Naruto: The Strongest Kakashi

Chapter 396 Letter

The Land of Flower's Daimyo Mansion, inside the guest room.

"Sasuke, is the Kusanagi Sword in your hand?" Kakashi asked.

Sasuke nodded and took out the Kusanagi Sword.

Kakashi took it, looked at it carefully, and then said: "It seems that Orochimaru is not wrong. This Kusanagi Sword is indeed a fake and it is a bit worse than his Kusanagi Sword."

"How can you are so sure, Kakashi-sensei?" Sasuke asked curiously.

"It's very simple. I have fought against Orochimaru before, and his Kusanagi Sword is much sharper than my previous Millennium Sword. This Kusanagi Sword is indeed better than my previous Millennium Sword, but it is just a little better," Kakashi explained.

"It turns out to be like that." Sasuke nodded.

"But even so, there is not many sword in this world that can be compared to this Kusanagi Sword."

Kakashi said as he handed the Kusanagi Sword back to Sasuke.

Sasuke was taken aback, and said, " Kakashi-sensei, this…"

"This sword is yours now." Kakashi said with a smile.

"Kakashi-sensei, this…is this appropriate?" Sasuke was a suprised.

As someone who has trained in swordsmanship, Sasuke is indeed a little fond of this sword.

Sasuke also has the desire to ??use this Kusanagi Sword, but Sasuke knows that such weapons cannot be owned casually.

This Kusanagi Sword is the reward from this mission and is to be handed over to Konoha. If Kakashi gave it to himself, he is afraid that there will be some trouble.

"Do not worry, it's just a fake Kusanagi Sword. Tsunade-sama won't be that petty." Kakashi said with a smile.

Kakashi is also telling the truth. Even if Tsunade knows that the Kusanagi Sword has been given to Sasuke, she will not pursue anything.

On one hand, this Kusanagi Sword is what Kakashi and the others found, and it was considered the reward of the mission.

Even if it is handed over to the village, the village will give a certain amount of compensation to them.

On the other hand, Tsunade will still give Kakashi some favor, after all a fake Kusanagi Sword is obviously not as valuable as Kakashi.

Tsunade wouldn't care about these things as long as it is for Kakashi .

"Thank you very much, Kakashi-sensei." Sasuke accepted the Kusanagi Sword when he heard Kakashi's words, and he was a little moved in his heart.

"Use it well. By the way, you should change the name of this sword, otherwise it always feels weird to call it Kusanagi Sword," Kakashi said.

"Kakashi-sensei, can you please give it the name?"

"Well, let's call it Sky Cloud Sword."

"Thank you, Kakashi-sensei."

"Haha, now, you should rest early as we will return to Konoha tomorrow." Kakashi finished speaking and returned to his room while waving his hand.

Sasuke watched Kakashi leave without moving.

After a while, Sasuke looked at the Kusanagi Sword in his hand. No, it should be called the Sky Cloud Sword from now on.

"Sky Cloud Sword…"

Sasuke picked up the Sky Cloud Sword and went to the courtyard, training the sword technique he had learned.

For a while, Sasuke looks like dancing with the Sky Cloud Sword in his hand.

Under the moonlight, that vigorous figure resembled a young man who was practicing swordsmanship in Hatake Clan's Residence more than ten years ago.

When Kakashi who was upstairs saw this scene, he showed a happy smile.

"This kind of Sasuke seems to be good too."

Nothing happened in the night, and early the next morning, Kakashi and others declined the invitation from Daimyo to celebrate and set off to return to Konoha.

The group of seven people walked swiftly all the way, and within two days of travel, they returned to Konoha.

In the Hokage Tower, Kakashi and Shikaku reported the mission together.

"So that's the case, is it really that Orochimaru?" Tsunade muttered.

"Yes, and it feels like Orochimaru has performed another Fushi Tensei (Living Corpse Reincarnation)," Kakashi said.

"Fushi Tensei? This guy is still the same as expected. Forget it, it's not easy to find him," Tsunade said.

Hearing this, Kakashi and Shikaku glanced at each other without showing any particular expressions.

Finding Orochimaru is not an easy task. The manpower and material resources spent compared with the actual results are really disproportionate.

Why does most of the S-rank missing-nin can go unpunished?

It is because it is difficult to catch them.

After all, most of the S-rank missing-nin has the Kage level strength. And how many Kage level combat power does a village have?

Why not sending Kage level combat power to hunt down the S-rank missing-nin?

Let's not talk about the problem of wasting resources, if this Kage level combat power is counter-killed, then it will be irritating.

Therefore, even though the S-rank missing-nin has the highest rank of bounty, the intensity of catching them is the lowest.

Unless they happen to meet them, or if this S-rank missing-nin cause great trouble to the village, only then the village try to arrest them.

Otherwise, most Shinobi Villages generally don't care about the S-rank missing-nin.

"By the way, where's the Kusanagi Sword?" Tsunade asked.

"Uh, this…" Kakashi scratched his head embarrassedly.

Tsunade looked at Kakashi and said, "Did you take it?"

"It was originally our loot. Shouldn't it be fine if we take it?" Kakashi said with a smile.

Bang!

With a loud bang, Tsunade's powerful fist hit the desk, and then she said, "What did you say? Say it again?"

"This…Tsunade-sama, isn't it okay?" Kakashi said with a smile.

"Hmph!"

Tsunade snorted coldly and retracted her fist. She then said, "Is it for Sasuke?"

"Yes."

Kakashi is not surprised if Tsunade knew about it. After all, he can't give it to others except Sasuke.

"The workload has doubled recently."

Kakashi rolled his eyes when he heard Tsunade's words. 'Well, I knew that this would be the result.'

Shikaku on the side couldn't help but snickered when he heard this, while showing a gloating expression.

Tsunade didn't pursue the matter of the Kusanagi Sword anymore, just like Kakashi thought. After all, it was just a fake Kusanagi Sword so Tsunade didn't care about it.

But a little revenge is indispensable.

So, in the next few days, Tsunade Tsunade threw a lot of documents to Kakashi, and Kakashi was so busy that he can't do anything else, and he fully experienced what it feels to be someone slave.

Tsunade spent several days of leisure time happily.

And when Kakashi finally got rid of the horror work given by Tsunade, the arrival of a toad broke the tranquility.

Kakashi was resting on the bed at his house, and he suddenly heard a sound.

"Croak!"

"That is… toad?"

Kakashi was taken aback and stand up from the bed. Sure enough, there is a toad on the windowsill.

The toad hopped and jumped onto Kakashi's bed. And then it spewed out a scroll full of saliva from his mouth.

Kakashi then take the scroll and saw that there is a seal on it.

"This is… a letter from Jiraiya-sama?"

Kakashi unlocked the seal, and read the content. After reading it, he couldn't help but frown.

Immediately, Kakashi burned the letter and murmured: "It seems that I need to leave the village again."
