Naruto: First Love

Chapter 185 The Man Going Upstream
"Kakashi!"

With the sound of a splash as he fell into the water, Huo Wu screamed and frantically reached out to touch Kakashi, wanting to know where Kakashi was injured.

Kakashi didn't respond.

Huo Wu was so anxious that she was about to cry, but she was in the water and was held tightly by Kakashi, so she couldn't move at all and couldn't find out the extent of Kakashi's injuries.

Even though he was injured, he still held himself to prevent himself from getting hurt...

Kakashi, you are such an idiot!

Huo Wu took a breath and the wound under her ribs began to throb with pain, and even her heart began to ache.

Unable to move her waist, Huo Wu could only use her hands to fiddle around in the water, hoping to find some driftwood.

The water flow was too turbulent, and Huo Wu couldn't use chakra to stand in the water.

The fast-flowing water carried the two men downstream, and they hit one or two rocks from time to time, leaving many wounds on their bodies.

A long time ago, Huo Wu was a landlubber, but now she was not a landlubber at all. She only wanted to survive and survive with Kakashi.

After finally getting herself out of Kakashi's arms, Huo Wu held onto Kakashi with one hand and rummaged around in the water with the other hand, finally catching a not-very-big piece of wood.

He quickly got Kakashi onto the wood and floated downstream.

After a long time, the water flow finally became less turbulent, very gentle, and the water became much shallower.

Huo Wu guessed that it was in a wide river, lake or reservoir.

Because the wound under her ribs was not treated and bled too much, Huo Wu's face turned pale and she felt dizzy.

As soon as he got Kakashi off the wood, he felt something heavy under his feet and fell into the water.

He choked and quickly helped Kakashi up to prevent him from drowning in the water.

……

Two figures came from downstream, not very fast. One was tall and the other short, one was thin and the other was strong. Both were wearing bamboo hats.

It was a dark night with no moon as it had just rained, but they had good eyesight and could easily see the two people in the water.

"Hmm? Itachi-san, is there anyone there?" The tall man carrying a long cloth bag spoke in a hoarse voice. He looked a little confused, but there was interest in his tone.

The short man looked up. His black robe, high collar and bamboo hat almost covered his face. When he looked up, he found that he was an extremely handsome man, no more than 20 years old, with a wrinkle on one side of his face.

After seeing the two people in the river, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and his voice was cold and cold, "Well, go and see if there are people fighting up there? We can't let anyone discover our whereabouts."

Hearing the latter words, the shark-faced Kisame curled his lips. He was not surprised at all. He didn't care about the two people in the river at all. It was really Itachi's style.

But why did he go again?
Although he was a little unhappy, Kisame didn't refute a word. He carried his sword and leaped forward a few steps.

As soon as Huo Wu dragged Kakashi to a shallower area in the water, she felt a cold breeze blowing past, and a strange feeling arose in her heart, as if a flash of chakra just passed by?

But why did it disappear again? Was she wrong?

However, because the speed was too fast and Huo Wu was in a hurry to drag Kakashi out of the water, she didn't think about it carefully.

Even if someone comes, we have to rescue Kakashi first!

but……

Huo Wu was stunned when she sensed someone suddenly entering the sensing range.

Who is this person? I feel strangely familiar with him, as if I have sensed this kind of chakra somewhere before.

Huo Wu looked in the direction of Itachi with some vigilance, worried that it was an enemy, and at the same time dragged Kakashi towards the river bank.

After reaching the river bank, Huo Wu's eyes lit up and she thought of a person. Their chakras were very similar, but Sasuke's chakra was tainted with Orochimaru's curse and had an evil aura, so it was not quite like him.

Huo Wu murmured softly, "Sasuke? No…."

Shaking her head, Huo Wu finally dragged Kakashi ashore. Her vision went dark and she was about to fall down.

"Sasuke?" A cold voice sounded beside my ear, with doubt in it.

Huo Wu opened her eyes but didn't open them. She smiled bitterly and said with a strong will: "Don't hurt him..." After that, she fell into a coma completely.

Itachi looked at the two people lying at his feet, hesitating whether to treat their wounds.

Anyone who knows Sasuke?
Judging from the information I have obtained, the only people who are worried about Sasuke, care about Sasuke, and feel sorry for him should be the members of Team 7, right?

Team 7 is Kakashi's class, and this man is obviously Kakashi. After so many years, Itachi would naturally not forget the cold-blooded Kakashi, the captain of the Anbu, with whom he had worked for a long time in Konoha's Anbu.

However, the man who was once known as the cold-blooded Kakashi is now protecting a little girl so well?

He is more like a cold-blooded person, right?
Who could be the little girl that Kakashi cares about?

The organization doesn't have much information about Kakashi. All we need to know about Kakashi is that he is a member of Team 7 and is Sasuke's teacher.

As for Huo Wu, itachi didn't have any memory of her. He originally thought that she was some other girl from Konoha who was in love with Sasuke.

But there was nothing on Huo Wu that represented Konoha, and the appearance of Kakashi also made Itachi a little hesitant.

Kakashi still cares about Sasuke very much. Someone who knows Sasuke and can make Kakashi protect him so desperately must be a special existence in Konoha, right?
Itachi saw at a glance that the wounds on Kakashi's body were caused by a knife, and Kakashi no longer used the short sword after leaving the Anbu. The people in the Anbu used the knife to facilitate killing people. Kakashi had his own unique skills, so he would not use the knife.

There are no calluses on Huo Wu's hands from the knife, which means she is not good at using a knife. It is possible that she is not even good at using kunai and shuriken.

But Huo Wu’s eyes…

Her eyes were lifeless, as if she was blind, but there were still bloodshot eyes, proving that Huo Wu had overused her eyes, causing her to go blind due to overload.

The use of the eyes to cause a load is generally done by using pupil techniques. In Konoha, there are only two pupil techniques for the time being, the Byakugan and the Sharingan.

The Byakugan belongs to the Hyuga clan. Their pupils are different from those of ordinary people, so you can tell whether it is Byakugan without careful identification.

And the Sharingan...

As a genius of the Uchiha clan, Itachi naturally did a lot of research on the Sharingan. He also knew that only members of the Uchiha clan had the Sharingan, and that not every member of the Uchiha clan had the Sharingan.

Huo Wu doesn't seem to be the Uchiha clan member who escaped the massacre. Why is that?

Sasuke is the only one left in the Uchiha clan, and Huo Wu's eyes should not be from the Uchiha clan.

Itachi was a little confused, but only for a moment. The next second, he stood up and prepared to leave.

However, his footsteps paused in the next second as Huo Wu murmured, "Sasuke... Kakashi... Orochimaru... Kill... Run... Nissan... Sasuke."

As if possessed by a ghost, Itachi squatted down, carried the two men away from the shore.
