The Naruto fan war has given the Uchiha clan a huge shock.

Chapter 363 Sakura Haruno's Soldier's Rations

Chapter 363 Sakura Haruno's Soldier's Rations

The others stared at Kakashi in disbelief.

A hint of longing flickered in the eyes of Rin Nohara and Itachi Uchiha.

People complain every day: "Kakashi-sensei actually has this kind of interest? Shouldn't he at least pay attention to his blood sugar?"

Why blood sugar?

All I saw was—

On Kakashi's signature silver hair, a huge pink and white strawberry parfait cup was perched crookedly, with condensation still clinging to the sides. His dominant left hand not only held a 1-liter carton of strawberry milk, but also held three different strawberry-flavored Pocky sticks between his fingers.

This is not over yet!

In the crook of his right arm, he held a long loaf of bread, its surface almost overflowing with red bean paste. Under his left arm, he tucked a freshly opened box of strawberry-flavored fruit candies, sprinkled with powdered sugar.

Her waist was draped with individual boxes of strawberry milk by a rope, and her ninja tool bag on her back was bulging, overflowing with strawberry dumplings and mini strawberry cakes.

"I never knew Kakashi-sensei that you liked sweets that only girls like!" Naruto pointed at the bright pink desserts in Kakashi's arms, seemingly having gained a new understanding of him.

Sasuke, standing nearby, had already turned his face away in disgust, his brows furrowed. Just smelling that sweet, cloying scent made his stomach churn.

Sweets and natto are the two foods he hates the most!

Ibiki Morino gave Kakashi, who was practically a walking dessert station, a strange look in his eyes, and asked out of concern, "Are you sure your blood sugar is okay?" Moreover, all of them were strawberry flavored, and the degree of his obsession was simply incomprehensible.

"How come I didn't know you were a strawberry fanatic?" Obito Uchiha's confused voice came through.

He clearly remembered that it was Lin who liked strawberry cake! This isn't some melodramatic soap opera with a stand-in! There's no way he could be mistaken!

Lin walked forward with a smile and helped Kakashi take down the super-duper-duper-duper-duper-duper-strawberry parfait that was on his head.

"It seems Kakashi has been through quite a lot over there too~"

"Thank you, Rin." Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief.

It was a shame that such a big strawberry parfait cup fell off his head, but he simply didn't have either hand free to take it off.

"You don't mind if I share it with Sakura and Obito, do you?" Rin held up the Buffet and looked at Kakashi with a sweet smile.

Sakura's eyes lit up when she heard that she could eat so many strawberry parfaits.

Obito wanted to refuse, but the Buffet cup was half the size of a person, and Rin definitely couldn't finish it alone. Moreover, Kakashi didn't give him a chance to refuse.

"I'm perfectly fine." Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief and stuffed all the pink, cloyingly sweet things in his hands and body into the hands of Obito, who was still in a daze, and Itachi Uchiha, a dessert lover who was staring longingly at the desserts.

"Take them all, I'm actually a fan of 'salty' stuff."

Kakashi stretched his finally freed hands, his tone returning to its usual languidness, "Just looking at these things makes me feel like my blood sugar is about to spike to its limit."

Sasuke asked impatiently, "What have you been doing for the past twenty minutes? Where did you get all this cloyingly sweet stuff?"

"well----"

Upon hearing this, Kakashi sighed deeply, his signature dead fish eyes revealing his helplessness.

"Well—" He scratched his silver hair, which was slightly deformed by the strawberry parfait cup, his tone filled with deep weariness, "I went to—a very 'passionate' place."

"A very welcoming place?"

Complex emotions surfaced in Kakashi's dead fish eyes.

"It seemed like a world where you could communicate with sweets. There was an orange-haired, super-strong woman who kept calling me a poor bastard while stuffing Buffet into my arms. A bespectacled boy lectured me with red bean bread. Even a dog insisted on buying me strawberry milk. Oh, and there was also a one-eyed samurai holding up banknotes and saying he wanted to take care of me after I mutated."

He looked helplessly at the strawberry dessert that had already been delivered to Obito: "In their eyes, I'm probably an amnesiac patient who needs sugar to awaken his memories."

,"Um----"

The ninjas were ashamed; what kind of world was that?

Sasuke couldn't even imagine what it would have been like if he, someone who hated sweets, had lived in the past; he would probably have starved to death or died from the sweetness.

"It seems like a pretty good world."

"ah?!"

Naruto and Sakura looked at the speaker in surprise, only to find that it was Sasuke's older brother, Uchiha Itachi.

Just how much do they love sweets?

Minato Namikaze arrived using the Flying Thunder God Technique. After quickly assessing the situation, he analyzed, "It seems our previous understanding was flawed. This ability to 'randomly change faces after removing the mask' isn't a simple transformation technique; it's a complete swap between Kakashi and a character from another world."

"If we want Kakashi to switch back with the other characters who came to the ninja world, the person who is to be swapped with Kakashi needs to wear a mask like Kakashi."

Naruto exclaimed excitedly, "This sounds like so much fun! Doesn't this mean Kakashi-sensei can travel freely between different worlds? He's even more powerful than the Otsutsuki clan!!"

The Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, restrained the excited Naruto and warned Kakashi, "This ability comes with a great deal of randomness. If the person who replaced Kakashi here is an extremely evil person, or if Kakashi is sent to an extremely dangerous world, it could lead to unpredictable and unimaginable consequences."

Kakashi had considered this possibility before returning from the other world, and his initial tension had subsided, but everyone else seemed quite startled.

"How are Kakashi-sensei going to eat from now on?!" Naruto waved his arms frantically. "He can't possibly eat while wearing a mask, can he? Are we going to have someone else eat here in Kakashi-sensei's place while Kakashi-sensei eats that person's food in another world?!"

"Idiot! Do you think this is a lunch exchange at the ninja academy?!" Sasuke couldn't help but scold Naruto.

Naruto seemed even more anxious than Kakashi, saying, "But! But I'm saying! If we don't do this, won't Kakashi-sensei starve to death?"

'

"Calm down, Naruto," Kakashi reassured him. "There'll always be a way. At least we don't need to take off our masks to stuff the soldier rations in."

"Oh! Right!" Naruto's head seemed to have a lightbulb going off, and his intelligence seemed to jump up with it. "Sakura! Please make some more soldier pills for Kakashi-sensei! Otherwise, I'm still worried about him."

"No problem!" Sakura accepted the task without hesitation.

Kakashi's face turned ashen when he thought of the soldier pills Sakura made.

Although Sasuke had never tasted Sakura's soldier rations, he had seen comments in the live stream describing it as "tasting all the joys and sorrows of life with just one bite"—

[Hardness Assessment: Comparable to the Raikage's Lightning Release Armor.]

[Taste review: Sand from Sunagakure is mixed with mud from Konoha.]

[Taste Review: The top note is the metallic feel of rusty concrete; the middle note is the pungent, fishy stench of expired dried fish; and the base note is a bitterness more despairing than the eight bitter experiences of life.]

[Effect Evaluation: Chakra restored by 5%, mental trauma level increased by 300%.]

[Side effects list: Temporary hearing loss, loss of taste, accompanied by out-of-body experiences and a strong urge for philosophical contemplation.]

[Best way to consume: Grind into powder, mix with water, and then have someone else drink it.]

[Best before expiration date: Discard after the expiration date.]

The texture is distinct, with an outer shell resembling dried wall plaster and an inner filling of concentrated coptis juice.

[Buyer's Review: Funeral Photos.jpg]

[Can that thing really restore chakra, instead of depleting chakra to digest it?]

[The superhuman strength grinding technique personally taught by Tsunade, and the poisoning of a hundred herbs.]

[It's said that after eating it, you'll see a carousel-like effect —]

One bite, and it's as if the Sage of Six Paths is beckoning to you.

[The true team trial of Class 7: Sharing a bag of soldier rations made by Sakura.]

[Legendary Item: Consuming this item inflicts a permanent "loss of taste" debuff.]

The impact on the soul is greater than being struck by Kotoamatsukami.

[Eating one didn't increase my health bar, but it did deplete my sanity.]

all in all----

When people who knew Kakashi heard that because of this wish, Kakashi was unable to eat normally, they didn't feel much sympathy.

On the contrary, upon hearing that his three meals a day would be provided by Sakura Haruno's specially made soldier rations, the others seemed to have already planned out Kakashi's funeral arrangements—

Because the mirror wasn't with Kakashi, other timelines were unaware that Kakashi in the "Valley of the End 2.0 timeline" had already "tasted hundreds of herbs" (a metaphor for Kakashi's past achievements). Kakashi in those other timelines was still wavering and struggling with his choices.

In the Boruto timeline, Kakashi Hatake, Might Guy, and Mirai Sarutobi had just crossed the border between the Land of Hot Water and the Land of Fire when a sudden voice startled Kakashi!

The figure that was darting through the treetops suddenly stopped. The retired Sixth Hokage, Kakashi Hatake, knelt on one knee on a thick branch, his left hand gripping the trunk beside him, intently listening to the ten options echoing in his mind.

Because of the mirror connecting to the main world (the Fourth Shinobi World War timeline), the Sixth Hokage Kakashi in this Boruto timeline, beside the Seventh Hokage Naruto, Sasuke, and the resurrected Obito at the Valley of the End in Konoha, had no idea which wishes Kakashi chose in the Fourth Shinobi World War, or what consequences those wishes had.

"Kakashi—" Might Guy and Sarutobi Mirai stood on a nearby tree branch.

Upon hearing the conditions for the wish that could revive Obito, Rin, and the Fourth Hokage, both looked at Kakashi with concern.

After hesitating for more than ten minutes, urged on by the barrage of comments, Kakashi asked some questions and then made a wish.

["Confirming the Boruto timeline"—Kakashi's wish:"]

"Seven, Obito Uchiha's permanent right to use the Sharingan."

[Nine, gaining a passive skill that forces a 50/50 matchup.]

[10. To have a son and a daughter.]

Upon hearing his wish, Might Guy looked at Kakashi and asked in a deep voice, "Is this really a good idea, Kakashi?"

For decades-long best friends, some things don't need to be said; a single glance is enough.

Kakashi naturally understood Guy's unfinished question: why not revive Obito and Rin, as well as Naruto's parents.

"That was a long time ago." Kakashi gazed into the distance, his mind filled with the various pieces of information revealed in the comments. "Compared to dwelling on past battles, future enemies will only be more troublesome."

Of course, he had deeper considerations as well.

Obito was, after all, the mastermind behind the Fourth Shinobi World War, and resurrecting him rashly would inevitably bring enormous political pressure to the current Hokage, Naruto. If only Rin were resurrected, leaving Obito alone in the Pure Land, it would seem impossible to fulfill Obito's parting words, "Let us have some more time together."

Moreover, Rin, Minato-sensei, and Kushina-nee might not be able to adapt to this completely new world that is more than thirty years old.

In comparison, restoring the power of "Sharingan Kakashi," regaining the strength to contend with Kaguya Otsutsuki, and the "50/50" quality to hold his own against any powerful enemy are more important at the moment.

As for his two children—

Sarutobi Mirai was carefully helping Kakashi hold one of the children. Her meticulous expression made her seem more like a student personally taught by Might Guy than a disciple of Nara Shikamaru.

"I thought the Sixth Boss would choose to go to the world of 'Make-Out Paradise'," Mirai asked earnestly. "After all, didn't you come to the Land of Hot Springs this time to do a pilgrimage to the sacred sites?"

Kakashi didn't reveal his true thoughts, simply brushing it off in his usual lazy tone: "After all, I'm at this age now, and it's perfectly reasonable to want a couple of adorable kids by my side, isn't it?"

In addition to the initial ten timelines, there are also the Third Shinobi World War timeline, which focuses on Minato's team, as well as the Sengoku period timeline and the village founding timeline, which focus on Hashirama, Tobirama, and Madara.

Kannabihashi Timeline —

Twelve-year-old Kakashi had already decided on his wish, and his first wish was to revive his father, Sakumo Hatake.

As for his other wishes, he didn't want to choose any of them.

then----

[Kakashi's wish in "Confirming the Kannabi Bridge Timeline":]

"First, revive Obito Uchiha."

"Second, revive Nohara Rin."

"Part Three: Revive Hatake Sakumo."

Obito and Rin, who were already alive, were standing next to Kakashi. The so-called "appearing in full condition in front of Kakashi" was just a matter of moving their coordinates closer to Kakashi, almost causing a classic head-bumping blunder like Naruto and Sasuke.

Sakumo Hatake's resurrection followed the same procedure as before: the standard package of Impure World Reincarnation plus Reincarnation.

When the dust settled, the white-haired man opened his eyes in a daze. Before he could even process what was happening, a figure came into view.

"Father----"

Young Kakashi gave a soft call and took a step forward. His voice, hidden behind the mask, seemed to contain a barely perceptible tremor.

Looking at his son, who was both strange and familiar, Sakumo was filled with mixed emotions. He was about to speak when he called out, "Kakashi—"

"Ugh—!!"

The next second, something happened that caught everyone completely off guard!

The usually calm and precocious boy imitated the classic meme from the bullet screen: "Hug your mom when you see your mom, punch your dad when you see your dad." He poured all his strength into his fist and delivered a solid punch to the abdomen of his newly resurrected father, Sakumo Hatake!

This punch was ruthless and precise, carrying with it the pent-up grievances and confusion of too long.

The force and stance were so familiar. Naruto, in his Fourth Shinobi World War, scratched the back of his head and chuckled sheepishly, "Isn't this what I did the first time I met my dad? Hahaha, I never thought Kakashi-sensei from when he was a kid would do that too!"

Kakashi in his fourth World War: "————"

The barrage of comments still has a profound impact on the ninja world.

In essence, Naruto indirectly corrupted children like Gaara and Kakashi.

Sakumo Hatake, unable to hide his pain, managed to ask, "Kakashi—why—"

Young Kakashi, panting heavily, stared intently at his father, who was doubled over in agony, his voice carrying a deliberately restrained calm: "This punch—is for that stupid father who abandoned me without permission—who couldn't bear the gossip and chose to die alone!"

"Sorry, Kakashi."

Sakumo Hatake recalls his mission from back then —

That was an extremely important mission for Konoha Village and even the Land of Fire. Due to the mistake of their teammates, they were all plunged into a great crisis.

As the squad leader, should he prioritize the national interest over his comrades' lives, or save his comrades and abandon the mission?

Abandoning the mission would mean disregarding the safety of the village and the country.

But if he continued the mission, he couldn't just ignore his injured comrade who was looking at him with fear in his eyes.

"At that time, I wanted to take a gamble and see if I could have both."

But not everyone is a protagonist, and fate doesn't favor everyone.

at last----

Although he saved his companions, he damaged the village's reputation, and the Land of Fire was successfully conquered by another country, losing a fertile piece of land.

"It's not that we can't bear the rumors," Hatake Sakumo said, his eyes gentle yet resolute. "We are ninjas after all, and we have to pay the price for our choices. This is a realization we should have when we make our decisions."

"However—" Hatake Sakumo changed the subject, "I'm really sorry to leave you all alone."

He looked at Rin and Obito, who were concerned about Kakashi, and smiled as he thanked them: "Thank you for taking care of Kakashi. He can be a bit blunt sometimes, so it's thanks to you two that you get along with him."

Actually, we don't get along at all!

Obito was thinking to himself, but he couldn't say it out loud. Hearing Rin's polite words, he awkwardly looked away and nodded.

"Rin is fine, but let's forget about Obito."

Obito, assuming the words came from the sharp-tongued Kakashi, was about to turn around and argue with him when he belatedly realized that the voice belonged to Mitarashi Anko!

Red Bean shrugged and said, "The comments all say that, apart from Sakumo's death, almost all the storms in Kakashi's life were brought about by Obito!"

"Comments?" Sakumo Hatake finally had time to pay attention to the text in the sky. "I was just about to ask, what are those things in the sky?"
