Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 254 Rescue

"Tell me the specifics of what happened!"

"Kakashi and Rin, shouldn't they be in the village? How did they suddenly end up at the border?"

Because Pakkun was needed to track Kakashi and the others, Toshiro did not choose to fly.

"They were just carrying out a simple mission, but for some reason, a large group of Kirigakure ANBU rushed out and kidnapped Rin!"

"Although Kakashi is in hot pursuit, those Kirigakure ANBU are all extremely troublesome. Kakashi alone simply cannot rescue Rin!"

It has to be said that the Mist Ninja are really bizarre. Their own ANBU can actually be controlled by others. There's no one else like them!

Furthermore, Toshiro strongly suspects that it's not just the Anbu who are being controlled; the Third Mizukage may also be under Madara's control.

In that case, plus the Fourth Mizukage.

The fact that two consecutive Mizukage of Kirigakure have been manipulated by others is truly pathetic.

There's a reason why their family has been suspected by successive Hokage; they themselves are well aware of the possibility of being controlled.

However, they couldn't be sure whether the people around them had been controlled by the Sharingan.

If things go wrong, a single glance from those Uchiha could lead to your own subordinates stabbing you in the back, and you'd die an unjust death.

Any leader would have to be wary of this kind of thing.

"Didn't they inform Minato-senpai? I remember Kakashi has Minato-senpai's kunai; with the Flying Thunder God Technique, he could probably get to Kakashi's side in an instant!"

Given Minato's situation, he could have sensed something and rushed to Kakashi's side. Moreover, Kakashi should have been able to handle the AB combination with ease, so there was no need for him to get involved.

Although I am the closest to it.

"I don't know! It seems like they have another mission!"

As a ninja dog, Puck had no idea what was going on; he was just a dog.

"Over here!"

After sniffing the air, Puck, carrying Toshiro, sped off in one direction.

Having grown up with Kakashi since childhood, Pakkun was still very worried about his safety. There were just too many enemies this time, and it would be almost impossible for Kakashi alone to rescue Rin.

If they don't bring reinforcements with them and get to Kakashi's side quickly, they probably won't even be able to collect his body.

Fortunately, the psychic spell had not yet been lifted, so there was still time to save everything.

……

"Lin! You go first, I'll hold them off!"

Kakashi shoved Nohara Rin in front of him and turned to rush towards the pursuers behind him. He was determined to protect his comrades this time no matter what, and never let the tragedy of last time happen again.

She had promised Obito that she would protect Rin!

"But, Kakashi..."

"No buts, hurry up... Lin!"

While fending off the enemy's attack, Kakashi didn't forget to remind the hesitant Rin Nohara, while he stayed behind to stop the enemies.

Seeing this scene, even though Rin sensed that something was wrong with her body, she didn't stay any longer to hold Kakashi back.

He turned around and rushed into the forest.

"We can't let the test subject escape!"

Upon seeing their prey escape their sight, one of the Kirigakure ANBU shouted, pointing at Nohara Rin in the distance, his tone excited, as if afraid that the other party would slip out of their control.

"Send some of your men to chase after the girl who ran away, and the rest of you will come with me to take down this troublesome guy!"

A member of the Mist Ninja Anbu, who appeared to be their leader, began assigning tasks.

If you observe carefully, you'll see that although these people are very anxious, their actions are still somewhat hesitant and inefficient.

Not that proactive!

They weren't in a hurry, of course. Their task now was simply to keep a close eye on these two brats and drive them to Konoha.

As long as that little girl doesn't disappear from the sensory ninja's tracking range, that's fine!

"We absolutely cannot let you pass!"

Seeing the Mist Ninja ANBU preparing to bypass him and chase after Rin, Kakashi activated Chidori, transforming into a bolt of lightning and killing the enemies who were about to pursue Rin.

"Kill this bastard!"

Seeing their comrades killed, some of the Mist Ninja couldn't stand it anymore. This white-haired brat was too arrogant.

Although they were intentionally going easy on him, this kid was too tactless; it would have been easier to just kill him outright.

"Don't act impulsively! The mission must come first!"

As the leader of the Mist Ninja, how could he possibly let this mission go wrong because of a momentary impulse?

If it were just that one experimental subject, who was a ticking time bomb, who escaped back to Konoha, even if everyone in Konoha were an idiot, they would know that there must be something wrong.

"But the captain?"

"All sacrifices are for the sake of completing the mission!"

Without giving his subordinates a chance to speak, the leader of the Mist Ninjas ignored their sacrifice and prepared to continue acting according to the plan.

Extremely cold.

However, because the mask concealed their expression, no one could see what they were looking at!

They subtly made a few hand gestures, causing their companions to 'inadvertently' create an opening, allowing the white-haired brat in the encirclement to break free. Then, they all clung tightly to the two Konoha brats behind them.

Constantly putting pressure on them, pushing the two of them towards Konoha.

"Kakashi, something feels wrong with my body! Those Mist Ninja just did something to me!"

Looking at Kakashi beside her, Rin Nohara felt much more at ease. As long as he was by her side, she could face any difficulty.

It seems those Mist Ninja just now put something in his body, and it seems like they have some kind of conspiracy against Konoha.

However, I seemed to be under an illusion at the time, and my memory was fragmented, with some things I couldn't recall.

"This isn't the time to talk about that. I promised Obito I would protect you!"

He had just overheard the conversation between the Mist Ninja, which sounded like they were discussing experimental subjects, but given the current situation, he couldn't worry about that for the time being.

"Damn it! These Mist Ninja are really persistent!"

Sensing the pursuers closing in behind him, Kakashi had no time to think about anything like experimental subjects!

He quickly pulled out a few explosive tags from his ninja tool bag and threw them behind him, hoping that this would make the pursuers behind him think twice.

The grades have been stagnant. Do you guys think it's because the earlier parts were too verbose? Would deleting some parts of the beginning help? How much should be deleted? The author is feeling a bit lost and would appreciate any advice.
