Naruto: My Diary Broke the Plot Chapter 12 - 12 Kakashi: What Kind of Organization Is This T

Asuma let out a cold snort. "There won't be a 'next ti.' I'll take you down right here."

Hoshigaki Kisa actually had the mood to joke. "Itachi-kun, looks like everyone in this village hates your guts."

Itachi didn't respond.

"I've heard about you too, Hoshigaki Kisa," Kurenai said, her expression tense. "You were originally a shinobi of Kirigakure. You beca a rogue ninja after being suspected of assassinating the daimyō and trying to destabilize the country. Every nation received the Water Country's wanted notice for you."

"You're both S-rank criminals on the bingo book," Asuma said grimly. "Itachi, after everything you did, you still dare step into Konoha. You've got so nerve."

"Asuma, Kurenai… pretend you didn't see ," Itachi said quietly. "I don't want to hurt you."

He ant it. He was no longer the young man he had been years ago. With his current power, these two elite jonin truly couldn't match him.

But Asuma's temper flared. What was that supposed to an?

Were two elite jonin not enough to handle him now?

Back then, when Itachi committed the clan massacre, he had only been an ordinary jonin. Even if he had grown far stronger since then, that didn't an Asuma accepted being dismissed.

"That doesn't sound like sothing soone with blood on his hands should be saying," Asuma said. "You don't look like you're here for anything good. What's your goal?"

Kisa had already lost his patience. He drew Sahada from his back and slamd it into the ground. "Enough talking. Want to take care of him?"

Itachi's voice stayed calm. "Looks like they won't let us pass. But don't go overboard. Your techniques are too conspicuous."

Hearing that was like flipping a switch inside Kisa.

"Then that settles it."

Before anyone could blink, the fight erupted. Kisa lifted Sahada and swung it downward toward Asuma with overwhelming force.

At the sa ti, Kurenai activated her genjutsu and targeted Itachi.

Asuma imdiately sensed the chasm in strength between him and this human-shaped tailed beast. Kisa was holding him back with only one hand and just the tip of Sahada. Even so, he completely overpowered Asuma, who used both hands to brace his trench knives.

Kisa wasn't even using proper leverage. His raw strength alone was monstrous.

Kakashi, watching from outside the footage, straightened. He had heard of Kisa. Among the rogue ninja of the Water Country, he was one of the strongest, on par with Uchiha Itachi. The power he showed now was… excessive.

What bothered Kakashi even more was the matching clothing and painted nails. They clearly belonged to the sa group, aning they were part of so organization.

These two alone were S-rank criminals. Each of them could serve as the kage of a smaller village without issue.

Yet they wore uniforms and worked under the banner of a single organization.

A very dangerous ssage.

Best-case scenario: only these two monsters were involved.

Worst-case scenario: there were more waiting behind them.

If this organization's "entry requirent" was being an S-rank criminal, the implications were terrifying.

"My blade, Sahada," Kisa said as he swung again. The sword's rough scales tore into Asuma's shoulder, ripping off a chunk of flesh. "It's not for cutting people. It's for shaving them."

One attack. That was all it took for Kisa to wound an elite jonin.

Asuma clutched his shoulder but forced a casual tone. "Kurenai… you're slow today."

Behind Itachi, Kurenai's image materialized. She had used a layered genjutsu and was ready to strike.

"Not good," Kakashi muttered in the real world. Using genjutsu on a Sharingan user was like trying to perform a sword trick in front of a master swordsman. Completely pointless.

Kakashi had plenty of experience with the Sharingan. He couldn't close it, and it constantly drained his chakra. But the benefits were undeniable. He had copied over a thousand jutsu with it.

And it made him immune to basic genjutsu. It let him see through illusions and even hypnotize opponents in return.

Sure enough, in the video, Kurenai trapped Kisa in an illusion. Her form then transford into a tree that wrapped around Itachi.

She appeared above him to deliver the finishing blow.

"It's over!" Kurenai shouted.

But an instant later, she realized she was the one trapped. She was bound to the tree, caught by her own genjutsu.

A jonin specialized in illusions, overwheld instantly. No, it was earlier than that. The mont she looked directly into the Sharingan, she had already fallen under its influence.

"Genjutsu of this level won't work on ," Itachi said without emotion.

Kurenai stared at him in shock.

"This is… a genjutsu rebound?"

As Itachi raised a kunai to strike her, she bit her tongue hard enough to draw blood. The pain snapped her out of the illusion just in ti.

But even though she avoided a killing blow, Itachi's kick sent her skidding across the water's surface.

"Kurenai!" Asuma yelled.

"You've got ti to worry about soone else?" Kisa grinned.

"Impressive, Kurenai. But…"

As she steadied herself on the water, Itachi moved behind her without a sound.

"But this is where it ends," a lazy voice called from nearby. "I'm talking to you."

Kakashi had arrived just in ti.
