Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-118

‘There are definitely no signs of any injury on his body…’

‘Neither is there any weirdness in his Chakra Flow, and he also has a large volume of Chakra left…”

‘Then why? What made him leave the battlefield so suddenly…?’

Watching Uchiha Shinichi leave, Kakashi didn’t rush to pursue him but tried to analyze the reason for Shinichi’s retreat.

Analyzing and Evaluating the opponent’s ability and strength are some of the qualities that every good shinobi must-have.

Being White Fang’s son, Yellow Flash’s disciple, the baptism he received in the third shinobi great war, coupled with the teachings of the Anbu department, and finally his personal experience as a shinobi, that adding with his incredible talent makes Kakashi one of the best battlefields analyzer.

Therefore, the reason why he didn’t chase after Shinichi is not that he is afraid of death.

He didn’t chase after Shinichi, because Kakashi understood that even with his Chidori he wouldn’t be able to break through the defense of the dark green chakra phantom.

Therefore, it is better to stay alive and pass on the information about Shinichi’s ability to the village rather than dying a meaningless death.

Once accurate information is passed back, then using that information as a basis a more targeted team can be organized to increase the success rate of hunting Shinichi.

Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh…

While Kakashi was considering these things, few figures flickered at his sides one-by-one.

The leader of this group was none other than the leader of Root Unit, Shimura Danzo.

Accompanying him were the patriarchs of the Ino-Shika-Cho clans, as well many other elites’ ninjas including Hyuga Hizashi as well as other elite chunin and Jonin.

Scanning the entire battlefield coldly, Danzo’s already gloomy expression only became gloomier.

At this time; the entire battlefield was already in a mess with burning forest on one side, muddy ground on the other, the trees on the left were embedded, broken, or pierced with Kunai, Shuriken, and Senbon, while the right side was a straight-up empty because of the Susanoo’s attacks.

All the Anbu ninjas were either dead or severely injured, and only one non-Uchiha Anbu with a Sharingan seemed to be okay.

The situation here clearly dictated the tale of a tragic failure of the hunting operation organized by Sandaime.

Kakashi who was wearing his Dog Anbu Mask respectfully greeted Danzo and spoke with a guilty expression, “Please forgive us Danzo-Sama, we weren’t able to suppress Uchiha Shinichi”

Danzo stared at Dog-Masked Anbu with a cold expression and muttered in a gloomy voice, “Which way did he go?”

Dog pointed in the direction Shinichi escaped and continued, “Danzo-Sama, it wouldn’t be a good idea without targeted planning, Uchiha Shinichi’s Mangekyou ability is quite strange, I think-…”

However, before Dog could finish speaking, Shimura Danzo ignored him and disappeared in the direction Shinichi left.

Being ignored by him, Kakashi could only sigh helplessly.

To pursue Uchiha Shinichi, Sandaime dispatched three Anbu squads.

Unfortunately, the four members of the first Anbu squad died without putting much of a resistance, then the two members of the two squads that Kakashi led died because of underestimating the enemy while the other five are injured critically leaving only him who was still fine.

But even after the sacrifice of so many trusted ninjas of the Anbu unit, nothing was achieved. Not only did they fail to subdue and bring Shinichi back to the village for the trial or kill him but they couldn’t even obtain all the information about Shinichi’s Mangekyou Sharingan and his other abilities.

Their deaths were more or less meaningless.

Soon the news of the failed hunt was passed back to the village.

Sandaime who was outside the Uchiha Compound along with several Anbu and Konoha ninja had an unconsciously serious expression upon learning this news.

Frankly speaking, the degree of growth of Uchiha Shinichi’s strength is somewhat beyond his expectations.

And Shinichi’s defection is like a sudden pebble, that stirred up the calm lake, i.e., Konoha is now again engulfed into the ripples of chaos.

The unstable balance between the Hokage Faction and the Uchiha Clan is again disturbed.

Not to mention the weakness of Konoha was again revealed, an Uchiha brat who just awakened the power of the Mangekyou can already mess around the village and walk away indifferently, this just goes to show how rotten the tree planted by Shodaime has become.

Sandaime who was playing with the tobacco pipe glanced towards Uchiha Fugaku’s expression from the corner of his eyes.

Sandaime was indeed worried that Anbu’s failure to hunt down Uchiha Shinichi might even make the Uchiha Clan more hardened for the Coup.

And Sandaime already knows that aside from Shinichi, Shisui has also awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

After shifting his gaze from Fugaku to Shisui, Sandaime observed the young genius of the Uchiha clan with a calculating gaze and finally reached a conclusion, ‘We must draw Shisui to our side, otherwise, Konoha might even become a history!’

With that thought in his mind, Sandaime left the Uchiha compound. Since the Uchiha Clan didn’t participate in Shinichi’s rebellion, so after calming down the agitated Uchiha Clan and reassuring Fugaku a little; Sandaime left and the other Konoha ninjas that surrounded the Uchiha Clan parameter dispersed under his order.

And around the same time, Kuroto also returned to Yui’s house after robbing Danzo!

…

Next Day.

As soon as the first ray of the morning light fell on his courtyard, an Anbu ninja arrived at his house and informed Kuroto, “Special Jonin Hyuga Kuroto, the temporary suspension of Team-11 is lifted, report to Hokage-Sama’s summon immediately!”

Kuroto who was already somewhat prepared nodded immediately and after simply dressing up in his combat vest, he arrived at the Hokage Building.

After entering the Hokage Office, Kuroto nodded towards the other three members of Team-11 who had already arrived and were waiting for him and then stood before the desk patiently.

With Kuroto’s arrival, Sandaime nodded towards Kakashi.

Kakashi who received Sandaime’s permission immediately described the entire information and his side of the story.

After Kakashi finished speaking, Sandaime exhaled the smoke and ordered with a sharp eye, “With that said, the mission of Team-11 is to hunt down the missing-nin, Uchiha Shinichi, is that clear?”

“Yes!”

After leaving the Hokage Building, Kakashi ordered the three members of Team-11, “Time is limited, everyone will have only half an hour to prepare for the mission, we will gather at the meeting point in thirty minutes and set off for the hunting mission, as for the other information on Uchiha Shinichi’s ability, I will describe it in detail on the way!”

All three nodded and dispersed to prepare for the mission.

Back at his home, Kuroto who was preparing the ninja equipment and Military Pills thought to himself, “The cooperation between Shinichi and Obito is still not clear, if they are really working together, then I’ll have to be careful of Obito too while on this mission!”

According to the information that Kakashi told the team, Kuroto understood that Shinichi wasn’t able to find Danzo last night.

And this is precisely why Kuroto was a little confused.

Because not only can Obito freely enter and exit the village but he also has access to information because of Zetsu by his side, so if Shinichi and Obito were in a cooperating relationship, Shinichi would have definitely found Danzo just like Sasuke did!

And since this didn’t happen, so it could only mean one thing, ‘Shinichi took actions on his own and didn’t have Obito’s direct support!’

Although Kuroto is more or less sure of his guess, it is still not 100% confirmed.

But anyway, Kuroto also decided to take an extra storage tank filled with green nutrient solution.

This mission is also a chance to obtain a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan for research, as long as Shinichi’s Mangekyou ability is not too exaggerated, Kuroto is sure that he can take away that pair of Mangekyou.

After all, as long as the situation permits Kuroto wouldn’t mind collecting something that has incredible research value as well as high trade value with Orochimaru!
