Chapter 35 Kakashi, you actually... stabbed Rin!
The Land of Hot Springs is a long and narrow country. Minato Namikaze's Eastern Army was waging war against Kumogakure in the central part of the Land of Hot Springs.
Nansha City is located in the southern part of the Kingdom of Tang, and is relatively close to the Eastern Legion.
Therefore, it received support first, resulting in relatively small personnel losses in Nansha City.
The city's defense system was also well maintained.
Kakashi, as Minato Namikaze's prized student, successfully became a Jonin at the young age of 12. Like a rising star, he naturally attracted much attention.
For this reason, many Konoha ninja flattered Kakashi, hoping to establish a good relationship with him.
However, since the fall of "Shiratori Castle", all twenty-odd members of Nohara Rin's medical team have been captured.
For more than ten days, Kakashi had been asking around for information about Nohara Rin, but he had not received any definite news.
In the afternoon, deep in the dense forest, three Konoha ninja rushed toward Kakashi Hatake.
The leading ninja bowed respectfully: "Jonin Kakashi, we've spotted Nohara Rin near the east coast. There are over fifty Kirigakure ninja around; it seems they're heading back to the Land of Water. Should we wait for Lord Minato...?"
Upon receiving news from Rin Nohara, Kakashi's pupils contracted slightly.
"No need, I will handle this matter."
His voice was icy. After biting his thumb until it bled, he slammed it to the ground: "Spirit Summoning!"
As the smoke cleared, eight ninja dogs of various shapes and sizes sat in a row.
The lead bulldog, Puck, sniffed, "Kakashi, are you looking for that little girl again?"
Kakashi's voice, unusually, carried a hint of excitement: "Puck, please, help me find Rin! They're near the East Coast!"
Parker nodded and said, "Kakashi, you can rest assured, we are very familiar with Rin's scent."
Then, he turned to the other ninja dogs and said, "Blue, Urushi, you two are in charge of the eastern coastline; Aquino, Guluk, go search the reef area..."
Kakashi had already rushed out, his white, spiky hair appearing and disappearing among the shadows of the trees.
Parker sighed and quickly caught up: "Kid, don't be impulsive again this time..."
The ninja dogs have a strong sense of smell, and they quickly found Nohara Rin, who was tied up with ropes, in a cave by the scent.
Parker tilted his head back, his nose twitching slightly: "Kakashi, this is a trap. There's the scent of over 50 people around."
Kakashi didn't think much of it when he saw Rin; he immediately used the Body Flicker Technique to appear next to Rin.
Gently pat her awake and untie her.
After waking up, Nohara Rin noticed something was wrong.
With trembling fingers, she pressed her hand against her stomach and said, "Kakashi, there seems to be something in my stomach."
More than fifty members of the Mist Shadow ninja were hidden around them, watching the two from the shadows.
A Kirigakure Jonin said softly, "Captain, should we go and capture them?"
The captain gave a tactical hand signal: "Don't forget our mission. We'll feign a pursuit, drive them to Nansha City, then break the seal and let her release the Three-Tailed Beast..."
Seeing that Nohara Rin had escaped, the Kirigakure ANBU no longer needed to hide and all appeared.
Parker raised his head, adopting an aggressive stance like a vicious dog guarding its food, and uttered a low growl: "Ooh... Ooh..."
But seeing the Hidden Mist ninjas throwing kunai at them, it immediately shouted, "We retreat...!"
After saying this, the numerous ninja dogs turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared.
Kakashi and Rin Nohara had no choice but to turn and run for their lives.
......
Obito Uchiha ran frantically, his figure darting through the trees: "White Zetsu, my teacher, why aren't you with Rin and Kakashi?"
White Zetsu's voice was like a leech: "Minato Namikaze is on another mission!"
Obito Uchiha sprinted at top speed: "Damn it, he's never here whenever I need him. Kakashi, you promised me you'd protect Rin... Hurry... faster... I'm almost there..."
As an excellent medical ninja, Nohara Rin sensed something was wrong with her body: "Kakashi, they've sealed a tailed beast inside me! Kill me! I'm losing control of my body!"
Kakashi drew two kunai, turned around, and said, "You run first, I'll hold them off! I promised Obito I'd protect you!"
However, just as Kakashi used Lightning Blade to charge towards the Hidden Mist ninja, Rin Nohara suddenly jumped in front of Kakashi.
"Pfft!"
Rin Nohara's chest burst into a hideous bloom of blood, which splattered onto Kakashi's stunned face.
Her eyes widened in disbelief; her body had suddenly lost control.
She desperately wanted to tell them it was a conspiracy, but her lips trembled: "Kaka...shi..."
After uttering those three words, Nohara Rin lost all her life and collapsed into Kakashi's arms.
"Ahhh...ahhh...ahhh...!"
The fierce roar echoed within a hundred-meter radius as Obito Uchiha's two-tomoe sword spun wildly, eventually transforming into the shape of a three-scythe shuriken.
Kakashi's left eye also transformed into a kaleidoscope shape.
Kakashi's chakra reserves were already low, and since he wasn't a member of the Uchiha clan, the Kamui Mangekyou Sharingan drained his chakra, causing him to faint.
Seeing this farce, the Hidden Mist ANBU knew their mission had failed and were furious.
The leader of the Hidden Mist ninjas said angrily, "Send a few men to kill that 'ahhh...' screaming guy, he's making such a racket."
An ANBU member from the Hidden Mist Village used the Body Flicker Technique to get there, and the Kamui Dimension distorted the area around Obito Uchiha, allowing the attack to pass directly through his body.
Then, Obito Uchiha extended a tree branch from his arm, piercing directly through the body of the Hidden Mist Anbu member.
"This guy's got some skill, everyone attack together!"
Four members of the Hidden Mist Anbu attacked Obito Uchiha from four directions, but their blades pierced right through his body.
At this moment, Obito Uchiha seemed like an unpredictable ghost.
His figure appeared and disappeared intermittently, each flash accompanied by the sound of flesh being torn apart.
"Monster...monster...!" Captain Kirigakure looked at his companion in horror as a wooden spike suddenly appeared and pierced his throat.
As the last Hidden Mist ninja was twisted into a pretzel shape, Obito Uchiha gently picked up Rin's gradually cooling body.
Blood and tears flowed through the spiral patterns on his white mask.
His voice seemed to come from hell: "This false world... is the real hell... Lin, I want to create a world with you..."
