He Has Bad Habits?

"Damn! Did you really have to go this big right from the start?"

Kakashi was utterly shocked. Seriously, bro? I only let one eye show. Was that really necessary?

Unfortunately, there was no point saying anything now. After dodging one of Susanoo's attacks, Kakashi's hands burst with an incredibly powerful force of lightning.

This was the Escapism Technique he was best at—Chidori!

Obito's face flushed when he saw this, and he gradually became dazed.

Within the Empire, this was a ninjutsu even more suited to the Uchiha Clan than Fire Release.

But he... had never learned it!

Now, seeing this world's Kakashi use it so effortlessly right in front of him dealt a serious blow to his pride.

Obito entered the Red Hot State.

"You bastard!"

Watching Kakashi dodge his attack and use Chidori to leave a huge wound on his Susanoo, Obito was furious.

Kakashi was also puzzled. Why had this guy suddenly gone berserk?

As the two of them struggled, Sasuke's eyes were filled with admiration.

If he had only felt disgust toward Obito at first, by now, he had already begun to feel a faint closeness toward him deep down. He even wanted to follow Obito.

"This kind of divine power... If I possessed it too, would that man still be able to stand against me?"

Just as Sasuke was thinking, a voice rang in the ears of all three of them.

"Hey! You three, what's your teacher's name? Is his surname Hatake?"

Kakashi watched Obito fight, yet become out of breath before he had even exerted himself, and a trace of doubt also arose in his heart.

Could it really just be that we look alike?

"Huh? Our teacher's name is Kakashi Hatake."

Sakura also saw that the two men meant no harm, so she explained.

"Hatake too?"

"His father's name is Sakumo Hatake, right?"

This question stumped Sakura.

"Um... We don't really know. I've never met Teacher Kakashi's father, and I haven't heard much about him either. I'm not sure about the details."

Kakashi was startled.

Although it was the father of someone from another world, he was still slightly surprised to learn that, in this world, even the ninja of the same village had never heard of him.

This world truly has countless strong people... A powerhouse like Father is renowned throughout the Empire, yet in this world... even the younger generation doesn't know him!

"Does your teacher have any bad habits?"

Kakashi asked again.

Seeing the confusion on their faces, he explained, "For example, does he often go to the Red-Light District and stay out all night, or does he have a house full of beautiful wives and concubines? If he has none of those, could he perhaps be fond of smoking?"

Sakura shook her head again.

"Teacher Kakashi never goes to those places. He's still single, and he just likes reading adult manga! As for smoking... I'm not sure!"

Sakura's face flushed as she said this.

What is he talking about? I don't understand! This Kakashi is just... so vulgar!

Kakashi lowered his head and began to ponder.

No, that doesn't make sense. This world is filled with powerful people, so why is this world's version of me so weak?

What's going on with the Sharingan?

Since his weakness wasn't caused by excessive indulgence, then it must be congenital.

If his innate Chakra couldn't compare to those cheat-level geniuses, why didn't he use the ancestral swordsmanship?

Could it be that this world's father didn't teach him, so he failed to inherit it?

And besides, for someone who isn't an Uchiha, wouldn't keeping the Sharingan activated consume a huge amount of Chakra?

Could the eye's ocular technique really be so special that it was worth sacrificing all those hidden conditions?

Otherwise, no matter how I calculate it, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages!

Nearby, Naruto listened to their conversation with a puzzled expression.

Could Chakra really be used up?

Wasn't it inexhaustible?

"Why did Teacher Kakashi run out of Chakra so quickly? I didn't even see him use that many ninjutsu!"

Naruto's wide eyes revealed a clear, innocent foolishness.

Sasuke couldn't hold back and cursed aloud. "Idiot! Naturally, it's because he used something that doesn't belong to him."

Fortunately, Naruto wasn't too stupid and quickly understood.

"You mean that Sharingan? Then why does Teacher Kakashi still use it?"

Sasuke let out a disdainful snort, and his expression had already changed slightly. "Naturally, it's because he coveted the power of my Uchiha Clan!"

Kakashi was crying out in misery on the other side. What is going on today? Why did I suddenly run into such a monster?

There's still another one who hasn't made a move. What am I supposed to do?

The mission assigned by the Hokage was to protect Naruto and Sasuke at all costs.

One was connected to the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, while the other was connected to Itachi Uchiha.

The loss of either one would bring a devastating blow to the Hidden Leaf Village.

"Looks like I have no choice but to use that move!"

Kakashi decided to use the skill that had always proved successful.

Kamui!

As Obito fought with Susanoo, he suddenly felt an enormous suction force pulling at his body.

He was startled.

Although that Kakashi's eyes were similar to his own, the Uchiha Clan within the Empire had plenty of Mangekyo Sharingan that resembled one another.

But it was nearly impossible for their abilities to be identical as well.

That was because the Sharingan reflected the heart. Each person's eyes would basically grant them an ocular technique suited to whatever they desired, allowing them to obtain the power needed to achieve what they wanted.

In an instant, Obito also activated Kamui. He turned himself intangible first, dodging Kakashi's deadly Kamui.

Using the technique once, combined with the Chakra consumed during the battle just now, left Kakashi panting heavily.

Obito lost all interest in playing around. Weak. Far too weak.

Was this person really the Kakashi from another world?

"Your eye... This ocular technique... Is it this world's version of me?"

Obito asked.

Kakashi remained silent.

"Answer me!"

Obito flew into a rage.

"If you're willing to let my students go, I'll tell you everything honestly!"

Even now, Kakashi's mind was still focused on the mission.

"Do you think you have a choice?"

"I already told you. You have the Sharingan but can't awaken Susanoo, and your Chakra drains away rapidly until you're gasping for breath before you've even used it. How could this eye possibly be yours?"

Obito was somewhat irritated.

Many Uchiha within the Empire were only children. One of his most important tasks was to search for Uchiha Clan members from parallel worlds.

Many of them didn't possess the innate conditions that Sasuke and Itachi had, so awakening the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan had become a major problem.

He was already frustrated upon learning that his clan had been wiped out. Now that he had obtained a clue about this world's version of himself, he naturally didn't want to waste any more time.

Kamui!

Obito activated Kamui, and Kakashi was instantly sucked into the Kamui Dimension.

Just as the three children and Tazuna were still wondering where Kakashi had gone, the two men reappeared.

Obito held an eyeball in his hand, while his left eye was noticeably deeper than before.

This world's version of him wasn't like the Obito of the Original World, who possessed Hashirama Cells and could use Kamui freely.

However, at this moment, he had confirmed without a doubt that the eye belonging to this world's Kakashi was his own!

Feeling the power unique to the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan in his eye, along with the ocular power that seemed about to overflow, Obito laughed excitedly.

Kamui!

A force that twisted space appeared, and an entire mountain peak vanished without a trace.

Yet he had consumed only a small amount of Chakra. The risk of his eye going blind was gone forever.

Obito laughed loudly. His experiment had been correct. In the Kamui Dimension, he had controlled this world's Kakashi immediately. Unfortunately, he wasn't proficient in genjutsu and could only bewitch a few Rogue Ninjas.

Kakashi had undergone Anbu training, so he naturally kept his mouth shut and said nothing.

But none of that mattered. After gouging out Kakashi's eye, he had experimentally inserted it into his own eye.

As everyone knew, members of the Uchiha Clan could use eyes immediately after inserting them.

Sure enough, there had been no rejection whatsoever. Moreover, the power within that eye was even stronger by a fraction. This proved that the eye truly belonged to this world's version of himself!

Having obtained something beyond his expectations, Obito no longer had any interest in continuing to play with Kakashi.

This world's Kakashi was far too weak. Even if he continued fighting, victory would be meaningless.

His gaze fell on Kakashi, and he slowly spoke. "Hey, Kakashi! Come show this world's version of you what you can do! Let him know that swordsmanship is the true inheritance of the Hatake Clan! Don't let him use Lightning Release anymore!"
