Naruto: I Have Doraemon

"Sky Burial, you go and escort the princes and adults to safety. I still have something to do..."

After Kakashi led a few people to escort the princes of various countries out of the venue, he gave instructions to Sky Burial, and the figure left in an instant.

"What...?"

"In such a dangerous situation, only the three of you are left to protect us?"

"Konoha's ninjas, are you really this irresponsible?"

"Hey... You three, can you actually escort us out safely?"

"Really, how did you end up in such a dangerous situation? Don't ever attend another Chūnin exam again!"

The princes glared at Sky Burial, and his face darkened, feeling that Kakashi had tricked him again.

Kakashi returned to the venue in an instant and headed directly to the place where he had sealed White Fang's half-body earlier.

Since both White Fang and Hizashi had been sealed, Yakushi Kabuto had also released their consciousness.

When Kakashi arrived, he happened to see Hiashi and Neji talking to Hizashi.

However, Kakashi wasn't in the mood to pay attention to them right now.

"Father, I have a question for you. What was the reason for your suicide? With your strength and status, you shouldn't have done that!"

Kakashi squatted beside White Fang, helped him up, and asked.

This had been an incomprehensible question in Kakashi's heart.

Especially after seeing the other side of Danzo and the Third Hokage, Kakashi had a faint idea forming in his mind.

"Kakashi, I'm glad to see that you've surpassed me. I am also very relieved by Lin's existence. Kakashi, you also deserve your own happiness!"

White Fang looked at Kakashi, but did not answer the question. Joy and admiration were clear on his face.

"Father, that's not what I asked. This Forbidden Technique, I don't know when it will disappear. Can you answer this doubt for me before you leave? Is there something else here?"

Thinking of Lin, Kakashi's lips curled slightly under his mask, but he continued asking.

"This... Kakashi, I'm sorry! It's a bit embarrassing to say this, but I made you bear such a heavy burden when you were very young. There's no deeper reason here. At that time, I chose the interests of the village and my companions over my own.

As a result, a huge loss was inflicted on Konoha, and many Konoha Shinobi were either killed or injured. During that time, rumors spread, and even my companions came out to accuse me. But those weren't the reasons for my suicide.

It was because my own beliefs collapsed!

With my strong 'Will of Fire,' I had always believed that companions are more important than the mission. But the truth is, when a choice must be made, sometimes abandoning your companion is the best choice to be responsible to the other companions.

This cruel reality shattered my understanding of the Will of Fire!

In this harsh ninja world, those who survive aren't necessarily happy.

Kakashi, you who practice swordsmanship should understand the firm requirements of swordsmanship on personal beliefs.

When my faith collapsed, I wasn't just questioning myself and the village. There was also the fact that my strength was rapidly declining.

For many reasons, I chose to kill myself.

Kakashi, forgive me... I am, in fact, a cowardly father."

A flash of reminiscence crossed White Fang's eyes as he thought of the situation he faced back then. The smile on his face turned into guilt, and he spoke slowly.

"The collapse of the Will of Fire..." Kakashi's pupils shrank. He was about to refute something, but as the words came to his lips, he was overwhelmed by a flood of images.

Events like the Battle of Kannabi, Lin's death, the Night of the Nine Tails, and more, emerged one by one in Kakashi's mind.

At that time, he also experienced running away from himself, a decline in strength, and feeling lost.

However, with the help of Guy and other companions, after more than ten years, he gradually began to emerge from the haze, bit by bit.

In the end, with Naruto's help and the battle against Shenwubi, Kakashi was finally able to let go of the past and regain himself.

But back then, his father, White Fang, had no one to help or comfort him, and endured all of it alone.

Thinking about this, Kakashi gradually understood his father, White Fang.

"Father, if... if I didn't want you to die back then, would you have persevered for me?"

Kakashi thought of Naruto, his heart stirred, and he asked quietly.

"I don't know... back then.

But now, I definitely would."

Kakashi could hear the sadness in White Fang's words.

Even if Kakashi had stopped him, White Fang would have still chosen to commit suicide.

Only someone like White Fang, who had died once, could be reborn in faith.

Meanwhile, on the other side:

"Neji, your Caged Bird seal is really gone! Hyuga, has it truly changed?"

Hizashi looked at Neji's smooth forehead, excited after hearing about the change in the branch house.

Before his death, he had always felt regret over the existence of the Caged Bird seal, and harbored resentment towards the main family. But now, his son had completely rid himself of the Caged Bird seal.

Neji must be the strongest talent of this generation!

"Hizashi, due to the issue with the branch house, you and I have always had a bit of estrangement. Though life and death have now separated us, we can finally open our hearts and talk freely. You can rest assured about Neji's future!

I will do my best to help him become the strongest Hyuga. Maybe, in the future, he will even become the head of the Hyuga clan!"

Standing beside Neji, Hiashi smiled and reassured his brother.

Brotherhood played the largest role, but there were also some political considerations.

What Hiashi didn't know was that Neji, representing the branch house, had plans for the future. For safety's sake, Hiashi was betting on Neji's success.

Neji didn't feel the need to explain too much. Once the Chūnin exams were over, everything would become clear.

While they were expressing their feelings, the battle on the Hokage's side also heated up.

The undead First and Second Generations, along with Fugaku who had unleashed Susanoo, quickly wiped out the Root ninjas.

This included the powerful Aburame clan members from Root and Yamanaka Fū.

At the same time, Danzo's right arm, which housed a Sharingan, had lost three eyes.

The current battle situation was as follows: Fugaku was fighting Danzo, the First Hokage and Sarutobi Hiruzen were facing off, while the Second Hokage moved in between, attacking Danzo and Sarutobi from the sides.

"Ha... Ha..."

The First and Second Hokages were unable to kill anyone, and neither Danzo nor Fugaku could be left alive.

"My physical strength is running low. For the sake of Konoha, there is only one option left."

Panting, Sarutobi Hiruzen dodged an attack from the First Hokage. Looking at the chaos around him, he murmured, and his eyes instantly became firm.

Although he didn't feel as extreme toward the Uchiha as Danzo did, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo shared similar views on the Hokage position.

He didn't want Uchiha to become the Fifth Hokage. Without him, Uchiha's domineering and extreme nature wasn't suited for the role of Hokage!

If Danzo wasn't eliminated, Uchiha would ultimately remain the root of Konoha's civil strife.

The best option would be to die with Danzo and Fugaku.

As for Sako Uchiha, Sarutobi Hiruzen trusted Jiraiya would handle it.

After all, Uchiha was still a part of Konoha.

"Ninja Art: Ghoul Seal!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen, having made up his mind, quickly performed hand signs and spoke in a low voice.

Behind him, a phantom of the Shinigami appeared, wearing a white robe, with a ghostly face and fangs. The Shinigami held a rosary in one hand and a short sword in his mouth!

"Is this the Shinigami that only the caster can see, as the Fourth Hokage mentioned?

Here we go!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced back at the ferocious Shinigami, endured the pain of Shinigami's hand piercing through his chest, whispered a few words, and separated into three Shadow Clones.
