"Sakura!" Seeing this, Kakashi in the distance subconsciously yelled.
"Worry about yourself before you worry about others!" After saying that, Hitani rushed towards Kakashi with a whoosh, and his Zanpakuto slashed directly at Kakashi's throat.
Puff!
The knife slashed directly into Kakashi's throat and cut off Kakashi's entire head.
Bang!
The decapitated Kakashi suddenly exploded and turned into a wooden stake.
"Substitution technique?" Hitani raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"I'm here!" Kakashi, who had used a substitution technique, appeared behind Hitani and quickly formed seals with his hands: "Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"
Boom!
A huge fireball with a diameter of about three meters spewed out of Kakashi's mouth and hit Hitani's face at close range.
Hitani immediately jumped back to avoid the fireball. The fireball hit the ground and burned a big pit in the sand. As soon as Hitani landed after jumping back, the yellow sand under his feet suddenly turned into a swamp. Half of Hitani's body sank into it, and he was stuck and unable to move.
"This is the Earth Style: Swamp of the Underworld Technique, which can restrict your movements. Now you have become a sitting duck." Lightning appeared on Kakashi's palm, and he rushed straight towards Hitani: "Chidori!"
"I see. First he used the substitution technique to attack me from behind, then used the Fire Style technique to force me to move. After predicting my landing point, he used the Swamp of the Underworld to restrict my movements, and finally used the Chidori to kill me. It's a classic ninja fighting style, but…" Hitani looked at Kakashi, who was rushing over, and calmly raised his Zanpakutō: "Reduce all creation to ash, Ryūjin Jakka, Shikai!"
Boom!!!
The scorching and dazzling flames surged out like a firestorm, covering an area of thousands of meters in radius.
Kakashi, who was sprinting, stopped immediately, staring at the flames in horror, his voice trembling: "What…what is this…"
Hitani walked out of the swamp with a fire blade in his hand. The yellow sand under his feet was directly vitrified by the high temperature: "Zanpakutō, Ryūjin Jakka."
"Ryūjin Jakka?" Kakashi whispered in fear.
Boom!
A sonic boom sounded, and Hitani turned into a flame, rushing past Kakashi at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and appeared behind Kakashi.
Kakashi was stunned, and when he came to his senses, he was about to speak…
Puff!
Before he could finish his words, Kakashi's shoulder exploded, and his entire right arm was cut off. The severed arm was burned into slag in the air before it hit the ground.
"Ah!!" Kakashi screamed, half-knelt on the ground, holding his broken arm. There was no blood coming out of the wound because it had been charred by the flames.
Hitani turned and looked at Kakashi, his eyes reflecting the flames, without any emotion.
"Damn it…" Kakashi tried to stand up, but because of the pain and the high temperature of the flames, he was already dehydrated and couldn't stand at all.
"Choose one." Hitani pointed his Ryūjin Jakka at him and said, "You, Uzumaki Naruto, Haruno Sakura, one of the three has to die, who do you choose?"
"What?" Kakashi was stunned.
"Your companion Uzuki Yugao said that if I can let you go, no matter what I ask her to do, she will obey me unconditionally, but I don't want to let all of you go, one of you three must die." Hitani smiled, "Well, choose one."
"Naruto, Yugao said this to you?" Kakashi stared at Hitani, "Naruto and Sakura are my students! I won't allow you to hurt them! I won't choose anyone!"
"If you don't choose, I will choose for you." Hitani walked to the unconscious Haruno Sakura and pointed his Ryūjin Jakka at Sakura's neck: "Let's choose her. She seems to be very annoying, a woman who knows nothing but shouting. It wouldn't be a bad thing if she died."
"Stop it!" Kakashi struggled to stand up, but fell back again, his face pale.
Hitani laughed and stabbed a knife into Haruno Sakura's throat.
Puff!
Haruno Sakura's body trembled, and then her pupils quickly turned gray, and a lot of blood flowed from under her body.
Seeing this, Kakashi was stunned for a few seconds before he shouted, "Sakura!!"
"That's enough." Hitani swung the blade, releasing the Shikai state of Ryūjin Jakka. The surrounding flames disappeared instantly, and everything returned to its previous calm state.

"Kakashi, this time it was because of Uzuki Yugao that I didn't kill all of you, but next time we meet you won't be so lucky. Remember my name, I'm Hitani, the enemy of Konoha." After saying this, Hitani walked away, and his figure quickly disappeared in the desert.
Looking at his departing back, Kakashi gritted his teeth and said, "Next time we meet, you won't be so lucky, Hitani!"
