"I'm glad I don't have to go through Squad Leader Nagasawa's training today."
Kakashi sighed as he walked home after finishing training team's work.
In addition to Guy, Kakashi, Midori, and Ensui could use Color of Arms Haki at will.
Therefore, Nagasawa said that he would give them a break for two months. At the same time, Nagasawa also wanted to think about the next phase of training for them.
Kakashi was thankful for this. At least he didn't need to endure Nagasawa's beating after finishing his job in training team every day.
He finally understood why the students of the Academy were looking forward to the holiday after he was trained by Nagasawa.
It sure took a while as it had been ten years since his graduation.
"Say, wouldn't this be a good time to improve my cooking skill?" Kakashi murmured to himself.
It had been six months since Hanabira was pregnant, and the bulging on her stomach was already very obvious.
Kakashi couldn't bear to watch Hanabira cook with her big belly.
He could cook to a certain extent. After all, his mother died early, and his father committed suicide. Of course he could cook!
Moreover, according to Obito and Rin's testimony, his cooking was quite delicious.
But it was only limited to what he liked, such as grilled saury with salt and so on.
Kakashi felt that it might not be appropriate to give such a food to a pregnant woman.
So he thought that it was time for him to properly learn how to cook, and his "observation" schedule on Minato had to be adjusted as well.
The "observation" here meant observing how Minato raised his child.
Thinking about these things, Kakashi instantly felt that his life was fulfilled.
"Will it be a boy or a girl? It should be a boy, and he can inherit Hatake Clan's sword skills."
Kakashi imagined what he would look like when he became a father. Would he be able to be like his father, Sakumo Hatake? He was very proud of his father for so long.
He couldn't further develop Hatake Clan's swordsmanship as he rarely used it. He was now accustomed to fighting with all kinds of Ninjutsu.
He only hoped that his son would be talented enough to inherit Hatake Clan's swordsmanship.
"Yo, my best friend, what are you thinking about? Walking while daydreaming is not good, you know."
Suddenly, a familiar figure wearing a green tight suit appeared in front of Kakashi.
The sudden appearance of Guy ruined the image of a cute child in Kakashi's mind.
Although he really regarded Guy as a close friend, if his son copied Guy's "fashion", Kakashi would use Color of Arms Haki to show his son what father's tough love was.
Kakashi reminded: "Guy, this is a big street. If you try to do your pose, you will disturb others."
Guy quickly adjusted his posture. He smiled at Kakashi and said:
"Kakashi, I heard about how you defeated Two-Tails Jinchuriki in the battlefield. That's what youth is supposed to be! Let's have a youthful and hot-blooded battle! Let me see how strong you have become after defeating a Jinchuriki!
Kakashi covered his face. It seemed that his trip home this time would not end peacefully.
"Well, that Jinchuriki is very young. He looks only twelve or thirteen years old, so he can't exert the Tailed Beast's true strength." Kakashi explained.
Guy was way stronger than before as he had mastered Color of Arms Haki and Six Powers. Guy had improved way more than the rest of Nagasawa's apprentices.
Even Kakashi didn't think that he could take down Guy that easily if he used Eight Gates.
However, he didn't think it was impossible. After all, he had gotten way stronger as well recently.
He had awakened Mangekyō Sharingan, implanted Secondary Hashirama cells, strengthening his body, and he also learned Wood Release.
Of course, the most important thing was that his physical strength and spiritual energy had been balanced, so he wouldn't feel exhausted after a moment.
However, it was a rare chance for him to have some leisure time. Kakashi wasn't that interested in fighting like Guy either, so he would rather not fight if it were possible.
"Hahaha, your opponent is a Jinchuriki nonetheless. Kakashi, you don't have to be modest in front of your best friend." Might Guy gave Kakashi a thumbs-up.
"Since you want to fight so much, come with me then."
Kakashi then ran toward the remote forest.
"Haha, that's how youth is supposed to be!" The Chakra on Might Guy's feet burst out, and he followed Kakashi toward the remote forest.
The two of them accelerated and soon arrived at the remote forest in the east of Konoha. No one came to this place, so their spar would not be interfered.
In the forest, the two of them looked at each other for a second and did not say a word. In the next second, the two suddenly made a move.
"Raikiri!"
Kakashi rushed toward Might Guy while quickly forming a seal. He condensed a large amount of Chakra in his right hand, which eventually turned into a concentrated lightning.
"Shigan!"
Might Guy pointed out his index finger and focused his power into it before covering his entire hand with Color of Arms Haki.
Might Guy then also rushed toward Kakashi. He was so fast that his accelerating impact blew the leaves on the ground.
Rumble!!
Kakashi's palm, which was covered with blue lightning, collided with Might Guy's jet black-finger.
A violent explosion sounded, and the strong impact force made the trees next to them break and fall.
"So powerful! Hadn't it been for the Color of Arms Haki, I'm afraid my fingers would have been cut off." Guy seemed even more excited when he sensed how intense Kakashi's Raikiri was.
He was not afraid of Kakashi being strong. The stronger Kakashi was, the more excited he was. Because he believed that as long as he kept working hard, one day he could reach the same level as Kakashi, or even surpass him.
In the beginning, Kakashi could defeat him with one move, but it wouldn't be a surprise if Guy won nowadays. Although this was not a serious battle, Guy wanted to prove himself.
"Guy, you don't have to be modest. My palm is already in pain." Kakashi said with a smile.
To be able to inflict pain to Kakashi through his lightning, Guy's Shigan certainly was no ordinary Shigan. It could even be a new finishing move if he changed the name!
