Chapter 18 Rin's World, Kakashi and Obito
In the 45th year of Konoha, outside a simple and unpretentious detached house.
"Bang bang bang..."
Suddenly, a crisp knocking sound rang out, instantly waking Kakashi, who had just fallen asleep.
"Rin? What do you want so late? Is there a mission?" Kakashi quickly got up and opened the door, only to see Rin standing outside, panting heavily and looking anxious.
"No time to explain, Kakashi. In short, I need a detailed guide to mastering Earth Release: Earth Wall."
"Earth Flow Wall??" Upon hearing Nohara Rin's purpose for coming, Kakashi was once again puzzled and confused.
As far as he knew, Rin didn't have Earth Release chakra, so why would she need this detailed explanation of Earth Release?
Could it be that someone forced me? But it's just a B-rank Earth Release technique, which is just an ordinary ninjutsu in the ninja world and has no special value.
However, this is wartime, and anything unusual could be the prelude to an enemy plot! We must be cautious and secretly investigate to protect Lin's safety.
In an instant, a series of thoughts flashed through Kakashi's mind. Without making a sound, he nodded and welcomed Nohara Rin into the house.
"Earth Release: Earth Wall is just a simple Rank B Earth Release technique. I didn't keep any notes about it when I trained. So I can only write it down for you now. Please wait a moment..." Kakashi took out a blank scroll, lowered his head and wrote and drew, trying again.
“Training notes? You still need this??” Nohara Rin exclaimed in surprise, but then immediately shook her head, dismissing the irrelevant thought, remembering the urgency of the situation. “I only have half an hour. Please, Kakashi.”
Aside from the travel time between her house and Kakashi's house, she only had about forty minutes left. She had to shorten the time to ensure that Ishikawa could obtain the cultivation secrets tonight.
"Half an hour? That's enough!" Kakashi paused, a strange light flashing in his eyes, before continuing to write rapidly.
Although he didn't know the exact reason, Kakashi still meticulously wrote down his entire understanding and training tips for Earth Release: Earth Wall. It was just a B-rank Earth Release technique; he wouldn't risk Rin's life for something like that!
Soon, after more than twenty minutes of anxious waiting by Rin, Kakashi finished writing and put away the scroll.
"Thanks, Kakashi..." Rin eagerly snatched the scroll, left a sentence, and rushed out the door.
Time was of the essence, and she also wanted to rush back to improve herself by using the doorknob!
"It seems I need to learn Shadow Clone Jutsu. Hmm, I'll find Minato-sensei to train with this ninjutsu tomorrow." Rin murmured to herself, her eyes resolute, as she quickly sped through the deserted streets in the night.
Unbeknownst to her, a figure silently followed her like a shadow...
A few minutes later, "bang..."
As the door opened and closed, Nohara Rin entered the house and saw Ishikawa sprawled on the sofa, convulsing all over.
"No wonder you prepared a sofa, it's because of this." Nohara Rin saw through Ishikawa's intention at a glance and chuckled.
He then winked at Ishikawa, stuffed the scroll into Ishikawa's arms, placed him on the ground, and then moved the sofa away without a second thought.
"Next, you will be practicing Earth Flow Wall. I'll borrow this for a bit."
Ishikawa? ?
Are we that close? Why are you being so rude...?
However, thinking of the Earth Flow Wall Scroll in his arms, Ishikawa felt no dissatisfaction at all; on the contrary, he secretly laughed with ecstasy.
The Earth Flow Wall was just an excuse; even if he failed in his cultivation, it wouldn't be a big deal! His real purpose was to test Lin's attitude, create a sense of crisis, and find a suitable source for the upcoming intelligence exchange.
That's right, it's trading!
As the saying goes, there are no permanent friends, only permanent interests.
Ishikawa wouldn't be so naive as to stake his entire life on Rin's persona, hoping that his identity as Kakashi's disciple would give him a run for his money.
That's not just stupidity, that's utterly brain-dead!
Rin Nohara was willing to sacrifice her own existence for Konoha, so why couldn't she sacrifice herself for Konoha and even the entire world?
Therefore, Ishikawa needs to be more realistic and down-to-earth.
While the ninja world is full of passion and bonds, it is equally thrilling with its intrigue and darkness...
While Ishikawa was lost in his own thoughts, a figure outside the door was pressed against the door, listening intently!
[There's no sound? Rin should be alone at home. Could I be wrong? But why is Rin in such a hurry? What's going on?] Kakashi wondered to himself, pondering for a moment before deciding not to make any rash moves and slipping into hiding to keep watch.
Time ticked by agonizingly under Kakashi's tense watchful eye. But even by the next morning, he hadn't discovered anything unusual about the mission!
Rin Nohara also got up and washed up as usual in the morning, and walked out towards the Minato team's assembly point with a normal expression...
"Now!" Kakashi, who had been waiting all night, instantly woke up and sneaked into Rin's room as soon as she turned the corner.
Locks and the like are just decorations for ninjas; they are completely useless!
However, after Kakashi carefully checked all the suspicious places in the room, he found nothing wrong.
The only suspicious point that isn't actually suspicious is that the scroll is missing!
"Could it be that I misunderstood Rin?" Kakashi wondered to himself, glancing at the time he was already late. He quickly restored the room to its original state and rushed towards the meeting point.
A few minutes later.
"Kakashi, I didn't expect you to be late too? What kind of elite ninja is this who follows the rules? I think you're just bragging..." As soon as Kakashi appeared, Obito, the conspicuous one, stepped forward to tease and criticize him.
The joy on his face was impossible to hide! Today, finally, it wasn't him, Uncle Obito, who was late...
Especially since it's his most hated rival, Kakashi, this feeling is just amazing!
"Idiot." Kakashi said coldly, walking straight to Rin Nohara, who was about to smooth things over.
"Lin, could you please check the scroll I gave you last night again? It was too late then, and there might be some mistakes!"
"Ah? Um, I didn't bring it with me." Nohara Rin smiled awkwardly, then quickly added, "I already gave that thing to a friend, and it was his request that I troubled you, Kakashi. There's no need to check again; I trust your abilities, Kakashi."
"Is that so..." A strange look flashed in Kakashi's eyes, and he nodded without asking any further questions.
But deep down, a storm was brewing within me...
A friend? Could it be that she gave it to him on the way here? Then, who exactly is that person? How could Lin possibly ask him for the Earth Flow Wall cultivation experience, and even conceal her identity from him?
However, with just one Earth Release: Earth Wall, the opponent must be a ninja from the same village, or perhaps a relative or close friend of Rin!
In short, it shouldn't be the enemy village spy he suspected.
"Huh? Last night? Scroll?? Damn it, what secrets are you hiding from me?!" Looking at the two of them speaking in riddles, Obito felt a surge of jealousy and roared angrily.
How could Rin secretly meet Kakashi so late at night? And for the sake of a friend?
Damn it, who is it?! Who is that bastard?!
