This villain’s alias is discovered to be Uchiha Madara, in the final portion of the show. Anyway, Kakashi dies after losing the battle against Nagata Pain. The death scene wasn’t to be a joke; instead it was intended to demonstrate how gifted people are often isolated because of their inability to socialize. It was also revealed that Kishimoto was the creator of Naruto loved Sasuke Uchiha who was one of the main characters in the anime.

Who Is Kakashi Hatake?

Kakashi Hatake is a shinobi from Kakashi Hatake, a shinobi from the Hidden Leaf Village, he is part of the Hatake clan, who are poor farmers.

The father of Kakashi Sakumo is his primary source of inspiration to become Ninjas, also often referred to as the White Fang of the Leaf Sakumo’s father, who was known for his skill and dedication to his village, to the point that some thought he was stronger than his village’s famous Sannin.

Sakumo’s wife as well as Kakashi’s mother passed away when Kakashi was an infant. Sakumo was killed when a task important to him failed and, in order to not risk the lives of his colleagues Sakumo was forced to leave his mission.

The mission’s failure caused shame for Sakumo and he attempted suicide. Sakuma stood in the limbo for some time until he was able to meet his son and ask to forgive him.

Kakashi himself is a well-known shinobi from The Hidden Leaf Village. When he reached the age of 14, he became an officer in the Anbu because of his previous successes even as a youngster during The Second Shinobi World War.

When the Third Shinobi World War, Kakashi was forced to watch his teammates, Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara, pass away. Minato Uzumaki was their sensei. He removed the three men who were in charge of taking down Kannabi Bridge at the age of 12.

On Kannabi Bridge The three shinobi came being attacked by three Iwa Scouts. After Minato returned to help them escape one attack, the dead team members of the shinobi returned to abduct Rin on behalf of the teammate who died.

Instead of returning for a second chance to help Rin, Kakashi said the mission was too important to let go to save a teammate.

Obito did not accept the idea and went out by himself to save Rin and told Kakashi to tell her that the father of Sakumo had been a hero to the village and that the fact that he left his task, it’s far worse to leave one’s team members.

Kakashi initially left to complete this mission by himself however, when he realized Obito wasn’t right, and returned Obito and Rin the two were under attack.

While fighting the cave collapsed, and Kakashi’s eye got injured, he nearly crushed by the rocks until Obito forced him out of the way, and then he fell into the cave himself.

Knowing he would be dead, Obito gave Kakashi his recently earned sharingan eyes, that’s how Kakashi retains the sharingan, even though he’s not member in Uchiha. Uchiha clan.

Fugaku Uchiha, Sasuke and Itachi’s father, as well as the the head of the Uchiha clan, permitted Kakashi to preserve the sharedan to honor Obito’s passing.

In a subsequent Mission, Rin was kidnapped and later again from Kirigakure forces.

Finally, Kakashi was able to save her, however as they headed back in their home in the Hidden Leaf village Rin admits to Kakashi that the Kiri-nin locked the Three-Tails inside her body in the hope that if she lost control over it, eventually the destruction of it would be unleashed on all of the Hidden Leaf Village.

Rin demanded Kakashi murder her to defend the village, but Kakashi did not agree, citing his commitment of Obito to keep Rin in a safe place.

As the Kiri-nin swarmed their foes, Kakashi held them off in the best way he could, but in the one attack, his famous lightning Chidori Rin decided to leap into the air and then die at the hands of Kakashi to ensure that Konoha was safe away from Tailed Beasts.

The trauma caused Kakashi’s sharingan to transform into the Mangekyo Sharingan.

The village was populated by people who believed for a long time Kakashi killed Rin to ensure that he didn’t give up his cause as his father did, however Kakashi does not take action to resolve the rumors unless directly addressed to Kakashi.

This experience made Kakashi to realize the importance of working in together is the most crucial aspect a shinobi could learn. This is what he teaches in his bell tests with Genin when he’s promoted to Jonin.

It is this test Sasuke, Sakura, and Naruto must master in order to pass the notorious Bell Test and be considered Genin.
