Naruto: The Strongest Kakashi

Chapter 273 Shukaku

The night of the full moon, at the top of the mountain.

Sasuke has fallen asleep in a tent.

After a day of training, and with his body that was not fully recovered yet, Sasuke has long been exhausted.

Although there is a training's cheating device called Sharingan, it is not that easy to learn as Kakashi's first original A-rank Ninjutsu.

It is estimated that one month should be just enough for Sasuke to fully grasp it.

On the other side, Naruto also started his Kuchiyose no Jutsu's training under Jiraiya's guidance.

Kakashi sat on a boulder, looking up at the stars.

"Today's moon is so round…"

Kakashi sighed with emotion, leaving a shadow clone to watch after Sasuke, and then left the mountain.

Somewhere in Konoha.

Gekkō Hayate secretly followed behind Yakushi Kabuto, trying to find something.

"Strange, this person's skill is not like a Genin at all. It seems that Hokage-sama is right. There really is a problem with this guy."

Hayate has a bad feeling in his heart, but out of confidence in his own strength, he still follows up after Kabuto.

Hayate has the Kekkei Genkai of the Gekkō Clan, called Sakkaku, which can hide his body which is the most suitable technique to follow after other people without the other party knowing.

This is also the reason why Sandaime sent Hayate to follow Kabuto.

He didn't know why, but at this moment, the words that Kakashi had said to him before suddenly appeared in Hayate's mind.

'During the Chunin Exam, try to not walk around during the night.'

After throwing away Kakashi's strange words from his mind, Hayate continued to follow Kabuto.

He doesn't know how many times he has performed this kind of mission, so he is naturally very familiar with it.

Kabuto's figure is constantly moving and eventually stops at a certain location.

And standing at that location, is the person who led the team from Sunagakure, Baki!

Hayate was startled, and secretly thought: "Is this Kabuto one of the Sunagakure's undercover agent?"

At this moment, Kabuto and Baki had already started talking.

"Kabuto, how are the preparations of Orochimaru over there? I hope your sides are ready."

Kabuto pushed his glasses for a bit and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Orochimaru-sama will not let Kazekage-sama down. Everything is fine. It's ready."

"That's good, I look forward to Konoha Crush plan a month later."

"Yeah."

Hearing this, Hayate was startled, and even his breath was exposed for an instant.

Both Kabuto and Baki frowned. After careful sensing, they seemed to have found nothing. 'Could it be an illusion?'

On the other side, Hayate's mouth was covered by a hand as he was struggling.

Immediately something appeared in front of him, and both of them disappeared.

Hayate only felt that the scene in front of him disappeared quickly, and soon stopped again.

"Hayate, I already said that you shouldn't walk around during the night."

Hearing a familiar voice, Hayate relaxed his vigilance.

"Kakashi-senpai? Why are you here?"

"Of course it is to save you. If you have been discovered just now, I am afraid you won't be able to live. The opponent are two Elite Jōnin-level Shinobi, with your strength, you probably will be killed in seconds." Kakashi said with a smile.

Hayate was stunned. He also knew that his presence had just leaked, and he would be found by the two of them.

If Kakashi hadn't taken him away in an instant, he may be already killed by the two enemies.

"Senpai, they are discussing things that are not good for Konoha and they seem to have a plan." Hayate immediately reported the information he had got.

"Yeah, I know. Just tell Sandaime-sama about what you see. Sandaime-sama and I already know about this."

"So it's like that. Okay Kakashi-senpai, but why didn't you just take them both directly?" asked Hayate.

"It is not time yet. Sunagakure hasn't revealed their hands, so we can't just caught their Shinobi like that. We should just make some preparations for their plan to see how it goes."

"So senpai has already planned something." Hayate was relieved.

"Okay, Hayate, go and report this to Sandaime-sama."

"Yes! Kakashi-senpai."

Hayate complied and left.

Kakashi looked into the distance, where Kabuto and Baki were still discussing something, and it didn't take long before they dispersed.

On the other side, Gaara is on the roof, holding his head in pain. He is recalling everything that happened yesterday.

"Why, why can they do that for others! Why is it only me that nobody care about! Damn! They are all damned!"

"Argh!"

With a roar, the murderous intent in Gaara's eyes seemed to be solidified.

That is not the human eyes at all, but beast!

Kakashi who was in the distance saw this scene and moved his feet and landed in front of Gaara.

"It's you!" Gaara growled.

"Yeah, it's me. It looks like you are in pain." Kakashi whispered.

"Hmph! Don't worry about it! No more bullsh*t! I'll kill you!"

"You're really a headache, a disobedient person, then, I'll talk to the little pet in your body."

Gaara had no time to say anything, as he already saw Kakashi open his Konoha forehead protector to reveal the scarlet Sharingan.

In the darkness, two golden eyes were constantly flickering, and the owner of these eyes was slightly surprised to see the person in front of him.

"Someone dare to come here."

Kakashi put his hands in his pockets, smiling at the giant in front of him.

"Yo, Shukaku?"

"Oh? You know my name, kid, who are you?"

'Kid?' No one has called Kakashi like that for a long time.

But it's not strange. After all, all of the Bijuu have a long life, so everyone in this world is a kid in their eyes.

"Hatake Kakashi."

"Hatake? An outsider with a Sharingan? Interesting."

No one has been able to talk to Shukaku for a long time.

This is the first time Shukaku has spoken since the death of his last Jinchūriki.

He has already forgotten how long it has been, and he only knows that it was a long, long time.

When he saw Kakashi, the first thought was not to destroy him, but to say a few words.

Whether it is human or beast, loneliness is always an indelible fear.

Seeing Shukaku's huge and faintly lonely figure, Kakashi felt a little sad.

They originally are free creatures, but they were forcibly caught and shackled by the humans.

Unfortunately, this World is like this.

Only the strong have the right to speak.

Seeing Kakashi not speaking, Shukaku asked: "What are you doing here?"

"It's just on a whim. After all, I have seen Kurama before. This time, I have the opportunity to see Shukaku so I naturally can't miss it."

Hearing this, Shukaku's pupils shrank: "How do you know the name of Kurama!"

Kakashi smiled but didn't answer.

Kakashi looked very mysterious in Shukaku's eyes at this moment.

'Who is he?'

This is the question that surrounds Shukaku's mind at this moment.

"Shukaku, maybe you can talk to this child. Kurama gets along well with another kid, and this kid won't let you down."

"Huh! Ridiculous, you selfish human beings, coveting the power of us, Bijuu, sealing us, and being able to say such grandiose words, it is really ridiculous!"

"One day, you will believe what I said. Before that, you can think about it first. Then, goodbye."

Kakashi finished speaking, and his figure slowly faded.

Shukaku didn't stop him, he just looked at Kakashi with a thoughtful look.

"Gaara? Can you be the same as the old monk Bunpuku?"

The space fell into darkness once again.

Outside the space, Gaara looked quiet, as if he was asleep.

'How long have I not slept?'

Gaara doesn't know it himself, it seems it's been a long, long time.

Looking at Gaara, who looked serene in front of him, Kakashi suddenly thought he was a little cute.

"He's really an unfortunate person."

Kakashi sighed lightly, picked Gaara up, and sent him back to his temporary residence.

The moon tonight is round, but there is no wind at all.

Kakashi finished everything and returned to the mountain.

Sasuke is still asleep.

After dispelling his shadow clone, Kakashi also returned to his tent.

Somewhere in Konoha.

"Orochimaru-sama, when I was discussing the plan with Baki tonight, it seemed that someone had discovered it, but I couldn't find who it was."

Wearing a kimono, Orochimaru showed a sly smile: "Hehe, it doesn't matter, Sandaime and Kakashi have already known that we are here, so no matter who it is, we still would continue with the plan."

"Orochimaru-sama, will this affect our plans?" Kabuto asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, all of this is just a game, whether it is a success or a failure, it doesn't matter. I came here just because I want to do it. It's good if I succeed, but it doesn't matter if I don't succeed."

"This…"

"Kabuto, you can't see through it. Your comprehension is still too small."

Orochimaru looked at the moon in the sky, and his eyes are calm and composed.
