Naruto: With Favorabiltity System

Chapter 10 Battle with Kakashi

In the midst of battle, Haneda did not notice Obito's "betrayal."

His eyes constantly shifted, always capturing Kakashi's movements.

Suddenly, during an exchange of blows, Kakashi pulled out a kunai from his waist.

Swish!

The blade flashed past Haneda's face, reflecting his delicate features.

"Damn, he's too fast!"

Haneda quickly stepped back, drawing a kunai from his waist, his gaze fixed on Kakashi.

Crackle, crackle, crackle!!!

Kakashi moved, continuously slashing with his kunai.

Every swing of his arm was precise, as if a dancer in perfect rhythm with the music.

Haneda matched him.

Though slightly weaker than Kakashi, Haneda's reflexes were enough to handle Kakashi's assault.

Clang! Clang, clang, clang!!!

The sound of kunai clashing created a beautiful rhythm, accompanying their synchronized movements like a performance full of spectacle.

Even the usually carefree Obito stared at the fight, afraid to miss a single second.

"Obito's taijutsu is still weaker than yours..."

Haneda pressed against Kakashi's arms, pushing with all his strength.

"What do you mean?" Kakashi asked, puzzled, staring at Haneda.

"Let me borrow your hands for a moment."

Haneda smiled as his right hand moved.

Serpent, Ram, Monkey, Boar, Horse...

"He's using my hands for hand signs!!!"

Realizing what was happening, Kakashi immediately retreated, putting distance between him and Haneda.

But by the time the final sign, "Tiger," was formed, Haneda had already completed it!

"Fire Style—Great Fireball Jutsu!!"

A ball of fire spewed from Haneda's mouth, expanding in mid-air from the size of a basketball to a diameter of around 2.5 meters.

"Earth Style—Earth-Style Wall!"

As Kakashi performed his own hand signs mid-air, he slammed his palm into the ground.

A thick wall engraved with a dog's head rose from the earth, blocking the fireball.

Whoosh!!!

The earthen wall was continuously destroyed as gray-black smoke filled the area. In less than three seconds, smoke engulfed the surroundings.

At that moment, Haneda moved!

Countless shuriken flew from his hands, connected by thin wires, emitting a faint white glow.

"Uchiha-style Shuriken Jutsu!"

Haneda smiled as he manipulated the shuriken, his gaze never leaving Kakashi.

"If you can't close the distance between us, then I will definitely win!"

Screech!!!

The shuriken clashed with Kakashi's kunai, sending sparks flying.

Kakashi kept retreating, absorbing the impact of the shuriken strikes.

"It's over, Kakashi. Unlike Obito, I won't give you a chance."

Haneda said calmly.

"Ridiculous." Kakashi's voice came from behind Haneda.

"What...?"

Haneda realized what was happening and swung his left-hand kunai to block Kakashi's attack.

But Kakashi gave Haneda no chance, delivering a kick that sent Haneda flying.

"It's over, Haneda."

Kakashi's face, half-covered by a mask, showed no emotion as he formed the Seal of Reconciliation.

"A shadow clone? That's not ordinary... It must be a Shadow Clone Technique, right?"

Haneda wiped the dirt from his face and smiled.

"Too bad. Bearing the name Uchiha, I cannot lose!"

As he spoke, a blood-red hue appeared in Haneda's eyes, with a single black tomoe spinning in his pupil.

"The real fight starts now."

Haneda stood up, brushing off his clothes as if nothing had happened.

"Ikuso!"

He raised his kunai again, moving even faster and with more ferocity than before!

"The Sharingan?" Kakashi said in surprise.

Even as he spoke, his movements didn't slow, still forcefully resisting Haneda's attacks.

But this time, the tides had turned!

Haneda's speed surpassed Kakashi's, and his reaction time was quicker.

Every one of Kakashi's movements seemed like slow motion to Haneda, easily predicted and countered.

"How is this possible? Is this the power of the Sharingan?!!" Kakashi's face was filled with shock.

For the first time, he fully understood the weight of the warning: "Never engage an Uchiha in a one-on-one fight."

Clang! Clang, clang!

Kunai collided, sending sparks flying.

Haneda relentlessly pressured Kakashi, not giving him a moment to breathe.

Within less than two and a half minutes, the intense battle drained Kakashi's stamina. In the end, Haneda's kunai hovered over his forehead.

"You've lost, Kakashi."

Haneda retracted his kunai and formed the Seal of Reconciliation.

Kakashi, sitting on the ground, also formed the seal.

He gazed up at Haneda's face, with sunlight streaming through the gaps in Haneda's hair.

At that moment, Kakashi suddenly understood the choice in his heart.

"Haneda, for you, comrades are more important than the mission, aren't they? Just like my father."

Kakashi said calmly.

"Of course." Haneda nodded, glancing at the miserable-looking Obito nearby, and smiled.

"I'll give you a piece of advice, Kakashi."

"In the ninja world, those who break the rules are scum, but those who abandon their comrades are worse than scum!"

With that, Haneda walked away with his hands in his pockets, leaving Kakashi sitting on the ground, staring into the sky.

"The victor, Uchiha Haneda."

...

"Damn it, Haneda! You betrayed the revolution of friendship! How can you even show your face here?!!"

As soon as Obito saw Haneda approaching, he waved his fists and shouted.

They were supposed to be the underdogs, but Haneda had ditched him and become a top student. This left Obito feeling awkward.

"It's not like I meant to deceive you, Obito."

"I told you long ago that I was strong, but you, this fool, never took it seriously."

Haneda smiled, unfazed by the emotion in Obito's words.

He understood Obito's feelings at that moment.

In a nutshell: you want your brother to do well, but not better than you.

Haneda patted Obito's shoulder lightly and smiled.

"Obito, no matter what I become, whether a slacker or a top student, we'll always be friends."

Upon hearing this, Obito took a half-step back, as if triggered.

He pointed at Haneda and shouted,

"Who's friends with you, you idiot Haneda! You jerk!"

"Haha... The Uchiha clan's traditional tsundere."

Haneda chuckled, deciding to ignore him since the rising affection levels already said it all.

*Ding! Uchiha Obito affection +3*

*Ding! Uchiha Obito affection +5*

...

*Host's affection level with Uchiha Obito has reached 230, gaining partial Sage Body and Sharingan power.*

"Sage Body and Sharingan power... not bad. But unfortunately, neither has reached the level of awakening."

Haneda thought regretfully. His partial Sharingan power hadn't reached the standard of three tomoe, and the Sage Body was similarly incomplete.

As for the Mangekyo Sharingan and the full Sage Body like Hashirama's, it might not even be possible before Obito's dark turn.

Next up, it's Kakashi.

After all, Kakashi was the "Copy Ninja" who had learned over a thousand jutsu.

The most iconic jutsu he possessed were Chidori and Raikiri.

Chidori was an A-rank jutsu, while Raikiri was S-rank.

Interestingly, Raikiri was an advanced form of Chidori.

In the original series, Sasuke later developed techniques from Chidori, like Chidori Current and Chidori Sharp Spear, showing its great potential.

Moreover, Chidori was undeniably the perfect jutsu for the Uchiha clan!

By leveraging the White Fang incident and tapping into Kakashi's bonds, this was the best time to deepen their connection and boost his affection.

Haneda had high expectations for this.
