Naruto: The Strongest Kakashi

The familiar voice, and the familiar smile.

"Kakashi!" Sandaime Hokage was surprised.

"Yeah, fortunately, I arrived in time."

"Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder God Technique)?" Orochimaru's voice rang again, but his tone showed that he wasn't surprised seeing Kakashi here.

"Orochimaru, I didn't expect you to really do this," Kakashi said.

"Haha, what I want to do will naturally be done, it's that simple. But I didn't expect that the Sandaime Kazekage and the Yondaime Kazekage can only hold you down for such a short time." Orochimaru said with a smile.

"If they have the power in their prime, it might be a little more troublesome, but they're just Edo Tensei. So it's not much trouble to me."

"That's true, they're a lot weaker than when they alive. But it doesn't matter, the result will be the same even if you're here."

"Oh, it seems that you are very confident, do you still think you have a chance to leave this place?"

"Hehe, Kakashi, do you think you can withstand both Shodaime Hokage and Nidaime Hokage?"

"If it was Shodaime Hokage and Nidaime Hokage in their prime, I naturally couldn't win against them, but they only have fraction of their strength when being summoned by using Edo Tensei, so I still have the chance to win."

"Haha, then you can try it." Orochimaru's voice disappeared again.

"Kakashi, you can leave Shodaime-sama and Nidaime-sama to me. I am familiar with their moves and technique. You are responsible for finding Orochimaru and defeating him!"

"Sandaime-sama, this..." Kakashi hesitated. If it was Sandaime Hokage from ten years ago, Kakashi would have no doubt about his strength.

But now, Sandaime Hokage is already 69-year-olds, and his body and strength have become a lot weaker.

" Haha, Kakashi, don't worry, I'm not old enough, Enma, let's go!"

Sandaime Hokage rushed towards Shodaime Hokage and Nidaime Hokage while carrying the Adamantine Staff.

Kakashi didn't stop him. Since Sandaime Hokage is sure about this, he can only let him go.

Looking at the surrounding trees, Kakashi had to admit that Shodaime Hokage's strength is really powerful.

'He changed the terrain in minutes, and this was not his strength in his prime. How terrifying is the so-called God of Shinobi?'

'And how strong is Madara in his prime?'

Kakashi is feeling a little anxious.

He is still far behind from the top experts of this world.

The trail of Orochimaru disappeared in this forest. After all, snakes were good at hiding.

Kakashi glanced left and right, but found nothing.

"Sure enough, ordinary perceptions simply cannot trace Orochimaru's trail."

Kakashi murmured, and then he formed a hand seal as he said: "Sage Mode!"

Red eyeshadows appeared near Kakashi's eyes. And powerful aura was released from his body.

"Sage Mode? I didn't expect you to have this level of talent. It looks like you can even do it perfectly by using the Cursed Seal." Orochimaru exclaimed.

Although Orochimaru is the one who developed the Cursed Seal, he couldn't use Sage Mode for a simple reason, because he uses his Fushi Tensei (Living Corpse Reincarnation), his Spiritual Force became weaker and wasn't able to hold the burden of using Sage Mode.

Sage Mode requires a balance of Spiritual Force, Physical Energy, and Natural Energy.

With the current amount of Orochimaru's Spiritual Force, how could it be possible for him to balance these three?

There are no free lunches in this world. Orochimaru has acquired eternal life, but correspondingly, he loses something else.

"Where is he?"

After using Sage Mode, Orochimaru's gloomy and cold breath simply couldn't escape Kakashi's perception.

Millennium Slash!

Mixed with the power of the lighting, Kakashi moved towards Orochimaru and slashed at him!

Orochimaru didn't panic. His body avoided Kakashi's attack at an almost impossible angle, and he quickly leaped away to get out of Kakashi's attack range.

"What a terrifying speed, even Sakumo wasn't that fast when he's alive. Kakashi, it seems that you have surpassed Sakumo," Orochimaru said emotionally.

At this moment, Orochimaru looks at Kakashi, as if he saw Sakumo back then.

The difference is the scarlet eye and the sword scar in his left eye.

Kakashi didn't answer. Strictly speaking, this is the second time he fights against Orochimaru. The first time was when Orochimaru defected. He had just crossed through this world back then and didn't have any strength to fight Orochimaru back.

The last time when Orochimaru planted the Cursed Seal on Kakashi's body in Kirigakure was not a fight. After all, Kakashi was already exhausted at that time.

This time, the two men fight again in an equal standing.

Orochimaru spit out his Sword of Kusanagi from his mouth and held it with his hand.

Facing one of the Legendary Three Great Artifacts, Kakashi's expression was slightly solemn.

Sword of Kusanagi is known as the extremely sharp artifact, even Enma who is as hard as adamantine when he transformed into his Adamantine Staff form can barely resist it.

Kakashi didn't know whether his Millennium Sword could withstand the terrifying artifact.

It's just that the slightly trembling sword made Kakashi feel that Millennium Sword is excited.

"Come, let me see how strong you are now."

"You will know soon."

Lighting covered the Millennium Sword again, and Kakashi swung his sword.

Ding!

The collision between the Millennium Sword and the Sword of Kusanagi officially began!

" Kū no Tachi!" (Longsword of the Sky)

Orochimaru said in a low voice, and the Sword of Kusanagi in his hand flew in the air like a whirlwind, moving towards Kakashi!

The sharp blade looks cold and dreadful!

Kakashi is not willing to show weakness. The lighting on the Millennium Sword became denser, and then it collides with the flying sword!

The flying Sword of Kusanagi was blocked by the Millennium Sword one after another. In just a few seconds, more than a hundred collisions occurred!

Kakashi jumped back to get some distance.

Look at the Millennium Sword's blade, Kakashi frowned slightly.

The blade was already chipped after colliding with the Sword of Kusanagi!

It shows the power of this legendary artifact!

Even if Millennium Sword is very hard, it still can't resist it!

"Haha, Kakashi, it seems that your sword can't be compared with my Sword of Kusanagi." Orochimaru taunted.

"Yeah, as expected of the Sword of Kusanagi, it is indeed very powerful. With such power, I am afraid that there are only a few things in thus world that can block its blade."

Kakashi didn't deny it. After all, he has never seen a sword that is sharper than the Sword of Kusanagi.

"It seems that your sword is going to be retiring here today."

"That's not necessarily true."

Kakashi's eyes flashed and his steps changed.

Orochimaru's pupils shrank, because Kakashi had already appeared in front of him.

"It still can cut your body."

Just as Kakashi's voice got into Orochimaru's ears, Millennium Sword had already penetrated Orochimaru's body.

It's a pity that there is no scene of blood splattering as Orochimaru turned into mud.

"Earth Clone! He's fast!"

Kakashi exclaimed.

In an instant, Orochimaru used Earth Clone to get away, showing his rich experience in battle.

"It's really hard to relax for a moment. Your speed is really terrifying."

Orochimaru's figure emerged from the nearby tree trunk as he released a sigh of relief.
