Chapter 134 Would you like to come to my house for a visit?
Without hesitation, Yan Yi grasped the other person's hand and smiled.
"Yes, nice to meet you. We're here to invite you to join Konoha."
After Itama shook hands with him, the atmosphere among the three teenagers finally eased completely.
Now that they had revealed their identities and intentions, A-Feng felt that the decision should be made by his father, so he planned to take the two people from Konoha back first.
The Hatake clan has too many enemies, so they have to be careful in everything they do. Before Yan Yi's words are completely confirmed, he cannot be negligent in the slightest, which the two can understand.
Yan Yi explained everything to A Feng the whole way, with Ban Jian adding details from time to time. A Feng, as if listening to a story, slowly came to accept this fact...
The world has really changed! Something so big has really happened in the middle of the forest!
Although Kaede Hatake has a cool demeanor and is not usually good at expressing his emotions, the things Yan Yi told him really surprised him more and more.
He didn't think the other person was lying to him, because there was no reason for it, and the honesty they showed when they spoke couldn't be faked.
Children seem to have an innate, mysterious connection, and Yan Yi... his gaze towards his friend was noticeably gentle. A-Feng even wondered if their relationship was crossing a line between friends.
However, he wouldn't offer any opinions; everyone has their own experiences.
Moreover, the main purpose of their visit was to represent Konoha in searching for the Hatake clan and inviting them to join the village.
Although Ah Feng wanted to agree, it wasn't just that he couldn't make the decision himself; more importantly, he had no way to do so now and lacked the necessary conditions to do so...
However, as I said before, I cannot make this important decision myself and need to go back and discuss it with my father.
......
"Huh? You mean... the Hatake clan is now down to just your family?" Yan Yi almost stumbled and fell off the tree, but luckily A Feng and Ban Ban quickly pulled him back.
"Hmm..." Ah Feng's expression was somewhat heavy, as if he was thinking of unpleasant memories.
Seeing this, Yan Yi decided not to press the matter further. After all, this was a tragic past for their clan, and it would be too offensive to keep asking about it.
"Actually, it's not that we can't talk about it. The reason is quite simple. It's just that we gradually declined during the war, and we had too many enemies. Many of our people died outside."
Ah Feng gazed ahead, calmly recounting those old stories. Although Yan Yi felt a pang of pity upon hearing them, she felt no surprise.
The Hatake clan is very outstanding, often producing geniuses who, even without particularly powerful bloodlines, can still hold their own in the forest.
Their most distinctive feature is their unpredictable swordsmanship, and to unleash the full power of this swordsmanship, besides diligent practice, talent is also essential.
The three hurried on their way, sharing information with each other. Before long, Ah Feng led them to a valley.
“The Hatake clan is now down to just our family, so…” A-Feng said, his voice weakening.
Yan Yi quickly realized what was happening and waved his hand, saying, "Ah, it's okay, I understand! We can just wait here."
Ah Feng nodded, then left Yan Yi and Ban Jian behind, leaping back to the treetop and disappearing from their sight in a few swift movements...
"I never imagined the Hatake clan would become like this..." Itama said with some regret. "I remember when the family's books introduced them, they were said to be very powerful."
"It's truly regrettable... If this clan hadn't declined to the point where only this one family remained, they could definitely have been a great help to the village." Yan Yi's expression didn't show much change, but she also felt a bit regretful.
He had long anticipated that the Hatake clan's situation wouldn't be good, but he hadn't expected that by now only one family remained...
Who is this Ah Feng?
Yan Yi tried to search his memory for anything related to Hatake. If A-Feng didn't have any brothers, then wouldn't he be Kakashi's... uh, grandfather?
After careful recollection, Yan Yi became increasingly certain of this possibility. Although Hatake Sakumo and his son Kakashi didn't have very similar personalities, the possibility of generational inheritance couldn't be ruled out.
Whether it's appearance, personality, or even clothing style and way of speaking, Ah Feng seems to be quite similar to Kakashi.
The two squatted by a stream at the edge of the valley and waited, but they didn't wait long before Ah Feng returned with his father.
"Yan Yi! I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." A-Feng jumped down from the treetop, walked up to the two of them, and introduced, "This is my father."
Swish!
A nimble figure appeared in front of the two in an instant. It was very similar to the feeling when they first met A-Feng. This middle-aged man with white hair seemed a little wary, and his eyes were also scrutinizing.
"Hello, Hatake-senpai..." Yan Yi and Itama greeted each other at the same time, their expressions becoming somewhat reserved.
Just kidding. Although I have great faith in the Hatake clan, the other party is clearly a battle-hardened elite ninja, and the sense of pressure he exerts is still quite significant.
"Hello, my name is Qi Muwangshan." The silver-haired middle-aged man introduced himself while looking at the two little ones in front of him.
Yan Yi was also observing the other person. He had a scar on his left forehead and another on his right chin. His eyes were incredibly sharp, and although restrained, they were dangerous...
Yan Yi's first impression of him was that he was like a sharp blade that had not yet been drawn from its sheath. Compared to him, his son, A Feng, was much more adorable.
Wang Shan quietly looked at the little one in front of him, while his slightly dangerous gaze swept over the surroundings for a moment. Suddenly, he asked with a somewhat ambiguous tone, "Did only the two of you come here this time?"
“Yes.” Yan answered in a second, and said with some emotion, “Banban and I went through a lot of trouble to finally find the old site of the Hatake clan.”
As they spoke, Yan Yi took out the abstract map from his pocket and handed it to Wang Shan.
Wang Shan took the map and studied it carefully for more than a minute. Then he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and his expression softened.
"Haha, sorry about earlier. After all, our clan has too many enemies, so we have to be careful." Wang Shan handed the map back to Yan Yi and said with a smile.
Wang Shan's change in attitude made Yan Yi and Ban Jian relax a bit, and the sense of danger he had given off earlier disappeared.
In his perception, there were more than just these two little guys. Unbeknownst to the two brats, there were also two elite ninjas following behind them.
However, judging from the aura they exuded, they showed no hostility. It was easy to guess that these two little guys must be of extraordinary status and had ninjas secretly protecting them.
Wang Shan remained vigilant, and finally said to Yan Yi, "Of course, for final confirmation, could you let me see your eyes?"
Yan Yi, of course, did not refuse. He nodded and immediately activated his single-tomoe Sharingan.
His large red eyes, combined with his fair skin and pure black hair, made him look very handsome.
"Yes, you are indeed children of the Uchiha clan. It must have been hard for you to come all this way. Would you like to come to my house for a visit?"
Wang Shan completely let down his guard and went over to pat the two boys' heads.
