Ninja: I'm really an auxiliary ninja

Chapter 212 Kakashi: I swear by Metkai’s youth.

His eyes came to the battlefield of the Kingdom of Water.

Orochimaru's troops had already crossed the land of Fire Country the day before yesterday, rushing from the southwest border to the southeastern border of Fire Country where Tsunade's troops were located.

To be honest, the support from Orochimaru's headquarters has been very fast, and the timing of the support is also very appropriate and timely.

With the addition of Orochimaru's Konoha ninjas, the advance of the Water Country ninja troops was effectively curbed, and they even suffered considerable losses on local battlefields.

Of course, this local battlefield does not include the encounter between Matt Dai and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

It can be said that after the addition of Orochimaru's troops to the battlefield of the Kingdom of Water, the balance of offense and defense has stabilized, and the ninja troops of the Kingdom of Water can no longer advance even one step further into the hinterland of the Kingdom of Fire.

Moreover, after Orochimaru's headquarters and Tsunade's headquarters were integrated, the command was naturally transferred to Orochimaru's hands.

Orochimaru is not only a master of scientific research, but also has made great achievements in combat command.

It can be said that Orochimaru is an all-rounder, and the factor that limits his progress may be his short life.

It was probably for this reason that Orochimaru went further and further in his pursuit of immortality.

Although the future has become confusing with the involvement of Akira Hatake, now that Orochimaru is in charge, the future shape of the battlefield in the Kingdom of Water will gradually become clear.

In addition to the title "Konoha Sannin", Orochimaru also has the title "Lengjun Orochimaru".

The original reason why "Cold Lord Orochimaru" was resounding in the ninja world was because he had a pair of cold snake eyes, but what really made enemies recognize this title was Orochimaru's cold-blooded style of commanding operations.

As we all know, snakes are cold-blooded animals, and Orochimaru is not only cold to himself and his own people, but also treats his enemies in the same way.

Orochimaru's fighting style is completely different from that of Jiraiya and Tsunade, two of the three ninjas, and his tactics are quite similar to Danzo Shimura who died in this war.

He doesn't care about the life or death of his own people, let alone the life or death of his enemies. Orochimaru only focuses on results, all he wants is victory!

Orochimaru could send a team of Konoha ninjas out as bait without hesitation. Not only did he ignore their life and death, but it was also common for them not to save them.

Because of this, Orochimaru usually achieved some unexpected results after sacrificing the lives of some Konoha ninjas.

Defeating more with less, defeating more with strength, has always been Orochimaru's hallmark when commanding his troops in battle.

Therefore, this also created Orochimaru's unique personality charm, which made some Konoha ninjas worship him crazily, while also making some Konoha ninjas fear him like a snake.

Because you don’t know whether the next mission Orochimaru assigns to you will be to serve as a bait and die, or to serve as the oriole behind the mantis stalking the cicada.

Uncertainty and instability have become another label of Orochimaru's command style.

Although Orochimaru's command style will indeed cause two extreme divisions in Konoha's ninja troops.

But it is undeniable that under the command of Orochimaru, Konoha ninja troops are gradually regaining their advantage and slowly cannibalizing the Water Country ninja troops that have invaded the territory of Fire Country.

And today, the stalemate between the two parties will be broken, because Hatake Kakashi has led the Konoha ninjas of the former Namikaze Minato to the battlefield of the Kingdom of Water.

"Kakashi, your equipment... reminds me of those Warring States ninjas who have disappeared into the dust of history."

When Orochimaru saw Kakashi for the first time, he was stunned for a moment, then licked his lips and spit out a joke.

"I feel good."

When Akira Hatake is not with Kakashi, Kakashi always treats others with a very cold attitude.

Only Namikaze Minato can make Kakashi have some different emotions.

As for Orochimaru, although he has a great reputation, Kakashi does not lose his face at all.

Kakashi has that strength, and he also has something to rely on.

"hehe."

Orochimaru chuckled, not taking Kakashi's rebuttal to heart, "Kakashi, do you choose to go on the battlefield mission immediately, or do you want to rest for a day before talking?"

"It all depends on Lord Orochimaru."

Kakashi blinked his eyes and kicked the ball he chose to Orochimaru again.

"hehe."

There was another chuckle, and Orochimaru's eyes shone brightly, "Then go and perform the battlefield mission immediately. I really want to see what you, who are known as the Twins of Konoha with Akira Hatake, will do on the battlefield.

Excellent performance.”

"You won't be disappointed."

Kakashi's attitude was still cold, and his mood basically didn't fluctuate much.

To be honest, with Kakashi's current physical condition, traveling such a long distance for help is really nothing to him.

With Akira Hatake using three skills to assist Kakashi in his training before, and also with the many equipments Akira Hatake gave him this time, Kakashi's current physical fitness is simply frightening.

Although he still can't keep up with Senju Hashirama, the total amount of life energy in Kakashi's body is now no less than that of Uzumaki Kushina.

Don't underestimate Uzumaki Kushina's physical fitness. She is still alive after being separated from the tailed beast, and she can also use the sealing technique to imprison the nine tails again!

This shows how strong Kakashi's current physical fitness is.

"But I have a request."

But after agreeing, Kakashi still took the initiative to make a request to Orochimaru, "The companions who came with me to rescue them still need to rest for about two days before they can be deployed on the battlefield."

"It's natural."

Of course Orochimaru would not embarrass Kakashi on such a matter, and he had no intention of embarrassing Kakashi originally. He just wanted to see how Kakashi would look after being angered by him.

But it's a pity that Kakashi is not someone who can be angered by just one or two words. His current mentality is very stable, as stable as a rock.

"So Kakashi, what kind of ninjas do you want me to send you?"

Orochimaru tilted his head, "Is it a medical ninja? A sensory ninja? Or an auxiliary ninja?"

"No need." Kakashi shook his head, "They will only become a burden to me and limit my ability to exert myself."

"Oh, arrogant!"

Orochimaru did not speak, but Tsunade, who stood aside and looked Kakashi up and down, snorted and scolded Kakashi.

The reason why Tsunade reprimanded Kakashi was not to really blame Kakashi, but to take care of him a little in this way.

In Tsunade's understanding, traveling long distances consumes physical and mental energy, and Kakashi is also wearing a relatively heavy half-armor and cloak, which undoubtedly makes Kakashi's consumption even more serious.

Listening to Tsunade's scolding, Kakashi knew that Tsunade was taking care of him, but knowing that he knew didn't mean that Kakashi would appreciate it.

To be honest, whether it is Hatake Akira or Kakashi, both of them can only maximize their strength when they fight alone.

Especially in a battlefield with varying strengths, whether or not there are teammates beside them is the biggest limiting factor that affects the speed of two people mowing the grass.

As mentioned earlier, when there are teammates, Kakashi or Akira Hatake need to be distracted to take care of others, which prevents the two from using their full firepower.

But without the constraints of his teammates, Kakashi or Akira Hatake can mow the enemy ninjas without any distractions.

"Tsunade-sama, please believe me, I can handle everything."

Kakashi put away his dead eyes and looked at Tsunade sincerely, hoping that she would stop meddling in her own business.

Tsunade glared at Kakashi, and seeing that the latter's eyes showed no intention of flinching, she could only let Kakashi go on his own.

"Huh, whatever you want!"

"Thank you, Tsunade-sama."

Kakashi bent down to thank him, then looked at Orochimaru, "Lord Orochimaru, I wonder what the task you have assigned me is?"

"Your mission..."

Orochimaru thought for a while, then snapped his fingers, "Since you are so confident, I have no choice but to change the original mission and send you alone to the frontal battlefield of the Kingdom of Water!"

"Orochimaru, you..." Tsunade stared at Orochimaru in disbelief, somewhat confused in her heart.

Although Kakashi is now famous, the rumors are just rumors, and there is inevitably an element of exaggeration in them.

As the saying goes, what you hear is what you see. Before Kakashi's own strength was confirmed, Orochimaru gave him a mission to die alone. This was a big mistake in Tsunade's opinion!

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru."

Just when Tsunade was about to stop him, Kakashi nodded in agreement. This move made Tsunade choke on her words and felt very uncomfortable.

"snort!"

Turning her head fiercely, Tsunade quickly walked out of Orochimaru's handsome tent, out of sight and out of mind.

"Very good!" Orochimaru licked his lips, "You should set off now. Remember, you are the only one on this attack mission!"

"I see."

Kakashi nodded slightly towards Orochimaru, then turned and left the handsome tent.

"Kakashi!"

Just when Kakashi was about to take charge of Orochimaru's command, Metkai appeared out of nowhere.

"Kai?!"

Meeting an old acquaintance in the camp, Kakashi's mood couldn't help but fluctuate.

After all, Kakashi and Metkai got along very well when they were in Class 8, and their relationship has reached the stage of close friends.

"Ha! Kakashi, you look really mighty like this!"

Of course, Metkay was also immersed in the joy of meeting the two, which temporarily diluted the grief in his heart for losing his loved one.

The behavior was a little exaggerated and a little out of touch. Metkai kept jumping around Kakashi, poking left and right while jumping, and was very curious about Kakashi's armor and cloak.

"What kind of material is this made of? It doesn't look like the quality is very good. Isn't it just a fake product?"

After observing for a long time, Metkai scratched his head and choked out a sentence that almost made Kakashi fall over.

"This is the artifact my brother gave me!"

Kakashi glanced at Metkai with disgust, and even reached out to pat the area on the armor that Metkai had touched.

"As for...it's just talk."

Metkai felt aggrieved. He was just telling the truth. Why did he get a blank look from Kakashi?

It’s really average!

Of course, handsome is still really handsome.

But then, Metkai's eyes suddenly shone again, "Kakashi, did Ming come with you?!"

"Not really." A hint of darkness flashed in Kakashi's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. "Brother and Minato-sensei are on another battlefield."

"That's it..." Metkai was also a little disappointed, "If Ming and Mr. Minato are both here, our eighth class can be reunited again!"

"There will be that opportunity." Kakashi was also looking forward to it, and he couldn't help but think about the scene when Minato's class reunited in the future.

"In that case...Kakashi, let's use our 32nd duel to start our passionate youth after we meet again!"

But just when Kakashi was looking forward to the reunion of Minato's class, Metkai's sudden invitation to a duel instantly confused Kakashi.

Don’t let the topic jump so much, okay?

After being choked by Metkai, Kakashi could only glance at the eager Metkai next to him with his dead eyes.

"Let's wait another day, I still have a mission to do."

"What mission?"

"Go to the front line alone and defeat the ninja troops of the Kingdom of Water!"

"What?!" Metkai was petrified on the spot, "Alone? Are you kidding!"

"I swear on your youth, I'm not kidding."

After saying that, Kakashi left without looking back, leaving Metkai alone with his head bowed in thought.

After a while, when Kakashi was gone, Metkai raised his head, with a trace of confusion still in his eyes.

"Why did Kakashi swear by my youth instead of his...?"

Shaking his head, Metkai chased in the direction where Kakashi disappeared.
