Konoha: Uchiha's Gorgeous Rebellion

In an instant, everyone in Konoha turned pale; the terrifying aura emanating from Kenpachi Zaraki made them stiffen.

Everyone felt as if a sharp blade was pressed against every vital point on their body.

"Lord Kenpachi, Konoha has no intention of intervening in the war between your two sides; however, since your war with Sunagakure is near the Land of Fire, we in Konoha naturally have to pay attention to it."

Kakashi said.

Upon hearing this, Kenpachi Zaraki's eyes flickered, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I accept your answer."

The Konoha members present all breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Kenpachi Zaraki's words; the pressure Kenpachi Zaraki had put on them was simply too great.

However, in the next moment, Kenpachi Zaraki suddenly swung his sword at Kakashi.

Kakashi leaped backward, nimbly dodging the slash.

"Lord Kenpachi, what is the meaning of this!"

Faced with Kakashi's question, Kenpachi Zaraki did not answer, but instead leaped forward and continued to slash at Kakashi with his sword.

A crisp metallic clang rang out.

Kakashi blocked Kenpachi Zaraki's slash with a kunai in hand. At the same time, the rest of Konoha reacted and launched an attack on Kenpachi Zaraki.

"Lightning Release - Lightning Spear".

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique".

Before these ninjutsu attacks arrived, several kunai and shuriken flew towards Kenpachi Zaraki.

Kenpachi Zaraki lightly leaped up and dodged the incoming kunai and shuriken. Then he swept his sword in a circle, instantly shattering all the lightning and fireballs that were aimed at him.

"Ok!"

Once the lightning and flames dissipated, Kakashi's figure had already disappeared from Kenpachi Zaraki's sight.

The next second, a figure suddenly appeared behind Kenpachi Zaraki.

It was Kakashi.

He then thrust his kunai fiercely towards the back of Kenpachi's neck.

However, Kenpachi Zaraki turned around and blocked Kakashi's kunai with his sword.

Then, Kenpachi Zaraki grinned at Kakashi and delivered a flying kick to him.

"Oh!"

Kakashi exploded into a cloud of smoke the instant he was kicked away.

Shadow clone!

At the same time, a piercing sound, like the chirping of a large flock of birds, suddenly rang out.

Kenpachi Zaraki felt a blur before his eyes, and a burst of intense lightning suddenly appeared.

So fast!

This was Kenpachi Zaraki's first reaction.

Kakashi, wielding a ball of lightning, charged forward at incredible speed.

boom!

Amidst a loud explosion, Kakashi's figure stopped in front of Kenpachi Zaraki.

"what!"

Kakashi's eyes widened, his face filled with shock.

His right hand, which was about to unleash Chidori, was caught by Kenpachi Zaraki. Chidori was also crushed in Kenpachi's hand, leaving only a few arcs of electricity flickering before disappearing rapidly.

Kenpachi Zaraki looked at the Sharingan in Kakashi's left eye and praised, "It's truly an amazing move. Only the Sharingan's superhuman vision can allow you to control the movement when using the Body Flicker Technique."

Kakashi uses the Body Flicker Technique for every step he takes during his dash, which is why he can achieve such lightning-fast speed.

"Swish!"

At that moment, two figures flashed and appeared on either side of Kenpachi Zaraki, slashing at him with their swords.

At the same time, an earthen wall suddenly rose between him and Kakashi.

As soon as Kakashi noticed Kenpachi loosen his grip on his hand, he immediately broke free and leaped backward.

Boom!

With a flash of light, the sharp blade energy instantly left several deep cuts on the surrounding ground.

Two Konoha ninjas who had suddenly appeared and swung their swords at Kenpachi Zaraki were sent flying backwards. At the same time, the raised earthen wall collapsed with a roar, turning into a pile of smooth fragments.

Kakashi leaped between the two Konoha ninjas who had been knocked away, catching them one in each hand.

"Don't worry, I used the back of my blade to cut them."

Kenpachi Zaraki watched as Kakashi slowly sheathed his sword.

Seeing this, Kakashi felt a sense of relief, and then quickly glanced at the two people who had caught him.

Sure enough, no wounds were found on either of them.

"Thank you for your mercy, Lord Kenpachi."

Kakashi spoke.

"Kakashi, you really disappoint me."

Kenpachi Zaraki looked at Kakashi with a displeased expression.

"What do you mean by that, Kenpachi?"

Kakashi asked confused.

"I have long heard of the White Fang of Konoha. His swordsmanship is incredibly sharp and unparalleled. I have long admired him and wanted to experience it for myself."

But you…

Kenpachi Zaraki gave Kakashi a cold snort and continued, "As the son of White Fang, you don't seem to have inherited White Fang's swordsmanship."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi's expression turned complicated as memories of his father, Hatake Sakumo, surfaced in his mind.

My father must be very disappointed in me now.

"Gentlemen of Konoha, I hope I won't encounter you on the battlefield; otherwise, I won't show the same mercy as this time."

Kenpachi Zaraki revealed a ferocious smile and spoke to the Konoha members before leading his men away.

Once Kenpachi Zaraki was out of sight, a Konoha ninja broke the oppressive silence, saying, "That guy is too arrogant; he doesn't take Konoha seriously at all."

Kakashi gazed in the direction Kenpachi Zaraki had left and murmured, "The navy of the Land of Rivers will likely be a headache for the village in the future."

In the following days, several small-scale clashes broke out between the Navy and Sunagakure, with reconnaissance teams on both sides suffering casualties every day.

Both the Navy and Sunagakure are waiting for news from Raiga Kurosuki.

Sunagakure Camp.

Rasa frowned as he looked at Temari and Kankuro in front of him and shouted, "This is a battlefield! What are you two doing here?!"

Rasa never expected that Temari and Kankuro would secretly leave the village and come to the camp.

Faced with his father's reprimand, Kankuro hid behind his older sister Temari in fear.

Temari, with her head held high, bravely met Rasa's gaze and said, "If Gaara can come, why can't we?"

"Hmph, Gaara is different from you."

Luo Sha said in a deep voice.

"Gaara... is also Mother's child, he is our younger brother."

Temari glanced at Gaara beside her and said.

Upon hearing his sister Temari's words, Gaara's eyes lit up, and his gaze toward Temari was filled with anticipation.

He felt love from Temari's words.

"Enough! This is not a place for you to act recklessly."

Rasa's face darkened, and he gave Gaara a cold look before saying sternly, "Here, Gaara is not your brother; he is the village's weapon."

Upon hearing this, Gaara's face immediately fell; compared to his sister Temari's concern, he longed for his father Rasa's approval.

At that moment, a figure strode in from outside the tent.

It's Jonin Maki.

"Lord Rasa, Raiga Kurosuki has sent a message."

Maki handed Luosha a small bamboo tube containing a message.

Luo Sha hurriedly took the small bamboo tube and took out a scroll of paper from it. After reading it, he smiled and said, "Great! Kurozuki Raiya has already led his men to Qingchuan Valley."

He paused, then said in a deep voice, "Maki, pass down the order: we will engage the navy in a decisive battle tomorrow."

"Yes, Lord Rasa."
