Hagetaka and The Hokage's Message
Chapter 33: Heading Out!
Kokukozu was in his office, getting dressed for the summit, hiding his Akatsuki cloak in his desk.
He wore two, off-white scarfs, a blue, short-sleeved shirt, and peach shorts.
He was currently unraveling the bandages that covered his mouth and right eye.
Only his mouth could be seen, which had sharp teeth.
He placed an eye patch over his left eye.
His office had several swords hung on the wall:
Zabuza's "Decapiting Carving Knife", Kisame's "Samehada", Chojuro's "Hiramekarei", and Raiga's "Lightning Fangs".
Someone knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
Replied Kokukozu.
There, a young man opened the door with his whole arm.
He had long blond hair, hazel eyes, a Mist Village headband wrapped around the bridge of his nose and a scar on his left cheek.
He wore a black Hakama with the Mist Village symbol in white on the back.
"It's time to head out, Mizukage."
Kokukozu nodded in agreement.
He grabbed his Kage Hat and shut the door behind him.
Both Kokukozu and the young man walked down the spiral staircase to the gate.
"Is your brother here today, Kumichi?"
"Not sure, hopefully not, obnoxious, little shit."
Kokukozu looked at Kumichi with astonishment.
"Why would you call your own brother such a thing?"
"..."
He put his head down in disappointment.
Once they reached the gate, they saw a suspicious-looking Shimokaton leaning on it, wearing a fake smile.
He too wore a black Hakama.
"Hehe, we all set, Kumichi?"
He nodded.
Thousands of villagers shouted their farewells and waved to them good-bye.
Kokukozu gladly looked back and waved.
I just wonder how much longer this Kage thing will last.
