Thinking about this, he really didn't know what to say, and could only silently look up at the sky.
[Ding! Kakashi Hatake's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +200!]
Just as Kakashi was shaking his head in a somewhat amused and exasperated manner, he paused, suddenly realizing a serious problem.
He wasn't the only one having this dream!
Outside of the dream, those three little devils from Class 7 are glued to the screen watching the show!
Upon thinking of this, Kakashi felt a chill run down his spine and knew he was in trouble. He quickly coughed a few times and interrupted, "Cough cough—who wants to see your little acorn! Hurry up and put your clothes on!"
Might Guy froze upon hearing this, his face flushing red instantly. He hurriedly pulled up his pants and angrily yelled at Kakashi, "Kakashi!!!"
in the audience.
The three young spectators once again turned their gazes to Matt Kai, their expressions even more subtle than before.
Unexpectedly, this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes...
When I was a kid, I actually dragged Kakashi-sensei into a sparring match!
"I never imagined that Guy-sensei would compete with Kakashi-sensei in this kind of thing when they were kids."
Sakura blushed and muttered incredulously, "I couldn't tell at all!"
Matt Kai felt his face burning from being stared at by several strange gazes, wishing he could disappear into the ground.
He was watching with great interest, hoping to see Kakashi's embarrassing past.
Unexpectedly, his dark past was exposed to the students in the blink of an eye.
Matt Kai gave a strained thumbs-up and forced a dry laugh: "This...this is youth too!"
The tense atmosphere that had just been palpable on the screen vanished instantly.
Suddenly, Might Guy let out a long sigh of relief, walked up to Kakashi, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a simple smile, "This is the Kakashi I know! You've been silent the whole way here, and I was worried."
"What are you worried about?" Kakashi frowned slightly and asked subconsciously.
Matt Kai scratched his head and stammered, "I...I'm just worried about what the villagers will think."
Kakashi immediately pictured the expression on Sakumo Hatake's face as he sighed softly.
A strong sense of crisis suddenly welled up in my heart: Could it be?!
[Ding! Kakashi Hatake's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +500!]
"not good!"
Kakashi's expression changed drastically. Without thinking, he turned around and became a blur, sprinting towards home, leaving Might Guy, who was still standing there bewildered, far behind.
Kakashi pushed his speed to its limit, and a silver blur flashed across the village.
He would sometimes run swiftly along the streets and alleys, and sometimes leap onto the rooftops in a few bounds, traversing rooftops and walls, stirring up large clouds of dust and fallen leaves wherever he went.
Occasionally, pedestrians along the roadside were startled by the sudden gust of wind and took a few steps back, then began to whisper among themselves: "Isn't that Konoha's White Fang's son—"
"I heard his dad messed up a big mission—"
The few words that reached Kakashi's ears only intensified his anxiety and unease.
In the audience, Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Sakura Haruno were all startled.
They looked at each other, completely bewildered.
"What's wrong with Kakashi-sensei? Why did he suddenly start running?"
Sakura asked nervously.
Might Guy watched Kakashi's departing figure on the screen, his smile slowly fading, his expression turning serious.
He sighed softly and said to the three children in a deep voice, "Well, here's the thing. Do you know the story of Kakashi's father, Sakumo Hatake, the White Fang of Konoha?"
The three young viewers in front of the screen immediately perked up their ears and listened intently.
"Kakashi's father, Hatake Sakumo, was a master who struck fear into the entire ninja world. He was known as the 'White Fang of Konoha.' In those days, Konoha Village placed great importance on the completion rate of missions. There was even a saying that 'In the world of ninjas, those who break the rules are trash!'"
However, during a mission, Kakashi's father violated the rules in an attempt to save his teammates who were in danger, causing the mission to fail and resulting in huge losses for the Land of Fire.
For those who only cared about the success or failure of the mission at the time, this was an unforgivable sin, and many villagers and Jonin directed their anger at his father.
He had saved his teammates, but when he returned to the village, he was blamed by many villagers, and even the companions he had saved turned around and accused him.
These successive blows left the once spirited Lord White Fang disheartened, and ultimately, in endless isolation and despair, he chose suicide.
As Matt Kai spoke, his face was filled with sorrow and grief.
The three students from Class 7 were even more astonished upon hearing this, their eyes filled with disbelief.

"W-what?!"
Sakura's pretty face turned pale. "I can't believe such a thing exists—"
Naruto clenched his fists, stood up excitedly, and shouted, "How could saving our comrades be wrong! Even if the mission fails, I will never abandon Sasuke and Sakura!"
Sasuke initially nodded in agreement, but when Naruto brought him into the conversation, he rolled his eyes in exasperation: "That's more like me saying that! It's never been me who saves you!"
Just then, the scene on the screen suddenly changed, drawing everyone's attention back to the present.
On the screen, the gate of the Hatake residence in Konoha Village was suddenly kicked open, and the young Kakashi rushed into the house, panting heavily!
He ran all the way home, his heart pounding in his chest, large beads of sweat sliding down his cheeks.
Before Kakashi could catch his breath, he slammed his foot into the room with a loud bang. The room was dimly lit, and the air was thick with a suffocating atmosphere.
Kakashi's gaze swept quickly across the room and immediately locked onto the familiar figure sitting at the low table in the living room.
Sakumo Hatake was dressed in full regalia, even wearing a ninja vest and Konoha headband. He was staring blankly at the white-bladed short sword he never parted with on the table, his whole body motionless like a stone statue, looking even more haggard and forlorn than in the morning.
The sudden loud noise brought Hatake Sakumo to his senses.
He turned his head and saw Kakashi returning home. A hint of surprise and panic flashed in his previously calm eyes: "Kakashi!"
What's wrong with you—?
Kakashi was panting heavily, and he saw a hint of embarrassment on his father's face.
As expected, this was the crucial moment when the father was preparing to commit suicide.
Thankfully, he made it in time!
[Ding! Kakashi Hatake's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +300!]
Kakashi took two deep breaths, strode forward, and shouted sharply, his eyes red, "Father! What are you planning to do?!"
Sakumo Hatake opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.
He couldn't very well tell his young son that he was going to die, could he?
Young Kakashi's voice, though still childish, was unusually firm: "Father! I think you did the right thing! They're the ones who are wrong!"
Sakumo Hatake's expression shifted from surprise to pain and self-reproach, and he remained silent.
In the past, even if Kakashi, at only five years old, witnessed his father's suicide attempt, he would have been powerless to change anything.
However, standing here now is Kakashi Hatake, who has returned from more than a decade later.
Having experienced the life-and-death separation from Tu Zi Ge, he has a profound understanding of all this that far surpasses that of ordinary people!
A flicker of reminiscence crossed Kakashi's eyes, then his expression hardened: "A close friend once told me that he believed you, Father, were the true hero! Although in the ninja world, those who break the rules are called trash, those who don't cherish their comrades are even worse than trash!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the room fell into a deathly silence, so quiet that the only sound could be the rustling of leaves in the breeze outside the window.
Sakumo Hatake stared wide-eyed, frozen in place as if struck by lightning, his throat bobbing but no sound coming out.
[This time, the dream-fulfilling recipient is: Kakashi Hatake]
[Viewers: Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno, Sasuke Uchiha, Might Guy]
[Total Emotion Points Gain: 35200!]
[Current sentiment score balance: 434861 points!]
[Current Dream Fulfillment Level: 5 (489361/500000)]
Shi Yu looked at the emotion value balance of 434861 points on the panel.
He nodded in satisfaction.
It worked really well.
Shigure had clearly given this decision, carefully considering the timing of choosing this point in time as the starting point for the new instance.
Kakashi is different from Naruto and Sasuke.
Although Naruto and Sasuke have both experienced major life changes, they are still young and each has only one key turning point. In fact, their experiences are similar in some ways. By simply shifting a point on their timelines, their life trajectories can be completely different.
But Kakashi was different. Kakashi had far too many regrets in his life.
With his father's suicide, his best friend's sacrifice, his childhood friend's execution, and his mentor's death, it's clearly not enough to completely reverse Kakashi's life and bring about earth-shattering changes simply by altering a single point in time.
It would be better to simply let him go back to the beginning and start over.
The most powerful emotional force would be to let Kakashi personally experience those regrets again and try to change everything.
A glint of anticipation flashed in Shi Yu's eyes as she began to plan what would happen next.
