Chapter 310 The Power of the Transparent World

Inuzuka Midori lay on the ground, with the immobile Nara Shiosui on her back, secured by ropes made of parasitic insects to prevent him from falling.

Just like that, Inuzuka Midori, using both hands and feet, ran towards Akami Hideyuki with Nara Shiosui.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!

Nara Shiosui threw the Shuriken in his hand towards Akami Hideyuki.

However, because Nara Shiosui’s posture was a bit awkward at the moment and he couldn’t exert much force, the Shuriken were very crooked, and Akami Hideyuki, standing still, avoided all of them.

“Water Clone Jutsu!”

Akami Hideyuki created a Water Clone, preparing to have the Water Clone deal with Nara Shiosui, as getting caught by the Shadow Imitation Technique would indeed be very troublesome.

“I must learn Ninjutsu that counters Water Release from Muzuki-sensei!” Obito, who was fighting extremely frustratingly, roared inwardly.

He was truly tormented enough by Water Release; when Akami Hideyuki released large-scale Water Release, he had no way to launch an effective Fire Release attack.

Originally, he felt that his current state was very good, and using Fire Release felt very smooth and natural, but he was so disgusted by Akami Hideyuki’s Water Release that he only wanted to use Taijutsu, yet he couldn’t beat Akami Hideyuki in Taijutsu.

Obito didn’t know how he could win the battle; Might Guy and Kakashi were already exhausted, Rin Nohara’s last Chakra was used to heal him, and he had now lost his combat ability, while Shiranui Genma and Ebisu were severely injured.

The only way to break the deadlock now was surprisingly those few severely injured Konoha Ninja they had saved earlier.

A Water Clone only has one-tenth of the main body’s strength, and its strength will increase in water, but even with this one-tenth strength, the Water Clone sent Inuzuka Midori scrambling everywhere.

Normally, Inuzuka Midori would have confronted this Water Clone, but she was injured and carrying Nara Shiosui, so she couldn’t fight at all and could only flee in a disheveled manner, looking for an opportunity.

When the distance was close enough, the parasitic insect ropes on Nara Shiosui’s body disintegrated and rushed towards the Water Clone.

Inuzuka Midori took this opportunity to directly throw Shiosui from her back towards the area near Akami Hideyuki.

Nara Shiosui swiftly formed hand signs in mid-air, looking as if he was about to use Ninjutsu.

The Water Clone wanted to attack Nara Shiosui, but Inuzuka Midori directly tackled it.

Akami Hideyuki’s main body noticed this scene and immediately forced the injured Obito back, then unleashed a thick water pillar at Nara Shiosui, to prevent himself from being controlled by the Shadow Imitation Technique.

However, what Akami Hideyuki didn’t expect was that after the Water Release hit, Nara Shiosui first transformed into Inuzuka Midori, and then disappeared in a puff of white smoke.

“Haha, isn’t Midori’s acting good? I even used Shiosui’s hand signs exactly the same,” Inuzuka Midori said with a proud laugh.

The Water Clone angrily slammed Inuzuka Midori to the ground.

Akami Hideyuki’s main body also instantly changed his expression and tried to use Water Instant Body to leave his spot, but as early as he turned to attack Inuzuka Midori’s Shadow Clone, Nara Shiosui had already changed back into human form from a Shuriken, rapidly forming hand signs to use Ninjutsu.

“Shadow Imitation Technique!”

Because the two were very close, Nara Shiosui’s shadow quickly connected to Akami Hideyuki’s shadow, so Akami Hideyuki also lay on the ground under the control of the Shadow Imitation Technique.

The Water Clone wanted to go help its main body, but Inuzuka Midori held onto the Water Clone’s leg tightly, preventing it from moving; the Water Clone kicked Inuzuka Midori with all its might, making her vomit blood, but she still didn’t let go; it was only after the second kick knocked Inuzuka Midori unconscious that the Water Clone was able to break free and rapidly approach its main body.

“Quickly use your fastest Ninjutsu, I can’t control him for long!” Nara Shiosui shouted loudly, the Shadow Imitation Technique consumes a lot of Chakra, and he didn’t have much Chakra to begin with, plus Akami Hideyuki was stronger than him, so the time he could control him was very short.

“Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!” Obito had originally planned to use the Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique, which has great power and low consumption, but upon hearing Nara Shiosui’s words, he immediately used the Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique, forming one hand sign and spitting out more than ten small fireballs towards Akami Hideyuki.

When the fireballs were only fifty centimeters from Akami Hideyuki, Nara Shiosui, due to Chakra exhaustion, lost control of Akami Hideyuki.

Boom!

The dazzling Jonin Hikari from the exploding fireballs enveloped the area around Akami Hideyuki; Nara Shiosui, who was close by, instinctively squinted his eyes, but he couldn’t see through the Jonin Hikari to tell if Akami Hideyuki had been killed.

Obito, with his Sharingan, could see more; he immediately pulled Shiosui and retreated quickly.

The dazzling Jonin Hikari came and went quickly, and soon Akami Hideyuki, with burn marks on his body, appeared standing before them.

Just now, he didn’t even have time to stand up and crawled away at the fastest speed, letting the rushing Water Clone take part of the attack for him, and thus survived.

“Damn it, if only I had more Chakra.” Nara Shiosui clenched his fists; even he, who was usually calm, couldn’t remain calm any longer, because it was truly just a little bit more, if he could have held on for two more seconds, Akami Hideyuki might not have survived.

“You guys are really something, you almost actually killed me.” Akami Hideyuki showed a hideous smile, gripping his short sword and charging towards Nara Shiosui.

Obito placed Shiosui to the side and charged forward alone to fight Akami Hideyuki.

Obito hadn’t recovered much Chakra to begin with, and fighting to this point, to maintain his Sharingan and Breathing Technique, Obito didn’t dare to use Ninjutsu anymore, at most adding some flames to his fists.

So even with Akami Hideyuki injured and his state declining, Obito was still at a clear disadvantage.

“Did even that fail?” Kakashi, leaning against a tree, sighed.

Just now, the cooperation of Nara Shiosui’s team was so impressive that even he found it wonderful, to be able to achieve such a battle result in this state.

Watching Obito fight alone, Kakashi felt very uneasy.

It was much the same that time in the Land of Rivers; Might Guy erupted and quickly dealt with the Chunin, then Obito awakened his Sharingan and teamed up with Might Guy to deal with the Jonin, and he only made a final strike.

Kakashi was very unwilling; he was clearly considered a genius in everyone’s eyes, an unmatchable genius, yet now he could only rely on his comrades to turn the tide.

Kakashi didn’t want to be that kind of person; he wanted to be the one who turned the tide, because he was the genius acknowledged by everyone!

Obito’s wounds were increasing, and excessive bleeding further led to Obito’s condition deteriorating, the scales of victory seemed to be completely tipping towards Akami Hideyuki.

Kakashi took a step towards Akami Hideyuki, and various parts of his body warned Kakashi with pain.

Kakashi ignored the pain in his body and took another step; this time he tried to enter the state of Thunder Breathing, perhaps having rested for a few minutes and recovered some stamina, he succeeded.

With the enhancement of the Breathing Technique, Kakashi’s steps quickened slightly.

Kakashi tried his best to concentrate his breathing; ordinary breathing couldn’t provide him much help in a battle of this intensity.

He didn’t know if it was his severe injuries causing Kakashi to hallucinate or something else, but he seemed to feel that his breathing was even more concentrated than before.

Kakashi didn’t think about this problem; he just kept concentrating his breathing, reaching the limit he could achieve, nothing more.

Because his breathing became more and more concentrated, Kakashi’s steps quickened even more.

Kakashi’s undisguised actions naturally couldn’t escape Akami Hideyuki’s notice, but he didn’t care; a normal nine-year-old child running could outpace Kakashi’s current speed by several streets, what was there to fear about such a weak appearance?

When Kakashi walked to within fifty meters of Akami Hideyuki, Kakashi tightened his grip on the White Fang Short Blade in his hand; he suddenly felt that his strength was very strong now.

When he reached forty meters, Kakashi’s breathing continued to change; at this point, Kakashi felt that the world before his eyes suddenly became much clearer.

When he reached thirty meters, this clear feeling became more and more obvious; Kakashi could even vaguely see Akami Hideyuki’s body muscles.

This reminded Kakashi of his memories from training before.

He was troubled by the problem of being unable to react to his own speed, and he hadn’t solved it even now.

Muzuki had given two radical solutions: one was the ultimate mastery of Breathing Technique, the Transparent World, and the other was Lightning Release Chakra Nature Transformation to strengthen reaction nerves.

“If one day a transparent feeling appears in your mind, and you can see and control every muscle and every blood vessel in your body, then you have entered the state of Transparent World.” Kakashi recalled Muzuki’s description of the Transparent World, and accompanied by a sense of emptiness, Kakashi saw it.

He saw his muscles, he saw his bones, he saw his blood vessels, he saw everything in his body.

Not only could he see, but he could also control, and instantly he understood how much strength his former self had wasted when attacking.

“So, this is the Transparent World.” Kakashi muttered as he continuously approached Akami Hideyuki.

When he was only ten meters away from Akami Hideyuki, Kakashi also saw everything on Akami Hideyuki’s body.

Only now did Kakashi understand how powerful the Breathing Technique Muzuki had taught them truly was; it was a miraculous power that could not be described in words.

“When practicing the sword, remember two points: speed must be fast enough, and strength must be sufficient; condense all your strength into one point to attack.”

Then Kakashi also recalled his father Sakumo Hatake’s memory of teaching him swordsmanship.

At this moment, Kakashi was only six meters away from Akami Hideyuki.

Although he didn’t think the current Kakashi still had any strength, he was still a Ninja to some extent, so Akami Hideyuki was still cautious, temporarily giving up on the severely injured Obito, and slashing at the approaching Kakashi with his short sword.

“Kakashi, move! You’re already like this, just lie down!” Obito shouted anxiously.

When Kakashi started walking over, he had already shouted at Kakashi not to come, but Kakashi ignored his words and continued walking this way as if he was under a Genjutsu.

“Father, Muzuki-sensei, thank you.” Kakashi didn’t pay attention to the attacking Akami Hideyuki, but thanked Muzuki and Sakumo in his heart.

Because it was they who gave Kakashi the power to change everything.

“Die!” Akami Hideyuki used Body Flicker Technique to flash in front of Kakashi, thrusting his short sword towards Kakashi’s chest.

Swish!

A white light flashed.

Clatter.

Akami Hideyuki’s short sword, along with his arm, broke into two pieces; Akami Hideyuki showed an expression of horror and confusion, he actually didn’t see how Kakashi swung his sword.

The next moment, intense pain came, and Akami Hideyuki’s body broke into two pieces before he could say any last words.

“Kakashi, you…” Obito looked at this scene in shock; the powerful Jonin who had made everyone struggle was actually instantly killed by Kakashi with one strike, was this Muzuki Sage possessing him?

“I am the genius Kakashi.” Leaving such a sentence, Kakashi collapsed.
