Chapter 3 Flagwood Sword Technique
In the early morning, the first ray of sunlight shines through the window on the hospital bed where the quilt has been folded.
Kakashi, who had not slept all night, had returned home early, changed into black clothes, and arrived at the burial place.
Yes, today is Hatake Sakumo's funeral.
As the coffin made of paulownia wood was placed in the grave, the third generation turned to look at Kakashi, who silently shook his head.
So Sandai raised his left hand slightly, and the ANBU ninja beside him came out, formed a seal with his hands and pressed them in front of the tomb.
"Escape·Burial!"
The soil on both sides quickly rose toward the middle, forming a hemispherical tomb.
Seeing this, Sandai moved to the commemorative monument, looked at the newly carved Hatake Sakumo on it, and began to tell the visitors about his life achievements.
There were not many people behind him. They were all dressed in black and holding white flowers for commemoration.
Kakashi watched all this silently, feeling a sense of sadness in his heart. After the soul fusion, he also inherited some of the emotions of the original owner.
This shadow-level powerhouse who was once so famous that even three ninjas were in awe of him has now become history.
Kakashi also lost his only relative.
After a while, the third generation finished his speech.
The third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had presided over the ceremony, had now walked in front of Kakashi.
"Kakashi, Sakumo is the hero of the village. Now that he has left, I will be your relative from now on, and the villagers in the village will be your relative."
Kakashi was silent.
Seeing this, the third generation sighed and said nothing more.
He knew he had to give Kakashi time to digest the pain.
The funeral lasted a day.
In the evening, Kakashi dragged his tired body back to Hatake's home. Oh yes, it is his own home now.
The empty room was very deserted. After Kakashi briefly washed himself, he lay on the bed and fell asleep.
He was so tired.
......
After an unknown amount of time, Kakashi woke up in a daze.
Refreshed, he rose and went into White Fang's room.
I found the inconspicuous "Geography of the Land of Fire" in the corner of the bookshelf and pulled it hard.
I saw the bookshelf in front of me move slowly, revealing the secret door behind it.
Kakashi approached the secret door, formed a special seal with his hands, and pressed the energy concentration point on the door lock.
With a soft click, the secret door opened automatically, revealing the stairs leading underground.
Kakashi took out the flashlight from the desk drawer and walked down the steps.
A secret room made of blue hemp stone and the same size as the room above came into view.
There are three rows of bookshelves in the dark room, with hundreds of scrolls stored according to different categories.
Ignoring the part about recording family secrets and ninjutsu, Kakashi directly picked up the long-dusted "Hatake Sword Technique".
Swordsmanship, the foundation of the Hatake clan, the unique skill of Konoha White Fang across the battlefield, is also the secret technique that Kakashi has practiced for since he was a child.
Different from the swordsmanship that ordinary people understand, Hatake swordsmanship is essentially a ninjutsu.
Its biggest feature is that it can be combined with chakra of different attributes to produce completely different effects with the same sword technique.
Due to the inherent characteristics of the Hatake clan with all attributes, successive generations of family heads have developed varying degrees of abilities based on their own strengths.
Among them, the most accomplished ones are the flame blade combined with fire, the wind blade combined with wind, and the thunder blade combined with thunder.
The flame blade explodes, and the sword light combined with the air can produce a violent explosion;
The wind blade is sharp, and with one swing, the enemy will be torn into pieces;
The thunder blade penetrates, and after practicing to the extreme, even Susanoo can penetrate with one sword!
Unfortunately, Hatake sword technique is easy to learn but difficult to master.
If you want to succeed, you must go through life-and-death battles again and again!
At the same time, the cultivator himself must have an extremely strong physique and a huge amount of chakra as support!
This resulted in an extremely high death rate for ordinary tribesmen.
As a result, the population has withered away, and in Hatake Kakashi's generation, he is the only one left.
Thinking of this, Kakashi couldn't help but sigh secretly.
If he accidentally gets cold, there will be no successor to Hatake's sword skills.
After reading the sword technique scroll, Kakashi put it away close to his body.
As for the other ninjutsu scrolls, Kakashi didn't move them. He didn't need them yet.
With his own system, he can master it instantly as long as someone performs ninjutsu in front of him.
Instead of spending time practicing these things now, it is better to focus on and lay a good physical foundation. This is the way to go!
After walking out of the secret room and restoring everything, Kakashi used his skills and quickly arrived at the waterfall in the Konoha Forest.
I saw him taking off his shoes and socks, walking barefoot across the water, and standing under the waterfall.
Different from the basic climbing of trees and treading water, it is more difficult to accurately control the body shape under the violent impact of the waterfall!
Fortunately, White Fang had taken him through similar training before, so he avoided the fate of being washed into the current.
After stabilizing his body, Kakashi closed his eyes and adjusted his body to a unique rhythm in conjunction with Hatake's unique breathing.
Suddenly, Kakashi opened his eyes and quickly drew his sword!
Lift, chop, pare, stab, chop, cut, block, press, collapse, pick, hang.
The basic movements that were already well-familiar have become many times more difficult under the wash of the waterfall!
Kakashi gritted his teeth, and while ensuring that his movements were not deformed, he swung the sword a thousand times with each movement!
After an unknown amount of time, Kakashi, who was finally exhausted, struggled to climb ashore from the water, collapsed on the shore, and gasped for air.
The training beyond his physical limit made his consciousness a little blurry, and he wanted to fall asleep.
But his remaining sense told him that if he fell here, he would be lucky enough to avoid the beasts that came to the river to drink water.
With his soaked clothes alone, once night comes, the loss of body temperature can easily kill him!
So he forced himself to stand up, as if stepping on cotton, and walked towards the village with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Finally, Kakashi reluctantly returned home. After a brief rinse, he fell on the bed and fell asleep.
......
one year later.
A silver-haired boy was dexterously wielding the sword under the waterfall. His body was as light as a dancing elf.
The young man suddenly sheathed his knife and retreated, holding his breath and concentrating.
His left hand is holding the scabbard, and his right hand is holding the handle of the knife. The whole person transitions from movement to stillness, faintly blending into the surroundings.
With the movement of chakra, the boy could clearly feel that an uncontrollable force was gathering in his right hand.
Gradually, the palm holding the handle of the knife began to vibrate...
It's now!
"Hatake Style·Wind Blade·Drawing Sword!"
Kakashi shouted deeply, and the sword in his right hand, which was ready to go, suddenly slashed towards the waterfall in front!
In an instant, a half-moon-shaped sword flashed past, cutting off the waterfall in front of it in the shape of a "one"!
"Whoo~"
After drawing a sword, Kakashi put away the sword and breathed a sigh of relief.
During this year, he continued to practice swordsmanship every day, and he has been experimenting with the changes in the nature of wind-attribute chakra.
Perhaps it was God who rewarded his hard work. At this moment, he finally mastered the wind blade!
"Counting the days, tomorrow is the opening ceremony of the new school year."
Putting aside his joy, Kakashi thought to himself.
Unlike the original work, Kakashi did not choose to graduate early and become a genin because of White Fang's death.
Compared with those genin tasks of catching cats and dogs, he needs enough training.
So after getting through the initial painful special training, your body gradually adapts.
While training, he always maintained the existence of the shadow clone.
Therefore, all the classes at the Ninja School were taken care of by the shadow clones, and no one except Rin and Obito was discovered for the time being.
And every time Kai, who didn't know the inside story, launched a campus challenge, Kakashi used various excuses to fool him.
But for the opening ceremony, you have to be there in person.
After all, with three generations present, one still has to keep a low profile.
