Naruto: The Strongest Kakashi

Under the dim light, Kimimaro is lying on a white bed.

A young man with gray hair and glasses is standing on one side of bed, and on the other side of the bed is Orochimaru.

"Kabuto, how is Kimimaro?" Orochimaru's hoarse voice rang in the dark room.

"Orochimaru-sama, Kimimaro's Kekkei Genkai Disease has recurred. With my medical Ninjutsu level, I am afraid I can only extend his life for a few more months. He won't be able to participate in the Konoha Crush plan this time."

"Is that so? That's a shame."

Orochimaru's voice was still so cold and no one could feel any emotions from him, but what no one saw was that his right hand twitched slightly as he said that.

"I'm sorry, Orochimaru-sama, my body has delayed your plan."

Kimimaro struggled to get up from the bed with guilty expression.

"Haha, Kimimaro, you have already helped me kill Yondaime Kazekage. With this, the plan has been half successful. As for the rest, you can just rest in Otogakure. It's just a Konoha, no need to be afraid."

"Orochimaru-sama ..."

"Just rest Kimimaro."

Oshemaru finished speaking, and then he turned and left.

Kabuto whispered softly: "Kimimaro, just take a good rest, don't make Orochimaru-sama angry."

"I know, but there is Hatake Kakashi in Konoha, I am afraid…"

Kabuto said with a smile: "Don't worry, Orochimaru-sama already found the solution."

"Really? That's good."

Kimimaro lay down upon hearing this and stopped moving.

Upon seeing this, Kabuto then also walked out of the ward.

With the sound of closing the door, Kimimaro opened his eyes.

"Hatake Kakashi, I didn't expect that in the end, I still couldn't defeat you. I didn't even have the strength to stand in front of you. Damn it!"

The white sheets were crumpled by Kimimaro.

"Orochimaru-sama, Kimimaro is already lying down."

"Good, Kabuto, is Kimimaro's Kekkei Genkai Disease really incurable?"

"Orochimaru-sama, our information about Kekkei Genkai Disease is really too little, and Kimimaro is the last member of the Kaguya Clan so there is no other reference. At my level, it is almost impossible to cure, unless there is a record of the Kaguya Clan's Kekkei Genkai Disease. Perhaps only Tsunade who is known as the best Medical Shinobi in the world can cure it."

"Tsunade? Haha, I haven't seen her since the end of the Second Shinobi World War. I don't know where she is now. Order some people to go and search about Tsunade's whereabouts."

"Yes, Orochimaru-sama."

"The Konoha Crush Plan continues. By the way, has Kakashi returned to Konoha?"

"He just went back a few days ago. He is now a Jonin teacher. It is estimated that he will not leave Konoha in the near future. Will it affect our plan?"

"No, I have prepared a big gift for him, and he will be busy at that time."

Orochimaru stretched out his long tongue and licked the corner of his mouth, revealing a playful smile.

"Kabuto, be careful when you return to Konoha. Kakashi is not someone to be underestimated."

Kabuto pushed his glasses, and the lenses shines with a white light.

"I know, Orochimaru-sama."

"Okay, go."

Kabuto left, and Orochimaru was still in the lab where the sky is not visible.

"Even the most beautiful flower will wither after all."

Orochimaru looked at the dim candlelight, and his golden pupils became a little distracted.

"Sarutobi-sensei, can you escape this time? You are old now, living less and less like Shinobi. As a Kage, you have lived too long. As your student, let me give you a grand departure."

"I guess it's time to move."

Orochimaru gently extinguished the candlelight, and the room was instantly plunged into darkness, leaving only the golden pupils which exuded a gloomy light.

"Huh? Chunin Exam?" Naruto looked at Kakashi suspiciously.

"Yes, it's the Chunin Exam. Didn't I say that if you complete the mission before, I will recommend you all to take the Chunin Exam? The Chunin Exam will start a week later, so you should prepare well during this period of time," Kakashi said.

Naruto and Sasuke are both excited, but Sakura is feeling a little hesitant.

"Of course, it is your will to participate in the event or not. If you don't want to, you can just withdraw."

"Kakashi-sensei, what are you saying, of course we are willing, right, Sasuke, Sakura-chan?" Naruto turned to look at Sasuke and Sakura.

Sasuke showed an arrogant smile and said, "Of course, it is definitely a good exercise to be able to compete with other excellent Genin. I will definitely participate."

Sakura hesitated and said, "Can I really take the Chunin Exam?"

"Sakura-chan, you have to believe in yourself, you are great," Naruto said.

"Really?" Sakura was a little surprised.

Upon seeing this, Sasuke said: "Sakura, you have made a lot of progress than before, and you are indeed a lot better."

"Really? Since Sasuke-kun said so, I will also take the Chunin Exam!" Hearing Sasuke's compliment, Sakura's fighting spirit instantly exploded.

Naruto glanced at Sasuke a little uncomfortably, but Sasuke ignored him.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Kakashi couldn't help but shook his head. The feelings of these three guys were so messed up that he was too lazy to care.

"Okay, I will give you the registration form when the time comes. During this time, you have to perform your mission properly, otherwise I won't register for you at that time."

"Yes! Kakashi-sensei!"

"Okay, today's mission is to help Kuchiba-san to pick herbs."

"Ah, what a boring mission, I miss the time of the C-rank mission," Naruto called.

Sasuke also had the same expression.

Unfortunately, no matter how they don't want to do it, Kakashi will still tell them to do it.

Mission is not for them to pick and choose.

Of course, Kakashi won't let them waste their time and some training will be done during the mission.

Training is not something that can only be done in the training field.

The mission soon ended, and Kakashi was not in the mood to continue to take another mission, so he let Naruto and the others disperse, do what they want to do.

Kakashi walked along the road somewhat boringly, and suddenly hear a familiar voice.

"Hey, Kakashi, why aren't you with your lovely students?"

The owner of the sound is the Youthful Guy.

There were three kids behind him, Lee, Neji and Tenten.

"Ah, it's you Guy." Kakashi replied listlessly.

"Kakashi, why are you like that, your youthful vigor is gone. Do you want to have our youthful showdown?"

Guy said, showing his big white teeth, as he is looking forward to it.

Lee looked at Guy in admiration, while Neji and Tenten covered their faces as if they didn't want to know this person at all.

"Ah? No, Guy, let's do that another time."

Kakashi shrugged the offer off. Originally, training with Guy was a good thing, but later, it was becoming too frequent, and Kakashi couldn't afford it.

Now Kakashi can finally understand why the original Kakashi always tried to avoid Guy's challenge.

After all, not everyone has the same amount of energy as Guy.

"Kakashi, how can you deny our youthful showdown! Come on, let our fire of youth burn!"

Kakashi was a little helpless. When he saw Neji and the others, his eye shined and he suddenly said, "Guy, I've got a better idea. This time, my students take the Chunin Exam. Aren't your students also taking the Chunin Exam? When the time comes, which one of our students can go further, he is the winner, how about it?"

Hearing this, Guy was taken aback for a moment, and immediately agreed: "Kakashi, as expected of you my eternal rival, that's a great idea! Then it is decided!"

Neji was a little helpless, 'Why did your duel involve us?'

'But, against Kakashi-san's students?'

'Naruto and Sasuke?'

'They may be a good opponent.' Neji is also looking forward to it.
