Chapter 328 – Infinity, Finally Broken
After everyone finished eating, Yusuke passed all the information he knew on to Kakashi. At first, Kakashi wanted to ask Yusuke to step in personally, but Yusuke refused, saying the opponent was simply too weak to bother with.
Kakashi understood that his older brother had no interest in Isshiki, so he didn't press the matter any further.
For Kakashi, as long as his older brother stood behind him, he would never fail. Even though it felt like he was relying too much on Yusuke, there was nothing he could do about it. After all, who told his brother to be that strong?
With someone like that standing behind him, it felt impossible not to depend on him.
During this period, even though Kakashi had already taken on the role of Hokage, he wasn't actually that busy. Kakashi possessed extremely high intelligence.
He delegated most of his authority, and whatever work remained could be handled with Shadow Clones.
The reason Kakashi dared to do this was because of his own strength. He had been deeply influenced by Hatake Yusuke and understood one simple principle: as long as you have power, you can do anything.
Just like Yusuke.
Don't be fooled by his laid-back, carefree attitude. That was all because of his strength. If he didn't have that power, he would be nothing more than a piece on someone else's chessboard.
Hatake Yusuke himself was very aware of this. That was why, ever since Kakashi decided to become a ninja, he had constantly drilled this kind of mindset into him.
Kakashi was influenced by Yusuke as well. He wasn't afraid of betrayal at all. Not to mention, his sister-in-law was the princess of Konoha.
Even if that weren't the case, Kakashi still wouldn't be afraid, because he firmly believed that even if every ninja in the world attacked him together, he could still kill them all.
And on top of that, Hatake Yusuke stood behind him.
"By the way, Kakashi," Sakumo said, "tomorrow is the day you and Yusuke spar again, right?"
"Yeah," Kakashi replied with his usual dead-fish eyes.
"Next time, take it a little farther away from the shop," Sakumo said, looking displeased.
"I get it. I'll just take Nii-san to the Kamui Space," Kakashi said. With Obito's help, this pair of eyes had extremely powerful control.
"That's not necessary," Hatake Yusuke said casually. "I already left a mark in that space. I can come and go freely."
"Uh…" Kakashi fell silent. Could you at least let me, your little brother, show off a bit?
"If it's just sparring, it wouldn't hurt to bring me along too, right?" Madara spoke up at that moment.
"I don't mind," Yusuke said indifferently. "The point is just to help Kakashi train. One person or two, it's all the same."
After that, Kakashi used Kamui to send Madara into the Kamui Space. Meanwhile, Hatake Yusuke casually opened a door in midair.
"Wait, I want to go too. I didn't get to see the last big fight," Kurenai said.
"Fine," Yusuke replied.
Before long, everyone entered the space.
In the shinobi world, there was practically no entertainment to speak of, so something like a post-meal spectacle was definitely not something anyone would refuse. Soon after, the entire group was taken by Yusuke into the Kamui Space.
"Why did everyone come along?" Kakashi complained. He still needed to preserve a bit of his dignity. Having so many people watch him get beaten up was a little too much.
Madara, on the other hand, was different. For him, a fierce battle without spectators felt far too bland.
Yusuke raised his hand and created a barrier in front of everyone to protect them.
"Alright. Let's begin," Yusuke said, slowly taking off his sunglasses as he looked at the two of them.
Madara's face was filled with a smile. Even though he knew he wasn't a match for Yusuke, as a true battle maniac, he still loved fighting. In his life, having a single goal to chase was a kind of blessing.
"Come," Madara said, while Kakashi also took up a fighting stance.
"This time, I won't hold back my abilities," Yusuke said.
Of course, that didn't mean he would use all of his power.
Usually, whenever he sparred with Kakashi, he only used swordsmanship or a single ability. This time, he planned to show off just a little.
Hearing that, the corner of Kakashi's mouth twitched. Not because he was afraid, but because his brother's abilities were simply too many, and they flowed together far too smoothly.
"Wait a second, Nii-san," Kakashi said, as if he suddenly remembered something.
"Nii-san, you can't do that. If you end up destroying this space, everything will be over. Obito and I would be seriously injured," Kakashi said.
He knew very well that Yusuke's abilities weren't just capable of permanently changing the climate, but could also destroy space itself.
"That is troublesome," Yusuke said, touching his chin.
"In that case, you can enter my Origin Space. That space has the same stability as the main world," Kaguya said.
"Then that works," Yusuke replied.
"But right now, I can't open it by myself. I need the power of Uchiha Madara," Kaguya added.
"That won't be necessary," Yusuke said.
He clapped his hands together.
In an instant, everyone vanished from the space. When they appeared again, they were already standing inside Kaguya's dimension.
Kaguya looked shocked.
She knew very well that, even at her peak, forcibly pulling others into her own dimension required an enormous amount of chakra.
Yet Hatake Yusuke had brought everyone into a dimension that didn't even belong to him.
The energy consumption should have been far greater, and his control over space had clearly reached a terrifying level.
"Now we can finally fight without worrying," Madara said.
Even though he was stunned by Yusuke's power, what he wanted right now was a full-on battle.
His previous fight with Isshiki had only been a test of each other's strength. Neither side had truly gone all out.
This time, fighting Hatake Yusuke made his blood boil with excitement.
Meanwhile, Kakashi, no longer burdened by any worries, drew out Enma.
The battle began.
Madara's eyes transformed into the Rinnegan, then evolved further into a Rinnegan patterned with six tomoe.
"Chibaku Tensei," Madara said.
He aimed his palm at Hatake Yusuke.
A powerful gravitational force centered on Yusuke began to pull in the surrounding rocks. The stones shot forward at incredible speed, slamming toward him.
"One Sword Style: Sea Surge," Kakashi shouted, slashing his blade toward Yusuke.
The slash surged forward like a rolling wave, endlessly cascading like ocean tides.
Combined with Madara's Chibaku Tensei, the speed of the attack increased even further. It didn't even need to be aimed.
Everything rushed straight toward Yusuke.
"It's useless," Yusuke said calmly. With his Infinity defense, attacks like this didn't mean anything at all.
"Kamui," Kakashi activated Kamui between the wave of slashes and Yusuke.
A space-time portal opened between the two of them.
"Not bad, Kakashi. It seems you've grown," Madara said, glancing at him.
Based on his understanding of Hatake Yusuke's abilities, Madara immediately grasped Kakashi's plan—using Kamui's spatial distortion to shorten the distance between the slash and Yusuke.
As long as the distance wasn't truly infinite, with Kakashi's power, he should be able to cut Yusuke's real body.
When the wave of slashes approached Yusuke, he immediately knew that Kakashi had found a way to crack his ability.
Even though he hadn't activated Infinity's absolute stopping effect, Yusuke still acknowledged Kakashi's skill.
His little brother really wasn't bad.
Watching the slash draw closer, Yusuke lightly flicked his finger.
The wave shattered into countless fragments.
Even though the space had been weakened, the power behind the attack was no longer as strong as before.
There wasn't the slightest hint of disappointment on Kakashi's face.
On the contrary, just being able to break through that ability filled him with satisfaction.
"Limbo: Border Jail," Madara said, his eyes narrowing.
In an instant, a barrier like a curtain of the sky spread out, with Madara at its center, enveloping both Kakashi and Yusuke.
The transparent, half-sphere-shaped space looked similar to Yusuke's Room.
But unlike Room, everything inside seemed to lose its original colors, turning into a world of black and white.
