Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

After making sure that Yui was alright, and back to her usual self, the two separated from their position, Yui got busy with cooking while Kuroto was back to his study.

In the series of battles a few days ago, Kuroto had quite a lot of gains, aside from the 45 million Ryo he got as the exchange money for the bounty on Watanabe’s head, the body and soul match of Water Clone Body has increased quite a lot.

Additionally, Kuroto also developed a good understanding of Water Nature Chakra and Wind Nature Chakra, finally, the Ice Release was also used in combat making him gain quite a lot of experience.

So, all in all, he can conclude that the strength of the Water Clone Body has reached Kage level, which is acceptable for now.

According to Kuroto’s plan, a perfect clone must fulfill two requirements to be suitable for Chimera Technique.

First is the body and soul compatibility.

The second is the strength, the higher, the better.

The first element is progressing smoothly and over time body and soul compatibility will be perfect.

As for the second, Kuroto knows that all the clones can’t have the same level of strength as his main body, but if you don’t count the Tenseigan Chakra Mode of his main body, then, it is very much possible, after all, Tenseigan Chakra Mode is as it says, a special mode, and it is limited to a certain amount of time, so it shouldn’t be counted when comparing the base strength.

The other thing Kuroto has understood is that the most effective way to cultivate a clone into a perfect state is mastering a Kekkei Genkai related to the specific Chakra Nature.

Just for a simple example, the Water Clone body wasn’t nearly strong enough with just mastering of Water Chakra Nature, but when he fused the Water and Wind Nature to give birth to Ice Release, the strength improved significantly.

Now with that was out of the way.

“It’s time I consider which clone to make next…” – muttered Kuroto with a thoughtful look.

After having experienced developing Water Chakra Nature Clone, Kuroto was not in a hurry to determine the main attribute of the next clone, because he also needs to consider the Kekkei Genkai he would be learning for that Chakra Nature.

…

A few days later, Shisui and Kuroto secretly met up.

Kuroto noticed Shisui’s change and he understood that Shisui has finally made up his mind.

After a short silence between the two, Shisui said, “Kuroto-san, I have chosen the target as per the requirements.”

Kuroto wasn’t surprised and asked, “So, who did you choose?”

“Uchiha Ryota and Uchiha Hideki.” – after a pause, Shisui continued, “They are brothers just as you asked, both of them are also elite Jonin…”

Uchiha Ryota and Uchiha Hideki?

Kuroto does know the two of them since Anbu is responsible for monitoring the Uchiha Clan, so the basic information of all the top elites has been thoroughly memorized by all the elite Anbu members.

Uchiha Ryota’s public position is very clear, an elite, captain of the third squad of Konoha Military Police Force, in terms of rank, he is no worse than a squad commander in the Anbu department, he undoubtedly holds a key position, that is of the same level as the leader of enchantment, sensor and medic squad.

And being an elite Jonin, there is no doubt that his strength is very high.

As for Uchiha Hideki even if he knows basic information about Uchiha Hideki, this person doesn’t seem to be too impressive.

After recalling their information Kuroto asked curiously, “Why did you choose the two of them?”

Shisui was silent for a while, then spoke, “Uchiha Ryota is not only one of the most radical and supports the idea of Coup d’état, but he is also responsible for the secret tasks that are carried out from the shadows, I am afraid his hands are stained with the blood of…”

Shisui didn’t need to finish that sentence as Kuroto nodded in understanding, “That is to say, Uchiha Ryota is responsible for doing the so-called dirty work, right?”

The relationship between various clans and Hokage faction involves many interests and benefits, so it is inevitable one or two people of the clan do the dirty work for the benefits of the clan, Hyuga Clan is no exception to this nor is the Uchiha Clan, of course, all these battles of interest and benefits are carried out in the shadows.

Publicly, the relationship between the clan remains unchanged despite all the sparks and blood that shadows hide.

When he thought of Uchiha Ryota, Shisui couldn’t help but speak, “Ever since the fact that I awakened Mangekyou Sharingan was made public, Ryota’s personality has become violent, and he doesn’t let even a single chance slip to cause conflict, initially it was just to the degree of annoyance, but lately, he has started to give off some bad vibe.”

Kuroto nodded and after a bit of thinking, he asked, “And what about his brother Uchiha Hideki?”

“Uchiha Hideki by nature is a bit mild compared to his brother, but…” – taking a pause to sigh, Shisui continued, “But he is responsible for stockpiling the war supplies; if he is eliminated successfully, then it should be possible to temporarily delay the Coup!”

“Hmmm, you are right, these two targets are good, alright, it seems you have carefully considered the targets.” – Kuroto said.

Both the brothers have enough strength to be among the top 10 within the Uchiha Clan, one is responsible for doing the dirty work, while the other is responsible for hoarding war supplies, the two together also have a strong influence on the other members of Uchiha Clan, if these two are eliminated, then the Uchiha Clan would be greatly wounded.

Shisui didn’t say anything, just nodded silently.

Even if he made up his mind, the guilt of conspiring against and betraying the Clan still makes him feel ashamed of himself.

Kuroto glanced at Shisui but didn’t console him, after all, ‘One needs to sacrifice something in order to achieve something’

Changing the topic, Kuroto asked, “By the way Shisui, you don’t happen to be the only pacifist in your clan, right?”

Shisui raised his head at Kuroto’s question and responded with an awkward chuckle, “Most of the chunin and above support the Coup, however, there are still many genin and chunin who don’t support this idea.”

Kuroto said, “So, only some of the genin and chunin are opposed to the idea of Coup?”

Shisui couldn’t help but sigh, and suddenly said, “You remember Uchiha Itachi, right?”

Kuroto nodded, how can he ever forget the Uchiha Itachi?

Seeing Kuroto-san’s nod, Shisui said, “Uchiha Itachi is also against the idea of Coup!”

“Is that so?” – muttered Kuroto, he didn’t need Shisui to tell him this.

Shisui obviously didn’t know Kuroto’s thought, “Yes, Uchiha Itachi also wishes to resolve the rift between the Clan and the Village without the Coup!”

“Uchiha Itachi, huh?” – muttered Kuroto, turning his face to the side, Kuroto said thoughtfully, “In that case, why don’t you bring him into our plan?”

“What!!!!???” – exclaimed Shisui, “No-no-no-no, this is impossible, Itachi is the eldest son of Patriarch, and without any accident, he will become the next Patriarch of the Uchiha Clan, so his position is not the same as me and he is never allowed to betray the clan!”

Kuroto looked at Shisui with a strange expression.

Seeing this Shisui quickly explained, “Kuroto-san, what I said is true, any member of the clan may be allowed to betray the clan, but Itachi is never allowed!”

Shisui helped in Itachi’s training whenever he was free, aside from the friendship between the two, Shisui also hopes to influence Itachi’s mindset, being the next patriarch, if Itachi is different from the general Uchiha, then he could really improve the relationship of the clan and the village.

With several contacts with Itachi, Shisui has come to understand that Itachi is a very kind child, therefore, Shisui doesn’t want to burden Itachi with the guilt of raising his blade on the members of the clan that he is supposed to be protecting.

Listening to Shisui’s words, Kuroto didn’t know what to say anymore.

After all, it is the very same Uchiha Itachi who nearly annihilated the entire Uchiha Clan in the original story.

Kuroto can’t help but feel that Shisui’s vision is a bit messed up.

Kuroto has even started to wonder if Kami-sama feels he owes Shisui too much in this regard, so he bestowed Shisui with Kotoamatsukami, a Genjutsu that can subtly modify other’s will according to Shisui’s liking…
