After spending more than a decade as Hyuga Kuroto, many memories of the previous life have become blurred, so Kuroto can’t seem to remember whether Otsutsuki Toneri needed to use hand sign printing to enter the Tenseigan Chakra mode.
“If it is necessary to print hand seals, what seals should be used? And what would be the direction of flow of Chakra?”
Because of facing so many doubts and uncertainties, Kuroto now realized the troubles he was going to be facing because of the lack of knowledge he inherited from his ancestors, unlike Otsutsuki Toneri.
Furthermore, he has now reminded of the fact that all the individuals who have brought major wind and rain in the Ninja World up until now or will do so in the future like Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, Uchiha Obito, Uzumaki Nagato, Uchiha Itachi, Yondaime-sama, etc., have more or less received the careful guidance of powerful Kage-level or superior ninjas, and have, therefore, inherited all kinds of knowledge and techniques.
And him on the other hand?
Nothing!
Don’t get me wrong! He has in fact learned a vast amount of scientific knowledge under Orochimaru’s guidance, but he still doesn’t know much knowledge and techniques as a ninja.
But Kuroto is not the kind of person who would get depressed over it, if he finds a problem, then he has to find a method to solve it.
Speaking of the most valuable inheritance for Kuroto is naturally the inheritance left by Otsutsuki Hamura on the moon, there is also the guardian Giant Tenseigan formed by the fusion of a large number of Byakugan, but currently, Kuroto doesn’t know how to get on the moon, and there is also the existence of Otsutsuki Toneri on the moon so he can only ignore them for the time being.
The Hyuga Familly may have hidden some secret inheritance, which may be worthy of his attention.
Orochimaru’s research and development capabilities are among the best in the world, so if he wants to go any further, the connection with Orochimaru cannot be broken.
But the way of cooperation, Kuroto felt that it had to be changed.
Continuing to be a spy for Orochimaru, being a marionette without any self-consciousness, has no future in his opinion. He must change his identity from a mere subordinate to a collaborator to gain profit from it.
This again involves a question of his strength. In the ninja world, the weak are not qualified to talk about cooperation with the strong.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter thoroughly re-adjusting his mentality, Kuroto began to evaluate his current combat capabilities.
In terms of Chakra, he has undoubtedly surpassed the level of a high-level Chunin and almost reached the level of a Special Jonin, coupled with the unparalleled insight of the Tenseigan, as well as the soft fist and the unpredictable Rein Wheel Push/Pull. If not unexpected, he feels that defeating a Tokubetsu Jonin is possible for him, but if facing a real jonin?
He will most certainly die!
Of course, that is only according to his current strength level.
With the enrichment of experience and the further development of the Tenseigan, he believes that it will not take long for his strength to reach the level of a Jonin, even surpass the elite Jonin.
By then, he will be qualified to have a good talk with Orochimaru-sensei.
After looking forward to the future, Kuroto brought his thoughts back to the present.
He is still in the village’s cleansing plan, and his strength is far from the point where he can wrestle with the village. Therefore, how to protect himself without exposing his Tenseigan is his immediate priority.
As soon as he returned to the outpost, Mitsui recruited Kuroto and said coldly, “Be prepare, there is a task for you tomorrow.”
Kuroto’s expression shrank: “What mission?”
Mitsui said: “I will personally lead the team, and I will talk about the specific task tomorrow on the road.”
Kuroto wanted to refuse, but after a slight hesitation, he finally nodded.
In fact, he also knew that he had already escaped a round of cleansing because of his ‘illness’, so now that he has recovered from his illness, he can’t afford to rely on it anymore.
The next day.
The heavily armed Kuroto and Mitsui set off because the Mitarashi Anko’s injuries were not healed, so only the two of them participated in this operation.
On the way, Mitsui gave a brief explanation of the task.
Like the previous missions of Anko and Oda, it is also to respond to the Konoha spy lurking in the Sand hidden Village and retrieve the information collected by the spy.
After listening to the mission introduction, Kuroto was 100% sure that this mission was a trap to cleanse him.
His expression on the outside remained the same, but he thought to himself in his heart: “Who will be responsible for final execution? Is it the root ninja? Or the Anbu? Or will it be a Sand Ninja?”
If it’s the root ninja, Kuroto can be sure that nine out of ten chances of the person who presided over the purge is Shimura Danzo, and if it was Anbu, then the eight out of ten chances for the person responsible is Sandaime, but if it was Sand Shinobi, the situation could be complicated.
If it’s Sand, it would simply mean that the Konoha village and Sand Village have reached a consensus.
In other words, this is no longer a matter within the village, but a matter involving more than one Village. The authorities of both the village behind the scenes are probably responsible not just a certain person, that would eventually mean but the entire Konoha high-level decision-making body.
While running through, Kuroto quickly analyzed the situation that he was about to face in his mind.
‘To deal with a Chunin promoted during Wartime, there is no need to dispatch a Jonin! The opponent should be a four-person team composed of Chunin.’
‘Because I belong to the Hyuga clan, the other party should not presuppose an ambush, otherwise, it would be exposed in advance.’
‘The other party should attack me from all directions after I reach the junction point. Or, pretending to be a junction, take advantage of my precautions, and strike the killing move!”
So what role does this Mitsui play in all this? Is he just leading me into the ambush, or would he participate in the siege?”
After awakening, the Tenseigan, Kuroto’s mentality is gradually changing. If earlier, all he wanted was to survive, then now he has more desire and ambition in his heart.
It is also because of Tenseigan that he is full of confidence, so after getting rid of negative emotions such as fear, confusion, etc., he accurately analyzed the situation that he might face.
After a long crossing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMitsui and Kuroto came to the junction, here is the Gobi covered with rubble. The surrounding area can be described as unobstructed, and it is not a suitable place to make contact.
At the far end, stood a lone figure, appeared a little fuzzy in the wind and sand.
Kuroto stared at him and immediately found that the opponent’s body contained a large volume of chakras that far exceeded the level of a Chunin.
In addition, Kuroto also found that besides the figure, there seemed to be some corpses of Sand Shinobi lying stumblingly.
This strange scene made Kuroto feel the danger. He immediately stopped and said in a deep voice, “Captain, something seems to be wrong.”
Mitsui also frowned tightly at this moment, obviously, the situation before him was a little different from what he had expected.
But he didn’t have the sharp insight of Kuroto, so he could neither judge the strength of the stranger nor observe the few corpses looming in the sand at the feet of the stranger through the wind and sand.
After hesitating for a while, Mitsui ordered: “Go, let’s go over!”
Mitsui was the captain. He gave the order, so Kuroto had no choice but to follow him slowly towards the stranger.
After a while, the two came to the stranger.
The stranger was wrapped in a gray-brown cloak, and even his face was covered with a cloth cover, only a pair of bright eyes were exposed, but the pupil in these eyes was extremely murderous, like a beast watching his prey.
At this time, Mitsui found a few corpses dressed in sand hidden costumes lying at the stranger’s feet, and his face suddenly became embarrassed: “You…Who are you?”
The stranger slowly uncovered his hood, pulled off the cloth cover, tilted his head, and said with a joking expression: “Oh, it turns out they are waiting for you here.”
“Sasori of the Red Sand!?”
