[with card] Enemy of the World
Chapter 14 Under the Mask
[-]. Under the mask
"...What did you say?! Obito and the others... Ugh!"
Hearing that Obito and the others were coming towards Akatsuki base, Kakashi instinctively wanted to sit up from the bed in shock, but accidentally touched his wound halfway, and fell back with a muffled grunt.
"It's better not to move around casually." Bai Jue said, "The time is too short, the intercolumnar cells have not completely overlapped with you, be careful that it will split again if you get excited."
He heard the name of the first generation of Hokage in an unexpected place, but Kakashi is completely in the mood to ask for details now.This is Akatsuki's lair, even if those four are powerful and experienced elite ninjas, such an action would be too reckless.Obito has just awakened the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, and he must not be proficient in using it. It is already very difficult to deal with Kamitobi alone; not to mention that there are other S-rank rebels here, and there are many people whose information is unknown.Even if he is eager for revenge, Mr. Minato should not be such an impulsive person, why would he approve their action so recklessly?unless……
Unless Konoha has learned from some channel that he is still alive.So it really was the news from Kite?He still changed his mind and wanted to use himself as a hostage to lure other people from Konoha to take the bait?
Clenching his fists, Kakashi took a deep breath.Calm down, he said to himself, let's not make a fuss at a time like this.Thinking about it carefully, this matter still has a lot of room for deliberation: Why did Bai Jue, who is an enemy, still tell him about Konoha's movements even when Tobi's order forbids it?Aren't they companions with Tobi?What is the purpose of this move?
He looked at the two Jue, even though his heart was surging, his face remained calm. "This kind of low-level trap, do you think it will work on me? Anyway, it's just trying to lure me to show my weakness in front of Yuan, and find a reason to persuade him to deal with me? It seems that I'm lying here all day. It's blocking your eyes."
Whirlpool laughed: "Your words seem to describe us as loyal ministers who want Yuan to wake up and stop being ambiguous about your affairs. No, there is no such friendship between us and Yuan. Rather, it's the opposite... We and him are in a relationship of mutual use and mutual defense. It is only because of the same goal that we walk together like this. Once there is no need for cooperation, I am afraid that the first thing he wants to kill is It will be us. Of course, our plan is more or less the same."
"Don't waste your time planning alienation, Kakashi." Seeing that the silver-haired Anbe's expression was flickering, he said again, "Even if you tell my words to Kite, he won't react, because he knew these things early on. .He can’t do without us, just as we can’t do without him. Just like now, only he and us can come and go freely in this place, so as a last resort, he can only send us to guard you, not his most trusted Kisame. But thanks to this, I finally gave us a chance to contact you."
"What is your purpose in looking for me?"
"Kite is a man full of mysteries," Bai Jue continued, "not only for you, but also for us. He possesses power and knowledge that should not belong to him and should be unique in this world. He is a member of the Uchiha clan, but neither you nor we can really find out his true identity and origin. He knows too many things in detail, and he acts with ease, as if he has experienced the same thing before, It's like already having experience. Don't you think it's all weird?"
"What does this have to do with me?" Kakashi asked coldly.
"Although Yuan is the leader of Akatsuki, he works alone in the organization, and does not have private contact with other people except for official business." Bai Jue spread his hands, "He never showed any likes or dislikes for anyone or anything, Like nothing in this world meant to him. We used to think so...until he brought you back, saved you at any cost, kept you here and never did anything to you .Hatake Kakashi, what is special about you to him?"
"That's what I want to know, too."
"What we are waiting for is your words." Uzumaki said, "Are you also curious about what kind of face is under his mask? Uncover that mask... Maybe you will find something. If you If you want, we can create conditions for you; since the result is the same no matter what, it's better to ask for clarification at the end, isn't it?"
Kakashi sneered: "It's really unfortunate for him to have a group of subordinates like you secretly plotting against him."
"Don't get me wrong, at least we have never denied Tobi's ability." Uzumaki shook his finger, "He is very powerful... There will be no one in this world who can be stronger than him, even your teacher, the Fourth Hokage, or Neither can Obito who has awakened the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, let alone you who are still seriously injured. None of you can kill him, we can be [-]% sure of this."
"Aren't you worried that I will pass back to Konoha what I heard today?"
"Of course not." Bai Jue replied briskly.The weird and exaggerated smile when he told Kakashi Konoha's team just now appeared on his face again. "Because... dead people don't reveal secrets."
--------
Itachi is stationed in the dark post in the forest around Konoha with his Anbu team.
Although he acted as the commander, he is still the squad leader of the sixth squad.Since the last time Tobi and Kisame raided Konoha, Minato ordered to strengthen their defenses. In addition to leaving the necessary number of manpower guards around the two Hokage and Jinchuriki, the other Anbe squads need to follow the routine as long as they do not go out to perform tasks. Together with the Zhongjangin formation, they went to the village to take turns on duty, in order to find the enemy's traces as soon as possible.
"Everyone, report the current situation," he whispered on the radio.
The team members responded one by one, reporting the code name, location, and status.Soon it was the last person's turn: "Silver Wolf, everything is normal at three o'clock. The shift changer is coming this way."
Itachi raised his head subconsciously, Sharingan passed through layers of branches, but still failed to catch the trace of the figure. "I didn't know you were a sentient ninja."
"My forte is tracking, Captain." The person on the other side of the radio replied quite politely, "It's just that my nose is a little more sensitive."
Itachi sighed silently. "Everyone, gather together."
The members of class six left their hiding places and gathered under the tree where Itachi was.After a while, the shift changer really arrived. After the handover, Itachi ordered to disband on the spot, and he and Yinlang walked side by side in the direction of the village at a leisurely pace.
Because it was related to Sharingan, as early as a few days ago, the second day after the reincarnated Kakashi came to Konoha, Minato told Fuyue about this matter, and briefly described the origin of that eye.Knowing the cause and effect from his father, although Itachi was a little curious about this visitor from another world, he also understood that the situation was unusual, so he didn't rush to Obito's house to see what happened.
What he didn't expect was that the opportunity to contact the other party came so soon.
"Tomorrow Obito, Rin, Sakumo-senpai and Jiraiya-sensei will set off for Ukage Village to carry out the task of investigating Akatsuki's base and rescuing Kakashi." Calling Itachi to Hokage's office, Minato said straight to the point, "But, That creates a problem."
"Another Kakashi thing?" Itachi asked.
"You can call him Lu Jing, or Silver Wolf." Minato nodded, "From today onwards he will officially enter Anbu, this is his code name. I will put him in your sixth class, and what you need to do is not only To make sure no one else finds out who he really is, and to... keep a close eye on his every move."
Itachi's heart shuddered. "Surveillance... is it?"
"As you know, he was summoned by that Orochimaru." Minato rubbed the space between his brows wearily, "Until all doubts are completely eliminated, we can't fully trust him. So, in Jiraiya After the teacher and the others left, I was worried about letting him live in Obito's house alone. Not many people knew about him; I invited him to stay at my house temporarily, but he refused."
"So you want him to live with us temporarily?" Itachi asked.
"His attitude is very firm, so I can only arrange it like this." Minato said helplessly, smiling apologetically at him. "Tomorrow, I will also discuss this matter with Fuyue in detail, please."
"Where, you are being polite."
"One more thing," Minato said again, raising his hand to a nearby scroll, his thumb caressing the cover absently. "A few days ago, Silver Wolf handed in a detailed report on his life history. I have asked Lujiu to sort out the content related to Akatsuki, and circulated it among Jonin and Anbu. You know this. Now I want to It is about another unpublished document about his ten-year experience in Anbu... part of it may be related to the life and death of the Uchiha clan."
"...What?" Itachi rarely showed a shocked expression.
"For some reasons, I can't release the details of this report to the public, and the conversation between us, including your parents, you can't disclose to anyone." Minato sat up straight. , staring at Itachi seriously, with a serious tone, "Silver Wolf's attitude towards you may be different from other people, you need to be prepared. In addition, from today onwards, once someone approaches you with unknown motives, regardless of Who is he, you must tell me immediately."
……
After recovering from his thoughts, Itachi found that they were already walking on the road leading to Konoha's main gate.Glancing from the corner of the eye, Silver Wolf was walking silently on his left, half a step behind; wearing a mask, the hood was pulled down, and the cloak was tightly buttoned, firmly covering his filthy body under the clothes.
However, despite this, Itachi can still feel that the other party is observing him all the time - or in other words, monitoring.
Will it be Watergate's order?Itachi doesn't think so, although the rigor of a ninja makes him used to not being [-]% sure about anything.The last sentence of Fourth Hokage's advice to him that day obviously had nothing to do with Silver Wolf's matter, but was aimed at him personally.All of this must have been caused by that report, so... Could it be that something happened to him in another world, which finally brought disaster to the family?
Ever since he realized that the silver wolf was watching him, this idea has been hovering in Itachi's mind, lingering, making his heart heavy, making Zhishui ask him again and again if he has any troubles.He really wanted to ask Silver Wolf directly to find out where the alert came from, but he also knew that he would never get a response.
I stayed at his house for two days. This reincarnated person was terribly taciturn, but he was able to answer politely when facing Fuyue and Mikoto; and he obviously spent the longest time with Silver Wolf, but when the other party confronted him, except for business, But he has nothing to say and refuses to communicate, which is very different from the easy-going image that Obito described to him before he left.The only one who can be treated differently is Sasuke. Itachi can clearly see that Silver Wolf is always much gentler when facing his younger brother.Combined with Minato's saying that he was Sasuke's teacher in another world, it seems not difficult to understand——
"elder brother!"
A cry brought Itachi back to reality again.Looking up, they had already reached the gate, and it was none other than Sasuke who came up from the gate. "It's already past time for dinner, why did you come back?"
"Sorry, it's a bit late today." Itachi said, looking at Sasuke's clothes, "Are you going out?"
"Well, I've already finished my meal." Sasuke nodded, "Naruto said that there is an abandoned wooden house in the woods on the top of Hokage Rock, and Kiba and Shikamaru are going to explore there tonight, so they asked me to go too. It happened to be on the way , I just wanted to come here for a walk and see if I could meet you."
As he was talking, the 11-year-old child seemed to realize something suddenly. He quickly restrained the excitement in his words, blushed and looked away, and hesitated, "This... such a naive thing, I was originally Those who are not interested are those idiots who want to drag me there!"
Itachi laughed: "There's nothing wrong with going to play with your friends. When you graduate from school next year, you won't be so leisurely in the future." He stretched out his finger and poked Sasuke on the forehead, who said "Oh He took a step back with a sound, "But remember, you can't go too far, and don't leave the scope stipulated by the martial law. Do you understand?"
"Yeah!" Sasuke nodded obediently and gave him a bright smile. "Then I'm leaving!" After speaking, he glanced at Silver Wolf again, then turned and ran away from the way he came.
Itachi watched with a smile as his younger brother's figure gradually shrank into a black spot in the distance.At this moment—"The wooden house on the top of Hokage Rock... I remember that it was a temporary meeting point for Anbu."
This was the first time that Silver Wolf took the initiative to talk to him.Itachi looked at him in surprise: "Yes, so it should be safer to go there. In the event of an accident, they can also be allowed to directly enter the secret passage leading to the headquarters."
"This is the first time I've seen Sasuke like this." Silver Wolf murmured, still staring at the direction where Sasuke disappeared. "So happy, so carefree, so... like a child."
The complex emotions in his tone made Itachi's heart tense, and countless ominous associations flashed in his mind.At this time, Kakashi Hatake from another world withdrew his gaze, turned his head, and looked at him with those eyes of the dead, one black and one red.
"Itachi..." For the first time, he didn't call Itachi the captain, but called him by his first name. "What is the so-called 'weight'?"
--------
Three days have passed since the last conversation.Every day, Bai Ze would report to Kakashi the itinerary of the Konoha team, like an invisible urging talisman, getting closer as time went by.
"They have arrived at the border of the Land of Rain." Today's Bai Jue started with such a sentence, "Even if we have to rest first, and then deal with the men of Sanshoyu Hanzo for a while, within five days at most, they will Come to me. Haven't you made up your mind yet?"
"I see." Kakashi said calmly, "Go, Tobiko."
"Sensible judgment." Uzumaki said, "In order to avoid being too explicit, let me make this trip. Anyway, this guy is a useless piece of wood with no combat effectiveness, and it is okay to stay where he can't help. Yuan." He pointed at nothing, and the latter showed a frustrated expression cooperatively.
Kakashi ignored them.He supported the bed board with his backhand, and sat up slowly; just this simple movement brought another dull pain, which quickly spread from his chest to all parts of his body.He was still very weak, and Kite was not defenseless against him. The three meals a day were only enough to meet the most basic nutritional needs, which greatly slowed down his recovery.But he couldn't wait any longer.
Kakashi lowered his head, looked at his pale palm, and squeezed his fingers tightly together.This time... just make a break.
He closed his eyes, feeling that the seal was constantly eating away at his own chakra, leaving only a very weak part used to reconcile the energy of Bai Jue's body.With his current state, not to mention Leiqie, it is difficult to perform even the simplest transformation technique.
Fortunately, he happened to know a solution to his current predicament.
It was a great help, Kay.Although I only learned a little bit, but...
The first door opens, the second door closes, open!
Under the effect of the Eight Gates Dunjia, the restriction of the brain was completely lifted, and the chakra gushed out, instantly exceeding the speed absorbed by the seal.Without time to appreciate the feeling of regaining strength, Kakashi opened his eyes, quickly formed a series of handprints, and pressed on the bed. "Psychic art!"
puff!
The white smoke dissipated, and what appeared in the same place was a small yellow ninja dog with thick dark circles around its eyes.
"You still have such a hand!" Bai Jue, who was standing at the side, exclaimed.
"Unfortunately, I don't want to be your chess piece for nothing." Kakashi glanced at him, "Only information that can be passed on is meaningful, isn't it?"
Recovering from the surprise, Bai Jue shrugged. "As long as I don't get discovered by the kite, you can do whatever you want."
"Kakashi, what's going on? Where is this?" Bisk sniffled and looked at his master. "Wait, you're hurt!"
"I don't have time to explain, listen up." Before Ninja Dog could continue, Kakashi interrupted it and said hastily. "The reason why I called you here instead of Parker is because you have the strongest ability to hide your breath among the eight ninja dogs. See it?" He pointed to the wardrobe in the corner of the room, "hide there, no matter what happens for a while Don’t come out. Look carefully at every detail, keep it firmly in your heart, and tell Pochi when you go back, so that he can pass it on to his father when he is summoned next time. Remember?”
There was a strong air of entrusting future affairs in his words, which naturally couldn't escape Ninja Dog's nose.Bisker's eyes widened. "You don't want to...are you kidding! It is necessary to do this step—"
"This is an order!" Kakashi snapped.After a pause, his expression relaxed again, and he touched the top of Bisker's head. "Thank you all these years. Also, I would like to say sorry to... father, Obito, Rin and Sensei."
"You guys better hurry up." Bai Jue interjected, "It only takes a few seconds for Yuan to come here through the pupil technique, as soon as Juan Juan finds him, he will come here immediately!"
"Go!" Kakashi pushed Bisk.The latter ran two steps and then stopped, looked back at Kakashi, and let out a low whimper; then it jumped out of the bed, got into the closet without looking back, and closed the door with its tail.
Kakashi watched it do all this, and then lay back down again and covered it with the quilt.
Comparing the power of Bamen Dunjia is its powerful side effect, which can cause a great burden even to a healthy person.Kakashi could clearly feel that while the power was pouring out continuously, the load on the heart was also increasing.All it takes is a tiny stimulus, and the wound filled by Bai Juedi will burst completely, causing the old wound to explode in one fell swoop.
But he doesn't care anymore.
Closing his eyes, Kakashi carefully controlled all the chakra he could mobilize under the drag of the seal.Instead of actively suppressing and assimilating the energy of Bai Jueti, but gathering it up, highly compressing it, and gathering it in the right hand, waiting for it to be triggered——
The nearby space suddenly fluctuated.Yuanfeng rushed out from inside in a hurry, and rushed to the bed in two or three steps. "Why did you suddenly have a rejection reaction?" He asked Bai Jue loudly, his voice was anxious and annoyed, he lifted the quilt while talking, and stretched his hand towards the injured man's chest.
It's now!
Kakashi opened his eyes suddenly, and at the same time he bounced up from the bed, he stabbed his right hand wrapped in lightning towards Tobi's heart.Behind the mask, the red eye was staring at him, full of shock; such a short distance, such a quick attack, he had no time to activate the pupil technique, this time it will definitely work——
flutter--
At the critical moment, the reflexes tempered in hundreds of battles saved Kite's life again.Almost at the same time when Kakashi made a sudden attack, he instinctively jumped up from the side of the bed, thus avoiding the fatal blow; the bluish-white thunder roared and sank into his ribs, and this time the outflowing It is no longer a white substance, but a warm and sticky bright red liquid that belongs to humans.
The next moment he activated the blur, and his body separated from the silver-haired Anbe's hand.Pressing the bleeding wound, Akatsuki's leader staggered back, opening the distance between the two.
But Kakashi couldn't care less about him anymore.
The moment Leiqie started, he felt as if his heart had been pierced by a black stick again.The severe pain exploded from his chest, and his vision turned scarlet in an instant. He spat out a mouthful of blood, his body shook slightly, and he fell backwards as if he had lost his support, and fell heavily on the bed.
The bandages were quickly soaked.In a state of serious injuries, the effectiveness of the Bamen Dunjia is diminishing, and its strength is rapidly losing.
No... not yet... I still have to...
"Do not!!"
Through the strong tinnitus, Kakashi heard Tobi's scream, and the panic in his emotions was exposed, "You can't die! You can't be like this...again!"
Regardless of the wound on his ribs, he stumbled forward and tore off the bandage on Kakashi's chest.Losing the last barrier, blood gushed out more and more continuously, Kite pressed her hand on the blood hole, desperately transporting Chakra into the opponent's body. "Hatake Kakashi, I warn you! If you dare—"
A hand was slowly raised, pressed on his wrist, and grasped firmly.Yuan's roar stopped abruptly; he looked at the silver-haired ninja on the bed, and the latter also looked down at him, his eyes filled with determination to burn everything.
In his other hand the bright blue sphere spun, faster and faster, whizzing—
"Give me... watch it!!"
boom!
The spiral pill dissipated.Cracks spread across the orange surface like a spider's web.Then, finally—
click.
That layer of camouflage broke into countless fragments, exposing the truth hidden underneath.
The moment Kakashi saw that face, his eyes widened in horror.
After being hit by the spiral pill, Kite subconsciously turned her head to the right.At this time, the first thing that came into Kakashi's field of vision was a familiar and terrifying side face despite the difference in age.The eyebrows, the bridge of the nose, and the lips are all shapes that he has traced thousands of times in his heart.
The closed left eye opened, and the purple eyeball rolled to meet his gaze.Then the man turned his face completely; Kakashi could see clearly the scarred right half of his face, the upper brow bone was scratched by the fragments of the mask, and a bloodstain slid down the corner of his eye, the bright red right eye Still stuck in the state of the kaleidoscope Sharingan.
That pattern was exactly the same as what he saw in his eyes filled with tears when he was held in Obito's arms that day.
Kakashi's pupils shrank to the size of a pinhead, trembling violently.
"No...it's impossible..." His trembling voice flowed from his mouth along with the blood, his dead gray lips trembling, "You are not him...you are...a fake..."
The five fingers clasping the wrist loosened.Beating for the last time, the heart under the palm is no longer struggling.Kakashi was still looking in the direction of Tobi, but his gaze had been relaxed and no longer fixed on the opponent's face.
He stopped breathing.
"...What did you say?! Obito and the others... Ugh!"
Hearing that Obito and the others were coming towards Akatsuki base, Kakashi instinctively wanted to sit up from the bed in shock, but accidentally touched his wound halfway, and fell back with a muffled grunt.
"It's better not to move around casually." Bai Jue said, "The time is too short, the intercolumnar cells have not completely overlapped with you, be careful that it will split again if you get excited."

"Aren't you worried that I will pass back to Konoha what I heard today?"

Could it be that something happened to him in another world, which finally brought disaster to the family?
Ever since he realized that the silver wolf was watching him, this idea has been hovering in Itachi's mind, lingering, making his heart heavy, making Zhishui ask him again and again if he has any troubles.He really wanted to ask Silver Wolf directly to find out where the alert came from, but he also knew that he would never get a response.
I stayed at his house for two days. This reincarnated person was terribly taciturn, but he was able to answer politely when facing Fuyue and Mikoto; and he obviously spent the longest time with Silver Wolf, but when the other party confronted him, except for business, But he has nothing to say and refuses to communicate, which is very different from the easy-going image that Obito described to him before he left.The only one who can be treated differently is Sasuke. Itachi can clearly see that Silver Wolf is always much gentler when facing his younger brother.Combined with Minato's saying that he was Sasuke's teacher in another world, it seems not difficult to understand——
"elder brother!"
A cry brought Itachi back to reality again.Looking up, they had already reached the gate, and it was none other than Sasuke who came up from the gate. "It's already past time for dinner, why did you come back?"
"Sorry, it's a bit late today." Itachi said, looking at Sasuke's clothes, "Are you going out?"
"Well, I've already finished my meal." Sasuke nodded, "Naruto said that there is an abandoned wooden house in the woods on the top of Hokage Rock, and Kiba and Shikamaru are going to explore there tonight, so they asked me to go too. It happened to be on the way , I just wanted to come here for a walk and see if I could meet you."
As he was talking, the 11-year-old child seemed to realize something suddenly. He quickly restrained the excitement in his words, blushed and looked away, and hesitated, "This... such a naive thing, I was originally Those who are not interested are those idiots who want to drag me there!"
Itachi laughed: "There's nothing wrong with going to play with your friends. When you graduate from school next year, you won't be so leisurely in the future." He stretched out his finger and poked Sasuke on the forehead, who said "Oh He took a step back with a sound, "But remember, you can't go too far, and don't leave the scope stipulated by the martial law. Do you understand?"
"Yeah!" Sasuke nodded obediently and gave him a bright smile. "Then I'm leaving!" After speaking, he glanced at Silver Wolf again, then turned and ran away from the way he came.
Itachi watched with a smile as his younger brother's figure gradually shrank into a black spot in the distance.At this moment—"The wooden house on the top of Hokage Rock... I remember that it was a temporary meeting point for Anbu."
This was the first time that Silver Wolf took the initiative to talk to him.Itachi looked at him in surprise: "Yes, so it should be safer to go there. In the event of an accident, they can also be allowed to directly enter the secret passage leading to the headquarters."
"This is the first time I've seen Sasuke like this." Silver Wolf murmured, still staring at the direction where Sasuke disappeared. "So happy, so carefree, so... like a child."
The complex emotions in his tone made Itachi's heart tense, and countless ominous associations flashed in his mind.At this time, Kakashi Hatake from another world withdrew his gaze, turned his head, and looked at him with those eyes of the dead, one black and one red.
"Itachi..." For the first time, he didn't call Itachi the captain, but called him by his first name. "What is the so-called 'weight'?"
--------
Three days have passed since the last conversation.Every day, Bai Ze would report to Kakashi the itinerary of the Konoha team, like an invisible urging talisman, getting closer as time went by.
"They have arrived at the border of the Land of Rain." Today's Bai Jue started with such a sentence, "Even if we have to rest first, and then deal with the men of Sanshoyu Hanzo for a while, within five days at most, they will Come to me. Haven't you made up your mind yet?"
"I see." Kakashi said calmly, "Go, Tobiko."
"Sensible judgment." Uzumaki said, "In order to avoid being too explicit, let me make this trip. Anyway, this guy is a useless piece of wood with no combat effectiveness, and it is okay to stay where he can't help. Yuan." He pointed at nothing, and the latter showed a frustrated expression cooperatively.
Kakashi ignored them.He supported the bed board with his backhand, and sat up slowly; just this simple movement brought another dull pain, which quickly spread from his chest to all parts of his body.He was still very weak, and Kite was not defenseless against him. The three meals a day were only enough to meet the most basic nutritional needs, which greatly slowed down his recovery.But he couldn't wait any longer.
Kakashi lowered his head, looked at his pale palm, and squeezed his fingers tightly together.This time... just make a break.
He closed his eyes, feeling that the seal was constantly eating away at his own chakra, leaving only a very weak part used to reconcile the energy of Bai Jue's body.With his current state, not to mention Leiqie, it is difficult to perform even the simplest transformation technique.
Fortunately, he happened to know a solution to his current predicament.
It was a great help, Kay.Although I only learned a little bit, but...
The first door opens, the second door closes, open!
Under the effect of the Eight Gates Dunjia, the restriction of the brain was completely lifted, and the chakra gushed out, instantly exceeding the speed absorbed by the seal.Without time to appreciate the feeling of regaining strength, Kakashi opened his eyes, quickly formed a series of handprints, and pressed on the bed. "Psychic art!"
puff!
The white smoke dissipated, and what appeared in the same place was a small yellow ninja dog with thick dark circles around its eyes.
"You still have such a hand!" Bai Jue, who was standing at the side, exclaimed.
"Unfortunately, I don't want to be your chess piece for nothing." Kakashi glanced at him, "Only information that can be passed on is meaningful, isn't it?"
Recovering from the surprise, Bai Jue shrugged. "As long as I don't get discovered by the kite, you can do whatever you want."
"Kakashi, what's going on? Where is this?" Bisk sniffled and looked at his master. "Wait, you're hurt!"
"I don't have time to explain, listen up." Before Ninja Dog could continue, Kakashi interrupted it and said hastily. "The reason why I called you here instead of Parker is because you have the strongest ability to hide your breath among the eight ninja dogs. See it?" He pointed to the wardrobe in the corner of the room, "hide there, no matter what happens for a while Don’t come out. Look carefully at every detail, keep it firmly in your heart, and tell Pochi when you go back, so that he can pass it on to his father when he is summoned next time. Remember?”
There was a strong air of entrusting future affairs in his words, which naturally couldn't escape Ninja Dog's nose.Bisker's eyes widened. "You don't want to...are you kidding! It is necessary to do this step—"
"This is an order!" Kakashi snapped.After a pause, his expression relaxed again, and he touched the top of Bisker's head. "Thank you all these years. Also, I would like to say sorry to... father, Obito, Rin and Sensei."
"You guys better hurry up." Bai Jue interjected, "It only takes a few seconds for Yuan to come here through the pupil technique, as soon as Juan Juan finds him, he will come here immediately!"
"Go!" Kakashi pushed Bisk.The latter ran two steps and then stopped, looked back at Kakashi, and let out a low whimper; then it jumped out of the bed, got into the closet without looking back, and closed the door with its tail.
Kakashi watched it do all this, and then lay back down again and covered it with the quilt.
Comparing the power of Bamen Dunjia is its powerful side effect, which can cause a great burden even to a healthy person.Kakashi could clearly feel that while the power was pouring out continuously, the load on the heart was also increasing.All it takes is a tiny stimulus, and the wound filled by Bai Juedi will burst completely, causing the old wound to explode in one fell swoop.
But he doesn't care anymore.
Closing his eyes, Kakashi carefully controlled all the chakra he could mobilize under the drag of the seal.Instead of actively suppressing and assimilating the energy of Bai Jueti, but gathering it up, highly compressing it, and gathering it in the right hand, waiting for it to be triggered——
The nearby space suddenly fluctuated.Yuanfeng rushed out from inside in a hurry, and rushed to the bed in two or three steps. "Why did you suddenly have a rejection reaction?" He asked Bai Jue loudly, his voice was anxious and annoyed, he lifted the quilt while talking, and stretched his hand towards the injured man's chest.
It's now!
Kakashi opened his eyes suddenly, and at the same time he bounced up from the bed, he stabbed his right hand wrapped in lightning towards Tobi's heart.Behind the mask, the red eye was staring at him, full of shock; such a short distance, such a quick attack, he had no time to activate the pupil technique, this time it will definitely work——
flutter--
At the critical moment, the reflexes tempered in hundreds of battles saved Kite's life again.Almost at the same time when Kakashi made a sudden attack, he instinctively jumped up from the side of the bed, thus avoiding the fatal blow; the bluish-white thunder roared and sank into his ribs, and this time the outflowing It is no longer a white substance, but a warm and sticky bright red liquid that belongs to humans.
The next moment he activated the blur, and his body separated from the silver-haired Anbe's hand.Pressing the bleeding wound, Akatsuki's leader staggered back, opening the distance between the two.
But Kakashi couldn't care less about him anymore.
The moment Leiqie started, he felt as if his heart had been pierced by a black stick again.The severe pain exploded from his chest, and his vision turned scarlet in an instant. He spat out a mouthful of blood, his body shook slightly, and he fell backwards as if he had lost his support, and fell heavily on the bed.
The bandages were quickly soaked.In a state of serious injuries, the effectiveness of the Bamen Dunjia is diminishing, and its strength is rapidly losing.
No... not yet... I still have to...
"Do not!!"
Through the strong tinnitus, Kakashi heard Tobi's scream, and the panic in his emotions was exposed, "You can't die! You can't be like this...again!"
Regardless of the wound on his ribs, he stumbled forward and tore off the bandage on Kakashi's chest.Losing the last barrier, blood gushed out more and more continuously, Kite pressed her hand on the blood hole, desperately transporting Chakra into the opponent's body. "Hatake Kakashi, I warn you! If you dare—"
A hand was slowly raised, pressed on his wrist, and grasped firmly.Yuan's roar stopped abruptly; he looked at the silver-haired ninja on the bed, and the latter also looked down at him, his eyes filled with determination to burn everything.
In his other hand the bright blue sphere spun, faster and faster, whizzing—
"Give me... watch it!!"
boom!
The spiral pill dissipated.Cracks spread across the orange surface like a spider's web.Then, finally—
click.
That layer of camouflage broke into countless fragments, exposing the truth hidden underneath.
The moment Kakashi saw that face, his eyes widened in horror.
After being hit by the spiral pill, Kite subconsciously turned her head to the right.At this time, the first thing that came into Kakashi's field of vision was a familiar and terrifying side face despite the difference in age.The eyebrows, the bridge of the nose, and the lips are all shapes that he has traced thousands of times in his heart.
The closed left eye opened, and the purple eyeball rolled to meet his gaze.Then the man turned his face completely; Kakashi could see clearly the scarred right half of his face, the upper brow bone was scratched by the fragments of the mask, and a bloodstain slid down the corner of his eye, the bright red right eye Still stuck in the state of the kaleidoscope Sharingan.
That pattern was exactly the same as what he saw in his eyes filled with tears when he was held in Obito's arms that day.
Kakashi's pupils shrank to the size of a pinhead, trembling violently.
"No...it's impossible..." His trembling voice flowed from his mouth along with the blood, his dead gray lips trembling, "You are not him...you are...a fake..."
The five fingers clasping the wrist loosened.Beating for the last time, the heart under the palm is no longer struggling.Kakashi was still looking in the direction of Tobi, but his gaze had been relaxed and no longer fixed on the opponent's face.
He stopped breathing.
