Obito arrived at the pair's hideout alone. As for how he knew it was the right place...
A little stone hut that big was hard to miss.
"Looks like that's the place..."
The invisible Taiseki spotted Obito and swiftly launched a surprise attack from behind him!
Obito heard the rush of air but didn't turn around.
Kakashi burst out from one side and knocked the weapon straight out of Taiseki's hand!
"Backup already!"
Kakashi and Obito exchanged a knowing look.
As long as the broad strokes matched, not every detail had to be identical.
Obito watched closely with his two-tomoe Sharingan while Kakashi pursued relentlessly with his obsidian short blade.
"These brats! Did they specifically train to fight invisible opponents?"
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
A massive fireball suddenly swept toward Taiseki, and he instinctively slowed down to dodge.
Kakashi charged straight at him from behind!
Taiseki spun around and blocked Kakashi as he flew through the air.
But both attacks were feints. The real killing blow came from beneath Taiseki's feet!
"Konoha Taijutsu Secret Art!"
Another Kakashi emerged from Taiseki's shadow, holding an unfamiliar short blade.
"Thousand Years of Death!"
"You bastard!"
Taiseki howled in agony!
"Goodbye!"
The real Kakashi drove his obsidian short blade deep into Taiseki's chest.
Having watched Obito's complete memories, all three of them had gained considerable combat experience.
Though there were still a few rough edges.
The two exchanged a quick fist bump, then charged toward the fortress below.
Inside, Kakkō was crouching in front of Rin, preparing to interrogate her with genjutsu.
Hearing the noise, he immediately turned around.
"What did you two brats do to Taiseki?"
"He's dead. Want to join him?"
"Arrogant brats!"
The two launched themselves straight at Kakkō, who leaped nimbly away and landed at the cave entrance.
