivating on the side.

Haneda himself stood on a large rock, quietly watching Kakashi train.

Kakashi was on a flat area with several kunai resembling the Sword of Love lying on the ground.

Undoubtedly, he is practicing the Flying Thunder God Technique.

But the space flickered very slowly, and Kakashi's forehead was covered in sweat, with his Sharingan peeking out from under his headband.

Haneda sensed that Kakashi's chakra was almost depleted, so he picked up his water pouch and went over.

As he approached Kakashi, he handed him the water bag.

"Is there still no progress with the Flying Thunder God technique?"

Kakashi took the water bag, took a big gulp, wiped his mouth, and said:

"You know how difficult the technique is; without talent, you can only rely on hard work and perseverance."

Kakashi sat down, looked up at the blue sky, and drank water from his water bag.

Haneda also sat down right next to Kakashi.

"Yes, in the entire Hidden Leaf Village, only Minato-senpai truly mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique," Haneda remarked.

He studied on and off for almost two years, but in the end, he could only use it in conjunction with Kakashi, and even then, the speed was slow.

It doesn't even reach the level of a half-finished water gate.

"Maybe I'll learn it someday," Kakashi said, his eyes filled with hope as he offered words of comfort.

A gentle breeze brushed against their faces. Kakashi looked at the familiar third training ground and said:

"Shall we go and see Obito at the memorial stone?"

"it is good."

Haneda knew that Kakashi was going to give Obito flowers again, and silently clenched his fist.

Regardless, he will have a proper talk with Obito this time.

The memorial is located in the park centered around Konoha.

Since the third training ground was quite far away, Haneda accompanied Kakashi to a flower shop to buy flowers, and then took the flowers to the memorial monument.

Haneda and Kakashi silently placed flowers in front of Sakumo's tombstone, and then went to Obito and Rin's graves.

"Are you still feeling guilty?"

Haneda looked at Kakashi wiping his hands with a towel and said with a pang of pity,

“I heard that it was Lin’s own choice.”

"Whether it's for you or for the village."

After wiping his hands, Kakashi silently cleaned the tombstone, replaced the withered flowers with new ones, and placed them back in front of the tombstone.

As he stood up, he said softly:

"I know."

“I know you understand how I feel.”

"So I cherish the past and move forward with the pain, so that this will never happen again."

Haneda stood beside Kakashi, silently mourning with him.

After a long while, Kakashi opened his eyes and asked habitually:

"Where to next? To cultivate?"

Hearing the familiar words, Haneda looked up at the sky and smiled:

"Let's go have lunch first."

…………

After Haneda and Kakashi left, Obito emerged from the shadows of the trees.

He walked to the spot where Haneda and Kakashi had been, and looked at the two bouquets of flowers in front of the tombstone. Time seemed to stand still.

After a moment, Obito pulled out the flower that Kakashi had stuck in his hair and threw it away.

What's the point of this power if I can't protect those I should protect?

Obito turned and left, but after a few steps, he turned back and took one last deep look at the flowers that Haneda had placed in front of the tombstone.

A moment later, a vortex appeared out of thin air.

Obito then left the place.

On the Hokage Rock, Obito gazed at Konoha, his eyes finally settling on the Hokage Building.

He asked in a low voice, "How much longer?"

Bai Jue emerged from underground and replied, "Twenty-seven days."
