Might Guy once carried out missions with Kakashi and Obito when they were trainee ninjas. Because they were both disciples of Mu Yue, Kakashi was not worried that Might Guy's joining the team would affect the overall teamwork.
But Genma Shiranui and Ebisu also joined. After careful consideration, Kakashi decided to maintain the status quo and complete the B-level tasks to run in the team. After a period of running-in, he will upgrade the task level.
Kakashi doesn't need Shiranui Genma and Ebisu to make too much contribution. After all, there is a gap in strength. Kakashi is mainly worried that the lack of coordination will bring negative impact to the team.
Neither Shiranui Genma nor Ebisu were the type of people who were both bad at playing around. They consciously assisted others and did not rush forward to show off themselves in battle. After a few days, they got along quite well.
"It's so comfortable to team up with you guys. The mission was completed without me noticing. I really want to continue teaming up with you guys." Shiranui Genma said in a joking tone.
In fact, to a certain extent, this is also what Genjian Shiranui really thinks. It is indeed easy to team up with Kakashi and others, which is even easier than doing D-level missions in Konoha.
Because the number of enemies was not enough for the main players in their team, the main players could not even get a few shots, let alone the auxiliary players, who were rewarded just for being a supporting role.
"Hahaha, we are an elite team after all." A proud smile appeared on Obito's face.
Although their ninja level is still only Chunin, the overall strength of their four-member team has long surpassed that of a normal team led by a Jonin.
"I will tell Teacher Chen about your suggestion." Ebisu said softly.
Shiranui Genjian's expression froze, and then he smiled awkwardly, "There's no need to report this little thing to him."
After being taught by Teacher Chen for so long, doesn't Genma Shiranui understand Teacher Chen's temper? If he tells it, he will definitely be beaten up.
Teacher Chen usually does not put on airs and is very easy-going, but when it comes to the growth of his disciples, he has his own set of requirements.
They can choose not to complete tasks that are beyond their capabilities, but they cannot just enjoy the results of the tasks as a bystander.
In fact, Shiranui Genjian also understood that it was not that Teacher Chen was rigid in thinking that getting something for nothing was bad, but that it was not conducive to their growth.
After all, for Teacher Chen to still read that kind of book in public at his age cannot be considered rigid.
After completing two B-rank missions, Kakashi felt that he had gotten used to the task and started taking on A-rank missions.
One thing worth mentioning happened in the middle. They met Might Guy's father Might Dai at the camp.
Combining what he saw and heard in the camp with the actual situation on the battlefield, Kakashi had a hunch that a large-scale ninja war would soon break out on the east coast of the Fire Nation.
Konoha not only dispatched Konoha's signature strongman like Orochimaru, but also summoned a considerable number of jonin and chunin. Even a low-key strongman like Mu Yue was sent to the battlefield. This was obviously the rhythm of doing something big.
Kakashi was not too worried. With their ninja level, they could not accept important combat missions, but protecting themselves in the melee was not a problem.
"I've finally started the A-rank mission. I hope I can meet stronger enemies this time." Obito clenched his fists and looked eager to try.
Hearing Obito's words, Kakashi paused, "This is not an ordinary mission. If something unexpected happens during a war mission, we may encounter a powerful enemy that we cannot resist."
Kakashi didn't want Obito to maintain this mentality on the battlefield, as it could easily lead to problems.
"I'm not Kakashi, so such an accident won't happen to me, right?" Obito felt that he couldn't be as bad-mouthed as Kakashi.
Kakashi's highest record is four consecutive missions with accidents, the most serious of which was when he accidentally entered a ninja war involving thousands of people.
Kakashi looked at Obito speechlessly. It was indeed uncommon for major accidents to occur, but that was not the point. He just wanted Obito to adjust his mentality.
"What I mean is that you should be more serious and careful in dealing with war. It doesn't mean that there will be accidents in this mission if you say that." Kakashi explained helplessly.
Obito scratched his head, as if he understood, but also as if he didn't understand.
Kakashi gave up explaining upon seeing this. He once again felt the power of Mu Yue's teaching ability.
Mu Yue was able to teach Obito to pass the theoretical exam. Her teaching ability is truly godly.
If it were Kakashi's turn, Kakashi would probably collapse before Obito got impatient.
The mission went smoothly. Kakashi and his team successfully found the enemy described in the mission. The enemy's combat power did not vary much, with one Kirigakure jonin, two Kirigakure chuunin and two Kirigakure genin.
But not long after the battle began, the perceptive Kakashi suddenly sensed something and immediately withdrew.
Swoosh!
Two sharp kunai carrying lightning pierced through the air and pierced into the open space where Kakashi had just stood.
"He actually dodged it." Hei Chu Lei Ya was a little surprised.
He, a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, sneak attacked a boy who looked about ten years old and actually failed to hit him. Even with various factors, he would definitely be laughed at if the news got out.
As Hei Chu Lei Ya expected, his teammates laughed at him without any hesitation.
"Hei Chu Lei Ya, didn't you have enough to eat when you came here?" The Tong Cao Ye Baiter laughed loudly.
Hei Chu Lei Ya's face was slightly dark and he didn't explain. The attack just now was indeed a bit embarrassing.
The sudden change caused Obito and others to temporarily stop their attack and look around vigilantly.
"We're saved." The besieged Kirigakure jonin breathed a sigh of relief and showed a surprised expression when he saw Kurochu Raiga and Tousou Yaito approaching.
As a senior ninja of Kirigakure, of course he couldn't be unaware of Kirigakure's Seven Ninja Swordsmen. The first time he saw them, he knew he was saved.
The Kirigakure jonin didn't care about his badly injured subordinates, and immediately used the body-flickering technique to close the distance between him and the approaching Kurochu Raiga and Tonggusa Yabaito.
"Two new enemies? You can't run away." Obito was not panicked. Even if the two new enemies were senior ninjas, they could handle them with ease.
But what Obito didn't notice was that Kakashi's expression gradually became serious and even nervous.
"Oh no." Kakashi's heart skipped a beat after seeing who was coming.
How could Kakashi, who likes to collect intelligence, miss the enemy intelligence on his battlefield? He instantly recognized that the two men were Kurochu Raiga and Togusa Yaito from the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
If it were just the two of them, Kakashi wouldn't actually feel too much pressure.
Their seven-member team has four jonin-level fighters, plus one special medical jonin and two chunins. It's hard to say who will win or lose if they fight.
But if Kakashi remembered correctly, on this battlefield, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist liked to act in groups, which meant that when you saw one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, you had actually met all of them, but the others had not come out yet.
No matter how confident Kakashi was in the strength of their team, he was not sure if he could fight against the entire Seven Ninja Swordsmen. The Seven Ninja Swordsmen together were as powerful as those who were famous in the ninja world.
Even if Konoha's Ino-Shika-Chou came, they would be slightly inferior.
"Obito, and everyone else, don't act rashly." Kakashi said after taking a deep breath.
"Make some big noise to attract reinforcements? There's too much uncertainty. Maybe the first ones to come are the enemies..." At this moment, Kakashi was frantically thinking about how to keep more people alive.
Obito looked at Kakashi with a puzzled look on his face, and searched his mind for information about the several Kirigakure in front of him, but in the end he could not come up with an answer.
Ebisu raised his sunglasses, his fingers trembling slightly, "These seem to be the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Kirigakure. They like to act as a group. Maybe the remaining five are hiding in the dark."
Ebisu's heart was pounding, and the moment he recognized him, he couldn't help but sweat on his forehead.
This was really exciting for him, encountering such a powerful enemy with terrifying strength in a war.
"I have such bad luck today." Genma Shiranui swallowed, as if he had already seen his own tragic death.
Genma Shiranui believes in the strength of Kakashi, Might Guy and the others, but the enemies they encounter this time are different.
Kakashi and his friends are genius ninjas, while the Seven Ninja Swordsmen are the strong men in the ninja world who have grown up!
Shiranui Genma has never wanted to see Teacher Chen so much. He really hopes that Teacher Chen will use the Konoha Dragon God to descend from the sky and knock the enemy away.
But Genma Shiranui knew that this was impossible, because Teacher Chen had not yet arrived at the battlefield, so it was certainly impossible for him to drop from the sky to save them.
"So it's the Seven Ninja Swordsmen." When Obito heard Ebisu say the enemy's title, he finally remembered some information about the other party.
Obito did not succeed in memorizing their appearances, but he still remembered some basic information. There were seven members in the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and each of them had a ninja sword with special powers.
Thinking of what he said before leaving, Obito's expression became subtle. How could he become a crow's mouth?
"I really shouldn't talk nonsense before leaving." Obito felt a little regretful.
Might Guy's expression also became solemn. Obito knew the information about the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, so naturally Might Guy knew it too.
"I hope this isn't a group mission," Ebisu prayed silently.
If it were just two people, they would still have a little hope.
But the next person who came out, Biwa Juzo, completely shattered Ebisu's hope.
Biwa Juzo walked out slowly from the darkness carrying a huge ninja sword, and glanced at Kakashi and the others with a bloodthirsty look on his face.
"I've really encountered a weakling who is particularly easy to bully. Let's end the battle quickly." Biwa Juzang put the beheading sword down from his shoulder, leaned on the sword with one hand and said.
As soon as Biwa Juuzou finished speaking, a larger orange-haired ninja walked out.
"Biwa Juzo, these are not weaklings who are easy to bully. Three of them are Konoha geniuses who need to be killed first." Xiguashan Puffer Demon said in a deep voice.
"Hatake Kakashi, Might Guy, and Uchiha Obito, these three must be killed right here and now!"
Unlike Biwa Juzo, Xiguashan Pufferfish Demon believes that they are very lucky this time. Killing three Konoha geniuses is much more meaningful than killing several ordinary Konoha jonin.
If Kakashi and the other two are not killed here now, in a dozen or dozens of years, war will break out again between Kirigakure and Konoha, and perhaps Kakashi and the others will become Kirigakure's new powerful enemies.
"Isn't a genius who hasn't grown up a weakling?" Biwa Juzang laughed disdainfully. Who wasn't a genius once?
When he was a Genin and Chunin, he was also a well-known genius ninja in the Hidden Mist.
As the Seven Ninja Swordsmen walked out one by one, Kakashi's heart sank to the bottom.
Not to mention other things, even seven ordinary jonin are not easy to deal with, and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen who are famous in the ninja world are obviously not ordinary jonin.
In addition to the Kirigakure jonin who they have not killed yet, the enemies they now need to deal with are seven titled jonin plus one ordinary jonin of Kirigakure.
Obito silently walked to Nohara Rin and protected her behind him. They were facing an unprecedented crisis.
Even the two previous encounters with the Raikage candidates were not as dangerous as it is now.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen may not be able to defeat the AB combination of Kumogakure, but when they met the AB combination, they either had Mu Yue or Namikaze Minato by their side. This time, both Mu Yue and Namikaze Minato are not there, so they can only rely on their own strength.
Everyone subconsciously moved towards Kakashi, including Obito. Kakashi was not the strongest in the team, but as the vice-captain, he was the absolute core of the team.
The reason why Obito still did not vote for Kakashi in the second vote was not because Obito did not recognize Kakashi as the vice-captain, but because he knew that his vote was insignificant. If he did not vote for others, they would definitely vote for Kakashi. In the end, Kakashi became the vice-captain.
Instead of voting to admit defeat, he might as well vote for Nohara Rin, which would also express his respect and recognition for Nohara Rin.
"Kakashi, what should we do now?" Shiranui Genma couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Kakashi sighed slightly. He was just a slightly better Chunin. Faced with such a situation, it was impossible for him to come up with a perfect solution in such a short time.
Kakashi quickly glanced at the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. They were standing very loosely, as if they did not regard the people opposite them as normal enemies.
But Kakashi knew that this was only an appearance. The seemingly loose stance actually blocked most of their escape routes. If they wanted to retreat and escape, there would definitely be two people among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen who could instantly block their retreat.
"What should I do?" Kakashi asked himself.
As the one with the fastest burst speed in the team, Kakashi had the best chance of escaping successfully, but Kakashi could not bring himself to run away no matter what.
He can leave, and Might Guy also has the hope of leaving, so what about the rest?
Kakashi now doesn't want to abandon his companions at all costs.
Kakashi silently pulled out the White Fang short blade on his back. Since he didn't want to run, the only thing left was to fight.
Even if the enemy is the famous Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Ninja World, he must fight to give his teammates a chance of survival. This is his responsibility as the vice-captain.
