A Brief Warm Daily Life

Naruto had seen the Hokage and was quite familiar with Kakashi.

This was a person who had experienced darkness and gradually lost hope in life.

His outward appearance was that of extreme apathy, indifferent to everything. He didn't even know that his teacher and a child were still alive. If it weren't for his friend Guy's concern, he might have turned to the dark side long ago.

It wasn't until he met the three students of Team 7, taking care of his teacher's child Naruto, an Uchiha clansman Sasuke of an old friend, and Sakura, who was basically a freebie, that he gradually found some redemption.

In the manga, he was actually quite good to Naruto. Knowing that his foundation was poor, he demonstrated the usage of the basic Three Body Technique when they were trying to snatch the bells, and he also taught him how to climb trees in the Land of Waves to make up for his lack of fundamentals.

If Jiraiya hadn't taken over the responsibility of being Naruto's teacher during the Chunin Exams after they returned to the village, Kakashi would have taught him some ninjutsu after making up for his lack of fundamentals.

The reason he didn't teach him earlier was because Naruto wouldn't have been able to learn it even if he had taught him.

And in some later missions and crises, Kakashi also protected Naruto, placing great importance on his safety.

In addition, in reality, after the Uchiha clan massacre that night and today's contact, Kakashi had been worried about Naruto all along.

Therefore, Naruto, who had received the other party's kindness, had a good impression of Kakashi.

Especially when the other party stopped his friend Guy, who could open the Eight Gates, during the Chunin Exams two years later.

The fact that the two of them were fighting weak Otogakure ninja and slacking off while watching Sarutobi Hiruzen's death was an ultimate bonus in Naruto's eyes.

Because he knew Kakashi relatively well, Naruto knew that he actually had a decent cooking skill.

After all, after Kakashi's father, Sakumo Hatake, passed away when he was young, he was also alone and could only take care of himself, especially skilled at pan-frying river fish, a dish he narcissistically named Kakashi Style.

Sasuke was different. So far, his understanding of Kakashi was only that he was a disciple of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and an elite Jonin who had just retired from the Anbu.

Therefore, he cast a suspicious look at Kakashi, who claimed he was going to make a table full of delicious food.

Although Sasuke himself couldn't cook, he could eat!

Especially since Sasuke had been eating the delicacies made by his mother, Mikoto, and Naruto for many years, Sasuke's palate was relatively picky.

Faced with Sasuke's suspicion, Kakashi didn't care and said confidently, "Alright, Sasuke, you and Naruto go prepare the bedding and daily necessities. I'll go buy cooking utensils, seasonings, and ingredients. Today, I'll let you see what Kakashi-style cuisine is all about."

Sasuke agreed with some skepticism, and then he and Naruto went out, along with a Shadow Clone, to move Naruto's few clothes and bedding from the small apartment he had lived in before.

After that, he and Naruto went to buy some missing daily necessities.

When they returned home, Kakashi had already prepared dinner, just like he said, a table full of delicious food.

The indispensable pan-fried river fish, as well as Salmon Sushi, King Crab, Sukiyaki Beef Hot Pot, and various ingredients to be cooked on the side, looked and smelled delicious, making people's appetites soar.

"Come on, taste my masterpiece, I guarantee it will shock you."

Kakashi smiled and beckoned Naruto and Sasuke to sit down at the table, got them juice, bowls, and chopsticks, and got himself a pot of wine.

Although this table cost him a lot of money tonight, he was happy at the moment, so there was no need to care.

Sasuke took a bite of the pan-fried river fish, his eyes widened slightly, and some of his previous doubts about Kakashi disappeared in an instant. He said in surprise, "It's really delicious, Kakashi, you weren't bragging."

Naruto took a bite, and it was indeed good.

Although it wasn't as delicious as what he made after releasing his full cooking skills, it had at least reached his normal level.

After Sasuke said this with emotion, he, who had been hungry for half a day, began to feast without hesitation.

While Naruto was eating bit by bit, he stared at Kakashi's face hidden beneath his mask.

Kakashi didn't mind Naruto's gaze, and without hesitation, he pulled down his mask, adjusted his forehead protector, revealing a young and handsome face.

He had a beauty mark at the corner of his mouth, and a scar over his left eye slightly marred his handsomeness, adding a bit of ruggedness. Within the scarred eye socket was a Sharingan eye with three tomoe that couldn't be turned off.

He picked up his chopsticks, ate a piece of beef, and then contentedly poured himself a glass of wine and sipped it.

"Tch, manga is indeed manga. In reality, a group of people eating together definitely can't maintain an air of mystery." Seeing Kakashi's face so easily made Naruto feel a bit bored.

Compared to the anime where Kakashi's true face was a mystery for hundreds of episodes, only revealed in episode 689, seeing it so easily now was indeed a bit underwhelming.

Perhaps, this is why the rewards after experiencing many difficulties are so cherished.

Compared to Naruto's boredom, Sasuke, who was eating, paused, his expression turning cold. His pair of dark eyes silently transformed into Two-Tomoe Sharingan.

"Where did you get that eye?" Sasuke asked coldly.

He was certain that there was no one named Kakashi in the Uchiha clan, and this person's name wasn't Uchiha either, meaning his eyes weren't originally his.

"Well, don't be so tense. This was given to me by a good friend of mine before he passed away. He hoped I would use his eyes to see the world more clearly."

Putting down his wine glass, Kakashi touched his eye socket, sighing with emotion.

Then, the emotion on his face disappeared, and he smiled, "As for the story about my friend, I'll tell you about it next time."

Hearing this, Sasuke's guard lessened slightly, and he subconsciously turned his gaze to Naruto.

Naruto nodded slightly, eating beef as he explained, "I saw information about this Kakashi-sensei in the history books in the Konoha Library. He and my father destroyed the Kannabi Bridge together, ending the Third Shinobi World War early.

He had a friend named Obito Uchiha, who was also my father's student, but he died in that battle. It should be that Obito who gave him the eye before he died."

Naruto spoke the name Obito without any emotion in his voice.

Only in his heart, a bone-chilling killing intent echoed.

Kakashi met Sasuke's gaze and nodded in confirmation.

"I see..."

Sasuke responded softly, deactivated his Sharingan, and continued to eat in silence, lost in thought.

Naruto, on the other hand, was chatting with Kakashi about some daily trivial matters regarding his father, Minato Namikaze, and Kakashi's other teammates.

Before long, Sasuke emerged from his gloom and joined in with interest.

Time passed in this somewhat warm atmosphere.

The next day, Naruto began his daily arduous training again.
