Chapter 889 Do you think I'm not good enough?
Kakashi's gaze sharpened, and he finally turned to look at Zhang Hai: "Do you think I'm not up to the task? If I can't even do this, how can I command my team?"
“I’m not looking down on you, Kakashi.” Zhang Hai’s expression was calm, even somewhat indifferent. “But the sound of ‘Chidori’ is too loud, and it will reveal our position. The enemy is well hidden now, and your attack method may put us in a difficult situation.”
A hint of displeasure flashed in Kakashi's eyes, but he remained calm: "Do you think using the Lightning Blade Technique would be more appropriate?" he asked rhetorically, his tone tinged with provocation.
Zhang Hai's gaze remained calm and composed, his words carrying a wise and steady tone: "The Thunder Blade is suitable for quick and stealthy kills, while the Thousand Birds' powerful force is suitable for frontal breakthroughs. However, its sound is too obvious, which will cause the enemy to react quickly. If you cannot completely eliminate the enemy, they will counterattack and even create more trouble."
Kakashi remained silent for a moment, knowing that Zhang Hai had a point. However, the resentment and the burning desire to prove himself were almost uncontrollable. He gritted his teeth and drew his White Fang without hesitation.
"I'm going to try, no matter what," Kakashi said coldly, gritting his teeth.
As soon as he finished speaking, Kakashi swiftly gathered chakra, gripped the lightning in the air with his right hand, and instantly a dazzling bolt of lightning burst forth from his hand, piercing straight at the enemy in front of him. That powerful "Chidori" force tore through the air, and the intense thunderclap shocked everyone.
However, just as Zhang Hai had predicted, the enemy reacted swiftly. Several sharp shuriken flew from the depths of the forest, heading straight for Kakashi's vitals. Kakashi remained calm, swinging his White Fang Blade to precisely block the shuriken. The lightning it emitted acted as a protective shield, preventing all attacks.
"Minato!" Kakashi shouted urgently.
Minato reacted quickly, throwing several kunai from behind, instantly deflecting the incoming shuriken. Kakashi's Chidori successfully hit the enemy, but the enemy's figure quickly disappeared, and then more than a dozen clones appeared, densely packed, instantly surrounding Kakashi.
"Shadow Clone Technique!" Kakashi sneered, having already made up his mind. He wasn't discouraged because his attack hadn't completely defeated the enemy; instead, it strengthened his resolve.
“It seems you still have a lot to learn.” Zhang Hai’s words rang in his ears. “The enemy is just trying to mislead you; the real opponent is still behind you.”
Just as Zhang Hai said, the enemy's clones were merely illusions; the real enemy was already lurking in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack. Kakashi regained his composure in an instant, quickly disappearing from his spot and using the Body Flicker Technique to dodge the enemy's attack.
"Are you ready, Kakashi?" Minato's voice came from behind him again, reminding Kakashi not to make another impulsive mistake.
Kakashi didn't reply; he focused his attention on every detail of his surroundings. In an instant, he had figured out the enemy's tactical layout, and he flashed out, rushing straight towards the hidden enemy.
At that moment, Zhang Hai's figure had already silently appeared on the enemy's flank, his Thunder Blade Technique silently cutting through the surrounding air. His speed was so fast that the enemy had no time to react; almost in the blink of an eye, the enemy had been defeated.
"Hurry up!" Zhang Hai's deep voice came, and Obito and Rin reacted quickly, following Kakashi as they approached the enemy's central area.
Obito's eyes gleamed with worry: "Kakashi, what's the rush? We can defeat the enemy together."
Kakashi remained silent, gripping his White Fang tightly, his unwavering resolve preventing him from stopping. Although he could feel the tacit understanding and trust between himself and his teammates, the sense of urgency within him continued to swell.
"He's gone too far," Minato said in a low voice from behind, watching Kakashi's figure disappear. He knew Kakashi's stubbornness, and he also knew that this battle was far more than just a mission for him.
The air thick with the tension of battle. Kakashi gripped his White Fang blade tightly, his heart pounding, his mind focused. Though physically exhausted, he was convinced that by giving it his all, he could defeat his enemy.
However, just as Kakashi was about to continue his charge, Minato's calm voice rang out again: "Kakashi, calm down! This is not the time for individual heroism."
“I know what to do!” Kakashi gritted his teeth, his voice somewhat cold. “You’re just slowing me down.”
“You don’t understand the situation.” Minato looked at Kakashi, a hint of worry in his eyes. “You’re already injured. Continuing will only put you in more danger. You’re not just fighting for yourself; you’re part of the whole team.”
Kakashi didn't turn around. His eyes were resolute as he stared at the blurry image of the enemy ahead: "I don't need you to teach me. I'll do all this myself." With that, he charged towards the enemy, his White Fang Blade flashing through the air like lightning.
"Kakashi!" Obito called out urgently, trying to catch up with Kakashi, but his voice was almost drowned out by the wind. Obito's eyes were filled with anxiety, and his concern for Kakashi made him feel helpless at that moment.
“Don’t worry about him, Obito.” Zhang Hai appeared beside Obito, his voice deep and steady. “Kakashi is a very proud person. He wants to prove something to himself. This is part of his growth, but we can’t let him bear all the responsibility alone.”
Obito clenched his fists, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes: "I know... but he acted too impulsively. I can't just stand by and watch him..."
“He needs independence, but he also needs your support,” Zhang Hai said calmly, turning his gaze to Kakashi. “Now, let’s coordinate our actions and end this battle as soon as possible.”
However, Kakashi had already entered the enemy ranks. His movements grew faster and faster, his Chidori ready to strike, the lightning bolt surging in his hand, filling the air with a piercing crackling sound. He leaped up, aiming straight for the enemy's heart.
However, the enemy was clearly prepared, using a clone technique to lure Kakashi into an encirclement. In an instant, more than a dozen enemy figures crisscrossed in the air, hurling shurikens and explosive tags at him, trying to trap Kakashi.
A cold smile flashed in Kakashi's eyes. He remained calm and quickly used the Body Flicker Technique to disappear from the spot. However, just as he was about to counterattack, a hidden weapon flew in and accurately struck the wound on his shoulder.
