"So, who exactly are you?"
Hatake Kakashi reached for his ninja pouch and continued softly, "Why would he need to find a way to kill you just because you know his identity?"
"..."
Uehara Naraku’s face didn’t look very pleased.
Is this Hatake Kakashi an idiot or sothing?
Why not ask about Obito but keep asking about his identity? Isn’t this just wasting Uehara Naraku’s talent for storytelling!
The reason Uehara Naraku didn’t want to make a move on Hatake Kakashi was that he wanted to stay behind the scenes and use Kakashi, the person who knew Uchiha Obito’s identity, to cause trouble for Obito, letting everyone know Obito was still alive.
If possible, he even wanted to leak Obito’s abilities...
In this way, how could that Uchiha Obito guy compete with him, still act as a behind-the-scenes boss, and just directly knock him out of the ga with the identity of a Konoha Traitor!
Unfortunately, Hatake Kakashi wasn’t cooperating!
This white-haired guy is really annoying to talk to. Doesn’t he understand a simple truth: knowing a bit is enough, knowing too much could invite death!
Orochimaru’s eyes flashed as he looked playfully at Uehara Naraku and Kakashi, suddenly coming up with an idea. He spoke from the side, "Kakashi-kun, need to introduce a bit?"
"Nobody takes you for a mute if you don’t talk!"
Uehara Naraku coldly interrupted Orochimaru, clapping his hands and instructing the people behind him, "You all, entertain Orochimaru well and spare his life!"
"Understood!"
"Yes, Lord Uehara!"
"Got it, kid!"
Hoshigaki Kisa and the others leaped out, each drawing their own ninja blade, surrounding Orochimaru in a triangle-shaped offensive!
"Seven-swords Ninja of the Hidden Mist..."
Orochimaru’s eyes moved back and forth observing the three Seven-swords Ninja of the Hidden Mist, unable to help but coldly laugh, "Your hands have really reached far!"
"Orochimaru’s hands reach even further."
Uehara Naraku glanced at Orochimaru, instructing Hoshigaki Kisa and the others, "Don’t let him interrupt my conversation with Mr. Kakashi."
"Yes, understood!"
Hoshigaki Kisa and Hozuki Mangetsu each brandished their ninja blades and charged first, with Momochi Zabuza following close behind with a snort!
Seeing Orochimaru being forced back by Hoshigaki Kisa and the others, Uehara Naraku looked at Kakashi and the girl beside him, speaking softly, "Mr. Kakashi, we hope for sincere mutual dealings."
"This..."
Hatake Kakashi hesitated, not knowing much, only that his friend was still alive.
The only intel he had was from Karin, who ntioned that Obito wanted to use Karin to control this boy’s life, but it had failed.
Hatake Kakashi steadied himself, adopting a negotiation posture typical of a Konoha Anbu, "Sorry, I can’t divulge information about ninjas from the village."
After saying this, Hatake Kakashi continued, "However, I can tell you that you are currently in extre danger. If you’re willing to cooperate with Konoha and tell everything, I’ll find a way to ensure your safety."
These words were very official.
Usually, Konoha ninjas would discuss like this when encountering soone seeking their help, deciding whether to assist after understanding the situation, and the outco generally went smoothly.
Unfortunately, today Kakashi t Uehara.
Uehara Naraku couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth, thinking Hatake Kakashi was trying to extract information from him with just words.
Uehara Naraku looked up at the pretentious Hatake Kakashi, coldly sneering, "But aren’t you weaker than , Konoha’s Copy Ninja..."
"I have Konoha behind ."
Hatake Kakashi’s face remained calm as he softly continued, "I know Obito has planned a sche against you. If we can cooperate, tell about yourself, and I can help you thwart his sche."
"Is that so..."
Uehara Naraku rubbed his forehead, secretly glancing at the fierce battle between Momochi Zabuza and others, feeling a strange sense of familiarity in Kakashi’s approach.
If Uehara was truly unable to counter Uchiha Obito...
If Uehara truly didn’t know Hatake Kakashi’s power...
Maybe he would have believed it.
"Really insincere, Mr. Kakashi..."
Uehara Naraku sighed in disappointnt, glancing at the girl walking out from behind Hatake Kakashi.
Because she walked to Kakashi’s side, staring directly at Uehara.
Karin’s eyes trembled slightly, intently gazing at Uehara Naraku, silently trying to invade Uehara Naraku’s mory.
This was her unique skill.
Karin could perform hand seals through her eyes and execute a Spirit Secret Technique to extract information from the target’s brain, intending to use this thod to help Hatake Kakashi.
Unfortunately, she picked the wrong person.
The next mont, Uehara Naraku suddenly sprang up, landing a swift punch on Karin’s abdon, sending the girl attempting eye-hand seals flying!
Hatake Kakashi drew a kunai, intercepting Uehara Naraku’s next move, "Hey, what’s the aning of this?"
"You should ask her that."
Uehara Naraku ignored Kakashi’s kunai, pointing at Karin lying on the ground coldly, "Mr. Kakashi, your companion’s gaze wasn’t right..."
Karin retorted, "I didn’t..."
"Shut up!"
Uehara Naraku interrupted Karin, his eyes cold as he said, "Do you think I don’t understand the technique of performing hand seals with eyes?"
After speaking, Uehara Naraku blinked sharply, causing his eyelashes to quiver slightly, and a massive wave surged from under his feet, rushing toward Hatake Kakashi and Karin’s position!
This was his Water Release Skill: Roaring Wave!
"Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"
Hatake Kakashi leaped to Karin’s side, forming hand seals to conjure an earthen wall in front of them.
The wall was carved with a comically cute dog face.
However, the tidal waves under Uehara’s feet rose fiercely, surging rapidly and smashing through the earth wall, sweeping Hatake Kakashi and Karin afar!
Uehara Naraku stared at the distant Kakashi and Karin washed away by the waves, coldly saying, "See? Do you think you’re the only one in the Ninja World who can perform hand seals with eyes?"
"..."
Yet Karin, who was swept away by the Roaring Wave, had no ti to respond, as she and Hatake Kakashi were swept away by the waves!
Wave after wave kept crashing against their bodies!
Until Hatake Kakashi and Karin were washed into the forest, clinging tightly to a big tree, they finally managed to steady themselves.
Uehara Naraku’s body floated up out of nowhere, slowly flying over to Kakashi and Karin, speaking disdainfully, "Do you think I don’t know how to perform hand seals with my eyes?"
Uehara landed his body, reaching out to grasp Karin’s cheek, continuing coldly, "Idiot, daring to display your techniques before , trying to probe my mory. Who do you think you are, woman?"
"Mmm..."
Karin’s lips puckered from his grip, making her look sowhat cute.
Nearby Hatake Kakashi, worried about Karin’s safety, quickly rushed over, trying to rescue Karin from Uehara’s grasp.
Uehara Naraku lowered his hand, quickly grabbing Karin’s throat first, coldly gazing at Hatake Kakashi, "Mr. Kakashi, it seems we don’t need to continue talking..."
