"I … killed Xiao Lin with my own hands!"
Kakashi's voice was hoarse. Tears flowed down from the corners of his eyes. As he spoke, his body trembled as he lay on the hospital bed. His expression was full of struggle.
Hearing this, Watergate's expression suddenly changed, and his fists gradually clenched.
Before Kakashi woke up, the latter still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, but after receiving his answer, his hope was completely shattered.
Because this was consistent with the history that Watergate knew.
"What?!"
Beside Watergate, Shinna Kushina's expression also changed abruptly. Her eyes were also filled with grief.
Because the Bordered Soil and Lin were also very familiar with her and had a very good relationship with each other.
However, Shinna Kushina was no longer the brat who only knew how to barge into trouble. Although she wanted to know the details of the incident, now was obviously not the time.
"Who is it?
Who is it?! "
At this moment, Watergate was roaring in his heart. Coupled with everything he had deduced before, he did not believe that Lin's death was just a coincidence.
He had never been so angry before. His heart was filled with killing intent!
Watergate was still unsure if all this was the work of the masked man who had attacked Wood Leaf.
However, in his heart, he had already placed the people who planned this on his list of people he must kill!
Watergate, who had just returned from the battlefield, exuded an imposing aura. Even if it was an unintentional burst of murderous intent, it was enough to make Kakashi and Shinna Kushina pale.
Especially Kakashi, whose killing intent reminded him of the look of despair on Lin's face before he fainted.
[Kakashi …]
"Ah!!"
He roared like a wild beast and hugged his head with both hands. His body subconsciously curled up.
"Watergate!"
Shinna Kushina shouted and pulled Watergate back from his daze.
At this moment, the door of the ward was pulled open and several medical staff hurried in.
They looked at Kakashi on the bed and said to the two people in front of them, "The patient's emotions are very unstable now. You should wait for a while before visiting again."
Watergate also noticed that he had once again provoked Kakashi. He apologized to the doctor and then temporarily left Wood Leaf Hospital with Shinna Kushina.
On the way home from the hospital, Watergate's face was gloomy and he was silent.
Shinna Kushina was very worried about him. She knew the relationship between Watergate and his three disciples.
Watergate had saved many people on the battlefield of World War III, but he had failed to protect the people he cherished.
No matter how strong a person was, they would not be able to accept this kind of pain.
The two returned to Watergate's house. The latter gave Shinna Kushina a slightly bitter smile and said softly, "I'm going back to my room to rest for a while. Sorry."
"Watergate …"
Shinna Kushina whispered, looking at the back of the blond man who was slowly walking away, she couldn't help but feel distressed.
Walking into his room and closing the door, the man's gloomy eyes flickered slightly, and finally, two lines of tears gradually fell down.
Ninjas can't cry, not to mention that he is now the Golden Flash of the Ninja World.
On the battlefield, no matter how strong the opponent or pressure is, he can always resolve it with a smile as warm as the sun.
But … he still didn't protect the Bordered Soil and Rin.
Watergate blamed himself, obviously … he had lost a chance.
[I won't give up. Before that, Watergate -senpai, you have to realize your dream. As Naruto, protect this village. I will personally take the position of Naruto and this Wood Leaf Ninja Village from your hands.]
[Watergate -senpai is so gentle!]
[Watergate -senpai!]
[Watergate -senpai …]
The smiling faces of the boy and the girl appeared in front of Watergate's eyes as if it was yesterday.
"Why … Why didn't I make it in time!!"
Watergate roared in his heart, and deep in his soul, the same emotion came out.
That's the great Watergate …
Both of them were depressed. In the room, Watergate was sobbing softly.
At this time, outside the door, Shinna Kushina's eyes were also gloomy.
"Yondaime-sama Naruto, you are really useless, if you let Hanzo the Salamander, Raikage, and those who lost to you see your current expression, they will be very unwilling."
At this time, in Watergate's mind, Nine Tails's joking voice sounded.
"Nine Tails …"
Watergate's eyes were slightly stunned.
Immediately, he laughed at himself. At this time … of course, Nine Tails was laughing at him.
Indeed, he was a failure.
"Since the two kids named Obito and Rin are already dead, then as a teacher, even if you keep crying here, will they be able to come back to life?"
"If you have the time, why don't you think about the person who planned all of this in the dark?"
However, contrary to Minato's expectations, Kyuubi didn't mock him. Instead, she said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, the former's eyes slightly widened.
Indeed, what's the point of blaming himself here, Bordered Soil and Rin were not resurrected because of this.
Instead of being sad, it's better to find the person who planned all of this behind the scenes and avenge those who died.
It's not that Watergate didn't think about these things before, but he couldn't confirm it at all.
At this time, Nine Tails's voice sounded again.
"The Chakra you sensed when you rescued Kakashi was indeed a tailed beast, and its master should be the Sanbi of the Mist."
"That feeling was indeed the death of the Sanbi along with his Jinchuriki."
Nine Tails was different from Watergate. As a tailed beast, he naturally knew who the Chakra that Watergate sensed belonged to.
"It's the Mist again …" Watergate was angry.
Everything that happened so far was related to the Mist.
Now even the Sanbi and his Jinchuriki were involved, which proved his previous inference.
The Mist and even the Third Mizukage should be controlled or used by someone.
While thinking, Watergate was startled again because Nine Tails took the initiative to tell him this information that he didn't know.
Nine Tails's action surprised him.
"Humph!"
Just as he thought about it, Nine Tails snorted again, and then his voice sounded again.
"I just don't want you to die because of this and drag me down again!"
Obviously, everything that the person had planned was aimed at Minato. One day, he would take the initiative to look for Minato.
At that time, it will be extremely dangerous. Today, Watergate and Nine Tails are one.
If Watergate dies because of this, Nine Tails will also die.
Now, it was just a remnant of its consciousness. Its power had been taken away by an unknown force. As the Water Gate continued to grow, it merged into its body.
Therefore, even if a tailed beast can be resurrected, the current Nine Tails can't do it.
Hearing Nine Tails's reasonable explanation, Watergate couldn't help but smile.
Then he whispered in his heart.
"Thank you, Nine Tails!"
