Naruto: The Strongest Kakashi

"We will divide into two groups. One, the enemies luring group Animal Path, Asura Path, and Preta Path. The other is investigation group, Deva Path, Human Path, and Naraka Path. Konan, you are in the investigation group."

"I understand."

Pain's Rinnegan shrank for a while and Konoha's barrier appeared in his eyes.

"Konoha's protection barrier is also in underground and forms a sphere to protect the village. It seems that if an enemy invades, it will give a feed back to the core barrier in the village."

"What are you going to do? It seemed that Itachi and Kisame had easily entered Konoha back then." Konan whispered.

"Itachi used to be a member of Konoha's Anbu. He must know about the barrier's secret sign technique and could easily enter. But I naturally have my own method. Throw the Animal Path from above and use the Reverse Summoning Technique to summon us in. The appearances of creating singular intrusions, and cause multiple attacks, are enough to make the Konoha's higher-up to be confused for a while."

With that said, the Asura Path threw the Animal Path into Konoha!

Whoosh!

The Animal Path passes through the barrier instantly, and at the same time, she already finished forming hand seals!

"Kuchiyose no Jutsu!" (Summoning Technique)

Bang!

At the moment when the Animal Path landed, the other five Pain also appeared in front of her.

"Have we entered Konoha?" The Deva Path murmured, but seeing the environment in front of him made him a little confused.

'There is no one!'

As far as Konoha can be seen, there is no one.

"What happened? What about Konoha's villagers?" The Deva Path asked in doubt.

Konan also appeared behind Pain at this time.

"Pain, something is wrong."

"It seems that the villagers have been evacuated ahead of time. Did they choose to escape without a fight?" The Deva Path said coldly.

"Pain, let's retreat first."

"No, Konoha, as the largest Shinobi Village, won't be able to leave with all of their villagers. It must be that they discover our invasion in advance, so they hide their villagers in the shelter. For now, we just need to find the shelter." The Deva Path said as his eyes started moving around.

At this moment, with a bang, two figures descended from the sky.

It is none other than Sasuke and Naruto!

Both of them carried terrifying aura at this moment.

If someone takes a closer look, they would see that in Sasuke's eyes, the six-pointed star pattern appeared, looking extremely cold.

Naruto's eyes are also no longer sky blue color, but are frog eyes, and red eyeshadows appeared near his eyes.

Mangekyō Sharingan Sasuke, and Sage Mode Naruto !

The sudden movement attracted the attention of the Six Paths of Pain and Konan.

Pain then looked at the two.

"Oh? I'm really lucky. I didn't expect to find it so soon, Kyūbi's Jinchūriki, Uzumaki Naruto."

Pain's indifferent eyes fell on Naruto and Sasuke.

At the same time, Pain also felt the different aura from the two of them.

"Mangekyō Sharingan and Sage Mode? Interesting."

Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other, and both saw each other's changes.

"Sasuke, you have got stronger."

"Hmph, so are you."

"Yeah, Kakashi-sensei used to fend off all dangers for us. Now it's our turn to protect Konoha, to protect this place replacing Kakashi-sensei."

"Of course."

"Then, let's go and defeat him! Revenge for Kakashi-sensei!"

"Um!"

After the two finished conversing, they rushed towards Pain at the same time.

"Raiton: Chidori Eisō!" (Lightning Release: Chidori Sharp Spear)

Sasuke let out a low shout, and lightning shot out from his left hand, stabbing towards the Six Paths of Pain.

"Scatter!"

The Deva Path shouted, and the seven figures instantly scatter.

The Chidori Sharp Spear returned without success, and Sasuke and Naruto stopped their steps. They stand with their back facing each other, looking at the enemies around them.

The seven people spread out and surrounded Sasuke and Naruto.

"They're fast." Sasuke whispers.

"The number of enemies is seven, the Six Paths of Pain, plus the so-called angel. According to Ero-Sennin's analisys, the Six Paths of Pain, each of the six people can only use one of the ability. What is certain is that one is a Summoning Technique user, one can absorb any Ninjutsu, one can release missiles and the other's ability is still unknown. As for the woman, she's using Paper Ninjutsu," Naruto said.

"Six different abilities and Paper Ninjutsu? It's really troublesome. Did the seriously injured Kakashi-sensei fight against these monsters alone for some time? It's really terrifying." Sasuke said with a frown.

"No matter how terrifying the enemy is, we have to defeat them! Because we are all Kakashi-sensei's students!" Naruto shouted.

"Yeah!"

On the Hokage Rock in the distance, the silver-white haired figure quietly looked at the battlefield.

Whoosh!

The sound of breaking through the air sounded, and a figure landed beside Kakashi.

"Shisui, you are here."

"Well, what are you going to do? Would you really just let Naruto and Sasuke fight against the Six Paths of Pain by themselves?" Shisui asked in doubt.

Kakashi shook his head and said: "Although Mangekyō Sharingan and Sage Mode are powerful, they have a low chance of winning against the complete Six Paths of Pain."

"Then why you still let them both fight?" Shisui was a little puzzled.

"The Fourth Shinobi World War is close at hand. Both Naruto and Sasuke are important combat powers in the future war. They need a battle against strong enemy to improve their combat experience. Pain is the best choice. At the same time, the Rinnegan's ability is also something they must adapt to."

"Do you really think the Akatsuki will start the Fourth Shinobi World War?"

"Of course, after all, right now, the Akatsuki has collected seven Bijū. Whether they have this ambition or not, they have already touched the nerves of the Five Great Shinobi Villages. Not to mention, at this time, Itachi and Kisame have already set off and on their way to capture Hachibi."

"It looks like Itachi would be back soon." Shisui said with a smile.

"Yeah, Itachi's job as a spy has almost come to an end now. Hachibi mustn't be captured. Unlike the other Bijū to the other villages, the relationship between Hachibi's Jinchūriki, Killer B with the Yondaime Raikage is extremely good. If Hachibi is really captured, the Yondaime Raikage will inevitably hate Itachi and it may have an impact on the relationship between Kumogakure and Konoha in the future."

"I'm thinking about how to welcome Itachi back." Shisui said with a smile.

Hearing this, Kakashi helplessly said: "Now is not the time to think about it. We'll talk about welcoming Itachi later."

"Well, since you have said that."

"How do you feel about returning to Konoha this time?" Kakashi said with a smile.

"Feel? There is nothing special about it. It's just that compared to the heavy burden in Konoha before, this time, I can rest easy after coming back."

"Rest easy? It's not that simple. The Root's matter is still waiting for you to solve." Kakashi said with a smile.

Shisui scratched the back of his head, and said helplessly: "Kakashi, I haven't returned to Konoha yet, but you already giving me such a hard job."

"Sooner or later you need to do it. After all, the position of the Root's leader has been reserved for you."

"Huh? Then I am very curious. Who do you want to give the Anbu Commander's position? My Rokudaime-sama." Shisui said with a smile.

"Anbu Commander?"

Kakashi whispered softly, looking farther away.
