Chapter 173 A Simple Drama
As the first twelve-year-old jonin in history, Hatake Kakashi has become a signature figure. Unlike Rin Nohara who was placed in Konoha, Kakashi is still active on the battlefield.

The name of Sharingan Kakashi gradually spread in the ninja world.

On this day, Kakashi received a mission and after confirming with his teammates that his ninja tools and supplies were ready, he left the camp.

When leaving the camp, Hatake Kakashi also saw several teams sent by the Uchiha clan.

Although the Mist Ninja is more restrained than the Uchiha.

But with the power of the Sharingan, the Uchiha clan's ninjas can fight any opponent.

Among the group of people, the only one he recognized was Uchiha Shisui.

A few days ago, when he was negotiating with Minato Namikaze about Obito's Sharingan, he also saw this famous genius of the Uchiha clan.

At such a young age, he already has three magatama, so he is quite powerful.

After leaving the camp, the two men headed westwards towards the camp. Their patrol area was in a jungle.

Kakashi Hatake looked at the complex terrain and felt something was wrong. It was too easy to hide in such an environment, and most of the Kirigakure ninjas were skilled in assassination.

Kakashi obviously understood this as well, so he did not move very fast, and asked Hinata Mingjing to open his Byakugan to be alert to the surroundings along the way.

Not far from them, Luo Hao was quietly watching them move forward cautiously.

But neither Kakashi's Sharingan nor Hinata Mingjing's Byakugan noticed Luo Hao.

No, it should be said that they have seen Luo Hao, but subconsciously ignored him in their minds, just like the plants and trees, blending into nature.

At this moment, Luo Hao seemed to be one with the heaven and earth. His every move was full of charm, and his breath was blended with the natural energy. Unless he wanted to, people who were not practitioners of immortal arts would generally not be able to discover his trace.

"It has begun!" Luo Hao looked up. After practicing the unity of man and nature, he could perceive everything within a radius of a thousand miles.

The two of them patrolled slowly in the jungle. In order to allow Hinata Mingjing to retain enough chakra, they would stop to rest every once in a while to allow Hinata Mingjing to recover his chakra.

But even with the help of Byakugan, they still got into a bad situation.

"Be careful, there are enemies!"

The thick fog gradually rising in front of him made Kakashi Hatake realize that something was wrong.

In the Byakugan's field of vision, the surrounding fog was attached with chakra, making the Byakugan unable to detect and see clearly.

A Mist Hidden Technique of this scale is obviously not something that can be performed by a single ninja.

The two of them subconsciously turned their backs to each other and looked around vigilantly. Kakashi was the first to ask Hinata Mingjing.

"Mingjing, have you discovered the enemy's position?"

Hinata Mingjing's Byakugan had been pushed to its limit, but the high concentration of chakra in the mist made it impossible for him to confirm the enemy's position.

"No, the chakra in the mist blocks my vision. Where is your Sharingan?" Hinata Mingjing shook his head with his back to Kakashi.

Kakashi, who had pulled up his forehead guard to reveal his Sharingan, was also unable to find the enemy through the mist: "No, the chakra in the mist is too thick."

The moisture in the mist gathered and formed a human figure in the blink of an eye.

Kakashi Hatake, who was the first to sense the change in chakra behind him, gave a warning.

"Be careful! It's a water clone!"

As soon as the voice fell, the chakra in the figure fluctuated violently, and the water clone exploded. Kakashi grabbed Hinata Mingjing beside him and barely avoided the impact of the explosion.

The smoke caused by the explosion and the mist filled with chakra completely blocked the vision of Hatake Kakashi and Hyuga Kyou.

Hinata Mingjing's attention was also slightly distracted.

The enemy did not let go of the distraction at this moment, and the water stains scattered around also formed water clones, and judging from their attire, they were the Anbu of the Kirigakure.

All the water clones attacked Hatake Kakashi and Hyuga Akira, and for a moment it looked like both of them were overwhelmed by the water clones.

But soon, the water clones were all broken up and turned into water droplets again, scattered around. Hatake Kakashi stood in place with a ninja sword in his hand, and on the other side, Hyuga Mingjing also retracted the action of releasing the Kaiten just now.

After using his Sharingan to confirm that the puddles scattered around had no chakra attached to them, Kakashi Hatake felt relieved and looked at the Hyuga Mirror.

"How's the status?"

Hatake Kakashi knew that Kaiten was a defensive method that released chakra from acupuncture points throughout the body to resist attacks, and then used high-speed rotation of the body to spread the attacks, plus he had been using the Byakugan for so long before.

Therefore, we need to confirm the chakra consumption of Hinata Mingjing.

Hinata Mingjing exhaled, and then said: "The consumption is not very large."

Kakashi's abnormal expression slightly recovered, and he gradually calmed down, and quickly formed seals with both hands: "Wind Style, Thousand Faces Wind!"

Countless tiny wind blades swept in, blowing away the originally thick fog.

Hatake Kakashi looked at Hyuga Mingjing beside him and said, "Can we find the other party's trace now?"

Hearing this, Hinata Mingjing didn't waste any words. He formed seals with his hands and focused his vision on the direction where the fog had just receded. The other party must have left from that direction.

Soon, Hyuga Akira turned around and said to Hatake Kakashi and Kakashi, "I see, with their speed, we can still catch up with them now."

"Let's go!" Kakashi didn't waste any time. He used Lightning Chakra to stimulate his body and rushed forward like a white lightning.

Soon Kakashi caught up with them.

There were a total of four Kirigakure ninjas, all wearing Kirigakure Anbu masks on their faces.

There was not much communication between the two sides. This was a war, and since they were standing on opposite sides, one side was bound to fall.

He rushed out directly, and the Kirigakure Anbu on the opposite side cooperated very well, drew out kunai, and fought with them.

Kakashi Hatake took out a kunai from his ninja tool bag and threw it at a Kirigakure ANBU who was attacking Hinata Meikyo. Then he instantly appeared next to another Kirigakure ANBU and swung the ninja sword in his hand at the other party.

However, the momentum of Kakashi Hatake's use of Lightning Release had already made the two men alert.

So not only was the kunai dodged, but the swung ninja sword was also blocked.

Kakashi Hatake reacted quickly. As soon as his sword was blocked, he immediately turned sideways and kicked hard. Before the Mist Anbu could react to Kakashi Hatake's change of moves, they were kicked away.

Hatake Kakashi flashed to the side of Hinata Mingjing.

Kakashi Hatake made hand seals and then spurted out a huge fireball, but the Mist Village Anbu ignored it.

While forming hand seals, he said, "How stupid! Using Fire Style to attack us Kirigakure in this rainy day is just courting death."

A dragon of water immediately formed around him, extinguishing the fireball.
