At Sasuke's house, Sasuke was getting to go out. Seeing this, Fugaku asked: "Sasuke, where are you going?"

  Sasuke turned around and said: "Tou-san, I am going to perform mission with Kakashi-sensei and Sakura."

  "Oh? Is Kakashi going on a mission? It's really rare." Fu Yue was a little surprised.

  Logically speaking, for someone at Kakashi level, there is almost no need to perform mission.

  Unless it is their own request, also perhaps some special mission.

  But if it's a special mission, he shouldn't bring Sasuke.

  "Yeah, Kakashi-sensei didn't elaborate and just told us go to the seventh training field, and then we would go out of the village," Sasuke said.

  "In that case, you can go." Fugaku said.

  "Yes, tou-san. Please tell kaa-san about this."

  "Don't worry."

  Hearing this Sasuke finished packing his ninja bag and go out of the house.

  Looking at Sasuke's back, Fugaku smiled.

  Although Sasuke is not as good as Itachi, Fugaku is very pleased to see Sasuke's growth right now.

  "I wonder how far Sasuke can grow under Kakashi's training. Moreover, looking at Kakashi's previous actions, I am afraid that there will be a big war in the future. The Uchiha Clan should also be prepared."

  Fugaku muttered softly. And then, it seemed that he has made a decision and left the house.

  The three member of Team Kakashi assembled at the seventh training field at this time.

  "This time, our mission is to go to the Land of Flowers to support Shikaku-senpai's Team 9. Although the specific situation is not clear, our opponent this time is probably Konoha's missing-nin, one of the former Sannin, Orochimaru." Kakashi said.

  Sakura and Sasuke were shocked when they heard this as they didn't expect their opponent this time would be that guy.

  The encounter in the Forest of Death back then made the two of them have a deep impression of this name, and it can even be said that they are a little fearful of Orochimaru.

  Sasuke touched his neck, and there is a mark there.

  It was the Cursed Seal that Orochimaru planted on Sasuke.

  Kakashi hasn't mastered the Senjutsu of Ryūchi Cave when Sasuke got this Cursed Seal, so he couldn't do anything about this Cursed Seal.

  Seeing Sasuke's action, Kakashi asked: "Sasuke, has the Cursed Seal on your neck caused any trouble for these two years?"

  Sasuke shook his head and said, "No, Kakashi's seal is very strong. So there is no problem with the Cursed Seal."

  When Kakashi sealed Sasuke's Cursed Seal, Kakashi was afraid that the effect of Evil Sealing Method was not enough, so he specially added the Senjutsu Chakra. Therefore, it is normal for the curse seal to not react at all.

  Kakashi thought for a while, and then said: "Sasuke, Orochimaru's unique Chakra is mixed in this Cursed Seal, so it is not easy to expel. However, this Cursed Seal also contains terrifying power, which is like a double-edged sword. Before, your strength was too weak, so I was afraid that you could not control it. But seeing your growth, I believe you can do it now. Therefore, I plan to weaken the seal a bit so that you can release Cursed Seal's power."

  Hearing this, Sasuke didn't show excited expression, and asked: "Kakashi-sensei, is this Cursed Seal's power the same as Jūgo?"

  Kakashi nodded and said: "Yes, Orochimaru's Cursed Seal is originally based on Ryūchi Cave's Senjutsu, but it was perfected after getting Jūgo's blood. Therefore, this Cursed Seal has the power of the Sage like Jūgo."

  Hearing this, Sasuke could not help but remember about the times when Jūgo fight before. In that form, he is really strong, and normal Jōnin is not his opponent at all.

  "I understand, then please do it Kakashi-sensei," Sasuke said.

  Sakura asked with some concern: "Kakashi-sensei, is this really okay? I heard that this Cursed Seal will erode human's body."

  Kakashi smiled and said: "If Sasuke is still weak, such problem does exist, but with Sasuke's current strength, it is more than enough to resist the erosion of the Cursed Seal, and fighting against this erosion will make Sasuke grow even stronger."

  "It turns out to be like that." Sakura nodded.

  "Don't worry, I will add another protection outside the seal. If Sasuke can't control the Cursed Seal, this protection can restrain it," Kakashi said.

  "That would be great!" Sakura joyfully said.

  "Okay then, let's start."

  Sasuke sat down cross-legged. Kakashi then stood behing him and formed hand seals, and then, he gently pressed his palm at the Cursed Seal on Sasuke's neck.

  "Kai!"

  Kakashi shouted in a low voice. At this moment, the round rune instantly began to fade, but it did not completely disappear.

  The originally circle becomes three arcs.

  Upon seeing this, Kakashi retracted his palm and said, "Okay, Sasuke, do you feel any difference?"

  Hearing this, Sasuke stood up and showed an excited expression.

  "This feeling…It's as if there is a powerful force suddenly added to my body!"

  Sasuke said, and the marks began to crawl out of the Cursed Seal, and then Sasuke's body was covered with the marks.

  Sakura was surprised and said: "Kakashi-sensei, this…"

  "This is the normal case when using Cursed Seal, and Jūgo also has such signs," Kakashi explained.

  Kozakura was stunned when she heard this. But, when she thought about it carefully, she remembered that it seemed that it was indeed the case when Jūgo used this trick on the Chunin exam.

  Sasuke didn't mind the marks on his body, but clenched his fist with excitement.

  'This power is really formidable!'

  The power that Cursed Seal can provide to the user is not fixed, but multiplies according to user's own abilities.

  It's like Sage Mode.

  In fact, plainly speaking, Cursed Seal is a simple version of the Sage Mode.

  Sasuke hit the ground with a punch, and instantly, a large crack was formed on the ground.

  Sakura was surprised when she saw this, and said: "It's so strong! It is almost as strong as my Chakra Enhanced Strength's punch."

  "It feels… great." Sasuke said joyfully.

  Kakashi smiled and said: "Sasuke, with your current strength, you can only use this Cursed Seal for ten minutes. If you enter Level 2 form, you can only use it for three minutes. If you exceed the time, it will cause damage to your body so you must remember it well."

  Hearing this, Sasuke exited the Cursed Seal's mode and said, "Yes, Kakashi-sensei."

  "Well, let's leave the Cursed Seal's thing here for the time being. We shouldn't make Shikaku-senpai and the others wait too long."

  "Yes! Kakashi-sensei!" Sasuke and Sakura said in unison.

  Team Kakashi officially set off.

  The Land of Flowers is a small country. Even small Shinobi village does not exist in this country.

  Such a country can only be reduced to a battlefield during wartime.

  And this time, the mission location is precisely this country.

  It has been half a month since Shikaku came to this country with the Team 9, but in this half a month, he hasn't completed the mission yet. It is because there is some change in the mission.

  Strong enemies appeared in this country one after another.
