Naruto 524: Kakashi’s Life at Risk! - prediction

(With his arm stuck through Haku, Kakashi faces certain doom. As Zabuza aims to complete his attack, a close up inspection reveals Kakashi’s Mangekyou. Before Zabuza’s blade slashes through both Haku and Kakashi, sword and all, Zabuza is whisked away into another dimension. The scene switches over to Kabuto, as he displays signs of disbelief as his eyes are focused on the playing board below him.)

Kabuto: “That damn Kakashi! (Kabuto then sarcastically smiles) It appears that war hound still has some tricks up his sleeves…”

(The scene switches over to Kakashi as he withdraws Mangekyou.)

Kakashi (in thought): “I was saving that for when there was no other option. Now, I must be extremely cautious knowing that I was forced to play that card so early.”

(The scene switches over to Ensui and Santa)

Santa: “Strange, I can’t feel Zabuza’s presence anymore.”

Ensui: “Dammit! Does that mean we’ve been compromised?”

Santa: “I’m not quite sure, Zabuza’s chakra source is like, not existent at all. But something else is in his place! Keep the strategy going, at least we’ll get something!”

(The scene switches back over to Kakashi, who still has his hand through Haku. As the fog begins to fade, Kakashi can see Maki in back, as the scenario switches over to his perspective.)

Maki (in thought): “That’s not-.” (Kakashi raises the signal to continue, as Kage Mane fully restricts Haku and Kakashi is set free. Not a second to waste, Maki comes behind and prepares his technique to restrain Haku, completely, however, from behind Maki comes several flying, sharp spikes, which pierces Maki in the back of the neck. Maki falls down, dead. In the back, Fugaki turns away and heads toward another location.)

Kakashi: “SHIT!” (The scene switches over to Kabuto’s location.)

Kabuto: “Kakashi’s quite the dangerous one. It would be wise to not lose anymore of my valuables like that… Taking a hit like that is painful. Kakashi must be taken out quickly but cautiously.”

(The scene switches over to Kakashi’s location. The fog fades completely as everyone can now see the battlefield.)

Kakashi (in thought): “Something’s going on here, something troublesome. To my knowledge, the only mist shinobi honed enough to detect enemies by sound alone is Zabuza. Even though Haku is special in his own right, he simply doesn’t have the senses, same with the guy who took out Maki. Have to regroup and reform our battle plan if we’re to survive this and prove my hypothesis about what’s going on here.”

(Kakashi pulls out a string of metal wire and strings up Haku and throws him on his back, Ensui then cancels Kage Mane. Kakashi then turns around and rushes back only for the ground beneath him to break apart, causing Kakashi to toss Haku to the ground during a backward flip motion to avoid being torn apart by the geyser erupting from the earth. The water settles and reveals itself to be Mangetsu.)

Kakashi: “The mist’s kid-prodigy standing before me… Heh, I just can’t catch a break.” (Mangetsu splits up into many clones. They surround Kakashi as he gathers himself. A clone rushes from the back and attacks Kakashi, Kakashi avoids the kick by turning around and ducking and cart wheeling out of the way. Two more approaches, one from behind and other from in front of Kakashi. Kakashi ducks a hook from in front, turns his head quickly and avoids being grabbed by twisting his body to the right and rolling out of the way. Kakashi then lands on his feet and stands up.

From Kakashi’s view, he sees hundreds of steps ahead. Many, many multi-layered predicted projections of his enemies’ movements. Once the view breaks from Kakashi’s, he is seen engrossed in the midst of Mangetsu’s onslaught. Kakashi is seen quickly bobbing and weaving his head to avoid crosses and jabs, ducking to avoid hooks, side stepping to avoid enemies charging at him (which allows him to dodge the splashing effects of Mangetsu’s water clones), and back flipping to distance himself from crowds. Kakashi then pauses to take a breath as the enemies let up and back away.)

Kakashi: “I’ll die if this keeps up. I can’t keep overusing the sharingan like this.” (Mangetsu withdraws his bodies to him and becomes one again. Before Kakashi can react, Kakashi is instantly socked right in his jaw by the enlarged fist of Mangetsu, which sends Kakashi crashing into the ground.)

Kakashi: “GHARAAH!” (Mangetsu walks over to the disgruntled Kakashi, lifts him up by the neck with ease and begin to choke the life out of him using his enlarged arm’s strength.

Mangetsu: “HAAA, HA, HA!”

Kakashi (in thought): “Ahh, that’s right. He split his body up into many sections. It divided his power up… But when he joined them together again, his true speed and strength is made present. Chri-, it was all a ploy to make me tire myself out to the point that I couldn’t match his original stats. Only if I hadn’t used that jutsu.”

(Kakashi’s eyes rolls back into his head, and Kakashi hands drop from Mangetsu’s arm. It looks dire for Kakashi, however, Kakashi’s hands spring to life, and in a one quick event, he makes handseals and forms Raikiri, sending a strong electrical current through Mangetsu, disrupting his body, as he’s water and the electricity circulates through his body which dispels his grip on Kakashi’s neck. Kakashi hits the ground. Mangetsu is in a state of distortion, trying to re-gather himself. The scene switches over to Kabuto’s location.)

Kabuto: “DIE KAKASHI!” (The scene switches over to Kakashi’ location, Ringo prepares to bare his twin lightning blades into the collapsed Kakashi, however, Omoi slips into the fray and uses lightning channeled blade to parry Ringo’s. Then, out of no where-.)

Gai: “KONOHA SENPUU!” (Gai uses a spinning roundhouse kick to send Ringo flying into mid-air as Kakashi stumbles to his feet.)

Kakashi: “Guys?”

Omoi: “Sorry we’re late, we had our own battles to take care of. But you’re still amazing, staying in there all by yourself! I can look up to you even if you are from Konoha.”

Gai: “I won’t let you die! If you die, who’s robust display of youth will match mine?”

Kakashi: “What about that Haku kid, did someone manage to bring him in?”

Omoi: “All taken cared of!”

Gai: “Commander Kakashi, I await your next order!”

Kakashi: “Fine… I can’t fight anymore, but you two, get me over to Ensui and Santa’s location. We need to prepare a new plan… Apparently, somehow, our enemies on this battlefield are being directly controlled!”
