Kakashi felt severe pain spreading from his throat.
His vision began to blur.
'This... is this the feeling of death?'
Kakashi only felt that the pain in his body was being pulled away a little bit, leaving the pain in his throat that is becoming clearer.
'Is this the end?'
Kakashi's mind was like a revolving lantern, as memory flashed one by one.
The confusion and fear at the beginning of when he just got here and gradually became stronger after training.
Changed the childhood of Naruto, Jugo, and Karin, saved Hyuga Hizashi, fight against Yondaime Raikage, saved Shisui, resolving the Uchiha Clan so they are not annihilated, saved Sandaime Hokage, and... fell in love with Terumi Mei.
'It turns out that I have done so many things.'
A smile appeared on the corner of Kakashi's mouth.
He was fortunate that his experience was not in vain. He saved many people who should have died, and changed the tragic fate of many people.
Kakashi felt that in this life, perhaps he did not live in vain.
"Everyone, I am sorry. I originally wanted to protect you, but I didn't expect that I still can't do anything. And I died in such a place. Haha, it's really ironic."
His consciousness gradually became blurred, and Kakashi sat halfway on the ground, leaning against the stone wall behind him.
From a distance, Madara looked messy, a large part of his left body was missing, and blood was flowing from his mouth.
"I don't expect to die in Madara's hand... Everything is over, so tired... this time, I can have a good rest."
Kakashi slowly closed his eyes, and his sign of life gradually disappeared.
Kakashi! Fallen!
Madara seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when he felt the sign of life in Kakashi's body gradually dissipated.
"As expected of Gintoki-sensei, he can actually push me this far. It has been really a long time since I was exhausted and injured like this when fighting against someone."
Madara covered his wound with one hand and stood up slowly.
Looking at Kakashi who is leaning by the stone wall, a long-lost emotion surged in Madara's heart for some reason.
That feeling is like the sorrow he felt when he learned about Hashirama's death.
"In the end, I am the only one left in this world."
Madara sighed, and then a trace of bitterness appeared on his face.
The path that Madara chose was destined to be a path that is both dark and without companions.
"My injury is very serious. I must return to the base as soon as possible, and use the Gedō Mazō and Hashirama's cells to reserve my life. Otherwise, I am afraid I will die here."
Madara said, and then he spit a mouthful of blood again.
The wound on the left side of the body is worsening, and there is a strong numbness on his body.
After being hit by the silver-white Lightning, Madara's body became paralyzed, but Madara forcibly used the power of Wood Release to suppress the numbness and used Shinra Tensei (Almighty Push) to attack Kakashi...
That's why Kakashi was so shocked when he saw Madara moved.
Kakashi didn't expect that the numbness caused by the Star Destroyed could be suppressed by Madara in an instant.
At that time, Kakashi's body was already beaten, and he can't move it very well, so that he was hit by Shinra Tensei (Almighty Push).
Madara stood up and looked at Kakashi. He then said in a low voice: "But first, I should take Mikaze's Sharingan from Gintoki-sensei. After all, it is a pair of good eyes."
In recent years, Madara has collected a lot of Uchiha Clan's Sharingan, but none of them can compare with Mikaze's Sharingan. Therefore, Madara attaches great importance to these eyes.
After Madara hand over Rinnegan to Nagato, he needs new pair of eyes so he chooses Mikaze's eyes.
Madara walked towards the dead Kakashi slowly, with a trace of nostalgia in his eyes.
"Gintoki-sensei, the situation at that river back then was still vivid in my memories. I didn't expect that when we met again, we would fight like this. You are very strong. If not because I have this pair of eyes, I would be the one who died."
Madara stood in front of Kakashi, feeling a little lonely.
Madara stretched out his right hand, trying to search for Mikaze's Sharingan on Kakashi's body.
At this moment, Madara was shocked!
'Someone is coming!'
'This presence is very powerful!'
Whoosh!
A burst of wind suddenly sounded!
Madara's gaze narrowed, and he turned away, leaving the place.
Boom!
A silver-white short sword was stabbed to where Madara had just stood.
"Silver-white short sword? Konoha's White Fang?"
Madara was slightly surprised. Although he hadn't been appearing in the Shinobi World for a long time, he still had some impressions of the Shinobi who had recently become famous in the Shinobi World.
Madara looked up, and sure enough, a silver-white haired lone figure stood on the stone wall, looking at him with cold eyes.
'Damn it, what a bad timing. With my current condition, I can't deal with this Konoha's White Fang. It seems that I can only retreat first.'
Madara thought, and without a word, he began to run away.
In just a few seconds, he disappeared into the distance.
When Sakumo saw this, he did not chase after Madara. Instead, he landed in front of the short sword, gently pulled it up and placed it back into the scabbard on his back. He then turned and looked at the already dead Kakashi.
The atmosphere turned a bit weird at this time.
"Am I too late?"
As Sakumo said that, he stepped forward to feel Kakashi's pulse.
But, he didn't feel any pulse from Kakashi.
Looking at the hole at Kakashi's throat, Sakumo sighed.
"Is this the man that Mikaze was talking about? But he is dead now."
Sakumo muttered to himself, and at this moment, a green light suddenly appeared on Kakashi's body.
Sakumo was shocked when he saw this, and exclaimed: "This is... Sunagakure's Kishō Tensei (One's Own Life Reincarnation)?"
Kishō Tensei is a forbidden technique for reincarnating someone, using the user's own life and Chakra as the price of saving the dead!
A high level forbidden resurrection technique that uses one's life to save another!
It was originally created by Sunagakure to give life to the puppet, but after it was created, it was discovered that it can be used to exchange someone life to resurrect someone else, and it was immediately banned.
Few people know about it except for the high-executives of Sunagakure.
But Sakumo is one of the few who knew this.
In the war against Sunagakure, Sakumo killed a pair of expert couples who used puppets, and on them, Sakumo got the scroll that contain about this technique.
And this pair of expert couples is Chiyo's son and daughter-in-law, and they are also Sasori's parents!
Under the green light, the hole in Kakashi's throat gradually healed.
Kakashi's sign of life also appeared again, but it seemed a little faint.
When Sakumo saw this, he picked up Kakashi and left the place.
The battle between the Madara and Kakashi just now is so big, so it would be bad if others were attracted to come there.
So, it is better for Sakumo to leave that place first.
Feeling Kakashi's slight breathing in his ears, Sakumo felt a warm feeling.
"Kakashi, I didn't expect to see you when you grow up so soon."
Using Shunpo, Sakumo disappeared from that place.
In the darkness, Kakashi felt as if his soul had drifted somewhere.
Standing on the ground again, Kakashi felt his body drop down, and the original light feeling disappeared.
"Where is this?" Kakashi said softly.
Suddenly, a fire appeared in the distance. The fire continued to burn, followed by a sizzling noise.
A middle-aged man wearing a Konoha's vest sits next to the fire, showing Kakashi his back and his silver-white hair.
Kakashi was taken aback, feeling that the scene before him was a little surprisingly familiar.
"Oh, is it you Kakashi? I didn't expect you to come so quickly."
The familiar voice seemed to pull Kakashi into one of his early life memories.
Kakashi stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Yes, tou-san."
Report chapter
Long silver-white hair, and a gentle smile on his face.
He is wearing a Konoha's Jōnin vest, with a bandage wrapped around his right arm and a Hokage armband on his left arm.
It is said that this armband can only be obtained by becoming a Hokage candidate after having achieved great feats.
The person in front of Kakashi right now is Hatake Sakumo!
Kakashi's father, the so-called Konoha's White Fang who died of suicide!
At this moment, he is sitting quietly next to the fire, and his murderous achievement from the Shinobi World could not be seen at this moment. Right now, he looks like a father, looking at Kakashi with a smile.
Kakashi's original heavy heart was lightened at this moment.
"Tou-san, long time no see. I really didn't expect to see you after death."
"Oh? It's been a long time? I didn't expect that it has been a long time since I am only here for a while now. I remember that you are six years old at that time. You're already big now. Kakashi, how old are you now?" Sakumo said with a smile.
"28, almost getting 29." Kakashi said, sitting next to Sakumo.
When Kakashi traveled through time, he was already 27 years old. After staying in those past timeline for more than a year, he is indeed almost 29 years old now.
The father and son are sitting together at this time, and there is a kind of warm feeling surrounding them.
"29? You really have died young. It's earlier than me, as I lived to 35 years old." Sakumo said with a smile.
Kakashi smiled helplessly and said, "I am sorry."
Sakumo waved his hand and said: "Fortunately, I arranged something. Otherwise, I am afraid that you will really die this time."
Kakashi was taken aback, and said in surprise: "Tou-san, what do you mean? What did you arrange?"
Sakumo sighed and said: "This is gonna be a very long story. Fortunately, we still have a lot of time, so I can tell you slowly."
A puzzled look appeared on Kakashi's face, but he was not in a hurry.
After so many years of being Shinobi, he has developed enough patience.
"This matter may have to start when I was sixteen. I was a good friend with Mikaze. At that time, he went to perform a mission and when he came back, he awakened his Sharingan and he became completely different from before. At first, I thought it was because his teammate, Aomaru died, but then I found out that that was not the case."
Kakashi listened attentively as Sakumo talked about the past.
That familiar face made Kakashi a little nostalgic. Making him recall when he was in his father's arms when he was a child.
'How long have I not experienced that feeling?'
It's been too long, so Kakashi almost forgets that feeling.
'It's great to be like this now.'
Kakashi thought, with a smile on his face.
"A few years later, the name of me and Mikaze began to spread in the Shinobi World, but Mikaze seems to intentionally hide his Strength, so I rushed to the front in many situations. Because of that, my reputation is getting more and more famous while Mikaze's reputation become more and more unknown. But I know that Mikaze is very strong, definitely not someone a normal Jōnin can compare."
"Once on a mission, several of his companions died. Mikaze was in a bad mood, so he came to me for a drink. After drinking for three rounds, Mikaze became a little drunk and suddenly said something to me. Can you guess what it is?"
As Sakumo said that, he suddenly looked at Kakashi.
Kakashi was taken aback, and then said, "Is it about me?"
Sakumo smiled and said: "Yes, he's talking about you. He said that in the mission back then, he saw a person who claimed to be my son, and told me a bunch of inexplicable words. I just thought it was just Mikaze is talking nonsense, but in the next morning, when I asked him again, he told me with a heavy face that those things were true."
"It turns out that Mikaze-senpai actually told tou-san about me a long time ago." Kakashi was surprised.
Sakumo nodded and said: "Yeah, I thought that Mikaze was crazy at the time, and didn't believe it very much. Until one time, something happened, and I finally thought that what Mikaze said might be true."
"What is it?" Kakashi wondered.
"It's because of you."
"Me?" Kakashi was taken aback again.
When Sakumo said this, his expression was a bit lonely.
"That day, I returned to Konoha with you who was just born, and Mikaze came to pick me up. He was able to know about your name even before I told him. Your name is something that only me, Ayako and Miko know about, but he knew it too. I finally understand that it's not a coincidence, and what he said it's true."
"Really? I didn't expect tou-san to believe in Mikaze-senpai because of my name."
"Kakashi, about Ayako..." Sakumo was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to speak.
When Kakashi was still a child, Sakumo could never tell Kakashi about Ayako.
Hearing this, Kakashi smiled and said: "Tou-san, I have been to the Uzushiogakure, and I have seen kaa-san's grave there. I have also been to Heshi Village, and I have met Miko baa-san. From her mouth, I already know about tou-san and kaa-san's situation."
Sakumo was taken aback when he heard this, and then smiled: "Really? That's good."
"I will have your ashes and kaa-san's buried together."
Sakumo smiled and said: "Thank you, it's great to be buried with Ayako after death."
Sakumo's face showed a look of nostalgia, and Kakashi did not disturb him.
After a while, Sakumo continued: "I remembered some past events and felt a little emotional. Let's continue with Mikaze. Soon after that, I and Mikaze were sent to the Land of Rain to become Konoha's army commander in the war. Before we reach the Land of Rain, he told me that he had an ominous premonition, but for the sake of the war, he went to the Sunagakure's base camp and cause chaos there. In the end, although we won the war, we found Mikaze's corpse who was brought back to our base."
Kakashi was silent. He knew that he was the one who brought back Mikaze's corpse to Konoha's base.
Kakashi was about to speak, when Sakumo continued: "I know that you are the one who brought Mikaze's body back, and the person who killed Mikaze is Uchiha Madara."
Kakashi was taken aback, and quickly asked: "Tou-san, how do you know about that?"
Sakumo smiled and said: "Because after that, you will see me."
"See you? But am I not already dead?" Kakashi muttered.
"When the battle between you and Uchiha Madara has just ended, I arrived. The seriously injured Uchiha Madara didn't dare to fight with me, so he retreated. Do you know what I saw in you afterwards?"
"What?"
"The light of the resurrection."
"The light of the resurrection?" Kakashi was even more shocked after hearing this. After all, there were not many Ninjutsu that could be used to resurrect someone in this World.
"It's Kishō Tensei (One's Own Life Reincarnation), and the Ninjutsu come out from somewhere inside your body."
As Sakumo said that, he pokes a finger on Kakashi's forehead.
"Kishō Tensei? How is it possible?" Kakashi was very shocked.
Report chapter
Sakumo threw a branch into the fire, and the fire burns even more vigorous.
"At that time, I was able to learn about how to use Kishō Tensei after getting the scroll from the battlefield. So when I saw the content of the scroll, I knew it was this technique that was resurrecting you. Combined with what Mikaze told me, I had already guessed all of the matter."
"Then tou-san, did you commit suicide for me?" Kakashi asked in shock.
"It's only half of the reason. In fact, as early as Ayako died, I wanted to leave with Ayako, but Ayako saw through my heart, and told me to raise you up. On one hand, I didn't want to disappoint Ayako, and on the other hand, I really can't just let you live alone. So, I chose to take you back to Konoha to raise you until you are six years old. Because of that failed mission, I chose to commit suicide."
"Everyone said that you committed suicide because you can't stand the rumors, but I know that tou-san is not such a weak person," Kakashi said.
After hearing this, Sakumo looked pleased and said: "The rumors, naturally, didn't get into my heart. In order to make my reputation unable to continue to rise, thus making me unable to get the Hokage's position, Danzo has greatly exaggerated about my failed mission. At that time, my reputation is indeed too high, so Sandaime Hokage did not deal with this matter in time in order to suppress my high reputation. I don't blame them for this. The means for politics have never been bright. At that time, Konoha needed a stable condition and could not be split because of me."
"Then why? Since tou-san is not taking the rumor to the heart, why should you commit suicide?" Kakashi asked.
"Naturally it is for you and also for Konoha." Sakumo said with a smile.
"For me and Konoha?"
"Yeah, for you and Konoha. My presence affected Konoha's balance. There were a lot of Konoha's Shinobi who supported me to fight for the position of Hokage and oust Sandaime Hokage. Especially my subordinates in Anbu."
"How come? Anbu is the direct subordinate of the Hokage. How can they encourage you to do that?" Kakashi was puzzled.
"Yeah, the reason is because Anbu is not the root. They have their own beliefs and persistence. At that time, Konoha experience a defeat, and the defeated commander is the Sandaime Hokage! That defeat also caused someone important to die. And these aroused Anbu's dissatisfaction at that time."
"Who is that important person?"
"Kato Dan, the Anbu's Commander at that time, and also the lover of Tsunade!"
"It's him!"
"Yes, it is him. Kato Dan's reputation is very good, especially for the members of Anbu. Therefore, in the minds of Anbu's members at the time, Kato Dan was the best Hokage candidate. At that time, due to the Sandaime Hokage's misjudgment, Kato Dan fell into the enemy's trap and died. And Tsunade was also become completely depressed because of this incident. Tsunade and Dan, these two people were the two most loved Konoha's Shinobi at that time. Although Sandaime Hokage was indeed guilty, these people's complaints are too much."
"It turns out that this is the case. The original thing was so complicated." Kakashi murmured.
"Complexity is hard to talk about. It's some political issues, and these have always been the things I hate the most." Sakumo said with a smile.
"So, these Shinobi were supporting me because of my prestige, and also because of Dan and Tsunade. They hope that Sandaime Hokage will step down as soon as possible. They have already had some doubts about Sandaime Hokage's ability. But that is obviously impossible. After all, we are still in the war at that time, and temporary change of commander is taboo, not to mention the change of Hokage. Sandaime Hokage was very distressed at that time, so he did not stop Danzo's action. Their purpose is to provide a stable condition in Konoha. And I know that too."
"But I know that this won't solve the problem. It will only temporarily suppress it, and people's hearts are complicated. Facing against the other Four Great Shinobi Villages, Konoha is in danger. So, I chose to commit suicide, to make all of those who support me to give up on me. And this is also the fastest way to calm people's hearts." Sakumo said.
"Tou-san, you..." Kakashi didn't know what to say after hearing this. Sakumo's choice could be called selfless dedication, but in this way, it felt too extreme.
"Do you think I am too extreme in my choice?" Sakumo said with a smile.
Kakashi nodded and said: "Tou-san, there was definitely a better solution at the time, but you chose this one. And, with your wisdom, you should be able to guess that mission is a trap, why should you still take that mission?"
Sakumo smiled and said: "Yeah, I know. It's just that Ayako is dead, Mikaze is also dead and my heart is already dead a long time ago. I survived just to take care of you. And after seeing that you werealready good enough at that time, I was relieved. The companion who died at that mission was a subordinate who had been following me all this time, and indeed I'm feeling guilty because of that. And, I know, you will be killed in the future, and only I can resolve it. Death is my best destination."
"Is it for this time?" Kakashi said.
"Yes, it is for this moment. You have been pierced in your throat by Uchiha Madara. If you want to live, you can only be resurrected by forbidden technique. So, I used the Four Symbols Seal to seal my Chakra and vitality in your Heart, so that once you die, this seal will be released and you will be resurrected. At this time, your body should have been restored. And the past me should also guard you by your side." Sakumo said with a smile.
"Tou-san..."
"Well, I've told you everything. Now, I can go to Ayako with peace of mind."
"Tou-san, thank you. I didn't understand your approach back then. I think you are a trash because you didn't follow the Shinobi's rule. But I can understand your approach now." Kakashi said sincerely.
Sakumo was taken aback when he heard Kakashi's words, and then smiled: "Thank you, Kakashi, it's great to get your forgiveness. At that time, you were still small, but I just gave up on you and left. I think you have done very good works all these years."
Kakashi smiled and said: "Having such a great father, these hard works are nothing. What's more, tou-san, you also do this to save me."
"Hahaha, I can't be considered great, just to doing my part for my children. I am very pleased to see your growth right now. Not only on your strength, but also on your heart."
Sakumo said as he patted Kakashi's shoulder with a gratifying look.
"Kakashi, tell me about your things over the years."
"Well, tou-san, it's like this. At first, after you died, I applied for advance graduation, and then..."
Next to the fire, Kakashi slowly told him about the bit by bit of what happened to him in the past few years.
And Sakumo listened with a smile, enjoying the warmth atmosphere of father and son.
This may also be the last time the two met.
Report chapter
The fire is getting smaller and smaller, and the space has become more and more bleak.
Kakashi also just finished talking about his last journey.
Sakumo smiled and said: "I didn't expect that in your short life, you can have such a rich experience. It's really rare."
"If I can, I would like my life to be plain."
"Haha, there is a kind of person in this world who is born to do great things. You can't escape that. I believe that you will be needed in the future of the World of Shinobi." Sakumo said with a smile.
"I don't know about the future of the World of Shinobi but I will definitely protect the people I cherish." Kakashi firmly said.
After hearing this, Sakumo looked emotional and said: "Then you have to do your best. I wasn't able to save Ayako and Mikaze. Those were the biggest regrets in my life."
"Tou-san, I will do my best." Kakashi nodded as he promised Sakumo.
"Well, seeing you like this, I'm relieved. This fire is almost extinguished, and there are only a few of my Chakra left inside your body. Kakashi, don't rush to come here to find me and Ayako." Sakumo said with a smile.
"Tou-san, I will live with your faith. I will protect the Konoha that you cherish, and even the peace in the Shinobi World."
At this time, a white light began to appear on Sakumo's body and it also began to blur.
Kakashi saw Sakumo smiled and said: "Silly boy, I don't need you to be a hero. I only hope that you can live with the person you cherish until you are old. That is enough for me and Ayako."
Kakashi was taken aback. He finally understood that what parents want their children to do is sometimes only a simple thing.
"I will, tou-san," Kakashi said firmly.
Sakumo nodded in relief, waved to Kakashi, and with a burst of white light, his figure gradually disappeared into nothingness.
The fire was completely extinguished at this moment, and the space turned dark.
"Tou-san, I won't let you down," Kakashi murmured.
Immediately, Kakashi lost his consciousness again.
He didn't know how long it took, but Kakashi only felt a pain in his body, and he felt that his consciousness has returned to his body again.
Kakashi opened his eyes with difficulty, and saw an unfamiliar ceiling.
"Where is this?"
Kakashi found himself in a bed at this time. The bed was very simple, but there was a feeling of cleanliness.
Kakashi's eyes scanned around the room, and he made a judgment instantly.
'The one living here is not rich, but also not poor.'
Inside the room there is a blanket made of animal fur. Things like tableware and chopsticks seem to be made of bamboo or animal bones.
The one living here must have depended on hunting for a living. Otherwise, with such a simple house, they should not be able to afford these things.
Kakashi rubbed his temple with his right hand, and said in a low voice: "It seems that I'm really saved. Tou-san is right. I am not dead."
Kakashi said as he put his right hand on his heart. He felt to be a lot lighter. After all, the seal that was originally created by Sakumo has been released.
Kakashi never knew that Sakumo had put such a seal on his body before he died.
That heavy paternal love, Kakashi can feel it very clearly at this time.
He touched his throat that was pierced by Madara before and saw that it was white and flawless as if it was never injured at all.
"It seems that the injuries on my body have been healed by Kishō Tensei. What a magical Ninjutsu, no wonder it needs life as the payment."
Kakashi sat on the bed. Although he did not know where he is right now, but according to what his father said, at this time it should be his father who put him here, so he shouldn't be in any danger.
However, as a Shinobi, naturally he must have the power to protect himself at any time.
So Kakashi sat cross-legged on the bed, controlling the Chakra from his body.
"Huh? My body seems to have undergone a certain change."
Kakashi stopped what he is doing, and then found what is wrong with his body.
Originally, Kakashi had three Cursed Seals on his back, but at this time, only one remained.
And the energy contained in the remaining Cursed Seal seems to be completely different from the previous Senjutsu.
"What is going on?"
Kakashi felt that it is strange, and quickly pour his Spiritual Force into it.
He saw that there was a very powerful power in the remaining Cursed Seal, and this power gave Kakashi a very familiar feeling.
"Silver-white's Senjutsu Chakra? Is the product of the fusion of Three Great Holy Land's Senjutsu?"
Kakashi was surprised, then turned ecstatic.
'Originally it was just a slightly fused, but has it been fully fused now?'
Under the detection of his Spiritual Force, Kakashi's original surprise slowly disappeared. He felt that it doesn't seems to be as optimistic as he expected.
"The Three Great Holy Land's Senjutsu Chakra seems to be really fused, but the quantity is very small. With this quantity, it is estimated that using Star Destroyer would exhaust it after using it only once. And... it seems that it cannot be used freely."
After Kakashi release the Cursed Seal and experience the feeling of the new Senjutsu Chakra, he found that the flow of the Senjutsu Chakra is very sluggish.
"It seems that although the Senjutsu Chakra is fused, it will take some time for me to be familiar with it if I want to use it freely. It should not be used for the time being. And depending on the situation, before this silver-white Senjutsu Chakra is fully mastered, I am afraid that I can't even use the normal Three Great Holy Land's Senjutsu."
Kakashi has just absorbed Mount Myōboku's Senjutsu Chakra, but after he absorbed it, it was absorbed by the silver-white Cursed Seal and could not stay in his body.
After that, Kakashi then tried to absorbed the Ryūchi Cave's Senjutsu Chakra and the Shikkotsu Forest's Senjutsu Chakra, but the results were the same.
Therefore, Kakashi had to come to this conclusion.
However, Kakashi didn't think it was a big deal for not being able to use Senjutsu for now.
The fusion of Senjutsu Chakra is the very important thing for him, and it doesn't matter if he can't use other Senjutsu for now.
Besides, even without Senjutsu, Kakashi still has a lot of cards left.
Although his combat power has decreased, there are not many Shinobi that can win against Kakashi in the Shinobi World.
'In any case, it is a good thing that Senjutsu has finally showed sign of fusing. I can feel that the newly fused Senjutsu Chakra is very powerful. If I can fully grasp it, my strength will definitely be able to soar to a new level!'
Thinking of this, Kakashi couldn't help but clench his fist.
Although he died once in this battle, the gains he got were not small.
The fusion of Senjutsu that has always been distressing him has finally achieved a breakthrough.
Kakashi got out of bed. Although his body has not fully recovered yet, but there shouldn't be much problem with moving his bones and muscles.
At this time, the door was opened.
The person who came in has long silver-white hair!
Report chapter
The person has long silver hair, fair skin, and a bowl of soup in its hands.
It is a woman!
When the woman saw Kakashi wake up, she was taken aback for a moment, and then she was pleasantly surprised and said: "Are you awake? That's great!"
"Who are you? Where is this place?" Kakashi was surprised.
"My name is Hatake Gintsuki. This is the secluded place of the Hatake Clan. Are you also from the Hatake Clan? I can tell from your hair. Sakumo-sama is the one who brought you here." Gintsuki said with a smile.
Kakashi was taken aback, 'This is the secluded place of the Hatake Clan?'
Hearing this, Kakashi stood up and pushed open the door. Sure enough, this place was somewhat similar to the place where he had traveled to the Hatake Clan last time.
After being rejected by Mikaze last time, Kakashi went to the place where the Hatake Clan's member lived in seclusion in order to look at the situation and to pass time.
One of them is to see whether Sosu has fulfilled the agreement with him or not, and the other is to see how is the situation of the Hatake Clan's members who lives in seclusion.
After Kakashi went to see it, he found that it was indeed a good place to live in seclusion, and there were also many members of the Hatake Clan.
At that time, Kakashi was also relieved. As long as these people did not have an accident in the future, the Hatake Clan won't vanish from the Shinobi World.
Kakashi didn't meet with the Hatake Clan's members at that time, and left directly after seeing the situation as he didn't want to influence these people anymore.
After that, Kakashi waited quietly for more than three months before the energy in Ryūmyaku Vein recovered and go into this timeline.
"Mister, what's wrong with you?" Gintsuki asked in confusion after seeing Kakashi suddenly reacted so intensely.
"It's nothing," Kakashi said.
Gintsuki was a little puzzled, and then as if understanding of something, she then said, "Are you wondering how the Hatake Clan lives in seclusion? In fact, we are going to seclusion before the Hatake Clan joined Konoha. It seems that the Clan Head at that time said that it was just in case. Back then, my grandmother led the clansmen to come here and thrive. No one knew about this except for the Hatake Clan's Clan Head. So it's normal if you don't know about this."
"Who is your grandmother?" Kakashi asked.
"My grandmother's name is Hatake Hanatsuki!" Gintsuki said with a smile.
"Hanatsuki?" Kakashi murmured, looking at the woman named Gintsuki in front of him, and said, "Was it your grandmother who named you?"
Hearing this, Gintsuki was shocked and said: "How did you know?"
Hearing Gintsuki's response Kakashi could only bitterly laughed, 'Gintsuki? Gintoki and Hanatsuki. I didn't expect that at the end, Hanatsuki still can't forget about me.'
"Why don't you answer me?" Gintsuki asked doubtfully.
"It's nothing, I just guessed." Kakashi smiled, but that smile was somewhat restrained.
"You can guess this? Isn't it too exaggerated? As expected of the person brought back by Sakumo-sama, you're really different!" Gintsuki praised.
"Haha." Kakashi gave a dry laugh.
Silver Moon only remembered that the reason she came in this time is to give medicine to Kakashi.
"Mister, this is your medicine. You should drink it."
"No, my injury has almost recovered. I will be fine after a few days of rest, so I don't need to take this medicine." Kakashi said.
He has no interest in drinking such bitter thing.
"Really?" Gintsuki asked doubtfully.
"Of course it's true. I won't lie about my body." Kakashi said with a smile.
Hearing this, Gintsuki nodded and said: "That's good then."
"By the way, where is this Sakumo-sama you're talking about?"
"Sakumo-sama said that he still has things to do, so he left first. This is the letter he left for you." Gintsuki said as she took a letter from her pocket and handed it to Kakashi.
Kakashi took it, and saw that the envelope was still intact, proving that no one has opened it yet.
Kakashi opened it, and after a few glances, he burned the letter.
"Eh? Why did you burn it?" Gintsuki asked in surprise.
"Some things can't be shown to others," Kakashi said.
"Wow, it's really mysterious. By the way, are you Konoha's Hatake Clan? What is Konoha like? Can you tell me? I have never been to Konoha. There are some rules in the Clan. It's said that we can go anywhere, but we can't go to Konoha. But Konoha is the biggest Shinobi Village in this world, so I really want to go and see it."
Gintsuki has been talking to Kakashi's ears nonstop. At this moment, Kakashi didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
'This girl can really talk too much.'
In the end, Kakashi asked Village to go out first as he wanted to take a rest, and only then did he gain the peace for his ears.
Kakashi lay in bed, and the contents of the letter appeared in his mind.
The content of the letter is very simple, Sakumo is telling Kakashi to stay here to heal his wounds first, as he needs return to the battlefield to command the army. After all, at this time, Sakumo is the highest commander of Konoha's army in the Land of Rain. And Sakumo also told him in the letter that he will come over to talk to Kakashi about something later.
Seeing the content of the letter, Kakashi would naturally hold back his plan to leave.
Although Kakashi didn't know what Sakumo in this timeline was going to say to him, Kakashi would naturally not refuse Sakumo's request.
'In any case, there are still some injuries in my body, so let's take care of the injuries first.'
Kakashi's secretly thought, and then made a decision.
After spending a few days in the secluded place of the Hatake Clan, Kakashi's injuries are almost completely healed.
Kakashi did not say hello to the other members of the Hatake Clan, and at the same time he told Gintsuki to not to tell his existence to the other clansmen.
The reason is simple. The fewer people who know about him, the less likely it is for unexpected things to happen.
At this time Kakashi has got Mikaze's Sharingan, so his next step is to leave this timeline, so Kakashi does not want to have another accident.
On the other side, in a dark underground base.
Madara sat quietly on the ground, and behind him is the Gedō Mazō.
Tubes were inserted into Madara's body, and the part of his body that had been destroyed by Kakashi was patched with Hashirama's cells.
Madara closed his eyes, and his expression shows that he is in pain.
White Zetsu stood there blankly, and motionless.
After a long time, Madara opened his eyes and muttered: "Gintoki-sensei's Senjutsu is really amazing. Not only it destroyed my body, but it also absorbed my vitality. Now it seems that I can only rely on this Gedō Mazō to survive."
As Madara said that, his fists were tightly squeezed together, obviously feeling a little angry.
"White Zetsu, do you know where the Konoha's White Fang took Gintoki-sensei's body?"
"Madara-sama, the White Fang is very powerful. I can't track him at all."
"Is that so? That's okay. Now I want you to go and bring me the child named Nagato. I will transplant my Rinnegan to him. And remember, you must be hidden, don't let anyone know about this."
"Yes! Madara-sama!"
After seeing White Zetsu left, Madara sighed and murmured: "The chess pieces have not been completely set up yet, I still can't die now."
Report chapter
Madara looked at the Gedō Mazō behind him, his plan had just begun, and the chess piece had not yet been completely set yet, so how could he die here.
"Gintoki-sensei, I didn't expect you would cause me such a big trouble when you died." had said with a light smile.
Madara turned his head to look at the pile of White Zetsu's test subjects not far away.
"It seems that I have to spend the rest of my life here from now. Right now, if I am disconnected from Gedō Mazō, I am afraid I will die immediately. With White Zetsu's ability, if I want to take Mikaze's Sharingan from Konoha's White Fang, it is probably impossible. It seems that I can only give up on it. Fortunately, there are some stocks from before, otherwise I won't have Sharingan after giving my Rinnegan." Madara muttered to himself.
"The next step is to wait for the right person to appear. Mikaze's son, Uchiha Obito? He should be a good candidate. I just need to give him some time to grow up. Also, Nagato, I hope that this little brat would be able to use the power of Rinnegan, Otherwise, I am afraid that I will not be resurrected."
Madara said, closing his eyes and starting to think his plan.
His body can no longer withstand fighting so Madara can only simulate the missing part of the plan in his mind.
'There can be no mistakes in this plan, otherwise, my dream will never be realized.'
'It seems that another person is needed to supervise this plan.'
Madara suddenly thought of this. After all, Nagato and Obito are existences that Madara cannot fully control, so he needs someone to supervise them.
Madara looked at his palm and murmured: "Sage of Six Paths can create everything in this world with his Yin and Yang Release, then I also should be create a character with my Yin and Yang Release to supervise these two. Let's call him Black Zetsu. But right now, my situation is a bit bad, so this thing will be temporarily suspended."
Madara said, and then he falls into silence again.
In this gloomy space, it became dead silence again.
From then on, Madara never saw the sunshine at the outside again until he died.
On the other side, in Hatagakure.
Hatagakure is a village where the Hatake Clan lived in seclusion.
Kakashi is sitting on a cliff at this time and muttered: "The location of this Hatagakure is really good. If someone doesn't know that there is a village here, they won't be able to find it. It seems that there should be no problem for the Hatake Clan even in the future."
Kakashi then stood up, and was ready to leave. At this moment, Kakashi suddenly felt that someone was approaching from behind him.
Ding!
With a crisp sound, a silver-white short sword slashed on the Millennium Sword summoned by Kakashi.
"Very good reaction ability." Sakumo said.
Kakashi was taken aback, and then smiled: "Thanks for the praise."
"I have a guess about your identity, so I won't ask much. You don't need to tell me about the future. I don't want to know. I just want to ask you a few questions." Sakumo said coldly.
Although he knew that the man in front of him was the future of his son Kakashi, Sakumo couldn't accept it for a while, after all, Kakashi is only a few years younger than him right now.
Looking at Sakumo in front of him, Kakashi couldn't help but have a weird feeling.
'This Sakumo felt quite different from the one I saw in my consciousness before.'
The Sakumo in front of him had a murderous aura that could not be concealed, but the Sakumo in his consciousness before had a gentle feeling.
After thinking about it for a moment, Kakashi understood why there was such a big difference.
The current Sakumo was killing a lot of enemies in the battlefield, so naturally the murderous aura on his body wouldn't disappear in a short while, coupled with Mikaze's death that Sakumo obviously had not fully recovered from yet.
And the Sakumo in his consciousness had already let go of everything, and he was relaxed, so he naturally has a feeling of gentleness.
Perhaps after this battle, Sakumo will curb his edge and become calmer.
"You can ask. I will tell you what I know."
"Very well. First, was Mikaze's death caused by Uchiha Madara?"
"Yes."
"Okay, second, are Mikaze's eyes in your possession at this moment?"
Kakashi frowned and said: "Yes."
"Okay, last question, when are you leaving?"
"At any time."
Sakumo asked the three questions quickly and Kakashi also answered quickly.
After finished asking, Sakumo pondered for a moment, and then said: "I understand, I entrust Mikaze's eyes to you, and I will also entrust Hatake Clan's future to you. Also, leave as soon as possible. Time is not something you can play with."
After Sakumo finished speaking, he disappeared using Shunpo.
Kakashi stayed in place, deep in thought.
Sakumo's decisiveness was beyond Kakashi's expectation.
He didn't expect that Sakumo was coming here just to ask him these three questions.
However, the style of this questioning is very much like his father's back then.
Kakashi still remembers that his father spoke like this when he was three or four years old. But later, it slowly became warmer.
Today, seeing the past Sakumo makes Kakashi feel a little emotional.
Feeling grateful, Kakashi then get ready to leave.
'Tou-san is right. Time is not something that I can play with.'
'I've caused too much trouble this time, so I have to leave as soon as possible.'
Kakashi has a hunch that if he continues to mess around, maybe the entire timeline will be messed up.
By that time, Kakashi could never go back.
"It's time to go back. I should say my goodbye to Gintsuki first."
Kakashi said, and he went to find Gintsuki.
Gintsuki is cooking at this moment, and when Kakashi stood there, Gintsuki has not noticed it, and is still working hard.
"The meal is almost ready. I will call Kakashi-san to come and eat later."
Kakashi felt warm when he heard this. Kakashi felt very relieved after knowing that there are always people who care about him no matter what timeline he was in.
"Gintsuki," Kakashi called softly.
Gintsuki froze for a moment, then looked back and saw Kakashi standing there. Then, she couldn't help but said, "Kakashi-san, why come you are?"
"I'm here to say goodbye to you, I am going to leave soon."
"Huh? So fast? Don't you want to stay for a few more days?" Gintsuki said rather reluctantly.
"Haha, Gintsuki, I still have things to do. But rest assured, I will see you again in the future."
"Really?" Gintsuki said as she looks at Kakashi with her big eyes.
"Of course it's true, I won't lie to you."
"That's great! I will wait for Kakashi-san to come to see me, so don't lie to me." Gintsuki said with a smile.
"Of course, I will not lie to you, Gintsuki."
"Good!"
The sixteen-year-old girl, Gintsuki, showed a happy smile and looked forward when the day when this promise fulfilled.
During the girl's innocent years, she had some good feelings and expectations for this inexplicable person. But of course she was far from being in love.
It's just that the girl doesn't know that this promise can only be fulfilled after more than 20 years.
Kakashi looked at the distance, at the direction of the Ryūmyaku Vein.
It's time to go back.. I don't know what's going on there.
Report chapter
In the sixty-two year after Konoha was built, at the Ryūmyaku Vein in the vast desert.
A white light suddenly appeared on the platform in the Ryūmyaku Vein, and then a figure slowly appeared.
The figure has silver-white hair, white short-sleeved trench coat, and handsome face. It is Kakashi.
"Hah, I'm finally back. It should have been nearly two years, a year earlier than I expected."
Kakashi muttered softly.
He originally thought that his trip might take three years, but he didn't expect it would only take two years.
"It's because everything goes well."
Kakashi walked out of the Ryūmyaku Vein and saw the familiar sky.
At this moment, suddenly Kakashi felt something strange. When Kakashi wanted to get back into the Ryūmyaku Vein, he felt that the Ryūmyaku Vein that he had just come out was actually isolated by an unknown energy, and Kakashi could not get past it.
"This is..."
Kakashi was surprised as the Ryūmyaku Vein seemed to be rejecting him.
"It seems that my time travel made the Ryūmyaku Vein remember me and repelled me. It seems that I will not be able to enter the Ryūmyaku Vein anymore in the future. If I force to get in, I am afraid that the Ryūmyaku Vein will collapse on its own." Kakashi muttered to himself.
Any world is in order, and Kakashi's action this time is destroying this order.
So he can't do it anymore.
"Well, it's good as it makes me won't thinking about traveling through time again." Kakashi chuckled, and his mood became a lot more relaxed.
Kakashi glanced around and didn't stay for a long time. He directly used Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder God Technique) and disappeared from that place.
In the next moment, in a certain room in Ochagakure, Kakashi's figure appears quietly.
Looking around the room, Kakashi muttered: "There is no change here."
Kakashi did not choose to return to Konoha, but came to Ochagakure.
After leaving the room, Kakashi was slightly surprised after seeing everything in front of him.
The Ochagakure has become completely different from the last time he is here that it is almost unbelievable.
The towering buildings all around making it looks like a great village like Konoha.
"I really don't know what Shisui has done in the past two years. The change is too much." Kakashi murmured.
Just when Kakashi was feeling emotional, a figure landed in front of Kakashi.
The figure is Shisui.
"Kakashi? You're back? Is the matter resolved?" Shisui said in surprise.
"Well, it's done, sooner than expected." Kakashi smiled.
"That's good." Shisui said with a smile.
"How's Akatsuki in the past two years?" Kakashi asked.
"Akatsuki has been very low-key in the past two years. The information from Itachi said that Akatsuki is raising a lot of funds and they probably are getting ready to act," Shisui said.
Kakashi nodded, 'According to the original work, it should be a year later that Akatsuki officially starts their plan.
"How is Konoha's situation?" Kakashi asked.
"Naruto followed Jiraiya-sama traveling out of the village to train. Sasuke is being trained by Clan Head Fugaku, and Tsunade-sama gradually grasped the authority in Konoha. Well, those are the important news." Shisui said.
"It seems that everything is moving in a good direction." Kakashi smiled.
"Yeah, but there is a problem I am a little worried about." Shisui said while frowning.
"What is it?"
"Itachi's body."
"Itachi's body? I have seen Itachi once after Orochimaru invaded Konoha. His body seemed to be sick. Is it becoming more serious now?" Kakashi frowned.
Shisui nodded and said: "Yes, this guy is always getting into something. Did you remember that we once go to the sealed place of Sword of Totsuka back then? Itachi got a clue about the Yata Mirror there, and then he went to find it himself. He was able to found it. However, he also suffered serious injuries. Coupled with improper recuperation, his body is getting worse than before. If this continues, he may die in two years."
"Yata Mirror? No wonder he suffered serious injuries."
Remembering the last time when he was in the sealed place of Sword of Totsuka, Kakashi could understand the difficulties to get the legendary artifact.
"Kakashi, do you have a way to treat Itachi's body?" Shisui asked.
I've only seen him once, so I don't know exactly what condition he is in. Itachi always likes to carry it by himself. But if Tsunade-sama makes a move, it shouldn't be a big problem," Kakashi said.
"Tsunade-sama? I also thought about this issue, but right now, with Itachi's identity, it is obviously not suitable for him to get treatment from Tsunade-sama. But if we wait until Akatsuki is resolved, I'm afraid that Itachi won't be able to hold it." Shisui said worriedly.
Kakashi thought for a while, and then said, "There is another way."
"What is it?"
"In addition the injury he got from when he went to find the Yata Mirror, his sickness should also because of the side effects after using Mangekyō Sharingan. If we can transplant Hashirama's cells to Itachi, he may be cured," Kakashi said.
After hearing this, Shisui looked at his left hand that was created from Hashirama's cells and transplanted to become his new arm.
The arm composed of Hashirama's cells allows Shisui to feel the surging vitality. Not only it enhances his own Chakra, but it also minimizes the side effects from using Mangekyō Sharingan. If it is transplanted to Itachi, it should be able to heal Itachi's sick body.
"It makes sense!" Shisui said joyfully.
"However, we don't have a suitable person to transplant Hashirama's cells to Itachi. It is impossible to find Orochimaru now, and Tsunade-sama will definitely not agree to do this kind of thing," Kakashi said.
"It's okay, there are medical Shinobi in Ochagakure right now, and I also have Hashirama's cells. As long as a little research be done, it should not be difficult to transplant it to Itachi." Shisui said.
"In that case, I'll leave this to you."
"Okay." Shisui nodded in response.
"Good, then I will leave first," Kakashi said.
"Back to Konoha?"
"No, there is another person I'm going to see first. I guess that she is very worried about me after these two years." Kakashi said with a smile.
Hearing this, Shisui was taken aback for a moment, then he said with a smile: "Oh, then you should go to see her. She has already developed Kirigakure very well, and the mess left by the Yondaime Mizukage has all been cleaned up."
"Is that so? That's amazing. Then, I will go now." Kakashi smiled.
"Yeah."
Kakashi's figure disappeared instantly. Shisui only smiled when he saw this, and then turned and left.
The Land of Water, Kirigakure.
At this moment, Mei is now standing on a mountain. This place is where she usually with Kakashi at Kirigakure.
Mei held a red jade stone in her hand, looked into the distance, and muttered: "It's been two years, are you... okay?"
"Well, I'm fine."
An abrupt voice sounded in Mei's ear, making her stiffen.
'That lazy voice, the familiar smell, and the familiar feeling behind me...'
"Mei, I am back..." Kakashi said with a smile.
Mei turned around abruptly and hugged Kakashi tightly.. Her eyes are turning slightly red.
Report chapter
"You finally came back, I... I'm so worried about you."
Mei held Kakashi tightly, her face showed the joy after having a long-awaited reunion.
"Yeah, I'm back, sorry to make you worried." Kakashi said with a smile.
"It's okay, the most important thing is that you come back safely." Mei joyfully said.
"Thank you."
"Is things going well?" Mei asked.
"Well, it went well, that's why I came back early." Kakashi smiled.
"Are you hurt?"
"Of course not."
Although Kakashi almost died, he won't tell this thing to Mei.
After all, he is fine now, and it's better than let Mei worried.
Mei didn't have any doubt after hearing this, after all, standing in front of her is a complete fine Kakashi. So it's enough for her.
The two people who hadn't seen each other for a long time spent time together for a while.
So the Godaime Mizukage magically disappeared from Kirigakure for another night, making Ao worried for a while.
Fortunately, the next morning, Mei came back with a very joyful smile on her face.
Although Ao did not know what was going on, he didn't ask Mei about it, after all, it's not a bad thing after seeing Mei showed such a joyful expression.
He is just a subordinate. So it will annoy Mei if Ao cause excessive intervention in her life.
At this time, Kakashi finally returned to Konoha.
After telling Tsunade about his return, Kakashi left the Hokage Tower.
As for the mission arrangement, it will take a few days.
After all, after Kakashi left, things have been rescheduled. It would take a few more days to arrange the arrangement as Kakashi came back to take over at this time.
Naturally, Kakashi had no opinion on this. And he wished that this arrangement would take a few more days than expected.
When he walked around Konoha's street, although he only left for two years, Kakashi felt it has been a long time.
The familiar feeling in Konoha makes Kakashi feel very warm.
Because it feels like home here for him.
As he was walking, Kakashi felt a little hungry. After rubbing his stomach, Kakashi muttered: "It's been a long time since I had ramen."
With this idea, he naturally moved towards Ichiraku Ramen.
It's still the same small restaurant. As it's not lunch time at this time, there are no people in the restaurant.
Kakashi walked in and sat on the chair.
Seeing someone coming in, Teuchi who was sitting in the corner of the kitchen immediately reacted. He got up, bent over and said, "I am very sorry, I am not doing business today. Please come back another day."
Kakashi was taken aback when he heard this, 'Why did I am so unlucky? After finally come here, did you have to go home empty-handed?'
"Teuchi-san, it's been a long time since I came here, do you want to let me go back like this?"
Teuchi was slightly surprised when he heard this as he felt the voice was so familiar.
When he looked up, he saw a man with silver-white hair.
"Kakashi? When did you come back?" Teuchi said with a happy expression.
Teuchi still remember Kakashi even if Kakashi hasn't come to his restaurant for a long time.
After all, Kakashi is the Konoha's Hero. And Kakashi has been in his restaurant a lot since he was a child, and it is difficult to forget about him.
"I just came back. As I miss the taste of your ramen, I came here to get some." Kakashi said with a smile.
Teuchi smiled and said: "Haha, you haven't come here for almost two years. So it makes sense that you miss the taste."
"Yeah, your ramen is really delicious. But, Teuchi-san, why did you just say that you are not doing business today?" Kakashi asked doubtfully.
Hearing Kakashi's question, the joy on Teuchi's face began to fade, and his expression returned to the melancholy expression like before.
Upon seeing this, Kakashi knew that something was wrong.
"Teuchi-san? What happened? Tell me if you have any troubles, if I can help, I will definitely help you," Kakashi said sincerely.
Teuchi sighed and said: "Kakashi, you can't help with this."
"Teuchi-san, you haven't said anything yet, so how do you know that I can't help?" Kakashi said helplessnessly.
Teuchi glanced at Kakashi for a while. He then stood up, walked into the back kitchen, brought out a bowl of noodles, and handed it to Kakashi.
Kakashi said, "Teuchi-san, what..."
"Just eat and see it for yourself." Teuchi said and did not directly answer Kakashi.
Kakashi looked at the bowl of noodles. Although there was still some steam left, it was not newly cooked. There was only half a bowl left, which meant that it have been eaten before.
However, after hearing Teuchi's words, Kakashi did not think much as he took a chopstick and took a bite.
Upon taking a bite, Kakashi's eyes widened suddenly, and he couldn't help but said, "It's delicious!"
Then he held up the bowl and drank a big mouthful of soup.
After drinking the soup, Kakashi exclaimed: "This soup is also very good. It seems to be a bone soup that has been simmered for a long time, with some delicacies added! Teuchi-san, is this your newly developed ramen? It tastes great! It is more delicious than before."
Kakashi praised it again, but Teuchi didn't look happy at all, instead he became more gloomy.
Seeing that something was wrong, Kakashi asked: "What's wrong, Teuchi-san?"
Teuchi sighed and said: "Kakashi, I didn't make this ramen."
"Huh? Teuchi-san didn't make this?" Kakashi was surprised when he heard this.
"Yeah, I didn't."
"That... what's going on?" Kakashi asked.
Teuchi did not directly answer Kakashi's question, but said: "Kakashi, do you know about cooking-nin?"
"Cooking-nin?" Kakashi stunned for a moment, and then said, "I know about them. Shinobi usually eats in the wilderness when they are on mission. Although there are such things as soldier pills, it is not delicious. Therefore, Shinobi hope to eat delicious food in the wilderness. After that, the existence called cooking-nin was born. They can take the ingredients from anywhere and cook it deliciously. Many Shinobi teams like to bring cooking-nin on their mission."
Teuchi nodded and said: "Yes, it is that cooking-nin."
"So why did you talk about this, Teuchi-san? Are you also cooking-nin?" Kakashi asked in surprise.
Teuchi shook his head and said, "No, I'm not. It's like this. When I was young, I learned the craft of making ramen in a ramen restaurant. When I was studying at that place, there was also another person, his name is Hakkaku. He is my junior brother. After I finished my study, I came to Konoha and started a ramen restaurant. And Hakkaku went to another Shinobi village and became a cooking-nin."
"Did you mean that your junior brother came to find you, Teuchi-san? Isn't that a good thing?" Kakashi said.
Teuchi nodded and said: "Yes, my junior brother did come here to find me, but it was not a good thing."
"Could it be... he came to cause some troubles?" Kakashi speculated.
"It can be said like that. This bowl of ramen was made by him." Teuchi said, pointing to the bowl of ramen Kakashi had just eaten.
"So, does that mean that your junior brother come here to challenge you? And the topic of the challenge is ramen? Then... Teuchi-san, you lost?" Kakashi speculated.
Teuchi nodded with a gloomy expression and said: "Yeah, the moment I ate this ramen, I knew I had lost."
Report chapter
Kakashi looked at the bowl of ramen in his hand. 'Indeed, the taste of the soup and the texture of the noodles in this ramen were better than the ramen made by Teuchi-san.'
'If it is a face-to-face confrontation, Teuchi-san has indeed lost.'
Kakashi then said: "Teuchi-san, it's okay. Victory or defeat is a common in our life. It is also a good thing to have a goal now that you taste defeat."
Teuchi was taken aback for a moment, and said, "That's true, but..."
"But what?" Kakashi wondered.
"Hakkaku does not intend to end this."
Kakashi's eye narrowed and then he said, "What do you mean?"
Teuchi once again sighed and said: "This thing start from more than a year ago. At that time, Hakkaku came to me and hoped that I could hand over the "Phantom" recipe, but I didn't know what it was. Hakkaku thought I was hiding it from him, so he kidnapped Ayame. Hakkaku gave me two choices, one is to hand over the "Phantom" recipe, and the other is to make the dishes that can satisfy him."
Kakashi was a little surprised when he heard this.
"The results?"
"It took me half a month to develop a new soup, but my arms were injured and I couldn't make a good ramen with my injury. Fortunately, there were Naruto, Choji and Sakura who helped me. I was able to make the ramen that can satisfy Hakkaku and saved Ayame. The misunderstanding of the "Phantom" recipe was also resolved after I explained it to Hakkaku."
"Isn't that very good? Then how come this Hakkaku is coming again?" Kakashi wondered.
"This time, Hakkaku came here because he also developed a ramen, which is the one you just ate. To be honest, the taste of this ramen makes me feel uncomfortable. The unspeakable deliciousness is something that I have never taste before."
"Teuchi-san, your ramen is also very delicious, it is not much worse than this bowl of ramen," Kakashi said.
Kakashi is telling the truth. Even if the ramen that he just ate is really amazing, Teuchi's ramen is definitely not that far behind from this ramen.
Although there is a gap between the two, the gap is definitely not big.
"Thank you, Kakashi. Hakkaku said that he gave me three days. If I can't develop something more delicious than this ramen, then he will open a ramen restaurant opposite my restaurant. At that time, I am afraid..."
"So that's what happened. Teuchi-san, you don't have to worry, even if he opened the ramen restaurant, I believe that everyone will come to you to eat ramen," Kakashi said.
"No, Kakashi, you don't understand. Our teacher has a rule. It is absolutely not allowed for senior brother to open a shop in the same village as the junior brother. This is the iron rule he created! No one can change it!" Teuchi said seriously.
Kakashi said, "Doesn't that mean..."
Teuchi nodded and said: "Yes, if I lose, I must leave Konoha."
Teuchi said. He looks all around the restaurant, the bricks and tiles here were all built by him. He has lived here for more than 30 years. He really can't bear it to leave Konoha and his restaurant.
But his skill is not as good as his junior brother, so Teuchi has no choice but to leave.
"Teuchi-san, this is wrong. Everyone likes your craft. If you leave, everyone will not be able to eat your delicious ramen anymore." Kakashi said anxiously.
"Kakashi, I don't want to leave either, it's just that..."
At this moment, Ayame came out from the back kitchen and said: "Tou-san, we still have a chance. We still have three days. We certainly can make something more delicious than that Hakkaku!"
Teuchi was stunned for a moment and said: "Ayame..."
Kakashi then said: "Teuchi-san, Ayame is right, you can't just give up. There are still three days, so you still have a chance. As long as everyone works together, you will definitely succeed."
Teuchi was moved when he heard Kakashi's words, and then he said: "Kakashi, thank you. I understand. I will never give up!"
Teuchi slapped his sleeves, as if he was going to do a big job.
"Teuchi-san, I will help you," Kakashi said.
Hearing this, Teuchi smiled and said: "Haha, thank you Kakashi, but you are not good at this kind of thing so leave it to me."
"You are wrong about that, Teuchi-san."
"Oh? So you can cook, Kakashi?" Teuchi said with some surprise.
"Of course, I have feed myself by my own craft since I was a kid." Kakashi said with a smile.
"Haha, if that's the case, let's work hard together. We should buy some ingredients first!"
"Well, Teuchi-san, I have an idea, maybe we can try it out," Kakashi said.
"Oh? What is it?" asked Teuchi curiously.
Kakashi showed a mysterious smile and said, "You will know later, I'll get the materials first."
After Kakashi finished speaking, he left Ichiraku Ramen. It is unknown where he went to.
Ayame was puzzled and asked: "Tou-san, what is Kakashi-nii going to do?"
Teuchi shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it should be a good idea. After all, he looks so confident."
"I hope so, otherwise..." Ayame's expression become a little worried, after all, if Teuchi couldn't beat Hakkaku this time, they would really have to leave Konoha.
As Konoha is the place where she grew up, she didn't want to leave.
Seeing the expression on Ayame's face, Teuchi naturally knew what Ayame was thinking.
"Ayame, don't worry, tou-san will never lose!"
"Yeah!"
Kakashi left the center of the village and reached the outskirts of the village. There is a small river in front of him.
"Although I don't know if this idea can be done in this world, if it can succeed, we should be able to win."
Kakashi muttered to himself while looking at the small river.
Although there is a market in Konoha, the fish there is not as fresh as the fish that he caught.
"There should be the fish I want here."
Kakashi stood still on the water, his eye narrowed slightly.
A gust of wind blew, and suddenly Kakashi's eyes lit up. He quickly reached out to touch the bottom of the river!
Splash!
Splashing water sounded, and then, a fish that is longer than forty centimeters appeared in Kakashi's hands.
The fish has a long body, a flat head and a flat tail. It is brownish-yellow. The most obvious feature is that this fish has four beards, which are long on the top and short on the bottom.
It is catfish!
"Caught it! Next, I need to find the other ingredients."
Half an hour later, Kakashi returned to Ichiraku Ramen with the ingredients.
"Kakashi-nii, you're back. What are these?" asked Ayame.
Kakashi smiled and said: "These are the ingredients I have prepared."
"Why are there so many fishes?" Ayame asked curiously.
"You'll know later. What about Teuchi-san?"
Hearing this, Ayame answered with a worried tone: "Dad is researching new ramen in the kitchen, and I don't know how the situation is."
"Is that so? Then, I will go see it."
"Okay."
Kakashi walked into the kitchen with his ingredients.
As soon as he entered, Kakashi saw an incredible scene.
He saw that Teuchi is constantly kneading the dough, the movement range is extremely large, and his movement is also extremely fast.
The shape of the noodles slowly appeared, and then Teuchi take the noodles and threw it accurately into the soup!
What is even more amazing is that at such a long distance, there is not much water splashing!

At this time, Teuchi also saw Kakashi and smiled: "Oh, Kakashi, you are back, did you find the ingredients you are looking for?"
Kakashi lifted the bag in his hand and said, "I found it."
"Oh? What is it." Teuchi asked with interest.
Kakashi did not speak, but took the things out of the bag.
"This is... sea bream? Catfish? And shredded squid?" Teuchi asked in surprise.
"Yes, these are the ingredients I have prepared."
"Is this to make the soup? Sea bream does taste good in soup, but won't adding catfish and squid taste strange?" Teuchi wondered.
"No, only the sea bream is used to make the soup. The catfish and squid will be used to make noodles."
"Huh?" Teuchi is really confused. He has been making ramen for 30 years, and he has never heard of something like this before.
Kakashi smiled and said: "Teuchi-san, can you lend me the kitchen?"
"Of course, I am also curious about what kind of ramen you will make." Teuchi said with a smile.
"I won't let you be disappointed, Teuchi-san."
Teuchi left the kitchen and walked to the front.
"Tou-san? Why did come you out?" Ayame asked.
"Kakashi said that he wants to borrow the kitchen to make a ramen, so I came out," said Teuchi.
"What? Can Kakashi-nii really make super delicious ramen?" Ayame said expectantly.
"I don't know, but it's okay to let him try."
"I really hope that Kakashi-nii can succeed. That way, we can win."
"Ayame, we still have to rely on our own strength in the end," said Teuchi.
"I know, but if Kakashi-nii can succeed, we will be half way to success."
"Yeah."
Teuchi nodded when he heard this. If Kakashi can really make something more delicious than Hakkaku's ramen, then the outcome is basically decided.
In the kitchen, Kakashi is already busy.
These ingredients were taken out by Kakashi. The thing that Kakashi wanted to make is the legendary magical cuisine, the Seafood Catfish Noodles.
Kakashi has never tried it before, but, since he has a chance this time, he can give it a try.
The principle of Seafood Catfish Noodles is not difficult, but it's still kind of hard to make.
"Anyway, let's try it first. The first is the soup part."
Kakashi processed the sea bream and then threw it into the pot. After a while, the soup starts boiling.
"The next part of the noodles, if it doesn't work, then I can't create the dish"
The focus of Seafood Catfish Noodles is this part. Although the whole dish is called noodles, it actually does not use any flour, but instead uses catfish meat.
Although the meat of catfish is fragrant and soft, it does not reflect the characteristics of noodles.
So at this time, the shredded squid is needed.
And there is a big problem in this, that is, how to mix the catfish meat and shredded squid?
'If I add other ingredients, it is likely to produce other peculiar smells, which cannot reflect the essence of the bowl of noodles, that is, the taste of seafood.'
"The Hakkaku's ramen from before is very delicious, so if I want to win against it, I need to find the most suitable method so that I don't destroy the seafood taste. So I need to mix the catfish and squid without destroying the taste, and make so that it has the same texture as normal noodles."
Kakashi touched his chin and muttered: "It seems that the only way is to use the Shinobi Style."
Kakashi smiled and then, blue Chakra appeared in his hand.
Looking at the chopped catfish in front of him and the finely sliced dried squid shreds, Kakashi's hands began to shake.
The blue chakra is attached to the squid shreds, and the Chakra nature at this moment is the Water Attribute.
Kakashi can use all of Chakra Attribute. Naturally, he won't waste this kind of resource. All of five kinds of Nature Changes have been mastered by Kakashi, but Kakashi's best suite is the Lightning Release.
The Water Attribute makes the blue Chakra sticky. At this moment, attaching this Chakra to the squid shreds can make it have a certain viscosity, and this viscosity can make the catfish meat stick with the squid shreds.
Each of Kakashi's squid shreds is attached with Water Attribute Chakra, and then, a layer of catfish meat is wrapped around it.
With the help of Chakra, the squid shreds and the catfish meat were firmly wrapped together!
"It's a success!" Kakashi said joyfully.
At this time, the sea bream soup has also been boiled, and Kakashi did not waste any time, he adds various seasonings to the prepared catfish noodles, and then throw the noodles into the soup.
"The rest is the toppings."
Kakashi took out a kunai, cut the remaining fish into rolls. After all of this, Kakashi finally finished making the ramen.
"It's done!"
After Kakashi said this, bursts of strong fragrance drifted in the kitchen.
Teuchi and Ayame who were outside the kitchen also smelled this smell.
"This smell is..." Teuchi said in surprise.
"It's so fragrant, was it made by Kakashi-nii? Amazing!" Ayame said joyfully.
At this time, Kakashi came out of the kitchen with two bowls of ramen. He looked at Teuchi and Ayame and then said: "It's done, do you want to try it?"
"Yeah, I want to try it. It's so fragrant so it must be delicious! Kakashi-nii, you are so amazing!" Ayame said admiringly.
"Haha, let's try it first. I have no confidence in cooking this thing as this is my first time making this," Kakashi said.
"When I heard this sentence, I know that it will not be bad." Ayame said excitedly.
Teuchi also nodded and said: "No matter what your noodles are like, just the aroma of the soup has shown that you do a great job. It seems that you really have a great culinary skill, Kakashi."
"Thank you for your compliment, Teuchi-san. Eat it while it's hot and see how it tastes."
"Okay, okay." Ayame took the bowl from Kakashi and put it on the table, ready to start eating.
Teuchi also took the bowl and picked up spoon and chopstick.
"If you eat noodles, you should drink the soup first. The taste of the soup determines to a large extent whether the ramen is successful or not."
Teuchi said, taking a sip of the soup and put it to his mouth. Ayame also did the same.
After the soup got into their throat, Teuchi and Ayame's complexions changed, and then they showed a happy expression.
There seemed to be a volcano erupting in their hearts!
"This taste is really indescribable, it's so delicious, it's like a sea bream is swimming in my mouth. The feeling of freshness is simply indescribable!" Teuchi exclaimed.
"Yes, the deliciousness at the start, followed by a sweet taste, and then unspeakable and wonderful taste.. This soup is like a bowl of magical fish soup!" Ayame said excitedly.

"Next is the noodle part." Teuchi said with some excitement.
After tasting the soup, Teuchi has a certain degree of confidence in Kakashi's cooking skills. If the noodle can be worthy of the soup, then it won't be a problem to beat for them to beat Hakkaku.
Teuchi and Ayame looked at each other, and then, they started to pick up the noodles together.
"Eh, this noodle seems weird." Teuchi said he looked at the noodles Kakashi made.
Teuchi has made noodles for all of his life, so he naturally knows what the noodles should usually look like. But seeing the noodles now, he feels that his worldview seems is getting subverted.
"Yeah, this noodle doesn't seem to be made of flour." Ayame said curiously.
Kakashi smiled and said: "It is indeed not made of flour, but you should try it."
The two were a little curious about the noodle, so they didn't think too much, and put the noodles into their mouths.
'Huh!'
Teuchi and Ayame felt that a bolt of lightning seems to strike inside their minds at this moment.
"This taste..."
Teuchi was dumbfounded. 'Is this noodle?'
'What a strong umami!'
'This is the taste of the sea!'
Eating this bite of noodles making him felt that his whole body is on the bottom of the sea, and the suffocating delicacy continues to roll from the tip of his tongue.
'Kakashi said before that he is using catfish to make noodles, but if it was catfish, how could it be so chewy!'
'What kind of secret is hidden inside this noodle?'
Teuchi's gaze landed on the noodle.
"Huh? This noodle is has something on the inside." Teuchi said in shock.
At this time, Ayame also awoke from the taste of the noodles. She looked at the noodles, and sure enough, she saw that there was a filling in the noodles.
Teuchs chewed the noodles again, and said: "This is... squid? You actually added squid in it?"
"Yes, although the catfish is delicious, it can't make the noodles as chewy, and the shredded squid has a very strong chewiness. So, the combination of the two makes it possible to make noodles with a great taste even without flour!"
Kakashi said. He then takes out another bowl of ramen and taste it.
'The taste is indeed very delicious, not inferior or even slightly better than the one Teuchi-san usually sold.'
Teuchi looked at Kakashi in shock. His eyes seemed to say, 'Young man, you sure have a lot of ideas, let's just cook with me from now on.'
"Kakashi, you are a genius in making ramen. For you to think of this way to create ramen, it's amazing." Teuchi said emotionally.
Kakashi was a little bit dumbfounded when he heard this. Although he is praised as a genius since he was a child, it is the first time for him to be called a genius of ramen.
"Teuchi-san, this idea is not something I came up with. When I was traveling, I saw a chef doing this, so I just copy it."
"So it's like that. As expected of the Copy Ninja, Kakashi, you can even actually copy cooking too. Amazing. Can you tell me the name of this chef?"
Kakashi smiled and said: "His name is Liu Mao Xing, and he has a nickname called Chūka Ichiban."
"Chūka Ichiban? What a strange name. No, maybe it's because of that he has such a whimsical idea in cooking! The soup of sea bream, the noodles made of catfish and squid, it did not use flour at all, but was able to create such delicious ramen dish!" Teuchi said excitedly.
At this time, Ayame has finished her bowl of ramen and said with excitement: "Kakashi-nii, you are so amazing! Tou-san, if you can make this bowl of ramen, you will definitely win!"
Upon hearing this, Teuchi thought for a while. He then said: "It's not that simple. Kakashi, you made this combination of catfish and squid with the help of Chakra, right?"
Kakashi was taken aback as he didn't expect Teuchi to know about this.
"Yeah, I used Water Attribute Chakra, to apply that kind of viscosity and combine the two to complete the creation of the noodle."
"Sure enough it's like that. But, I am not shinobi, so I cannot do this kind of thing." Teuchi sighed.
"Tou-san, it's okay, we can ask Kakashi-nii to help." said Ayame.
Hearing this, the Teuchi refused.
"Ayame, that is cheating. I can't accept it. I want to win with my own way of cooking." Teuchi said sternly.
"Tou-san..."
"Well, it's fine. After tasting this ramen, I have some inspirations. Three days are enough time for me to make a new type of ramen. Kakashi, thank you."
"I am honored to be able to help you," Kakashi said.
Teuchi patted Kakashi on the shoulder and walked into the kitchen happily.
"Tou-san is too stubborn. If we lose, we must leave Konoha."
"Ayame, don't blame Teuchi-san, as a chef, he has his own dignity, and it is normal that he wanted to win without cheating. You have to believe in your father. He will be successful," Kakashi said.
Upon hearing this, Ayame looked at Kakashi, and said, "I understand, thank you, Kakashi-nii."
Kakashi smiled, did not say anything, and just looked at the kitchen. Is it really possible for Teuchi to create new ramen? Kakashi didn't know, but he believed Teuchi could do it.
Kakashi believed so because Teuchi is the owner of Ichiraku Ramen. The best ramen restaurant in the world.
Three days passed quickly.
Kakashi's position is almost arranged. He will take the over position tomorrow.
"I don't know what happened to Teuchi-san. I should go and have a look."
Kakashi said, and go to Ichiraku Ramen again.
"Kakashi-nii, you are here." Ayame said with joy.
"Yeah, how is Teuchi-san's research?"
"I don't know, tou-san has been in the kitchen for three days. I don't know what he is doing." Ayame said with some worry.
"Is that so?" Kakashi murmured.
At this time, a man in his forties walked in. He looked ordinary. The most distinctive feature was a black mask on his nose.
The mask didn't cover anything, but the nose.
"Ayame, where is your father?"
"Hakkaku? Why are you here!" Ayame was surprised.
Hearing this, Kakashi looked at the one called Hakkaku, 'This person is Hakkaku? He really has such an ordinary face.
"The three-day deadline has arrived. I naturally want to come over and to see the result. If he can't make the dish that makes me admit defeat, tomorrow, I will open my restaurant at the opposite of this." Hakkaku said with a sneer.
"You! You are too much. Why do you want to open your restaurant in Konoha!"
"Of course it is because Konoha's environment is very good. As the best of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, Konoha's system is so much better than other Shinobi Villages. Opening a shop here is also the safest. The most important thing is that I will be able to defeat Teuchi. This is all I want all this time!" Hakkaku said excitedly.
"Hmph! You must be dreaming! Tou-san will never lose!" Ayame's face puffed up with anger.
"Haha, that's not necessarily true. Three days ago, Teuchi has shown desperate look. I don't believe that in these three days, Teuchi can make a dish that beats my ramen."
"That's not necessarily true," Kakashi said.
"Huh? Who are you?" asked Hakkaku.
Facing Kakashi, Hakkaku didn't dare to be too arrogant. It is because there is Konoha's forehead protector on Kakashi's head, and Kakashi is also wearing Konoha's Jōnin vest.
Such a person is obviously not someone who Hakkaku can offend.
Before, Hakkaku thought Kakashi was just a customer, but now he knew that Kakashi is Teuchi's helper.
"Konoha Jōnin, Hatake Kakashi."
Hakkaku was shocked when he heard this. After all, Kakashi is very famous in the Shinobi World, so he didn't expect Kakashi to appear in front of his eyes.
"What do you want to do? This is the grievance between me and Teuchi. You can't interfere in this." Hakkaku said anxiously.
"Don't worry, I have no plan to intervene. I know that you will be defeated by Teuchi-san." Kakashi said with a smile.
Kakashi's smile made Hakkaku quite uncomfortable. He then said, "Hmph, that's impossible."
At this moment, a strong fragrance suddenly emerged from the kitchen, making the three people silent for a while.
Hakkaku was shocked and said: "This smell... how is it possible! It's so rich! It can give me such a strong impact even when I'm wearing a mask, is this... the smell of the sea...?"
"Tou-san!" Ayame exclaimed in surprise.
At this time, Teuchi came out of the kitchen with an excited smile on his face, and he is also holding a bowl of ramen in his hand.
"Oh? Hakkaku? You are just right on time, this is my special seafood noodles!"
Teuchi said as he put the ramen in the front of Hakkaku.
"Hmph, it's useless if it's just the smell. If the ramen is not delicious, everything is in vain!" said Hakkaku. He then took a spoon, and takes a sip at the soup.
"Huh!"
Hakkaku's eyes widened instantly!
"This taste!"
Hakkaku said as he tastes the soup.
He then picked up the noodle and swallowed it in one bite.
Boom!
The noodles seem to burst in Hakkaku's mouth, and the unparalleled terrifying strength spreads in an instant!
"This, this...what kind of noodle is this, how can it be so chewy!"
Hakkaku looked at the ramen in front of him in shock, but his hands didn't stop at all.
He ate the ramen bite by bite. In the end, he didn't even let the last drop of the soup go. He ate it all!
Both Ayame and Kakashi are happy when they saw this. With such performance, the outcome is already obvious.
"It's really a delicious ramen that people can't stop eating. I can't even control myself. Teuchi, how did you make it! I can understand the taste of the soup, but how can the noodle be so delicious!" Hakkaku said in disbelief.
Teuchi laughed and said: "Hahaha, this is the noodle I make after researching for three days. I called this, Teuchi Special Seafood Noodles! The delicious fish soup is used to blend the perfect fish dough, and then every squid shreds are added to each noodle, making its texture even more powerful! After countless failures, I finally succeeded!"
"What? It was actually added with squid! And it is every one of the noodle! This…What a patience!" said the shocked Hakkaku.
Hearing this, Kakashi secretly thought: 'It turned out that Teuchi-san gave up the catfish meat as the shell of the noodles, but extracted all the umami into the dough. It takes a lot of effort to calculate the best proportion.'
"Hakkaku, how is it? I won this time, right?" Teuchi said with a smile.
Hakkaku showed a gloomy expression as he knew that he did lose. At the moment he ate all the noodles, he lost.
Hakkaku didn't try to deny the result. As a cooking-nin, he has his own pride and will accept the result.
"Teuchi, you are really good. This time, I lost, but I will come back again!"
After Hakkaku finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"Great! Tou-san, we won!" said Ayame excitedly.
Teuchi also said triumphantly: "Yes, we won! Hahaha, Kakashi, thank you so much for your help this time."
Kakashi smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just made an idea. Teuchi-san, you beat Hakkaku with your own ability."
"In any case, I owe you a favor, and I will definitely pay you back in the future!" Teuchi said with a smile.
Kakashi didn't refuse when he heard this. He knew about Teuchi's straightforward personality.. So it won't be good if he refused him.
Report chapter
Kakashi didn't really care about the favor from Teuchi.
After all, with Kakashi's strength, there should be nothing Teuchi can help him with.
This event is officially over, and Ichiraku Ramen reopened, and it was full in an instant.
Kakashi didn't stay there, and went to the Hokage Tower.
"Tsunade-sama," Kakashi said softly.
"Kakashi, how is your rest these days?" Tsunade said with a smile.
"Not bad, I helped Teuchi-san to make a bowl of ramen."
"Ramen? I don't think you have this kind of skill." Tsunade said in surprise.
"My skill is just average."
"Well, let's not talk about it. Since you are back, then you should take over the Anbu's matter again," Tsunade said.
"Yeah, I understand." Kakashi said, this was something that he has expected a long time ago, and it was nothing strange.
"Good, then go to Yamato to take it over. I have already prepared him for these few days."
"I understand."
Tsunade looked at Shizune who was on the side, and said, "Shizune, please tell the detail to Kakashi."
"Yes! Tsunade-sama." Shizune said.
"Okay, you two can go to Anbu's base together," Tsunade said.
On the way, Shizune said: "Kakashi-senpai, this time you have left for two years, the impact on Anbu is great. Many things can only be temporarily suppressed and needed for you to come back to deal with."
"Huh? What is it? With Yamato's ability, general things should be no problem," Kakashi was surprised.
"Well, although Yamato's ability is good, it can't convince the crowd. You should know that this batch of Anbu was nurtured by Sandaime-sama. Except for Sandaime-sama, only Kakashi-senpai can make them obedient. Although Tsunade-sama's prestige is good, Tsunade-sama has been away from the village for too long after all. So it will take some time to make the Anbu to have full allegiance towards Tsunade-sama." Shizune explained.
Hearing this, Kakashi was surprised. But the truth is very simple, after all, these Anbu are Sandaime's teams, so it won't be easy for Tsunade to get their loyalties.
Although Tsunade has prestige, she has left Konoha since the Second Shinobi World War and she did not participate in the Third Shinobi World War. Therefore, most of the people who have an impression of Tsunade are middle-aged Shinobi.
These Anbu have a lot of young blood. Although they have heard Tsunade's name before, they have never seen Tsunade's glorious era.
Therefore, some dissatisfaction towards Tsunade still exists.
But Kakashi is different. Although not all of these Anbu are hand-picked by Kakashi, they all admire Kakashi's strength.
Especially when the eighteen-years-old Kakashi defeated the Yondaime Raikage, and planted a lasting impression in the hearts of this group of people.
In addition, originally, Sandaime was nurturing Kakashi as the next Hokage, so these Anbu more or less have good relationships with Kakashi.
Therefore, Kakashi, the Anbu Commander, is someone the Anbu will listen.
At the beginning, there were so many people who supported Kakashi as the Godaime Hokage.
Although Kakashi finally pushed away the position of the Godaime Hokage, in the eyes of these people, Kakashi will sooner or later take the position.
Although Kakashi's departure was Kakashi's choice, in the eyes of these people, Tsunade must have forced Kakashi to leave.
Therefore, this also caused their dissatisfaction.
The situation of working without effort is even more frequent. Fortunately, there was Sandaime mediating the Anbu so the contradiction was eased a lot.
"I didn't expect that my departure this time would have such a big impact on the Anbu." Kakashi didn't know whether to cry or laugh after hearing all of this information.
"It's okay, after all, with Sandaime-sama's help, this thing eased by a lot." Shizune said with a smile.
"I'm sorry, I will take care of this," Kakashi said.
"Then I will trouble you." Shizune bowed.
"It's fine, this was originally my fault."
"Then I won't bother you anymore. Tsunade-sama still has a lot of things waiting for me to deal with."
"Sorry to bother you."
Shizune smiled and left.
Kakashi retracted his gaze, sighed faintly, and murmured: "I didn't expect that when I left Anbu, these things would happen, it is really troublesome."
Kakashi didn't think much, and walked towards the Anbu's base.
Kakashi naturally able to enter the Anbu's base unobstructed.
It's just that everyone was surprised when they saw Kakashi, and some were even ecstatic.
Their Commander is back!
The real king in their hearts is back!
Although Anbu's base is an indifferent place, the news was quickly passed on.
The sixth team!
Anbu's legendary department.
Now, this squad is no longer an ordinary squad, but a gathering place for high-level Anbu.
Kakashi pushed open the door of the sixth team's room, and in front of him, nine people stood neatly.
The leader is Yamato!
Yamato looked at Kakashi and said with a smile: "Commander, welcome back to Anbu!"
"Commander! Welcome back!"
Nine people shouted and their voices deafening! The nine people bowed to Kakashi at the same time.
Kakashi was taken aback. He probably didn't expect that these nine people would actually welcome him back like this.
Soon, Kakashi reacted and smiled: "Thank you everyone."
The nine people looked at Kakashi and smiled.
The strength of these nine people belonged to the top of Anbu. Although Yamato was the leader, his strength was not the strongest.
The reason why Kakashi let Yamato manage Anbu's affairs after he left is because Yamato has followed Kakashi for the longest time and is also the most familiar with Anbu's affairs. At the same time, Yamato's popularity in Anbu is also very good.
More importantly, everyone in Anbu knows that Kakashi and Yamato's relationships are really good, so there is not much rejection of Yamato's instructions.
If they switch to another person, it won't have this effect.
At this time, a white-eyed youth took the lead and said: "Commander, why did you leave Anbu before? Is it because Tsunade-sama..."
Before the white-eyed youth finished speaking, Kakashi's cold eyes fell on him.
The white-eyed youth's body collapsed, and then he forcibly swallowed back his words.
This white-eyed youth youth is called the Hyuga Taiga, who is very powerful and was a former subordinate of Kakashi.
During the mission with Kakashi, he was rescued by Kakashi several times. And Hyuga Taiga's strength right now is also inseparable from Kakashi's training.
It can be said that the Hyuga Taiga's adoration and gratitude for Kakashi is the strongest in the entire Anbu.
Therefore, he has the strongest reaction towards Kakashi's departure.
"Taiga, don't comment on Tsunade-sama casually. I know that you are kind, but I chose to leave myself. I applied to Tsunade for the leave because I have to deal with a very important thing and it is completely different from what you have in mind."
Hyuga Taiga didn't believe it, and said: "Is that really the case?"
"When did I, Hatake Kakashi, lie to you?"
As soon as this word came out, Hyuga Taiga no longer has any doubt.
"Yes! Commander!"
After Kakashi returned, the hostility inside the Anbu all subsided within a few days, which shows Kakashi's powerful influence in the Anbu.
In the Hokage Tower, Tsunade sits on the Hokage's seat and opposite her is Sandaime Hokage.
Tsunade smiled and said: "Sarutobi-sensei, you are right. When Kakashi comes back, those restless Anbu immediately calmed down."
Sandaime blow his pipe and said with a smile: "Haha, that's natural. After all, apart from me, only Kakashi can convince these people from Anbu. Now that Kakashi is back, the grievances in their hearts naturally disappeared. Don't worry about it. Their feelings for Kakashi are built up bit by bit. And you have been away from Konoha for a long time."
"It doesn't matter to me. After all, I originally didn't have much interest in the position of Hokage. Kakashi is indeed a good candidate. But, I don't know why he refused to take over the position of the Godaime Hokage." Tsunade said curiously.
Hearing this, Sandaime sighed and said: "Kakashi is having a bad feeling from an organization called Akatsuki. He asserts that this organization will cause a huge storm in the future, so he needs time to deal with this organization."
"Akatsuki? I have heard that it seems to be a mercenary organization that obtains funds by hunting down Shinobi like bounty hunters. Now it seems that they are not that simple."
"Yes, it's not that simple. I have also investigated these people. They all seem to be composed of S-rank missing-nin, and Orochimaru is also in this organization."
"Orochimaru?" Tsunade muttered, remembering the man that resembled snake.
"Well, the gathering of such a group's tasks will never be for the purpose of making a living, so Kakashi's concerns are not unreasonable. Let Kakashi deal with this matter."
Tsunade nodded. She knew Kakashi's ability. If even Kakashi could not deal with this organization, then, no one in the world could deal with this organization.
For the time being, the talk about the Akatsuki's incident was finished. Tsunade and Sandaime then talked about the village again, and after a while, Sandaime left.
After all, the Hokage at this time is Tsunade, and she has a lot of things to do.
Sandaime is now only an elder, so he can relax.
There were a lot of things in Anbu piled up, so Kakashi had to deal with it for three days before he had time to go home and slept well.
After waking up, it is already in the middle of the night.
"Ah, it's a good night's sleep."
Kakashi stretched out his body. He then took a seal scroll with the word "eye" written on it from his ninja bag.
Kakashi narrowed his eyes and muttered: "The time is almost here, it's time to integrate it."
As soon as the voice fell, Kakashi's figure disappeared from the room, and in the next moment, Kakashi appeared in a secret room inside Ochagakure.
This secret room is placed under Kakashi's room in Jinjin Village and it is highly concealed.
No one knows about this room except Kakashi and Shisui.
And Shisui also hardly come to this place.
If Kakashi wants to integrate Mikaze's Sharingan, he needs a quiet environment.
The integrating surgery does not require much time, but the time until the integration completed cannot be estimated.
After all, Kakashi is not someone from the Uchiha Clan. So he is afraid that the time it takes to be used to it will only be known after integrating it.
"I hope it won't be too long."
Kakashi murmured, and then he formed a hand seal.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" (Shadow Clone Technique)
It is obviously extremely difficult for one person to change his own eyes. Therefore, a shadow clone is needed to aid him.
As for the method of integrating the Mangekyō Sharingan, Kakashi has learned from about it from the stone monument of the Uchiha Clan.
Although the stone tablet has been changed by Black Zetsu, the method of integrating the eternal Mangekyō Sharingan is not changed.
The shadow clone looked at Kakashi, nodded, and then placed one hand on the seal scroll.
"Kai!"
With a bang, a bottle of green liquid appeared in front of Kakashi.
Inside the green liquids, there are two scarlet Sharingans floating slowly.
"Success or failure depends on this."
Kakashi took a deep breath, lifted the forehead protector from his left eye, and at the same time, lifted the Four Symbols Seal on his left eye.
Inside his scarlet Sharingan, the black dart pattern slowly spins and seemed to be somewhat excited.
The field of vision of Kakashi's left eye is already blurred at this time. And the eye is almost blind.
"Okay, let's start."
Upon hearing the words, the shadow clone took out the left eye in the green liquids. As for the remaining right eye, it was still in the bottle, and at the same time it was sealed into the scroll again.
Kakashi only intends to integrate his left eye to achieve the eternal Mangekyō Sharingan this time. As for the right eye, it is temporarily out of Kakashi's consideration.
There are two reasons for this.
One is that after the integration of the Sharingan, there will be a period of recovery for the eyes, and during this time, the Sharingan cannot be used.
If he transplants both of his eyes, it does not matter for his left eye as it is originally sealed and covered with his forehead protector. But as for the right eye, the problem is big.
Kakashi can't change the Sharingan back to normal eye. When his right eye turns into Sharingan, people would know that he got new Sharingan.
Therefore, transplanting his right eye can only be temporarily put down.
After the left eye finished integrating, he will consider it again.
The shadow clone's right hand is covered with green Chakra, he then wrapped Mikaze's left eye in it, and then his right hand slowly approached Kakashi's left eye.
Kakashi didn't have any fear and just stared straight into that eye.
The shadow clone also covered his left hand with green Chakra and placed it on Kakashi's head.
Mikaze's left eye gradually touched Kakashi's left eye.
Next, an incredible scene happened!
After Mikaze's Sharingan touched Kakashi's left eye, a shattering sound rang.
Immediately afterwards, Mikaze's Sharingan shattered like glass!
Then it slowly enter Kakashi's left eye!
"Argh!"
The intense pain caused Kakashi to scream involuntarily.
The pain is like stabbing glass shards into his eyes!
Kakashi gripped his clothes tightly and clenched his teeth.
The intense pain lasted for about half an hour before the integration of the eye finally ended.
Mikaze's left eye had completely disappeared at this time, and it looks like it had never existed.
But blood was dripping on Kakashi's left eye at this time!
However, the painful expression on Kakashi's face has disappeared and replaced with joyful expression.
"Success! This feeling! I can feel that Mangekyō Sharingan's power is being absorbed by my left eye." Kakashi joyfully said.
The shadow clone took out the bandage that was prepared in advance, and wrapped Kakashi's left eye with it. The blood then slowly stopped.
"This feeling is so wonderful, the pupil power of the two is constantly merging, and new terrifying power seems to be slowly awakening."
Kakashi exclaimed.
But soon, Kakashi frowned again.
"This integration speed seems to be a bit too slow."
Kakashi could feel that the integration of the two eyes at this time is at the speed of snail crawling.
'Is it because I don't have the Physique of the Uchiha Clan so that the speed of the integration is slow?' Kakashi secretly thought.
And at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
Kakashi suddenly felt a pain in his left eye. He covered his left eye with one hand, and put the other hand on the ground.
"Damn it! Sure enough, there is still rejection!"
Report chapter
The rejection reaction continued to occur in Kakashi's left eye. This rejection reaction is much more serious than when he had just got the Sharingan.
As the unique Kekkei Genkai of the Uchiha Clan, Sharingan is not something ordinary person can control.
Throughout the Naruto World, the only outsider who can use it to the point of perfection is Kakashi.
Although Kakashi often collapse after using it in the original work, this is something ordinary people won't be able to achieve.
The Uchiha Clan has experienced three Shinobi World Wars. There is no way the Sharingan never fall to the other Great Shinobi Villages.
So why haven't there been any Sharingan user in other villages?
Even Byakugan which is almost impossible to get as only the main branch can be stolen still fall to the hands of Kirigakure. So why is there no Sharingan in other villages?
The reason is simple. It is because the rejection reaction of Sharingan is so strong that it is far beyond the control of non-Uchiha Clan Shinobi.
From before till now, Kakashi was the only one who suppressed and tamed the Sharingan with his powerful talent.
Although it almost exhausted the original Kakashi's full potential.
As for Danzo, he is only able to do it because of the power of Hashirama's cells. Even so, he can only use the Sharingan to activate Izanagi.
It can be seen that Sharingan's repulsive power is by no means acceptable to the average person.
Originally, Kakashi was able to use a Mangekyō Sharingan, which is the limit for his body, and now that two Mangekyō Sharingan fused together to achieve the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, the rejection reaction become even stronger.
The originally Obito's Sharingan has been integrated with Kakashi, but at this time, after being influenced by the Mikaze's Sharingan, the originally integrated Sharingan is also starting to have rejection.
"It can't go on like this."
Kakashi is anxious, but at this time he can't think of any solution.
'If this continues, I'm afraid that this integration will be a failure. At that time, the two Mangekyō Sharingan will be scrapped, and the loss will be too big.'
At this moment, the silver-white Cursed Seal on Kakashi's back suddenly flashed with a burst of white light.
The silver-white Chakra instantly released into Kakashi's body.
"This is..."
Kakashi was astonished. He could clearly see that the silver-white Chakra followed the Chakra Pathway System inside his body and slowly moved towards the Sharingan.
Inside the silver-white Cursed Seal, one of the few silver-white Chakra that had just been merged had disappeared in an instant.
When the silver-white Chakra poured into Sharingan's Chakra Pathway System, Kakashi only felt that there was a cool feeling in his left eye, and the original sharp pain disappeared in an instant!
The integration process that has been interrupted was carried out again.
"What is going on? Why does Senjutsu Chakra offset this rejection?"
Kakashi was a little puzzled, but after thinking about it for a moment, he couldn't find the answer.
When the crisis was lifted, Kakashi felt that the rejection reaction had not completely disappeared, but with the help of the silver-white Chakra, it was no longer as strong as before.
At this time, Kakashi can feel that if his Senjutsu fusion is completely successful, the rejection will also disappear completely.
At that time, Kakashi might be able to completely use the Sharingan like the Uchiha Clan's members. At that time, there is no need to use the Four Symbols Seal to seal the Sharingan.
The integration of Sharingan has not been completely successful yet, so right now, Kakashi is temporarily unable to seal the Sharingan and can only use the medical gauze to wrap his left eye. But, he still covered his left eye with his forehead protector.
However, in doing so, Sharingan will remain in a normally open state and the Chakra's consumption can't be stopped.
And now that the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan is in a normally open state, it can be said that Kakashi's Chakra reserve has been sealed more than half by this Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
Kakashi secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, he only transplanted one Sharingan. If he also transplanted his right eye, his current Chakra reserve would only reach Chunin level. At that time, he won't be able to do anything.
"I didn't expect the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan to consume so much more Chakra than Mangekyō Sharingan. It's really troublesome."
Kakashi sighed helplessly. This Kekkei Genkai's problem is really making him helpless.
It is not easy to solve it.
Fortunately, Kakashi's Senjutsu Chakra fusion seems to have an ability to solve this problem, so it is worth looking forward to.
"In any case, the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan is basically completed. Next, I just need to wait for it to be fully integrated."
Kakashi removed the shadow clone and was in a good mood.
Although there were so many changes during the middle, it was all worthwhile because it succeed.
Using Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder God Technique), Kakashi returned to Konoha again.
At this time, the sky is still dark, so Kakashi lay on the bed and fell asleep again.
The mental fatigue caused by the integration of Sharingan is not that big.
By the time Kakashi woke up, it was already at noon.
Scratching his silver-white hair, Kakashi climbed out of bed.
"It's really tiring."
After lunch, Kakashi was lazily basking in the sun in his yard, reading "Icha-Icha Paradise", but his door was knocked.
"Kakashi-sensei! Are you there?"
Kakashi was slightly surprised when he heard this. 'This voice is... Sakura?'
Kakashi got up, put "Icha-Icha Paradise" into his ninja bag, and went to open the door.
After opening the door, he saw Sakura and Sasuke.
At this time, although Sakura and Sasuke's faces still looked little childish, they looked much more mature than before.
The two have grown a lot taller.
Seeing the two, Kakashi couldn't help but think of Naruto.
'I wonder what that kid is doing now.'
Kakashi smiled and said: "Ah, it's the two of you. How do you know that I'm back?"
Sasuke and Sakura both showed surprised expressions when they saw that Kakashi was really in the Hatake Clan Residence.
Sakura then said: "Kakashi-sensei, when I went to see Tsunade-sensei today, she told me about it. As soon as I heard it, I immediately went to find Sasuke, and then we came over together."
Sasuke then said with proud manner: "Kakashi-sensei, it's too much that you didn't even say anything to us when you came back!"
Kakashi smiled and said, "Sorry, I have been back in the past few days. But, there are so many things I need to do, so I can't find you two at that time."
When Sasuke heard this, the grievances in his heart slowly disappeared. After all, Kakashi is the Anbu Commander, so he is busy with a lot of things, and Sasuke probably knows a little about it.
At least compared to his father, Kakashi is a lot busier.
Sakura then said, "Kakashi-sensei, Sasuke didn't mean to blame you, but we all missed you, so..."
"Yeah, I know, since you two are here now, come in and sit down."
Report chapter
The door of the living room is facing the yard. There is a pond in the yard. There is water flowing in the pond and it falls into a bamboo tube. When the water in the bamboo tube is full, it will fall. With a bang, the water falls, and then the bamboo tube will rise again to catch the water, and repeat the same thing again.
It's like the inheritance among Konoha, one generation after another.
In Konoha, not only the inheritance is about strength, but also the inheritance of the will.
This is the so-called teacher and students.
Kakashi, Sasuke and Sakure are sitting in the living room, looks at the scene in the pond.
Kakashi made a pot of tea for Sasuke and Sakura, and then placed the filled cup in front of them.
Kakashi picked up a cup by himself, took a sip, and then said, "Sasuke, Sakura, how have you two been in these two years?"
"Kakashi-sensei, you must know how Tsunade-sensei trained. It's deadly."
Sakura started her telling about her experience with Tsunade while shivering.
In fact, as Tsunade has been exhausted physically and mentally by Hokage's position in the past two years, it is understandable that the time she can squeeze to teach is very small.
So the guidance for Sakura is also simple and crude.
First, a bunch of theoretical books were thrown to Sakura, and then she told Sakura to practice it.
Of course, these are not bad as these belong to the category of Medical Ninjutsu. As someone from Konoha 12, Sakura naturally has no problems in this.
But the other training is the one that make Sakura felt miserable.
This training is called dodging training.
According to Tsunade, as a Medical Shinobi, the most important thing is to protect their own safety.
Therefore, Medical Shinobi must be prepared to dodge attack.
The content of this training is that Tsunade was constantly attacking Sakura, from throwing stones to using her fist directly. After one round, Sakura basically lies on the ground and cannot take care of himself.
Of course, it's not just Sakura alone who gets such good treatment, as Karin is also the same.
The two were equally hard pressed.
It is worth mentioning that after some time, Ino also joined the team of the two and became Tsunade's fourth disciple.
Since then, the medical team has been formally established.
Of course, these three girls' strength has also advanced by leaps and bounds.
After listening to Sakura's narration, Kakashi smiled and said: "Although Tsunade-sama's training method is simple and crude, it is indeed the most suitable training method for the Medical Shinobi. Although there are many sufferings, there are many things that can be obtained. Sakura, you should cherish it."
"I know, Tsunade-sensei is very good to us. But sometimes, her temper is scary."
"Haha, Tsunade-sama is busy with things and so it is normal if her mood fluctuates greatly. By the way, where is Karin?" Kakashi asked.
"I wanted to find the two of them first, but when I went to their apartment, I learned that Karin and Jugo had gone out to perform a mission, and they hadn't come back yet." Sakura said.
"So it's like that. Sasuke, how about you?" Kakashi looked at Sasuke and asked.
Without saying a word, Sasuke directly showed his Sharingan. The three black tomoe are so clear, and they looked full of mystery.
"Good pressure." Kakashi said with a smile.
"Kakashi-sensei, we haven't seen each other for two years. Why don't we have a spar?" Sasuke asked with some eagerness.
In Sasuke's view, a thousand words are not as good as a fight.
Hearing this, Kakashi smiled and said: "Oh? It seems that you are very confident. Okay, then let's go to the seventh training field. My small yard can't withstand our spar."
Hearing Kakashi's agreement, a smile appeared at the corner of Sasuke's mouth.
Sakura was nervous and said: "What? You want to fight with Kakashi-sensei? This..."
"Sakura, fighting against expert can test what you have learned and see where your current limits are," Sasuke said.
"Ah? Since Sasuke-kun said this, then I can only agree." Sakura said after hearing Sasuke's words.
"Haha, let's go."
The three men then went to the seventh training field.
The seventh training field is the place where Team 7 was established.
It is a pity that there is one less familiar person in this familiar place.
Sakura muttered: "I wonder what Naruto is doing now."
When Sasuke heard this, he stopped for a moment, and the figure that looked like a fool came to his mind.
"Don't worry, Naruto is taught by Jiraiya-sama so there is no problem. It is better to worry about yourselves. After all, if you two don't work hard, you may be left behind by Naruto."
"What a joke! I won't be behind by Naruto!" Sasuke said loudly.
With the pride of a genius, Sasuke will definitely not be willing to lag behind Naruto.
"Not bad, then..."
Kakashi said, taking out two bells from his pocket and tied them around his waist.
Both Sakura and Sasuke were taken aback when they saw this.
"Kakashi-sensei, you..."
Kakashi smiled and said: "Remember our first survival training? This time is the same. Your task is to take the bell around my waist. I wonder if this time, will you two succeed or not?"
Both Sakura and Sasuke were taken aback, and then smiled excitedly.
Sasuke said: "Ah, it's really funny, Kakashi-sensei, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep those bells this time."
Sakura took out her glove, put it on her hand, and said: "Kakashi-sensei, this time, I won't let you deal with us easily while reading."
"Good, this time, I will be serious."
Kakashi smiled and stretched out his right hand, the Millennium Sword instantly appeared on his right hand.
Suddenly, a powerful pressure burst out from Kakashi's body.
Both Sakura and Sasuke's expressions turned serious.
He uses his sword!
As Kakashi's students, both Sakura and Sasuke have a certain understanding of Kakashi's swordsmanship.
A very simple summary is that there are hardly enemies surviving after seeing Kakashi's swordsmanship.
Kakashi's swordsmanship is fast, accurate and ruthless, coupled with the powerful Lightning Release, the enemies who fight against this sword will become corpse easily!
Sakura couldn't help but swallowed. 'You're kidding right. Kakashi-sensei wants to use a sword?'
'Isn't the risk factor too big this time?'
Sasuke didn't have much fear. With a grip of his right hand, a long sword appeared in Sasuke's hand.
"Oh? Did you also learn swordsmanship, Sasuke?" Kakashi asked with interest.
Although Kakashi made a training plan for Sasuke, it does not include swordsmanship.
"Of course, the Uchiha Clan's swordsmanship is not weak at all."
Sasuke held the sword tightly in his right hand. His eyes turned scarlet, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit.
"Interesting, then let me see how far you two have grown in these two years. Don't let me down."
"Hehe, I'm afraid it will surprise you, Kakashi-sensei." Sasuke said with a smile.
"Oh? Then let me see it myself."
Kakashi said with a smile as his eye turned crescent.
Report chapter
The wind blew gently in mid-air.
The dead leaves on the ground flew up, swaying to the sky.
There seemed to be an invisible aura between Kakashi and Sasuke, and Sakura, and the atmosphere turned serious at this moment.
Sasuke and Sakura lined up on both sides, looking like they were waiting for something.
Compared to these two who are a little tense, Kakashi is obviously relaxed.
But if they think that Kakashi is careless right now, then it would be a big mistake.
Sasuke looked at Kakashi at this moment to seek a breakthrough.
Sasuke felt that Kakashi was full of loopholes, but he felt that those loopholes were all used to lure the enemy.
'How could this be!'
Cold sweat dripped slowly from Sasuke's forehead.
Sakura also felt the same way.
Kakashi just stood there, but gave Sakura an unbeatable feeling.
The last time the two felt this way was when they faced against Orochimaru during the Chunin Exam.
But now the strength of the two is not the same as before, even if they faced against Orochimaru again this time, these two still have the power to fight.
But now facing Kakashi, the unbeatable feeling appeared in their hearts.
'No, we can't continue like this. Otherwise, I am afraid that even our courage to fight will be crushed!'
Sasuke secretly thought in his heart, and as Chakra went to his eyes, the black tomoe starts spinning, breaking this silence.
The long sword suddenly thrown towards Kakashi!
'Oh? He actually broke my aura pressure lock. Sure enough, Sasuke made a lot of progress in two years. I wonder how strong Sasuke is now.'
Kakashi secretly thought in his heart, and immediately became interested in Sasuke.
As Sasuke didn't follow Orochimaru now, Kakashi is wondering if Sasuke is stronger or weaker than the original Sasuke.
The long sword cut through the stagnant atmosphere, and the originally quiet seventh training field suddenly changed. The atmosphere was filled with killing intent.
Ding!
Kakashi moved the Millennium Sword in his hand, and the long sword was bounced off and flew into the air.
Sasuke's figure then appeared next to the long sword. He grabs the sword with his right hand, and his right hand tightens his grip.
He then waves his right hand!
The long sword slashed down from the air!
The sword right now contains powerful force!
The Millennium Sword move to block the slash!
Ding!
The two swords collided against each other!
"So fast! Both of them were so fast. I didn't expect that Sasuke's Shunshin had already been trained to such an extent."
Sakura who was still in the same place couldn't help but sigh.
In the past two years, Sakura has followed Tsunade, and has rarely given missions, even if she got a mission, it won't be with Sasuke.
Therefore, Sakura doesn't know much about Sasuke's current strength.
Although the two still met sometimes, they would not fight each other.
Therefore, Sakura only has a vague understanding of Sasuke's strength.
Sakura was also amazed to see Sasuke's full power at this moment.
Of course, Sakura was not surprised by Kakashi's strength.
In her mind, Kakashi was inherently outrageous.
"Sasuke, your speed is good, the timing of the sword is also well mastered. It seems that you didn't waste these past two years." Kakashi said with relief.
The corner of Sasuke's mouth curled up. After all, getting Kakashi's praise was a great thing for Sasuke.
"Kakashi-sensei, it's too early to say that!"
Sasuke let out a soft yell, and the long sword in his hand flashed a blue arc!
Kakashi was surprised and muttered: "This is... Chidori?"
Chirp!
The sound of bird chirping rang!
Sasuke's long sword is full of blue currents at this time!
"Chidori!"
Chidori's Lightning Attribute Chakra are refined and distributed on the long sword. If an ordinary person was hit by Sasuke's sword, they may be paralyzed by the Lightning Attribute Chakra.
But it is clear that Kakashi does not belong to this category.
On the Millennium Sword, the Lightning Attribute Chakra was also overflowing, and the Millennium Sword also turned blue at this moment!
Clank!
Kakashi waves his sword and Sasuke's long sword was blocked easily!
Not to be outdone, Sasuke release his long sword, caught it with his left hand, and slashed down again.
Kakashi's right foot moved a little bit as Kakashi dodged the slash. Kakashi then turned around, and slashed his sword towards Sasuke's right arm.
Sasuke quickly move his feet, and slid away to avoid it!
The long sword in his left hand did not stand still at all. When his body turned, he spins quickly like a top, forming a whirlwind-like net of swords!
Kakashi is not anxious. Facing the whirlwind-like net of swords, his sword stabbed into it!
Ding!
Another clashing sound rang as the Millenium Sword and the long sword collide again!
The whirlwind-like net of swords also came to an abrupt end!
Kakashi threw a kick towards Sasuke's chest.
Sasuke was shocked and quickly returned to defense, putting both of his hands to the front of his chest.
Bang!
Kakashi kicked Sasuke's palms, and the powerful force made Sasuke blown away!
Sasuke performs a backflip and landed near Sakura.
"Sasuke-kun, are you okay?" Sakura asked with concern.
Sasuke shook his head and stared at Kakashi with eyes full of excitement.
"Good, you have been able to apply such a detailed application of Chidori. It is worthwhile to teach you this Ninjutsu. Your swordsmanship is also very good." Kakashi praised once again.
Sasuke showed a smile and said: "I said, it is still too early!"
After Sasuke finished speaking, his hands formed hand seals!
Kakashi's pupils shrank, 'That hand seal is…'
"Lightning Release Armor! Activate! "
Facing Kakashi, Sasuke didn't hold back, because it is unnecessary.
Sasuke knows that even if he uses his full power, he might not be able to hurt Kakashi, and if he holds back, he would have no chance of winning.
There is no need for him to hold back, because Sasuke is very clear about Kakashi's strength.
Kakashi is very strong!
So, as soon as they fight, Sasuke showed his trump cards.
After using Lightning Release Armor, Sasuke's aura suddenly changed!
"The Second Stage of Lightning Release Armor? Amazing. In just two years, he is able to use it to this point. Although he hasn't completely mastered it, it's already worthy of praise."
Kakashi muttered.
Kakashi never doubted Sasuke's talent. But it really surprised Kakashi that it took Sasuke two years to reach this level.
If Yondaime Raikage knew this, Kakashi didn't know what his expression would be, but it must be very interesting.
After all, he has practiced this Ninjutsu for most of his life. Now that a fifteen-year-old boy was able to use it to this level, his expression would be very interesting.
"Kakashi-sensei, let's go!"
A smile appeared on Sasuke's face. The powerful feeling brought by the Lightning Release Armor made Sasuke full of confidence at this time.
'With this power, even Kakashi-sensei would not dare to be careless.'
Sakura on the side looked at Sasuke's back with surprised expression.
"Is this Sasuke-kun's current strength? Amazing! Sure enough, I am still much behind Sasuke-kun." Sakura felt bitter, but soon, she was filled with endless fighting spirit.
"No, I must become stronger! Only in this way can I stand by Sasuke-kun's side!"
At this moment, Sakura's eyes became extremely firm.
Report chapter
Whoosh!
Sasuke left behind an afterimage and stormed towards Kakashi!
Ding Ding Ding!
The sound of steel colliding continued to sound as the two has clashed no less than a hundred times!
Their speed is very fast, compared to before, it has increased to another level!
However, no matter how fast Sasuke is, Kakashi can always keep up with him.
"Kakashi-sensei's speed is so fast. Even after using Lightning Release Armor, he can still block my attack easy!"
Sasuke was surprised. Although he knew that Kakashi was strong, he did not expect Kakashi to block his attack so easily after he uses the Lightning Release Armor.
Kakashi has a look of appreciation as he look at Sasuke. Sasuke's strength at this time definitely has reach Jonin-level, and if he can master the Lightning Release Armor more proficiently, he will able to get close to Kage-level.
Although he can't use Orochimaru's weird Ninjutsu, this Sasuke has embarked on another path to become stronger.
A path very similar to Kakashi.
Sharingan! Lightning Release! Swordsmanship!
Sasuke seems to blindly imitate Kakashi.
Although his strength will increase very quickly in the early stage, it may be unfavorable in the later stage.
No, in Naruto World, Sasuke will get a lot of things that will make him stronger in the later stage!
The Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan that he got easily, and then the power of Six Path that he will also got easily.
Thinking of this, Kakashi can't help but complain a little.
After all, as the reincarnation of the Indra, he got the same treatment as Naruto that will make them get stronger easily.
When Kakashi thought of this, Kakashi felt that this world is really not fair.
Although he didn't know what will happen in the future, he knew that right now he still needs to guide Sasuke to become stronger.
'Kakashi-sensei is really strong!' Sasuke secretly thought in his heart.
"Sasuke, if you continue like this, you won't get the bell." Kakashi chuckled, and then he waved the sword in his hand.
"Hatake Clan Sword Technique: Thunder Moon!"
Blue moon arc appeared around Kakashi, forming a barrier. No matter how fierce Sasuke's attack was, he couldn't penetrate this barrier.
'Defensive sword technique? It got such a really powerful defensive power.' Sasuke secretly thought. He then takes a back step, avoiding the blue moon arc's defensive circle.
"Sasuke, that's not enough, and, Sakura, till when are you going to watch? Have you forgotten about teamwork?" Kakashi said.
Sakura was taken aback when she heard Kakashi's words and then she looked at Sasuke.
In fact, Sakura wanted to join forces with Sasuke before, but Sakura knew that Sasuke wanted to fight Kakashi alone, so she kept watching and didn't do anything.
After hearing Kakashi's words, Sakura become a little embarrassed. 'Should I join now? Or should I continue to watch Sasuke-kun and Kakashi-sensei fight?'
Sasuke naturally knows why Sakura didn't join. At this moment, he didn't stubbornly insist on going up alone, so he said, "Sakura, let's fight together. Kakashi-sensei is too strong. I can't get the bell by myself. "
Hearing this, Sakura was overjoyed, and immediately said: "Yes! Sasuke-kun!"
"Very good, then, this test officially starts. Let me see what you two have learned in these past two years." Kakashi said with a smile.
Sasuke and Sakura looked at each other, and then Sakura rushed towards Kakashi.
A large number of Chakra are gathered on her right fist. Through careful operation, this gathered Chakra becomes a powerful force!
Boom!
A loud noise rang as Sakura's fist hit the ground directly!
With the fist as the center, the ground cracked all around and quickly spread to Kakashi's feet.
Kakashi quickly jumped into the air.
At this time, Sasuke put his hands into his ninja bag. He took out dozens of kunai and shuriken, and threw them out!
The dozens of kunai and shuriken flew towards Kakashi.
Even if he is in the air at this moment, Kakashi didn't panic. The Millennium Sword in his hands constantly moved, and the dozens of kunai and shuriken are blocked easily.
But it's not over yet. Sasuke jumped into the air, and then he slashes his sword towards Kakashi.
Ding!
In midair, the two clashes again.
Sasuke jumped from the ground so he got powerful force, and as Kakashi is in the air, he didn't have enough strength to block the attack.
With a crisp sound, Kakashi's figure blown away and slammed into a tree.
Sasuke didn't have any time to be happy as he heard a bang and then Kakashi's body turned into a log!
"Crap! It's Kawarimi no Jutsu!" Sasuke exclaimed.
'When is it?' Even with Sharingan, Sasuke did not find out when Kakashi used the Kawarimi no Jutsu.
"As a Shinobi, you need to stay calm at all times."
Kakashi's voice came from behind Sasuke, making Sasuke surprised.
"Sasuke-kun! Be careful!" cried Sakura who was still on the ground.
But it's too late!
Kakashi threw a palm strike with his left hand towards Sasuke's waist.
Boom!
With a loud sound, Kakashi's palm strike hit Sasuke firmly, The Lightning Release Armor immediately dissipated and Sasuke's body is falling towards the ground!
Seeing this, Sakura hurriedly moved towards the place where Sasuke would fall!
Boom!
The ground under Sakura's feet shattered, and Sakura's body rushed towards Sasuke's location. Sakura was able to hug Sasuke before he landed, and then the two landed on the ground together, forming a large hole and causing smoke to scatter around.
Upon seeing this, Kakashi showed a smile, and secretly thought: 'Sure enough, Sakura's feelings for Sasuke didn't changed at all. I wonder what the current Sasuke's feeling towards Sakura.'
The smoke dissipated, and Sakura who was princess carrying Sasuke appeared.
"Sasuke-kun, are you okay?" Sakura asked.
Sasuke was a little embarrassed for a while, mainly because this posture made Sasuke very uncomfortable.
Sasuke immediately stood up and said, "I'm okay."
Kakashi naturally wouldn't be merciless towards Sasuke. Even if Sasuke fall without being helped by Sakura just now, he would only be at pain, and there would be no serious injuries.
The two looked at Kakashi who is not far away, and saw that Kakashi's clothes are not messy at this moment, and he looked very relaxed.
Upon seeing this, the two felt a little helpless, 'Sensei, you are so strong, it is kind of cheating.'
In fact, Kakashi didn't use any formidable techniques at this moment, and just dealt with these two with his speed.
It's just that in the Shinobi World, there are not many people who can keep up with Kakashi's speed.
Although Sasuke was able to use the Lightning Release Armor, he hasn't mastered it yet. So, it will take a while before he can keep up with Kakashi's speed.
"Sakura, Kakashi-sensei's speed is too fast. We have to think of a way," Sasuke said.
"Kakashi-sensei's speed is really a big problem, but how can this be solved?" Sakura asked.
"If Kakashi-sensei uses his full power, we naturally have no chance, but at this time, I am afraid that Kakashi-sensei didn't even use half of his strength so we still have a chance." Sasuke looked at Kakashi as he muttered in low voice.
"Sasuke-kun, what are you thinking about?" Sakura asked.
The corner of Sasuke's mouth curled up, and he whispered to Sakura's ear: "We only need this."
Kakashi didn't bother them and only watch the two discussed their plan.
It is indeed feels like bullying for Kakashi to deal with these two people with his strength, even if he only has less than half of the Chakra that he usually have.
'So, what kind of battle plan do you have?' Kakashi had some expectations in his heart.
In the battle between Shinobi, in addition to absolute strength, the battle plan is also very important.. There are countless cases of surprising victory even if there is some gap between the strength.

"Can this work?" Sakura asked in a low voice.
Sasuke then whispered: "I don't know, but we have to try it."
"Okay," Sakura said.
"Oh? It seems that you two have finished discussing?" Kakashi said with a smile.
"Kakashi-sensei, you have to be careful now." Sasuke said coldly.
"Interesting." Kakashi said with a smile.
Sasuke glanced at Sakura, Sakura understood Sasuke's gesture, and rushed towards Kakashi!
"Shannarō!"
Sakura shouted as she throws her right fist towards Kakashi again.
Kakashi dodged the punch easily. Although Sakura's fist is very powerful, it didn't have any use if it didn't hit the opponent.
"The power is very good, but the speed is not enough, so it will not reach the opponent." Kakashi commented.
Hearing this, Sakura couldn't help but silently complained in her heart: 'What do you mean that my speed is not enough? Isn't it obvious that your speed is the one that is too abnormal?'
"Shannarō!"
With another shout, Sakura's right fist is lifted high, and then thrown towards Kakashi again!
Kakashi jumped up to the sky, avoiding Sakura's heavy blow.
Boom!
Sakura's fist hit the ground again, causing a huge amount of dust to scatter.
At the same time, the ground shattered again.
"Sakura's Chakra Enhanced Strength is almost as strong as Tsunade-sama's." Kakashi exclaimed.
Even if it is Kakashi, if he was hit by this punch, he will be definitely injured.
Chakra Enhanced Strength seems simple, but it is a technique that requires extremely refined Chakra Control. Compared with ordinary Forbidden Techniques, the difficulty to use it is not that different.
Even Shizune, who was Tsunade's first disciple, couldn't use Chakra Enhanced Strength. But Sakura was able to use it.
This shows that Sakura's talent is amazing in this area.
Of course, it doesn't rule out that maybe Tsunade didn't teach Chakra Enhanced Strength to Shizune. But if that is the case, Sakura's identity is somewhat intriguing for Tsunade to taught her this technique.
After all, when it comes to feelings, Shizune has better relationship with Tsunade than Sakura. So, it is somewhat unlikely for Tsunade to taught Sakura Chakra Enhanced Strength, but did not teach Shizune.
Perhaps only Tsunade knew the truth.
This thought just flashed through Kakashi's mind for a moment, because what he faced next was Sasuke's fierce attack!
"Slash!"
Sasuke's body appears in the sky, holding the sword with both of his hands, he slashes it down!
Kakashi didn't dodge it, and blocked it with the Millennium Sword!
Ding!
The two swords then collided again!
Although the Uchiha Clan's swordsmanship is not as good as Hatake Clan's, it is still very good.
In the past two years, Sasuke has also practiced this swordsmanship in addition to completing the training plan given by Kakashi.
It is because Sasuke saw the powerful power of swordsmanship in Kakashi.
There are not many swordsmen in the Uchiha Clan, even Fugaku is just better at using kunai.
In the past, the Uchiha Clan had a master in swordsmanship, that is, Shisui. But now, Shisui is no longer in the Uchiha Clan.
Therefore, at this time, Sasuke's swordsmanship is more of a self-learning Uchiha Clan's swordsmanship after learning basic swordsmanship.
"Wow, what a powerful blow." Kakashi landed on the ground and couldn't help but surprised.
"Kakashi-sensei, now is not the time to be distracted!"
Sakura attack again, punching the ground!
Boom!
The surface of the ground cracks again!
With a total of three punches, Sakura destroyed the ground of the seventh training field!
Kakashi felt that something is a bit strange, 'What is Sakura trying to do?'
'Why is she destroying the ground?'
But before Kakashi can think of an answer, Sasuke's offensive struck again!
"Raiton: Sanda!" (Lightning Release: Thunder)
Powerful Lightning sparks rushed towards Kakashi.
Not to be outdone, a ray of Lightning appeared in Kakashi's left hand!
"Chidori!"
The sparks released by Sasuke was directly shattered by Kakashi's Chidori!
"What!"
Sasuke was surprised, he had never seen anyone shattering his Lightning Release like this.
This can be done because of Kakashi's superb control ability over Lightning Release. If ordinary people tried to do this, they will only worsen their situation.
At this moment, Sakura finished forming hand seals and said: "Suiton: Mizurappa!" (Water Release: Wild Water Wave)
Kakashi was startled, 'Water Release? When did Sakura learn to use Water Release Ninjutsu?'
Sakura spewed out water from her mouth, and countless waves of water rushed towards Kakashi!
Kakashi wanted to escape, but Sasuke seemed to have expected it, and dozens of kunai appeared in his hands again!
With a flick of his hands, countless kunai shot out again, colliding with each other in mid-air, and then Kakashi's retreat path was completely sealed!
"Is this planned by them?"
Kakashi narrowed his eyes. He tried to move his feet, but the ground is already shattered.
"Water Release? Shattered ground? So it's like that."
The corner of Kakashi's mouth curled up as he had a plan in his mind.
With a move of the Millennium Sword, the flying kunai were instantly bounced away, and at this moment, the water waves rushed over!
Kakashi was directly drenched by the water. His feet become unstable and then he fell directly to the ground.
After the water fell to the ground, the shattered ground directly turned muddy!
Sasuke's eyes lit up, and he quickly formed hand seals!
"Katon: Ryūka no Jutsu!" (Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique)
A huge fire dragon spouted out from Sasuke's mouth. However, the target was not Kakashi, but the ground!
Under the scorching high temperature, the ground that was muddy hardened instantly, and a burst of rising water vapor suddenly appeared!
The water vapor dissipated, and Kakashi's legs were already buried on the ground!
Water Release and shattered ground formed muddy ground that submerged more than half of Kakashi's body, and then with the scorching high temperature of Sasuke's Fire Release, the muddy ground directly turned back into hard ground again.
Kakashi didn't have time to dodge, and it became the situation right now.
Sasuke and Sakura were both overjoyed when they saw this, and then, they landed in front of Kakashi.
"Kakashi-sensei, we won this time. Sasuke-kun, our plan is successful!" Sakura said excitedly.
Sasuke also smiled at this moment.
Kakashi smiled and said: "Well, very good combat plan. But what I didn't expect was that Sakura actually learned Water Release. It is really surprising me."
"Kakashi-sensei, you must have underestimated me. I have tested my Chakra Attribute. Not only I have Water Chakra Attribute, but I also have the Earth Chakra Attribute," Sakura said proudly.
"Really? To have two innate Chakra Attribute, your talent is really amazing." Kakashi said with a smile.
Sasuke then said: "Kakashi-sensei, you don't know about Sakura's ability to use Water Release Ninjutsu, so you don't care about the shattered ground. Otherwise, you would see through this plan at a glance. But unfortunately, right now, the victory belongs to us."
Sasuke said, reaching out to grab the bells on Kakashi's waist.
A smile appeared at the corner of Kakashi's mouth and then he said: "One of Shinobi's basic technique, Ninjutsu!"
Sasuke's pupils shrank, and he said in surprise: "Crap!"
Report chapter
Kakashi, who was half buried, suddenly turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared.
Both Sasuke and Sakura were surprised when they saw this.
"Doton: Shinjū Zanshu no Jutsu!" (Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique)
'Crap!'
Sasuke secretly thought, but it was too late.
In the next second, Sasuke and Sakura's bodies sank down to the ground at the same time, leaving only leaving their heads above the ground.
Kakashi's figure quietly emerged and he stood in front of the two.
"Haha, is this considered karma?" Kakashi said with a smile.
Sasuke and Sakura looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
Just now, the two wanted to bury Kakashi in the ground, but they didn't expect Kakashi that not only Kakashi was able to escape, they were also buried instead.
The karma came a little too soon.
"Kakashi-sensei, when did you use the shadow clone?" Sasuke asked curiously.
"When? You should try to guess." Kakashi smiled wickedly.
Sasuke didn't feel annoyed when he heard this. Instead, he thought about it carefully. Suddenly, he thought of something and said: "Was it when I fell to the ground and saved by Sakura? There was a huge smoke rising up, so even if you used the shadow clone, we wouldn't notice it."
"Bingo, that's correct, but unfortunately, there is no reward." Kakashi said with a smile.
Both Sasuke and Sakura are secretly annoyed. They didn't expect that the plan the two of them thought about for a long time would fail like this.
"Well, the test ends here. How do I say, I am very happy to be your teacher." Kakashi said with a smile.
Sasuke and Sakura were taken aback when they heard this, and looked at Kakashi.
Kakashi then continued: "Although you two didn't get the bells, you have made great progress in terms of strength and combat plan. Sakura's Chakra Enhanced Strength is very powerful, but the speed is not enough and needs to be improved. As for Water Release, I didn't think that you would have the talent in this area, so it might be better to develop it. Don't stop training it."
Hearing this, Sakura said: "Yes! Kakashi-sensei!"
"As for Sasuke, your Lightning Release, Shunshin, Swordsmanship, they are all excellent. But Sasuke, do you want to be yourself or become the second me?" Kakashi looked at Sasuke and asked.
Hearing this, Sasuke can only stay silent. He then thought that his development path seems to be exactly the same as Kakashi.
"Sasuke, you are very similar to me, whether it is from Chakra Attributes or Sharingan, so it is inevitable that there will be overlapping development paths. However, when you reach a certain level, you must try to find a path that belongs to yourself. After all, my path is only for my own. And you, Sasuke Uchiha, have your own way to become stronger, do you understand?"
Sasuke nodded and said: "I understand, Kakashi-sensei."
"Very good. Now that the test is over, let's go eat together and celebrate!"
Kakashi said as he slammed his right foot to the ground hardly. And then, Sakura's and Sasuke's body instantly rise out of the ground.
"Yes! Kakashi-sensei!"
The teacher and the two students have not seen each other for two years, so this meal was naturally very pleasant.
Sakura and Sasuke talked to Kakashi about what happened in the past two years, and Kakashi gave advises about the training of the two.
As the night darkened, the three of them finally dispersed.
"Ah, it would be great if life could be like this forever."
Kakashi then touched his left eye. He knew that this kind of life would not last for long.
In the dark base underground, Obito is standing silently.
Zetsu come out of the ground and said with a hoarse voice: "Obito, Kakashi has returned to Konoha."
When Obito heard this, his body shook a little and he said: "Oh? After disappearing for two years, is he finally back? Do you know where he went for these past two years?"
Zetsu answered: "I don't know, Kakashi went out with Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder God Technique) this time, so I couldn't track him at all."
"Hiraishin no Jutsu? It's a really troublesome Ninjutsu," Obito coldly said.
He still remembers the damage that Ninjutsu brought him.
That was the only time he was injured after becoming the fake Uchiha Madara.
"Then, is there any change in Kakashi?" Obito asked.
"The distance is too far for me to feel it. It seems that he is a little different, but I can't really tell."
"Forget it, leave him alone. He is just a loser. How about Akatsuki?"
"Everything is going smoothly. The fundraising is about to come to an end. After another year, we should be able to enter the final stage."
"Very good, I finally reached this point."
"Obito, what should I do next?"
"You should help Akatsuki. Continue to inquire the information about Bijuu and then when the time is right, the Akatsuki can start to collect it."
"Okay."
After Zetsu finished speaking, he sank into the ground again.
In the darkness, Obito's right eye is very scarlet, and the black tomoe is slowly spinning.
"Kakashi, we will meet again soon. I wonder what are you gonna do when we met."
The underground base once again fell into silence. The Gedō Mazō is standing there, seems to be waiting for something.
At the Hokage Tower, Tsunade frowned as she looked at the scroll in front of her.
"Shizune, go and call Kakashi."
"Eh? Oh, okay."
Shizune went to Anbu Base and summoned Kakashi to the Hokage Tower.
Kakashi felt that something is bit strange, but still go to the Hokage Tower.
"Tsunade-sama, what's the matter?" Kakashi asked.
Tsunade didn't answer, but threw a scroll to Kakashi.
"This is?"
"Look at it."
Kakashi opened the scroll in confusion. He then saw that this scroll is about someone asking for help.
Kakashi's pupils shrank after reading the content.
"Is Shikaku-senpai and his team in trouble?"
Kakashi asked in low voice.
"Yeah, maybe so. For someone like Shikaku to ask for help, it seems that they are in serious trouble."
"Didn't he go to the Land of Flowers?" Kakashi muttered.
"Look at this next." Tsunade handed another scroll to Kakashi.
Kakashi took a look. He instantly frowned, and said: "Orochimaru also went to the Land of Flowers?"
"Yes, Shikaku's troubles are very likely to be related to Orochimaru. The only one in the village who can fight against Orochimaru is you. Also, Karin and Jūgo who are on Shikaku's team are also your students. So, I will leave it to you!'
"Okay!" Kakashi answered.
"Right, for this mission, I want you to bring Sasuke and Sakura with you."
"I understand!"
"Good, you can go," Tsunade said.
Kakashi nodded and disappeared from the Hokage's office.
Shizune who is on the side then asked: "Tsunade-sama, what's Shukaku's mission this time? How can it attract Orochimaru to go there?"
"It is related to an artifact, so Orochimaru naturally would go there."
"What? Artifact?" Shizune said in surprise.
Report chapter
At Sasuke's house, Sasuke was getting to go out. Seeing this, Fugaku asked: "Sasuke, where are you going?"
Sasuke turned around and said: "Tou-san, I am going to perform mission with Kakashi-sensei and Sakura."
"Oh? Is Kakashi going on a mission? It's really rare." Fu Yue was a little surprised.
Logically speaking, for someone at Kakashi level, there is almost no need to perform mission.
Unless it is their own request, also perhaps some special mission.
But if it's a special mission, he shouldn't bring Sasuke.
"Yeah, Kakashi-sensei didn't elaborate and just told us go to the seventh training field, and then we would go out of the village," Sasuke said.
"In that case, you can go." Fugaku said.
"Yes, tou-san. Please tell kaa-san about this."
"Don't worry."
Hearing this Sasuke finished packing his ninja bag and go out of the house.
Looking at Sasuke's back, Fugaku smiled.
Although Sasuke is not as good as Itachi, Fugaku is very pleased to see Sasuke's growth right now.
"I wonder how far Sasuke can grow under Kakashi's training. Moreover, looking at Kakashi's previous actions, I am afraid that there will be a big war in the future. The Uchiha Clan should also be prepared."
Fugaku muttered softly. And then, it seemed that he has made a decision and left the house.
The three member of Team Kakashi assembled at the seventh training field at this time.
"This time, our mission is to go to the Land of Flowers to support Shikaku-senpai's Team 9. Although the specific situation is not clear, our opponent this time is probably Konoha's missing-nin, one of the former Sannin, Orochimaru." Kakashi said.
Sakura and Sasuke were shocked when they heard this as they didn't expect their opponent this time would be that guy.
The encounter in the Forest of Death back then made the two of them have a deep impression of this name, and it can even be said that they are a little fearful of Orochimaru.
Sasuke touched his neck, and there is a mark there.
It was the Cursed Seal that Orochimaru planted on Sasuke.
Kakashi hasn't mastered the Senjutsu of Ryūchi Cave when Sasuke got this Cursed Seal, so he couldn't do anything about this Cursed Seal.
Seeing Sasuke's action, Kakashi asked: "Sasuke, has the Cursed Seal on your neck caused any trouble for these two years?"
Sasuke shook his head and said, "No, Kakashi's seal is very strong. So there is no problem with the Cursed Seal."
When Kakashi sealed Sasuke's Cursed Seal, Kakashi was afraid that the effect of Evil Sealing Method was not enough, so he specially added the Senjutsu Chakra. Therefore, it is normal for the curse seal to not react at all.
Kakashi thought for a while, and then said: "Sasuke, Orochimaru's unique Chakra is mixed in this Cursed Seal, so it is not easy to expel. However, this Cursed Seal also contains terrifying power, which is like a double-edged sword. Before, your strength was too weak, so I was afraid that you could not control it. But seeing your growth, I believe you can do it now. Therefore, I plan to weaken the seal a bit so that you can release Cursed Seal's power."
Hearing this, Sasuke didn't show excited expression, and asked: "Kakashi-sensei, is this Cursed Seal's power the same as Jūgo?"
Kakashi nodded and said: "Yes, Orochimaru's Cursed Seal is originally based on Ryūchi Cave's Senjutsu, but it was perfected after getting Jūgo's blood. Therefore, this Cursed Seal has the power of the Sage like Jūgo."
Hearing this, Sasuke could not help but remember about the times when Jūgo fight before. In that form, he is really strong, and normal Jōnin is not his opponent at all.
"I understand, then please do it Kakashi-sensei," Sasuke said.
Sakura asked with some concern: "Kakashi-sensei, is this really okay? I heard that this Cursed Seal will erode human's body."
Kakashi smiled and said: "If Sasuke is still weak, such problem does exist, but with Sasuke's current strength, it is more than enough to resist the erosion of the Cursed Seal, and fighting against this erosion will make Sasuke grow even stronger."
"It turns out to be like that." Sakura nodded.
"Don't worry, I will add another protection outside the seal. If Sasuke can't control the Cursed Seal, this protection can restrain it," Kakashi said.
"That would be great!" Sakura joyfully said.
"Okay then, let's start."
Sasuke sat down cross-legged. Kakashi then stood behing him and formed hand seals, and then, he gently pressed his palm at the Cursed Seal on Sasuke's neck.
"Kai!"
Kakashi shouted in a low voice. At this moment, the round rune instantly began to fade, but it did not completely disappear.
The originally circle becomes three arcs.
Upon seeing this, Kakashi retracted his palm and said, "Okay, Sasuke, do you feel any difference?"
Hearing this, Sasuke stood up and showed an excited expression.
"This feeling...It's as if there is a powerful force suddenly added to my body!"
Sasuke said, and the marks began to crawl out of the Cursed Seal, and then Sasuke's body was covered with the marks.
Sakura was surprised and said: "Kakashi-sensei, this..."
"This is the normal case when using Cursed Seal, and Jūgo also has such signs," Kakashi explained.
Kozakura was stunned when she heard this. But, when she thought about it carefully, she remembered that it seemed that it was indeed the case when Jūgo used this trick on the Chunin exam.
Sasuke didn't mind the marks on his body, but clenched his fist with excitement.
'This power is really formidable!'
The power that Cursed Seal can provide to the user is not fixed, but multiplies according to user's own abilities.
It's like Sage Mode.
In fact, plainly speaking, Cursed Seal is a simple version of the Sage Mode.
Sasuke hit the ground with a punch, and instantly, a large crack was formed on the ground.
Sakura was surprised when she saw this, and said: "It's so strong! It is almost as strong as my Chakra Enhanced Strength's punch."
"It feels... great." Sasuke said joyfully.
Kakashi smiled and said: "Sasuke, with your current strength, you can only use this Cursed Seal for ten minutes. If you enter Level 2 form, you can only use it for three minutes. If you exceed the time, it will cause damage to your body so you must remember it well."
Hearing this, Sasuke exited the Cursed Seal's mode and said, "Yes, Kakashi-sensei."
"Well, let's leave the Cursed Seal's thing here for the time being. We shouldn't make Shikaku-senpai and the others wait too long."
"Yes! Kakashi-sensei!" Sasuke and Sakura said in unison.
Team Kakashi officially set off.
The Land of Flowers is a small country. Even small Shinobi village does not exist in this country.
Such a country can only be reduced to a battlefield during wartime.
And this time, the mission location is precisely this country.
It has been half a month since Shikaku came to this country with the Team 9, but in this half a month, he hasn't completed the mission yet. It is because there is some change in the mission.
Strong enemies appeared in this country one after another.

"Shikaku-sensei, what should we do next? We don't know where these people came from but their strength is really powerful." Uchiha Houten said.
"Houten, don't worry, I have already asked the village for help, so there will be reinforcements coming soon." Shikaku said with a smile.
"Really? That's great!" Uchiha Houten joyfully said.
"Speaking of which, this reinforcement is someone that Jūgo and Karin very familiar with." Shikaku said, looking at the two people who were silent.
Karin and Jūgo were stunned when they heard this, and they were a little puzzled.
Karin then said: "Someone that I and Jūgo very familiar with? Is there anyone like that in Konoha? Naruto has left Konoha with Jiraiya-sama for almost two years, and no one knows where Kakashi-nii went to. ..."
It seems that a certain possibility appeared in Karin's and Jūgo's mind. At this moment, they showed happy expression.
At this time, the reinforcements coming over naturally cannot be Naruto. Although they didn't know how strong Naruto is after training for these two years, they know that he certainly does not have the strength to solve their current predicament. Then, there is only one person left in Karin's and Jūgo's mind!
"Is it Kakashi-nii?" Karin asked in surprise.
Shikaku smiled and nodded, "Yes, it is Kakashi."
"Really? That's great!" Karin said joyfully, and at the same time, she looked at Shigeo and said, "Jūgo! Kakashi-nii is back!"
" Yeah! Kakashi-nii is finally back!"
The two have never left Kakashi for so long since they followed Kakashi back to Konoha. Even if Kakashi went out before, it was never as long as this time.
Moreover, usually Kakashi will write a letter to them from time to time when he left, but this time, he didn't send anything.
It's like Kakashi suddenly disappeared from this world.
Had it not been for Kakashi's strength and that these two had enough confidence in Kakashi, they would really think that Kakashi is in trouble.
"Ah! What a mess!"
Karin suddenly shouted, making the other three people looked at her strangely.
Shikaku asked: "What's wrong?"
Karin then said with a weeping expression: "When Kakashi-nii left back then, he told us that he hoped that after he came back, we would all become Jonin, but right now, me and Jūgo are still Chunin.
After hearing this, Jūgo also remember about this matter, and felt a little uneasy.
"Yeah! I almost forget about it! We let Kakashi-nii down." Jūgo said as his expression also changed.
Seeing this, Shikaku was taken aback and immediately said with a smile: "Do not worry, Kakashi will not blame you. After all, he said that he will be back after three years. So it's not your fault as this is still two years."
"That's true, but for us to not complete the goal given by Kakashi-nii, I still feel a little unwilling." Karin muttered.
"Don't worry, none of your generation have become a Jōnin, so Kakashi won't blame you. Besides, becoming a Jōnin not only needs strength, it also needs accumulation of completing missions. Although your strength is almost enough, your mission accumulation is still not enough," Shikaku said.
It is true that there is a Chunin Exam for promotion to become a Chunin, but there is no Jōnin exam for the promotion to become a Jōnin.
On one hand, because Chunin is already the main strength component of a village, holding the Jōnin Exam will inevitably lead to death to a lot of Chunin.
No Shinobi Village would be happy to see such unnecessary casualties.
On the other hand, the transition from Chunin to Jōnin is not only a matter of strength, but also an issue of experience.
Naruto in the original work has become the strongest person after fighting Kaguya, but he didn't directly become a Jōnin. It is because he still didn't have enough experience to become a Jōnin.
It can be seen that the gap between Jōnin and Chunin is mainly not in strength, but in experience.
Of course, to accumulate the experience to become a Jōnin, the mission taken needs the strength of a Jōnin to complete.
Therefore, there is no fear that Chunin without strength will become a Jōnin.
Although Shikaku's explanation is true, Karin and Jūgo still feel a little worried.
Shikaku felt a little helpless when he saw this. Kakashi's position in these two's minds are too high, that's why this situation happens.
In this regard, Shikaku can only express envy.
After all, it is a happy thing to get such admiration from the younger generation.
'Then why, as your instructor, I don't see you being so caring about what I say!'
Shikaku couldn't help but silently complain in his heart.
Karin and Jūgo are caught in the emotions of expectation and fear, and cannot calm themselves. At this moment, Kakashi, Sasuke, and Sakura are already on their way to the Land of Flowers.
Suddenly, Kakashi stopped and said, "The Land of Flowers is in front of us."
Sasuke and Sakura also stopped when they heard this.
Seeing the scenery in front of her, Sakura exclaimed: "Wow! So beautiful! The name is really fitting, at first glance, there are flowers all over the place!"
The Land of Flowers is called this is because the environment here is very suitable for flower planting, so there are countless flowers blooming all year round, decorating this country.
And this kind of beautiful scenery, for most women, is irresistible.
"It is indeed a very beautiful country," Kakashi exclaimed.
When Kakashi traveled back then, he also came to this country. He was also surprised by the country's appearance when he saw it for the first time.
If it weren't for things that need to be done, Kakashi really wanted to live in this country.
Well, as for Sasuke, he didn't feel much even after seeing the beautiful scenery.
"Okay, let's go. Shikaku-senpai is still waiting for us."
"Yes! Kakashi-sensei." Sasuke and Sakura said in unison.
Just when the three of them were about to enter the Land of Flowers, Kakashi heard something and immediately said, "Be careful! There is an enemy attack!"
Sasuke and Sakura immediately increased their vigilance upon hearing this, and formed a d-shaped formation with Kakashi!
"Oh? Very good perception, it seems that this time is not a normal trash."
A low voice sounded, and then eight Shinobi suddenly appeared, surrounding Team Kakashi.
"Who are you?" Kakashi said while frowning.
'The three of us have not entered the Land of Flowers, and yet, we have been ambushed. Just how bad is the situation in the Land of Flowers?'
"Who am I? You don't need to know, because soon, you will become a dead person! Hahaha! "
The person who spoke is a middle-aged Shinobi, with a strong body and an arrogant appearance.
Hearing this, Sasuke said with disdain: "Just with you guys?"
"Little brat, you sure are very arrogant. Let me show you how I sent you all to hell! Everyone, attack!" The middle-aged shinobi shout.
Upon seeing this, Kakashi knew that it would be impossible to avoid the battle.
"Sasuke, Sakura, leave that man to me, as for the rest, you can do whatever you want!"
"Yes! Kakashi-sensei!"
As soon as the voice fell, the three of them scattered in an instant!
Report chapter
A cold long sword was placed on the middle-aged Shinobi's neck.
The middle-aged Shinobi looked at the man with the sword in front of him, with a look of horror and fear in his eyes.
Next to him, his companions have already fallen into ground with a pool of blood, and Sakura and Sasuke are already standing next to Kakashi.
Obviously, the battle was over. Team Kakashi were unscathed, and the opponent's Shinobi was wiped out.
"You, you...who are you?" The middle-aged Shinobi asked nervously.
Kakashi looked at the middle-aged Shinobi coldly, and said: "You don't even know me, but you still dare to stop us like this. Tell me, who are you?"
The middle-aged Shinobi swallowed saliva and looked at Kakashi carefully.
Suddenly, the middle-aged Shinobi seemed to think of something, and his body began to tremble. He then stutteringly said: "Could it be... That you, you, you... you are Hatake Kakashi? Konoha's Hatake Kakashi!"
"Oh? It seems that you are not very ignorant, but what I am asking now is, who are you?" Kakashi said coldly, and the sword in his hand moved lightly. Instantly, there was a small blood stain on the middle-aged Shinobi's neck.
"Please stop, I'll say everything!" The middle-aged Shinobi said fearfully.
At this time, the middle-aged Shinobi felt that he is really unlucky.
'According to the rumor, Hatake Kakashi has left Konoha for more than a year, so what is he doing here? How can I meet him here?'
'Did he also come here for that?'
A wave of fear surged in the middle-aged Shinobi's heart. 'If that is the case, can this mission still be completed?'
'In the entire Shinobi World, who can take things from Hatake Kakashi's hands?'
Thinking of this, the middle-aged Shinobi felt really helpless.
In an instant, the middle-aged Shinobi thought about a lot of things, and of course, Kakashi did not know about these thoughts.
"Tell me, who are you, where are you from, and what are you doing here? Why do you want to kill me? If you try to lie, don't blame me for being ruthless." Kakashi said coldly.
"Well, the truth is, I'm from the Fūma Clan. This time, I came to the Land of Flowers to seize an artifact. There were people from Konoha who blocked us before, but we were able to repel them. We estimate that Konoha will send supports. So I was sent here to stop you. But, I didn't expect..."
Kakashi frowned and said: "Fūma Clan? Are you Orochimaru's subordinate?"
The middle-aged Shinobi was surprised and said, "How do you know?"
"Sure enough. So, did Orochimaru also come here?" Kakashi asked.
"This... I don't know." The middle-aged Shinobi said while gritting his teeth.
Compared with Kakashi's legendary fame, the middle-aged Shinobi is more afraid of Orochimaru, because he has personally experienced the horror of Orochimaru.
If he betrayed Orochimaru, he is afraid that it will be more uncomfortable than death.
After all, it should be known that Orochimaru has thousands of ways to torture people.
Looking at the expression of the middle-aged Shinobi, Kakashi knew that this guy must know something, but he refused to say it.
In that case, Kakashi naturally won't be polite.
He takes back his sword and, then hit the neck of middle-aged Shinobi with a hand knife. The middle-aged Shinobi then groaned, and fell down.
"Kakashi-sensei, this guy refuses to tell us the information. What should we do?" Sakura asked.
"As he doesn't want to say it, we naturally have to find a way to make him say it," Kakashi said.
"How to do that?" Sakura wondered.
Kakashi didn't answer, but looked at Sasuke.
Sasuke was stunned and immediately said, "I understand, leave it to me."
After Sasuke finished speaking, the Chakra in his body moved. The scarlet eyes appeared immediately, and the three tomoe kept spinning.
When it comes to asking questions, Sharingan is definitely very useful.
Sasuke grabbed the middle-aged Shinobi and opened his eyelids. Genjutsu was immediately reflected on his eyes.
"It turned out to be using Sharingan's Genjutsu. It's really a good idea. Hey, Kakashi-sensei, why don't you do it yourself? Don't you also have Sharingan? If you do it directly, won't it be better?" Sakura asked in confusion.
Kakashi smiled and said: "Well, the reason I leave it to Sasuke is because it is also an exercise for him, which can make him use Sharingan more skillfully."
"So it's like that. Kakashi-sensei is really thoughtful!"
Kakashi could only smile when he heard Sakura's words, 'It's not like that's the only reason. Right now, I can't use Sharingan at all!
Right now, Kakashi's left eye is just a decoration, no, it's not even a decoration, because it has been covered by the forehead protector.
Not long after, Sasuke release his Sharingan and put down the middle-aged Shinobi.
"Sasuke, what's the situation?" Kakashi asked.
Sasuke looked a little serious and said: "Orochimaru seems to have come. According to the information in this guy's mind, Orochimaru should be coming here within these two days. And, the number of Orochimaru's subordinates who's coming this time is about twenty four people. As a few of them is already dead here, there are still more than a dozen of them left. The leader's name is Guren, followed by the Sound Five, but it seems that only four have come."
"Guren and the Sound Four? Interesting. No wonder Shikaku-senpai is asking for help. If these five people work together, they can really cause considerable trouble to Shikaku-senpai." Kakashi muttered.
"Kakashi-sensei, do you know these five people?" Sakura asked curiously.
"Well, I know about them a little. This Guren is the owner of a Kekkei Genkai, and it is a rare Kekkei Genkai called Crystal Release. This Kekkei Genkai can convert any matter except Chakra into crystals. It is a very terrifying Ninjutsu." Kakashi explained.
"Kekkei Genkai?" Sasuke murmured, with a bit of excitement on his face. After all, fighting against strong opponent is really Sasuke's wish. Only with fighting against strong opponent can he continue to improve.
"As for the Sound Four, they all have Orochimaru's Cursed Seal on their body, but it is not as good as Sasuke's Cursed Seal. But they are more proficient in using it, so they were also opponents that should not be underestimated. Each of these five people has Jōnin-level strength, it seems that our opponents are not weak this time, so be careful," Kakashi said.
Sakura's and Sasuke's expression turned serious when they heard this. After all, from Kakashi's descripsion about these people, they were naturally not weak.
However, Sasuke and Sakura did not have much fear. These people may be really strong, but they are not weak.
In a one-on-one fight, it is unknown who would wins and loses.
"Okay, let's go rendezvous with Shikaku-senpai first. They will be together. As for this guy, Sasuke, carry him on your back and take him with us."
Sasuke looked at the middle-aged Shinobi and instinctively resisted, but as Kakashi said so, he naturally can't oppose it.
"Yes! Kakashi-sensei."
Then, the group of three, plus the captive, continued on their way again!
Report chapter
The Land of Flowers, Daimyo's Mansion.
At this time, Team 9 is living here.
This mission is also the commission of the Daimyo of the Land of Flowers.
"Shikaku-dono, these Shinobi which come out of nowhere, wiped out a small village in my country yesterday. If this continues, the Land of Flowers will not be able to survive!" The Daimyo said angrily.
Anyone who sees such a group of Shinobi wantonly killing people in their own country will not feel happy.
Even if it is a kind country like the Land of Flowers.
Hearing this, Shikaku sighed and said: "Daimyo-dono, I'm sorry, but with our current strength, we won't be able to fight against them. There are so many of them, and their strength is also not weak. Right now, we can only wait for Konoha to send in support. That, we can start to counterattack."
"Konoha's support? Shikaku-dono, when will the person you mentioned come?" The Daimyo asked impatiently.
"They should be coming soon, at most two days later," Shikaku said.
"Really? That's good then. Shikaku-dono, please, I don't want to see the people of my country to be hurt by these beasts anymore!" The Daimyo said solemnly.
"Do not worry, Daimyo-dono, as soon as our reinforcement arrives, we will start the counterattack immediately!" Shikaku promised.
"That's good." Hearing this, the Daimyo was a little relieved.
After all, the Daimyo knew about Konoha's reputation.
Therefore, with Shikaku's assurance, the Daimyo was relieved.
At this time, a soldier ran in and said: "Daimyo-sama, there are three Shinobi outside who claim to be from Konoha, coming here to find Shikaku-sama."
Hearing this, Shikaku felt a little relieved and said: "Daimyo-dono, they should be the reinforcements from Konoha."
Hearing Shikaku's words, the Daimyo was overjoyed and said: "Okay! Bring them in quickly!"
"Yes! Daimyo-sama!"
The soldier left and then brings the three Shinobi to the mansion.
When Shikaku sees the three Shinobi, he said with a smile: "Kakashi, you are finally here, we have been waiting for you for a long time."
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Shikaku-senpai. There was an ambush on the way, which wasted some time." Kakashi said with a smile.
Shikaku frowned. He looked at the unconscious man Sasuke was carrying, and then said: "Ambush? Did they intercept you on the road?"
Kakashi nodded, said: "Yes, there are eight people in total. Except for this person, the rest have been completely wiped out by us."
The Daimyo was overjoyed when he heard that. He didn't expect that Konoha's reinforcements would kill so many enemies as soon as they arrive. He knew that he didn't wait in vain.
'Wait, Kakashi? That name is so familiar. I seem to have heard it somewhere before.'
Hearing this, Shikaku smiled and said: "I didn't expect these people to move so fast to ambush you, but they sure are unlucky."
"Shikaku-senpai, I was the one who was ambushed, so why did you say that they are the one who are unlucky." Kakashi complainly said.
Shikaku laughed and said: "With just these people, I'm afraid that it is not enough to ambush you, Kakashi."
"Shikaku-senpai sure is very confident of me." Kakashi didn't know whether to cry or laugh after hearing that.
"If I don't have confidence in Hatake Kakashi, then I really don't know who I should have confidence in." Shikaku said with a smile.
"Hatake Kakashi?" The Daimyo was shocked after hearing this. He quickly stood up and walked over to Kakashi. He then said, "You are Hatake Kakashi? The one known as The Copy Ninja and Konoha's strongest genius, Hatake Kakashi?"
The exaggerated expression on the Daimyo's face made Kakashi a little bit overwhelmed, but he still replied: "That's me. Why are you asking me like that, Daimyo-dono?"
The Daimyo was overjoyed and said: "Great! If it is Kakashi-dono, the troubles my country is having can definitely be solved! Kakashi-dono, please! You must defeat those shameless Shinobi!"
Hearing this, Kakashi answered: "Don't worry, Daimyo-dono, since Konoha has taken this mission, we'll be responsible to end it."
"That's great! Them, I'll have a banquet for Kakashi-dono!"
Seeing the Daimyo was about to do something, Kakashi quickly said: "Daimyo-dono, don't be anxious like that. I will first discuss with Shikaku-senpai about how to resolve the matter. As for the banquet you said, let's wait until we have resolved the matter before we hold it."
"Good, then I'll leave everything to Kakashi-dono and Shikaku-dono."
"Please be assured, Daimyo-dono," Kakashi said.
"That's good, I am completely relieved after hearing your assurance. Kakashi-dono, Shikaku-dono, then you guys can discuss the matter, I will leave first." The Daimyo said.
"Okay."
The Daimyo left happily. Then, Shikaku smiled and said: "Your reputation sure is different, Kakashi. After hearing your name, the Land of Flowers' Daimyo immediately feels confident in us. Unlike me. "
"Shikaku-senpai, please stop teasing me." Kakashi said helplessly.
Sasuke and Sakura on the side were also full of admiration for Kakashi after seeing the Daimyo's reaction. They didn't expect that Kakashi would have such a great reputation in such a remote place.
Just hearing Kakashi's name is enough to make the Daimyo to be so relieved.
It can be seen that how powerful Kakashi's name actually is.
"Okay, let's stop talking about this. Let's talk about business." Shikaku said with a serious look.
Kakashi nodded and said: "Shikaku-senpai, I just learned from this captive here that this time, four of Sound Five, Guren and some Otogakure's Shinobi come here. And also, Orochimaru seems to be on the way here. "
Hearing this, Shikaku frowned and said: "Orochimaru is coming too? It seems that he also attaches great importance to this matter."
"Indeed, Orochimaru doesn't leave his base easily. For him to leave, it shows that this thing is very attractive to him," Kakashi said.
"Yes, it seems that Orochimaru is unwilling to give up on this artifact." Shikaku muttered.
"By the way, Shikaku-senpai, the letter you wrote also mentioned about the artifact. What exactly is it?" Kakashi asked curiously.
Hearing this, Sasuke and Sakura who were on the sides also looked at Shikaku very curiously.
Shikaku said: "It's the Kusanagi Sword!"
"The Kusanagi Sword?" Kakashi frowned.
"Yes, it's the Kusanagi Sword!"
"I remember that Orochimaru should have a Kusanagi Sword in his hand already. Why did he also want this one?" Kakashi asked in confusion.
"I don't know, but there is some sort of legend about Kusanagi Sword in this country. Perhaps it was because Orochimaru may have heard about this legend that he has the thought to attack the Land of Flowers. It is said that the secret of this Kusanagi Sword is being kept by three people in three villages. And these days, three villages in the Land of Flowers have been destroyed. It should be the village where the secret of this Kusanagi Sword is being kept in the legend."
"So it's like that. It seems that Orochimaru is really interested in the so-called Kusanagi Sword." Kakashi murmured, and then seemed to think of something. He then looked at Sasuke.
'If I remember correctly, in the original work, after Sasuke followed Orochimaru, he did have the so-called Kusanagi Sword.. Is it this one?' Kakashi secretly thought.
Report chapter
Somewhere in the Land of Flowers, the Shinobi of Otogakure gathered in a small village.
"Guren-sama, Kyo and the others who were sent to intercept Konoha's reinforcements today have not come back yet, and there is also no news from them. On the contrary, someone from the Daimyo's Mansion in the Land of Flowers sent some information back, saying that three Konoha's Shinobi had entered the Daimyo's Mansion. At the same time, these three Konoha's Shinobi also brought a Shinobi wearing Kyo's clothes with them. It should be him."
The one this Shinobi is talking to, is Guren who is wearing green clothes and has dark blue hair.
At this time, Guren is completely different from the Guren that Kakashi had seen in Otogakure before. She has grown up, and looked very cold.
Her pair of eyes emits cold light.
"Oh? It seems that that trash Kyo not only failed to intercept Konoha's Shinobi, but his team were also completely wiped out by the other party. He sure is useless." Guren said coldly.
"Guren-sama is right." The Shinobi muttered.
"Guren, now is not to say these things. Orochimaru-sama will be here soon, but we haven't found the whereabouts of the Kusanagi Sword. If this continued, it won't be easy to explain it to Orochimaru-sama." Sakon said coldly.
"Hmph, I don't need you to tell me those things." Guren said while snorting coldly.
"Guren! Orochimaru-sama chooses you to be the leader this time. If this continued, when Orochimaru-sama arrives, I'm afraid that you will be the first one he scold." Tayuya said with a sneer.
"You guys are my subordinate right now, so you just need to obediently do what I say, and that's it. If you are not convinced, you can complain about it to Orochimaru-sama."
Guren said coldly. She then turned and left.
"Damn it! That woman is getting more and more arrogant!" said Kidōmaru.
"After Kimimaro was taken away for secret training by Orochimaru-sama, this woman relied on the trust of Orochimaru-sama to order us around. It is too much!" Tayuya said angrily
She and Guren are both women, and Tayuya also thinks that she is not inferior to Guren, she may be even stronger than Guren. But Orochimaru favors Guren more, which makes Tayuya feels very unhappy.
In fact, it's not just her, the other Sound Four is also very unhappy about this.
"Well, Tayuya, Kidōmaru, that Guren is in position of power, so it makes no sense for us to fight her right now. If we messed up Orochimaru-sama's plan, we will be the one who's gonna be unlucky. Right now, what we need to do is to find the Kusanagi Sword in advance and show Orochimaru-sama our ability. At that time, we will also get Orochimaru-sama's attention!" Sakon said calmly.
Although Sakon is usually hot-tempered, but at critical moments, he has a different calmness.
"Sakon is right, but the information about this Kusanagi Sword is still unclear, and the information about the third village has not been found yet." Tayuya muttered.
At this time, Sakon revealed a smile and said: "Actually, I already found the third village yesterday, and I took some people to destroy it."
"What! You already found it? Why didn't you tell us about it?" Kidōmaru was stunned.
"If too many people know about it, Guren will definitely know. Now that I have the third clue, coupled with the previous two, we can already set out to look for the Kusanagi Sword. Orochimaru-sama should arrive tomorrow afternoon. So we still have time to find it ourselves. Let's go together. We will be the one who find the Kusanagi Sword!" Sakon said excitedly.
Tayuya, Kidōmaru, and Jirōbō were all a little excited when they heard this. In their opinion, if they get the Kusanagi Sword earlier than Guren, they would get more trust from Orochimaru. At that time, they don't have to continue as Guren's subordinate anymore.
"Good job! Sakon, we will set off when it gets dark. We must not let Guren find out about it!"
"Of course. I have already prepared." Sakon said with a smile.
What the four of them didn't notice was that not far from their location, Guren is hiding her presence, listening to all of this quietly.
"Those four are really idiots. Did they think that I really didn't know that Sakon went to destroy the third village? Since you are so enthusiastic, you can go first. When the time comes, I will be the one who will get the Kusanagi Sword. Yeah, I am the only person that Orochimaru-sama will favor. You guys are only my stepping stones."
Guren sneered and left that place.
In Daimyo's Mansion, Kakashi and the other three met the other members of Team 9.
"Kakashi-nii!"
As soon as Karin saw Kakashi, she quickly rushed over. But she seemed to think of something, and didn't hug Kakashi directly like before, but said embarrassedly: "Kakashi-nii, it's been a long time since I last saw you."
Kakashi was taken aback. Seeing Karin's restraint, he couldn't help feeling that it is a bit funny.
'This girl seems to have grown up, and now she has the reservedness of a girl, and she won't climb onto my body as she did before.'
Seeing such a change, Kakashi is somewhat lost, but he felt more gratified.
Kakashi stepped forward and patted Karin's head. He then said, "It looks like you have grown up, Karin."
"Of course! Kakashi-nii, I am amazing now!" Karin who really enjoys being spoiled by Kakashi said proudly.
Kakashi smiled and said nothing.
And at this time Jūgo also stepped forward and said: "Kakashi-nii, is everything going well?"
"Jūgo, I am back. Of course everything went well." Kakashi said with a smile.
At this time, Jūgo is 1.90 meters tall, taller than Kakashi, so Kakashi has to look up to see Jūgo's face.
"That's great." Jūgo smiled, and then he said apologetically: "Kakashi-nii, there is something I need to apologize to you."
Kakashi was taken aback, and said, "What's wrong?"
"Back then, you said that you hope that after you come back, you can see that we all become Jōnin, but we have not done it, I'm sorry!"
Jūgo bowed deeply towards Kakashi, expressing his apology.
Hearing this, Karin, Sasuke and Sakura also remembered about that, and they were all a little ashamed.
Therefore, the three also bowed towards Kakashi at the same time and said: "I'm sorry! Kakashi-sensei (Kakashi-nii)."
Hearing this, Uchiha Houten who is on the side was dumbfounded. 'What the hell is that, three years from Genin to Jōnin?'
'That target is too crazy.'
When Kakashi saw this, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh and then said: "It's okay, back then, I told you that I will be back in three years. There is still one year left, so you don't need to be ashamed about it. For now, let's talk about mission first."
Shikaku smiled and said: "Well, I have already told you that Kakashi will not blame you."
The four of them were relieved when they heard this.
They care so much about this because they have a deep affection for Kakashi.
To not live up to Kakashi's expectations is the most uncomfortable thing for them.
Report chapter
"Shikaku-senpai, do you have any clues where those people are?" Kakashi asked.
Shikaku didn't talk, but instead took out a piece of cloth rags, and said, "We have fought against that group of people before. They are very strong. The four of us can only protect ourselves and can't make an effective counterattack, so I can only choose to retreat temporarily. I got this piece of cloth from their leader."
"Their leader? Is it a woman named Guren?"
"Yes, it's her. I recall that you have Ninja Dog, Kakashi. With this piece of cloth, you should be able to find their location." Shikaku said with a smile.
"Shikaku-senpai really understands me, this piece of cloth is really enough to find them."
Kakashi said, as he cut his right thumb with a kunai. Blood instantly ooze out, and then he formed hand seals.
"Kuchiyose no Jutsu!" (Summoning Technique)
Bang!
Two Ninja Dogs instantly appeared in front of Kakashi.
One of them is Pakkun, and the other one is a Hellhound.
Unlike the other Hellhounds, this hellhound is about the same size as Pakkun. It is black and white, with blue eyes. The most distinctive feature is that the brow is formed by two white hairs, which looks very cute.
Unlike other Hellhounds who have a strong body and attack power, Tetsuya is an auxiliary summoned beast.
"Yo, Kakashi, long time no see," Pakkun said.
"Kakashi-sama, what is your order." Tetsuya also said.
Kakashi smiled and said: "Pakkun, Tetsuya, this is the fragment of the enemy's clothes this time. I want you two to go and find the trace of this person. After you find it, report to me immediately."
After hearing this, Pakkun and Tetsuya move towards the cloth and sniffed it. Then Pakkun said: "Okay, Kakashi, no problem."
Tetsuya also nodded his head, and then the two Ninja Dogs set out.
"Well, Shikaku-senpai, now we just need to wait for news," Kakashi said.
"Okay, let's make a plan for the next step," Shikaku said.
"Well, this plan should naturally be handed over to Shikaku-senpai. After all, Shikaku-senpai is our Konoha's best strategist." Kakashi said with a smile.
"You brat, you're starting to shirk responsibility again. Okay, after all, this mission is my team's mission. It's already too much to ask for your help. I shall think of the plan myself." Shikaku smiled.
"As expected of Shikaku-senpai. You're really responsible" Kakashi said with a smile.
"You brat. Fine, let's talk about the plan." Shikaku's expression turned serious, and the seven Shinobi gathered together.
The plan has long been in Shikaku's mind. As Konoha's best strategist, Shikaku has already thought about all the steps.
"According to the intelligence, Orochimaru should not have arrived yet, so the first thing we have to do is to get the Kusanagi Sword. Although we don't know whether this Kusanagi Sword is true or not, we cannot allow it to fall into Orochimaru's hands."
Everyone nodded when they heard this.
"Now, the Otogakure's Shinobi should have obtained the specific whereabouts of the Kusanagi Sword, so they will definitely act immediately. When Kakashi's Ninja Dogs come back, we will follow after them. If the Otogakure's Shinobi has already got the Kusanagi Sword, we will immediately attack them and seize it. If they haven't got the Kusanagi Sword yet, we will have to wait. Compared to taking the lead, it is more efficient to let them take the lead."
"Shikaku-sensei, are you not afraid that after the Otogakure's Shinobi get the Kusanagi Sword, they will retreat immediately?" Karin asked.
Shikaku smiled and said: "Don't worry, Kakashi is here, so he won't let them run away. Isn't that right, Kakashi?"
Kakashi was a little helpless when he heard this, 'It seems that I will be the one responsible to take care of this matter.'
"Shikaku-senpai is right, I will definitely won't let them get away with the Kusanagi Sword."
"Well, from the information I got, except for the eight people killed by Kakashi's team, there are about seventeen Otogakure's Shinobi left, including Guren and the Sound Four which have Jōnin-level strength and above, so we need to be careful against them. At that time, I will hand over the Sound Four to Sakura, Karin, Jūgo and Houten. Sasuke will take care of Guren, and as for the others, me and Kakashi will take care of it.
Hearing this, Kakashi took a look at Shikaku strangely. After all, it stands for a reason that Guren who is the strongest should be left to Kakashi or Shikaku to deal with. But now, Shikaku asked Sasuke to deal with Guren, which make Kakashi confused.
As if seeing Kakashi's doubts, Shikaku smiled and said: "The Crystal Release used by Guren is very strong, and normal Ninjutsu can't deal with it. But, I found out that the Crystal Release has a weakness and this weakness makes Sasuke to be the most appropriate opponent for Guren."
Hearing this, Kakashi finally understood, 'Could it be that Shikaku-senpai's plan is...'
Unexpectedly, Sasuke said at this time: "Shikaku-sensei, I defeat the opponent with my own ability, so you don't need to tell me the opponent's weakness."
Shikaku was taken aback when he heard this, but he then smiled and said: "Okay, good luck."
Shikaku is a person who can understand someone's personality, so he naturally knows Sasuke's personality.
Sasuke is proud in nature, so naturally he won't let others tell him what his enemy's weakness is. He has enough confidence in himself.
Therefore, Sasuke will never accept Shikaku's information.
In his view, it is unfair and a question of his own strength.
"Sasuke-kun, this... is it okay?" Sakura said with some concern.
"Don't worry, Sakura, I won't lose," Sasuke said firmly.
"Well, it's decided then. You guys should be more careful, after all, the other party is not weakling. Jūgo, except for Guren, the Sound Four should have a Cursed Seal similar to yours. Be careful." Kakashi said.
Hearing this, Jūgo smiled and said: "Kakashi-nii, you can rest assured. It's just some fake, so I will never lose."
"That's good."
At this moment, Pakkun and Tetsuya finally get back.
"Kakashi, we have found the enemy, but they seem to be divided into two groups. Five of them left the camp, and the rest stayed in the camp. And these five people are not together, the four of them are in the front and one person is following from far behind. The aura of these five people is very strong," Pakkun said.
"Oh? Did Guren and the Sound Four leave the camp? Is there anything else?" Kakashi frowned.
"I'm not sure," Pakkun said.
Shikaku then said: "In that case, let's change our plan. I will go to the enemy camp with Houten and kill the rest of Otogakure's Shinobi. Kakashi, I want you to take Sasuke, Sakura, Karin and Jūgo and find out what Guren and the Sound Four are doing. If I didn't guess wrong, they should have gone to get the Kusanagi Sword."
Hearing this, Kakashi nodded and said: "Okay, then it is decided. Pakkun, take Shikaku-senpai and Houten to the enemy's camp. Tetsuya, I want you to take us to find those five people."
"Yes, Kakashi-sama!" Tetsuya responded.
"Then, Shikaku-san, come with me," Pakkun said.
"Sorry to trouble you, Pakkun," Shikaku said.
Pakkun then left with Shikaku and Houten, while Kakashi and the rest followed after Tetsuya!
Report chapter
The Flower Mountain that is located somewhere in the Land of Flowers, is the largest mountain range in the Land of Flowers.
Here is the precious wealth of the Land of Flowers, and many of the economic developments of the Land of Flowers originate from this mountain range.
The Flower Mountain at night is perilous.
The people of the Land of Flowers would not choose to enter the mountain at night, because there are a lot of beasts that move at night.
But today is different. Soon after the night has just fallen, four people ran into the Flower Mountain.
Their clothes are weird and they didn't look like normal people, but their movements are quick and no one noticed them.
And not far behind them, there was a girl in green clothes with dark blue hair following.
"Sakon, are you really sure that thing is in this mountain range?" Kidōmaru asked casually as a beast attacked him.
"Don't worry, there is no mistake. According to the clues I obtained, there should be a cave in front of us. Inside that cave, there is a passage leading to the Kusanagi Sword." Sakon replied.
"Okay, let's hurry up. If we leave the base camp for too long, it is estimated that Guren will be suspicious, and things will probably be troublesome. Jirōbō, especially you, move faster you fatty." Tayuya said.
When Jirōbō heard this, he became slightly angry, and yelled: "Tayuya! Don't call me fatty!"
"You two, now is not the time to quarrel. You can fight after we got the Kusanagi Sword." Kidōmaru scolded.
Tayuya and Jirōbō glared at each other, and then, both of them turned their heads away.
They still clearly distinguish their priorities right now.
"Okay, everyone speed up." Sakon said.
This group of four people then continued to move in this quiet mountain.
Kakashi and others also came to the entrance of the Flower Mountain under Tetsuya's lead.
"Kakashi-sama, they have entered this mountain range." Tetsuya said.
Hearing this, Kakashi looked at the deep mountain in the dark while squinting his eye, and then he said: "This mountain is really quiet."
"Kakashi-nii, this mountain is called the Flower Mountain. It is an important mountain range for the Land of Flowers. I've heard people from the Daimyo's Mansion said that there are a lot of beasts here at night, so no one will come to this mountain during the night. After all, the Land of Flowers didn't have Shinobi Village." Karin said.
"So it's like that. It seems that we have to be careful. The beasts at night are very fierce. Remember, we need to keep quiet. If you are attacked by beasts, don't use Ninjutsu, use kunai or other cold weapons to kill the beast. Do you understand?" Kakashi said.
"Understand!" everyone responded.
"Okay, let's continue."
In the woods, Kakashi and others stopped, and in front of them is a lone wolf who had just died not long ago.
"It seems that they indeed passed by here. This wolf should not have been dead for more than half an hour. Let's go," Kakashi said.
Walking along the way, the kunai of Kakashi's group was also stained with some blood.
At night in this Flower Mountain, there are indeed beasts, and there is more than one.
Even though they were already very careful, they still encountered a lot of beasts on the way.
"Kakashi-sama, the cave at the front is where their smell disappears." Tetsuya stopped and said.
The cave was pitch black, without any slightest of light, as if it were a huge mouth that was waiting to devour people.
"There is a slight chakra fluctuation in the cave. Someone must have entered it," Kakashi said.
"Kakashi-nii, I feel that there seems to be chakra fluctuation from some seals in this cave." Karin said.
"Oh? It seems that the Kusanagi Sword might really be inside."
Kakashi's strength at this time was a little weakened, so his perception for seal was not as sensitive as Karin's.
Karin is a member of the Uzumaki Clan, which is a good bloodline that has a high talent for Fuinjutsu. Coupled with Kakashi's deliberate training, her Fuinjutsu mastery is already not low at this time
Therefore, her perception of the seal will not be wrong.
"Stay alert everyone. Let's follow up and have a look inside," Kakashi said.
Everyone nodded silently, and they were all ready to fight at any time.
Inside the cave.
"Sakon, we have reached the end of this cave, but why is there nothing here?" Tayuya asked.
"Don't worry, this cave is just a road leading to the Kusanagi Sword. If the Kusanagi Sword was placed here, it would have been taken away long ago."
"So where's the Kusanagi Sword?"
Sakon did not answer, but went to the front of the stone wall and looked around.
"What is that Sakon doing?" Jirōbō complained.
"He should be looking for the entrance. Sakon is right. If the Kusanagi Sword was placed here so blantantly, it would have been taken away long ago, so it must be protected by something like a seal." Kidōmaru said.
At this moment, Sakon's movements stopped. He revealed a smile, and said: "Found it!"
Forming a hand seal with his hands, he then said: "Kai!"
Pressing his right hand on a square stone slab, a burst of white light then flashed.
Everyone covered their eyes from the light.
"It's too bright!" Kidōmaru shouted.
The white light quickly dissipated, and a square gap appeared in the stone wall, which is more than two meters high and one meter wide.
"It appeared. This is the entrance to the place where Kusanagi Sword is located, let's go in!" Sakon said.
The other three were also overjoyed when they saw this.
The entrance of the cave is not big, so they enter one by one. Inside it is a big open space.
"This place is really big. I wonder where the Kusanagi Sword is located." Tayuya shouted.
"It should be right in front. The intelligence said that the Kusanagi Sword is placed on a stone platform. It is so open here, so it should be easy to find it." Sakon said.
"Well, let's split up to find it." Kidōmaru said.
The group of four instantly split up and began to look for the location of the Kusanagi Sword.
Not long after, Jirōbō shouted: "Found it! Here!"
Hearing Jirōbō's shout, everyone rushed over.
They then saw that it was a stone platform that is more than five meters high, with a Katana inserted on it, and barrier seals around it.
At this time, a faint glow was being exuded from the Katana.
The four of them were overjoyed when they saw this, and Tayuya then yelled: "That should be the Kusanagi Sword! Great, we finally found it! With this, Orochimaru-sama will definitely value us more!"
"Yeah, let me take it down!" Kidōmaru exclaimed excitedly.
Just as Kidōmaru wanted to jump up, a cold voice rang.
"Shōton: Hashō Kōryū!" (Crystal Release: Tearing Crystal Falling Dragon)
Pink crystal dragon struck in an instant, and Kidōmaru was shocked and quickly drew away.
And on the pink crystal dragon's head, stood a woman with dark blue hair.
"Damn! It's Guren!"
Guren then jumped from the dragon's head and landed on the stone platform. She then said in a cold voice: "Good work you guys.. Now, this Kusanagi Sword is mine."
Report chapter
"Guren! Why are you here!" Tayuya yelled.
"Haha, do you really think that I don't know your little tricks? With those level of IQ, no wonder Orochimaru-sama looks down on you." Guren taunted.
"Damn it! Guren, don't go too far. This Kusanagi Sword was found by the four of us. You'd better hand it over to us honestly. Otherwise, even if you are more powerful, if the four of us join hands, you will be the one that is defeated."
"Just you four want to defeat me? The four of you can't even win against Kimimaro, and you all dare to challenge me. Without Kimimaro, Sound Five is just a trash!" Guren said coldly.
The Sound Four were dumbfounded when they heard this, and then Kidōmaru shouted: "What did you say!"
"What? Am I wrong?"
"Tayuya, Kidōmaru, Jirōbō, calm down. The Kusanagi Sword is still there. We just need to team up to defeat Guren, and then we can take the Kusanagi Sword." Sakon said.
"Okay!"
The other three nodded in agreement.
"Interesting, then show me you weakling's strength." Guren said with a sneer.
"Go, everyone!" Sakon yelled, and then the four of them dispersed and approached Guren from different directions.
"Sōma no Kō!" (Attack of the Twin Demons)
"Rakanken!" (Arhat Fist)
"Kumo Nenkin!" (Spider Sticky Gold)
Sakon, Jirōbō, Kidōmaru attacked one after another, but Tayuya didn't attack and just observing Guren's situation.
Seeing the attacks are coming towards her, Guren was not afraid at all. The corner of her mouth curled up, and she immediately formed hand seals!
"Shōton: Shuriken Ranbu!" (Crystal Release: Shuriken Wild Dance)
Countless shuriken formed by pink crystals flew towards the Sound Four directions with Guren as the center.
The Sound Four were shocked and quickly defended.
"Doton: Doryūheki!" (Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall)
Jirōbō shouted loudly, and then a huge stone wall rose up to block Guren's attack, but the stone wall was riddled with holes after being hit by the shuriken.
Seeing that amazing lethality, all four of them felt chills.
"Oh? I didn't expect you would have such a defensive power. It's worthy of praise, but if it's just like this, I'm afraid it's still not enough." Guren said coldly.
"Guren is too strong. It seems that we have to use the Cursed Seal." Sakon whispered.
The other three nodded when they heard this, and then they tried to unlock the seal.
At this moment, Guren suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute!"
The Sound Four were taken aback, and then Tayuya said: "Why? Scared? Then hurry up and go away!"
Guren coldly snorted and said: "Someone is coming but you guys didn't know about it, what a bunch of idiots. Come out, you people who is watching the show over there."
Hearing Guren's words and seeing that Guren is looking at the entrance, and the Sound Four were shocked, and quickly turned around.
Just now, the five of them are about to fight seriously, and if they are attacked by someone at that time, they will be in danger.
"Good perception, I didn't expect to be discovered so soon." Kakashi chuckled, then walked in from the entrance, behind him, four people followed.
Guren's pupils shrank, and she muttered: "Hatake Kakashi? Why you are here!"
"Make a guess." Kakashi said with a smile.
"Hmph, are you also aiming for this Kusanagi Sword?" Guren said coldly.
"Originally I didn't care about it, but now that I see it, I can't let you get what you want. It seems that Orochimaru has become a bit too greedy," Kakashi said.
"The thing that Orochimaru-sama is fond of is Orochimaru-sama's thing. If you want to cause trouble, I, Guren will never let you go!" Guren said as the chakra inside her body is about to explode.
"Interesting. I won't talk too much nonsense, let's do it."
After Kakashi finished speaking, Sasuke and others behind him were ready to fight.
Seeing this, Guren said: "You four, now is not the time to fight between us. We must first solve these people, otherwise, if the Kusanagi Sword falls into Konoha' hands, we won't be able to afford Orochimaru-sama's anger."
The Sound Four looked at each, and then Sakon said: "Guren is right, we should stop fighting against her for now. If we lost the Kusanagi Sword, Orochimaru-sama will not let us go."
"Hmph, let's just help Guren for now. After we solve this group of people, we can settle the accounts with Guren." Tayuya said.
After seeing the situation right now, the Sound Four naturally won't be unreasonable.
At this moment, these Otogakure's Shinobi have reached an agreement.
The five-against-five situation is formally formed.
"Five against five? Just choose your own opponent." Kakashi said to the four behind him.
The four people behind Kakashi then moved. Karin met Kidōmaru, Sakura met Jirōbō, Jūgo met Sakon, and Sasuke ran towards Guren.
"Ah, it seems that my opponent is you." Kakashi said as he looked at Tayuya who was not far away.
Tayuya was also surprised, as she never thought that her opponent would be Kakashi.
'This man is someone who was praised by Orochimaru-sama. I did not have any confidence to fight him.'
Guren looked at Sasuke who rushed towards him and was a little surprised. She originally thought that her opponent would be Kakashi.
"Uchiha Sasuke? Aren't you the container that was abandoned by Orochimaru-sama? Poor guy." Red Lotus whispered.
"Only slave dog of Orochimaru like you guys can feel that this is a shame. Orochimaru is a weakling that can only order his dogs to do things for him." Sasuke said coldly.
Guren's expression turned cold and then she shouted: "How dare you speak like that about Orochimaru-sama! Today, I will prove how wise Orochimaru-sama's decision was!"
"Shōton: Suishōtō!" (Crystal Release: Jade Crystal Blade)
Guren formed hand seals quickly, and then, a blade formed by pink crystals appeared on Guren's arm. She then rushed towards Sasuke.
Sasuke didn't panic and pulled out the sword at his waist.
Ding!
The two blade clash against each other, and the battle is about to break out.
On the other side, Kidōmaru looked at Karin in front of him and snorted coldly: "Hmph, it's just a woman!
"What's wrong with being a woman? Let's see what expression you will show after I finished taking care of you!" Karin shouted
"You sure are arrogant. Kumo Shibari!" (Spider Bind)
Kidōmaru directly attacked without talking nonsense.
The white liquid spouted from the Kidōmaru's mouth formed a spider web, and then flew towards Karin.
"What is that!"
Although Karin was a little shocked, a Chakra Scalpel appeared in her hands, and with a wave, the white spider web was instantly cut.
"Chakra Scalpel? Medical Shinobi? It's really troublesome."
Kidōmaru's spider silk cannot be cut with a sharp weapon, but it can be cut easily by Chakra.
Therefore, for his enemy to be someone who can freely use the Chakra to cut, he is very frustrated.
"You're really weak." Karin said mockingly.
"Woman, you will regret it!"
The battle between Jirōbō and Sakura was violent.
Jirōbō formed hand seals and shouted: "Doton: Doryūheki!" (Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall)
"Shannarō!"
Seeing the earth wall, Sakura rushed forward and throw a punch!
Boom!
The stone wall was shattered easily, and couldn't block Sakura's punch at all.
Jirōbō was shocked, and quickly dodged to avoid the punch. The corners of his mouth twitched and then he said: "What's wrong with this woman, how can she have such a terrible destructive power."
This is the first time Jirōbō saw a punch destroy his Earth Release easily.
"I miss? Then continue!"
Sakura said as she rushed towards Jirōbō again.
Compared to the loud voice here, the fight between Jūgo and Sakon are much quieter.
"You have a Cursed Seal on your body?" asked Jūgo.
Sakon was surprised a moment and then said: "It seems that you know a lot about us. Why? Are you scared? This is the strength given to us by Orochimaru-sama!"
"No, I am just curious about how powerful can counterfeit be."
"What are you talking about!"
"Let me check it out, your Cursed Seal." Jūgo said and then black runes starts appearing on his face.
Seeing this, Sakon was shocked: "Cursed Seal?"
Report chapter
Sakon looked surprised, as he didn't expect that someone he didn't know would have a Cursed Seal.
In Sakon's impression, only the Sound Five and Uchiha Sasuke have this honor. 'Who is this gu? Why does he have the Cursed Seal?'
"Looking at your expression, it seems that you are surprised," Jūgo said lightly.
"Bastard! Why do you have a Cursed Seal! It's impossible for Orochimaru-sama to give someone like you that honor! It's ridiculous!" Sakon roared.
"The Cursed Seal? It was originally mine. What you have is just a copy of mine."
"How is it possible!" Sakon said incredulously.
"No one can use the Cursed Seal more freely than I do. Now, let's stop wasting time." Jūgo said as the black runes on his body gradually disappeared, and then, he turned into a gray monster.
Sakon couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw this, and muttered: "The Level 2 Cursed Seal? How can he enter the Level 2 Cursed Seal so freely? What kind of monster is this guy?"
With the help of Kakashi on his Cursed Seal, Jūgo has already mastered this kind of ability perfectly. The bloodthirsty killing intent when using the Cursed Seal has also become extremely weak. The only thing that remains unchanged is probably when using the Cursed Seal, Jūgo would have a horrible appearance.
That horrible appearance might really scare a child to cry.
"Since you don't want to move, then I'm going to start first."
After Jūgo finished speaking, Chakra surged on his right arm, and then he rushed away, punching hard toward Sakon!
"Piston Fist!"
Sakon's pupils shrank and he said in surprise: "So fast!"
As soon as the voice fell, before he could escape, the punch hit Sakon's chest.
"Argh!"
With scream, Sakon coughed a mouthful of blood, and then Sakon's body was directly broken in half by Jūgo's punch and flew to the distance.
Jūgo frowned and felt something was wrong. Although his punch is strong, it was not strong enough to break a person in half.
'Then, the only explanation is that this person was intentionally doing this.'
"Damn, it hurts."
Sure enough, the broken half of Sakon moved again, and red blood cells emerged from the mutilated half of his body, and finally formed the half of his body which looks like armor.
The other half of his body also forms a similar body.
As a result, Sakon, who was broken in half, magically became two people at this time.
"Damn, such a powerful force, Sakon, you have caused me a big trouble."
"Nii-san, I am really sorry, I didn't think that this one would be so strong, so I quickly use the Level 2 Cursed Seal when the attack came."
Jūgo looked at the two people in front of him with a little surprise. He did not expect that there would be such thing from his opponent.
He originally thought that the extra head behind Sakon was just a display, but he didn't expect it to split up into another person.
'So, it seems that now I have two opponents.'
"Forget it, now is not the time to talk about this, let's kill this person as soon as possible." Ukon said, revealing his disgusting tongue, and at this moment, the appearance of his body began to change.
The black runes surged, and a sharp horn grew on his head, and his hair grew a lot.
The same change took place in Sakon on the other side, and his originally handsome face had now become extremely hideous and terrifying.
Maybe it is the generality of the Cursed Seal that has the side effect of reducing the user's appearance.
Fortunately, the Cursed Seal developed by Kakashi himself was only a medium for storing the Senjutsu Chakra, otherwise he might also have such a hideous and horrifying appearance.
"Oh? Is that your Level 2 Cursed Seal? Interesting, I hope you can entertain me." Jūgo said with a terrifying smile appeared on his hideous face.
Jūgo in the Cursed Seal state is completely different from his usual self.
He is usually gentle, but at this time, he is like a berserker!
The Chakra from the Cursed Seal increased again, and Jūgo at this time looked even more terrifying than before.
"Hey, Sakon, how do we fight against such a monster?" Ukon complained.
"Nii-san, as long as we join hands, we are invincible." Sakon muttered.
"It's easy for you to say, but this person is worth killing for."
Jūgo ignored the two people's conversation, and his right fist that turned into the hand of a monster blasted out again.
It's just that this time the power is even greater than before!
"Destroying Axe Fist!"
Jūgo's arms turned into axe and blasted towards Sakon and Ukon!
Cold sweat dripped on the faces of Sakon and Ukon, and then Sakon said: "This is not a joke, nii-san, use that trick."
"Nonsense, I don't need you to tell me that!"
Sakon and Ukon bite their right thumbs at the same time, and then quickly formed hand seals.
"Kuchiyose: Rashōmon!" (Summoning: Rashōmon)
The hideous ghost-faced gate rose from the ground and stood in front the two of them. At the same time, it also blocked Jūgo's heavy blow!
Boom!
The strong impact creates a terrifying air wave!
Boom!
The smoke dissipated, and the ferocious Rashōmon was pierced by Jūgo's attack!
"Hey, are you kidding me? This is Rashōmon that can protects Orochimaru-sama. How can it be pierced by someone's punch?" Ukon said in disbelief.
In the distance, Kakashi, who was playing around with Tayuya, saw this scene and couldn't help but muttered: "Oh? I don't expect that even the Rashōmon would come out. Jūgo's Cursed Seal is mastered very skillfully. He can even pierce through the Rashōmon with a punch although it is only the first gate. It seems that the victory and defeat would come out soon."
Sakon's strongest skill is Cursed Seal, and Jūgo is the source of Cursed Seal. Sakon is very unlucky to fight against Jūgo.
"Too weak! It's not enough!"
Jūgo roared, rushing to Sakon's side, and grabbed Sakon's arm!
"Steel wrist binding!"
After Jūgo grabbed Sakon's arm with one hand, he exerted a slight force.
'It's bad!'
Sakon secretly thought, but it is too late.
Jūgo is firmly grasping the Sakon's arm, making it immobile, and then he slammed Sakon towards the ground!
Boom!
Bang Bang Bang!
The dust on the ground is flying around, and Sakon vomited blood from the continuous attack.
Boom!
With another flick, Jūgo directly throw Sakon to Ukon!
Ukon quickly tried to catch Sakon, but he didn't expect that the huge force would caused him to step back a few meters, leaving two long scratches on the ground.
Cough!
Another mouthful of blood spurted out of Sakon's mouth, and his state seemed very sluggish.
"Nii-san, I can't do it anymore, let me enter your body to rest." Said Sakon.
"You're so useless. Just come in."
Ukon yelled, and then Sakon merged into his body.
"Damn, I'm really not accustomed to become the main body." Ukon muttered.
Sakon and Ukon were originally twins, with the special ability to merge their body. Usually Sakon is the main body, and Ukon is dormant behind, but now, it's the other way around.
"Oh? So it's still possible for you two to merge again.. Interesting, let me tear you all up again!" Jūgo growled.
Report chapter
Boom!
Two punches clashed with each other!
Boom!
A figure then was directly smashed into the stone wall!
"Too weak! Too weak! Can't you give me more fun?" Jūgo roared.
Ukon, who was smashed into the stone wall, spat out blood and said weakly: "Is this guy a monster? His strength is a bit too exaggerated! Is he really the origin of the Cursed Seal? His Cursed Seal's strength is even more exaggerated than the one on Kimimaro's body."
When Ukon said this, ge couldn't help but remember the fear of being dominated by Kimimaro before.
The same of being powerless against someone stronger.
"Damn! Absolutely not! I have dedicated the rest of my life to Orochimaru-sama, so how can I die here! Sakon, have you rested enough? I want to use that trick!" whispered Ukon.
"Nii-san, it's almost done. You can go ahead and let me control the body." The head on the back turned around and said softly.
"Okay, then let's first create a opportunity!" Ukon said.
"Okay, Nii-san."
Whoosh!
Sakon then put strength on his feet with the Cursed Seal runs at full force as he quickly rushed towards Jūgo.
"Oh, you dare to come again? Then take this punch!" Jūgo said as he threw another punch.
Ukon who was hiding suddenly come out when the punch got close. He then grabbed Jūgo's arm with both of his hands.
"Huh?" Seeing this, Jūgo formed a fist with his left hand, and threw another punch again. This time, Sakon did not escape, and was directly hit by Jūgo's punch and flew out again!
Boom!
Another loud noise sounded as Sakon was slammed into the stone wall.
But this time, Sakon showed a smile.
"Successful!" Sakon laughed.
Jūgo was taken aback and a little puzzled. When he was about to kill Sakon with his attack, Jūgo suddenly felt as if he couldn't move his body!
"What's going on?"
Jūgo is very surprised.
" Kisei Kikai no Jutsu!" (Parasite Demon Demolition Technique)
Ukon's voice came from Jūgo's body, making Jūgo a little shocked.
"What happened? Where are you!" Jūgo said in surprise.
"Haha, you don't need to look for me, because I am in your body."
"How is it possible!" Jūgo was surprised. He struggled, and finally breaking free.
"Oh? You actually able to break free from my binding, but it's useless. My secret technique can use Chakra to automatically decompose and rebuild the cells or proteins in the body. I broke up my body and entered your body. With this, I can slowly erode your cells and destroy your Chakra Pathway System. You are dead!" Ukon said arrogantly.
Sakon, who was being slammed into the stone wall, also smiled.
'No one has been able to escape from this trick. People who were caught will definitely defeated.'
In the distance, Kakashi was always paying attention to his team's battle situations. Upon seeing this, he frowned.
Seeing this, Tayuya quickly took out her flute and said: "You shouldn't be distracted! Otherwise, you won't know how you die!"
Kakashi smiled and said: "Oh? The little girl seems very confident. That's fine. Let me see your means."
When Tayuya heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little angry. The runes on her body quickly appeared, and she immediately use the Level 2 Cursed Seal!
"Oh, good strength, but it is very ugly. Sure enough, Orochimaru's taste is very bad." Kakashi complainly said.
"You are not allowed to insult Orochimaru-sama!" Tayuya shouted angrily. She then put her right thumb to her mouth and bit it. Blood then oozing out from her thumb!
"Kuchiyose no Jutsu!" (Summoning Technique)
With a bang, three huge Rage Ogres appeared in front of Kakashi.
"This is my summoned beast, Rage Ogres. Next, you will know what happened to those who annoyed me!"
"Mateki: Mugen Onsa!" (Demonic Flute: Phantom Sound Chains)
Tayuya said. She then put the flute on her lips and began to play the flute.
The flute sound is crisp and melodious, but there is a kind of murderous air at this moment.
"Interesting. Is it sound based Genjutsu? What a rare sight." Kakashi chuckled, and then he became more interested.
As for Jūgo, Kakashi is not worried.
If he is defeated like that, Jūgo would really disappoint Kakashi.
"Haha, how is it? Arrogant guy, it is uncomfortable, right?" Ukon said arrogantly.
A painful expression appeared on Jūgo's face, and then he half-kneeled on the ground.
The feeling of cells being corroded, accompanied by severe pain, is not something most people can tolerate.
"Damn it, you actually use such a despicable move." Jūgo muttered.
"Despicable? Hahaha, it's ridiculous, as long as you can win, how can you be called despicable? Stupid guy, just die obediently!" Ukon shouted.
"What a joke! I will never lose to you like this! Get out of my body!"
Jūgo yelled, and then, the chakra on his body increased sharply, and the silver Cursed Seal on his back fully opened!
"What's going on!" Ukon said in shock.
"Cursed Seal! Fully open!"
The gray pattern on Jūgo's body gradually converging, and the appearance of the monster gradually disappeared, making Jūgo's appearance return to normal, but the monster hand on both of his arms still exists.
There are black eyeshadows on his face, like Sage Mode.
"What is going on!" Ukon said in surprise.
"Do you think my Chakra would be so easy to be merged with you?" Jūgo said coldly.
"What?"
Ukon exclaimed, only to feel a violent mental power rushing into his mind.
Cold-blooded and indifferent!
Like Orochimaru!
Ukon felt that if he didn't leave Jūgo's body right now, he would become a lunatic directly!
Furious, Ukon instantly formed his body and withdrew from Jūgo's body.
"Hmph, you finally come out!"
Jūgo then directly grabbed Ukon's foot with one hand, then slammed it hard on the ground and threw him towards Sakon who is still on the stone wall.
"Argh!"
Ukon and Sakon screamed as their body collided. They were slammed into the stone wall, and that the original crater on the wall becomes bigger than before.
"It's not over yet! Taren Fujizuho!" (Multiple Lotus Nonself Connected Cannons)
Jūgo's right arm turned into a barnacle-like shape, and huge amount of Chakra was brewing in it.
The pupils of Sakon and Ukon couldn't help but shrank when they saw this. If they were hit by such a density of Chakra bullets, they would be dead!
But the two had no time to react. With a soft shout from Jūgo, a large number of Chakra bullets shot out towards them!
Bang bang bang!
Chakra bullets blasted towards Sakon and Ukon one after another!
Jūgo could only hear they scream again and again, and after a while, the scream of Sakon and Ukon gradually faded until it disappeared completely!
Upon seeing this, Jūgo stopped shooting and exited the Cursed Seal mode at the same time.
"Hah, it's dangerous. If it is not for Ryūchi Cave's Senjutsu Chakra, Ukon won't leave my body. I am afraid at that time, I would be defeated by him. I was really careless. I didn't expect they would have such secret technique.." Jūgo murmured.
Report chapter
Jirōbō looked at the cherry-haired girl in front of him. She has neat short hair, and looked very capable.
It's just that no matter how he looks at her, she's just a girl.
"Hey, woman, give up, you absolutely can't beat me," said Jirōbō.
Hearing this, Sakura become annoyed and said: "Fatty, you can't beat me!"
Jirōbō looked dumbfounded after hearing this and said: "How dare you to call me fatty! You are done! I have decided! I will destroy your corpse into ten thousand pieces!"
Sakura was slightly surprised, and then she saw Jirōbō finished forming hand seals: " Doton Kekkai: Dorō Dōmu!" (Earth Release Barrier: Earth Prison Dome of Magnificent Nothingness)
A semi-circular stone wall rose from around Sakura, and then covered her and her surrounding!
Sakura's vision went black as she was instantly surrounded by the stone wall!
"Haha, now that you are here, you can feel the feeling of Chakra being sucked out of your body!" Jirōbō said while laughing loudly.
It's just that at this moment, Sakura can't hear Jirobo's ridicule at all.
Because of the thick rock wall, Sakura has been completely sealed inside.
'What's wrong with this Earth Release? It seems that I continually losing my Chakra. No, I have to leave quickly.'
Thinking about this, Sakura then went up and kicked the stone wall.
The stone wall was smashed instantly, revealing a big hole, but it didn't show the outside.
Jirōbō was shocked and secretly thought: 'What an amazing destructive power. This woman's attack power is so high, no, I have to increase the output of the Chakra.'
After thinking about this, Jirōbō put his hands on the rock wall and increased the output of the Chakra.
Inside the stone wall, Sakura was surprised as she saw that the hole she created was recovering!
"It turns out that this stone wall can not only absorb my Chakra, but also restore the damaged place." Sakura muttered.
"But since it can be damaged, it can be said that it's endurance have a certain limit. As long as my attack power exceeds the limit it can bear, this stone wall should be destroyed directly. This will test my attack power. This is something I'm really looking for."
Sakura said with an excited smile on her face.
When it comes to the single attack power, there are only a few people who can match her Chakra Enhanced Strength.
Even Uchiha Madara once praised Tsunade's Chakra Enhanced Strength punch for its destructive power, and it is even above the Yondaime Raikage's strength when he used the Lightning Release Armor.
Although Sakura's Chakra Enhanced Strength punch is not as strong as Tsunade's, it's enough to deal with this low level Earth Release.
"If this is the case, then let's destroy this turtle shell!"
Sakura yelled, raising her right fist high!
"Shannarō!"
Sakura's punch then hit the stone wall directly!
Boom!
A loud noise sounded!
The stone wall was destroyed by Sakura's punch!
"What! How is it possible!" Jirōbō was shocked and looked at Sakura who was right in front of him in disbelief.
However, Sakura didn't shock him for too long as Sakura's right fist hit Jirōbō's body!
Boom!
Another loud noise sounded!
Jirōbō was directly smashed and flew out!
"Huh? It seems that this stone wall has absorbed a lot of my power." Sakura murmured.
In the distance, Jirōbō slowly got up, with a look of indignation on his face.
"Woman! You have successfully annoyed me!" Jirōbō said, and the runes on his body also appeared as he immediately uses the Level 2 Cursed Seal.
Although Jirōbō is arrogant, Jirōbō is very clear that he has no big chance of winning in the Level 1 Cursed Seal after getting hit by Sakura's punch, and he knew that only by using the Level 2 Cursed Seal that he has the strength to fight!
Jirōbō's hands then formed hand seals, and he yelled: "Doton: Doryō Dango!" (Earth Release: Earth Mausoleum Dumpling)
Jirōbō's hands then grab the ground, and in an instant, a huge boulder that was five or six long and more than two meters wide was lifted directly by Jirōbō. Jirōbō then directly throw the huge boulder towards Sakura.
Seeing this, Sakura is not anxious, 'No matter what kind of attack you use, I will destroy it with my punch!'
"Shannarō!"
Boom!
With a punch, the huge stone was directly torn apart.
Jirōbō was shocked and muttered: "What a really terrifying power. Is that the Chakra Enhanced Strength of the Godaime Hokage, Tsunade? Then is this woman Tsunade's disciple? Sakura-colored hair, so she's not Uzumaki Karin, then is she Haruno Sakura? She must have powerful raw strength. Then let's see who's stronger"
Jirōbō is proficient in Earth Release, but his raw strength is also very powerful.
Especially when using the Cursed Seal, his power was multiplied. Coupled with his already huge body, his raw strength is very high.
"Rakanken!" (Arhat Fist)
Jirōbō yelled softly, and his right palm blasted out, forming a Chakra air wave towards Sakura.
Sakura, who has just smashed the huge boulder, hurriedly dodged the attack when she saw it.
As a Medical Shinobi, her evading skill is extremely good.
Seeing this, Jirōbō rushed towards Sakura.
"Take this!"
Jirōbō yelled as his right shoulder moved to slam Sakura.
There are Chakra condensed on his right shoulder, and if it really hit Sakura, she would be injured.
But Sakura didn't try to dodge it in the slightest. She just punched him straight up.
"Shannarō!"
Boom!
The fist and the shoulder collided!
Crack!
With a crack sound, Jirōbō only felt that his right shoulder seemed to have been hit by a hammer, and he was a little numb for an instant!
"Damn it! Take this!"
Frustrated because of his right shoulder, Jirōbō didn't immediately pull the distance, and threw her left fist towards Sakura's chin.
Sakura couldn't dodge, and was hit into the air!
"Urgh!"
Sakura cried out in pain.
"Chance! Take this!"
Jirōbō bent his legs and immediately bounced into the air.
Immediately, her right knee bends, and it hits Sakura's abdomen!
"Argh!"
With a scream, Sakura exhaled in pain!
Jirōbō smiled triumphantly, however, it was not over yet.
Jirōbō's body continued to rise, surpassing Sakura, and then his left palm blasted out!
"Rakanken!" (Arhat Fist)
The huge Chakra air wave went from top to bottom, directly blasting on Sakura's body that was already in pain!
Boom!
Sakura was directly blasted into the ground!
Jirōbō slowly landed. Looking at Sakura who is on the ground, he smiled arrogantly: "I thought she was so powerful, but she turned out to be so weak, hahaha!"
"Is that so?"
A cold voice rang in Jirōbō's ears. Hearing this, he couldn't help but being surprised, and turned his head quickly, he was hit by a fatal blow!
"Shannarō!"
Sakura suddenly appeared behind Jirōbō, and then she kicked him with a terrifying strength. Jirobo was kicked directly into the ground, and cough a mouthful of blood.
"How could this be..."
Jirōbō looked unwillingly at the Sakura who was on the ground. But at this time, he saw that Sakura is no longer there and there's only a wooden log in her place.
"That... Kawarimi no Jutsu?" Jirōbō looked at the wooden stake with a face full of unwillingness, and never thought that he would be deceived like this.
"Stronger Ninjutsu doesn't necessarily better. Ninjutsu used at right time is the most important. This is what Kakashi-sensei teaches me, so you can go with peace of mind." Sakura muttered.
Although Jirōbō was full of unwillingness at this moment, he could only close his eyes.
That kick's strength is very powerful. At this time, he was already dying and then after a few moment, he finally died.
Sakura breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this, and looked at the other people's battle.

Chapter 391 – 391 Mind's Eye Of The Kagura!
The six-handed Kidōmaru is like a spider.
Karin looked at the guy in front of him and felt a little nauseous.
"Hey, what's the matter with you guys? A weird guy with six arms? It's really disgusting." Karin said.
Kidōmaru snorted coldly and said: "Hmph, how can you understand our situation."
"It's disgusting. It makes you didn't look like a human, and you also don't have the consciousness of being a human." Karin said in despise.
"Shut up! How can someone like you, who is living under the sun, understand how painful people like us struggling in the dark are! Ridiculous." Kidōmaru roared.
All of the Sound Five are orphans of the war.
They all picked up by Orochimaru, and because of their talent, they were trained by Orochimaru, and now they finally became useful subordinates of Orochimaru.
For them, Orochimaru is their belief, so as long as they can help Orochimaru, they don't care what happen to them.
They are not afraid to give their lives, let alone become a monster with six hands.
She didn't know why, but looking at Kidōmaru's eyes, Karin seemed to have a feeling of empathy for an instant.
Karin was also an orphan of the war. She originally had a mother, but her mother died in her Kusagakure because she was forced to heal the Shinobi there.
After fleeing Kusagakure and meeting Kakashi, she finally able to live a normal life.
However, Karin has never forgotten the tragic years in Kusagakure.
During the second round of Chunin Exam, she met someone from Kusagakure. At that time, Karin even beheaded him unceremoniously.
Because the one who killed her mother are the beast from Kusagakure.
Therefore, at this time, Karin actually felt pity and sympathy for Kidōmaru.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Are you pitying me? Don't joke around! I don't need anyone's pity! Go to hell!"
Karin's expression seemed to have touched Kidōmaru's most sensitive nerve, making Kidōmaru extremely angry.
He instantly entered the Level 2 Cursed Seal. He then bit his thumb, and formed hand seals!
"Kuchiyose no Jutsu!" (Summoning Technique)
With a bang, a huge spider hung upside down in the air and it looks extremely disgusting.
Kidōmaru hop into the top of the spider's body and sneered: "Taste the dispair!"
Kidōmaru said, and then he took out a kunai and cut the spider's belly. In an instant, countless small spiders come out of the spider's belly and fell down!
"Aahhh! So disgusting!"
Karin exclaimed. After all, the scene of dense spiders falling from the air is really disgusting for girls.
"Damn it, you're so despicable! Using such a nasty trick on girls!"
Karin then slammed the ground with a punch, causing the ground to be shattered.
Chakra Enhanced Strength!
After following Tsunade for two years, Karin also learned this skill.
Karin directly lifted the shattered stone, and threw it directly at the big spider in the air.
The speed of the stone is very fast!
Along the way, the little spider was completely blown away by the stone, and none of them could get close to Karin's body.
Boom!
The stone hit the big spider, penetrating its body instantly!
The blood was flowing as the big spider was in pain, and with a bang, the spider returned to the summoned world.
All of this happened in a blink of an eye. Before Kidōmaru could react, the big spider has already disappeared.
"Hey, aren't you too cruel?"
Kidōmaru didn't expect that the girl who looked soft and weak in front of him could actually have such a brutal attack.
"Damn you! How dare you use such a disgusting move! I will never let you go!"
Karin yelled, and then rushed towards Kidōmaru.
"Take this!" Karin threw a punch towards Kidōmaru.
Kidōmaru couldn't react for a while, and was being hit a few times by Karin.
Ding!
The two then pulled a distance from each other. Kidōmaru didn't seem to be injured, and Karin had a pained expression on her face.
"Damn! What is your skin made of? It's too hard!"
Karin shook her hands and asked puzzledly.
"Haha, my body surface can secretes Spider Sticky Gold at any time, making the surface of my body hard like metal. You can't hurt me at all." Kidōmaru mocked.
"Oh, then I should just use a Chakra Enhanced Strength punch to beat you!" Karin said.
"It seems that your melee ability is good, then see if your long-range attack ability is also so good!"
Kidōmaru said as his figure disappeared. And then, countless kunai formed by Spider Sticky Gold appeared from all directions.
"The number is too much!"
Karin said in astonishment, and then dodge the kunai barrage.
Fortunately, like Sakura, Karin has also undergone Tsunade's crazy dodging training. Otherwise, after being swarmed by this kunai barrage, she will die.
"What! She actually dodged it all! How could it be possible! What a terrifying dodging skill!" Kidōmaru muttered in surprise.
Karin gasped heavily at this moment. It is obvious that dodging the attack just now was not easy for her.
"This level of density attack is really too foul. If only Neji is here, he would be able to block all of these kunai in an instant." Karin murmured.
"Now, if the kunai number increased, you won't be able to avoid it, right?" After Kidōmaru finished speaking, a lot of kunai formed by Spider Sticky Gold flew towards Karin again.
"What? It come again!" Karin exclaimed. Facing the overwhelming number of kunai formed by Spider Sticky Gold, her scalp felt numb.
Chakra surged all over her body, and her speed increased again. Karin then dodged left and right, and she also took out two kunai, and kept blocking the attacking kunai.
No matter how fast Karin's speed is, she will inevitably be hit by the attacking kunai.
"Damn! You can only hiding in the dark! I won't let you go!" Karin yelled angrily.
After another wave of attacks ended, Karin looked a little haggard.
The clothes were torn in several places, and blood overflowed from the wound.
Although the wound was not deep, blood is flowing out of the wound.
"Oh? Still able to dodge? Then, let's see how you dodge it this time."
Kidōmaru said, and then he spit out Spider Sticky Gold from his mouth and created a bow.
"Kumo Senkyū: Suzaku!" (Spider War Bow: Terrible Split)
Kidōmaru held the bow with his hand, and he then spit out another the Spider Sticky Gold from his mouth to create an arrow. He put the arrow at the bowstring as he bit the bowstring and the arrow, aiming at Karin.
"Do you really think I can't find you? Mind's Eye of the Kagura! Activate!"
Karin said as she closed her eyes.
Mind's Eye of the Kagura! It is one of the abilities of the Uzumaki Clan that only some Uzumaki Clan's members with strong perception ability can use.
It can perceive the enemy Chakra in a very large area. Under this skill, unless it is a person with a very powerful hidden ability, they won't be able to hide from this skill!
"Found you!"
Karin suddenly opened her eyes and looked towards a certain direction.
Kidōmaru was startled, and secretly thought: 'Did she already find me? It's useless. My hit accuracy is 100%! My attack is also very destructive! Go to hell!'
Kidōmaru instantly let go of the bowstring and arrow. The arrow then flew out of the string!
Whoosh!
A burst of wind breaking sounded!
The speed of the arrow is very fast!
Karin looked at the flying arrow, but didn't panic. Just as the arrow was about to hit Karin, Karin moved slightly to the left, and then condenses Chakra on her right hand. She formed a chakra scalpel and slashed the arrow directly.
Ding!
With a crisp sound, the arrow directly broke in half!
"This… how is this possible!" Kidōmaru said in shock.
Karin didn't stop as she uses another technique.
"Kongō Fūsa!" (Adamantine Sealing Chains)
Countless golden chains come out of Karin's body and shot out towards Kidōmaru's location. The golden chains then entwine the distant Kidōmaru firmly.
Adamantine Sealing Chains! The unique Fuinjutsu of the Uzumaki Clan that can be released in an instant to bound people. It can even bind the Bijuu!
"What! What is this!"
Kidōmaru said in surprise.
"Let me send you to hell!"
Karin's figure suddenly appeared in front of Kidōmaru, and then she threw a punch.
Boom!
With a loud noise, the punch connects. Kidōmaru was restrained by the golden chain and couldn't move at all, so he was hit in the head by Karin's punch.
Being hit by Karin's punch, Kidōmaru was defeated.
Karin looked at Kidōmaru's body, and said coldly: "You have lost."

Chapter 392 – 392 Sasuke Vs Guren!
On the high platform, there is the Kusanagi Sword, while Sasuke and Guren face against each other.
"Uchiha Sasuke, I will prove that Orochimaru-sama's decision to abandon you is the right decision! Only I am qualified to be Orochimaru-sama's container!" Guren said with a sneer.
"What a pitiful fellow. Is the only purpose of your life is to Orochimaru's container? Don't you have a dream?" Sasuke mocked.
"What do you understand! It is my greatest honor to be able to dedicate my life to Orochimaru-sama! You are the one who fail to appreciate his kindness! Orochimaru-sama has taken a fancy to your body, but you actually refused! Do you know what a great honor you have refused? " Guren said angrily.
Since Guren was taken by Orochimaru, she has always worshipped Orochimaru.
When she knew that Orochimaru was looking for a body to become his soul container, Guren wanted Orochimaru to take her body as the container.
Originally, Orochimaru was satisfied with the Guren's ability. Unfortunately, since the discovery of the fatal weakness in Guren's Kekkei Genkai, he is not interested in Guren's body anymore.
What Orochimaru wants is a young body that has no weaknesses and is full of potential.
Guren, obviously does not meet this requirement.
However, Guren's strong personal strength still made Orochimaru appreciated her, which made Guren take charge of this mission.
From Guren's point of view, this is because of Orochimaru's supreme trust in her, so she must not let Orochimaru disappointed.
Therefore, this time, Guren has tried her best to complete this mission.
Seeing the Kusanagi Sword right in front of her, Guren would naturally not give up.
No matter who the opponent is!
"Pitiful guy, your dream sure is sad. But I won't let you take this Kusanagi Sword." Sasuke said coldly, and then he pulled out the sword on his waist.
"Arrogant! Let me take a good look of your strength to see how you can be regarded as Orochimaru-sama's container!"
Guren snorted softly, and immediately formed hand seals with both of her hands: "Crystal Release: Growing Crystal Thorns!"
As soon as the voice sounded, a crystal came out of the ground, piercing towards Sasuke in a straight line.
Seeing this, Sasuke stay calm. The sword in his hand was covered with Lightning from Chidori, and he directly destroys Guren's crystal with a slash of his sword!
But when Sasuke's sword touched the crystal, Sasuke's brow wrinkled slightly.
'This crystal is harder than I thought.' Sasuke has secretly thought, but his hands continued to move.
"Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu!" (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)
As the first Ninjutsu he learned, Sasuke has already mastered this Ninjutsu to the point of perfection. As he put his left hand on his lips, he spewed a giant big fireball!
"Shōton: Suishō Kyō!" (Crystal Release: Jade Crystal Mirror)
The crystal mirror was formed in front of Guren, and it completely block Sasuke's fireball, without causing any damage.
"What a strong defensive power!" Sasuke muttered.
Guren formed another hand seals and said: "Suishō Bunshin no Jutsu!" (Jade Crystal Clone Technique)
Immediately, an identical Guren emerged from the crystal mirror.
"Huh? Clone?" Sasuke muttered as he saw the crystal clone that came out with his Sharingan.
At this time, the two Guren formed hand seals at the same time and said: "Shōton: Omiwatari no Jutsu!" (Crystal Release: The Gods' Crossings Technique)
Both of the Guren put their hands into the ground, and then crystal come out and move towards Sasuke.
Sasuke was startled and jumped out of the range quickly, but Guren continued with her next move!
"Shōton: Kesshō Gokakurō!" (Crystal Release: Crystal Pentagonal Prison)
The pink crystal rose directly into the sky, encasing Sasuke's feet!
"It's bad!" Sasuke secretly thought, but he is a step too late.
Guren's eyes narrowed, and the pink crystal rose again, directly encasing Sasuke's body in it.
"Oh, so you are only this much, and I thought that you were really amazing. Now, just shatter into pieces with my crystal." Guren said coldly.
From the distance, Kakashi looked at this scene and was slightly surprised.
'Guren's Crystal Release is indeed very powerful and varied. It is similar to Haku's Ice Release, but it is better than the Ice Release in terms of firmness. But if it's just that much, it is not enough to deal with Sasuke.'
Kakashi secretly thought, and then he retracted his gaze, and continued to play with the three Rage Ogres in front of him.
After Guren thought that the fight has ended, she wanted to reach out to take the Kusanagi Sword, but suddenly, there was a cracking sound coming from Sasuke who was encased in crystal.
"Chidori Nagashi!" (Chidori Current)
Sasuke shouted in a low voice, and then, a terrifying Lightning current was released from all over his body!
The Lightning current crushed Guren's crystal directly, releasing Sasuke!
The sword in his hand slashed straight towards Guren!
Guren was shocked, and a crystal blade instantly condensed on her right hand.
"Shōton: Suishōtō!" (Crystal Release: Jade Crystal Blade)
Ding!
Sasuke's sword and Guren's crystal blade collided together fiercely!
"How are you still okay?" Guren asked in surprise.
"Guren, did you really think that is enough to kill me? You are really looking down on these eyes!"
The scarlet Sharingan looked at Guren straightly, shocking her.
"Sharingan!" Guren said angrily.
"Genjutsu: Sharingan!"
Guren only felt a dampened sound, as if her body was out of her control.
'It's bad! He's using Genjutsu!' Guren secretly thought and then she disrupts her chakra flow.
When Guren broke free from the Genjutsu, a sword was already slashing towards her.
Guren quickly jumped back and dodged the sword.
"Oh? You actually broke free from my Genjutsu so quickly." Sasuke was slightly surprised.
"Hmph!" Guren snorted coldly, and the blood in her body was surging.
After forcibly cracking Sasuke's Genjutsu, the Chakra on her body can't be used easily for a while.
"It seems that I need to be a little more serious," Sasuke muttered.
"Then try it, let's see who will be the first one to fall down!" Guren said unconvinced.
"That's what I meant."
Sasuke said softly, and then the Lightning Attribute Chakra in his body surged!
"Lightning Release Armor!"
Sasuke's body was tightly covered with Lightning Release Armor, making him looked quite frightening.
Seeing this, Guren was slightly surprised, but she still coldly snorted and said: "Hmph! Nice bluff! Shōton: Hashō Kōryū!" (Crystal Release: Tearing Crystal Falling Dragon)
After Guren finished forming hand seals, a crystal dragon emerged from the ground and rushed towards Sasuke.
Sasuke was not anxious, and look at the rushing crystal dragon with his scarlet eyes coldly.
"Chidori!"
Sasuke held his sword with both of his hands, and then, the sword is wrapped with blue Lightning. At the same time, the sound of thousand birds chirping keeps ringing!
Sasuke jumped and then swung the sword down!
Clang!
The sword slashed on the crystal dragon's head, and for a while, they are in stalemate.
Sasuke frowned, and increase the output of the Chakra in his hand!
Slash!
The crystal dragon then shattered with one blow!
Clang!
At the same time, Sasuke's sword is broken!

Chapter 393 – 393 Chidori Onsei!
"It's so hard. Even my sword was broken!" Sasuke's hand felt numb after clashing his sword with the crystal dragon.
Fortunately, the crystal dragon has also broken, otherwise, Sasuke would be injured by this attack.
"Haha, seeing that your sword has been broken, what else can you do?" Guren smiled, and immediately formed hand seals!
"Crystal Release: Growing Crystal Thorns!"
A pink crystal suddenly popped out of the ground, stabbing towards Sasuke!
"If you think that attack would take me down, then you have underestimated me!"
The tomoe on Sasuke's eyes keeps spinning, and then after Sasuke formed hand seals, blue Lightning condenses on his left hand.
Chirp Chirp Chirp!
The sounds of thousands of birds chirping rang!
"Chidori!"
Sasuke muttered, and the terrifying chirping sounded through the entire place!
Stab!
With a stab, the pink crystal that came out of the ground was instantly crushed by Sasuke's Chidori.
However, Sasuke's face did not show joy, but instead he looked at the crystal that was quietly shattered not far away.
'What is going on here? My Chidori's attack range is not that far.'
Suspicion instantly filled Sasuke's heart.
Guren narrowed her eyes, and muttered: "Chidori? Hatake Kakashi's original Ninjutsu?"
Sasuke continued to attack, and the Chidori on his left smashed towards Guren!
'Hmph, troublesome guy.' Guren secretly thought, but her hands didn't stop forming hand seals.
"Shōton: Kurenai no Kajitsu!" (Crystal Release: Crimson Fruit)
The shattered pink crystal instantly condensed and formed a fruit-like shape, enclosing Guren's whole body.
Chidori also hit the pink crystal fiercely at this moment!
Boom!
Countless sparks splashed!
But the pink crystal is unscathed!
Seeing this, Sasuke frowned. Although his Chidori had just broken the Crystal Release attack and its power has been reduced, for it to unable to break through the crystal's surface, Sasuke knew that this crystal has high defense power.
Chirp!
The sounds of thousands of birds chirping continue ringing!
After a few seconds, the Chidori quietly dissipate!
At this moment, a corner of the crystal's surface was strangely shattered!
Sasuke and Guren were taken aback at the same time, as they didn't know why that happened.
'What is going on here? Is it the weakness of her Kekkei Genkai? Or is it an accident?' Sasuke was a little puzzled. He seemed to have thought of something, but he just couldn't draw a conclusion.
At this moment, there was a sound of breaking wind coming from behind Sasuke!
Sasuke was taken aback and quickly move away, but he was a step too late, and a cut was made in the back by the crystal blade. Fortunately, the wound was not deep, and it was just a small injury.
"Damn, I forgot about her previous physical clone. I need to take care of it!" Sasuke murmured.
Seeing that Sasuke has escaped a blow from her clone, Guren felt a little bit regretful. She didn't expect that in this situation, Sasuke would be able to react, and avoided her clone attack. Guren understood that Sasuke's reflex and speed is really high.
"Uchiha Sasuke, you are not my opponent. You should surrender obediently." Guren said coldly.
"Hmph, you sure are ignorant. I have already seen through your moves!" Sasuke stared at Guren with his scarlet Sharingan, making Guren felt uncomfortable.
'Does he really see through my Ninjutsu? How could it be possible! It must be a lie!' Guren secretly thought in her heart.
"You shouldn't doubt it. I have already found a way to defeat you. From now on, your Crystal Release will be useless against me!"
Sasuke's confident words cast a shadow on Guren's heart.
What had just happened appeared silently in Sasuke's mind.
'When the sounds of thousands of birds chirping rang, Guren's crystal shattered so suddenly. It was definitely not a coincidence!'
'But what's the secret in it?'
'Crystal Release? Crystal?'
'What can be used to shatter the crystal structure?'
'Ultrasonic wave!'
Sasuke's eyes lit up when he thought of this.
'It turns out that the weakness of Crystal Release is ultrasonic wave.'
Sasuke secretly thought, and then he started to form a combat plan.
Seeing Sasuke's confident appearance, Guren starts to panic.
She feels that she has fallen into some kind of predicament.
'Damn, I mustn't be confused by him. It must be Sharingan's Genjutsu! Calm down!' Guren secretly thought in her heart, forcing herself to calm down.
Seeing that Sasuke remained motionless, Guren didn't mean to continue to stand in a stalemate, and she formed hand seals again!
"Kesshō: Rokkaku Shuriken: Ranbu!" (Crystal: Hexagonal Shuriken: Wild Dance)
Numerous crystal hexagonal shuriken appeared near Guren's body. At this moment, Guren waved her hand gently, and then all of the crystal hexagonal shuriken flew towards Sasuke!
The crystal clone on the side also rushed in.
Seeing this, Sasuke didn't panic, and uses Chidori again!
Chirp!
The sound of thousands of birds chirping rang once again!
Sasuke face did not show joy, and his expression was solemn.
'This is not enough! I need more precise control! I need more accurate judgment!'
Sasuke's secretly thought. His scarlet Sharingan ignored the flying crystal hexagonal shuriken, but looked at the Chidori in his hands.
Chidori's sound is getting louder and louder!
The entire space is filled with such terrifying sounds!
However, in the next moment, this sound suddenly becomes very small!
The sound of Chidori changed in an instant!
'No, it's almost right. It's not the volume of the sound! It must be frequency, the frequency is wrong!'
Sasuke exclaimed in his heart, and then the three tomoe in his eyes spin very fast!
Just as the crystal hexagonal shuriken was about to touch the Sasuke body, a smile suddenly appeared on Sasuke's face!
The sound of the Chidori disappeared at this moment!
And at the same time, the flying hexagonal crystal shuriken and the crystal clone shattered!
Guren was very shocked when she saw this!
"What's going on!"
Sasuke's mouth curled up slightly, and then he said, "I already said that I have found your weakness!"
"How is it possible! I don't believe it!"
Guren exclaimed in horror, and then her hands are forming hand seals again!
"Shōton: Hashō Kōryū!" (Crystal Release: Tearing Crystal Falling Dragon)
The crystal dragon appears once again, and rushed towards Sasuke!
Sasuke didn't move at all, and the blue Lightning in his left hand surged again!
"Chidori Onsei!"
The Chidori without the slightest sound appeared again, and the crystal dragon shattered directly when it was one meter away from Sasuke!
When Kakashi who was in the distance saw this, he smiled: "The soundless Chidori, but it's not Raikiri. Chidori Onsei? It's really an interesting Ninjutsu. Sasuke is really a genius for developing Chidori like that."
" This, this… how is this possible!"
Guren's face showed disbelief at this moment, and her original confidence has already disappeared.
She can accept that her Crystal Release is broken by Sasuke's physical attack, but she can't accept that her Crystal Release was completely destroyed by an unknown attack before reaching Sasuke!
"Nothing is impossible. Although your Ninjutsu is strong, the weakness is also too obvious. This time, I won!"
Sasuke said, and then, the Chidori in his hand extended instantly!
"Chidori Eisō!" (Chidori Sharp Spear)
Stab!
The Chidori Sharp Spear pierced directly into Guren's chest, and blood was spilled!

Chapter 394 – 394 Weird Orochimaru
The powerful Lightning Attribute Chakra invaded Guren's body, and blood spewed out directly from Guren's mouth!
"Damn it. So this is the end!"
Guren muttered. The feeling of numbness gradually made her feels a sense of confusion.
Guren struggled to go out of the range of the Chidori Eisō, and under her feet was the end of the stone platform!
Guren pulled her body away from the tip of the Chidori Eisō, and then fell down from the stone platform!
'Orochimaru-sama, I am sorry, I have disappointed you!'
This was Guren's last thought as her vision turned black, and then, she fainted.
At this moment, a figure suddenly came from the entrance of the cave, reaching out to catch Guren who was about to land!
The newcomer has white hair, wearing round black frame glasses, and there's always smile on the corner of his mouth!
It is Yakushi Kabuto!
"Sure enough, she is really a troublesome woman but I got no choice but to save her."
Kabuto and Guren are not harmonious. For Kabuto to save her, there must be only one reason!
"Is Orochimaru coming?"
Kakashi murmured, and then he sensed the aura of a snake!
The three Rage Ogres in front of him were still attacking ferociously, but Kakashi was no longer interested in them.
As soon as Shunpo was used, the three Rage Ogres were instantly sent back to their world by Kakashi.
"This…"
Tayuya was still in shock seeing this when Kakashi has already appeared behind her and then, he said softly: "Sorry, but the time for playing around has ended."
Tayuya didn't have any time to react. There was a gust of palm wind coming from behind her, and then she felt a pain in the back of her neck and fainted.
"Haha, Kakashi, it's not a glorious thing to win against a youngster like that."
The hoarse voice sounded in the cave.
Kakashi knew that in the whole Shinobi World, there is only one person who has this kind of voice!
Orochimaru!
Kakashi looked at the entrance and saw a figure walking in.
He's wearing yellow kimono, with purple eyeliner, and golden yellow snake eyes!
The corner of his mouth still had that kind of playful smile, looking at the only person in that place who deserved his attention, Kakashi.
Kakashi chuckled and said: "It may be dishonorable, but you should be thankful that I still spare her life."
"Oh? If you like it, I won't mind even if you kill her." Orochimaru said with a smile.
"I don't have such interest. I will just give her back to you!"
Kakashi said as he tossed Tayuya to Orochimaru.
Orochimaru stay calm as he reached out his hand to catch Tayuya.
At this moment, Kabuto who is bringing Guren on his back arrive at Orochimaru's side and said: "Orochimaru-sama, Guren's condition is somewhat bad, so she need to be treated immediately."
"Is that so?" Orochimaru said as he gave Tayuya to Kabuto. He then looked at Sasuke who was on the stone platform and said with a smile: "So it's really Sasuke. In just two years, he was able to grow to this level. Kakashi, I really regret making that deal with you."
Kakashi smiled and said: "There's no use regretting. Sasuke won't follow you anymore."
"That's true, but there will always be other ways. Isn't that right, Kakashi?" Orochimaru said with a smile.
Kakashi couldn't help but frowned when he heard this. He also felt that Orochimaru actually gave him a dangerous feeling at this moment. 'What happened to him?'
At this time, Sakura, Karin and Jūgo has already ran to Kakashi's side, and Sasuke also pulled out the Kusanagi Sword that was on the stone platform and jumped to Kakashi's side.
"Kakashi-sensei." Sakura called out with some concern.
Kakashi raised his hand slightly to signal Sakura to stay calm.
When Sakura saw it, she didn't talk anymore.
"Orochimaru, the purpose of your coming here is for this Kusanagi Sword right? Unfortunately, I will not give it to you," Kakashi said.
Hearing this, Orochimaru's eyes fell on the Kusanagi Sword in Sasuke's hands.
Sasuke's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked back at Orochimaru.
This man who once frightened him seems to have become even stronger than before!
Even though he has become much stronger, he can still feel that there is still a gap between him and Orochimaru.
"Haha, I did come for it before, but at this point, it seems that this trip was a bit wasted." Orochimaru said with a smile.
"Oh? Why?" Kakashi wondered.
"Haha, that Kusanagi Sword seems to be just a fake. Sure enough, there is only one real Kusanagi Sword, which is the one in my hand."
Orochimaru said with a smile.
Kakashi glanced at the Kusanagi Sword in Sasuke's hands and took a closer look.
In terms of materials and workmanship, the quality of this Kusanagi Sword is definitely not bad, but compared with the Kusanagi Sword in Orochimaru's hand, it is indeed worse. But it is still a very good sword.
"As that is the case, that Kusanagi Sword has no meaning to me. Sasuke, it seems that your sword is broken. Then, this sword will be a gift from me to you." Orochimaru said with a smile.
"Hmph! You sure are generous." Sasuke said coldly.
The sword was clearly in his hand at this moment, but Orochimaru said that it is a gift from him. It makes Sasuke feels a little angry.
"Of course, after all, the intelligence and search work of this Kusanagi Sword was done by my subordinate. So naturally, that Kusanagi Sword is mine." Orochimaru said.
When Kakashi heard Orochimaru's words, he felt that there was some truth in it.
"Then, goodbye for now, Kakashi. I am looking forward to our next meeting."
After Orochimaru finished speaking, he turned and left without any hesitation. Kabuto who was holding both Guren and Tayuya, followed behind Orochimaru and also left.
"Kakashi-sensei, should we chase after them?" Sasuke asked.
Kakashi shook his head and said: "No, Orochimaru's strength can't be underestimated, and Kabuto's strength is also not weak. If we attack them rashly, I am afraid there will be casualties. Our mission has been completed, so there is no need to clash with Orochimaru."
After hearing Kakashi's words, everyone can only give up.
They knew that if they are facing against Orochimaru, they are indeed in danger.
If Kakashi is alone, he didn't mind having a fight with Orochimaru. After all, Orochimaru feels very strange to Kakashi at this time, and Kakashi wants to figure out what's that weird feeling too.
But with Sasuke and others present, Kakashi couldn't do it. After all, Kakashi still can't use his full strength.
After weighing the pros and cons, Kakashi chose to not act rashly.
Kakashi suddenly thought of something, and exclaimed: "That's right! Shikaku-senpai!"
'Since Orochimaru has come here, didn't that mean Orochimaru has also come to the Otogakure's camp? Doesn't that mean Shikaku-senpai is in danger?'
Thinking of this, Kakashi couldn't help but feels anxious. He then left quickly with his group, heading towards Otogakure's camp!

Chapter 395 – 395 Kakashi's Mistake
The four followed after Kakashi, and then Sakura asked with some doubts: "Kakashi-sensei, what's the matter?"
"Since Orochimaru was here, it means that he has arrived early. If he arrives, where will he go to?" Kakashi said.
The four of them were startled when they heard this, and Sakura said: "The Otogakure's camp!"
"Yes, Shikaku-senpai and Houten are the Otogakure's camp after separating from us. If Orochimaru were there, I am afraid…" Kakashi said, feeling anxious.
He didn't expect that the information provided by the Otogakure's Shinobi who they caught back then was wrong.
It should be that Orochimaru is moving faster than expected, or there's something else happened, so that he arrived here so quickly.
Sasuke suddenly said at this moment: "Kakashi-sensei, Shikaku-senpai should be fine."
"Huh? Sasuke, how do you know?" Kakashi asked curiously.
"We just had a fight with Guren and the Sound Four. It took about ten minutes for Orochimaru to come there. If Orochimaru rushed over from the camp after Shikaku- sensei arrives, he wouldn't be able to come so fast as the camp and our location is far away. That means he is already not in the camp when Shikaku-sensei arrived. If Orochimaru met Shikaku-sensei, he won't be able to come to our location that fast as with Shikaku-sensei's strength, it is impossible for Orochimaru to finish the fight quickly."
Hearing Sasuke's deduction, Kakashi was stunned, and he thought that it really did make sense.
However, Kakashi's speed did not slow down.
"Sasuke, you may be right, but at this moment, Orochimaru is also very likely to go back to the the Otogakure's camp, so we still have to go there quickly, just in case, as we didn't know if Shikaku-senpai has finished attacking the camp."
Sasuke nodded and said: "Yes!"
Kakashi can't use Sage Mode at this time, so he didn't know how Shikaku is.
'Pakkun hasn't returned yet. So he should be still with Shikaku-senpai. That means there should be no major problem.' Kakashi secretly thought.
The five Konoha's Shinobi's speed is extremely fast as they run towards the Otogakure's camp.
However, Kakashi still feels that they are a bit slow, so he plans use his full speed and go first.
Sasuke and Sakura have Kakashi's Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder God Technique) kunai. If something goes wrong, he can rush over as soon as possible, so there should be no problem.
Just as Kakashi was about to accelerate, Karin suddenly said: "Kakashi-nii, I can feel Shikaku-sensei and Houten's Chakra. They are running towards us."
As soon as he heard this, Kakashi immediately cancel his plan.
He almost forgot that Karin's perception ability is not weaker than when he is using Sage Mode.
"How far are they?" Kakashi asked.
"If we move forward with this speed, we will meet them in three minutes."
"Really? That's good." Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief as it seemed that there shouldn't be any problem.
Three minutes later, Kakashi's group met Shikaku's group.
"Shikaku-senpai, what is the situation?" Kakashi asked.
"Successfully solved, there were only a few people left at Otogakure's camp. Houten and I were able to resolve the battle very quickly. Originally, we planned to clean the battlefield, but Pakkun suddenly said that your smell was approaching quickly, and I thought it might be an accident. So I rushed over quickly. Did you solve the problem on your side?" Shikaku said.
"Well, the matter was resolved smoothly. We got the Kusanagi Sword and we also met the Orochimaru."
Shikaku was surprised and said: "So Orochimaru is really here? No wonder there are not many people on Otogakure's camp left. I guess that the rest of the people are called back by Orochimaru. Did you fight Orochimaru?"
Kakashi shook his head and said, "We have constraints on each other and didn't do anything, but I feel that Orochimaru seems a little weird."
"Weird? Why did you say so?"
"It's like he turned into someone else. It's possible that Orochimaru has used Fushi Tensei (Living Corpse Reincarnation) again." Kakashi thought for a moment and gave his answer.
"Is that so? According to the intelligence, Orochimaru's last body fits perfectly last time, and he was able to display almost all of his strength. For him to use Fushi Tensei with such a good body, could it be that he has found a better body?" Shikaku guessed.
Hearing Shikaku's guess, Kakashi suddenly realized something.
'Is it… Kimimaro!'
Originally Orochimaru is extremely satisfied with Kimimaro's body. As Kimimaro has Bloodline Disease, he tried to get Sasuke's body.
But now that Kimimaro's Bloodline Disease has been healed with Kakashi's help, it is not impossible for Orochimaru to take Kimimaro's body.
Sound Four and Guren appeared, but Kimimaro who was the strongest didn't appear…
Kakashi felt a little scared, as Orochimaru seemed to have found a new path.
'Could it be that Orochimaru will do something to the Hyuga Clan?' Kakashi's secretly thought as he really felt that it is a possibility.
"It seems that I have created a big problem for myself."
Kakashi's mind flooded with many thoughts, but they were all vague.
But what is certain is that Orochimaru at this time may be difficult to deal with.
Seeing Kakashi's expression changed a little, Shikaku asked: "Kakashi, what's the matter?"
"Nothing, I just think that Orochimaru's strength has become stronger and may affect Konoha," Kakashi explained casually.
"Maybe, but now is not the time to think about that, Orochimaru's trace is not easy to find, so we should report the mission's situation to Godaime-sama." Shikaku said.
"Yeah, we should just let Tsunade-sama to worry about it." Kakashi said with a smile.
Hearing this, Sakura mourned for Tsunade.
She felt that these two people are really good at throwing responsibility.
After discussing for a while, the seven Konoha's Shinobi returned to the Daimyo Mansion in the Land of Flowers.
Shikaku reported to the Daimyo about the mission, and asked the Daimyo to send someone to Otogakure's camp to clean the battlefield.
At this time, Orochimaru should have already left, so there is no danger for these people to go.
After the Daimyo knew that the group of unknown Shinobi has been dealt with, he was very happy. He originally wants to have a big celebration, but considering Kakashi and his group were busy all night and must be tired, he decided to postponed it until tomorrow.
As for the issue of the Kusanagi Sword, the Daimyo did not mention anything.
For the Land of Flowers, the Kusanagi Sword is useless. With the Land of Flowers' strength, no matter whether this Kusanagi Sword is real or fake, they can't keep it.
The Daimyo has a very clear understanding about the so-called politic.
Therefore, instead of asking for the sword back and offend Konoha, it is better to give it to Konoha for favor.
Perhaps with this, they can establish a more friendly diplomacy with Konoha, and this benefit is far more valuable to the Land of Flowers than the Kusanagi Sword itself.
Both sides have such a tacit understanding, so the Kusanagi Sword naturally fell into Konoha's hands.

Chapter 396 – 396 Letter
The Land of Flower's Daimyo Mansion, inside the guest room.
"Sasuke, is the Kusanagi Sword in your hand?" Kakashi asked.
Sasuke nodded and took out the Kusanagi Sword.
Kakashi took it, looked at it carefully, and then said: "It seems that Orochimaru is not wrong. This Kusanagi Sword is indeed a fake and it is a bit worse than his Kusanagi Sword."
"How can you are so sure, Kakashi-sensei?" Sasuke asked curiously.
"It's very simple. I have fought against Orochimaru before, and his Kusanagi Sword is much sharper than my previous Millennium Sword. This Kusanagi Sword is indeed better than my previous Millennium Sword, but it is just a little better," Kakashi explained.
"It turns out to be like that." Sasuke nodded.
"But even so, there is not many sword in this world that can be compared to this Kusanagi Sword."
Kakashi said as he handed the Kusanagi Sword back to Sasuke.
Sasuke was taken aback, and said, " Kakashi-sensei, this…"
"This sword is yours now." Kakashi said with a smile.
"Kakashi-sensei, this…is this appropriate?" Sasuke was a suprised.
As someone who has trained in swordsmanship, Sasuke is indeed a little fond of this sword.
Sasuke also has the desire to use this Kusanagi Sword, but Sasuke knows that such weapons cannot be owned casually.
This Kusanagi Sword is the reward from this mission and is to be handed over to Konoha. If Kakashi gave it to himself, he is afraid that there will be some trouble.
"Do not worry, it's just a fake Kusanagi Sword. Tsunade-sama won't be that petty." Kakashi said with a smile.
Kakashi is also telling the truth. Even if Tsunade knows that the Kusanagi Sword has been given to Sasuke, she will not pursue anything.
On one hand, this Kusanagi Sword is what Kakashi and the others found, and it was considered the reward of the mission.
Even if it is handed over to the village, the village will give a certain amount of compensation to them.
On the other hand, Tsunade will still give Kakashi some favor, after all a fake Kusanagi Sword is obviously not as valuable as Kakashi.
Tsunade wouldn't care about these things as long as it is for Kakashi .
"Thank you very much, Kakashi-sensei." Sasuke accepted the Kusanagi Sword when he heard Kakashi's words, and he was a little moved in his heart.
"Use it well. By the way, you should change the name of this sword, otherwise it always feels weird to call it Kusanagi Sword," Kakashi said.
"Kakashi-sensei, can you please give it the name?"
"Well, let's call it Sky Cloud Sword."
"Thank you, Kakashi-sensei."
"Haha, now, you should rest early as we will return to Konoha tomorrow." Kakashi finished speaking and returned to his room while waving his hand.
Sasuke watched Kakashi leave without moving.
After a while, Sasuke looked at the Kusanagi Sword in his hand. No, it should be called the Sky Cloud Sword from now on.
"Sky Cloud Sword…"
Sasuke picked up the Sky Cloud Sword and went to the courtyard, training the sword technique he had learned.
For a while, Sasuke looks like dancing with the Sky Cloud Sword in his hand.
Under the moonlight, that vigorous figure resembled a young man who was practicing swordsmanship in Hatake Clan's Residence more than ten years ago.
When Kakashi who was upstairs saw this scene, he showed a happy smile.
"This kind of Sasuke seems to be good too."
Nothing happened in the night, and early the next morning, Kakashi and others declined the invitation from Daimyo to celebrate and set off to return to Konoha.
The group of seven people walked swiftly all the way, and within two days of travel, they returned to Konoha.
In the Hokage Tower, Kakashi and Shikaku reported the mission together.
"So that's the case, is it really that Orochimaru?" Tsunade muttered.
"Yes, and it feels like Orochimaru has performed another Fushi Tensei (Living Corpse Reincarnation)," Kakashi said.
"Fushi Tensei? This guy is still the same as expected. Forget it, it's not easy to find him," Tsunade said.
Hearing this, Kakashi and Shikaku glanced at each other without showing any particular expressions.
Finding Orochimaru is not an easy task. The manpower and material resources spent compared with the actual results are really disproportionate.
Why does most of the S-rank missing-nin can go unpunished?
It is because it is difficult to catch them.
After all, most of the S-rank missing-nin has the Kage level strength. And how many Kage level combat power does a village have?
Why not sending Kage level combat power to hunt down the S-rank missing-nin?
Let's not talk about the problem of wasting resources, if this Kage level combat power is counter-killed, then it will be irritating.
Therefore, even though the S-rank missing-nin has the highest rank of bounty, the intensity of catching them is the lowest.
Unless they happen to meet them, or if this S-rank missing-nin cause great trouble to the village, only then the village try to arrest them.
Otherwise, most Shinobi Villages generally don't care about the S-rank missing-nin.
"By the way, where's the Kusanagi Sword?" Tsunade asked.
"Uh, this…" Kakashi scratched his head embarrassedly.
Tsunade looked at Kakashi and said, "Did you take it?"
"It was originally our loot. Shouldn't it be fine if we take it?" Kakashi said with a smile.
Bang!
With a loud bang, Tsunade's powerful fist hit the desk, and then she said, "What did you say? Say it again?"
"This…Tsunade-sama, isn't it okay?" Kakashi said with a smile.
"Hmph!"
Tsunade snorted coldly and retracted her fist. She then said, "Is it for Sasuke?"
"Yes."
Kakashi is not surprised if Tsunade knew about it. After all, he can't give it to others except Sasuke.
"The workload has doubled recently."
Kakashi rolled his eyes when he heard Tsunade's words. 'Well, I knew that this would be the result.'
Shikaku on the side couldn't help but snickered when he heard this, while showing a gloating expression.
Tsunade didn't pursue the matter of the Kusanagi Sword anymore, just like Kakashi thought. After all, it was just a fake Kusanagi Sword so Tsunade didn't care about it.
But a little revenge is indispensable.
So, in the next few days, Tsunade Tsunade threw a lot of documents to Kakashi, and Kakashi was so busy that he can't do anything else, and he fully experienced what it feels to be someone slave.
Tsunade spent several days of leisure time happily.
And when Kakashi finally got rid of the horror work given by Tsunade, the arrival of a toad broke the tranquility.
Kakashi was resting on the bed at his house, and he suddenly heard a sound.
"Croak!"
"That is… toad?"
Kakashi was taken aback and stand up from the bed. Sure enough, there is a toad on the windowsill.
The toad hopped and jumped onto Kakashi's bed. And then it spewed out a scroll full of saliva from his mouth.
Kakashi then take the scroll and saw that there is a seal on it.
"This is… a letter from Jiraiya-sama?"
Kakashi unlocked the seal, and read the content. After reading it, he couldn't help but frown.
Immediately, Kakashi burned the letter and murmured: "It seems that I need to leave the village again."
Report chapter
Chapter 397 – 397 Opening The Seal?
Kakashi told Tsunade about this matter. Tsunade did not object, and approved Kakashi's application to leave the village.
Kakashi made a little preparation and left Konoha. In the forest outside Konoha, he used the Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder God Technique).
A spatial fluctuation appeared in the forest for an instant, and then Kakashi disappeared.
Withered Town, a small town on the border of the Land of Fire.
There is not much prosperity or excessive poverty here. It is just a small town that is inconspicuous in the Land of Fire.
But today, in this ordinary town, there are a few great figures in the Shinobi World.
In the hotel, Kakashi's figure quietly emerged.
Kakashi stood still, and saw a man with long white hair in front of him.
"Jiraiya-sama." Kakashi said respectfully.
Jiraiya smiled and said: "Kakashi, you come so fast. Just like Minato."
"Thanks for the praise, Jiraiya-sama. By the way, where's Naruto?" Kakashi looked around, but he did not see Naruto.
"Naruto probably is still asleep at this time. Yesterday's practice was a bit tougher, so there is nothing wrong with sleeping longer," Jiraiya said.
"So it's like that. Jiraiya-sama, you said in the letter that you plan to remove Naruto's seal?" Kakashi asked.
"To be precise, it's not remove, but to open it slightly and let Naruto try to control the power of Kyuubi. Kakashi, have you ever entered Naruto's body before and talked to Kyuubi?" Jiraiya asked.
Kakashi did not deny it, and said directly: "Yes, when Naruto was a child, I used the power of Sharingan to enter the Kyuubi's seal and talk with the Kyuubi. After that, the Kyuubi control his strength, and did not interfere with Naruto's training."
"No wonder that even after being sealed for so many years, I didn't feel Kyuubi's Chakra leaking from Naruto. After all, it's been a long time since he's sealed in Naruto, so the seal should be weakened. I'm really curious though, how did you make Kyuubi obedient?" Jiraiya looked at Kakashi curiously.
Kakashi smiled but didn't answer.
Seeing Kakashi didn't want to answer, Jiraiya sighed and said, "Forget it, it seems that you don't intent to answer it."
"Thank you for your understanding, Jiraiya-sama."
"You brat, I don't understand you more and more." Jiraiya sighed. At this moment, he had the illusion that he was old.
"Jiraiya, you meant that you want to make Naruto to become a perfect Jinchūriki like Killer B?" Kakashi said.
"Yes, this is what Minato wanted. Minato used the Dead Demon Consuming Seal to divide the Kyuubi into two parts, one yin and one yang. Then, the Yang part of Kyuubi was put into Naruto's body with the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style, while the Yin part of Kyuubi entered the belly the Shinigami with Minato. Before Minato died, he gave the key to the Naruto's seal to the Toad Race, and asked the Toad Race to pass it to me, hoping that I would help Naruto to fully grasp the power of the Kyuubi."
Hearing this, Kakashi frowned and said: "I think it's still too early. Naruto is just 15 years old, and he didn't necessarily have the strength to control the Kyuubi so it is too risky."
"No, we should give it a try. In the past two years, Naruto's strength has improved a lot. If Naruto can control the Kyuubi's strength, then Akatsuki's threat to Naruto will be reduced to almost zero. Even if it fails, both of us are here. I believe that even if Naruto couldn't control it and rampage, we can stop it without any trouble" Jiraiya said.
"This…maybe we can give it a try, but we only need to open the seal by a little bit. If it's too much, there may be some trouble," Kakashi said.
"Hahaha, rest assured, I understand that. It's okay to open it up to Four Tails' strength and let Naruto get used to it. If it's too much, it may be troublesome," Jiraiya said.
"Since that is the case, I have no objection."
"Good!"
Jiraiya said, and with a wave of his right hand, a creature like a scroll came out of him.
"This is…" Kakashi was surprised.
"This is Gerotora, Mount Myōboku's scroll toad, who closely guards whatever secret has been written on its scroll-abdomen. Back then, Minato handed over the key to the Kyuubi's seal to him," Jiraiya explained.
Gerotora exclaimed, "Jiraiya, did you call me?"
"Yeah."
"Why did you call me?" Gerotora said impatiently.
"I want Naruto to try to master the power of Kyuubi, so I need your help."
"You want to open the Kyuubi's seal?" Gerotora asked.
"Yes, I want to give it a try. If it succeeds, we can proceed to the next step," Jiraiya said.
"Jiraiya, this is a very dangerous thing. If it is not done properly, even you will be seriously injured." Gerotora said solemnly.
Hearing this, Jiraiya just laughed and then said: "Hahaha, don't worry, I have my own measures."
"Well, since you want to do this, then I naturally won't argue. When the time comes, you can just call me out."
After Gerotora finished speaking, he got into Jiraiya's body again.
After signing the contract, Gerotora will enter the contractor's body until the contractor dies or the contract is reached.
Therefore, Gerotora have always been inside Jiraiya's body.
And he is also the key for Naruto to fully control the power of Kyuubi.
"Kakashi, everything is ready now. We just need to wait for Naruto to wake up." Jiraiya said with a smile.
"Yes, Jiraiya-sama."
"By the way, Kakashi, where did you go in the past two years? If I didn't learn from Tsunade that you have returned, I would do this myself," Jiraiya asked.
"I went to a place that shouldn't have been visited, and met some people who shouldn't have been met," Kakashi said with emotion.
"Hah, you sure are hard to understand. Forget it, let's just assume I didn't ask."
Kakashi smiled faintly, and didn't explain much. After all, going back to the past is a thing that shouldn't be talked about.
At this time, the door was pushed open.
A yellow-haired teenager in a toad pajama walked in with a sleepy eye.
"Ero-Sennin, why didn't you call me up? It's already noon now. If I delay my training, I will be surpassed by Sasuke. Kakashi-sensei would be disappointed."
The yellow-haired teenager mumbled and accidentally bumped into Kakashi.
"Ouch!"
The yellow-haired teenager looked like he was not awake. When he suddenly hit something, he fell directly to the ground.
"Naruto, you have grown taller, but why hasn't this problem been corrected yet?"
The familiar voice rang in Naruto's ears, and Naruto immediately woke up.
He opens his eyes and looks at the person in front of him.
Naruto's expression went from shock to surprise, and he immediately leaped into Kakashi's body.
"Kakashi-sensei!"
Chapter 398 – 398 Kyuubi's Chakra Cloak
Seeing Naruto who leaped into his body, Kakashi was a little helpless, and said: "Naruto, come down."
Naruto quickly got off Kakashi when he heard this.
It's not that Naruto thinks that is bad, but Kakashi's order is something Naruto has always listened to.
"Kakashi-sensei! Why are you here!" Naruto exclaimed excitedly.
Kakashi smiled as he patted Naruto's head and then said, "Sorry for not telling you."
Naruto enjoyed this action of Kakashi very much, and then said, "Well, it's okay. It's great to see you, Kakashi-sensei!"
"Is your training still going well?" Kakashi asked.
"Yeah! It's going very well! You should ask Ero-Sennin how hard I trained every day!" Naruto said quickly, fearing that Kakashi would misunderstand him being lazy.
Hearing this, Jiraiya smiled and said: "Kakashi, Naruto is often lazy."
When he heard Jiraiya's words, Naruto shouted nervously!
"Aaah! Ero-Sennin! Don't talk nonsense! I obviously work very hard every day!"
"Hahaha! It's really rare for me to see you nervous like that Naruto, hahaha!" Jiraiya laughed heartlessly.
"Ero-Sennin, you…!" Naruto yelled angrily.
"Alright, alright, I know that you are working hard. Let's go, there is an important training for you today, I hope you can work hard to complete it." Jiraiya suddenly suppressed his smile and said seriously.
Hearing this, Naruto was taken aback for a moment, after all, Jiraiya was always laughing and joking. He knew that when he looked serious, it meant that he was going to do something.
"Hey, Ero-Sennin, what do you want to do?" Naruto asked with some fear.
"Don't be nervous, just some new training. You see, for this practice, I even called Kakashi. Do you know how important it is?" Jiraiya said.
When Naruto heard this, he looked at Kakashi who is on the side.
Kakashi nodded slightly and said, "Naruto, you should just do your best for this training, and don't force yourself."
Hearing this, Naruto immediately said confidently: "Yes! Kakashi-sensei! I won't let you down!"
"Well, since we have finished the discussion, let's move to another place. This place is not suitable for the next training."
Jiraiya said, and then he jumped out of the window.
"Naruto, let's go."
"Yeah! Uh, no! I haven't changed my clothes yet!" Naruto said.
"You don't need to change it, that clothes is pretty cute."
Kakashi grabbed Naruto and also jumped out the window.
Naruto had no choice but to follow the two and leave without changing.
The three quickly left the town and entered a valley.
Jiraiya then stop and murmured: "This place is good, it's just right."
Behind him, Kakashi and Naruto also stop.
"Ero-Sennin, why did we need to go so far?" Naruto asked curiously.
"Naturally it's to make it easier to train. Wait a minute."
Jiraiya said. He then bites his right thumb, and formed some hand seals.
"Kuchiyose no Jutsu!" (Summoning Technique)
In an instant, a huge flesh-colored space appeared in front of the three.
"Wow! It's so big, it's like a big ball of meat!"
The huge flesh-colored space almost filled the entire uninhabited valley.
Jilaiya put his right hand on it, and a door with the size of a person appeared.
"This is the oesophagus of a giant toad from Mount Myōboku: Rock Lodging. It is a self-contained space and has a very strong defense ability. If we train inside it, there will not be any trouble."
"As expected of Ero-Sennin, you're really thoughtful!" Naruto said joyfully.
Kakashi looked at Naruto and couldn't help but feel a little helpless. Naruto is still the same knucklehead as before as he didn't understand why Jiraiya need to summon this to train.
If he was able to think about it a little bit, maybe he won't be able to laugh at this time.
Naruto walked in happily. Jiraiya nodded towards Kakashi. Kakashi understand the meaning, and walked in as well.
Jiraiya followed closely from behind, and then, the entrance was closed immediately.
"Wow, this place is really big, it looks completely different from the outside." Naruto looked around curiously.
These three then walked to the center. After a while, Jiraiya stopped and said, "Let's do it here."
"Huh? Ero-Sennin, what are we going to do?" Naruto asked curiously.
"Naruto, remember I told you before that there is there a fox in your body?" Jiraiya said.
Naruto was taken aback when he heard this, and his expression turned a little bleak, but he still nodded.
Naruto's feeling about Kyuubi is actually very complicated.
He has a sad childhood for so many years because of the Kyuubi, so Naruto was actually a bit resistant of Kyuubi.
He also didn't communicate much with Kyuubi, only occasionally.
Kyuubi always had a cold face, so Naruto didn't have much interest in communicating with him.
At least for now, Naruto hasn't actively looked at the Kyuubi yet.
"Naruto, your training this time is to try to control that power," Jiraiya said.
"Control that power?" Naruto was a little confused, and then continued: "But Ero-Sennin, I can already borrow that power freely."
Jiraiya shook his head and said, "No, that's not enough. those powers are less than one ten thousandth of the Kyuubi's real strength. You have to get more powerful power from the Kyuubi."
"What should we do then?" Naruto asked.
"I will open your seal for a little bit. When the power of the Kyuubi overflow into your body, you have to learn how to control these powers, understand?" Jiraiya said.
Naruto nodded and said: "Okay!"
At this time, Kakashi said: "Naruto, if you want to control the power of Kyuubi, remember, to communicate and understand, and do not force it."
"Communicate and understand?" Naruto was a little confused.
"It's okay if you don't understand now, just be sure to remember it. If your brain can't remember, let your body remember that feeling, understand?"
"I understand, Kakashi-sensei! It is like climbing tree and walking on the water training!" Naruto stunned.
"That… that may be true, but the difficulty and approach are completely different," Kakashi said.
"It's okay, Kakashi-sensei, I will figure it out!" Naruto said confidently.
"Well, Kakashi, don't worry about this. Naruto is not a type that can learn from just theory. It's better to just let him experience it once," Jiraiya said.
"Well, that's true." Kakashi nodded.
Seeing this, Jiraiya summoned Gerotora again.
However, Gerotora didn't say anything. He stretched out his hand and pressed it directly on Naruto's abdomen.
"Okay, you can handle the next thing yourself."
Jiraiya and Kakashi were both taken aback, 'Aren't you moving too fast?'
Naruto was also taken aback. Suddenly, he felt a burning sensation in his abdomen, and a huge force seemed to be pouring out of it.
"Argh!" Naruto loudly shouted, a powerful wave of air was formed instantly!
"For the power to be such a degree even if it's just opened by a little, as expected of the Kyuubi," Jiraiya exclaimed.
At this time, the red Chakra slowly overflowed from Naruto's abdomen.
"Is it coming out?" Jiraiya frowned.
Naruto's eyes instantly turned into the vertical pupils of a fox, and his murderous aura was overflowing. The red Chakra on his body gradually formed a Chakra Cloak, covering Naruto's body.
Behind him, there is a red fox tail made from Chakra.
Kyuubi's Chakra Cloak!
Chapter 399 – 399 Rampaging Naruto
"It seems that the Kyuubi's Chakra has begun to leak out," Kakashi said.
"Yeah, but this intensity is really amazing. It is just a tail, but it already has the aura of Jōnin. I wonder what happened if the Kyuubi is not split into half." Jiraiya said with emotion.
Kakashi nodded as he is also very curious about how strong the intact Kyuubi was.
The original Kyuubi had two powers, yin and yang. Now, what is in Naruto's body is only Yang half of the Kyuubi.
But even if it was just the Yang half, during the war in the original work, Naruto with the help of Kyuubi could fight against five Bijū at the same time and still had the upper hand.
If it is a complete Kyuubi, does that mean that all the other eight Bijū won't be his opponents?
It must be said that when distributing the power of the Bijū, Sage of Six Paths is too biased towards the Kyuubi.
Compared with the other Bijū, Kyuubi got the most power.
"Naruto, how do you feel?" Kakashi asked.
"It feels good, but there is a killing intent in my heart. There is also a burning sensation on my skin," Naruto said.
"It seems that the current Naruto can now control the power of one tail freely." Kakashi muttered.
"Yeah, after all, it's just equivalent to Jōnin's strength, so it is to be expected. Now, let's continue." Jiraiya said.
Time continued to pass by.
The Bijū Chakra Cloak on Naruto's body became more and more red, and after a while, the second tail appeared!
Naruto only felt that the burning sensation on the skin was a bit stronger, but it was still bearable.
Soon, the third tail grew out!
"Jiraiya-sama, the speed of the strength is getting leaked is becoming faster," Kakashi said.
Jiraiya's expression also became a little serious.
He can feel that Naruto's strength is gradually approaching towards the Kage level strength.
"The strength of the three tails is around Elite Jōnin. Then, is the fourth tail equivalent to the Kage-level strength?" Jiraiya muttered.
"It should be correct, but it seems that Naruto can't hold it any longer."
Naruto was already on all fours at this time, and with the Bijū Chakra Cloak on his body, he looked like a fox.
The beard on his face became more obvious, his nails grew a lot longer, and even fangs appeared.
"Aahhh!"
Naruto roared, and a powerful wave of air shook the entire space!
Kakashi narrowed his eye and secretly thought: 'The power of Kyuubi is really terrifying. It's just the third tail but it already has this level of strength. It seems that the fourth tail is equivalent to the Kage-level strength. No wonder Naruto can fight against Orochimaru with the fourth tail and still has the upper hand.'
When Kakashi is still thinking, the three blood-red tails wrapped Naruto tightly.
The skin seemed to be fading away little by little, and Naruto's appearance can no longer be seen.
At this point, Naruto is like a small Kyuubi, his whole body appeared black and red, and his eyes became white.
"Roar!"
A roar like a beast came from Naruto's mouth!
"It seems that the situation is a bit bad. Naruto can no longer control the Kyuubi's power after reaching the fourth tail and he already lost his reason." Jiraiya said solemnly.
"Yes, the power that Naruto can control today is only up to the third tail. As for the fourth tail, he can't do it. In this case, I am afraid that it will be long before Naruto can completely control the full power of Kyuubi. Moreover, I am afraid that this way of mastering is not the right way. Right now, Naruto probably has already lost all of his skin. I heard that the Hachibi's Jinchūriki, Killer B has a good relationship with the Hachibi, and he can turned to Bijū anytime," Kakashi explained.
"Become a friend with Kyuubi? Naruto can only rely on himself for that, but I now understand where Naruto's limits are at. In the future, I can also do some more focused training," Jiraiya said.
"In that case, let's disperse the Kyuubi's Chakra from Naruto as soon as possible. I am afraid that his body will not be able to support it if he stayed in that state for a long time," Kakashi said.
"Yeah."
Just after Jiraiya responded, the four-tailed Naruto suddenly opened his mouth, and a little bit of red and blue Chakras condensed in the air.
Kakashi was surprised and said: "Damn, Naruto is condensing Bijūdama!"
Jiraiya was also surprised when he saw the terrifying Chakra that was condensed. If it hit him head-on, he knew that he would die without leaving corpse.
Bijūdama was ready in no time, but the four-tailed Naruto didn't launch it directly, but swallowed it into his mouth.
In an instant, the body of the four-tailed Naruto quickly swelled.
"Not good! Get out of the way!"
As soon as Kakashi's voice fell, the terrifying Bijūdama was spurted out of four-tailed Naruto's mouth!
The Bijūdama moves towards Kakashi and Jiraiya.
However, these two are powerful expert, so how can they be hit by Bijūdama when they are prepared.
Bijūdama failed to hit any of the two, and finally bombarded the oesophagus of the Rock Lodging.
In an instant, a big hole was formed on the stomach wall.
But soon, the big hole was quickly repaired.
"What a terrifying power. The defensive power of the Rock Lodging's oesophagus is strong but I didn't expect it to be broken by just a blow." Jiraiya murmured.
Jiraiya now understands why Minato bet on putting the Kyuubi on Naruto's body at the end of his life.
Because Minato knew the power of Kyuubi very well, after all, he was the man who slept with Kyuubi's Jinchūriki.
Therefore, Minato knows that once Naruto fully mastered the power of Kyuubi, he will have the confidence to face the unknown enemy.
"Jiraiya-sama, Naruto has lost his mind now, so we have to find a way to re-seal the power of Kyuubi," Kakashi said.
"Yeah, I am already prepared." Jiraiya said, taking out a piece of paper from his pocket.
"This is the sealing paper that can seal the Kyuubi's Chakra. We just need to stick it on Naruto's forehead."
After Jiraiya finished explaining, he handed the sealing paper to Kakashi and said, "Kakashi, you are faster than me. After this, I will hold Naruto, I want you to take that opportunity to stick this sealing paper on Naruto's forehead."
"Okay, no problem." Kakashi took it and moved to the side, waiting for the opportunity.
Seeing Kakashi is ready, Jiraiya looked at Naruto.
At this moment, Naruto has already lost his reasoning. He is on all fours, and his eyes were extremely hollow.
"Sure enough, this kind of thing can't be done randomly."
Jiraiya said as he rushed towards Naruto.
But before he got close, Naruto's four tails turned into sharp weapons and shoot towards Jiraiya!
Xiū xiū xiū!
Seeing this, Jiraiya moved around flexibly, avoiding the tail attack.
Jiraiya then began forming hand seals with both of his hands!
"Ranjishigami no Jutsu!" (Wild Lion's Mane Technique)

Chapter 400 – Cooperation
Jiraiya's white hair instantly stretched, forming long white ropes, and flew towards four-tailed Naruto.
Ninjutsu using hair is one of the major features of Jiraiya.
With its powerful strength, it is also one of Jiraiya's most commonly used Ninjutsu.
The long white hair formed the shape of a lion's head, and then entangles the four-tailed Naruto tightly.
The four-tailed Naruto's limbs are completely restrained!
"Roar!"
The four-tailed Naruto screamed and snarled, trying to break free of Jiraiya's annoying hair.
"Now!" Jiraiya shouted in a low voice. Hearing this, Kakashi used Shunpo directly and rushed towards Naruto.
Holding the sealing paper in his right hand, he was about to stick it on Naruto's forehead.
But, at this moment, the four-tailed Naruto struggled crazily, and the shackle formed by Jiraiya's white hair was broken directly!
The white hair scattered, and then a paw was scratching towards Kakashi.
Kakashi was shocked, and quickly backed away.
The sharp claws swiped the clothes on Kakashi's chest, and in an instant, a shallow tear appeared.
Kakashi get back to Jiraiya's side and Jiraiya asked, "Are you okay Kakashi?"
"I'm okay. I just didn't expect that he would break free so quickly. He's really powerful." Kakashi said.
"Yeah, it is much more troublesome than I thought. It will be hard to subdue him without causing damage to Naruto." Jiraiya murmured.
Kakashi also nodded when he heard this.
At this time, the four-tailed Naruto is indeed very strong, and the general Kage-level expert is probably not his opponent.
But compared to Jiraiya and Kakashi, there is still a big gap.
It is not difficult for them to kill Naruto, but the problem is that they want to subdue Naruto without causing any harm.
In the original work, Jiraiya was even seriously injured by Naruto.
It's not that Jiraiya couldn't defeat the four-tailed Naruto, but Jiraiya has to subdue him without causing major damage to Naruto. So the difficulty has risen by several levels.
After all, Jiraiya's Ninjutsu is not suitable for capturing, and they are usually used to kill.
With Jiraiya's strength, maybe the only one who can defeat him before the war is Nagato.
Even Nagato himself admits that if Jiraiya knows his secrets, he will be the one who lose.
"Jiraiya-sama, to restrict Naruto's actions, let's use Earth Release," Kakashi said.
"Well, I will continue to try and hold him. You should find a way to get close to him, but be careful, the strength behind his attack is not a joke," Jiraiya said.
"Don't worry, I know about it."
Kakashi said, and he once again moved to the side.
When Jiraiya saw this, he removed the oesophagus on the ground, and then went formed hand seals!
"Doton: Yomi Numa!" (Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld)
In an instant, a swamp formed under Naruto's feet, and Naruto sank directly!
"Roar!"
The four-tailed Naruto released another roar. He is obviously angry at this time.
The swamp gradually swallowed Naruto's body, and soon, only half of his body was left.
The four tailed Naruto is now furious!
The four tails thrust into the swamp abruptly, trying to get his body out.
Seeing this, Kakashi narrowed his eyes, 'Now!'
Using Shunpo, he directly rushed from behind Naruto, and then, he directly thrust the sealing paper on his hand onto Naruto's forehead!
"Roar!"
With a weak roar, the Kyuubi's Chakra on Naruto receded like a tide.
All that was left was a weak Naruto, whose skin had been corroded by Kyuubi's Chakra.
Kakashi picked up Naruto, jumped out of the swamp and landed next to Jiraiya.
At this time, Naruto has already unconsious, and did not know what happened.
"The Kyuubi's Chakra is really terrifying. It actually directly erodes the skin on Naruto's body." Jiraiya frowned.
"It is indeed terrifying. The Kyuubi's Chakra originally has strong resilience, and using that kind of Bijuu Chakra Cloak will cause corrosive damage to his body. This action will cause great damage to human cells. I am afraid that if things go on like this, Naruto won't be able to live long," Kakashi said and then, green Chakra appeared in his hand as he starts to heal Naruto.
"Well, it seems that this way of mastering is really not good. I have to think of another way." Jiraiya murmured.
Kakashi took back his Chakra and gave up the treatment.
Kakashi knew that this kind of injury can't be cured by his half-baked Medical Ninjutsu.
"That's really the safest way. But we should need Naruto to grow up a little more before we can try another way," Kakashi said.
"Yeah, you're right." Jiraiya nodded.
"Let's go back first. With Naruto like this, I'm afraid it will take some time before Naruto can train again." Kakashi said.
Jiraiya scratched his head and said with a smile: "It seems to be like that. Fortunately, I called you over this time. Otherwise, I'm afraid that it will be really troublesome."
Kakashi smiled and didn't say anything.
In the damp sewer, Naruto once again appears here.
There is stagnant water on the ground, and a dark road ahead.
Naruto was dazed, but there was a force that led him to walk forward slowly.
Finally, he once again reached the huge iron cage, housing the huge figure.
"Idiot, you're here." said Kyuubi coldly.
Naruto was shocked when he heard this and reacted.
"Smelly fox? Why am I here again," Naruto asked in surprise.
"Idiot, I don't even know why you came here. How is it, isn't my strength awesome?" Kyuubi mocked.
Memories started to flood into Naruto's head. After a while, Naruto reacted.
"Smelly fox! It's you again, right?" Naruto yelled.
"Hmph, it's your own fault. After all, you are the one who open my seal slightly and let my power leak out. Since you want to, then I can't let you down. It's just the power of four tails, but you already can't bear it. You're really weak." Kyuubi mocked.
Naruto was furious when he heard this, but there was nothing he can say. After all, it was indeed his lack of strength that prevented him from mastering the power of the four tails this time.
"Smelly fox! Just you wait! One day, I will master all of your power!" Naruto swears loudly, pointing at Kyuubi.
"Oh? What an arrogant brat. Who do you think you are? Thinking that you can master the strength of the Legendary Kyuubi!" Kyuubi said with disdain.
"Because I am Uzumaki Naruto! Smelly fox! One day, you will recognize my strength! After all, I will become the Hokage!"
Kyuubi was slightly startled, and then said: "Boring."
"Aaah! Smelly fox, what are you talking about!"
"Get out, you're really noisy."
With a wave of Kyuubi's paws, Naruto felt dizzy, and then fainted.
"Sure enough, the reincarnations of Asura are all idiots."
