"This should do it," Kakoto said as he used transformation jutsu to disguise himself as Kakashi.
He even recreated his chakra pathways so it would be hard to differentiate from the real Kakashi.
Of course, there was still a small difference between him and Kakashi which is the scent of their bodies.
Because Kakoto was unable to change his body smell.
This means ninja dogs that specialise in tracking and finding spies can easily identify him.
He knew that Kakashi's face stuck like a sore thumb with his white hair so he decided to also create a hood that covered his hair using the transformation jutsu.
However, he still decided that trying to disguise himself as Kakashi was a good idea.
He was able to activate his sharingan which can be used to fool a few ninjas that might try to inspect him.
He ran towards the village knowing that the girl that was with Kakashi would come to this battle location sooner or later.
He has to get into the village using Kakashi's face before the guards realise what has happened.
On his way, he spotted Sakura being carried on the back by a man with red skin who was moving very fast.
"What an impressive speed. That person might even be stronger than the copy ninja," Kakoto noted.
Luckily for Kakoto Might Guy is not that proficient at sensing people through Chakra.
Kakoto was also controlling his Chakra so that it didn't leak out of his body so that it was hard for others to notice him.
Which allows him to avoid fighting Guy.
If the two fought head to head, Kakoto's plan of sneaking into Konoha would be immediately ruined.
Unlike Kakashi who becomes somewhat rusty after becoming a teacher at Konoha Academy, Guy is someone who never stops training.
Guy also possesses a technique that allows him to increase his powers by leaps and bounds in exchange for his life.
Guy would only use the attack to protect others but if he found out Kakoto was the one who beat up Kakashi there is a possibility that Guy would have used it.
No one knows how the battle between Kakoto and Guy would turn out if they both fought using their full strength.
However, it was not a battle where one side could come out unscratched.
The possibility of both of them dying together was also a possible option.
If Kakoto had met Guy a few years later he would have been able to claim that he had beaten him.
But currently, this is not the case.
"It must have been my imagination," Sakura said.
"What are you talking about Sakura?" Guy asked.
"It's nothing important. I thought I saw something." She replied.
Since Sakura says it's nothing important Guy didn't pay any attention to it.
After all his best friend is in a life-and-death situation.
-----------------------
Kakoto arrived at the Konoha gate.
He tried to walk past the gate however he was stopped by Shinobi who was acting as the guard.
"Hey, you. You can't just walk into the village without stating your identity." The guard that was at the gate said.
He has a huge scar that runs across the bridge of his nose and a ponytail.
He was one of the Chunins from the Konoha.
Kakoto takes off his hood to reveal to Kakashi's face that he transformed into using transformation jutsu.
"Oh, it's just you Kakashi." He said.
"Where is Sakura? I thought she was with you?" He asked.
"Ahh. She is still outside the village. It's just I am going back home to get that book fast." Kakoto who was disguised as Kakashi said.
His voice was not fully identical to Kakashi but the guard who was questioning him was not that familiar with Kakashi so he was unable to tell the difference.
The excuse he gave to the chunin who seemed to know Kakashi was also kind of flimsy.
He only gave that excuse because the only thing that he knew about Kakashi's likes and hobbies was a book that he found on his body.
But luckily for him, the excuse worked.
"I see. You should try to tone down reading lord's Jiraiya books." He said as he wiped a drop of blood near his nose.
"Then I will be seeing you," Kakoto said as he walked into the village successfully and waved goodbye to the chunin.
If only I had some kind of technique to read the minds of other people I would not be having situations like this. Kakoto thought in his mind.
"Like that kind of technique even exists." He said as he disappeared into the village.
--------------------------
"This place should do it. There are not many people around here," Kakoto said as he dispelled his transformation jutsu and arrived at a place where there were little to no people.
He sat on a swing set that was set up on a very big tree and looked around his surroundings.
"Konoha Academy." He said as he looked at the big building that was in front of him.
He has no memories of that place but he remembered wanting to attend the academy so that he could become a powerful ninja when he was a child.
"I guess all of those are in the past anyway." He said as he got up.
He didn't want to stay in one location as numerous Anbu ninjas were patrolling the whole village all the time.
He was able to go around the village unnoticed by trying to conceal his chakra and use transformation jutsu without drawing any attention to himself.
This time he decided to transform into a normal civilian as he would draw too much attention as Kakashi.
He was only able to do this because of the training he received but even then he couldn't afford to stay in one place for a long time.
As he predicted highly trained Konoha ninjas still have excellent sensory abilities that could allow them to spot them if he was uncareful.
I am not here for sightseeing. should take a peek at that person and immediately get out of this place. He thought in his mind.
He comes to the village with two motives in his mind.
To see the man with the x-scar on his chin sharpened his hatred and to raid the place where records of the Konoha's strongest jutsus are stored.
Although he received training from the snakes he still thinks he was lacking in jutsu aresenals.
And he thought in his mind that Konoha must have some sort of library or a storehouse that makes scrolls about the records of all the jutsus that the ninjas in hidden leave village were able to use.
So if he sneaked into that place he could theoretically gain access to all the jutsu of the most powerful ninjas that lived in Konoha.
Konoha was the strongest of the five ninja villages.
He walked towards the place where Hokage mansion was located.
However, on his way, he saw an unpleasant sight.
It was the man with the x scar moving around the village.
From what he saw that man seems to be a highly respected and heavily guarded individual.
Many villagers who were near him greeted him and paid their respects.
He was also being guarded by elite ninjas who were hiding in trees and obstacles that were near him.
Most of the ninjas that were guarding him were not that much inferior to the Kakashi that he fought.
He noticed that one of them in particular had numerous living creatures living inside him.
Protecting him in his shadows.
That bastard is still alive. Thank god. Kakoto was relieved when he saw that Danzo was alive.
Kakoto wanted to kill him himself so he is happy that at least Danzo was alive.
However despite wanting to rip him piece to piece he decided to hold back his anger.
He activated his Sharingan to gauge the power of the people that are guarding him.
"I should be able to take them out. It's just that...." He said as he looked towards the Hokage's mansion.
There was a powerful individual residing in the building that he knew he would not be able to handle without sage mode.
Even if he used sage mode and Mangekyou Sharingan he was not entirely sure he could beat that person in the Hokage's office.
As he has no knowledge about how strong the person in the Hokage's office really is.
He decided to wait.
An opportunity in the future. I should hold back myself. Instead of charging him head-first like a maniac. He thought in his mind.
After all, he just mastered sage mode not very long ago and he was not that experienced with using his mangekyou ability.
He looked at Danzo as he walked away surrounded by people that are praising him and guarding him.
He sat down under the shade of a nearby tree.
He tries to calm himself down and meditate for a few minutes without moving.
He wanted to break into the Hokage's office so he knew he had to be in his strongest state.
He reopened his eyes which were now golden because of the activation of the sage mode.
-----------------------
"Kakashi. Are you okay?" Guy yelled out as he ran towards Kakashi who was lying on the ground unconsciously.
"Kakashi sensei." Sakura was also very worried about her teacher.
"His hand? What happened to it?" Guy was very shocked.
"Sakura gave him first aid immediately," Guy said to Sakura who nodded at his words.
She sat down near Kakashi and put two of her hands together on his chest area.
A green aura started to emit from her hands as some of the bruises and scars that were on Kakashi's body started to disappear.
However, the arm didn't seem like it was going to heal up.
After all wounds like that are almost impossible for Sakura's teacher who was deemed the greatest medical ninja in the world to heal, let alone a ninja who started studying medical ninjutsu a few weeks ago.
Guy wanted to go back to Konoha to report about the Ninja who beat Kakashi but he didn't want to leave Sakura who was trying to heal Kakashi alone so he endured.
-----------------------------
Back in the village.
"Is it just my imagination?" Danzo said.
He felt that someone was watching him but he couldn't find out who it was.
It was very disturbing for him as he knew that, unlike his late friend, there were many people who were praying for his downfall.
"Abumare. I felt like there was someone who was watching me. Try to find out who it was. If you think that person is not an important figure in Konoha eliminate him." Danzo said to one of his guards.
"I understand lord Danzo." The man with the blue marking on his right cheek who was wearing sunglasses replied.
---------------------------------
This should be the place. Kakoto thought in his mind as he looked at the Hokage Mansion.
He was outside of the Hokage's mansion backyard where there were no other people or ninjas that could notice him.
He entered the Hokage's mansion through one of the windows in the backyard that were open.
Is this a trap? Entering this place is so easy to the point where a child who has not passed the Konoha Elementary could do it. Kakoto thought in his mind.
"Let's see." He said as he activated his Sharingan.
He loved the presence of Two powerful shinobi in particular.
One was just slightly weaker than Kakashi while the other was the strongest ninja that he ever encountered.
If not for the snakes from Ryuchi cave he would have thought that person was the strongest person that he had ever seen.
That must be the Hokage. The place where the scrolls are located would be the place with the most security other than the Hokage's office. He thought in his mind but he quickly discarded that thought as he realised there were even less than ten people located in the mansion.
This place is even less secure than I thought. Even the man with the scar has more guards than this place.
There are little to no guards in this whole place other than the Hokage's office.
Kakoto was surprised by the revelation.
Because of this, he was able to walk around the mansion without getting detected by anyone other than one person.
---------------------------
In the Hokage's office.
A blonde woman who possesses huge assets was making an irritated face while sitting on the desk that was located in the middle of her office.
She was accompanied by a black hair lady who was carrying a pig standing near her.
Although the woman with the blond hair looked very young in reality she was an old woman who was maintaining her youthful appearance by using transformation jutsu all the time.
She is currently the strongest person in Konoha. And have the title to match her strength.
She was the Slug princess of Konoha. Lady Tsunade.
The fifth Hokage.
