Chapter 322 The Shattered Kakashi Team
Chapter 322 The Shattered Kakashi Team
"Kakashi is being chased. No, I have to go save him." Upon hearing this news, Obito Uchiha could no longer suppress his desire to save him.
White Zetsu, half-emerging from the ground, said, "Lord Obito, please don't do anything rash! We just wanted you to see us from a distance. If your identity is exposed, how are we supposed to explain to Lord Ban?"
"Get out of the way. While I'm grateful to you, I don't want to be complicit with you. There are many ways to bring peace to the ninja world, and I think we can work together!"
God the hell is working with you!
They don't care about world peace at all. After all, by species, they're not even human. All he wants is to help Lord Black Zetsu and rescue his mother!
Because he knows more, he is of a higher level than other White Zetsu.
"Don't go over there!"
Bai Jue grabbed his leg, but was kicked over.
"Kakashi..."
As Obito crossed the valley, he saw only the lightning bolt that had surrounded the crowd, piercing through the figure he was pointing at with a single palm strike.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still, and everything became slow motion, stretched out for a very long time.
The light rain in the sky seemed to linger in mid-air, but Obito Uchiha's eyes began to change rapidly, spinning and connecting, transforming into a giant windmill.
Blood was spreading outwards in slow motion. Yuan Yelin's lips twitched, as if he were saying something, but he couldn't hear him clearly from the distance. Was it "thank you"? Why!
Why did Kakashi kill Rin?
As the image freezes, Obito Uchiha's vision begins to widen, and everything he sees is distorted.
The colors changed, the shapes changed, and time and space seemed to be kneaded into a ball and then unfolded again.
His chakra became abundant and vast, his physical abilities and reflexes became incredibly sharp, and space was no longer an obstacle; he could move freely as if there were no hindrance.
Mangekyou Sharingan, is this my talent?
And this is the price I paid for exchanging my talent?
At that moment, Obito Uchiha suddenly remembered a sentence that Madara Uchiha had once said to him: "You are the one I chose."
And now he finally understands.
Since that's the case, from this day forward I am Uchiha Madara. He took out the Uzumaki Mask and put it on his face, revealing two pairs of blood-red eyes. The next second, his body became ethereal and disappeared from the spot...
Jump to one month ago, in Kirigakure.
The Three-Tails Jinchuriki suddenly fell critically ill. Everyone realized that his body had reached its limit, so they arranged for him to stay in front of a lake far away from Kirigakure.
The next day, the Third Mizukage summoned everyone to the conference room for a three-person meeting.
"The Three-Tails needs a new Jinchūriki, and we're running out of time. We must find a suitable host before he dies."
Yuan Shi stepped forward and said, "Third Hokage, although the Three-Tails' chakra is relatively mild, it is still not something that ordinary ninjas cannot withstand. We need someone with a special constitution."
"Fortunately, we've already chosen a suitable candidate: Yagura!"
A 1.5-meter-tall boy walked forward carrying a spear. No one would guess that he was over twenty years old and an elite Jonin, with only a slight chance of breaking through to Kage level.
The Third Mizukage was about to nod, but suddenly a flash appeared in his eyes, his consciousness began to cloud, and he said, "I have already chosen the candidates for you."
After saying that, he took out a document from the previously sealed drawer.
Everyone took a look and stared at the Third Mizukage with disbelief, because they couldn't understand why they had to plunder from another village when they already had a suitable candidate in their own village.
Rin Nohara, a medical ninja from Konoha, possesses exceptional chakra control and a unique physique, making her suitable to become a Jinchūriki.
"From Konoha?" Master Yuan frowned.
"During wartime, there is no better Jinchūriki than the enemy. By turning her into the Three-Tails' Jinchūriki, the Three-Tails will become our weapon, while she will become a burden to Konoha."
This argument is completely illogical, but the Third Mizukage's attitude is firm, and they have no choice but to comply. In particular, the policies recently implemented by the Third Mizukage have made Kirigakure stronger than ever before.
Even Konoha was routed by them, so no matter how outrageous the Third Mizukage's orders may seem, they must have a deeper meaning.
Master Yuan fell silent, feeling that his voice was becoming increasingly insignificant, and now, no one cared whether he agreed or not.
I have a feeling that there is an invisible hand controlling all of this. The Water Shadow has changed from being incompetent to wise, and all of this has become very abnormal.
Especially since he leaves early and returns late, and never lets anyone get close to him in his daily life, perhaps he is being controlled by someone. Yes, that must be it!
Yuan Shi's eyes gleamed with a sharp light, and once such an idea popped into his mind, he couldn't stop himself.
However, the order had already reached the front lines, and the Hidden Mist's ANBU began to move.
At that time, Kakashi Hatake's squad had just withdrawn from the western front.
Three months ago, after Obito's sacrifice, Hiruzen Sarutobi added another genin to their team, but that ninja was killed not long after.
It doesn't matter who did it behind the scenes; the point is, someone doesn't want anyone else in this team.
Later, no fewer than four or five more people joined the team, but all of them died in the line of duty.
Thus, this squad became the fearsome Death Squad. It's unclear whether Hiruzen Sarutobi had figured things out or was simply too busy, but he stopped assigning any more members to their squad a few months ago.
Fortunately, even with a shortage of manpower, they were able to complete the mission smoothly. Just a few days ago, they successfully completed an S-level mission. They thought they would have a few days to rest, but unexpectedly, the mission was assigned the next day.
With the southern front in dire straits, Team 7 immediately set off to support the combined forces of the Uchiha and Hyuga clans.
Kakashi took the order without saying a word.
However, as a member of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Kagami knew the internal details, mainly because a few months ago, the Hyuga clan elder publicly reprimanded Namikaze Minato, which was learned by Hiruzen Sarutobi.
To save face for those he had supported, and incidentally to strike at the ninja clan and establish his authority.
Through several manipulations and arrangements, the identities of several powerful squad leaders in the Hyuga clan were stripped, and they were sent to carry out even more dangerous missions.
The vacant position naturally needs to be filled, and Kakashi Hatake, with his clean background, is the best candidate.
As a result, those branch family ninjas died, lost face, were stripped of their positions, and even their family businesses were quickly taken out of the core circle.
It can be said that Hiruzen Sarutobi was quite skilled; he isolated him in no time and gave him a good talking-to.
Although Hiashi Hyuga apologized to the Hokage on behalf of that elder the next day, an offense is an offense, and words spoken and deeds done cannot be taken back.
