Outside the fortress reduced to rubble, Rock Ninja his explosive hairstyle, looked at the completely collapsed ruins with a hint of disappointment.
"Tch, did the mission fail?"
He was actually hoping that those Konoha brats, especially that Uchiha brat who had Sharingan, would come out so he could complete two missions at once!
That's how it ended!
This truly disappointed him!
"Hiss!"
Touching the wound on his chest, Rock Ninja with the afro gasped.
"The bone is broken!"
"Damn brat, he hit hard!"
He took off his vest and took out a first-aid kit to give himself some basic emergency treatment.
Simple medication application, simple bandage dressing...
There are no professional medical-nin here, so this is all he can do.
If there were medical-nin present, even if the wound on his chest had reached the bone, it wouldn't have caused him such great distress.
At this point, doubt and anger rose in the heart of the afro-haired Rock Ninja.
"Why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet?"
"It must be those damned higher-ups causing trouble!"
Thinking of some possibilities, coupled with his pent-up resentment, he cursed angrily.
In his eyes, the Rock Ninja in recent years has been rotten to the core!
First, under the guise of "supporting the Mist Ninja," they dispatched thousands of elite ninjas to the Mist Ninja to ambush and kill Uchiha Makoto.
And the result?
Three ninja villages, more than 8,000 ninjas, almost all of them died!
Then, when supporting the Sand Ninja, due to the high-ups siphoning off a large amount of funds, a large number of defective ninja tools were distributed!
The entire Iwagakure was even called the poorest Sand Ninja Village, and its willingness to share ninja tools made it a laughing stock throughout the Shinobi World!
Later, the Sand Ninja became allies of Konoha, and the Sand Ninja and Konoha joined forces to fight against the Rock Ninja!
"Now, even though he's practically our Rock Ninja enemy in Uchiha Makoto, that brat from the Uchiha Clan who has a close relationship with Uchiha Makoto, he actually asked us not to harm him during the mission, even after his information was betrayed!"
"What kind of ninja is Ōnoki, that coward!"
The ninja with the afro was panting heavily as he tilted his head back and gulped down a large mouthful of water.
He sat in front of the fortress ruins, trying to rest and recover his strength.
Bang!
A tremendous sound rang out, and the ruins of the fortress suddenly exploded, sending up a large cloud of smoke.
Rock Ninja, even his drinking motion stiffened, and he nervously looked up.
Amidst the ruins, Kakashi stood wielding lightning, his Sharingan, staring at him with a sinister expression!
A great war is about to break out!
"Damn Konoha brats!"
"You're still alive!"
Seeing the figure that should have died reappear, Rock Ninja the afro was sweating profusely and said in disbelief.
He wanted to say something more, but Kakashi had already moved!
Stimulated by the Lightning Release Chakra, his speed increased dramatically, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of the Iwa Rock Ninja with the afro!
Kakashi's speed Rock Ninja with the afro. He hurriedly raised his hand, trying to use his arm blade to block Kakashi's attack.
Bang!
A cluster of bright sparks lit up.
The two clashed their swords. Kakashi gripped "White Fang" in reverse with his left hand, barely managing to block the attack before thrusting his right hand forward with all his might!
If Rock Ninja Lightning Cutter, then he wins!
"Don't even think about it, kid!"
With his explosive hair, Rock Ninja pushed off with his heels, pulling his body backward.
But Kakashi had anticipated this!
With a twist of his left wrist, which held "White Fang" in reverse, "White Fang" appeared behind the waist of the spiky-haired Rock Ninja!
If the Rock Ninja retreats any further, he will be cut in half at the waist!
He has surrounded the Rock Ninja!
"Are you kidding me!"
With his eyes blazing with fury, the explosive-haired Rock Ninja used his right arm blade to smash through "White Fang," successfully breaking free from Kakashi's encirclement!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
With his explosive hairstyle, Rock Ninja shaken, but his gaze toward Kakashi grew even more ruthless.
He's determined to kill that brat!
'This brat has Lightning Release Chakra stimulating him, amplifying his speed. I can't escape!'
'The only way to live is to kill him!'
Their eyes met, and after a brief, intense stare, they understood each other's meaning—to kill you!
Without hesitation, Kakashi charged towards the Iwa Rock Ninja with the afro!
Lightning Release Chakra was too much of a burden on his body; he had to finish the fight quickly!
The spiky-haired Rock Ninja had no intention of running away and charged straight at Kakashi!
Bring it on!
Let's see who can kill whom!
The two drew closer and closer, but even when they were less than a meter apart and about to engage in hand-to-hand combat, they made no defensive move whatsoever.
Yes, only the madness to drive the opponent to their death!
Pfft!
It sounded like the calls of thousands of birds were ringing in his ears, and Rock Ninja's eyes bulged instantly.
He looked at Kakashi in disbelief; at the very last moment of the handover, the kid's speed had actually increased again!
'Damn brat!'
The last thought flashed through Rock Ninja hair flashed before he died completely.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
Kakashi was panting.
As the spiky-haired Rock Ninja collapsed, he too collapsed to his knees, exhausted, gasping for fresh air.
His burning lungs convulsed, as if accusing Kakashi of forcibly increasing his Lightning Release Chakra and oppressing his body.
Kakashi, supporting himself, staggered to the spot where he had broken through the ruins.
"Lin, you're safe now, cough cough!"
Kakashi spoke with difficulty, the spasms in his lungs making it hard for him to utter a complete sentence.
"Did you hear that? Obito, we won!"
Rin held Obito's hand tightly, tears streaming down her face, and whispered something.
They won this battle!
They won!
"Obito, we won... cough cough cough!"
Kakashi, in a hoarse voice, was also speaking to Obito was on his deathbed.
He now hopes that Obito can die with fewer regrets and less pain.
"As expected of you, Kakashi!"
Obito his left eye tightly closed. Even though he could no longer see, a smile still appeared on his lips as he echoed the words of the two.
"Hey, you brat from Konoha!"
"Can you tell us what happened here?"
A strange voice, tinged with laughter and sounding like a demon to the three of them, came from not far away, causing them to freeze.
Moreover, more than one laugh was heard!
Kakashi suddenly looked up and followed the sound into the woods.
Rock Ninja!
A huge group of Rock Ninja!
They stood on the tree branches, playing with their ninja tools, laughing maliciously.
Kakashi and Rin froze completely.
The Rock Ninja have reinforcements, but what about them?
Will they provide support?
We can't expect the Rock Ninja on them and let them go, can we?
The Rock Ninja show no mercy to the Konoha Ninja!
The Rock Ninja standing in the center stopped playing with his Kunai with a smile.
"What an amazing friendship!"
"Then, may you two be together forever!"
