Chapter 181 Uchiha Obito's Challenge
Chapter 181 Uchiha Obito's Challenge (th update)
"Minato-senpai, why don't you see Kakashi and the others?"
Hanekawa asked after Tsunade and Namikaze Minato finished talking.
Upon hearing this, Nohara Lin subconsciously looked at him with a concerned expression.
"They are out on a mission, led by Kakashi, with Obito and Gai as team members."
Namikaze Minato explained with a smile.
"No wonder."
Hanekawa remembered that the current Hatake Kakashi is a special jonin and is qualified to lead the team.
"As expected of Kakashi, he can now handle things on his own."
Nohara Lin breathed a sigh of relief.
She thought something had happened to the three of them.
"Kakashi really helped me a lot."
Namikaze Minato nodded and said.
What Hanekawa can be sure of now is that Hatake Kakashi became a special jonin just to help his teacher teach his students.
But this is also a helpless move.
Minato Namikaze possesses the Flying Thunder God Technique and can act as a firefighter everywhere.
But with three students, the pressure of Flying Thunder God Technique would be too great and inconvenient, and he also had to take their safety into consideration.
After all, he went to rescue the most urgent and dangerous places on the battlefield.
"Watergate."
Aburame Shiwei stepped forward and said, "Tsunade-sama has notified you to attend a meeting at the main tent."
"Come right away."
Namikaze Minato responded, then looked at Hanekawa and the other two and reminded them, "Kakashi and the others should be back soon."
He said and followed Aburame Shiwei to the main tent.
"I'm going to the meeting too."
Hanekawa thought for a moment and said.
Intelligence and the like still had to be heard in person to avoid missing anything.
And with him around, combined with the original plot, he can also provide better advice to Tsunade.
"Go ahead."
Xiurihong has already gotten used to it.
"We can just wait here for Kakashi and the others."
Nohara Lin said softly.
"Ah."
Hanekawa walked into the main tent.
Some people gave him surprised looks, but considering that he had killed Kurisai Kushimaru, it made sense for him to attend the Jonin Council.
The jonin who had fought alongside him in River Country before took the initiative to greet him.
Sure enough, it is easiest to forge friendships during war.
Hanekawa felt that if he fought a few more battles, he would become familiar to most of the ninjas.
This will be very helpful for his future competition for Hokage.
"teacher."
Hanekawa walked in front of Tsunade.
"Ah."
Tsunade looked at the map of the Land of Grass and responded without even looking up.
Hanekawa lowered her gaze to the map in front of her.
The Grass Kingdom, as its name suggests, a large part of the map is endless grassland.
Only when they got to the part where they were fighting did they see a lot of complex terrain such as mountains.
Hanekawa's heart moved.
He saw the Kannabi Bridge marked on the map.
No wonder it's important.
The location of this bridge is already at the rear of the Iwagakure ninja army.
In the original work, it was Minato Namikaze and Kakashi Hatake who destroyed the bridge and won the war.
Outside the main tent, Nohara Lin and Yuhi Kurenai were chatting.
Ten minutes later, the sound of breaking wind was heard.
Uchiha Obito appeared in front of Nohara Rin and Yuhi Kurenai using the instant body technique.
"Obito."
Nohara Lin greeted with a gentle look on her face.
"How did you come?"
Uchiha Obito asked excitedly, "How long will you stay this time?"
"We came here to support you this time. We should stay until we defeat the Iwagakure Village."
Nohara Lin thought about it and explained.
"Great!"
Uchiha Obito said excitedly, "We can do missions together again!"
"Lin, Hong."
Hatake Kakashi, who arrived late, greeted him calmly.
Compared to Uchiha Obito, his emotions are very stable.
“Seeing you, I feel my youth is burning again!”
Might Guy gave a thumbs up, showing his shining teeth.
"You really haven't changed at all."
Xihihong curled the corner of her mouth and said.
"Kakashi, congratulations on becoming a special jonin."
Nohara Lin nodded slightly and said with a smile.
"Thank you."
Hatake Kakashi said.
"I'm just a little bit away from becoming a special jonin!"
Uchiha Obito said unwillingly.
Nohara Lin seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.
She actually didn't really believe that Uchiha Obito could reach the level of a special jonin.
"Obito has made great progress recently."
Hatake Kakashi paused and said, "But he only knows Fire Style, so he can't be rated as a special jonin."
Special jonin refers to ninjas who have talents in certain areas.
Fire Style and Sharingan are not included.
Under normal circumstances, Uchiha Obito can only be evaluated as a jonin.
Nohara Lin couldn't help but be a little surprised when she heard this.
Because Kakashi Hatake never tells lies.
"My current Fire Style is no worse than that of an average Jonin!"
Uchiha Obito noticed Nohara Rin's expression and said with great pride.
After he received careful instruction from the mysterious old man, his Sharingan and Fire Style improved by leaps and bounds.
Of course, he boasted in front of Nohara Lin.
If he used his full strength and advanced fire ninjutsu, he might be able to barely reach the level of a jonin.
In general, his current strength is between Jonin and Chunin.
"Isn't Hanekawa here?"
Hatake Kakashi looked around, somewhat confused.
Uchiha Obito suddenly had something in his heart and couldn't help but look at Nohara Rin.
If he hadn’t come, it would have been a double blessing!
"He went to the main account for a meeting."
Xihi Kurenai pointed to the big tent not far away.
"Has he become a jonin?"
Matt Guy immediately became excited upon hearing this and couldn't help but ask.
"Hekawa killed Kurisai Kushimaru, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and it is normal for him to become a jonin."
Hatake Kakashi wasn't surprised at all.
Although they have been in the Land of Grass, they have naturally heard of such major events as the demise of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist Village.
At that time, everyone felt that Hanekawa's achievements were incredible, until Namikaze Minato brought information from Konoha Village, they dared to be sure.
"Maybe he got lucky and ran into a seriously injured Kurisai Kushimaru."
Uchiha Obito muttered.
"Don't talk nonsense, Obito."
Nohara Lin said in a serious tone, "Hekawa killed several jonin in the headquarters of the Hidden Mist Village."
"I……"
Uchiha Obito was suddenly stunned.
It was the first time he saw Nohara Lin's reaction like this, and for a moment, he seemed a little at a loss.
"Hanekawa hasn't become a jonin yet."
Xihi Kurenai shook her head and said.
"I will definitely become a jonin before him!"
Uchiha Obito came to his senses and clenched his fists and said.
His improved strength gave him great confidence.
Nohara Rin ignored his words.
In her opinion, no matter how hard Uchiha Obito tried, he would never be able to catch up with Hanekawa.
"..."
Uchiha Obito found that no one paid attention to him, and he was so angry that he vomited blood.
Even the usually gentle Nohara Rin refused to agree with him.
Damn Hanekawa!
Uchiha Obito gritted his teeth and wished he could beat him up right now.
and many more.
Since he has come to the camp, can't I just defeat him?
It's not like he hasn't killed a jonin before. Just yesterday, he and Hatake Kakashi teamed up to kill a jonin from the Hidden Rock Village.
Moreover, he was confident that his current Fire Style was definitely far superior to Hanekawa.
After all, the mysterious old man is really amazing.
"What mission did you go on?"
Yuhi Kurenai asked curiously.
"Before the Iwagakure Village suddenly retreated, Minato-sensei sent us to follow them to prevent any tricks."
Hatake Kakashi replied.
"They must have been scared away by us!"
Xi Ri Hong raised her chin slightly and said with a smile.
"Now that you are here, we will have enough manpower and won't be so busy."
Hatake Kakashi nodded and said, "We have been fighting these past two days and have had no time to rest."
Because Hatake Sakumo is not dead, he is not like in the original work, a killing machine who desperately carries out his mission.
"It's been hard work, luckily you're all okay."
Nohara Lin said softly.
"It's not hard work!"
Uchiha Obito suddenly said with a silly smile.
Just then, footsteps sounded.
"They've dispersed!"
Yuhi's ruby eyes searched the crowd and soon spotted Hanekawa.
She waved to him quickly.
"Kakashi."
Namikaze Minato shouted.
"I'll go first."
Hatake Kakashi greeted Kurenai Yuhi and the others, then immediately walked forward.
"What's going on in Iwagakure Village?"
Namikaze Minato asked.
"They moved their base camp."
Hatake Kakashi paused and added, "It's about five kilometers back from the previous base camp."
"Something strange."
Namikaze Minato pondered and said, "They have been attacking fiercely these past two days, and they seem very impatient."
"Perhaps it's because Tsunade-sama's arrival makes them feel invincible."
Hatake Kakashi guessed.
"Not like."
Namikaze Minato shook his head and said, "Because we don't have an absolute advantage in numbers."
Tsunade suddenly glanced at Hanekawa.
Could it be that this little kid really guessed it right?
The Iwagakure Village pretended to attack the Konoha Village, mainly to buy time and then confuse the Kumogakure Village.
"No matter what the Iwagakure Village wants to do, we can't let them set foot in the Land of Fire."
Tsunade gathered her thoughts and said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
Namikaze Minato responded immediately.
"You guys go down and rest. We'll start the mission tomorrow."
Tsunade waved her hand and headed towards the tent that had been prepared for her.
"Long time no see, everyone."
Hanekawa came in front of Hatake Kakashi, Might Guy and Uchiha Obito and said with a smile.
"Hanekawa!"
Matt Kai couldn't help but ask, "Want a youth showdown?"
"You spar with me first!"
Uchiha Obito stretched out his hand and stopped Might Guy.
"Obito, Hanekawa has been traveling all morning, it's not appropriate to spar now."
Nohara Lin looked at him subconsciously.
Uchiha Obito felt a pain in his heart.
Lin, why have you become like this?
"can."
Hanekawa agreed.
It doesn’t take too much time to fight a battle, and what if you get new entries?
Especially his C-rank item 'Fire-breathing Baby' has not been upgraded for a long time.
When he defeated Mei Terumi before, his C-rank item 'A Lot of Water' was upgraded to B-rank.
The effect is that the water escape talent is increased by 150% on the original basis.
I don’t know if the current Uchiha Obito can upgrade him.
Hanekawa guessed that in order to upgrade the entry, one would have to have a strength that was stronger than a Chunin and close to a Jonin.
"Be careful, just stop when you're done."
Seeing that Hanekawa had agreed, Nohara Lin reminded her.
Uchiha Obito felt even more unhappy.
Lin, why are you so obedient in front of him?
"please."
Hanekawa stood in front of Uchiha Obito and made the seal of opposition.
A flash of scarlet color passed by.
Uchiha Obito directly opened his Sharingan, and two black magatama appeared.
This was to prevent him from falling into Hanekawa's illusion at the very beginning.
Art fire escape ho fireball!
Uchiha Obito took the lead in launching the attack without hesitation.
A huge fireball burst out of his mouth.
A burning breath filled the air.
Nohara Lin was in the range of the fireball and suddenly felt a burst of heat.
Only then did she realize that what Kakashi Hatake had said before was not an exaggeration at all.
Xiurihong was a little surprised.
Uchiha Obito's strength has indeed increased a lot.
But compared to Hanekawa, it's still too slow.
Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!
Facing the fierce fireball, Hanekawa stood where he was, making seals with his hands.
A wall of water rose up, blocking the fireball.
The collision of water and fire immediately produced a large amount of fog.
Uchiha Obito was not surprised. He certainly knew that the Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique could not defeat Hanekawa.
His purpose was simple, which was to create fog.
Although the Sharingan will be affected in the fog, it can see more clearly than ordinary eyes.
Instantaneous technique!
Uchiha Obito's body disappeared in an instant.
He took advantage of the fog and appeared behind Hanekawa.
Fire Escape·Dragon Fire Technique!
Uchiha Obito looked at Hanekawa who had no reaction, snorted coldly, and formed seals with his hands.
The straight flame was like a fire dragon, fast and sharp, crossing a distance of several meters in an instant.
But just as it was about to hit Hanekawa, a water dragon appeared out of nowhere and bit the fire dragon.
More mist emerged and the fire dragon was extinguished in an instant.
Uchiha Obito couldn't help but widen his eyes.
How did Hanekawa know his location?
At this moment, a dragon head suddenly rose from the ground where he was standing.
"what?"
Uchiha Obito was startled and quickly used the instant body movement technique to escape, avoiding the mud bullets spit out by the earth dragon.
Bang!
Uchiha Obito crashed into an earth wall.
He was dumbfounded.
When did this earth wall appear? How could Hanekawa calculate the path of his instant body technique?
"hateful!"
Uchiha Obito shook his head and formed seals with his hands again.
Fire Release: Impatiens flower claws are red!
He breathed out flames and threw shurikens at the same time.
The flames attacked Hanekawa from all directions like Impatiens seeds.
Uchiha Obito's eyes narrowed.
This is a B-level fire ninjutsu with a dual attack. Many people only see the flames and ignore the shuriken.
During the two days of fighting, he used this fire escape technique to deceive many Iwagakure ninjas.
Water Style: Water Bullet!
Hanekawa still stood there.
Balls of water bombs flew out and hit the shuriken wrapped in flames with great accuracy.
"how is this possible?"
Uchiha Obito's body shook.
The sound of breaking wind sounded.
He looked up subconsciously and saw a pile of clay falling from the sky.
Uchiha Obito quickly stepped back, but immediately hit a wall of earth.
Art fire escape ho fireball!
He quickly spit out a fireball, blowing up the earth wall.
But he had just taken two steps when the ground turned into a huge swamp.
Uchiha Obito's body sank.
He couldn't help but be shocked. What kind of ninjutsu is this?
Uchiha Obito was about to leave when he suddenly heard thunder.
He looked up and saw Hanekawa pressing the ground.
Lightning spread along the swamp and submerged him.
Uchiha Obito screamed twice and then was knocked unconscious by the electric shock.
