All the rumors are one-sided and directed at his father.

Even the rescued companions were blaming him.

Everyone is denying and humiliating.

Then it was connected to the clip of his father Sakumo lying in a pool of blood, using his White Fang dagger to end his life.

As for the ninjas and villagers who had slandered their father before, they were still alive as before, and no one came to apologize after their father committed suicide.

——Don't stop doing things that should be right because of others' disapproval, or even regret it afterward because of others' ridicule and accusations. I just abide by the beliefs and persistence that a Konoha ninja should have.

The words of his father Sakumo still ring clearly in his ears.

In the end, there was no hatred or regret, and he died with a calm mind.

He certainly didn't want his son to have any resentment against the village.

Because from beginning to end, he died gloriously as a Konoha ninja.

Until his death, he concealed the truth of the matter.

Kakashi looked at his palms. No matter what, he couldn't find peace in his heart.

I can't do what my father Sakumo said and not have any resentment towards this village and those at the top.

"So, what is your choice? No matter what it is, I support you. Follow me, or follow Teacher Sakumo's last wish, generously forgive everything, love this village deeply, and protect this village."

Shiraishi stood up from the shadow rock, walked to Kakashi, and patted his shoulder.

"Neither Sakumo-sensei nor I can make a decision for you. Because this is your own choice, Hatake Kakashi. It is not someone else who makes the decision for you. No matter how difficult the future is, you must grit your teeth and persevere.

Go down until the moment you die. It’s up to you to choose which way to go..."

Having said that, the rest is left to Kakashi to judge.

If he chooses to continue to protect Konoha, he will seal this part of his 'memory' and let him live as an authentic Konoha ninja.

If you choose to follow yourself...

"I will surpass my father."

Kakashi said this.

Shiraishi turned his head and looked at Kakashi.

"Yeah?"

Shiraishi nodded, knowing that Kakashi made his choice.

He turned around and left here, leaving only Kakashi here alone.

The moonlight shrouded the Shadow Rock, and Kakashi looked up.

Father, I will use my own strength to surpass you!

And let those high-level officials pay a heavy price!

Perhaps this may be a wrong decision that will disappoint his late father Sakumo.

But Kakashi has decided that this is the path he wants to take.

A completely different path than what his father Sakumo expected.

——The scene in which his father Sakumo commits suicide with a dagger and falls in the room.

——Idiot people who know nothing and were deceived by the top management.

——The senior officials who have safely enjoyed the fruits of victory in the political struggle have never understood the pain that their fathers faced when they committed suicide.

Just thinking of this, Kakashi felt his heart beating continuously, crazily and fiercely.
