Fifty-Fifty Wasn't Someone to Be Pushed Around

Hiruzen Sarutobi directly raised his hand to stop the others from asking questions.

After all, Hagoromo had already brought it up, so let's deal with this first.

Kakashi, on the other hand, had a somber expression and covered his left Sharingan.

While this eye granted him immense power, it also placed a heavy burden on his body.

It was a gift from a close friend, and no matter how heavy the burden, he never regretted it.

If you lack Chakra, change your fighting style and analyze your opponent's information to achieve victory.

I shook my head, trying to stop thinking about these things.

Kakashi then pondered Hagoromo's question, and after a while looked up at Hagoromo and said:

"When it was first transplanted, only less than 10% was needed, but..."

"I fell into a coma after that mission, and when I woke up, my eyes were consuming about 40% of their Chakra."

"It has been slowly rising over the years."

After Kakashi finished speaking vaguely, he fell silent and put his blindfold back on.

The people in the office looked at each other in silence, all of them knowing what the task entailed.

Hagoromo nodded. Kakashi truly owes Sharingan success and failure both to the Sharingan.

Although Kakashi earned the infamous title of 'Copy Ninja' because of his Sharingan.

However, in Hagoromo's opinion, this title was actually not that impressive.

After all, even if Kakashi knew a thousand Ninjutsu, it would be useless without enough Chakra to use them.

Conversely, without this Sharingan, Kakashi would have had his own path forward.

Would a genius who invented Chidori at the age of twelve really lack a Sharingan?

The answer is obvious: Kakashi has been known for his perpetually low Chakra for so many years.

This precisely demonstrates that Kakashi's talent is not weak; Obito's Sharingan was merely a constraint for Kakashi.

"Kakashi, let me think about whether there's a way to help you limit this."

Hagoromo shook her head, advising Kakashi to give up the eye, saying it was almost impossible.

Instead, we might as well try to find out if we can change the situation using Sealing Jutsu.

Kakashi regained his lazy state; this wasn't something that was easy.

Seeing this, Hagoromo didn't say anything more. Whether or not it could be produced later was another matter. Right now, the most important thing was to get Kakashi out of the way.

Thinking of this, Hagoromo gave Hiruzen Sarutobi look.

Having received Hagoromo's hint, Hiruzen Sarutobi and said to Kakashi, "Kakashi, thank you for your help. Go back and rest now."

Kakashi nodded, though he was very curious about why these experiments were being conducted.

However, he was really tired, so he greeted everyone and left the office.

"Master, Kakashi's Sharingan is similar to Fugaku's, based on my observations..."

"It's definitely Mangekyo!"

"But... Kakashi probably has no idea at all, or rather, he's rarely used his Sharingan in battles because he's worried about Chakra."

Hagoromo spoke to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Fugaku frowned upon hearing this, though it meant the Uchiha no longer needed to worry about being questioned.

However, don't forget that Obito was buried as a hero of Konoha, and his cenotaph is located on the other side of the Memorial Stone.

Now that Kakashi's Sharingan is the Mangekyo, it means that Obito is truly alive.

It could also be the culprit behind the deaths of the Fourth Hokage and his wife, and the rampage of the Nine-Tails.

And, there was the matter of having previously cooperated with Danzo.

Each and every one of these acts makes it no exaggeration to call them sinners of Konoha.

"The Hiruzen Generation Sir..."

"No need for that, Fugaku. Everything still needs to be verified." Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand, indicating that Fugaku didn't need to do that.

However, his face had now darkened.

The Fourth's Death was an absolute devastation for Konoha, especially considering the loss of Kushina.

"Master, if we really have to take this action, my suggestion is to bring Kakashi along."

Hagoromo then spoke up from the side.

"Hmm? Why?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was somewhat confused, after all, Kakashi's eyes were also Mangekyo, and the power of one eye versus two eyes was definitely different.

"During my recent exploration, Kakashi's Mangekyo gave me the feeling that it carried an aura of space and time," Hagoromo said calmly.

"Space-Time..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was taken aback by these words, then recalled the time when Shisui and the others had stopped the masked man.

"What a terrifying talent."

Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but sigh. Space-time talent—even in the entire Shinobi World, that was enough to make him stand out from the crowd.

Fugaku also had a complicated expression; who would have thought he was just a nobody within the clan?

Someone who has always been labeled Dead Last can possess such talent.

"I understand. You mean, even if someone tries to escape, Kakashi can still track them down using his eyes."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and looked at Hagoromo to confirm.

"That's right." Hagoromo smiled; this was indeed his thought.

"But what if Kakashi..." Hiruzen Sarutobi hesitated, after all, Kakashi was once Kakashi's best friend.

His prolonged period of depression is due to this person.

"Master, you must believe in Kakashi. He is also Konoha Ninja with the Will of Fire."

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't think Hagoromo Sarutobi was a problem at all; Kakashi might feel a little guilty towards Obito.

However, they are not someone who can be easily manipulated. Do you really think "Fifty-Fifty" is a joke?

"It's this old man's thinking that's limiting."

Hearing Hagoromo's words, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

Yes, he has witnessed Kakashi's growth over the years.

There's no need to worry too much; it's better to let Kakashi face it himself and get out of this predicament.

"Alright, old man, I'll be going now if there's nothing else."

Tsunade, got up, and left; she had no desire to get involved in these matters.

Jiraiya could speak, Hagoromo addressed Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Master, I need to find my senior sister first."

After saying that, he caught up with Tsunade had already left the office.

"Senior sister, wait!"

"Huh? What's up, brat?" Tsunade turned her head and looked at Hagoromo.

"I need your help with Sharingan Kakashi's Sharingan," Hagoromo stated his purpose directly.

"Me?" Tsunade pointed to herself. "My Sealing Jutsu are probably not even as good as yours. There's no use coming to me."

Tsunade knew she couldn't replicate the Yin Curse Talisman that Hagoromo had just used in the office.

"It's different. I need your medical expertise, Senior Sister, to complement my ideas," Hagoromo said, waving her hand.
