Chapter 8

"You're their uncle."

In the woods far away from Konohagakure stood an annoyed blonde Hokage who waited for his sensei to finally pull himself together. A few minutes ago, they stood at the Konoha gate, after the blonde called the silver-haired man.

The older man didn't really know what to expect, but the fact that his apprentice transported them such a long way so quickly surprised and scared him.

"Are we there yet?" asked the slightly out of breath, silver-haired man. He transported them far away, but they had to walk the rest of the way, because as the blond said, "A little

walk in nature will do us both good." And so now Kakashi stood slightly out of breath and tired from all the walking, the blonde did not even give him a moment to rest, except for this one now.

Tired of waiting, Naruto walked over to his predecessor, grabbed his ear and dragged him in a well-known direction. They were waiting for them, besides, he wanted to get back to Konoha as soon as possible as he had promised he would be back at lunchtime. "Come on old man."

Literally minutes later, Kakashi was standing in the living room, in a house that was in the middle of the woods without any explanation from his blonde-haired student, as if that weren't weird enough, three children were standing in front of him, looking like a mixture of Naruto standing on his right and his other apprentice, Sasuke.

The youngest of the three, as soon as he saw them, he immediately ran to hug the blonde. He most resembled his raven-haired student, especially when he was a child, before his parents died.

"So you want to tell me..." he began as calmly as he could, but the emotions took over and he couldn't stand it. "THAT YOU HAVE THREE KIDS WITH EMO DUCKASS BITCH !?" he screamed, scaring Minato, who only hugged the blonde tighter, he in turn did not react to the man's screams, basically it even made him laugh with the way his sensei called the raven-haired man.

He took a breath, "Yes." he said calmly, not looking at the expression of the man standing next to him. "And Garaa knows?"

"He is my 'brother' that goes without saying." the blonde's smile did not disappear from his face, and at the thought of the red-haired Kazekage even slightly enlarged. "And Shikamaru, which is basically pretty obvious." the blonde didn't even have to answer or straighten, the silver-haired man answered himself. "And Karin and Hinata." the older man continued, normally the blonde would start to get irritated, but surprisingly, such discoveries are not made every day.

"Kakashi, Karin is my family, my cousin. And Hinata, as you know, is my wife, unless you have already forgotten because of your dementia, it is understandable at your age." Naruto laughed under his breath as Kakashi looked at him with hurt in his eyes, he felt offended, he wasn't that old at all! "Maybe she is, but I can clearly see that you are not one of the most faithful. You have three sons with Sasuke! "He raised his voice pointing at the children in turn.
"And no, I don't have dementia, I'm not that old! But you apparently have, since everyone knows, even Itachi, who is dead! " he was indignant at how he could have forgotten him, he understood the seriousness, but it still hurt him to some extent that his student, the person he considered to be his family, didn't trust him enough to entrust the secret.
"You said to everyone but not to your dear Sensei."

"Oh, stop dramatizing." he finally turned to the silver-haired man. Meanwhile, the whole show was watched by Saruto and Menma, basically just Saruto because Menma fell asleep standing.
'What's going on here?'

Through the boy, suddenly he heard a bang and saw that it was just his younger brother, who finally lost his balance and fell over. "Kakashi," the blonde said, drawing the attention of the man who looked like an idiot at the boy standing up.
"I need your little help with training Menma and Minato, you have more experience and knowledge in this."

It surprised the silver-haired man, and that was when he realized something, Naruto could do it himself, he had been helping Konohamaru and the rest of the Ebisu team for a long time.

"Wait a minute, you want to say that-" he did not finish, he did not have to, he got the answer from the blonde's gaze. Those two, he didn't know how or why, but it turned out that both boys had awakened the Sharingan.
"I have no one to talk to about it, and besides, my father treated you like a son, so you are like a brother to me, Kakashi!" he said with a full and broad smile, he was sincere, full of love and enthusiasm, warm, just like years ago. "You are their uncle, Kakashi-nii~!"

The silver-haired man didn't know what to say, he'd been alone for years, him and no one else. All his relatives were dead, his students, whom he treated like family, had their own families and did not have much time. He wanted someone to depend on, someone to call his family, but he was too afraid to love.

Therefore, when he heard the blonde's words, an emptiness reigned in his head, warmth spread over his body, a nice feeling, he was happy.
He was so happy, he did not expect the blonde to ever call him brother, Kakashi could not stop the tears flowing to his black eyes, he cried, he cried with happiness.

For the first time in years, he removed the mask covering his face, showing a sincere, happy smile, and his cheeks were adorned with salty liquid, tears of happiness.
