Chapter 10 The Birth of the Mangekyou Sharingan!
Chapter 10 The Birth of the Mangekyou Sharingan!
The Third Hokage looked at Minamoto no Takuya and hesitated for a moment.
After all, Gen Takuno was just a special Jonin who specialized in sealing techniques. Even his usual missions were of this type, so he didn't need to use sealing techniques in this kind of small-scale emergency battle, so he wasn't asked to come along.
Even if he provides support, the effect may not be significant.
Soon, the Third Hokage made a decision: Minamoto no Takuno was not only skilled in sealing techniques, but he had also mastered advanced medical ninjutsu such as the Palm Healing Technique.
Moreover, the other party was also a survivor who had experienced the most intense periods of World War II and World War III.
The other party participated in the entire Second World War, and only applied to leave the battlefield and return to the village after the Battle of Kannabi Bridge in the Third World War. At that time, the sealing technique was not needed on the battlefield, and the other party was also a scientific research talent, so the battlefield was not very useful. Therefore, he agreed to let the other party return to the village.
But in any case, since he was able to survive on the battlefield, he must have had his own unique understanding of combat.
Even for a younger generation like Kakashi Hatake, defeating him might not be so easy.
"Alright, Takuno, you go ahead and provide support. The mission is to rescue Nohara Rin and successfully bring back Hatake Kakashi. Jonin will follow up to provide support. This mission is designated as Rank A!" the Third Hokage said.
"Yes!" After saying that, Yuan Tuoye used the Body Flicker Technique to leave, following the signal left by the Anbu.
This time, he didn't need to conserve his limited chakra as usual, so the chakra gathered under his feet never stopped. Using the Body Flicker Technique, he quickly surpassed the Anbu and continued to explore forward.
After surpassing the pursuing Dark Side, Gen Takuno changed his course of action, proceeding in the direction provided by the crow.
However, his speed decreased at this point.
Because he didn't need to go that early, rescuing Nohara Rin would not benefit him at all.
Moreover, at this point, Nohara Rin was probably already sealed by the opponent with a sealing technique, which was placed directly on her heart. Even in the late game, Obito Uchiha would have to rely on Kakashi Hatake to pierce her chest again to break it.
It's basically certain that this is an unsolvable sealing technique, and even at full speed, he couldn't possibly surpass Kakashi Hatake at this point.
Kakashi Hatake couldn't stop Rin Nohara from being used as a humanoid tailed beast bomb, so he naturally didn't have the time, unless he intervened from the very beginning.
But that's impossible.
And if we go too early, what if we run into Obito Uchiha? If he's still there and we want to silence him, that would be troublesome.
Takuno Minamoto traveled at a leisurely pace; he only needed to arrive before Rin Nohara was completely dead.
…………
Meanwhile, Kakashi Hatake had caught up with the Mist Ninja and killed the one who was with Rin Nohara using his shuriken.
At that moment, thunderous lightning erupted from Kakashi Hatake's right hand, sounding like the chirping of birds.
The Mist Ninja didn't seem to have any intention of capturing Nohara Rin again, which puzzled Kakashi Hatake.
Just then, Nohara Rin seemed to say something to Hatake Kakashi, causing his eyes to widen in shock and disbelief.
Then, Nohara Rin gave Hatake Kakashi a warm smile, and then she rushed towards him, aiming her heart at the still-screaming Chidori Technique.
Blood magnified in his eyes. Kakashi Hatake stared in disbelief at Rin Nohara before him. Had he... killed Rin Nohara?
"I'm sorry, Kakashi."
As her consciousness began to fade, Nohara Rin uttered her last words. She knew about Hatake Kakashi's psychological problems and that dying at his hands might leave another deep and unhealed wound on his already broken heart.
However, she didn't know what else to do. Under the effect of the sealing technique, she couldn't hurt herself, and the Three-Tails placed inside her by the Mist Ninja was always ready to go berserk, like a time bomb.
The Mist Ninja definitely won't kill her.
Therefore, this was the only method she could think of, but it was far too painful for Kakashi Hatake.
Kakashi Hatake seemed to have lost all his strength. He didn't even have the strength to support Rin Nohara. He watched as she collapsed to the ground, blood flowing continuously from her chest. He swayed and looked like he could fall over at any moment.
Meanwhile, behind the Mist Ninja, a figure emerged from the grass—it was none other than Uchiha Obito, whose face was half-disfigured. He was stunned the moment he broke through the grass.
He didn't know what was happening ahead; all he saw was Kakashi Hatake, with his self-created ninjutsu, piercing Rin Nohara's heart.
In that instant, Kakashi Hatake and Obito Uchiha's eyes widened. Their two-tomoe Sharingan were spinning rapidly, and a third tomoe was born instantly, but the changes did not stop.
Ultimately, it formed a Mangekyou Sharingan that extended outward from a dark center point, creating three curved boomerang-shaped blades!
Kakashi Hatake, who had also activated his Kaleidoscope Sharingan, could no longer hold on and finally collapsed to the ground next to Rin Nohara.
Obito Uchiha was completely unaware of what had happened. He had just... seemingly witnessed a false scene. Before he knew it, his body had rushed forward towards the group of Kirigakure ninja who were still shouting and causing trouble.
The carnage erupted at that moment. He used all his skills, even asking the White Zetsu he was fused with for help, and used the Wood Release technique that instantly tore the enemy into countless pieces, leaving the ground covered in blood.
After doing all this, Obito Uchiha walked towards Rin Nohara's direction, his figure swaying as if he could collapse to the ground at any moment.
Finally, he arrived in front of Nohara Rin. Looking at Nohara Rin lying in a pool of blood, his eyes were devoid of color.
Is this... hell?
Obito Uchiha was thinking vaguely.
He didn't know how much time had passed; he was completely oblivious to the passage of time.
The White Zetsu on his body suddenly spoke, "Obito, Konoha ninjas are coming! We need to leave quickly!"
Upon hearing this, Obito Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan spun once more, revealing no emotion. He seemed to sense the direction the other party was coming from and looked in that direction.
Is it like this again? Am I late again?
What's the point of such belated support?!
"Obito, let's hurry up! We don't know how many more ninjas are following behind them!" White Zetsu's voice also carried a hint of anxiety.
"Oh." Obito Uchiha withdrew his gaze, taking one last look at Rin Nohara. He didn't know how he had left, and in a daze, he found himself back in that cave, standing in front of the white-haired Madara Uchiha.
Madara Uchiha, with the help of Black Zetsu, looked at the other's appearance, and an invisible smile appeared on his lips.
That's right, it's precisely this kind of despair that makes it the easiest to manipulate!
The plan is proceeding perfectly!
