Chapter 779 Kakashi; Raikiri Arc (Part 1)

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

"You’re lying, right? Cut off the lightning? The name of Raikiri seems to have spread when Kakashi-sensei was fourteen years old. Isn’t it impossible for Kakashi-sensei to have such abilities at that time?" Sakura was surprised.

To say that Kakashi can cut lightning now, Sakura has no doubts.

But at the age of fourteen to have such an ability? Sakura felt that Guy is joking.

Naruto and Sasuke's expressions were also showed a bit of surprise when they heard this. ‘At the age of fourteen, Kakashi-sensei can cut the lightning in the sky?’

‘What an amazing ability.’

Neji, Tenten and Lee, who are on the side, are also amazed.

"Guy-sensei! Is that true? Has Kakash-sensei really ever cut lightning?" Lee said with a look of longing.

"Of course it's true! I saw it with my own eyes at that time! This is youth!"

Guy said, and the endless fire of youth bursting out of his eyes.

"Gekimayu-sensei, tell us quickly." Naruto excitedly said.

Such a story, Naruto would really like to know.

"Cough, okay, I'll tell you this story now!"

Guy said while showing his signature smile.

"That said, it was seventeen years ago. It was my first mission since I became a Chunin. Kakashi is the captain of our squad..."

The memories slowly drew back to that time.

At that time, Kakashi was only fourteen years old.

In a forest, Kakashi looked at the three in front of him.

This was the first normal mission he accepted after joining Anbu.

That is, a mission without Anbu's identity.

And in front of him, there are three Chunin.

He is the only Jōnin in this mission.

Among the three Chunin, there is also a familiar face, which is, Guy.

Guy finally became a Chunin by virtue of his excellent Taijutsu to supplement his theory ability.

"I’ll simply introduce myself. My name is Hatake Kakashi, Jōnin and I am your squad captain this time. Our mission is to rescue the members of the intelligence team that was captured by Iwagakure, Shiranui Rin. We are not allowed to fail!"

"Yes, Captain!" The three answered in unison.

"Set off!"

"Yes!"

Chakra surged under the feet of the four of them and they moved at extremely fast speed.

Kakashi cut his thumb slightly with a kunai, and blood flow out, and then, his hands formed hand seals.

"Kuchiyose no Jutsu!" (Summoning Technique)

Bang!

A puff of smoke appeared, and a puppy wearing Shinobi gear appeared in front of everyone.

"Yo, Kakashi, long time no see."

Kakashi handed a forehead protector to Pakkun and said, "Pakkun, find this person's location."

Parker sniffed it and then turned around and started to run.

Kakashi and the others follow after him.

"Kakashi, let's compete! In this mission, I will definitely find this Shiranui Rin first!" Guy said excitedly.

This is his first mission since becoming a Chunin so he can't wait to prove his worth.

Hearing this, Kakashi said solemnly: "Guy, the mission this time is A-rank, and may even become an S-rank at any time. No nonsense is allowed. Every mistake in judgment may lead to the failure of the mission."

Generally speaking, Chunin isn’t allowed to participate in such a mission. The reason why these three Chunin was allowed in this mission is that after the Kyūbi’s Attack, Konoha is short on manpower.

The second reason is that, although these three are only Chunin, their strengths are not weak, and they all have Tokubetsu Jōnin's combat power.

Seeing that Kakashi was so serious, Guy realized that this was not time for nonsense, and immediately became quiet.

Kakashi glanced at the three behind him and said in a low voice: "This squad is temporarily formed so everyone is not familiar with each other. You all should introduce yourselves to each other, especially what you are good at. This will be crucial in the battles as we can assign our role accordingly."

"Yosh! Let me go first. I am Might Guy, and I’m good at Taijutsu!" Guy said, revealing his big white teeth, and showed a thumb up.

It's hard to imagine how he could do this while moving at high speed.

Looking at Guy like this, the other two’s faces are full of black lines as they are confused why they are in a team with such a person.

"My name is Hyuga Kaze, I am good at Gentle Fist and reconnaissance."

"My name is Aburame Saburo. I’m good at using Kikaichū and tracking."

Kakashi nodded and said: "Okay, I understand. Hyuga Kaze, I want you to pay attention to the situation ahead. Aburame Saburo, I will leave the situation on the left, right and rear to you."

"Yes, Captain!"

Although Kakashi was younger than them, they didn't dare to show any disagreement as they knew about Kakashi’s strength and position.

"Kakashi! Then what am I responsible for!" Guy said excitedly.

"You are responsible for being quiet."

Guy: "..."

"Yosh! As expected of Kakashi! Youth is not allowed to refuse a task. I accept this task!"

When Guy finished speaking, he closed his mouth.

Kakashi feels that his ears can finally rest in such quietness.

This time, the assignment of candidates is quite deliberate. Hyuga and Aburame Clan are indeed good tracker, and they are the most suitable for saving people.

And Kakashi's ninja dog is also good at finding people, so he is very suitable to be in this search and rescue squad.

And Aburame Saburo and Hyuga Kaze's strengths are not weak, and they are the best in the same level.

With this in mind, there is a high probability that the mission will be successful.

As for why Guy was assign in this mission, it is probably because Sandaime Hokage feel that Guy is very strong, and he also has a tacit understanding with Kakashi, so it is appropriate for him to fill this position.

Rushing all the way, Pakkun's nose kept twitching, exploring the enemy's situation.

"Stop!"

Hyuga Kaze suddenly shouted.

Kakashi, Pakkun and the others stopped immediately after hearing this.

"There are traps ahead," Hyuga Kaze said.

When Kakashi heard this, he pushed up his forehead protector, and Sharingan spun slightly, and dense amount of steel wires appeared in the field of vision.

“Traps? There are quite a few of them. These people seem to be prepared.”

Kakashi said while looking around, ‘The sizes of these traps are not small, and it will take a lot of time to completely avoid it.’

‘Then, we can only break through it.’

Kakashi looked back at the Hyuga Kage and said, "I'll leave it to you."

Hyuga Kaze was stunned, and then immediately said, "Yes!"

There is nothing more suitable than the Hyuga Clan to clean up this kind of thing.

"Byakugan!"

Under Byakugan’s vision, the wires hidden in the trees and the grass all became incredibly clear.

Hyuga Kaze rushed in directly, and blue chakra appeared in his hand.

Numerous blue rays flew out from Hyuga Kaze’s hands, and each rays cut a steel wire.

In an instant, the dense steel wire was all cleared.

Kakashi nodded slightly when he saw this, ‘Sure enough, these people's strength is very good.’

"Amazing! This is youth!" Guy said excitedly.

After the wire was cleared, Kakashi said: "Let’s continue on. Since the enemy has set such traps, that means they have not gone too far, so they tried to hold us with traps. Now, we need to be more careful."

"Yes, Captain!"
