Chapter 227 The Disappearance of “The Will of Fire”! The Rift Between Kakashi and Konoha!

Kisame held the hilt of the sword Samehada in both hands, and just lightly chipped the seal barrier. The sharp barbs on Sameki's body cut off a large portion of the energy barrier's chakra.

There was a huge gap in the sealing formation that trapped Kakashi.

The gap is large enough for a person over two meters tall to pass.

Kisame and Kaidu walked in one after another, and their appearance immediately attracted the attention of the remaining six ninjas.

Whether it is Kisame Kisaki or Metkai, they are all familiar ninjas in the eyes of these six root ninjas.

But they didn't expect that at such a critical moment, these two guys would suddenly appear.

Wait, could it be that they had colluded with Kakashi a long time ago?

"Tsk, Kakashi, you are so embarrassed!"

Kisame put the sword Samehada on his shoulders and looked at Kakashi who was under control. He smiled teasingly: "How long has it been? Has it been ten minutes? You were captured by them."

The face behind Kakashi's mask was full of helplessness: "None of them are weak. The weakest one is also at the level of an elite chuunin. The weakest one was just killed by my Raikiri."

"The remaining six people can at least be special jounin in Konoha. You let me deal with these seven people at the same time, and still in such a small space..."

Kakashi couldn't help but complain: "Even if you find a way to make me twice as strong, I may not be able to defeat them all!"

"Kakashi, don't be afraid! We will save you!" Metkai said to Kakashi first, then glared at the six ninjas: "Who are you guys? Why do you want to hurt Kakashi?" Cassie!”

The six root ninjas looked at each other, how could they expose their family?

They had a tacit understanding, two restrained Kakashi's body, and one was ready to dig out Kakashi's eyes.

The remaining three people rushed directly towards Kai and Kisame without any hesitation.

"Mr. Kai, I'll deal with them, you go save Kakashi." Kisame smiled ferociously, and he rushed forward without fear.

"Okay!" Kai decisively activated the "Eight Gate Dunjia" and rushed to the sixth scene gate in one breath. The skin all over his body began to blush, and the skin was even more entangled with veins.

Visible chakra is surging around the body.

He just stomped on the ground, and the ground beneath his feet shattered.

The speed of the body increased to an incredible extreme.

The three root ninjas who wanted to block Kai and Kisame didn't even react before Kai passed by the three of them.

The speed was so fast and the strong air flow stirred up that a fierce wind blew up in the alley.

The root ninja holding the kunai was about to pierce the kunai into Kakashi's eye socket when he hit his waist with a strong and powerful flying kick.

"Exciting Konoha Vajra Power Cyclone!!!"

What followed was a loud and strange cry from Kai.

The astonishing and terrifying power of this kick directly dented the ninja's waist.

"Pow wow!!!"

The root ninja, who weighed more than a hundred kilograms, was kicked out.

He opened his mouth and vomited out blood with fragments of internal organs.

The body even hit the barrier of barrier ninjutsu directly.

The scorching heat of the barrier burned the root ninja's body into a blackened "roast".

The clothes on his body started to burn.

The whole person fell straight to the ground.

Died suddenly on the spot!

"Ahhh!!!"

Gai kicked Kakashi with a split leg, but this kick did not hit Kakashi's body, but hit the chains binding Kakashi's feet.

The moment the chain broke, Kakashi's right hand was filled with lightning, and he immediately turned around without hesitation.

There was a click of his strangled arm, and there was a sound of dislocation.

But Kakashi didn't care about the pain.

One of his thunderous hands had already stabbed behind him.

Pfft——

With this blow, another root ninja fell into Kakashi's hands.

Kakashi grabbed the dislocated arm and gently pulled, pulled, and pushed.

Reposition the dislocated arm.

Kisame's side.

Three root ninjas were stopped by him alone. He held a large sword, Samehada, and smashed it at one of the root ninjas.

The root ninja reacted quickly and ducked sideways to avoid Kisame's blow.

But the next second, Kisame pulled the sword Samehada back.

Tear!

The barbs on Samehada's body severely cut the waist of this base ninja in an instant, and even the intestines in his body were cut off by the barbs of Samehada. The scene was very bloody.

"Go to hell!"

Suddenly, a root ninja held a ninja sword and slashed behind Kisame.

The ninja sword tore through the air and let out a sharp roar.

At the moment when Kisame was about to behead him with a single blow, it seemed as if there was an eye on the back of Kisame's head.

He just tilted his head and dodged the knife from behind.

Kisame grinned ferociously: "The cognition skills taught by my father are so useful! Although I'm not very skilled yet, I always work well and sometimes fail. But at critical times, it can help people avoid fatal blows."

Kisame turned his head.

His bloodshot eyes looked at the root ninja behind him.

Without hesitation, he kicked him sideways.

The root ninja hurriedly raised his knees to resist, but when this kick hit his knee, the hard knee was directly shattered by the kick!

Kisame's strange power made Kai, who had not opened the Eight Gates of Dunjia, exclaim, which was unbelievable.

"hiss!"

The root ninja, whose knees were smashed by the kick, was so painful that he broke into cold sweat all over his body.

The next second, Samehada had already smashed into him.

Samehada opened his big mouth and bit down hard on the ninja who was unable to dodge in time because his knees were crushed.

Samehada chewed hard, not only chewing up the flesh and blood on the ninja's arm, but also biting off more than half of the opponent's chakra.

"Fire Release·Haolong Double Flame Bullet!!!"

Another root ninja had already formed a seal with his hands and spit out two huge fire dragons at Kisame.

"Water Release·Double Shark Bullet Technique!!!"

Kisame also used a ninjutsu.

Fight back.

Two fire dragons and two sharks collided in mid-air. The entire alley was filled with billowing steam, and everyone's sight was obstructed.

"Tsk, tsk, you guys...have you forgotten that I am from Kirigakure Village?" Kisame's voice sounded in the thick steam mist.

The next second, Kisame seemed to turn into a shinigami in the thick fog of steam.

Silently, he appeared behind the root ninja who had an injured knee.

This is the silent killing technique of Kirigakure Village!

This has also become Kisame's home court!

Kisame waved his sword, Samehada, and Samehada opened his mouth again and bit the root ninja's head.

Just listen to a "bang" sound.

Douda's head was bitten off by the same shark, and scarlet blood rushed two to three meters high from the broken part of his neck.

As time passes by.

Probably only three or four minutes later.

The alley fell into deathly silence.

The formation barrier that sealed the alley began to gradually collapse.

The dense steam fog that filled the alley slowly dissipated.

The three people who came into view... were Kakashi, Kisame, and Gai standing.

There was also a root ninja whose legs were missing and his hands were bound by chains. He was forced to kneel on the ground and could not move.

The remaining six are corpses lying on the ground!

"These guys are really good!" Kisame reached out and wiped a small wound on his cheek, then licked the blood on his fingertips.

He gently used his sword, Samehada, to lift the gas mask off the face of the kneeling ninja, and an ordinary face appeared in front of the three of them.

It can be seen that this face is full of unwillingness and anger.

It seemed like this guy was very unconvinced.

"Kakashi, do you know this guy?" Kisame looked at Kakashi.

"I don't know him." Kakashi shook his head: "I've never seen him."

Kai came closer and looked at the face of the root ninja: "Hey, your companions are all dead, and your action failed. If you are sensible, you'd better tell us what your purpose is."

Kakashi answered this question for the root ninja: "Their purpose is to take away my Sharingan."

After that, Kakashi asked this person: "Who caused this to you? I think my three magatama sharingan is not worth so many people to snatch, right?"

"Hmph..." The root ninja gritted his teeth and snorted coldly. He did not answer anyone's question, and his mouth moved slightly, as if he was stirring something with his tongue.

However, in the next moment, Kakashi immediately reached out and grabbed his throat, and decisively removed his chin.

All I saw was a poison disguised as a back molar...

fell from the man's mouth.

"He seems to be a determined warrior! He would rather commit suicide by taking poison than expose who is standing behind him."

Kisame smiled ferociously and said: "Kakashi, leave him to me! We Blood Mist Ninjas have ten thousand different ways to make such a tough guy spit out information."

Kakashi, who has keener observation skills, pinched the tongue of the root ninja with one hand.

Not caring about the saliva on the other person's tongue.

He pulled his tongue out.

Kisame opened his eyes and looked at his tongue: "Is this... some kind of curse seal?"

He turned to look at Kakashi, and Kisame noticed that something was wrong with Kakashi's expression. "You seem to recognize this curse seal? What kind of curse seal is this?"

"This is... the seal of tongue's annihilation!" Kakashi's eyes, one red and one black, were shrouded in a layer of gloom.

As a copy ninja, Kakashi is proficient in thousands of ninjutsu, and this is also a technique that Kakashi knows.

And Kakashi knows better that this technique is Konoha's unique ninjutsu!

At least as far as he knew, there were no people in other villages outside of Konoha who would "seal the evil tongue."

"It's a root! I've seen the roots killed by Whitebeard! I once curiously checked their corpses after death, and they all had this kind of curse mark on their tongues!"

Kakashi couldn't help but tighten his grip on the man's tongue, causing the root ninja to scream "Ahhhhhh" in pain.

"Gen?" Kai next to him was confused: "Is this guy from Genbu? Then the other six guys..."

Kai hurriedly ran to a corpse, then opened the other person's mouth and pulled out the tongue.

I also found a very faint curse mark on my tongue.

And with the death of this root ninja, the "Seal of the Tongue's Root" disappeared visibly.

Kai's expression also changed a bit.

Although Kai usually has a bit of a funny personality, he likes to be straightforward when doing things and doesn't think too much.

But he is a mature-minded adult after all, and he realizes why Kakashi has such big mood swings.

"Roots? It seems like you are from Konoha, right? The roots of Konoha want to kill Konoha's Hatake Kakashi, and want to dig out Hatake Kakashi's eyes. Ha... things seem to have changed. It’s getting interesting, you guys in Konoha are really causing a lot of drama!”

Kisame's laughter was a bit teasing.

…

the other side.

Puff puff puff——

One by one, the origami shurikens, which were comparable to steel, pierced the body of the last root ninja.

The root ninja's eyes suddenly widened.

He never expected that the ninjas who raided Yu Ninja Village this time would end up in such a disastrous defeat.

All the companions were killed by each other.

The root ninja staggered forward and fell forward.

The ground was already scarlet.

The seriously injured Jōnin of the Rain Ninja Village team leaned against the wall, trying to open his eyelids and breathing hard: "But, damn it...who are these guys?"

Then, he turned to look at Xiaonan next to him.

He was amazed at Lord Angel's strength.

Not even injured at all!

Konan glanced at the rain ninja Jonin: "If you make such a big noise, the ninjas of Konoha will probably come over, and they will send you to the hospital in Konoha Village."

Then, Konan kicked the fallen root ninja over.

This is the only root ninja still alive.

However, the injuries on this man's body were very serious, and at least a dozen origami shurikens were deeply inserted into his body.

The whole person lost the ability to move.

Because the tendons of every joint are severed.

A piece of paper floated up in Xiaonan's palm, and with a flick of her wrist, the sharp paper cut off the other person's mask.

"Huh?" The moment he saw this face, Xiaonan was suddenly startled, and a pair of beautiful eyebrows frowned deeply: "I have seen this guy before."

The injured Rain Ninja Murakami was shocked. He endured the pain on his body and asked curiously: "Master Angel, who is he?"

Konan said in a cold tone: "This guy is a ninja of Konoha. I met this guy when I came to Konoha with the Redemption King Kong."

Xiaonan has a very strong memory.

It is impossible for a root ninja to wear a mask all day long, and Xiao Nan happened to meet this root ninja when the other person was not wearing a mask.

"The ninjas of Konoha?" The jounin led by the rain ninja were suddenly shocked: "Why did the ninjas of Konoha attack us?"

"Ahem!" In his excitement, he coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood: "Damn it! What does the Third Hokage mean? Does the Third Hokage want to provoke a war between the two countries?"

"The Third Hokage of Konoha must give us an explanation, and he must also give us an explanation in the Rain Ninja Village!"

"..."

…

Kakashi was in a daze at this time, and it was really hard for him not to think about some conspiracy theories.

A few days ago, the Third Hokage inexplicably transferred himself to the root. He once explained to the Third Hokage the matter of being followed, but the Hokage's answers and behavior were very perfunctory.

A few days later today, he was assassinated by someone from the Roots, who also wanted to take away his Sharingan by force.

Isn't this a bit too much of a coincidence?

It was such a coincidence that it was hard for Kakashi not to wonder, are these root ninjas related to Naruto?

What do you want to do?

After the village used public opinion to kill his father, Konoha White Fang, Hatake Sakumo, did he still want to forcibly kill his Hatake Kakashi?

Did my loyalty to the Leaf Village and respect for the Third Hokage only lead to this result?

The father is dead, the mother is dead.

He almost died too.

The surname "Hatake" is just a little bit...

He will disappear from the ninja world.

"Kakashi! Let's take this guy and these corpses and run to report to Lord Hokage!" Kai gritted his teeth in anger for his friend: "You are a jounin of Konoha Village, why do these guys from the same village want to kill you?"

"Kakashi, as long as you tell Lord Hokage this matter, Lord Hokage will definitely seek justice for you! Moreover, we have to go to the leader of Gen to get an explanation!"

"...Kakashi?" Kai noticed that Kakashi had no reaction, and he couldn't help but reached out and patted Kakashi on the shoulder.

"Kai...that's not necessary." Kakashi shook his head and said, "Do you think we can get an explanation by bringing them to the Hokage?"

Kai was stunned.

Kakashi let go of his hand, looked down at the saliva and blood directly stained with it, and whispered: "Kai, what a coincidence, everything is too coincidental."

Gai actually knew what Kakashi was referring to when he said it was too coincidental.

Kai couldn't help but said: "Then we have to find Hokage-sama! We have to ask clearly! Right?"

"Mr. Kai, don't be so naive!" Kisame, carrying the sword Samehada, interrupted: "In case... these root ninjas are related to your Third Hokage, even if you find him, he will tell you the truth. ?"

"Even if it has nothing to do with him, and is only related to that Shimura Danzo or Mito Gate Flame, what's the use?" Kisame sarcastically said: "Don't forget, the last Konoha ninja who almost died at the hands of Nebe was Uchiha Shisui!"

"As a result, what punishment did the mastermind get? Your Third Hokage just locked him in Konoha Prison, and didn't even strictly prohibit him from leaving the prison."

Kisame paused and continued: "No matter who ordered the action, no one will pay the price for this matter. This is the politics of Konoha! Haha, it's quite ironic!"

Kai fell silent.

Because he had no way to refute Kisame's words.

The three grown men present fell into a deathly silence.

"Kakashi, maybe we can ask more questions from this guy..."

Before Kai could finish his sentence, a kunai had already penetrated the throat of this root ninja.

Kai looked at Kakashi next to him in shock.

Because it was Kakashi who moved his hand.

"It's useless. People who are engraved with the 'seal of the tongue that eradicates the evil' will never tell any secrets in this life."

Kakashi was suppressing the anger rising in his heart.

To be honest, he has never been angered by anyone since the day he was filled with the will to die.

No matter how cruel the battle was, no matter how hard he was beaten by Uchiha Itachi's Tsukuyomi, no matter how much he was tortured by Naruto and Whitebeard, Kakashi's mentality was actually like a pool of stagnant water.

However, tonight, Kakashi's mood fluctuated greatly.

A pool of stagnant water splashed with ripples.

For a moment, Kakashi felt in a daze that he was in Konoha... was there any need to stay?

Isn't it a bit ironic that Konoha, who wanted to protect Konoha, became the party who wanted to take his life?

The last "anchor" in Kakashi's heart began to disappear without a trace in tonight's assassination.

The anchor that disappeared from my heart.

It's called "The Will of Fire."
