Naruto: Reincarnation of a Hundred Lifetimes, the Uchiha's White Moonlight

"Kakashi, you don't need to blame yourself at all. This has nothing to do with you."

Rin Nohara paused, a hint of anticipation in her eyes: "By the way, Obito? How is he?"

"That kid is something else."

When Obito was mentioned, Kakashi's tone relaxed a bit, and he said frankly, "He awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan of the Uchiha clan. The former loser is now incredibly strong, and he's already married with children."

"Really? Then I really must congratulate him."

Nohara Rin smiled and nodded, then looked at Kakashi and said seriously, "Also, thank you."

Don't worry, I'll slowly pay back the merit points I owe.

She has always been a clear-headed and strong-willed girl who never wants to owe anyone anything for no reason.

Kakashi did not refuse.

He knew that if he wanted to truly maintain this friendship that had been lost and then regained, respect was the only way to ensure its longevity.

One-sided giving is selfish, and so is one-sided accommodation. Only by treating each other equally can we go further together.

As we left the roots, night fell, a gentle breeze blew through the streets, and the moonlight was exceptionally bright, casting a soft glow across the ground.

Kakashi and Rin Nohara strolled side by side through the streets of Konoha, their shadows stretched long by the dim streetlights.

At the alley entrance not far away, Obito Uchiha stood quietly, not approaching, but simply gazing into the distance.

He already knew that the person in Rin's heart had always been Kakashi.

But even now, seeing how harmoniously Rin and Kakashi get along after Rin's resurrection, it's still striking.

Only then did he truly accept the matter from the bottom of his heart.

A hint of relief flashed in his eyes, and Obito turned gently and walked towards home.

That youthful obsession has finally come to an end.

Peaceful Konoha, a wonderful life, and family by my side—that's enough.

The next day, in the Hokage's office in Konoha.

Yun An was sitting in the advisor's seat processing official documents, while Orochimaru sat in the main seat, reviewing reports from various places.

The door was gently pushed open, and Kakashi Hatake walked in, bowing respectfully: "Kakashi, Captain of the Second Division of the Anbu, reporting for duty."

He had previously traveled to the Land of Snow with Yun An, which had taken up a considerable amount of time. If it hadn't been an "S-rank mission" and he had helped Konoha subdue the Land of Snow, as the captain of the Dark Force, he would never have been so idle.

The affairs of the second squad of the Anbu are already complicated, but Kakashi's visit today is clearly not for official business.

"Kakashi, just say what's on your mind."

Orochimaru looked up and put down his pen.

He knew Kakashi's character well; he was calm and reserved, and would not easily mention personal matters during office hours unless it was something important. "If the village can help, we will definitely do our best to help."

Kakashi scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and brought up the matter of Rin Nohara's resurrection. He then made his request: "Hokage-sama, I would like to ask you to temporarily assign Rin to the Anbu. Doesn't the Anbu have a logistics department now?"

Clerks and engineering ninjas are people who don't need to go to the battlefield.

He was right; Konoha today is no longer the ninja village that relied on fighting to survive.

The profits generated by the ninjas greatly alleviated the village's financial pressure, and the ninjas became highly sought-after in all walks of life, no longer having to rely on taking on paid missions to make a living as before.

Building buildings, repairing bridges, developing ninja tools, and cultivating ninja plants—these peaceful tasks only consume a small amount of chakra and can accumulate experience points for peace engineering ninjas, building up their resumes for obtaining higher-level certificates.

In contrast, those combat-oriented mercenary jobs, aside from a few necessary combat strength maintenance and references for Chunin and Jonin promotions, are almost entirely disadvantageous. The little money earned is no longer of interest to Konoha and the ninjas, and the village no longer provides strong support.

If it weren't for the need to preserve the combat strength of ninjas, the mercenary mission would probably have been eliminated in Konoha long ago.

All Kakashi wanted was for Rin Nohara to be safe and sound, and never have to be in danger again.

This was something precious that he had lost and then regained, and he wanted to protect her with all his might.

Orochimaru pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

This is a reasonable request. Besides, you are the commander of the secret service; assigning someone to the logistics department is perfectly appropriate.

Such a reasonable request.

He had no reason to refuse.

"Thank you, Hokage."

Kakashi's face instantly lit up with joy, his tone barely concealing his excitement.

Just as he turned to leave, Yun An's teasing voice rang out at the opportune moment: "Kakashi, when are you and Rin getting married?"

Yun An put down the official document in his hand and looked at him with a half-smile: "Look at Obito, and then look at Kurenai Yuhi and Shinnosuke Sarutobi."

They are roughly the same generation as you, but they have already started families and had children.

Could it be that the future head of the Hatake family, at such an advanced age, is still planning to remain a spinster?

Upon hearing this, Kakashi's face flushed instantly, his usual composure vanishing, replaced by a boyish embarrassment. Yet, he took a deep breath, bowed deeply to Yun An, and said firmly, "Please rest assured, Advisor Yun An, I will do my best."

Seeing this, Yun An chuckled softly and gave him a congratulatory gesture: "Alright, then I, your advisor, will be waiting to drink your wedding wine."

Kakashi's face flushed even redder, but he nodded emphatically, his eyes filled with unwavering determination.

In terms of confidence.

He was never the one who was missing.

He was a genius of Konoha in his youth, and after adulthood, he firmly held the position of captain of the Anbu. His Kage-level strength was within reach. Not long ago, he followed Yun An to pacify the Land of Snow and made great contributions to Konoha. He is a true hero of the village.

With such looks, even in the entire Konoha matchmaking market, he would be a top-tier, high-quality ninja. There have never been many female ninjas who like him, and no one can find fault with that.

"This is what young people should be like."

Watching Kakashi's retreating figure, Yun An sighed softly.

He didn't need to worry about Orochimaru beside him. This Hokage was even more cunning, having devised a method of asexual reproduction. His relationship with Mitsuki was becoming increasingly harmonious, and they lived a peaceful and smooth life.

For Yu Yun'an, there's no need to comment on other people's happiness; being content is enough, and everything else is insignificant.

But Yun'an's eyes darted around, and she suddenly felt a tickle in her heart.

How could such a wonderful scene of young people confessing their love be complete without him, an "experienced person," observing?

Who knows, he might even be able to give Kakashi a few pointers.

He believes he is quite qualified in this regard.

With a thought, Yun An silently followed Kakashi and actually found Nohara Rin's trail.

At this moment, Nohara Rin was busy at the Konoha Welfare Home, helping the caregivers look after the children, her eyes full of tenderness.

Kakashi pushed open the door and entered, explaining the arrangements for the Anbu logistics department to her. Nohara Rin nodded in agreement without hesitation.

She has always been a perceptive and sensible girl. Knowing that Kakashi genuinely cares about her, she naturally wouldn't let him down.
