After Sasuke and Kakashi faced off with a Chidori, they felt that nearly half of the chakra in their bodies had been consumed.
Considering that he still needed to find the bell next, Sasuke didn't plan to fight Kakashi until exhaustion.
And through the previous fight, he had already seen that the gap between himself and Kakashi was not big, and he might even have a chance of winning if he fought to the death.
Because he saw that Kakashi's Sharingan seemed unable to close!
If the fight continues, it's not certain who will outlast whom!
He rubbed his numb right arm. The power of the Chidori was still too great, and the force of the collision between the two Chidori was beyond what his current body could resist.
At present, the biggest gap between him and Kakashi is probably physical fitness!
"The golden one just now shouldn't be a bell; otherwise, it might have been gone after being pierced by Kakashi's Chidori."
"Traps! And there are many of them!"
On the way to escape, Sasuke saw many similar golden lights. But there were traps all around.
Considering that Kakashi was chasing him, Sasuke planned to check again later.
Now he had to recover his right hand first; otherwise, he might not even be able to hold his sword steady when they fight again later.
Kakashi, who was chasing behind him at this time, was not completely fine either.
His right sleeve was completely black, obviously burnt by electricity. However, his arm was not injured, and it would not affect his ability to form ninjutsu.
But as Sasuke guessed, his chakra consumption was a bit large. Although it was less than one-third, if he continued to chase like this, he would hardly have much fighting power even if he could catch up with Sasuke.
If Kazuki and the others appeared at this time, he would probably be defeated by his disciples.
Inexplicably, this freshman assessment turned out to be a challenge for me!
"Oh, it's even more difficult than an A-level mission. It's really troublesome."
Kakashi sighed, glanced at Sasuke, who was still in his sight, hesitated, and chose not to pursue him.
They were looking for the bell anyway, so he could restore his chakra and make a few traps to wait.
With this in mind, Kakashi opened his ninja bag. There were two bells and some golden iron pieces in the bag.
He took out a golden bell from it, found a nearby place to bury it, exposed a golden corner, and then placed a few detonating symbols nearby.
After thinking about it for a while, it wasn't enough, so he smeared a little narcotic poison on the golden iron piece.
"People's hearts are evil. Even if you don't work under my subordinates in the future, I hope you will know more about the dangers of the ninja world, grow up as soon as possible, and contribute to Konoha."
Through Sasuke's character, he had given up hope that the three of them could pass his test.
In the fight just now, Sasuke had every chance to escape to Kazuki's direction to seek help.
But he didn't, even if he thought he was not an opponent, he still had to solve it himself.
This kind of pride is understandable in a genius, but doing so during a mission is irresponsible to oneself, the mission, and one's companions.
Selfish and independent!
He used to be like this too, until Obito died and he suddenly woke up.
Exchanging one's own growth at the expense of the lives of companions… This is not a good thing.
If possible, Kakashi hopes that all ninjas can know the importance of companions at the minimum cost, and not wait until they are lost to learn to cherish them!
…
Sasuke, on the other side, sneered when he saw Kakashi not chasing after him.
After running for some distance, he found a remote cave, drove away the bears living in it, and settled in it himself.
Kakashi wants to restore chakra, and so does he!
And because his right hand is injured, it may take longer to recover.
A quarter of an hour later, Sasuke's chakra recovered by about half, and his right arm was no longer so paralyzed.
"Although it only takes another half an hour to restore all my chakra, there is not enough time."
Sasuke muttered to himself and walked out of the bear cave.
His brows wrinkled unconsciously.
After staying in a dark place for a while, he felt a little uncomfortable facing the dazzling light.
Although it doesn't make it impossible to open his eyes, it made him see things not so clearly.
There seemed to be some ethereal little earthworms moving in the air.
"I don't know if Kazuki and the others have found the bell."
Thinking that there were only two bells, Sasuke subconsciously clenched his fists.
No more time to waste!
Sasuke jumped directly into the air, but his body came into contact with some invisible threads.
After taking a closer look, he found that someone had posted a detonating talisman at the door of the cave at some point!
"Damn it!"
Sasuke had no time to dodge in mid-air, so he could only block it with his hands in front of himself to reduce the damage.
With a bang explosion, Sasuke was blown away several meters and fell to the ground!
Before he could get up to react, countless shurikens flew from all directions!
Sasuke hurriedly rolled a few times before escaping in panic.
But at this moment, Kakashi appeared where he was hiding in embarrassment, holding the Chidori in his hand against his face, as if he would pierce his brain in the next second!
Sasuke didn't dare to move, his forehead dripping with cold sweat.
"It's finally out. It was worth waiting for you for so long."
"How did you find me?" Sasuke looked unwilling.
He was caught by Kakashi, which meant he was eliminated!
Thinking of this, he clenched his fists subconsciously.
Fail! Apart from facing Kazuki, he could not accept any failure!
Kakashi pointed to the fainted bear not far away, squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "That guy has been wandering around here, wanting to enter his cave but not daring to enter. As soon as I saw it, I knew someone was hiding in it. So I just laid a trap waiting for you to take the bait."
"I should have killed this beast if I had known!" Sasuke said coldly.
Kakashi teased: "If you kill him, there will be a smell of blood. Although most people can't smell it, ninjas have their own methods, so whether you kill him or not, you can't escape!"
Sasuke was silent.
So what's the best approach? Continue to escape? Or move to a safer place?
Wrong. Even if you change places, you will still be found.
If Kakashi had the means to judge the smell of blood, then he must also have the means to detect his scent.
Cover up the smell, don't trust the animals, and better yet, place a realm trap at the door.
This time Sasuke was caught by Kakashi, but he vaguely learned a lot of knowledge.
Kakashi removed Chidori and said to Sasuke, "You have been eliminated, and you won't get a share of the lunch later."
Sasuke remained silent.
He was eliminated, and he didn't care so much about a mere lunch.
Besides, he had eaten breakfast and was not hungry at all now.
