Kakashi immediately started trembling with fear.
Not only was the so-called God of Shinobi, Uchiha Madara, planning to come challenge him after being revived—
Even the legendary mother of the Sage of Six Paths, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki herself, wanted to fight him.
And all of this…
Was because of a weird title he himself didn't even understand.
[Sage of Six Paths: Am I seeing this right? The description says you led Team 7 to defeat my mother, Kakashi?]
[Kaguya Ōtsutsuki: Not only can you go 50/50 with me, you even defeat me? Kakashi, you've gone too far.]
[Black Zetsu: Mother! At least there's one bit of good news—it proves that you will break free in the future.]
[Madara Uchiha: Black Zetsu, shut up. I don't want to hear your voice. You're my disgrace.]
[Sage of Six Paths @ Kaguya: Mother, it seems that even if you do break free, you'll still be defeated. So stop wasting your efforts and just stay quietly inside the moon.]
[Kaguya Ōtsutsuki @ Sage of Six Paths: You unfilial child! Just wait. When I get out, I'll deal with you first.]
[Fourth Raikage A: Who is Team 7? Another master I've never heard of?]
[Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki: I didn't realize there was a powerhouse called "Team 7." The Leaf really is full of hidden monsters.]
[Chiyo: The Leaf is terrifying. First, there's the Child of Prophecy Naruto, who will change the world. Then there's Kakashi, who can fight Six Paths-level enemies. And now, there's Team 7, who can defeat the Sage's mother, Kaguya…]
[Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi: Naruto is the Fourth Hokage's son and the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki. The Copy Ninja Kakashi I've heard of too. But who on earth is this Team 7?]
Pure Land.
A smile appeared on the face of the Sage of Six Paths.
Of course he knew who Team 7 was.
They were his two sons' reincarnations—Asura and Indra—
Plus one girl named Sakura Haruno.
From what he knew so far—
She was just a girl who cried a lot and dragged the team down.
Hidden Leaf Village, Chunin Exam Hall.
Everyone from Konoha stared at Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura in shock.
Others might not know who Team 7 was—
But the people present from Konoha did.
Team 7 wasn't some mysterious name.
It was simply the squad led by Kakashi.
Its members: Sakura, Naruto, Sasuke.
Among the three, the most stunned was Sakura herself.
Having watched so many scenes from the future, she had always thought she was useless.
She never expected that she would become so strong, fighting alongside Naruto and Sasuke to defeat the legendary mother of the Sage of Six Paths.
Group chat.
[Hashirama Senju @ Kakashi Hatake: Since you're the one leading Team 7, you should know who they are, right?]
[Tobirama Senju @ Hiruzen Sarutobi: You damn monkey, don't tell me you don't know. Hurry and explain who this Team 7 is.]
[Zabuza: You may not believe it, but I was defeated by Kakashi leading Team 7.]
[Fourth Raikage A @ Zabuza: Then spit it out. Who is Team 7?]
[Zabuza: Team 7 isn't some big name. It's just three brats.]
[Kaguya Ōtsutsuki: Three brats? What is that supposed to mean?]
[Naruto Uzumaki @ Sasuke Uchiha @ Sakura Haruno: I think Team 7 refers to us three.]
[Sasuke Uchiha: Naruto, you idiot! Why'd you say it out loud? Now Kaguya and her side will mark us as targets!]
[Sakura Haruno: Sasuke's right! Naruto, you idiot!]
[Hinata Hyuga: Naruto-kun, I'm sorry I wasn't able to fight at your side in the future.]
[Kushina Uzumaki @ Hinata Hyuga: Don't be discouraged, daughter-in-law. You just focus on taking care of Naruto. Leave the dangerous fighting to him.]
[Madara Uchiha: Sasuke, so you choose the Leaf in the end. You disappoint me.]
[Itachi Uchiha: Otōto… looks like your future turns out pretty well. But right now, you're pathetically weak.]
[Sasuke Uchiha: Itachi! I can kill you even now!]
[Itachi Uchiha: Words are meaningless. I'm waiting in the Land of Rain. Come if you dare—but I suggest you stay hidden in the Leaf a while longer. Coming to the Akatsuki now is just suicide.]
[Kaguya Ōtsutsuki @ Black Zetsu: As funny as this is, I still have a task for you.]
[Black Zetsu: Mother, say the word. I'll definitely get it done.]
[Kaguya Ōtsutsuki: Kill that Kakashi, and wipe out Team 7.]
[Black Zetsu: Don't worry, Mother. I will free you as soon as possible, and eliminate anyone who could threaten you in advance.]
[Hashirama Senju @ Black Zetsu: I don't know what you are, but try laying a hand on anyone from the Leaf.]
[Tobirama Senju @ Black Zetsu: You heard my brother. I don't care what you are—don't touch anyone from the Leaf.]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Please rest assured, First Lord, Teacher. Even if it costs me my life, I will protect Kakashi and Team 7.]
[Fourth Raikage A: Cost your life? You mean sealing that so-called "3.5 Black Zetsu's" hands?]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi @ Fourth Raikage A: Are you trying to start a war with the Leaf?]
[Fourth Raikage A: You may be "the strongest Hokage in history," but your own teacher already said you're not fit to remain Hokage. What qualifications do you have to speak for the Leaf against my Hidden Cloud?]
[Tobirama Senju @ Fourth Raikage A: Whatever the case, that damned monkey is still from the Leaf. It's not your place to bully him.]
[Hashirama Senju @ Fourth Raikage A: I don't want war. But if you keep provoking the Leaf, bear the consequences.]
[Third Raikage: Hashirama, Tobirama, do you really think the Hidden Cloud is that easy to push around?]
[Second Raikage @ Fourth Raikage A: Don't start trouble, but don't fear it either. It's just the Leaf. Do they really think we're so easy to bully?]
[Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki: Enough, everyone. We already know there will be a Fourth Great Ninja War. If we keep this up, we'll just make it start sooner.]
[Chiyo: Ōnoki is right. We should value peace and face our common enemy together.]
While everyone was arguing—
The scroll burst into golden light.
A semi-transparent screen appeared before it.
Everyone stopped quarreling and looked up at the display.
Because—
Everyone was extremely curious.
Was it true that Kakashi could go 50/50 with mere Genin at his weakest, and with the Sage of Six Paths' mother, Kaguya, at his strongest?
And—
They were all curious about something else:
What did the legendary mother of the Sage of Six Paths, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, actually look like?
And just how strong was she?
It took the Sage of Six Paths creating the moon to seal her.
Furthermore—
From everything they knew, Kaguya had been sealed in the moon's core all this time—
And yet she still wasn't dead.
A being that powerful—
How exactly did Kakashi and Team 7 defeat her?
Even the Sage of Six Paths and Kaguya themselves were curious.
Amid everyone's anticipation—
Kakashi's footage finally began to play!
[At age five, Kakashi entered the Ninja Academy and used the Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu during the cloning lesson to graduate on the spot.]
[He became a Chunin at six, and a Jonin at twelve. These records remain unbroken.]
[While his peer Obito was still struggling to master the C-rank Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu, Kakashi had already created his own A-rank jutsu—Chidori!]
...
Group chat.
[Fourth Raikage A: Judging by his record as a ninja, he really does seem impressive.]
[Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki: I've been Tsuchikage for many years, and no such genius has ever appeared in my village.]
[Obito Uchiha: What's with this footage? Is it targeting me?]
[Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze @ Obito Uchiha: Don't be upset. That's just how it was back then.]
[Kakashi Hatake: Obito, you're strong too. Come back. Let's protect the Leaf together.]
[Naruto Uzumaki: As expected of Kakashi-sensei. Sugoi!]
Sasuke, watching, was thinking to himself:
The Chidori he had just barely mastered—
Kakashi had already created it at such a young age.
He had always considered himself a genius.
But compared to Kakashi, his so-called talent was nothing.
The footage continued to play.
