Why Is Our Box Here?

'Swish! Swish!'

At the entrance of the Bounty Hunter's Guild, four dark figures darted out at an extremely fast speed. The three Ninjutsu of wind, water, and lightning were combined to form a huge water tornado with a diameter of more than 20 meters, which crushed towards Hinata six companions.

The waterspout flashed with terrifying lightning, turning the earth into dust wherever it passed.

"Cool!"

Hinata praised the move and was about to gather Chakra to form a shield wall to block it when she saw the space in front of her suddenly begin to rotate. The water tornado was absorbed into the rotating space in the blink of an eye.

Hinata couldn't help but glare at Kakashi.

It's just a blue buff, and you're getting all worked up about it!

Kakashi was radiant, his eyes gleaming with blind confidence. He moved rapidly at the black dot at the very center of the rotating space, quickly catching up with a clone of the Earth Grudge Fear and instantly shredding the clone's mask to shreds.

Click! Click! Click! Click!

Four soft sounds rang out in succession, and the four Earth Grudge Fear clones turned into black water and spread on the ground.

"Asuma, Hinata, that guy is running away!" Kakashi shouted.

Hinata and Asuma exchanged a quick glance, then Body Flicker Technique rushed into the Bounty Hunter's Guild, only to find that Kakuzu to be found.

Bounty Hunter's Guild, Asuma shook his head at Kakashi: "He got away!"

"However, we didn't come away empty-handed..." Hinata Kakuzu shining eyes. If she wasn't mistaken, there should be 30 million ryo inside, which was obtained by exchanging the heads of Jiriku.

Kakashi showed a hint of regret, then turned off the Mangekyo, but did not immediately pull down his Forehead Protector to cover his eyes.

Previously, due to a lack of chakra, Kakashi rarely dared to reveal his Sharingan. After all, the Three Tomoe Sharingan already possessed three abilities: perception, copying, and dynamic vision. As long as he kept his eyes open, the Sharingan's abilities would be constantly activated, continuously consuming Kakashi's Chakra.

By covering the Sharingan and preventing Sharingan from seeing, one can avoid activating the Sharingan's abilities and reduce Chakra consumption.

Now that he has Hinata's blue buff, Kakashi really wants to keep his Sharingan active 24/7.

Of course, Kakashi would never admit that he had a desire to show off; rather, he said that he used his Sharingan regularly to better familiarize himself with its abilities.

After all, suddenly activating the Sharingan and gaining the ability of dynamic vision will inevitably cause a temporary incoordination between the body and vision.

"Hinata?" Kakashi turned to look at Hinata.

With the Byakugan present, Kakuzu have been able to escape.

Hinata shrugged and said, "Kakuzu came from underground. That fire-attribute clone must have used some kind of Ninjutsu, but I didn't notice it."

Kakashi nodded, no longer dwelling on the matter, and turned to Asuma, saying, "Asuma, you lead the team to continue searching for Kakuzu's whereabouts. That guy has lost four hearts; he might strike again!"

"Hinata and I will go back and report to the Lord Hokage!"

Asuma said in a deep voice, "Alright! I'll notify the other teams immediately!"

The mission to rescue Asuma went very smoothly, and Hinata achieved her goal. Now all that was left was to patiently wait for things to develop.

Hidan was sucked into a dimension by Kakashi using Kamui. The only person in the world who could release Hidan is probably Obito.

Moreover, Obito doesn't have many people at his disposal right now, so he shouldn't give up Hidan's power.

If things go wrong, Obito's identity will be exposed, after all, Hidan is a big mouth.

However, there might be another possibility: if Obito didn't want to reveal his identity, he might have let Hidan starve to death in the Kamui Dimension.

The specifics will depend on Obito's next choice.

Hinata walked up to Kakashi and said with a smug look on her face, "Teacher Kakashi, how are you feeling? Having fun using the Sharingan, huh?"

Kakashi pulled down his Forehead Protector, rolled his dead fish eyes, and asked with a hint of helplessness, "Hinata, what exactly happened just now?"

"It's just a method similar to Shadow Clone, sending my Chakra into your body!" Hinata acted as if it were no big deal.

"Your Chakra..."

Kakashi suddenly stopped halfway through his sentence.

If they continued to ask, they might uncover Hinata's secrets. Although Kakashi and Hinata had a good relationship, he wouldn't easily pry into Hinata's secrets.

"Hinata, how much do you know about Space-time ninjutsu?" Kakashi suddenly asked.

"Space-time ninjutsu?"

Hinata said dejectedly, "I don't know how! But I've always wanted to learn."

"Teacher Kakashi, why are you suddenly asking about this?"

Kakashi hesitated for a moment, then explained, "Hinata, do you remember that Masked Man we met before? I always felt that my Dōjutsu was very similar to his Ninjutsu."

"Huh?"

Hinata looked at Kakashi with a hint of surprise. Why had Kakashi suddenly become so clever?

In the Original Story, Kakashi never guessed Obito's true identity until the final battle began.

Why are you starting to doubt Obito so early?

Hinata thought this might be because her protagonist aura had influenced Kakashi, increasing his intelligence, since Naruto's protagonist aura was supposed to decrease intelligence...

"Now that you mention it, it sounds very similar to me!" Hinata nodded vigorously and said, "Teacher Kakashi, why don't you try absorbing yourself and see where you'll be teleported?"

Hinata suddenly remembered that Kakashi's Sharingan could also enter the Kamui Dimension. In the Original Story, Madara Uchiha gouged out Kakashi's eyes in order to enter the Kamui Dimension and steal Obito's Rinnegan.

Kakashi: "..."

Kakashi believed that Hinata must be plotting to kill him and then pocket the 30 million taels of silver.

This is so Hinata!

Faced with enormous financial gains, Kakashi didn't believe Hinata could resist the temptation.

Hinata continued, "Teacher Kakashi, do you remember which eye that Masked Man showed? It should be his right eye, right?"

"Your Sharingan is in your left eye, but maybe the Masked Man's right eye is a pair with your Sharingan!"

Kakashi shuddered upon hearing this, then shuddered again, and shuddered once more...

"That's impossible!"

Kakashi retorted excitedly, "That Masked Man never used the Sharingan!"

"Kindness?"

Hinata recalled for a moment.

Indeed, during their previous battle with Obito did not reveal that he possessed the Sharingan, and Hinata and the others did not notice it at the time.

However, the seed of doubt has already been planted, and now it's up to Kakashi's imagination to fill in the gaps.

"That's true!"

Hinata shrugged casually, walked over, picked up the box left behind by Kakuzu, and muttered to herself, "How did our box end up here?"

"Teacher Kakashi, let's go back!"

Hinata stretched out a giant Chakra hand and grabbed Kakashi. Coincidentally, she pressed a finger against Kakashi's mouth, silencing Kakashi. Then, she flapped her wings and flew into the sky, heading towards Konoha.
