Chapter 855: Kakashi's Dilemma
On the eastern coast of the Land of Fire, Kanpū and Tenkū swaggered to rent a ship and hire a dozen sailors at a bustling pier, then set sail and headed into the deep sea.
Their destination was a deserted island hundreds of kilometers away from the coastline of the Land of Fire. The area of this deserted island is not large, and one use of Nativity of a World of Trees is enough to cover all the island with trees, so that it can be used it as the best place to trap the Flying Thunder God Technique’s user.
However, when Kanpū saw the full view of this island, he didn’t feel too good.
“Isn’t this Land of Whirlpools?” Kanpū stared at the Tenkū in disbelief.
Tenkū crossed his arms and nodded solemnly: “Hundreds of kilometers away from the network cable, a deserted island, remote, rarely visited by people. This island meets all your requirements. I, Ōmadara and Tathagata all agree that this place is great.”
‘What you said make sense, I was speechless for a while...’ Kanpū turned his head away in embarrassment.
As the ship approached the island of the Land of Whirlpools, Kanpū and Tenkū jumped off the ship and walked on the sea directly.
...
Konoha.
Hokage Tower’s rooftop.
Minato watched as the village gradually became lively, but he felt a little irritable.
‘Could it only be that I can only watch as Kanpū fall into a dire situation?’
‘What should I do?!’
Minato pondered deeply, but his mind was in a mess, and he couldn't think straight.
Fortunately, the Anbu Commander, Eagle, who was next to him, has a lot of experience. He soon thought of an idea and said: “Hokage-sama, since we can't stop the Abyss from sending back the information, retrieving Kanpū in time can still save him!”
Minato’s eyes lit up, ‘That’s right, Kanpū left yesterday afternoon, and it has only been less than twenty hours now. We can definitely catch up!’
Minato’s eyes flickered, and he said: “Go and call Kakashi immediately. No, I'll go find him myself!”
As he finished speaking, Minato turned into a blur and disappeared.
Eagle was taken aback: ‘Shouldn’t he let the Anbu look for him?’
...
Ring ring ring......
The piercing alarm clock made Kakashi's head ache. He had stayed up late reading his perverted book last night and almost pulled an all-nighter. Now, he has to get up early today to be the leader of the Military Police Force... ‘Sigh, being a high-ranking official is really tiring.’
Kakashi, with his dead fish eye, lazily got dressed, washed up, and ate breakfast. However, he had only taken a few bites when a gust of wind blew through the window, rushing towards him.
Clank clank clank, the broken glass scattered all over the floor!
“Who?”
Kakashi’s lazy gaze immediately sharpened, and the chopsticks in his hand stabbed fiercely towards the intruder.
‘In other words, once that Abyss takes action, it will definitely be swift and decisive, not allowing Kanpū to escape even with the Flying Thunder God Technique!’
‘Things seemed to be getting very complicated.’
Whoosh!
The wind stopped suddenly, and Kakashi felt a strong force pushing him forward, causing him to take two more steps before stopping abruptly.
He looked around and realized that they are already standing at the village’s gate!
‘How much time has passed?’
‘As expected of Minato-sensei, he’s really the fastest man in the Shinobi World!’
“Kakashi.” Minato looked towards Kakashi, “It's up to you from here.”
“I understand.” Kakashi immediately bit his thumb, formed hand seals, and slammed the ground: “Summoning Technique!”
Bang!
In a puff of smoke, eight Ninken appeared brightly!
The leader, Pakkun, spoke up: “Kakashi, long time no see.”
“Pakkun, do you still remember that guy Kanpū’s scent?” Kakashi asked.
“Yeah, remember, what’s wrong?” Pakkun asked.
“He left the village and may be in danger, so I'm entrusting you to find him as soon as possible!” Kakashi solemnly said.
“Leave it to us.”
Pakkun turned to the seven other dogs behind him and barked a few words in dog language. Then, the eight Ninken scattered in all directions.
Minato knew that Kakashi was a professional in finding people, so he remained silent all the way to avoid causing trouble for him.
“Minato-sensei, let’s follow Pakkun.” Kakashi said, “If there's any news, they will inform Pakkun in time.”
“Okay.” Minato agreed and followed behind Kakashi and Pakkun.
About half an hour later, the Ninken finally got a whiff of Kanpū's scent. The barking of dogs sounded, and Pakkun immediately led Minato and Kakashi to find the Ninken, and then followed the remaining scent of Kanpū to track him. Unfortunately, they were unable to find him, as Kanpū's scent had completely disappeared ten kilometers away.
Pakkun and the other Ninken sniffed around the area but couldn't find Kanpū's scent.
“Kakashi, Yondaime Hokage, this is as far as we can go.” Pakkun lowered his head, “Sorry for not being of much help.”
“It’s okay.” Kakashi comforted him softly and then dismissed them.
Then, he turned to look at Minato, and said solemnly, “Minato-sensei, Kanpū may have used Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport away.”
Minato also guessed this situation and couldn't help but sigh: “We've done everything we could. Now, all we can do is pray for Kanpū's safety.”
