Chapter 121 Kakashi's Strangeness
Tsunade quickly adjusted her emotions. Now was not the time to think about other things.
Just now through the communication with Kakashi.
It is guessed that if Hiruko wants to obtain the bloodline limit, he must use a special ritual.
Tsunade had heard of this special ritual before, and it seemed to require a specific light to complete.
Turning to the calendar, the annular solar eclipse will be in two days.
That means they only have two days to resolve the incident.
The preparations for the technique were completed quickly, and Tsunade scribbled on the back of Kakashi's hand.
After some examination, it was confirmed that the procedure had been effective.
Kakashi said goodbye to Tsunade and came to Konoha's hero cemetery.
This time I'm probably in big trouble, so at least I should say goodbye to them properly.
After waiting for more than two hours, Kakashi felt that it was enough and walked back.
He happened to run into Shikamaru who came to pay his respects.
"Shikamaru, you're here to see Asuma again?"
Shikamaru nodded, holding Asuma's relic lighter in his hand.
"Where's Kakashi-sensei? Are you here at the cemetery in the middle of the night to pay your respects?"
Kakashi said nothing and walked over to Shikamaru.
"Shikamaru, I want to ask you a favor."
Shikamaru was very confused after hearing this. Why didn't Kakashi go to Team 7 for help if he had any problems?
What do you want me to do?
Kakashi then revealed the plan of the operation to Shikamaru.
"So, Shikamaru, you must stop Naruto and Nanatsuki."
“This is the best solution at the moment.”
Shikamaru scratched his hair irritably and looked at Kakashi helplessly.
"Kakashi-sensei, Naruto's words are so easy to fool."
"But as for July, to be honest, I have no way to deal with it."
"Whether in terms of strength or wisdom, I am inferior to her."
Kakashi also understood the difficulty of this matter, but this was the only solution.
Kakashi left, leaving Shikamaru alone in thought.
From an emotional point of view, he didn't want Kakashi to choose this step.
This is different from playing shogi, where Shikamaru can sacrifice most of his pieces without hesitation.
To ensure victory, but it is not possible in reality.
He recalled what Asuma had said to him before his death about 'Jade'.
The current situation is indeed as Kakashi said, it has reached a point where it is no longer possible.
Thinking of this, Shikamaru gradually strengthened his determination.
When the night came, Kakashi gave up his resistance to the puppet mark.
He walked slowly out of the village, and his strange appearance soon attracted the attention of the two great gate gods of Konoha.
He went up to ask Kakashi why he was out of the village so late, but what he got was a smooth combo of physical attacks from Kakashi.
Both of them fell into coma, and with the soft light of the moon, Kakashi's figure gradually disappeared.
Shikamaru followed behind and watched Kakashi leave, then calmed himself down and turned to walk towards the Hokage Building.
But what Shikamaru didn't notice was that there was a figure standing in the shadow of the wall outside the village.
A flash of cold light reflected by the lens passed by, and this person was July who was returning to the village after patrolling.
She noticed from a distance that something was wrong with Kakashi, and his body was staggering as if he was drunk.
But in such a tense period, how could Kakashi get himself drunk without considering priorities?
So I hid in the shadow outside the door and observed quietly.
Just as she guessed, the strange Kakashi quickly dealt with the two Izumos who were trying to stop them.
Then she walked deeper into the forest, and later she found Shikamaru following her.
Something must have happened in the meantime.
Nanatsuki quickly followed Kakashi, wanting to see what he was going to do.
Just like that, he ran away and she chased him, and he couldn't escape even if he had wings.
The next morning, after racking his brains to come up with a solution, Shikamaru went to find Naruto first.
Tell him that Kakashi was recently sent on a secret mission and is not in the village for the time being.
If you have any problem, go to Yamato or Hokage-sama.
This was what I discussed with Tsunade last night. We should first stabilize Naruto, who is the easiest to fool.
Afterwards, Shikamaru took out the Hokage's order and came to Nanazuki's door.
But no matter how he knocked on the door, there was no movement from inside.
Could he be not at home? Shikamaru hurried to look for the ninja who was patrolling with Nanazuki last night.
Ask them about last night, hoping your worries are unnecessary.
But Murphy's Law tells us that the more you don't want something to happen, the more likely it is to happen.
The team members who were on guard together told Shikamaru the approximate time when July would return to the village.
Thinking back to the time Kakashi left the village last night, it just happened to be the same time.
Things were beyond Shikamaru's expectations and he ran towards the Hokage Building without stopping.
After explaining the situation to Tsunade, she immediately sent out ANBU to search for Nanatsuki in the village.
An hour passed, and the Anbu sent out kept coming back to report the news.
There was no sign of July.
It seems that the thing I was most worried about has happened. July may have met Kakashi when he returned to the village.
He also noticed something was wrong with Kakashi and followed him all the way.
Without further ado, Tsunade asked Shikamaru to immediately gather people to chase after Nanyue who was following Kakashi.
Shikamaru received the order and notified all his classmates except Naruto and Sai.
The people gathered at the entrance of the village did not know the content of this mission.
After Xiao Li raised the question, Shikamaru had no choice but to tell them the whole story.
Xiao Li, who has an extremely high level of empathy, and Inuzuka Kiba said they could understand July's approach.
"Hokage-sama doesn't want to go this far, but this is the only solution."
"This is also a manifestation of Kakashi-sensei's Will of Fire."
"So we must not let July ruin this plan."
"Okay, now that I've explained the reasons clearly to you, if any of you want to quit."
"Then do it now, or we'll leave quickly."
Neji crossed his arms and gave Lee a cold look.
"Shikamaru is the captain of this operation, I obey him."
Shino, who had always been a transparent person, also stood up at this time.
"In fact, the most fundamental purpose is to protect the village, so I joined."
"If you want to know why, it's because that's the order from the Hokage."
With someone setting an example, the rest of the people quickly reached a consensus.
In order to protect the village and the most important people, each of them is willing to sacrifice.
This time it was Kakashi, next time it might be them.
Since everyone agrees, let's not waste any more time.
Ya Akamaru led the way and the others followed.
But after everyone left, another person appeared at the village gate.
After taking a closer look, he found out it was Sai. He thought for a while.
He quickly ran back to the village, not knowing what to do.
At this time, on the border between the Fenghuo countries, a group of people were walking in a winding canyon.
Judging from their attire, they were ninjas from the Sand Village. In the center of the team was a sedan chair carried by four people.
The figure inside is looming.
