"The Fourth Hokage joined the battle and kill all the elite Shinobi led by Toroi."
The Fourth Raikage personally read out the latest information from Yugakure. Then he took a deep breath and put the information on the wooden table.
Every Shinobi who possessed Blood Limit was an asset for a Hidden Village. Even a weak Blood Limit was still valued, let alone a powerful Blood Limit like Magnet Release.
Toroi's death enraged the Fourth Raikage. He wished he could rush to Yugakure and fight Minato right now.
Hearing this bad news, the camp fell into a dead silence. Eventually, Dodai was the first to speak, breaking this awkward atmosphere.
"It seems that the plan is going well. Konoha has taken the bait. Their next course of action should be easier to predict, meaning our chance will come soom." Dodai calmly analyzed.
"We can't let the Toroi's sacrifice be in vain. This time, we must make Konoha pay the price." The Fourth Raikage said in a deep voice.
"Oh! Yay! We must beat up those bastards in Konoha!" Killer B said in his rap tone.
Four days later, the Fourth Raikage once again received news that a large number of Konoha's forces had entered Yugakure. It seemed that they were planning to fight Kumogakure there.
The Fourth Raikage stood up. His height was nearly two meters, so he looked unusually tall and strong in the tent.
"Konoha has taken the bait. Now is the best time for us to attack Land of Fire. We've lost many companions to obtain this opportunity, but I believe that it is worth it, because Kumogakure will defeat Konoha!"
Raikage's rough voice reached every Jonin in the tent, and everyone became excited.
They had been hiding in the mountain for almost a month waiting for this opportunity, and it was certainly hard for the hot-blooded Kumogakure Shinobi.
Hadn't the Fourth Raikage been around, these Kumogakure and Shinobi would not be able to sit still.
"Mobilize all of our men. Tomorrow night, we will officially launch a surprise attack! Kumogakure will win this battle!"
"Kumogakure will definitely win!" a Kumogakure's Jonin also shouted loudly, as if he wanted to vent everything he had endured during this past month.
...
"Squad Leader Nagasawa, are you sure this is the village's project? Why are we going farther and farther?" Kakashi couldn't help but ask as he saw the tall trees around him.
Today was the day of Secondary Hashirama cells' implantation, and because the real Nagasawa had already gone to the battlefield, the current Nagasawa in front of him was the shadow clone that Nagasawa had left in Konoha to do his remaining job.
However, Kakashi felt that the laboratory that Nagasawa took him to was too remote, so remote that he felt that he had left Konoha.
"It's a Shinobi's laboratory after all. There are many hazardous things inside, so it is very reasonable to build in a remote place." Nagasawa explained with a smile.
Hearing this, Kakashi indeed thought that it made sense, but for some reason, Nagasawa's smile seemed a little scary.
Soon, Nagasawa brought Kakashi to a big stone, and Nagasawa quickly made a hand seal.
Rumble!
A loud sound resounded.
The boulder began to move slowly, finally revealing a dark well.
Looking at Kakashi's surprised eyes, Nagasawa smiled again and explained, "The laboratory needs to be well-hidden, so it's built underground."
Kakashi:...
The laboratory that Nagasawa took him to was too much like the lab of evil villains in novels.
Without waiting for Kakashi to say anything, Nagasawa directly grabbed Kakashi's back and carried him into the well.
"Squad Leader Nagasawa, there's no need for that. I can come down by myself." Kakashi stabilized his body and complained.
"I see that you seem to be a little restless. Are you afraid that Hashirama's cells will cause some negative effects on you?" Nagasawa asked while looking into Kakashi's eyes.
Along the way, Nagasawa had long noticed that Kakashi was a little abnormal today. He kept asking questions, like an insecure little girl.
"Another person's cell is about to be implanted into my body, after all. Much less it's the cells of Hashirama-sama. It feels a bit strange." Kakashi nodded.
"Don't worry, there's no problem. This experiment has been carried out many times. Secondary Hashirama cells strengthen the body, and there are no side effects. I haven't made it public because the effect is too strong, so strong that ordinary people can't handle it." Nagasawa explained.
As the Sixth Hokage in the manga, Kakashi was a genius Shinobi. Nagasawa believed that he'd serve him well.
When Kakashi was strong enough, Nagasawa would appoint Kakashi as the Captain of the training team in his place, and had Ensui assist Kakashi.
Nagasawa himself would become the Captain of Fourth Hokage Anbu.
As a Captain, he naturally didn't have to take care of too many things as the Vice-Captain would handle them. Only when something important happened would they go to the Captain.
How could Nagasawa let something happen to his trusted subordinate? His dream was to lie in bed all day round, with a bunch of his trusted subordinate working hard for the prosperity of Konoha.
Could you really become stronger by just lying around? Of course!
After detailed experiments and calculations, Orochimaru and Nagasawa discovered that the spiritual energy provided by Mangekyo Sharingan was way higher than three-tomoe Sharingan, even if there was only one of them. The owner of a single Mangekyo Sharingan might not be able to withstand Hashirama cells, but the Secondary Hashirama cells should be no problem.
"Well, I have no problem with that. It's just that does this implant make me the First Hokage's descendant?"
Hearing Nagasawa's words, Kakashi said that he was not worried that it would harm his body. After all, it was impossible for Nagasawa to harm him, but Kakashi felt a little strange that the cells of a famous person like the First Hokage was implanted in him.
"Theoretically, yes. Why? Do you want to change your name to Kakashi Senju?" Nagasawa said with a playful smile.
"Forget it, I think Hatake is quite good." Kakashi quickly said.
"Nagasawa, you are finally here. I have already finished the preparation."
A hoarse voice was heard. Orochimaru, who was wearing a white coat, came out from the darkness.
