He starts by trying to discourage Sasuke from avenging the Uchiha clan , insisting that, even if he's successful, it won't bring back those who are already dead. Sasuke retorts that Kakashi doesn't understand what he's going through and offers to kill the people most precious to Kakashi, only for Kakashi to reply that those very people are already dead.
Sasuke is surprised and puts up less resistance, so Kakashi tells him that taking revenge for those that he's lost is not worth also losing those he still has, namely Naruto and Sakura. To that end, he encourages Sasuke to start using Chidori for its intended purpose: protecting friends rather than attacking them. He unties Sasuke and leaves for his mission, intending for what he said to sink in.
When he returns, Tsunade informs him that Sasuke has defected to Orochimaru and that Naruto and a team of genin were sent after him. Upset with himself for not spending more time defusing Sasuke's angst, Kakashi goes after him, fearful that he and Naruto may kill each other.
He summons his ninken to help him track Sasuke and Naruto, eventually finding the latter unconscious at the Valley of the End. Because it's raining he can't find Sasuke's trail, and besides Naruto needs medical attention. He takes him back to Konoha and releases him into the care of the Medic Corps. Having no students to lead anymore, Kakashi resumes his prior mission schedule. He takes command of the team and eventually defeats Nagare and Hokushin with relative ease.
Main article: Sunagakure Support Mission In the anime, Kakashi is sent to spy on the Takumi Village in order to investigate rumours of an uprising. There, he finds the entire village abandoned.
He is later part of the reinforcements sent to Sunagakure to help deal with the Four Celestial Symbols Men , only to discover that Naruto's team already successfully completed the mission. Kakashi is sent to Amegakure to invite its ninja to participate, a mere pretext for him to investigate rumours surrounding the village.
It immediately becomes apparent to him that, although Ame's ninja don't know the identity of the intruder, they are aware that someone has infiltrated the village. Kakashi decides to go back to Konoha rather than risk causing an incident. Main article: Kazekage Rescue Mission Kakashi is the first person to greet Naruto when he returns from his two-and-a-half years of training with Jiraiya.
Naruto gives him a copy of Icha Icha Tactics as a present, which Kakashi wastes no time starting to read. As Naruto goes off to see Sakura, Jiraiya warns Kakashi that Akatsuki will be making a move in the near future.
After Naruto and Sakura have had a chance to catch-up, Kakashi reforms Team 7 and gives them another bell test. Unlike last time, taking the bells from him is the real objective. Kakashi also decides to take the test seriously by uncovering his Sharingan and closing his copy of Icha Icha Tactics. As with last time, Naruto launches a first attack before the test officially begins, but this time it nearly succeeds. Kakashi is impressed by this and other signs of their improvement, but by nightfall they still haven't taken a bell.
Tired of this, Naruto tries spoiling the ending of Icha Icha Tactics , forcing Kakashi to cover his ears so as not to hear it and shut his eyes so as not to read Naruto's lips. This allows Naruto and Sakura to each take a bell. Team 7 is sent to Sunagakure to lend assistance in rescuing Gaara.
Team 7 gathers what intel they can on Gaara's kidnappers and leave to go after them; Chiyo volunteers to escort them since they aren't familiar with the country around Suna. While en route to an Akatsuki lair, they are confronted by Itachi Uchiha. Team 7 arrives at the Akatsuki lair shortly after Team Guy does, who were sent as backup by Tsunade.
After Team Guy takes down the barrier over the entrance, Team 7 moves in and finds Gaara's body with his kidnappers: Deidara and Sasori. Once he's ready, Kakashi uses Kamui on Deidara, but his aim is off and he succeeds only in removing one of Deidara's arms.
This creates an opening for Naruto to take Gaara back, which Deidara responds to by creating a Suicide Bombing Clone to cover his escape; Kakashi uses Kamui again to warp the explosion away. After they regroup with Chiyo and Sakura, Chiyo gives her life to revive Gaara.
Teams 7 and Guy attend her funeral in Sunagakure before returning home. Main article: Tenchi Bridge Reconnaissance Mission During her fight with Sasori, Sakura learned of an opportunity to possibly meet with Sasuke in a few days' time. Kakashi must remain in bed while he recovers and therefore cannot go. Main article: Akatsuki Suppression Mission Although Team 7 was able to meet Sasuke, he was too strong for them to capture and bring back to Konoha.
Once Kakashi's done recuperating he calls them before him and is introduced to Sai , who is effectively Sasuke's replacement on the team; they speak only briefly but both of approve of each other.
Kakashi believes the best way to match Sasuke would be for Naruto to create a new jutsu. Before he can elaborate further, they are interrupted by the arrival of Asuma Sarutobi and the rest of Team To help Naruto create a new jutsu, Kakashi first establishes what his nature is: wind. With that settled, Kakashi trains Naruto in how to learn to use the wind nature. Ordinarily, such training would take months or years, but Naruto, by training alongside hundreds of shadow clones , can do the same training in a mere fraction of the time.
With Kakashi's instructions and the training grounds created by Yamato, Naruto quickly masters how to use the wind nature. The next step is more difficult for him: combining that nature with the Rasengan. Because Kakashi and Minato Namikaze both failed to combine their natures with the Rasengan, Kakashi can't offer Naruto any tips and can only watch as he tries to develop something. When they receive news that Asuma died in battle with members of Akatsuki, they take a break to attend Asuma's funeral.
Because he can be of no further assistance to Naruto, Kakashi leaves Yamato in charge of watching over him. Kakashi, meanwhile, volunteers to help Team 10 avenge Asuma; Shikamaru Nara , having previously come up with a plan, modifies it to take Kakashi's presence into consideration.
Once they locate the Akatsuki members, Hidan and Kakuzu , Kakashi hides until Kakuzu is driven to use his Earth Spear , at which point Kakashi pierces him through the heart with his Lightning Cutter. Kakuzu, who has more than one heart, fends Kakashi off and uses the elemental masks of his Earth Grudge Fear to put Team 10 on the defensive. Needing to separate Hidan and Kakuzu if they're to have any chance of victory, Shikamaru takes a vial of Kakuzu's blood that Kakashi secretly collected and leads Hidan away.
Shikamaru is able to trick Hidan into using the blood to curse Kakuzu, destroying a second of his hearts in time to stop him from stealing Kakashi's. Angered by the loss of two hearts, Kakuzu prepares to kill Kakashi and Team His attack is blocked by the combined efforts of Naruto and Yamato, who arrive with Sakura and Sai to lend assistance.
Kakashi summons Pakkun to lead Sakura and Sai to Shikamaru in case he needs help while everyone else prepares to attack Kakuzu. Naruto, having finished his jutsu, volunteers to face Kakuzu alone. His new Wind Release: Rasenshuriken is temperamental, however, forcing Kakashi and Yamato to rescue him when it fails on its first use. It succeeds the second time, destroying two of Kakuzu's hearts and putting the last one on the brink of failure.
Kakashi is deeply impressed by the Rasenshuriken and tells Kakuzu that the previous generation being surpassed by the next was perfectly natural. Kakashi then finished Kazuku off with a Lightning Cutter. Main article: Three-Tails' Appearance In the anime, Kakashi leads Team 8 on a mission to investigate one of Orochimaru 's recently-discovered bases.
During their investigation they are attacked by Guren - one of Orochimaru's subordinates - who traps them in her Jade Crystal Labyrinth Technique. Team 7 eventually arrives to lend assistance and helps them escape, but while going after Guren they come across the Three-Tails. Kakashi requests additional assistance from Konoha and, once it arrives, they attempt to seal the Three-Tails.
Guren and her team interrupt them and the Three-Tails gets away, but Guren's team is defeated. They are then recalled to Konoha, with Anbu sent to seal the Three-Tails in their place. Main article: Itachi Pursuit Mission. News reaches Konoha that Sasuke has killed Orochimaru. Realising that this is a good opportunity to try once again to reunite with Sasuke, Kakashi combines Teams 7 and 8 into an Eight Man Squad with the mission to find either Sasuke or his assumed target, Itachi.
They split up to look for leads on either Uchiha, with Kakashi providing one or more of his ninken to those without any particular tracking ability.
None find anything until witnessing C0 ; they converge at its epicentre and can detect Sasuke's trail. They make repeated attempts to kill or capture him, but every attack passes through him without sign of damage. Zetsu eventually appears and reports to Tobi that Itachi has died in battle with Sasuke.
No longer needing to distract the Eight Man Squad, Tobi disappears; before he goes, Kakashi notices that he has a Sharingan. Kakashi scouts the area and notices Itachi's Amaterasu in the distance.
They rush there, hoping to reach Sasuke before Tobi does, but they are too late and cannot rediscover his trail. Main article: Six-Tails Unleashed In the anime, Katsuyu meets them as they return to Konoha to give them a new mission: helping the Tsuchigumo clan protect its forbidden technique. Kakashi sends Yamato with Team 7 to complete the mission while he returns to the village with Team 8. He is present when this news is shared with Naruto, who was too distraught to be of assistance and needed some time alone.
Before he died, Jiraiya sent a number of things to Konoha that would help them against Pain, including an encrypted message. Shikamaru is able to properly console and get Naruto to help him decode it, who realises that the key to its decryption must be Icha Icha Tactics.
Kakashi, having the only copy, is asked to read specific passages aloud, which makes him extremely uncomfortable. Nevertheless, the message is deciphered. Kakashi guesses this tactic and goes searching for one of the latter group. In doing so he finds the Deva Path , and by confronting it he is able to save Iruka Umino.
Kakashi tries to corner the Deva Path so that he can destroy it with his Lightning Cutter, but it repels him with Shinra Tensei. From careful observation of the Deva Path's abilities, Kakashi notices a brief cool down period between its jutsu. When they are deflected by Shinra Tensei, they grab the chains and restrain him, giving Kakashi an opportunity to attack with his Lightning Cutter.
Before he can land the blow, the Asura Path uses itself as a shield, giving the Deva Path time to counter. It defeats all of Kakashi's reinforcements and binds Kakashi in rubble. Anticipating that Kakashi will interfere if allowed to live, the Deva Path propels a nail at his head to kill him and leaves.
Kakashi, however, only pretends death, warping away the nail at the last moment with Kamui. This depletes his chakra reserves and causes his death. After dying, Kakashi finds his father, Sakumo , waiting for him.
He entreats Kakashi to tell him about his life, with which Kakashi complies. He concludes his story by saying that he understands the choices Sakumo made when he was alive and that he is proud to be his son. Just then, a light envelops Kakashi, a sign of his revival ; before Kakashi returns to the living plane, Sakumo thanks him for putting him at peace at long last, allowing him to continue to the afterlife.
Kakashi wakes up, surprising those nearby. He is informed of what happened while he was dead, such as that Pain destroyed the village and that Naruto, upon returning, defeated Pain. As Naruto returns to Konoha, Kakashi goes to meet him and carries him back, where his victory is celebrated by all the villagers. When this indeed fails, Naruto decides to talk with the Fourth Raikage instead, who has made it his goal to personally kill Sasuke.
Despite the travel limitations in place due to the approaching Five Kage Summit , Kakashi and Yamato agree to accompany him. Kakashi neutralises the Anbu assigned to keep an eye on Naruto and Yamato plants his Transmission Wood on Team Samui in order to follow them to the Raikage.
When they find the Raikage in the Land of Iron , Kakashi, the only one amongst them that the Raikage recognises, asks that Naruto be allowed to speak with him. The Raikage permits it, but even with his and Yamato's support, he refuses Naruto's request to forgive Sasuke's recent work with Akatsuki and leaves them. They stay at an inn nearby while deciding what to do, where Naruto is confronted by Tobi. Having expected him, Kakashi and Yamato attack and restrain him, though he points out that he can escape whenever he wants.
Rather than do that, he tells them about Sasuke's motivations: to take vengeance on Konoha for forcing Itachi to kill the Uchiha clan. They doubt what he says regarding the Uchiha Clan Downfall , but Tobi is unconcerned, leaving once he's finished saying to Naruto what he wanted to. Afterwards, Kakashi encourages that three of them keep what Tobi said between them until they knew more and if what Tobi said was true. Naruto decides that the only course of action left is to speak with Sasuke himself.
His attempt to locate Sasuke is interrupted by the arrival of Sai and Sakura, the latter of whom tells Naruto she loves him. Kakashi doubts this is the real reason for coming all the way to the Land of Iron, which one of Sai's ink clones confirms after Sakura and her entourage leave: the rest of the Konoha 11 have decided that it's their responsibility, as Sasuke's former friends, to kill him before he sparks a war, a burden Sakura has taken for herself.
Before they can go after her, they are met by Gaara and his bodyguards, who tell them about Sasuke's attack on the summit and Tobi's declaration of the Fourth Shinobi World War. Naruto is overwhelmed by all the developments going on and passes out.
Kakashi leaves Naruto with Yamato and has Sai's ink clone guide him to Sakura so that he can stop her. The clone dissolves along the way, which it explains to be because Sakura knocked out the original Sai. Kakashi catches up with her in time to stop Sasuke from killing her with Chidori. Kakashi tells Sakura that she doesn't need to take responsibility for Sasuke since he, as Sasuke's former teacher, is much more to blame for the team's growing rift and current dire situation.
He asks Sasuke once more to let go of his thirst for vengeance, but Sasuke laughs in his face, having been too corrupted by Tobi to be reasoned with any longer. As he prepares for battle, Kakashi remarks that he finally understands what the Third Hokage went through with Orochimaru. Sasuke uses his Susanoo to fire an arrow at Kakashi, which he warps away with Kamui. Sasuke is enraged by this use of an Uchiha's ability and threatens to make Kakashi suffer.
While he does so, Sakura approaches from behind to kill him, but ultimately cannot and Kakashi, tired from using Kamui, can't reach her in time to save her from Sasuke's retaliation. Sakura is saved by Naruto. Kakashi tells Naruto to take Sakura away. Naruto thinks that Kakashi is going to kill Sasuke.
Naruto instead restrains Kakashi and fights Sasuke himself. From the clash of their Chidori and Rasengan, as well as the following conversation, Naruto and Sasuke decide to temporarily suspend hostilities until later when they, and only they, will face each other in battle.
Kakashi agrees to these terms, but insists on being allowed to eliminate Tobi with Kamui when he comes to fetch Sasuke; Tobi stops him, telling him it won't work, and leaves with Sasuke. Because Konoha now needs another Hokage, Kakashi reluctantly agrees to the appointment.
He meets with Tsunade later and thanks her for waking up before he got stuck with any real responsibility. Kakashi confronts Kabuto Yakushi , who gets away by distracting him with reincarnated ninja. He trails Disonasu to a meeting with Kabuto, who is trying to resurrect the Ama no Hoko. They are afterwards able to deactivate the Ama no Hoko, though Kabuto himself escapes once again. Kakashi provides his ninken to Kiba in his place, believing they would be more useful to him. Kakashi rushes off to lend assistance, only to be told on arrival that the SOS was sent accidentally when Guy was struggling with seasickness.
Unneeded, Kakashi returns to the village. In the anime, he requests that Guy be his second-in-command. The Third Division is mobilised ahead of the other divisions in order to be on hand for any eventuality. While seeking out an Akatsuki force, they notice and heads towards one of the Surprise Attack Division 's distress flares. Kabuto, their summoner, ends their conversation short by suppressing their personalities, so Haku and Zabuza they use their last moments to beg Kakashi to defeat them.
Zabuza uses the Hiding in Mist Technique to hide his and the others' movements, putting the Third Division on the defensive. Kakashi is able to analyse their attack strategy and formulate a response, but other reincarnated members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist appear on the battlefield before Kakashi has a chance to put his plan into action. Despite mounting casualties, Kakashi sticks to his original plan: he sneaks up on Zabuza and attacks with the Lightning Cutter, intending to dispel the heavy mist.
Kakashi avoids injury and attacks with another Lightning Cutter, this time hitting Zabuza and also connecting Ensui Nara 's shadow to his. With Zabuza immobilised and Haku damaged, both are bound by the Sealing Team.
With the mist gone, the swordsmen seemingly retreat. Kakashi takes this opportunity to allow his team to rest and recuperate. The next day, in the anime, Kakashi defeats Jinin Akebino , [87] and later teams up with Guy to keep Jinpachi Munashi and Kushimaru Kuriarare busy until they are also sealed. Part of the White Zetsu Army then arrive to fight the Third Division, but they are met by one of Naruto's shadow clones, sent to lend assistance with defeating the remnants of Akatsuki's forces.
Kakashi and Guy eventually leave the Third Division to join the original Naruto and Killer B in their fight with Tobi , arriving in time to stop Tobi from capturing Naruto. From fighting them, however, none use the any of the Six Paths Techniques, leading Kakashi to believe Tobi doesn't have the energy for it. Unable to do anything against such large opponents, Kakashi and Guy leave them to Naruto and B. It ends up not being necessary as Naruto, by entering his own Tailed Beast Mode, deflects their attacks and subsequently frees them from Tobi.
Fighting continues into the night, with neither side emerging victorious. When they realise what Tobi is doing, Kakashi and the others focus on destroying the Demonic Statue before it can complete its metamorphosis into the Ten-Tails.
Tobi defends the Demonic Statue from all of their attacks and, as ever, is himself seemingly impervious to damage, with everything passing through him. After an exchange of attacks, of which Kakashi blocks Tobi's with Kamui, Kakashi notices some slight damage to Tobi's mask.
Having a theory about this, he has Guy and Naruto help him test it and is ultimately able to confirm: attacks warped away with Kamui at the same moment that Tobi is impervious will damage Tobi, thereby suggesting a link between their abilities.
Kakashi asks where Tobi acquired his Sharingan, to which he replies it was on the same mission to the Kannabi Bridge that Kakashi got his own.
Kakashi is troubled by what this might mean, but doesn't overlook the important fact that they now have a way of fighting Tobi. Kakashi secretly uses Kamui on one of Naruto's shadow clones to send it to Kamui's dimension which, when Tobi retreats there to escape the real Naruto's attack, attacks Tobi and destroys his mask. Kakashi is devastated to discover that the friend whose death he's mourned for over a decade is actually alive.
Kakashi asks Obito why he never returned to Konoha, to which Obito replies that it's because Kakashi allowed Rin Nohara to die. Kakashi, meanwhile, tries to question Obito more, who ignores him and instead uses his own Kamui on Kakashi.
Kakashi figures out how to use Kamui to return, prompting Obito to try to kill him. Naruto blocks the attack and vows not to let his teammates die. Naruto's words remind Kakashi of the Obito he used to know, inspiring him to join the offensive again. After the Nine-Tails replenishes his chakra, Kakashi lets Obito send him to Kamui's dimension, where he attacks Obito's body parts whenever they transport there to avoid Naruto's attacks.
He then uses Kamui to return, only to witness the Ten-Tails complete its revival. Obito and Madara attach themselves to the Ten-Tails, focusing it destructive power against Kakashi and the others. Sakura heals Kakashi and they then join the Allies' coordinated effort to restrain the Ten-Tails, but it breaks free by transforming. Many die in the Ten-Tails' counterattack, but another coordinated assault successfully removes the Ten-Tails from Madara and Obito's control.
Now free to act on its own, the Ten-Tails prepares to use Tenpenchii. Kakashi attempts to stop it with Kamui, but Obito intercepts him and takes him to Kamui's dimension. When they get there, Kakashi lunges at Obito with a Lightning Cutter, but stops short of actually killing him with it. This is due to the fact that we know how much time has passed between the end of the Naruto series and the beginning of the Naruto Shippuden series. There is a two and a half year long time jump in between to series.
This means that if Kakashi was 29 or 30 at the end of the Naruto series, he would be either 31 or 32 at the beginning of Naruto Shippuden. Although both are possible, there are a few clues that point to 31 being the more likely age.
The cannon confirms that Kakashi was 31 by the time the Fourth Shinobi War ended since we know that he was 31 when he was promoted to the position of the Sixth Hokage. Unlike the other series, Naruto Shippuden takes place over a time period of approximately a year which means that Kakashi was either the same age as he was at the beginning of the series or a year longer at oldest.
There is a significant gap till the Epilogue. This occurs 15 years after the end of the original series end, as we know. Boruto had to be about 10 or 11 years old to be accepted into the Academy.
This simply adds to our presumptions. Kakashi was placed in charge of his team for a mission, and pretty much everything went wrong that could possibly go wrong. His teammate Rin was kidnapped and his teammate Obito wanted to save her. Though Kakashi initially wanted to complete the mission first, he ultimately decided to help Obito.
Though the duo were able to save Rin, Obito ended up sacrificing himself to save Kakashi as well. The eye included his new awakened sharingan. So, Kakashi became Kakashi of the Sharingan at the same age he gained his jonin status: That got him into the Konohagakure spy organization called the Anbu. Kakashi became even more withdrawn from his former classmates and suffered from depression. He challenged himself to become better skilled so he and Kakashi could become equals.
After that, the two did actually engage in competitions, and eventually, became friends. Information about the blood types of Naruto characters was included in behind the scenes information in the manga, as well as in Naruto databooks.
Kakashi started as a ninja and became Genin around the age of 5 and started his first missions in Team Minato with Rin and Obito as Chunin at 6 years old.
So we can assume that Kakashi is 6 years old during the Team Minato Era. There is probably an age difference between Kakashi and Obito for about 4 years. Kakashi joined the Anbu when he is around 13 years old and stayed there for almost ten years. Kakashi was 14 years old when the mysterious masked man unleashed the fury of Nine Tails Kyuubi on Konoha.
