Chapter 35: Fist Fight
A/N: It's at this chapter that Kakashi begins living up to the legacy of Kakashi
....
[Black Flash]
Gojo's fists crackled with black and red energy as he hit Toji in the back, the energy died down as Toji was sent flying.
He crashed into one of the pillars, destroying it.
"Is he dead?" Kakashi asked.
"Nah!" He said loudly. "I doubt that even a black flash will be enough to take him down."
'He's still high.' Kakashi thought to himself.
"Like I said." Toji said as he emerged from the rubble. "Our fight's just getting started."
Toji vanished from his initial position appearing before Gojo and trying to cut him in half, Gojo shifted his body to the side dodging the attack.
He cocked his fists as they emitted cursed energy before throwing it at Toji's face, the man caught it before throwing his own fist, his punch sent Gojo sprawling backwards.
Kakashi came from his blindspot aiming to land a rasengan but Toji twisted his body before hitting his body, unexpectedly he turned into a puff of smoke.
"The hell." He muttered to himself.
"Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu!" Kakashi muttered.
A small pond of water appeared around Kakashi, then a large dragon of up to 30 meters emerged from it heading straight to Toji.
Toji jumped into the air to avoid it but in response Kakashi directed it to follow him though due to the distance it could catch up to Toji.
"Another dragon." He said to himself as he used the soul-split katana to cut it in half.
"Tcch." A shadow clone came from Kakashi's back jumping into the air.
The clone ran through a couple of hand-signs.
"Fire style: Fireball Jutsu!" It took in a lot of air before expelling it.
The carbon dioxide released into the air lit up turning into fire, it burned with an orange hue as it moved towards Toji.
"Damn." Toji muttered.
Since he was already airborne he couldn't dodge this.
The flames hit him, sticking to his body as it ate his clothes, a normal person would have died on exposure to these flames but Toji was a superhuman, he had high fire resistance.
As soon as Kakashi's clone lost all the air in his lungs, the flames stopped and Toji emerged from the flames mostly unscathed.
The flames licked his clothing but he quickly put them out, nobody wanted to fight naked after all.
"Phase, Paramita, Pillar of Light [Cursed Technique Reversal: Red]"
Gojo sent the technique at Toji who was caught off guard for a moment courtesy to the ceaseless that had been sent ceaselessly at him.
'The inventory curse hasn't been exorcised.' he thought.
A simple attack fueled by cursed energy would have been enough to exorcise the curse, but for some reason it was still alive.
At the last second Toji turned around and used his weapon to block the attack but the force in it still sent him backwards.
Kakashi watched the man get sent backwards and hit a building, there was a bit of blood dripping from his head but apart from that he seemed fine.
"Kakashi, are you okay? Because I am!" Gojo asked keeping that crazed smile on his face.
"I'm fine." He replied not replying the narcissist.
He looked at his hands, he still couldn't believe he was able to use chakra combined with reverse cursed energy taken from the surroundings so easily.
Ever since he woke up after healing his heart he felt much better, though the sharingan constantly at his chakra reserves he felt more alive than when he had first been transmigrated!
"I'm not sure we'll be able to beat him, he might take us out again." Kakashi voiced out his worry.
"Don't worry, I have a special technique that'll kill him for sure. You just need to distract him long enough for me to get ready." Gojo said.
*Bang
A bullet flew past Kakashi's ear, he barely dodged after hearing the sound.
"I hate that glock!" Kakashi shouted.
"Riiight! He used it to trick me too." Gojo said.
Toji came out of the dust he had formed by his impact with the building, there was a bit of blood just above the right portion of his forehead but aside from that he was perfectly okay.
He had a crazed expression on his face as he clashed two blades against each other, sparks flew into the air as he looked at the most annoying of his opponents in the eyes.
He vanished from his position reappearing in front of Gojo, Kakashi sensing it punched Toji but it didn't have much of an effect.
"Right, I'm not strong enough to damage hulk." He reminded himself as Gojo was attacked.
'Then I guess..." A light-blue aura crackled as foreign energy wrapped around his fist. "...I have to use cheats!"
He punched Toji again but this time the man dodged him sensing that the punch would have done a bit of damage.
"If you wanna damage me put a bit more curse behind it!" Gojo laughed hysterically as his hands moved in quick punches.
"Are you mocking me?" Toji questioned avoiding all the blows.
"Nah, I just thought you had a bit more backbone in you. But I guess that got broken when you hit the wall!" Gojo feinted, Toji fell for it dodging to the right.
He managed to land a grazing blow on the man in front of him but he got hit back 5 blows.
"Rasengan!" A voice came from above.
Gojo hearing the voice jumped back to avoid the move he was used to.
Toji clicked his tongue, this brat was annoying.
He raised his hand up and grabbed the arm of the man falling on him, he proceeded to break the hand of his attacker. The small blue ball in his hand faded as Toji threw the body away like a ragdoll.
But Kakashi turned into a puff of smoke.
'This technique again, this is starting to get annoying.' Toji thought staring at the cloud of smoke.
"Rasengan." A monotone voice came through the puff of smoke.
Kakashi came busting through the smoke hitting Toji directly in the stomach, the man let out a saliva from his mouth as the light-green ball of wind type chakra made contact with his stomach.
Toji flew backwards due to the impact, rolling on the ground before coming to a halt.
"When are you going to be ready? I can't hold him any longer." Kakashi asked.
He was starting to get tired and his active sharingan and the fact that he had been spamming jutsus meant that he would soon be empty his chakra reserves.
"If he sees it coming he'll just dodge, I need you to create an opening." Gojo said looking at the man getting up.
'This has been 2 crazy months.' Kakashi thought as he watched Toji get up.
Kakashi began running towards the sorcerer killer, the man seeing this also began moving towards him, but he began walking slowly.
The inventory curse brought out the inverted spear of heaven from its inventory, Toji hit the two blades together before breaking into an all-out sprint.
"You're dead!" He said.
'Oh, I remember now...' Kakashi looked at his opponent, he was shocked that Toji didn't realize that he was reading his movements. 'The sharingan allows me to read my opponents moves, it seems that with the slightest muscle movement I can predict his next move.'
Kakashi swayed his body to the left as he dodged Toji's strike by a hair's breadth, the man just kept moving faster and faster seemingly wanting to turn Kakashi into mince meat.
'That might work.' Kakashi thought as an idea surfaced his mind.
Toji slashed the air several times in quick succession and this time Kakashi was unable to dodge.
"I finally got you." Toji had a triumphant smirk as he sliced his opponent in half.
*Poof
