Kakashi and Rin Nohara

"It's time to go find Kakashi and Rin Nohara, Obito. I hope I can stop your fall from grace." Shiyu also vanished from the spot immediately.

Shiyu expanded her search scope infinitely, ensuring that she didn't miss any detail.

Because Kirigakure launched a surprise attack on Konoha, Kirigakure stretched their battle lines extremely thin to prevent Konoha from providing reinforcements. Kirigakure had originally dispatched a large number of Kirigakure elites, intending to take advantage of Konoha's battles with other major powers to gain some benefits.

However, due to Shiyu's appearance, not only were all Kirigakure's Seven Ninja Swordsmen wiped out, but even the ruling Third Mizukage was killed, and the Six-Tails Jinchuriki died. The Six-Tails was essentially hidden by Shiyu Shikkotsu Forest, greatly weakening the Kirigakure's strength.

Kirigakure was stronger than Konoha, while Konoha was using the forest as cover to wage guerrilla warfare against Kirigakure. Konoha Forest was vast, and finding Kakashi there was like finding a needle in a haystack.

"Even with his sensory abilities and Byakugan, it's still difficult to find Kakashi. This time, we can only rely on luck." Shiyu knew that Rin Nohara had been taken to Kirigakure, where the Three-Tails had been transplanted into her, and then Kirigakure deliberately let Rin escape, intending to use the Three-Tails within her to destroy Konoha.

Even if Konoha's defenses were weak, the Third Hokage was still there to protect it. The Third Hokage was in his prime, and suppressing the Three-Tails would be no problem for him. Konoha also had countless sealing scrolls. If the Three-Tails were released in Konoha, the final result would probably be that the Three-Tails would be sealed, and Konoha would have to pay a certain price.

The loss of a Tailed Beast by Kirigakure is an immeasurable loss.

In short, all of this was 100% controlled by Madara Uchiha, with the sole purpose of making Rin Nohara and Kakashi fight each other, ultimately provoking Obito and causing him to fall into boundless darkness, and then using Obito to achieve his own goals.

"If Rin entered Kirigakure, then to get to Konoha, she should take the fastest route, which should be this area." Shiyu analyzed for a moment, then immediately used Body Flicker Technique to rush towards the guessed location.

Time passed quickly. Shiyu used his sensory abilities to discern the chakra of those around him, but apart from a few scattered Konoha and Kirigakure Ninja, he didn't gain anything substantial.

After a while, Shiyu spotted a group of Kirigakure Ninja marching in one direction, but their speed slowed down considerably, as if they were chasing someone.

"Huh!? Found it!" Shiyu used his Byakugan to spot Kakashi in the distance. Kakashi was trying to run away, but it was more like he was searching for something than running away.

"We've caught up! It seems Kakashi hasn't found Rin yet, so it looks like Rin isn't dead." Shiyu nodded and quietly followed behind Kakashi.

The group of Kirigakure were clearly holding back, deliberately letting Kakashi find Rin. Rin was under Genjutsu, and after Kakashi broke the Genjutsu, he took Rin with him and ran away.

"Kakashi! I have a feeling something's not right. I have a feeling something bad is about to happen."

"Let's get out of here first!" Kakashi grabbed Rin and ran outside.

The Kirigakure ninjas chased after Kakashi, but each time they caught up, they slowed down or engaged in brief skirmishes before being immediately driven back. In short, they were only trying to drive the two away and had no intention of killing them.

"Something's not right!" Kakashi realized the problem as well.

"I understand! Kakashi! I can't go back to Konoha with you!" Rin gave up on running away and said, "Something terrible has been implanted in my body. If I go back to Konoha, it might cause a disaster!"

"Kakashi! You must kill me!"

"Rin! What are you saying! I won't kill you! If you don't leave now, you might not have another chance." Kakashi refused Rin's request.

Lin shook her head, also unsure of what to do.

Seeing that the two had stopped running, the Kirigakure ninjas immediately caught up with them again.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

"Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"

The Kirigakure Ninja desperately unleashed their Ninjutsu, while Kakashi prepared his Lightning Blade, ready to swiftly eliminate their opponents.

Shiyu knew his chance had come, and with a "whoosh," he flew right in front of the two of them using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

"Earth Release: Earth Wall!" An earthen wall rose up, completely blocking the Kirigakure Water Release attack. Shiyu immediately Hand Seals again and shouted, "Earth Release: Earth Prison Wall!"

The Earth Wall that had just formed immediately collapsed towards the group of Kirigakure, enveloping them within Earth Wall.

"You are! Teacher Shiyu!" Rin and Kakashi's eyes shone with golden light. They never expected that Shiyu, the hero of Konoha, would come here.

"It seems Konoha hasn't publicized my defection. Of course, I wouldn't have either," Shiyu said. "Rin, don't worry, the monster inside you is just the Three-Tails. I'll help you deal with it."

"Kakashi, do me a favor!" Shiyu whispered her idea to Kakashi.

Kakashi nodded and said, "I understand! Teacher Shiyu! Please, you must save Rin!"

Shiyu then Hand Seals and said, "Water Release: Mist Technique!"

The surroundings instantly became a vast expanse of white fog.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu! Heal!" Kakashi transformed into Rin Nohara and Shiyu, essentially two Shadow Clones, and together with Kakashi, ran in another direction.

Meanwhile, Kirigakure broke through the earthen prison wall of Shiyu and saw Kakashi and the other two escaping, so they immediately gave chase.

In the thick fog, Shiyu gently touched Rin Nohara.

"Bass

The power of the Three-Tails bloodline within Rin Nohara was immediately absorbed by Shiyu easily allowed the Isobu to enter the depths of his mind.

"Ah!!" Shiyu could hear the Three-Tails' painful howl.

Shiyu stepped forward and saw that the Three-Tails' eyes were in the form of Sharingan. It was clear that even the Three-Tails in his mind was still under the control of the Sharingan.

"What's going on? Isn't Demonic Statue of the Outer Path? And Obito hasn't turned evil yet, so why is the Three-Tails being controlled by the Sharingan?" Shiyu was a little confused.

However, Shiyu knew that Madara was able to control the Third Mizukage without personally appearing, so he must have some methods that Shigure was unaware of.

For example, it's not impossible that he could give his eyes to Zetsu first, allowing Zetsu to control the Tailed Beast, and then return them later.

"Isobu! Isobu! Look at me!" Shiyu shouted as he slowly approached Isobu.

However, instead of looking at Shiyu, the Three-Tails Shiyu out at him with its One-Tails.

Shiyu Isobu's tail, then with a shout, flung the Three-Tails creature's enormous body away.

Although it resided deep within Shiyu's heart, Isobu did not weaken. On the contrary, Isobu was controlled by the Sharingan and thus became extremely manic.

By allowing Isobu into the depths of his heart, Shiyu essentially took on the backlash from the Three-Tails for Rin Nohara.

"The battles really keep coming one after another."
