Kakashi of the Sharingan
Whenever we talk about Naruto anime, we just can't sleep on the name of Kakashi - the Copy Ninja. He is one of the most skillful Shinobi, Hokage (in the later stages) and the mentor of Team 7 - yes, the legendary team that consisted of both Naruto and Sasuke. He also worked in the Anbu Cops with Itachi, but left after a while. And the reason behind the same is something that is not hidden but still not discussed a lot.Here we will explore why Kakashi of the Sharingan left Anbu Cops and the things that unfolded in front of him after that.

Kakashi and his exit from Anbu Cops

To understand why Kakashi left Anbu Cops, we first need to understand why he joined in the first place. So, after Rin's death and Obito out of the scene (everyone thought he was dead), Kakashi lost his purpose in his life. To cope with all the depression, he joined Anbu Cops, where he got involved in different types of missions. However, keeping in mind that most of the missions were nothing but cold-blooded assassinations, Kakashi stopped feeling emotions.
And why not, for someone to lose his best friends, Dad, sensei, all of that in a span of a few years will shut the emotion switch down for sure. Now, when Hiruzen Sarutobi, the third Hokage, saw Kakashi's state, he immediately ordered him to leave Anbu cops and connect with people again, especially the younger generation of the village. And once he was familiar with people, Kakashi got assigned the duty of Team 7's mentor. This changed his life to a great extent, along with changing the lives of Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura. Moving forward, he played a major role in the fourth Shinobi war, where we got to see him against his childhood best friend, Obito Uchiha, in one on one battles. Kakashi also showed leadership when he became the sixth Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village. While some of the fans might have wanted to see Kakashi in Anbu Cops for a longer time, a majority agrees that the character development of Kakashi was one of the best.
