"What's going on?" Kakashi, who got up early to brush his teeth, saw himself in the mirror and was stunned. He didn't even notice that he squeezed out way too much toothpaste!
Kakashi quickly put down the toothbrush and toothpaste and leaned toward the mirror. He checked his reflection on the mirror thoroughly and touched his left eye with his hand.
Finally, he confirmed that he was not seeing things. The three tomoe on his Sharingan disappeared and was replaced by three stretched triangles evenly spaced around the pupil that each curved at the top around the eye to form a circle, making it similar to pinwheel.
"Is this Mangekyō Sharingan that Squad Leader Nagasawa mentioned...?" Kakashi murmured as he looked at the mirror.
After the changes that occurred to his eyes, he concluded that it was either the aftereffect of the masked man's Illusion Technique, or some unknown technique was silently used on him, so reported this to Nagasawa immediately.
Nagasawa took him to Tsunade and checked him. Tsunade said he was very healthy and there was no problem.
Then Nagasawa took him to Orochimaru, and after Orochimaru checked, he also said that there was no problem with Kakashi's body.
He took him to Tsunade to see if he suffered some unknown injury, and he took him to Orochimaru to see if some sort of Curse Mark was left on Kakashi's body.
Since both said there was no problem with Kakashi, Nagasawa knew the reason.
Nagasawa told Kakashi that this should not be a problem with his body, but his Sharingan was going to evolve and become Mangekyō Sharingan.
At that time, Kakashi was a little confused, as he didn't know there was such a thing called Mangekyo Sharingan.
This was the first time Kakashi heard the word "Mangekyō Sharingan".
Then Nagasawa explained to Kakashi in detail that there was a higher-level Sharingan above the three-tomoe Sharingan, which was Mangekyō Sharingan. However, because only a handful people possessed it, most people basically didn't know about it.
At the same time, Nagasawa also told Kakashi that the masked man who attacked Minato that day had Mangekyō Sharingan. He also told Kakashi that the current Uchiha Clan's patriarch, Fugaku Uchiha, also had Mangekyō Sharingan.
Moreover, each Mangekyō Sharingan's ability differed from each other, such as Fugaku's floating power, and the masked man's ability to pass through everything.
"So, what is my ability?" Kakashi thought that he had not felt anything when he just woke up. Now that he was awake, he could feel that he had a new ability.
He looked at the sink. Because he was distracted when he was squeezing toothpaste, there was a lot of toothpaste spilled there now.
Kakashi concentrated and used his Mangekyo Sharingan's ability on the toothbrush.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!" Kakashi felt that a large amount of Chakra in his body was being drained by the Mangekyō Sharingan in his left eye. Such a huge consumption made him pant.
However, what surprised Kakashi was that a burst of transparent fluctuations appeared on the sink, as if space was being distorted.
Kakashi backpedaled, afraid that there would be any bad effects if he got too close.
Soon, after the transparent waves disappeared, not only the toothpaste, but even half of the sink disappeared.
Kakashi stepped forward and gently touched the remaining half of the sink. The cut was very smooth, indicating that it was done extremely fast.
"It's a good offensive ability, but it costs too much Chakra." Kakashi frowned.
At this distance, the target was only a sink, and it actually consumed three-quarters of his chakra in an instant.
"What's the matter?" When Hanabira woke up, she saw Kakashi talking to himself in the bathroom, so she asked Kakashi while rubbing her sleepy eyes.
"Kakashi, why do you suddenly have so little Chakra?" Hanabira felt as if had just gone through a hard battle as he was completely exhausted.
"Hey, where does half of the sink go?" Hanabira found another problem the moment she entered the bathroom.
Kakashi scratched his hair in embarrassment and said,
"I just tried a new move. I didn't expect it consume this much Chakra, and I accidentally make half of the sink disappear."
"You are about to become a father. You have to pay attention to your body. Don't practice some strange Ninjutsu. If you drain too much Chakra learning that ability, you will hurt your body."
Hanabira chuckled when she heard Kakashi's answer.
Kakashi nodded and promised that he would not use this Ninjutsu unless it was an emergency.
He might consider using this in the future if he could have so much Chakra that he would not collapse after using this ability once or twice.
After conducting some experiments and research, Kakashi found that he did not need to keep his Sharingan at Mangekyo Sharingan state at all times. He could just revert it to the three-tomoe state instead.
This made Kakashi feel a little relieved. Since his Sharingan was active all the time, it constantly consumed his Chakra that he had to cover it with something.
If awakening Mangekyo Sharingan further drained his Chakra, Kakashi would be at a loss.
He did get a new powerful move, but it would leave him incapacitated just after one use. If he wasn't careful, this new ability would put him in a dire spot instead of helping him.
After washing up and eating the breakfast that Hanabira prepared for him, Kakashi changed into his Anbu uniform and went to Anbu's base.
The Fourth Hokage Anbu still shared the same base as the Third Hokage Anbu. A new base for the Fourth Hokage Anbu was scheduled to be built in October, but after the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's attack, the Ninja World was now in turbulent.
Many countries thought that Konoha might have suffered a great loss that night, and they began to have some funny ideas about Konoha, the winner of the Third Shinobi World War.
Therefore, the construction of the Fourth Hokage Anbu's base was delayed. After all, there might be another war. Their defense had to be good, and there was no time to build a new base.
In Kakashi's opinion, Anbu base was much more deserted than before. Many the Third Hokage Anbu were nowhere to be seen. Kakashi felt that they should be patrolling around the border.
When he walked to the training ground, Kakashi just happened to meet Shisui. The two greeted each other walking their own way. Kakashi went to the captain's office of the training team, while Shisui went to the exclusive room of the Fourth Squad.
On the way to the Fourth Squad, Shisui looked back at Kakashi. He felt that Kakashi was different from usual, but he could not tell what had changed from him.
