Naruto: Naruto's Uchiha girlfriend is too arrogant

Chapter 615 Robots

"Thunderous Youth Slash—!"

On the other side of the battlefield in Konoha, a blinding bolt of lightning tore through the dim twilight. Kakashi Hatake transformed into a straight bolt of lightning, his hand, wreathed in lightning, precisely piercing the core of the puppet before him.

The doll shattered in his hands, fragments of joints and gears exploding in all directions, crashing to the ground with a clattering sound.

"Hmph, utterly pathetic."

Suddenly, behind him, another puppet silently emerged from the smoke, raised its long sword, and stabbed it fiercely into Kakashi's unsuspecting back.

"Kakashi! Watch out!"

Immediately afterward, a green figure charged in from the side, kicking the puppet squarely in the back. The puppet, along with its sword, was sent flying backward, falling apart in mid-air and scattering its remains across the ground.

"Thanks, Kai." Kakashi completely pulled his hand out of the puppet's wreckage, turned around, and gave a thumbs-up to the green figure who had saved his life. "As expected of my eternal rival! Youth truly never betrays you!"

"Yes. But don't get distracted during the battle, Kakashi."

Kai responded in a deep voice, already assuming the starting stance for hand-to-hand combat. "This time the numbers are different, so don't be careless. We'll take care of each other from behind, okay?"

"Need I say more?" Kakashi took a step back, his back firmly pressed against Kai's, the two of them forming a single defensive circle.

Kakashi admires this about Guy. He usually appears lazy and lazy in front of others, preferring to lie down rather than sit. But once in battle or when his comrades are in danger, Guy, who usually seems completely unreliable, instantly transforms into someone else, becoming incredibly dependable.

The puppets surged in from all directions, but with the two working together, the battle became completely one-sided. In no time, a thick layer of puppet remains covered the ground beneath their feet.

"Alright!" After kicking the last puppet that was close to him to pieces, Kakashi straightened up, raised his arm, and pointed to the Akatsuki-robed figure standing not far away behind the puppet army, who had not moved an inch. His voice was loud and confident.

"[Akatsuki]! Your puppets won't last much longer! Bring out as many as you have, but the outcome won't change. Just surrender obediently, and at least you'll save your life!"

Under the moonlight, a red-haired youth wearing a black robe with red cloud patterns stood quietly in place.

Scorpion stared at the shattered remains of the puppet scattered on the ground, his expression completely unchanged.

"Pretty capable," Scorpion said slowly. "But don't get carried away. Those were just tests, consumables meant for data collection. I won't care how many you break."

He slightly raised his chin. "Today, we must seize the Nine-Tails. This is the plan, and it won't change because of your meager resistance. Perfect, let you be the first test subjects of the new weapon that Orochimaru and I are developing together. Let you see for yourselves what this so-called 'Puppet Revolution' really is."

After saying that, Scorpion quickly formed a hand seal in front of his chest.

"Bang--!!!"

A huge black shadow fell from the sky and crashed onto the battlefield. The impact of the landing kicked up a ring of dust that rolled outwards from the point of impact.

Kakashi and Guy simultaneously raised their arms to shield themselves from the oncoming rubble and dust, causing the ground beneath their feet to tremble violently.

"A new opponent? Let's see how powerful Konoha's proud silver fangs are... huh?"

As the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, and the silhouette of the figure that had landed gradually became visible, Kakashi uttered a sound of utter bewilderment.

"...Sasuke?"

That's right. The figure had short black hair, wore the exact same clothes as Uchiha Sasuke, and even had Sharingan eyes. This figure almost combined all of Uchiha Sasuke's physical characteristics, but anyone who had seen Sasuke in person would not mistake this thing for the real Uchiha Sasuke.

Because it is made entirely of steel, and its movements are exceptionally fluid, with the curve of its arms resembling a robot character from a children's cartoon.

"That's right!" Sasori spread his arms wide, his voice suddenly rising several octaves. His previous cold and composed demeanor was replaced by fanatical pride. "This is our Akatsuki's latest masterpiece, one of the Twin Dragons of Heaven and Earth, Mechanical Sasuke! Everything about it has undergone repeated adjustments and modifications by Orochimaru and me! Savor this terror!"

He abruptly waved his hand, issuing the attack command to the robot, "Go, Mecha Sasuke!"

Upon receiving the command, the steel creation named "Mechanical Sasuke" suddenly emitted two crimson beams of light from its Sharingan sockets, their brightness blindingly intense.

It opened its mouth and emitted a clear, mechanical sound.

"The strongest super machine on Earth—Mecha Sasuke! Launch!"

"Hmph." Kakashi looked at the utterly absurd steel monster in front of him and let out a cold laugh. Then he raised his hand, his thumb pressing against the edge of his headband, and pushed the cloth covering his left eye upwards, revealing the three-tomoe Sharingan below.

"How dare you desecrate the reputation of my most beloved disciple, Hatake Kakashi! Fine, let me show you the true power of the Copy Ninja Kakashi, who embodies youth, passion, and the Sharingan."

then.

The mechanical Sasuke suddenly opened its body. The two metal panels on its chest simultaneously sprang open to the sides using hydraulic pressure, revealing a dense array of... missiles inside.

At the same time, its mouth suddenly opened to an angle that no human could possibly reach, and a blinding light began to rapidly condense deep in its throat, emitting a buzzing charging sound. The surrounding air was distorted and heated by the energy fluctuations.

"...Huh?"

"boom--!!!"

A massive laser beam erupted from the mouth of the mechanical Sasuke, while missiles launched from his chest simultaneously, trailing white smoke that covered every inch of ground where Kakashi and Guy were located from all directions.

The explosion engulfed everything in an instant, and the shockwave hurled the remaining puppet remains, which were not yet completely destroyed, into the air. The earth trembled violently, and a small mushroom cloud slowly rose amidst the smoke.
