Become the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

Kado, the most wealthy businessman in the ninja world, is the master behind the Wave Country.

By monopolizing transportation, he dominated all the wealth of the Wave Country, making the people here live in dire straits and become slaves of Cardo in disguise.

In order to change this situation, the people of the Wave Country raised money to build a bridge connecting to the outside world to change the fate of being enslaved by Cardo.

Dazna returned to the Wave Country this time to preside over the construction of the bridge.

The construction of the bridge would break Cardo's monopoly, so Dazna was targeted by Cardo and sent ninjas to assassinate him.

Due to the shortage of funds, Dazna was reluctant to issue high-level commissions and could only issue C-level tasks.

If the Konoha Ninja Village gave up protecting Dazna this time, not only would Dazna die at the hands of Cardo, but the people of the Wave Country would also be exploited by Cardo and would never see the hope of turning over.

After listening to Dazna's speech of moral kidnapping, Kakashi and others fell silent.

Naruto and Sasuke are thinking about whether to help Dazna. Naruto wants to establish his image of the Will of Fire by saving the Land of Waves, and Sasuke wants to encounter more enemies and improve his strength through actual combat.

Kakashi thinks more, and he finally understands why the Sandaime agreed to Dazna's commission.

Their mission this time is not to escort Dazna at all, but to help Dazna and the people of the Land of Waves solve the problem of Kado.

If Team 7 can defeat Kado, not only can the Land of Waves get close to Konoha, but they can even take advantage of Kado's wealth, which is an astonishing amount of wealth.

After thinking for a while, Kakashi said with an embarrassed look:

"Mr. Dazna, in principle, you issued the wrong commission and almost put us in danger. We should immediately terminate this mission and return to the village."

"But considering the difficulties faced by the people of Wave Country, we can also let them off."

"In this way, as long as my subordinates agree to continue the mission, we will fulfill our promise and escort you to Wave Country."

Hearing this, Dazna was delighted and immediately played the emotional card with Naruto and Sasuke.

Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other and then agreed to continue the mission. Seeing that everyone agreed to continue the mission, Sakura also nodded in agreement.

After resuming the mission, several people did not set off immediately.

Instead, they set their sights on the two wandering ninjas, wanting to collect information from them.

Sasuke stepped forward, opened his Sharingan, used the Sharingan illusion, and soon obtained a lot of information from the two wandering ninjas.

The true identity of these two wandering ninjas is the defected Mist Shadow, and their former position was Chunin.

After hearing the news, Kakashi, Naruto, and Sasuke did not react much, but Sakura was shocked.

She thought it was exaggerated that Naruto and Sasuke had the strength of Chunin, but she did not expect that they could kill Chunin in seconds.

Doesn't this mean that Naruto and Sasuke, who were in the same period as her, are likely to be close to Jonin in strength? With such a big gap between people, won't she never be able to catch up?

And the one who sent the wanderer to assassinate Dazna was none other than the wealthy Cardo.

In addition to these two Chunin-strength rebels, Cardo also contacted many famous rebels on the black market, with the purpose of preventing Dazna from returning to the Land of Waves.

Kakashi and others were not surprised that Cardo was the mastermind behind the scenes.

On the contrary, the fact that Cardo hired more black market ninjas aroused Kakashi's vigilance. As an ordinary person, Cardo was not a big danger to Team 7, but the rebels were different.

Most of the black market ninjas are ninjas from small ninja villages and rebels, and there are many dangerous S-level rebels among them.

If Cardo hired dangerous rebel ninjas like Kakuzu and Orochimaru, the entire Team 7 would not be able to defeat them.

However, a ninja of Orochimaru's level should not look down on Cardo and would not be Cardo's subordinate.

After learning about Cardo's situation, Kakashi casually killed two stray ninjas. These two stray ninjas should have been sent to Kirigakure or taken back to the village, but they were still on a mission and had no time at all.

The scene of Kakashi killing people shocked Dazna, who couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

On the subsequent journey, Dazna, who was originally stubborn and arrogant, became much more honest and began to take the initiative to build a good relationship with Naruto and Sasuke.

However, Naruto, looking at Dazna's back, had many doubts about the construction of the bridge in the Land of Waves.

Naruto is not a simple hot-blooded boy. After knowing his identity, he read a lot of books. Common sense told him that even if the Land of Waves built a bridge, the Land of Waves could not escape the fate of being ruled by Cardo.

Cardo can control all external transportation, and it is also very simple to control a bridge.

At worst, Cardo can let Dazna build the bridge. When the bridge is open to traffic, it will not be difficult to destroy it, and he can still maintain his ruling position.

At this time, Naruto suddenly remembered something and instantly understood Dazna's intention.

The significance of Dazna building the bridge is not only to go with the outside world, but also to break the myth of Cardo and let the people of Wave Country think that Cardo is not a "god".

And the construction is not to escape the fate of being enslaved by Cardo, aren't they here?

For the people of Wave Country, Cardo is indeed a god who rules everything. For the third generation old man, no matter how rich Cardo is, he is just a lamb to be slaughtered.

If there were any problems between himself and Sasuke in the Land of Waves, Cardo would die violently.

After thinking of this, Naruto had to admire the methods of the third generation old man. If he had not encountered Black Zetsu and learned to think independently, he would definitely have carried out the task stupidly this time.

…

After a few more days, Team 7 finally arrived on the eastern coast of the Country of Fire.

Smelling the salty sea breeze, Kakashi and others looked at the misty island on the other side of the sea and the concrete bridge connecting the coast and the island.

Most of this several-kilometer-long bridge has been built from the direction of the Fire Country.

It only needs to be built a few dozen meters more to be completely completed, connecting the Country of Fire and the Country of Waves, and breaking Cardo's monopoly.

After sighing, several people looked at Dazna and thought about ways to pass through the strait.

They are all ninjas and can walk directly to the other side by treading water, but Dazna is just an ordinary person, and it is not realistic to swim to the other side.

Just when Kakashi and others were struggling, a thick fog suddenly appeared on the sea.

Then a small boat pulled out of the thick fog and came to Kakashi and others. The ferryman asked cautiously: "Are they Ninja-sama and Mr. Dazuna?"

Tatsuna nodded and gave Kakashi a show-off expression.

When he was in Konoha Ninja Village, he was a poor country bumpkin, but in his hometown, he was a hero who dared to resist Cardo and build a bridge.

At this moment, with a surge of waves, the boat was directly overturned by the huge waves.

Two figures walked out of the thick fog and stopped in front of the coastline. They first glanced at the mission target, Tazuna, and then their eyes fell on Kakashi and others.

After discovering Kakashi's figure, one of them looked a little complicated and said in a faint tone: "Captain Kakashi, I didn't expect us to meet again!"

After seeing this man's figure, Sasuke gritted his teeth, raised his kunai and rushed over.

Because the ninja in front of him was none other than his brother Uchiha Itachi, the culprit who caused the Uchiha clan to disappear overnight.

Kakashi stretched out his hand to stop Sasuke: "Sasuke, don't be impulsive, you are no match for him."

Sasuke also knew that he was no match for Uchiha Itachi, but the man who wanted the sword did not change his eyes at all and locked onto Uchiha Itachi.

Naruto looked at the tall body like an iron tower beside him. The other person had a shark face and looked very powerful. His intuition also told him that the other person was very strong.

After glancing at Uchiha Itachi and Kisame, Kakashi's face turned gloomy.

He was worried before that Cardo would hire a strong man like Orochimaru. Unexpectedly, Cardo did not hire Orochimaru, but instead hired Uchiha Itachi and Kisame.

Needless to say, Uchiha Itachi's strength, Mangekyo and genocide's record resounded throughout the ninja world.

Although Kisame doesn't have any dazzling achievements, the Samehada in his hand proves something. Among the seven Kirigakure Ninja Swordsmen, there is no weak one, and he is also a jounin in the end.

Such a luxurious lineup made Kakashi feel more pressure. He hoped that the ANBU would find the enemy early and rush over to support. Otherwise, not only would the mission of escorting Dazuna fail, but Naruto and the three of them would be in great danger.

Trying to stay calm, Kakashi said to Uchiha Itachi:

"Itachi, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I have always felt very sorry for you to become a rebel ninja. If you had not done anything, you might have become a guard captain."

After hearing this, Uchiha Itachi smiled:

"The guard captain is just a position. It has no real benefits for me. It's you, Captain Kakashi. Why are you still in Konoha? Do you still have a reason to stay in Konoha?"

Kakashi's face changed slightly, and he continued: "You don't need a reason to stay in Konoha. You came here this time to become Cardo's subordinate. Do you want to kill my protector Tazuna?"

"not completely…"

Uchiha Itachi glanced at Sasuke, and then said: "Before I saw you, solving Tazuna was the most important task, but after I see you, you are my biggest target."

"Konoha Technician Kakashi, Uzumaki Naruto, and my dearest brother."

"If we can catch you all in one fell swoop, Konoha will definitely be severely damaged."

Kisame looked at Uchiha Itachi in surprise, and whispered: "Mr. Itachi, have we revealed too much information? We want to capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki, but this mission is only to kill Tazuna."

Due to the distance, Kakashi was unable to hear Kisame's words, but this did not prevent him from remaining vigilant.

After taking out the kunai from his body, Kakashi protected Tazuna behind him, and at the same time said to Naruto and others: "Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, you take Tazuna to retreat first, I will be here for you To gain time."

After experiencing the baptism of battle, Naruto and others did not delay and quickly took Tazuna away.

Looking at Tatsuna who left quickly, Kisame drew the Samehada sword behind him. When Naruto and others were about to chase, Uchiha Itachi said slowly:

"Mr. Kisame, I'll leave Kakashi to you while I deal with the remaining ninjas."

Kisame trusted Uchiha Itachi very much. After nodding slightly, he slowly walked towards Kakashi, blocking Kakashi's escape route and saying:

"I have long heard of Hatake Kakashi's reputation. Let me come and meet you today."

Kakashi saw that he was stopped, so he had to raise his kunai and look at Kisame. After nearly ten years of Anbu career, his strength has transformed from a jonin to an elite jonin, which is very strong among all the ninjas in Konoha.

But he still didn't have enough confidence to defeat Kisame, because the deterrent power of the Ninja Swordsmen was too strong.

Without any hesitation, Kakashi took off his eye mask, revealing the three-magatama Sharingan that could not be closed. This pair of Sharingan allowed him to perform Raikiri without any scruples, but also kept his chakra in an unstable situation.

If he wanted to defeat Kisame, he had to use a quick battle strategy. If he delayed, he would inevitably fail.

After making hand seals, a flash of lightning appeared in Kakashi's hands, and then he performed the instant body technique and rushed over.

The shining lightning made it difficult for Kisame to open his eyes, so he could only raise the Samehada sword to stop Raikiri. In a roar, Raikiri directly hit Samehada.

The hit Samehada didn't suffer much damage, which made Kakashi frown.

Samehada's defense is too strong. If you can't hit Kisame with Raikiri, any attack will be ineffective, and conventional ninjutsu is really effective for Kisame.

If you want to completely defeat Kisame, you must develop a set of precise tactics in a short time.

Kisame is also very troubled by Kakashi. Kisame is an elite ninja of the Hidden Mist Village. He is good at water escape ninjutsu and physical skills. He thinks he is not inferior to the Mizukage in water escape ninjutsu.

However, the most embarrassing thing is that he can use water escape and physical skills in this place.

In terms of physical skills, his strength exceeds Kakashi, but his speed is slower than Kakashi, so it is difficult to hit Kakashi and cause damage to Kakashi.

And his best water escape is not easy to use here.

In theory, he would be invincible if he used water escape near the sea.

But Kakashi was good at lightning escape. If he used water escape, the power of lightning escape would be enhanced.

In this case, he could only defend and look for opportunities. As long as he could attack Kakashi, he could get rid of Kakashi at once with the characteristics of Samehada.

At the same time, he hoped that Uchiha Itachi could finish as soon as possible, as long as Mr. Itachi could successfully deal with those people and come back to support.

It would be very easy for the two of them to take down Kakashi.

At that time, they could not only complete the task of solving Dazna, but also directly capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

Retracting his gradually divergent thoughts, Kisame raised the Samehada broadsword to continue defending.
