Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

It took two days of continuous rest for Kuroto to fully recover from the after-effects, from this alone the difficulty of the Molding process can be judged.

Now that the core of the artificial tailed beast is ready, the next thing Kuroto has to worry about is how to sneak out of the village quietly.

If the problem was to only sneak out of the village, then it wouldn’t be such a big deal for Kuroto who stayed in the Anbu for a while, but the crux of the matter is that he will not be returning in just two or three days. After all, the distance between Konoha and Roran is thousands of miles so the journey alone would take a lot of time, therefore Kuroto has to leave behind a Shadow Clone at home to deal with any issues that may arise in his absence.

Now, this is where the main problem starts, half of his chakra is already being used to keep the Kazekage puppet activated all time and if he divides the remaining half to leave a Shadow Clone behind, then Kuroto isn’t even sure whether he will have enough Chakra left to successfully break the seal applied by Yondaime-Sama on the Dragon Vein.

So, after thinking a little, Kuroto invited Shisui to his home.

Shisui asked curiously, “Kuroto-San, what did you call me here for?”

“There is indeed something I need your help with, but before that, I have to ask another thing,” Kuroto said after a little thinking.

“What’s up?” – asked Shisui.

“Do you remember how I mentioned that during the Kyuubi’s rebellion it was being controlled by Sharingan?” after a short pause, Kuroto thought of the best words he could use, and then asked, “Have you noticed any strange person appearing around the Uchiha Clan grounds? Or anything strange at all?”

After a little thinking, Shisui shook his head negatively.

Kuroto again asked, “No abnormalities?”

Shisui said with a helpless smile, “Except for the Anbu ninja and Root ninja who are monitoring the Uchiha Clan, there wasn’t any other strange individual around.”

Uchiha Clan was originally at the center of the village but after the Kyuubi’s rebellion, they have been moved to the edge of Konoha, which has resulted in their alienation, coupled with their reputation ordinary villagers dare not go to the Uchiha Clan grounds.

While Shisui was pondering, he suddenly thought of something that was kind of weird.

Kuroto didn’t miss that and asked, “So, what did you remember?”

Although a little uncertain, Shisui still said, “There was indeed something strange if you consider it.”

“What?” – Kuroto asked inquisitively.

“You should remember Shinichi, right?” after pausing a little, “He has been acting a little weird for some time, and the thing is that he has been going somewhere to train every day.”

“What’s strange about that?” – Kuroto asked while holding his chin thoughtfully.

Kuroto doesn’t have a very deep impression of Uchiha Shinichi, since he defeated the guy by tricking him, the process was so fast that it didn’t leave any deep impression on him.

So, Kuroto isn’t quite sure how that’s strange.

At this moment Shisui said with a worried look, “The strange thing is that the Root ninja who has been monitoring him disappeared for no reason. This has also escalated a headache for Patriarch with Danzo-Sama, if not for Hokage-Sama coming forward to act as a mediator, this could have resulted in a serious conflict.”

“No wonder Danzo didn’t send anyone to bother me these days…” – Kuroto muttered silently.

Kuroto felt quite strange in the past few days, as to why didn’t Danzo sent anyone to continue monitoring him, now listening to Shisui’s words, it seems Root ninjas had some trouble with the Uchiha keeping them occupied.

But one thing to notice is that Danzo didn’t take any actions against Uchiha Shinichi, it could only mean that the disappearance of the Root ninja has nothing to do with Shinichi or that there is no evidence that it was Shinichi’s handiwork.

Of course, Kuroto can’t analyze the whole matter whether it was really Shinichi or not, but he has noted this matter to heart as it would require some investigation.

After learning the current situation of the Uchiha Clan, Kuroto turned the topic over to why he has called Shisui here today, “Shisui, I have a request, I hope you can help me with it.”

Shisui hurriedly nodded, “Kuroto-San, you are being too polite, don’t hesitate to tell me, and I’ll try my best to help you!”

With a serious face, Kuroto stated, “I need to sneak out of the village to do something, and I don’t want anybody to know of my absence, I hope you can help me with this by creating a Shadow Clone that can act as my cover until I return.”

The reason why he asked Shisui is that with the Mangekyou, Shisui could apply an illusion over the Shadow Clone that would be difficult to be seen through even by the likes of Sandaime-Sama, unless of course, the clone itself gives away the cover.

So, Shisui is the best person to cover for him.

“Kuroto-San, what do you want to do?” – Shisui asked a little surprised and sorta panicked.

‘Nothing Kuroto-San does secretly has anything good!’ this was Shisui’s thought.

Kuroto immediately waved his hand to calm down the guy, “Don’t worry too much, my objective this time has nothing to do with the affairs of the village, it’s just a personal matter.”

Kuroto also knows about Shisui’s character, so he explained it clearly.

The kid is so loyal to Konoha that he would rather commit suicide than choose the option of defection, even if betrayed by the highest authorities of the village, so if Kuroto didn’t explain it clearly, Shisui might not help him even if they have a rather good interpersonal friendship.

After hesitating a little, Shisui finally nodded in agreement, “If that’s so, then all right!”

Kuroto smiled, “I am afraid you’ll have to work hard this time because I won’t be able to come back in a short while.”

As soon as he heard this, Shisui asked cautiously, “Kuroto-San, h-how many days will it take for you to come back to the village?”

After thinking a little, Kuroto said, “If everything goes well, then I should be able to return in about 15 days, but I can’t be sure if there is some accident.”

“What!?? 15 days!” – Shisui stood up in shock.

Maintaining a Shadow Clone and an illusion over it for half a month is not a joke, even for Shisui!

What’s more, there are chances that Hokage-Sama might summon them anytime and Shisui really has no guts to deceive Hokage-Sama.

Kuroto patted Shisui’s shoulder making him sit again, and said with a wicked smile, “You just agreed to help me a few seconds ago, now you can’t go back on your words Shisui.”

“B-but, Kuroto-San I- …”

Kuroto hurriedly interrupted Shisui’s complaint, “Don’t worry, you continue helping me, and I will most definitely resolve the issue between the Uchiha and the Village, we are friends, aren’t we? And FRIENDS are supposed to help each other, aren’t they?”

Although, Shisui was still very hesitant, listening to Kuroto’s sweet-talk and emotional black-mailing; he finally nodded after pondering over it, “Okay, Kuroto-San, I’ll try my best, but 20 days is the most I will be able to keep cover, if it goes any longer, I can’t guarantee anything!”

Kuroto nodded, “20 days should be good enough!”

Although Kuroto has used the Kazekage puppet to keep track of Roran survivors, he can still fly using the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, and his flying speed will be extremely faster in the Tenseigan Chakra Mode compared to the flying speed of the Kazekage puppet.

So, after the two of them discussed some details that Shisui has to be especially careful about, Shisui left an almost identical Shadow Clone at Kuroto’s house.

With a cover arranged, Kuroto didn’t delay any longer and directly sneaked out of the village.

He had already selected the route he has to follow, so as soon as he sneaked out of the village, Kuroto immediately entered the Tenseigan Chakra Mode and flew in the direction of the Land of the Wind.

Kuroto also made sure to keep his flying height at an appropriate distance from the ground to avoid being accidentally discovered.

With the cyan light of Tenseigan Chakra Mode, the flashing figure appeared like firelight in the night as it rushed towards the Land of Wind.
