🕑 Added 2025-01-27 12:11:08 +0000 UTCWith a quick step, Kakashi leaped forward and thrust his sword into the ninja's throat. Blood splattered, and the hand seals were never completed.
"This boy is a... monster!" one of the Kirigakure ninjas muttered, the man's face looking very pale.
Another ninja tried to attack with a sword, but Kakashi parried it with his own sword. The sound of clashing metal filled the air before Kakashi's sword easily sliced the enemy's sword in two. Without hesitation, Kakashi cleaved the man's body, splitting him from the abdomen to the chest.
Blood flooded the battlefield.
Kakashi continued to move, his body like a shadow, difficult to catch with the eye. A ninja attempting to attack Kakashi from behind was quickly stopped by a sharp sword slash, splitting the man's abdomen.
Then a man appeared to tremble, frantically completing the hand seals. But Kakashi was too fast. In an instant, Kakashi was in front of the man, stabbing his sword directly into his neck. The ninja's body collapsed, and blood flowed heavily to the ground.
Sweat dripped down Kakashi's face, while his eyes remained sharply focused on the two remaining Kirigakure ninjas, both of whom were trapped in the Genjutsu of the Sharingan.
"Haah... haah... haah..." Kakashi panted.
Kakashi's breath was heavy, his body felt weakened after prolonged use of the Sharingan and Chidori.
However, thoughts of Rin forced Kakashi to stand again. Kakashi clenched his fist, pushing himself to keep moving despite his body protesting.
Kakashi then stepped closer to the two ninjas who now stood rigid, trapped in a deadly illusion.
"Tell me," Kakashi's voice was cold and sharp. "Where is your headquarters? Where will you seal Rin's body?"
The ninjas' eyes were vacant, but they answered in unison, their voices monotonous and emotionless:
"To the southeast. There is a large courtyard with a cave in the middle. That place is guarded by elite ninjas and medical ninjas skilled in Fuinjutsu."
Kakashi paused for a moment. The information was crucial, but Kakashi's eyes narrowed, showing deep anger.
"Good..." Kakashi said in a low voice.
Without hesitation, Kakashi swung his sword.
One slash, two bodies fell simultaneously. Blood flowed on the ground, creating a red puddle that reflected Kakashi's cold face.
Kakashi knew no mercy. Especially towards those who intended to harm the person who meant the most to Rin.
...
...
...
After ensuring that the two ninjas were no longer a threat, Kakashi stepped slowly, his mind now filled with worry.
"I don't know if Rin has really been kidnapped, but I can't take the risk. Because Rin won't be able to face them alone. I have to find Rin quickly."
Kakashi bit his thumb, fresh blood flowing on his skin. He quickly formed the hand seals.
"Kuchiyose no Jutsu!"
White smoke filled the air, and when it dissipated, eight ninja dogs stood before Kakashi.
"Yo, Kakashi. Why did you call us?" asked Pakkun, the leader of the Ninken, with a curious expression.
"Please help me track Rin, Pakkun!" Kakashi spoke in a firm tone, but there was clearly worry in his voice.
"Understood!" Pakkun replied quickly. Without wasting time, Pakkun and the other seven Ninken began to sniff the air, searching for Rin's trail.
...
...
...
Time felt like it was slowing down as Kakashi followed his Ninken tracking Rin's trail. The quiet forest was filled only with the sound of their footsteps and Kakashi's still heavy breathing.
After a while, Pakkun stopped at a seemingly ordinary place, an area of the forest surrounded by large trees. Kakashi looked at it seriously.
"Kakashi! Rin's scent stops at this branch," Pakkun reported while sniffing the large tree branch in front of him. "But there is also another scent mixed in here."
