"The Hokage is a Jewel, the Daimyo is also a Jewel. Neither of the Two Jewels can be missing!"
Looking at Kakashi, Asuma declared solemnly.
However, he strangely noticed that upon hearing his words, Kakashi showed a look as if his sche had succeeded, finally seeing things unfold just as he predicted. Kakashi shook his head with a peculiar smile.
"Is that so? What a pity, Asuma!"
Kakashi said with a sigh: "So that's what Third Hokage-sama ant. I actually thought he wanted to spare your life! That's why he arranged for us to co."
"It seems Third Hokage-sama might want to use my hand to kill you after all?"
"Asuma, maybe you should run. As your forr classmate, I really can't bring myself to kill you."
Kakashi spoke in a tone bordering on theatrics.
Hearing Kakashi's words, Asuma could hardly believe his ears.
"You said... what?!"
"You said my father... wants to kill ?"
Asuma couldn't believe it… he was furious: "Kakashi, enough with the jokes! I don't want to fight you!"
"Is that so, Asuma? I don't want to fight you either!" Kakashi shrugged indifferently: "But it's the truth! It's only because we're classmates that I'm telling you this… it's actually quite a taboo topic."
"However, since we are classmates, let tell you a bit more."
"Asuma, having been away from Konoha for so long, you obviously don't know that under Soul King-sama's thods, Third Hokage-sama has already regained his youth, right?"
Looking at Asuma's bearded face, Kakashi shook his head regretfully: "Unfortunately, compared to you, Third Hokage-sama seems to be... younger now!"
"So, Third Hokage-sama, having regained his youth, wanting to have a few more sons to raise properly by his side, is sothing I can understand!"
"I think his judgnt is quite correct. After all, if a son is disobedient, I might do the sa if I were in his position!"
Kakashi looked mockingly at Asuma: "What do you think, Asuma?"
"Impossible!" Asuma categorically rejected Kakashi's words: "How could that be? My old man would never do such a thing!"
Asuma had a very clear judgnt… his father was Sarutobi Hiruzen, not Shimura Danzo.
"And what you said about regaining youth, resurrection, or whatever... I don't understand any of it!"
"What Soul King-sama? What unification? Kakashi, explain it more clearly!"
Asuma demanded.
"Tsk tsk!" Looking at Asuma who knew nothing, Kakashi now genuinely felt a headache!
The other party knew nothing, and explaining it all in detail really wasn't his style!
And giving a long-winded explanation was so troubleso.
'Maybe I should just kill him with one slash. After all, the Third really didn't seem to care much about this son anyway!'
'Taking a step back, even if he did care, couldn't he just go beg Soul King-sama to resurrect him later?'
'The boundary between life and death was already blurry nowadays anyway.'
With these thoughts, Kakashi gripped the hilt of his sword.
A sharp, murderous intent locked onto Asuma!
Instantly, Asuma felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his whole body stiff, unable to move!
Looking at Kakashi before him, Asuma was greatly shocked.
He didn't understand how the gap in strength he could once perceive between them had beco like this!
At the sa ti, feeling Kakashi's genuine killing intent, Asuma began to understand his aning a little.
Perhaps what was said about Hiruzen was true!
Realizing this, Asuma broke down ntally!
He struggled fiercely to break free from Kakashi's killing intent, but it was useless.
Seeing this, Chiriku stepped in front of Asuma, wanting to shield his friend!
Looking at Chiriku, Kakashi frowned slightly: "Monk, this has nothing to do with you!"
"Although you are one of the Twelve Guardian Ninja, you are also a monk of the Fire Temple. Leave now, and I'll pretend I saw nothing!"
Kakashi said coldly.
However, hearing Kakashi's words, although Chiriku showed a bitter smile, he did not retreat an inch.
He stood firmly in front of Asuma, his attitude resolute.
Seeing this, Asuma was deeply moved!
Looking at Chiriku, he urged: "Chiriku, leave! This is Konoha's matter, it has nothing to do with you!"
"What he said might be true. You were right, Chiriku. I should have listened to you from the start. I'm sorry, Chiriku. Please leave!"
Asuma pleaded.
But the more he urged, the more Chiriku insisted: "Asuma, we are friends. How can I abandon a friend to save my own skin?"
"Chiriku!" Asuma was imnsely moved.
It looked like another display of brotherly loyalty was about to unfold here.
Thus, Kakashi grew annoyed.
He prepared to slash both of them in half with one strike.
But just as Kakashi was about to draw his blade, a hand covered his.
"Stop, Kakashi."
Sakumo had arrived.
He looked at Asuma ahead: "Asuma, you should recognize , right? When my na, White Fang, was being sung, you were old enough to rember."
"So, can my appearance answer your doubts?"
