"Looks like he's not a simple kid."
Seeing their opponent's movements, Kakashi and Obito instantly prepared themselves.
[Obito, holding a kunai, bows in preparation for attack.]
Kakashi, already holding his short sword, spoke warily.
"I've fought him once; he's very fast."
"Be careful."
【"Know."】
[As soon as Obito answered, a cruel smile appeared on the face of the Iwa ninja opposite him.]
[In an instant, he took a step and rushed towards the two.]
Kakashi's reaction was equally swift; almost at the same instant his opponent moved, he vanished from his spot like a streak of light.
Obito was not to be outdone; he strode forward, and with his Sharingan activated, he finally caught up with the movements of a Jonin.
【"Clang!"】
[With a flick of his wrists, the Iwa ninja unleashed two short blades that flew swiftly from his wrists, forming arm blades.]
Without pausing for a moment, he raised his hand and slashed at Obito.
However, Obito was no longer the same person he once was. Seeing the approaching blade, he crouched slightly and dodged the opponent's fierce attack.
Seeing his opponent swing his sword again with his right hand, Obito deftly braced himself against the ground, levitating into the air.
Kakashi attacked from the side, but the Iwa ninja, who had been focused solely on attacking Obito, were not caught off guard by Kakashi.
【"Clang!"】
The powerful collision instantly produced a metallic clang.
[The Iwa ninja turned around and swung his sword, blocking Kakashi's sudden attack.]
【"Clang!"】
[Another loud bang. The Iwa ninja had already positioned themselves and was closing in on Kakashi, delivering a powerful chop that sent Kakashi flying to the side.]
[Obito saw an opportunity and prepared to get up and attack.]
[But the Iwa ninja seemed to have anticipated this and slammed their fist towards Obito.]
【"Clang!"】
Although Obito managed to defend in time, he was still forced back by the powerful force.
Meanwhile, the Iwa ninja unexpectedly swung his other hand sharply in Kakashi's direction.
This attack was unexpected; although Kakashi dodged it in time, several strands of his hair were still cut off.
【"Clang!"】
He then raised his dagger and thrust it at his opponent.
However, there was ultimately a difference in strength, and Kakashi's short sword was deflected almost instantly.
【"Clang!"】
He blocked the path of the Iwa ninja who was about to attack his face with his sword.
Obito intended to attack from the side, but the opponent's strength was clearly not that of the previous two.
[Unfazed by being surrounded by Kakashi and Sharingan-wielding Obito, he grabbed Obito's shoulder and flipped over him.]
[He could even withstand Kakashi's sudden upward slash while in mid-air.]
【"Clang!"】
[He then spun around, crossed his arms to gather strength, and was about to deliver a horizontal slash to decapitate Obito.]
Fortunately, Kakashi's upward slash delayed the Iwa ninja for a moment, allowing Obito to narrowly avoid the attack by bending over!
Taking advantage of the moment when the opponent's center gate opened, Kakashi appeared behind Obito like a ghost, charging forward with a short sword in hand.
The Iwa ninja was about to unleash another horizontal slash with both arms to force Kakashi back.
[Obito instantly used his Sharingan to capture the Iwa ninja's movements, but Kakashi unwaveringly trusted Obito's observational skills.]
【"bump!"】
To the astonishment of the Iwa ninja, Obito actually kicked him twice in the arm span area as he moved at high speed, preventing him from closing his arms.
【"brush!"】
In a fraction of a second, Kakashi slashed the Iwa ninja in the chest!
[Blood flowed freely in an instant!]
Kakashi then leaped into the air and landed heavily on the Iwa ninja's back.
[“Bang!”]
With the Iwa ninja falling to the ground, the battle finally came to an end.
Kakashi and Obito rushed towards Rin.
"Holy crap! Don't go!! Finish him off!!!" Zhang Chulan from Under One Person World.
"Finish him off! Finish him off now! Holy crap, what are you doing? Finish him off already!" —Anonymous, from the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes.
Chapter 55 A Life for a Life! Wang Lu: There's bound to be a twist!
"Oh no, why aren't those two finishing him off?" —Anonymous, from the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes.
"Ah, didn't we already win?" Ash Ketchum in the Pokémon world.
"...I hope so." (From the novel "A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality," by Han Paopao)
"I hope he's alright..." Zhang Chulan from Under One Person World.
Kakashi and Obito quickly ran to Rin. Kakashi crouched down and raised his hand, forming a hand seal.
【"untie!"】
【"Uh~"】
[Lin seemed to awaken from a deep dream; her previously dim eyes regained their luster.]
[Looking at the two people in front of him in surprise, he muttered to himself.]
"Kakashi, Obito."
"We've come to rescue you, Lin. You're alright now."
[Tu Zi Ge, fearing that Lin would be frightened, repeatedly comforted her.]
"Alright, let's get out of here quickly."
As Kakashi spoke, he reached out and untied the ropes binding Rin.
【"I see……"】
Just then, the Iwa ninja who had been lying on the ground suddenly got up again.
"Holy crap, he really stood up." (From the world of Battle Through the Heavens, Xiao Yan)
"What the heck? Is Kakashi's sword made of paper? He managed to cut down two people and still not kill them?!" —Wang Lu, from the world of Once Upon a Time in Spirit Sword Mountain.
"I knew it! Damn it, it's this damn plot! It's all over, all over." (From the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes, by an anonymous author...)
"It's not that serious, is it? It's just that the enemy has risen again. We've already defeated them once before, and this time there's one more person. No matter how you look at it, the advantage is on our side." Xia Ling, in the Soul Street world.
"Foolish woman, would the enemy have so easily revealed their presence if they weren't prepared?" Cao Yanbing in the Soul Town Street world.
"Does that mean Kakashi and the others are in great danger right now?" (Kuiba World, Manji)
"It's more than just danger; in war, giving the enemy a chance to breathe will only lead to their most frantic, desperate counterattack!" — Tang Long, The Legend of the Little Soldier.
"Kid, I take back my previous assessment. The Sharingan can see the flow of an opponent's chakra, yet you didn't even bother to take a look to confirm whether the enemy was dead or not, hmph!" Naruto world, Uchiha Shimada.
"A great collaboration."
As he spoke, Iwa ninja turned around and crouched down to look at the three little ones.
"But he's still just a kid."
"Now, you are in the enemy's grasp."
Having said that, the Iwa ninja raised his hands and formed three hand seals.
"Earth Release: Rock Collapse."
[As he spoke, he raised his right hand high and then slammed it to the ground.]
In the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes, an anonymous person said, "Seriously, you guys just watched him form hand seals?! You could at least throw something to distract him!"
As the spell was activated, the entire cave began to tremble instantly, the rock walls cracked, and fine gravel and dust rained down rapidly.
【"Oops."】
Obito, seeing the rock ceiling constantly cracking, exclaimed that things were in dire straits.
"Run to the exit quickly!"
Kakashi said repeatedly.
Immediately, the three of them ran quickly towards the cave entrance.
However, perhaps because his vision was obstructed by one eye, Kakashi didn't notice a piece of debris that had broken off and shot towards him from the sky.
【"bump!"】
[“Ah~”]
The rubble slammed into Kakashi's head, causing him to lose his balance and collapse to the ground.
"Kakashi!"
Rin exclaimed in surprise and turned around to help Kakashi.
However, Obito was faster than her, turning back and running straight to Kakashi's side, quickly scooping him up in his arms.
However, Kakashi was unconscious and unable to exert any strength, making Obito's movements extremely difficult.
Suddenly, Obito seemed to sense something, looked up, his expression instantly changed, and he forcefully threw Kakashi aside.
【"boom!"】
[At this point, the rubble above had completely broken apart, and Obito could only watch helplessly as a huge boulder magnified infinitely in his eyes!]
【"Bang!!"】
The boulder crashed down, its impact creating a powerful gust of wind and huge waves that caused Lin's already weakened body to sway.
Outside the cave entrance, the Iwa ninja had already escaped, watching the sand and dust continuously gushing out of the cave.
It's hard to imagine what a mess it is inside now.
[Iwa Shinobu raised the corners of his mouth smugly and said.]
"Although it's a rare source of intelligence..."
"But there's nothing we can do about it."
Inside the cave, the effects of the spell had worn off, and the air was filled with smoke and dust.
Kakashi and Rin collapsed to the ground.
After a long pause, Kakashi's body suddenly trembled slightly.
A faint sound could be heard coming from not far away.
"Are you alright, Rin... Kakashi..."
The two struggled to their feet and looked towards the source of the sound.
Kakashi's eyes widened instantly as he saw Obito's body half-buried under a boulder.
The faint sound came from Obito beneath the boulder.
"Obito!"
