"What exactly happened?" Even Kakashi found it hard to accept hearing so many secrets at once.
" Well, it means that the new Six Paths Seal has a regrettable flaw for the Whirlpool Kingdom," Shui Men continued to explain." The original Six Paths Seal can be said to be a unique resource of the Whirlpool Race. Other than the Whirlpool Race's pillar strength, no one else can open it even if they obtain it. However, the new Six Paths Seal doesn't have this characteristic. It doesn't even need pillar strength. As long as you can obtain this seal, you can open it and use it. This flaw was simply unacceptable to the Whirlpool Race, who wanted to monopolize the six seals. In order to prevent the Six Paths Seal from being used by outsiders, they even left the original Six Paths Seal to Muye when they established diplomatic relations with him because they knew that even if Muye broke the contract, he could not use it. Later on, the Vortex Country was swept into the flames of war and was destroyed. Other than the terrifying sealing technique and physique, the Six Paths Seal that outsiders coveted was probably also a major reason. After all, a man's wealth was a crime.”
"In that case, the seal in Lord Selaiya's hands cannot be used by Teacher, so he is looking for another Six Paths Seal? However, the Vortex Country had long been destroyed. Could the seal still be found?”Kakashi asked.
"The leader of the Whirlpool Race was a wise elder. When the Whirlpool Kingdom was at a disadvantage, he sent people to Muye to ask for help. He also left behind information that the Six Paths Seal was hidden just in case. " Unfortunately, Kanye was in a state of emergency at that time. He couldn't even take care of himself, so it was really difficult for him to divide his forces to support them. In the end, the Vortex Nation didn't receive any reinforcements even after it was destroyed," Watergate said with endless emotions." After the war ended, Kushina and I wanted to go to the Vortex Nation to find the Six Paths Seal Style ourselves. Unfortunately, because of the Orochimaru incident, the three generations of lords took the blame and resigned. Kanye was panicking and urgently needed to elect a new Naruto to stabilize the situation. The village chose me. After weighing the pros and cons, he had no choice but to give up on the plan to go to the Vortex Country. As for Kyocinna, she could not go alone because she was a pillar of strength. Later on, I discussed this matter with the third-generation master and sent perception-type ninjas to the Whirlpool Nation many times to search for the Six Paths Seal. However, because the Whirlpool Race had many unique sealing techniques, once they were used, other perception-type ninjas would not be able to discover them unless they used the Whirlpool Race's perception-type barrier. Later on, Kushina and I tried to pick suitable ninjas to teach them the perception barrier of the Whirlpool race. Unfortunately, before we could carry out our plan, we encountered the Nine-Tailed Attack on the Village.”
The water gate let out a long sigh. It was unbearable to recall the past. After that war, they had lost countless precious companions. That kind of memory made people sigh. Even Kakakashi fell silent, recalling the bitter and unwilling memories.
" I see. Mu Ye's Perception Ninja hasn't been able to find it even after going there many times, so the possibility of the seal being taken by another ninja is really low. So, you're guessing that the Six Paths Seal is still hidden in the Whirlpool Nation? However, even though the land was not big, it was still a country. It would be difficult for Teacher to find it in a short period of time, right?”Kakashi cast aside the random thoughts that had suddenly appeared in his mind and continued to ask.
"As I said, the Whirlpool Clan's patriarch left behind information about the six seals being hidden. Based on that information, I can roughly determine its direction. Although I still can't find it in a short period of time, Nine-Tailed's consciousness won't awaken immediately. As long as I don't actively stimulate it, it won't wake up for three to five years.”Watergate chuckled.
"Is that so? It seems that Teacher has already planned it out. As expected, the teacher had not changed at all.”After listening to Watergate's detailed explanation, Kakashi, who had finally lost his last bit of doubt, praised.
" Well, I didn't plan to hide it from you. I just didn't want to tell you. If Teacher Lai Ye had asked me more, I might have told you everything," Watergate said with a chuckle." So, there's no need to hide there and eavesdrop, Teacher Lai Ye."”
" Bang!" A dull sound rang out, and a cloud of dust rose from the water gate and Kakashi's face. Then, they saw Zirai standing in front of them with his hands on his hips. His face had his signature wild expression." Yo, Water Gate. As expected of my most beloved disciple. You've discovered me so quickly."”
"Huh? Teacher Lai Ye, you suddenly came to look for me. Could it be something good?”Shui Men said with a drooping face.
"Ah, that, this, hahaha…"
" What?!" Watergate and Kakashi also stammered after listening to Selai, before shouting in unison.
" Ah…" Shui Men raised his head and rubbed his face helplessly.
"That's too lame, Lord Selaiya. Is this also considered one of the legendary three ninjas? He was actually eavesdropped by the consultant without knowing it!”Kakashi berated with an arrogant look that made Zilai furious.
"Kakaka, that's enough. Kakashi, just how much do you want to underestimate me? If it wasn't for the water gate, would you have found me?”Laughing, he spread his legs and pointed at Kakashi.
"Ah ah, although I don't know when Lord Selaiya arrived, but when teacher mentioned the six seals, Lord Selaiya should have already arrived. After hearing the shocking news, he couldn't maintain his calm. Seriously, ever since teacher returned, he realized that Lord Selaiya was far less reliable than the legends.”Kakashi spread out his hands and said with a helpless expression.
" You, you brat…" Zilai Ye raised his eyebrows as he pointed at Kakashi. He was momentarily speechless.
"Hehe, don't say that. Teacher Kuraiya is very reliable at critical times. Moreover, Teacher Kuraiya taught me the great ninja path.”Looking at the old and young, Shui Men quickly waved his hand to stop the two from arguing and acted as a peacemaker.
"However, Kakashi, your personality isn't like what the intelligence reports say. Instead, it's a little similar to your personality before Daitu's accident. Is it because of me? Hehe, no matter what, this was a good thing. After all, it was not a good habit to be listless all day.”Shui Men thought to himself.
In fact, Watergate was right. Kakashi's change in personality was indeed related to him. The death of Dearmond had caused a huge change in Kakashi's personality, but it was hard to say whether he had benefited more or suffered more. On one hand, Kakashi had been infected with some of Dearmond's bad habits, but on the other hand, Kakashi had also walked out of the self-imposed barriers caused by the death of his father, White Tooth. However, Watergate's death and Lin's death dealt a heavy blow to Kakashi. From then on, Kakashi was not interested in other things and had some bad habits. Kakashi's most cherished companions left one by one, and the idol he worshipped also left him. All of a sudden, he had lost his life's purpose and motivation. He had the idea of muddling along, and he walked through the years like he was dreaming. It wasn't until he took in Naruto Sasuke and Sakura as his disciples that Kakashi's life slowly became interesting. However, the bond between him and the three of them was still not enough to make up for the damage he had suffered before. At this time, the water gate appeared. No one knew how excited Kakashi was when his teacher, who had died, suddenly appeared. That excitement was no less than that of Selaiya. It was just that Kakashi was more rational and was not good at expressing his emotions, so he had enough rationality to doubt the water gate and analyze the thoughts of the water gate. Even so, the excitement in Kakashi's heart leaked out uncontrollably, and the change in his personality was a concrete manifestation of this excitement.
"Ah, what do we do now, Watergate? If you want to go to the Vortex Country, those two old fellows will definitely not agree. After all, you are so far away from Muye, and you have the Nine-Tailed Chakra.”，Zirai asked about the water gate in distress.
"Well, there's no other way. Because I still have some things to deal with in Muye, I can only agree to them for the time being. As long as the matter with Muye was over, even Sorry would have to leave by force. However, the words of the Dark Group can't stop me.”Watergate said helplessly.
"..." Zirai looked at Shuimen's helpless but relaxed expression. After a moment of silence, he said," There's one more thing I'm worried about. Can you withstand Nine-Tailed's consciousness erosion without the protection of your body?" That old man Mito said that even in her slumber, the Nine-Tailed Dragon will still invade your consciousness. Do you feel that there is something wrong with the water gate?”
"Oh, this question? Haha, don't worry. After all, I've been with Nine-Tailed Morning and Evening for thirteen years. I'm well aware of its tricks. If I was conscious, I would still be afraid. After all, he also knows me very well. " But if it's just an instinctive consciousness erosion, it won't pose a threat." Watergate was slightly stunned, then shook his head and smiled." Well, in that case, let's go to Naruto's office and see what kind of Dark Group the two advisors will send." Is Kakashi coming too?"
"Ah, it just so happens that I have a mission to take on too. Let's go together.”Kakashi replied.
It was not late yet, and the three of them were not in a hurry. Moreover, considering that Mito Kaimon and Xiao Chun would probably need some time to arrange the Dark Group, the three of them strolled towards the Fire Shadow Room.
"Ah, right, is teacher going to the Vortex Country alone?”Kakashi asked.
"That's not it. I might have to bring someone along.”Water Gate.
"Oh, Naruto?" Zi Lai also interrupted.
" No." Watergate shook his head and stretched." I haven't decided yet. We'll talk about it when the time comes."”
Kakashi turned his head to look at the water gate and thought to himself,""If it's not Naruto, could it be him? Forget it, it didn't matter anyway. Maybe Teacher really hasn't decided yet."
Kakashi walked side by side from left to right, chatting casually and occasionally letting out a knowing chuckle, enjoying the warm moment that was not easy for a ninja. Under the setting sun, he pulled out three long shadows.
