Naruto: The Strongest Kakashi

The timing of the Anbu's appearance is a bit strange. After all, they come just after Orochimaru left the place.

If they come when Orochimaru is still there, they will most likely attack Orochimaru.

Although almost everyone knows about Sannin, not everyone has seen their face.

They may only ever seen Sannin's face from a photo, and in that kind of dim environment, they won't be able to see Orochimaru's face.

But even if they know about Orochimaru, they will not be afraid of Orochimaru's reputation.

After all, Orochimaru is the one who is coming to their village.

The first thing to rule out is that the Anbu who come first is not the one who attacks Kaguya clan. Only the dozens of shinobi that came afterwards should be the the one who eliminated the Kaguya clan and come after hearing the battle.

So where did the first Anbu come from?

That position is far from Kirigakure and there will not be Anbu who is patrolling there.

Besides, it is impossible for patrolling Anbu to send five Jōnin and five Chunin just for that.

Jōnin is an important power in a village. It is impossible to send them out to patrol like that.

The patrolling shinobi is mostly shinobi who has a special Ninjutsu suitable for this kind of work.

Then is the Anbu coming there is trying to chase and kill someone?

It's also impossible, after all it is strange that they don't send even stronger line up if they need to kill someone strong.

And the Anbu lineup didn't have any elite Jonin in their team. Only ordinary Jonin and Chunin.

Therefore, this lineup is obviously prepared for Kakashi.

Kakashi opened his eyes and he muttering to himself: "Obito, is that you?"

With White Zetsu's sensor Ability, finding Kakashi is not a difficult thing, and if White Zetsu really finds him, there is a good chance that he will tell Obito about Kakashi.

What will Obito do after hearing that?

He doesn't know why Kakashi came to Kirigakure. What does he think?

For mission? Or is it for Rin?

This may be a question in Obito's mind.

But at this time Obito right now is still hiding in the dark.

Maybe those people are just the ones that Obito sent up to test Kakashi's strenght.

Kakashi secretly thought with a bitter smile: "Obito, to face to you in the dark, what should I need to do?"

Shaking his head, Kakashi still did not come up with anything.

His strength is still insufficient, he doesn't have the qualification to talk with Obito at the moment, and he can only wait when he will be able to talk to him.

Thinking of this, Kakashi once again entered the dreamland, the damage to his body and Spirit made Kakashi very tired, and he can only sleep to recover as soon as possible.

Fortunately, Yugao's medical Ninjutsu is not bad. Kakashi's wound has basically healed. The reason why he can't get up at this time is more of the side effects of using Sharingan and the damage from the Cursed Seal.

After a few days of resting, he will probably be healed completely.

The boat swayed on the sea and it took a few days before Kakashi's group returned to the Land of Fire.

"Kakashi-Senpai, how is your condition?"

Tenzo saw Kakashi getting out of bed and asked with concern.

"Ah, I'm almost healed, have we reached the Land of Fire?"

"Yeah, we have finally arrived."

"Okay, then it's time to go back and hand over the mission report."

"Yes, Senpai."

Konoha Village, Land of Fire, Hokage Office.

"Oh? It turned out that the situation at Kirigakure right now is that bad. It is really sad."

After listening to the information reported by Kakashi, Sandaime can only sighed.

"Yes, Sandaime-sama. There is one more thing I need to report to you."

"What's up?"

"I met Orochimaru in the mission."

"What? Orochimaru?"

Sandaime's complexion changed, since Orochimaru defected, this once his favorite Disciple became his greatest regret.

According to their intelligence, Orochimaru should be in the Land of Rice Fields, ​​how can he is at Land of Water?

"Yes, it is Orochimaru. I was injured in the middle of miission, then I met Orochimaru, and he give me a Cursed Seal on my body."

Sandaime was surprised once again. He walked over to Kakashi and looked at his neck. Sure enough, there were three black Magatamas exactly the same as the one Anko got. The difference was that there was a black circle mark on the outside of the Magatamas.

Sandaime who is known as the Professor, naturally knows what this circle mark is.

This is Evil Sealing Method, but it can only temporarily suppress the Cursed Seal, and it won't be able to remove the Cursed Seal.

"Sandaime-sama, do you know of any way to remove this Cursed Seal?"

Sandaime shook his head and said, "No, this kind of Cursed Seal blends with Senjutsu's Strength, and I don't know anything about Senjutsu so I can't remove it."

Kakashi hearing this can't help but feeling a bit disappointed. Although he expects about Sandaime's answer, he still feel somewhat loss when Sandaime said it himself.

Seeing Kakashi's expression, Sandaime is also helpless. He didn't expect his favorite juniors to be marked by Orochimaru.

"Kakashi, you don't have to be discouraged, although I don't know how to get rid of the Cursed Seal, but Jiraiya may have a way. After all, he also has some research on Senjutsu."

"I also thought about this, but Jiraiya-sama's whereabouts is uncertain, I am afraid…"

Sandaime showed a smile on his faces and said, "It's okay, Jiraiya send me a letter before and told me that he will come back later. I will tell him about this when he gets back here."

Kakashi smiled and said, "That's great."

"Well, you shouldn't do any mission for the time being, so that you don't miss the time when Jiraiya came back."

"I understand, Sandaime-sama!"

After Kakashi left, Sandaime sighed but he then muttered something with a smile.

"I didn't expect Kakashi to have grown to this point."

Kakashi didn't tell Sandaime about the battle at Kirigakure, but Sandaime can see it from the Mission Scroll.

The Mission Scroll that was handed over this time was not written by Kakashi, but by Shisui.

After all, Kakashi was seriously injured before, so he didn't have any strength to write.

So Shisui, who performed the mission with Kakashi, did the job.

Kakashi didn't mind, after all, it is okay even if he wasn't the one who wrote it.

Shisui wrote the situation at that time in Mission Scroll, and of course he didn't write about Orochimaru.

After all, it is better for Kakashi to explain this thing to Sandaime himself.

That's the case outside of mission and it doesn't need to be written in Mission Scroll.

"Terifying Lightning Release, Powerful Sword technique, instant movement, Sakumo, your son is becoming more and more like you."

Looking at the window, the face of Sandaime showed a look of nostalgia.

Remembering about the past Konoha that had formidable strength. Sannin, Yellow Flash, Konoha White Fang, plus Sandaime himself, there was six Kage level Expert in the village!

Back then, Konoha alone didn't afraid of the other four Great Shinobi Village.

But now, there is only Sandaime who is more than sixty years left. He felt really tired.

But he did not dare to fall, behind him is thousands of villagers.

"Haahh, if only Tsunade and Jiraiya can come back to the village to help me, I don't have to work like this."

Sandaime sighed as he continued to deal with the mountains of paperworks.
