Naruto: The Abstract Strategist of the Akatsuki

Chapter 151 The Masked Man: Nightmare

"Kakashi, are you alright? Do you want to rest for a while?"

Kushina asked worriedly.

"No need, let's continue."

Kakashi glanced at Kushina and refused.

He hadn't expected that even his master's wife, Kushina, had been resurrected and appeared here. He hadn't noticed her when he arrived because there were so many people around.

However, Kakashi's mind was completely preoccupied with the possibility that Obito might still be alive, and he had no time to think about anything else.

He couldn't wait to know the result.

Meanwhile, a masked man with a perfectly healthy lifestyle, who was taking a midday nap, was startled awake in his bed in the Divine Might Space.

The masked man first looked around warily, and only after confirming that there was no question to be answered did he slowly get up.

After getting up, the masked man covered his head, looking like he had a headache.

Because he had just had a strange dream.

I dreamt of the day he was solo killed by Stone.

If it's just about reminiscing about the past, then it's nothing.

The problem is that the story of this memory suddenly changed a bit.

Kakashi, who is naturally reserved, took advantage of his inability to resist and stole his bell, intending to transplant it.

This startled him awake.

After calming himself down and taking a urination, the masked man decided to go back to sleep.

Snoring.

The space of divine power was extremely quiet, and the masked man was enjoying a sleep like a baby.

the other side.

Kakashi was once again captured and trapped in the illusionary world of Tsukuyomi.

This time, he was leading Rin in an escape from the pursuit and interception of the Hidden Mist Village ninjas.

Kakashi knew what was about to happen, but his heart was as hard as stone; he was thinking about something else entirely.

—If the Lightning Blade were used as before, then Rin's heart would be vaporized by the powerful Lightning Release chakra.

At most, we can only collect some blood.

Kakashi wasn't sure how much material was needed for the Impure World Reincarnation, but a little blood certainly wouldn't be enough.

He couldn't possibly kill Lin and then take some of her body parts, could he?

Not to mention that doing so would be an offense to Rin's corpse and would put Kakashi in a difficult position, what if he were controlled by some unknown force again, just like Obito did?

Therefore, it must be done in one go.

Kakashi kept repeating to himself, "This is an illusion," and "Rin here isn't real."

After mentally preparing himself, Kakashi suddenly made his move.

His White Fang Short Sword had been broken by the Iwa ninja in the previous battle, and now he was empty-handed.

However, just because he doesn't have any equipment doesn't mean he can't get it from the enemy.

Kirigakure has the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and many people aspire to become sword wielders, so naturally there are quite a few who use swords.

Kakashi directly snatched a short sword from a Kirigakure ninja who was chasing them. He attached a small amount of Lightning Release to the short sword, increasing its sharpness without vaporizing the attacking parts like the Lightning Blade.

"Lin, I'm sorry!"

After Kakashi finished doing all this, he turned around and plunged the short sword into Rin's chest.

The dagger pierced through Lin's chest.

Rin coughed up a mouthful of blood: "Kakashi..."

Kakashi took a deep breath, gripped the hilt of his sword, and twirled it around.

Like eating a watermelon with a spoon, he ripped a hole in Lin's chest, then slapped her away, sending her flying into a scroll.

After completing all of this, Kakashi fainted.

Kakashi fainting is consistent with the upcoming plot.

But this isn't actually part of the story.

Kakashi was simply struggling to keep up.

The one under the greatest pressure this time in turning the illusory into reality is not the light responsible for transmitting chakra and releasing Tsukuyomi, nor is it Yakumo responsible for receiving light chakra to strengthen and turn the illusory into reality, nor is it Shiramo responsible for strengthening the light.

Instead, it was Kakashi who was continuously stimulated as a target of Tsukuyomi.

—Most importantly, don't forget that Kakashi's body hasn't fully recovered yet.

It hasn't been long since he last overused the kaleidoscope.

Tsukuyomi Space is deactivated.

Kakashi lay peacefully on the ground, next to him lay a blood-soaked scroll wrapped around something.

"He's fine. Silent. Take Kakashi to the medical ward and let him rest for a few days."

Tsunade stepped forward to check on Kakashi's condition, and after confirming that he was alright, she turned to Shizune and gave her instructions.

"...Yes, Lady Tsunade."

Helpless, Shizune stepped forward, grabbed Kakashi, carried him on her back, and walked outside.

"Next comes the most crucial moment: verification."

Orochimaru walked over and looked at the scroll on the ground, which was oozing blood. Inside were Nohara Rin's cells.

It's still fresh.

Snapped.

Orochimaru clapped his hands: "Impure World Reincarnation!"

Unlike before, this time there was a reaction.

Rin's cells fused with White Zetsu, and after a brief envelopment, the resurrected Nohara Rin was successfully summoned.

This isn't Rin Nohara from the illusionary world; this is the real world.

This successfully proved that Bai Mo's plan was feasible.

As long as the energy protection is followed, once things in the illusionary world are made real, their properties will be automatically corrected in the real world.

Even if Nohara Rin's real remains should be right now beneath the memorial grave in Konoha.

Orochimaru can also use cells transformed from genjutsu to perform the Impure World Reincarnation.

This actually solved another problem at the same time.

—The number of times the Impure World Reincarnation can be repeated.

Originally, the Impure World Reincarnation required a living sacrifice and a portion of the target's body, both of which are consumables.

The offerings were replaced by White Zetsu, and White Ink can reverse and repair White Zetsu, so it can be used sustainably.

The only exception is the body of the target in the Impure World Reincarnation, which is truly a one-time use and cannot be regenerated.

Even if you cultivate cells, they are new cells and cannot be used.

Unexpectedly, this indirect approach has now made this condition sustainable.

"Xiaolin~ Waaah, so pitiful, she sacrificed herself on the battlefield at such a young age~"

Kushina stepped forward and hugged Nohara Rin, whose consciousness had entered her body, and began to rub her.

"Kushina-nee? Where is this?"

Looking around at the group of strangers, Rin felt a little lost, but fortunately, she recognized Kushina, which put her at ease.

"This is the Impure World Reincarnation. Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation summoned us from the Pure Land. They want to confirm something..."

Kushina explained the situation to Rin.

"Now we can be sure, right? The identity of that masked man impersonating Madara, humph."

Tobirama Senju snorted coldly.

Now the evidence is conclusive.

Obito Uchiha could not be resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, but Rin Nohara could.

This means that the inherently evil Uchiha is still alive.

"Um, you guys probably don't need Rin's help anymore, right? May I take Rin to see what Konoha is like now?"

When Kushina heard the Second Hokage speak, her heart jumped into her throat.

They were afraid that the second generation might accidentally reveal that name.

After learning that the masked man was most likely Obito, Kushina found it hard to accept, let alone Rin.

Therefore, Kushina decided to keep it a secret for the time being and find a suitable time to tell.

"No problem, you can go now. We're almost done here too, we just need to do a final summary."

Bai Mo nodded.

"it is good."

Kushina, having received approval, quickly pulled Rin along and ran out.
