Naruto: Konoha Silver Wolf

Chapter 7: Let's Think About it



Homura and Koharu immediately recognized the potential trouble that Kakashi possessing a Uchiha Sharingan could bring.

Hearing the advisors' concerns, Minato's expression subtly changed.

Kakashi, however, remained calm, quietly observing the Third Hokage and the two advisors. He knew he would ultimately retain the Sharingan. Minato and the Third Hokage would support his possession of it, so there was no need to worry.

To Kakashi, the Third Hokage appeared younger and more authoritative than when the storyline began, yet still approachable.

"This was Uchiha Obito's dying wish for Kakashi. Obito is a hero of Konoha; we must honor his will," the Third Hokage spoke, prioritizing the deceased's wishes over potential issues.

"Kakashi, let me ask you. Do you want to return Obito's Sharingan to the Uchiha clan, or..."

Before the Third Hokage could finish, Kakashi raised his head and responded firmly, "Lord Hokage, I want to live on, protecting Obito's eye."

The Third Hokage smiled at Kakashi's resolute answer.

"No!"

"Kakashi, you're just a child who knows nothing..."

Koharu's expression changed, feeling her authority challenged by Kakashi. She coldly rebuked him.

"I'm already a Jonin of Konoha! I'm not a child anymore!" Kakashi interrupted her firmly, using his rank to counter her.

"You..."

"See, I told you Kakashi was too young to be promoted to Jonin. He doesn't even respect his elders," Koharu exclaimed, her face red with anger. She hadn't expected Kakashi to use his Jonin status against her.

Understanding the Third Hokage's stance, Homura didn't say much, but he agreed with Koharu. "Promoting someone so young to Jonin could make him arrogant. We should revoke his promotion, especially since it hasn't been publicly announced."

"Lord Homura, Lady Koharu..."

Minato quickly spoke up, knowing that Kakashi's possession of the Sharingan had made the two advisors envious, hence their reaction.

"There's no need to say more. Kakashi, indeed, has the strength and ability of a Jonin. His promotion will stand," the Third Hokage stated decisively. "As for the Sharingan, as long as Kakashi agrees to keep it a secret, everything will be fine. I'll handle the matter with Uchiha Fugaku."

Hearing the Third Hokage's firm decision, Koharu and Homura had to remain silent, their expressions complex.

Kakashi internally mocked their reactions but maintained a neutral expression, avoiding further conflict.

"Minato, go and invite the Uchiha clan head, Uchiha Fugaku," the Third Hokage instructed.

"Yes, Lord Hokage," Minato replied with a smile, feeling relieved that the Third Hokage supported Kakashi having the Sharingan. He used the Body Flicker Technique to leave.

"Let me see your Sharingan, Kakashi," the Third Hokage said once Minato had left, as he hadn't yet seen Kakashi's new eye.

"Yes, Lord Hokage," Kakashi replied, lifting his headband to reveal his left Sharingan. Immediately, he felt his chakra drain faster.

"Double tomoe Sharingan..."

"It is a Sharingan..."

Homura and Koharu were stunned, even though they knew about it. Seeing the Uchiha clan's eye successfully transplanted was still shocking, and their envy grew stronger.

"Hehe, the Sharingan suits you well, Kakashi," the Third Hokage remarked gently, feeling proud rather than envious.

"It does look pretty cool!"

"Now, let's think about how to deal with Uchiha Fugaku," Koharu and Homura said, accepting the Third Hokage's decision and beginning to strategize.

A moment later, Minato returned to the Hokage's office.

"Lord Hokage, the Uchiha clan head, is coming and will be here soon."
