An autumn breeze rustles the pages of *The Tales of a Gutsy Shinobi* as Kakashi glances up and offers a lazy wink. In the background, tied to a wooden post, Naruto hungrily catches mouthfuls of rice offered by Sasuke and Sakura. The Jonin finally sets his book aside, spotting a familiar silhouette beneath the tree. His one visible eye crinkles into a warm, welcoming smile, and he lifts a hand in invitation, beckoning an old friend closer to meet his new team.
