Chapter 170 Jonin Nohara Rin, Killing Intent Kakashi
[I've already wasted several days! Tomorrow is the teacher's birthday, I have to go home for the Third Shinobi Time-Space battle, otherwise I might miss the Battle of Kannabi Bridge.] Under the cover of night, Ishikawa, possessing the White Zetsu and moving at high speed with his original body, thought to himself.
At this moment, Minato's team must have already returned to Konoha. Kakashi might even have been promoted to Jonin! If everything goes well, he will be back soon; there's plenty of time.
With this in mind, Ishikawa controlled the White Zetsu to unleash the Mayfly Technique at full power, quickly returning to Konoha via the organic network to begin preparations.
Night falls, and the two timelines merge seamlessly once more in the transdimensional room.
Nohara Rin, whom I hadn't seen in a long time, reappeared before Ishikawa. Ishikawa was about to speak when his gaze was drawn to the Jonin chainmail she wore, and his eyes lit up. "Rin, you've been promoted to Jonin?"
"Yes, I was specially promoted by the Hokage yesterday along with Kakashi." Nohara Rin replied with a smile, letting out a sigh of relief. "Ishikawa, I've finally waited for you!"
God knows how worried she was at this crucial moment that Ishikawa wouldn't be able to appear in time before the Third Hokage issued the Kannabi Bridge mission.
In that case, she would be left to face Madara Uchiha alone!
"Sorry, something came up and I'm in a bit of a rush. I'll take care of everything from now on. I'll go with you there tonight." Ishikawa knew exactly what Nohara Rin was worried about, and immediately responded earnestly to reassure her.
Instantly, upon hearing Ishikawa's confident words, Nohara Rin's pretty face flushed slightly, and her fear of Madara dissipated considerably, allowing her to regroup.
Although I knew Ishikawa was no match for Madara Uchiha, having someone else take the risk made me feel a bit bolder.
This is the power of companionship!
"Alright, next we need to finalize a few contingency plans. Also, I need to process your memories in advance, just in case."
"Processing memories??" Nohara Rin's smile faltered, her large eyes looking at Ishikawa with a puzzled and bewildered expression.
Ishikawa simply smiled faintly at this, and instead of answering directly, he activated his pupil technique by moving his right eye.
Meanwhile, in the Land of Waves.
"Sorry, Kakashi. I still haven't found Naruto and Sasuke. The last place their scent disappeared was right by this river." Pakku sighed, scratching his head by the stream in the woods, making Kakashi's tense brows furrow again.
It's been a whole day and night, and we still haven't found any trace of those two guys!
Damn it, who is it...?
Sasuke is the only remaining descendant of the Uchiha clan, and Naruto is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of Konoha. The mysterious disappearance of these two is a serious matter; if not handled properly, not only will he be unable to explain himself upon his return, but it will also cause Konoha a tremendous loss.
And he personally absolutely could not accept this result! That was Obito's clansman and his teacher's son, and also the student he had once again recognized.
Damn it, he was too careless! Because he was worried about Ishikawa focusing on Zabuza, he neglected Naruto and Sasuke here.
"Kakashi-sensei, there's news! Sasuke and Naruto have been kidnapped!" Just as Kakashi was getting anxious and preparing to go to Kirigakure to ask Ishikawa Karin for help, Sakura, who was protecting Tazuna, rushed back and shouted anxiously.
Her eyes were red and swollen, and tears were streaming down her face; she had clearly been crying the whole way...
"What? Kidnapped!!" Kakashi's expression changed instantly upon hearing this, his eyes sharpening. The thing he feared most had happened!
In an instant, the violent killing intent, accompanied by chakra, terrified Sakura, turning her face pale and almost causing her to kneel down...
Thinking of Sasuke and Naruto's safety, Sakura gritted her teeth and spoke again, "Kakashi-sensei, a masked Kirigakure clone came to me just now. He said we have to take Zabuza to exchange for Sasuke and Naruto, and the location is on the bridge under construction."
"Exchange Zabuza??" Kakashi's momentum faltered, and he exclaimed in surprise. If that was all, it would be much simpler.
As long as Naruto and Sasuke's identities weren't discovered and they weren't kidnapped, things wouldn't have gotten out of control.
He was still blinded by concern! He actually forgot about Zabuza and thought that someone had kidnapped Naruto and taken Sasuke away because the information about Naruto being the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki had been leaked.
Without hesitation, Kakashi immediately unleashed his speed and returned to Tazuna's house, finding Zabuza who was being monitored by shadow clones and removing his headband.
"Sharingan? Kakashi, you bastard..." Zabuza was about to ask when he saw this, but before he could finish speaking, his eyes glazed over and he fell into a genjutsu.
"Zabuza, who are your accomplices? How many are there?" Kakashi had no time to waste with Zabuza and used his eye power to get straight to the point.
Soon, under the hypnosis of the Sharingan, Zabuza obediently confessed everything.
"Ice Release Boy Haku. So it's the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai. No wonder Pakkun didn't find it. He must have used Ice Release to hide Naruto and Sasuke somewhere to block their scent." After learning the information, Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly realized.
"But you actually dared to use such despicable tricks to scheme against and threaten me. You underestimate me, Kakashi Hatake!" With a disdainful snort, Kakashi saw through the other party's trick at a glance.
By deliberately delaying for a whole day and night before coming to notify him in the middle of the night, wasn't the purpose to deplete his chakra and energy and weaken the power of his Sharingan?
Naive fellow, you know nothing of the power of the kaleidoscope.
"Let's go see how those two are doing!" Kakashi dismissed the shadow clones, hypnotized Zabuza with genjutsu, and called to Sakura as they headed towards the bridge.
As they hurried along, when they arrived at the half-built bridge, they saw a fully covered igloo already standing there under the cover of night.
"Sasuke, Naruto, are you inside?" Upon seeing the igloo, Sakura immediately shouted to confirm.
"Don't worry, I won't kill them until Lord Zabuza is safe." Almost at the same time, countless figures suddenly appeared from the ice crystals and said in unison.
"However, you'd better not have any other ideas. Inside the Magic Mirror Ice Crystal, I'm definitely faster than you. If anything goes wrong, I'll self-destruct all the ice crystals and die with them." As he spoke, the airtight ice house expanded outwards, creating a gap that allowed Sakura and Kakashi to see the missing Naruto and Sasuke.
"Then Zabuza is back to you, but release Naruto and Sasuke." Kakashi remained noncommittal, outwardly feigning agreement, but the three tomoe on his left eye instantly intertwined and extended into a kaleidoscope pattern.
Fast? Even if it's fast, can it be faster than his Kamui?
"No, I want you to release Lord Zabuza first. Your strength is too great; if we were to exchange places, the two of us might not be able to escape."
"Trading his own life for Zabuza's safety? No wonder he calls him the perfect tool." Kakashi glanced sideways, pretending to talk, but his left eye quickly locked onto the figure that was constantly changing position.
"Wait, Kakashi-sensei." Suddenly, just as Kakashi had locked onto his opponent and was about to make a move, Sasuke, inside the ice crystal, suddenly spoke up to stop him.
"He actually attacked me while my chakra was depleted! How can I let this guy's scheme succeed!" Sasuke glared at the masked Mist Ninja on the ice crystal, his eyes blazing with fury, feeling his face burning.
He's an Uchiha! How could he possibly be exchanged as a prisoner? How could he accept such humiliation?
Keep fighting! Even if it costs you your life, break through the ice crystals, leave this place, and prove yourself!
"Sasuke is right, we are very strong. You damned guy, we will definitely defeat you!" Naruto shouted from the side, glaring angrily as well.
If they are exchanged back, how will they ever face anyone again?
We have to fight tooth and nail! We have to get back at them today.
