Since Takemi had obtained his 'exclusive' Byakugan, he hadn't had a chance to use it in actual combat. This was a good opportunity. Kakashi was pulled away by Obito, and Guy also had to deal with Hidan. None of them were close. But to ensure there were no issues, he still covered his entire body with Purple Lightning, making his Byakugan less noticeable. 'It's a pity I haven't developed Lightning Release Chakra Mode yet, but I can pretend with Eight Inner Gates.' Guy had no information on Hidan, and even though he was a person who was rough yet meticulous, Takemi still had to be careful. Buzz— Accompanied by the sound of tearing air, the short sword had already slashed towards Kakuzu. 'Lightning Release Chakra Mode? This kid knows that move too?' Takemi was indeed 'faking' it, but in Kakuzu's eyes, it was different. Such speed, such power, could it be fake? Being an experienced master, Kakuzu retreated almost instantly, the blade imbued with Purple Lightning barely grazing his forehead. Boom— Although the attack didn't fully connect, the blade severed a large section of trees behind him, the falling logs creating a series of roars. 'This kid is tougher to deal with than I imagined!' Kakuzu's peripheral vision swept over the ravaged forest behind him, and the corner of his lips twitched. This was no ordinary brat. He had to strike with full force. But in an instant, Takemi pressed forward again, the short sword thrusting directly at Kakuzu's throat. Wind Chakra suddenly erupted from Kakuzu's body, making him seem more agile. Earth Release: Earth Spear! After he immediately ducked to avoid the blade, the Chakra within his body changed again. One of his fists suddenly detached from his body, striking towards Takemi with black tendrils. With his other hand, he tore open his clothes, revealing his body covered in stitches. "Hmph!" Following a strange growl, three white-masked monsters, composed entirely of black threads, burst out from his body. 'The Earth Grudge Fear Technique?' Takemi blocked the fist with a single slash, his Byakugan rapidly scanning everything. His Byakugan appeared very peculiar, as if it were in the normal deactivated state, without the bulging veins that usually appeared upon activation, which allowed him to conceal it better. He could clearly see both Kakuzu and the three masked monsters, and even everything around them. 'Guy-sensei is very cautious, with no intention of trading blows, and Kakashi-sensei is fine for now with the information he has, but how does this guy have a missing heart?' Just then, one of the monsters opened its mouth, and in an instant, countless fireballs condensed and shot towards Takemi. Boom, boom, boom— Continuous explosions rang out, but at this moment, the Purple Lightning on Takemi's body deepened, protecting him completely. Moreover, he was like a phantom. No matter how numerous the fireballs were, he seemed to be able to clearly see their attack paths. 'Indeed, just as I thought before, I can see things much more clearly now.' As Takemi dodged, he thought to himself. He had noticed that his perception seemed quite great when he had first activated his eyes. And now, it further confirmed his hypothesis. He might truly have been influenced by a Tailed Beast, or by Obito. "Did this cause my eyes to possess some characteristics of the Sharingan?" Takemi wasn't sure, but he knew this was a good thing for him. Moreover, the blood-boiling effect brought by Eight Inner Gates was indeed excellent. 'My abilities have indeed increased, but they haven't reached the level I want yet, so...' The next instant, his aura became even more turbulent. 'I'll use this opportunity to see what my limits are.' ..... "Yoho!" On the other side, Hidan's speed increased. He continuously swung the scythe in his right hand and a short sword in his left towards Guy. "What Konoha's arrogant Blue Beast, aren't you just a Kappa?!" "Are you going to fight or not? You keep dodging. If you're not going to fight, just offer yourself as a sacrifice to me!" Hidan's habit of rambling continued. While constantly attacking, he muttered, and Guy's expression was a bit strange. "This lunatic seems unusual, doesn't he?" Guy had previously kicked him in the head, only to find that he got back up to continue fighting as if nothing had happened. A normal person would have died long ago. Moreover, his attitude just now was also nonchalant, as if he didn't care at all. And in the subsequent combat, he hit this guy several times, but he was still full of vigor. "Is his recovery ability extremely high?" Guy had a guess in his mind, and as he watched the two continuously flying weapons, his eyes narrowed. "I know!" "He could clearly attack me with other more efficient and simple methods, but he insists on continuously slashing me with his weapons." "This can only mean one thing..." Guy lowered his head, dodging the scythe above him, then shifted his body to the left, avoiding Hidan's short sword, while quickly creating distance to evade the scythe being pulled back from behind him. In his heart, he already had a clearer answer. "His weapons must be poisoned, that's why he's always trying to cut me to poison me to death!" With this realization, Guy already knew what he had to do. Since his recovery ability was extremely great, he might not be able to kill him soon but broken bones shouldn't recover that quickly, right? And if the weapons are poisoned... "Although your method is despicable, I won't blame you." Guy landed steadily, then shouted at Hidan. "Huh?" Hidan looked at Guy in confusion, wondering what was up with this guy now. Then, Guy's entire body suddenly surged with Chakra. Eight Inner Gates, Open! I'm faster than you, let's see how you'll cut me! Immediately, he gave Hidan a thumbs-up, his white front teeth gleaming in the sunlight. "I will show you the true, honorable power of youth!" "Eh?" "Leaf Hurricane!" ..... "What a hassle..." Kakashi looked at Obito not far away, and he too was panting slightly. Thanks to Takemi's information, he had a general idea of Obito's actual abilities, allowing him to barely cope. But it was only barely coping, because with that ability, as long as the user was serious and tried not to reveal any flaws, it was truly difficult to deal with. "As a teacher, I'm truly unqualified..." Kakashi felt a bit self-deprecating. Takemi had made Obito suffer losses the first time, and completely defeated him the second, yet he himself was somewhat disheveled. "The Sharingan isn't meant to be used like that. Do you understand the difference between us now?" Obito's voice was cold, and he seemed to shake his head in boredom. "But it doesn't matter, it's time to end this!" As soon as he finished speaking, his figure instantly moved towards Kakashi, and the iron chain in his hand swept across. Seeing this, Kakashi immediately wanted to evade, but the chain's range was extremely wide, forcing him to react. Whoosh— Raikiri flashed, but it only cut through air, and Obito extended his right hand. "So, it's better if you don't get in the way." Without hesitation, Obito immediately activated 'Kamui', and a distorted vortex appeared around them. But just at this moment, Kakashi himself transformed into a flash of lightning and suddenly exploded. Boom— Accompanied by a muffled thud, Kakashi burst out of the ground, swinging the Raikiri in his hand and fiercely thrusting it towards Obito's back. "Such petty tricks, don't make a fool of yourself." However, Obito slowly turned around, letting Kakashi's Raikiri pass through his body. "I said, it's over!" As Kamui erupted again, Kakashi immediately felt a wave of numbness and chaos, as if spacetime was distorted, making him somewhat disoriented. "This time, I win, Kakashi..." Obito watched Kakashi fall into a state of paralysis, and an inexplicable emotion flashed in his eyes, but it quickly subsided. Being absorbed by Kamui creates a spatial-temporal displacement, and almost no one can dodge it. Currently, only Minato had managed to do it! "So, next..." Obito prepared to put in more effort to absorb Kakashi, so he could go deal with the others. Guy had kicked him, Takemi had schemed against him, these were all 'acquaintances'! "Hm?" However, just as he was about to leave, he suddenly noticed something was wrong. Turning his head, he saw that the distorted vortex had already vanished, and Kakashi was still in the same spot, staring at him. "..." For a moment, both were silent, but Obito saw that the Sharingan in Kakashi's left eye had transformed into a form he was incredibly familiar with. "You!?"
