"Who are you? Are you the one controlling Kakashi-sensei? Why did you target Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto roared.
The soft voice sounded again, telling everything about himself.
"In Konoha, there used to be a man named Hiruko. He has been looking forward to this day because he wants to change his destiny through the Chimera Technique, and putting the Puppet curse on Kakashi is just the beginning of his plan."
Sasuke looked around, trying to find the source of this voice, but found nothing.
The voice continued: "Hiruko was once a young friend of Konoha's Sannin, but he didn't have such outstanding Shinobi talents like them, which made him very unwilling. So, in order to make up for his lack of talent, he began to indulge in creature research, for the hope to complete the Ninjutsu that fits him, the Chimera Technique."
"When his research was going on for the most part, the Third Shinobi World War had entered its climax. At that time, a battle called The Battle of Kannabi Bridge took place. That battle was very fierce, and Hatake Kakashi returned from that battle. His return surprised Hiruko. Can you guess what happened?"
Sasuke and Naruto looked at each other and couldn't guess at all.
They don't know anything about Kakashi's past.
Seeing that the two did not answer, Hiruko continued: "Kakashi received a legacy from his dead companion, Uchiha Obito, and inherited the power of the Kekkei Genkai. That's right, it's the Sharingan!"
As Hiruko spoke, his voice became a little excited.
Sasuke and Naruto were shocked.
They all know that Kakashi owns a Sharingan.
But they never know how Kakashi got his Sharingan.
Today, they finally got the answer.
That is the legacy from his companion!
It felt like Sasuke had died and transplanted Sharingan to Naruto.
Just thinking about it, both Naruto and Sasuke felt a little uncomfortable.
What's more, based on their understanding of Kakashi, what kind of mood this person who values his companions so much will be like after experiencing such a thing.
'Then... it must be painful, right?'
Hiruko didn't know what Naruto and Sasuke were thinking as he continued: "The Chimera Technique I studied originally was just to make me fuse with the flesh of creatures and make up for my own shortcomings. However, when I saw Kakashi succeeded in integrating the Sharingan, I have a bold idea! That is... a variety of Kekkei Genkai!"
Hearing this, Naruto and Sasuke were surprised again, as they felt that this man is simply a lunatic.
In the Shinobi World, it is well known that the Kekkei Genkai is an extremely mysterious genetic ability.
It is extremely difficult to use this ability if it is not for a bloodline with the Kekkei Genkai.
Especially for transplantation, as adaptability is extremely difficult, and he is more likely to be killed by the backlash of the Kekkei Genkai.
A Kekkei Genkai is already extremely difficult, but this man is thinking about multiple Kekkei Genkai.
"If I can integrate multiple Kekkei Genkai, then my talent will be greatly improved. At that time, I will be able to catch up with Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Oshemaru, however..." Hiruko said halfway through, and then his tone suddenly became a little sad and regretful.
"However, just as I put this idea into action, Sandaime Hokage discovered my research. He sent the Sannin to come and kill me! Fortunately, I was already prepared to escape. However, I need to carry out the Chimera Technique research for twenty years more before I succeed."
Hiruko said, and his words seemed to be full of satisfaction.
"No, Kakashi-sensei is gone!" Sasuke regained his senses and said at this time.
"What?" Naruto also reacted.
The eyes of the two moved quickly, and soon they found that Kakashi had almost reached the gate in the distance.
Naruto and Sasuke ran towards him.
At this time, Hiruko walked slowly from the gate.
He was short in stature, dressed in white, and bandaged over most of his body.
Kakashi walked to Hiruko's side and walked straight into the gate.
"Haha, Kakashi, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Red light flashed on Kakashi's right eye and he did not answer.
Seeing that Kakashi walk into the castle behind him, Hiruko showed a satisfied expression.
What he needs is such a Kakashi.
Naruto and Sasuke also arrived at the gate at this time.
Hiruko looked back and saw both Naruto and Sasuke with angry expressions.
When he saw Sasuke's scarlet Sharingan, Hiruko was slightly surprised.
"Oh? I didn't expect that there would be a pair of Sharingan coming here. Unfortunately, its level is not enough, otherwise, it may be a better choice."
Hearing this, Sasuke was furious, as his Sharingan was actually rejected by others as being too low-level.
But it's no wonder Hiruko said that. As Kakashi's Sharingan is Mangekyō, and Sasuke's is just three tomoe.
It is not surprising that Hiruko will choose Kakashi.
What's more, Kakashi has been Hiruko's target from a long time ago.
And Kakashi, who was under the Puppet Curse, will obviously be more cooperative.
"Well, you two should leave now. Don't hinder me."
"You bastard! I definitely won't allow you to do anything to Kakashi-sensei! Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Shadow Clone Technique)!"
Naruto formed a hand seal with both hands and ran towards Hiruko.
At this moment, dozens of shadow clones come out from behind Naruto, and moved towards Hiruko.
Sasuke didn't stay idle either, and ran quickly toward Hiruko.
Seeing that the shadow clones were about to reach him, Hiruko calmly formed hand seals with his hand.
"Ranton: Raiunkūha!" (Storm Release: Thunder Cloud Inner Wave)
A thick ring of thunderclouds emerged from Hiruko's body, completely shrouded his body, and then, blue lightning current spurted out!
The lightning current was extremely fast. In just an instant, all of Naruto's shadow clones were destroyed.
Bang bang bang, for a moment, in front of Hiruko was full of smoke when the shadow clones destroyed.
The smoke cleared, and Naruto and Sasuke rushed over at the same time!
One person has a blue ball with his right hand, and the other has a blue chidori.
Facing the combined attack of the two A-rank Ninjutsu, Hiruko just took a step back and then tore the bandage on his left hand.
A mysterious rune was printed on the palm of his left hand!
"Meiton: Kyūketsukō!" (Dark Release: Inhaling Maw)
The Chidori and Rasengan were sucked cleanly as soon as they approached the rune on Hiruko's left-hand.
'How is it possible?' Naruto and Sasuke were shocked and couldn't believe the scene in front of them.
"You are still far way. I will give it back to you! Meiton: Jajimento! (Dark Release: Judgment)"
Hiruko yelled softly, and the Rasengan and Chidori he had just absorbed appeared again in the rune on his left hand, and then launched with a bang towards the center of Naruto and Sasuke!
In an instant, the two were blasted out.
Blood spurted from the mouths of the two at the same time and they fell onto the ground.
