Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-127

Kuroto didn’t bother answering, he just raised his arm to again cut Shinichi in half with the Golden Sword, as he wants to test the limits of Shinichi’s Mangekyou ability.

But just as he was about to slash, Shinichi figure staggered and then fell on the ground and lost consciousness.

Kuroto’s expression shrank and he immediately checked Shinichi’s state with his Tenseigan.

Kuroto was able to notice that Shinichi’s chakra level severely fell from his peak state to the bare minimum necessary for survival.

“His Guardian state has disappeared?” – muttered Kuroto as he slowly landed and the ground after deactivating the Tenseigan Chakra mode.

Since Shinichi was now unconscious, so after a moment of thinking, Kuroto created a Shadow Clone and immediately left the battle-field while carrying unconscious Shinichi.

After a while, since Kuroto’s main body left, Shisui who has activated his Susanoo, arrived here first.

Looking at the plain that used to be a dense forest before, Shisui was obviously shocked but at the same time not so much since he has already seen a much shocking scene, and soon his eyes fell upon Kuroto’s Shadow Clone who was standing idly in the middle of the battlefield, and he dashed forward.

Rushing towards Kuroto, Shisui asked hurriedly, “Kuroto-San, where is Shinichi?”

The Shadow Clone just shook his head and answered, “He escaped!”

Learning that Shinichi wasn’t at least dead; Shisui breathed a sigh of relief and then asked again, “Where did he escape? I will chase after hi-!”

Even before Shisui could finish his words, more than a dozen figures surrounded them at the messy battlefield.

By their dress code alone; one could judge that all of them were Kumo ninjas led by Yugito Nii.

Kumo ninjas all took a breath of shock as they looked at the battlefield that was a complete wreck in front of them.

No one could imagine just how fierce the battle might have been that turned the entire forest area into what it is now.

Noticing that there was no sign of Uchiha Shinichi’s presence in this area, Yugito Nii was a little disappointed and asked tentatively from Kuroto, “Where is Uchiha Shinichi, did you kill him?”

Kuroto’s Shadow Clone indifferently looked at her and said coldly, “Why should I answer you? This is Konoha’s internal matter, and doesn’t have anything to do with Kumo!”

As soon as Kuroto’s cold voice fell, one after another the figure of Guy and Kakashi landed on the side, ready for battle against Kumo.

Now the scene turned into the four members of Team-11 standing in confrontation against Yugito Nii and the Kumo team led by her!

…

Inside a Cave far away from the Battlefield.

“Uh…” – With an intense headache, Uchiha Shinichi who has been unconscious slowly woke up with a tired expression.

After clearing his eyes, he realized that he was inside an unknown cave and was suddenly alert because this isn’t where he should have been.

In the alert state, he tried getting up only to fall back as he didn’t have enough strength to be able to do so.

At this time a voice sounded from the side, “You shouldn’t get up immediately, you haven’t recovered any Chakra, moreover, you are still quite exhausted!”

Looking in the direction from where the voice came, Shinichi saw Hyuga Kuroto, who was standing indifferently while leisurely leaning against the opposite wall with his arms over his chest.

Contrary to what Kuroto expected not only Shinichi didn’t panic as soon as he saw him but simply stated, “This means I lose again, huh? I really am pathetic. Alright, if you want to kill me, do it, because I am not going to beg for mercy if that’s what you are hoping for!”

Not caring about what Shinichi said, Kuroto questioned calmly, “Tell me the detail of your Mangekyou Sharingan ability!”

“Humph, as if I would!” – Shinichi snorted coldly and became silent.

Kuroto didn’t care about Shinichi’s attitude, just asked casually, “So, do you choose death now? Just like this, don’t you regret it?”

It seems that Shinichi was suddenly agitated by Kuroto’s words, and shouted as tears came out of his eyes, “So, what do you expect me to do? Destroy the entire Konoha Village? Kill every last one of the Konoha Shinobi? And then finally die in some battle?”

Curling his lips, Kuroto said with a smirk, “You should know that the Root ninja who killed Uchiha Kurumi was being manipulated, right?”

“I… I know… but does that change anything? He is still the one who killed Kurumi, how can I let him stay alive? Everyone involved with Kurumi’s death must die!” – Shouted Shinichi with a hoarse voice.

“So, you should kill me now, because if you don’t, then sooner or later I am going to come after Konoha!”

Ignoring Shinichi’s tears, Kuroto asked indifferently, “Aren’t you curious about who is the person pulling all the strings behind the scenes is?”

With a deep sigh, Shinichi’s gaze hardened, and he said with a firm voice, “I know who it is, and after destroying Konoha, I will go after him!”

This time Kuroto was surprised by Shinichi’s words, initially, he thought that Shinichi might not know who the person behind the scenes is, but unexpectedly, Shinichi is aware of this and even has that masked man as his goal for revenge.

‘Now this was interesting!’ – thought Kuroto with a smirk at this info, in fact, now Kuroto should even be thankful to Obito for giving him a possible chess piece, that has his hatred directed towards Obito.

All Kuroto has to do now is to induce Shinichi to join him, and then things would start.

Looking at Kuroto’s smirk, Shinichi shouted, “If you don’t kill me now, I will make sure to kill all of you sooner or later, so stop asking such nonsense questions and just do it already, dying in your hands would at least not be so bad!”

“Kill, kill, kill! Is that all you can think of?” – with a deliberate snort, Kuroto continued, “Isn’t it just a girl? What’s such a big deal about it!? Instead of thinking of dying, shouldn’t you look for methods to bring her back to you!”

Shinichi was angered at Kuroto’s words and shouted, “Don’t mock her death, I have already searched everything I could, there is no such method even in the secret scrolls of the Uchiha clan! If you can return Kurumi to me, I will give you anything!”

While holding his chin in a thinking posture, Kuroto asked with interest, “Hooh… Supposedly I do bring her back to life… what can you give me?”

“I… uh…” – Shinichi was left speechless when he thought of his identity as a missing-nin, and after a little consideration, he finally said, “As long as you bring Kurumi back to me, I will give you my Mangekyou Sharingan!”

Kuroto was a little surprised by this statement, “Are you willing to give away your Mangekyou Sharingan for her?”

Shinichi was obviously annoyed by this question and argued in a frustrated tone, “Are you serious? Compare to her, what is the worth of just a Mangekyou Sharingan? If she can come back to life, I am willing to give away anything!”

After pondering a little, Kuroto finally said, “In fact, it is not impossible to resurrect Uchiha Kurumi, but why should I bring her back? Why should I help you? If it’s just your Mangekyou Sharingan, I can have it after I kill you, not like you can either run away or defeat me in your current state, can you?”

Kuroto said all this, but Shinichi ignored most of the part as he too knew that Hyuga Kuroto could have done that if he wanted, but focused on the more important words, “Can you… can you… r-really bring Kurumi back to life!?”

Kuroto nodded, “There is indeed a perfect method to resurrect a person, but it is costly, and again the question arises, just why should I use that power to bring her back to life?”

Kuroto is obviously not sure whether the Tenseigan has the ability to bring the dead back to life as he still hasn’t explored the Tenseigan Dojutsu enough to understand this, but he does know that the Rinnegan is capable of such a feat, as Rinnagan can perfectly resurrect a person, after all, Nagato was able to resurrect so many of Konoha Shinobi!

Shinichi immediately became excited listening to Kuroto’s statement, and even though he shouldn’t be able to move based on the Chakra depletion, he still got up and kneeled before Kuroto with his forehead on the ground and stated, “Whatever you want, I promise you anything, my Mangekyou Sharingan, whether it is to kill anyone, even my life, I will give you everything. As long as you bring back Kurumi to me, I will do everything for you, I promise, please!”

After pondering a little, Kuroto who has already made up his mind with what he wants, stated clearly, “What I want is your loyalty, and your service, after fifteen years of servitude, I will resurrect Uchiha Kurumi-…!”

Even before Kuroto can complete his sentence, Shinichi immediately promised without thinking, “Alright, I promise you!”

Even Kuroto was a little dazed at just how fast Shinichi agreed and said, “Don’t agree so quickly, first listen to what I want you to do in these fifteen years, your first assignment is to join the organization that murderer of Kurumi is part of, as my spy!”

Akatsuki’s control over its core members is actually very limited as all of them are more or less Kage class people, Orochimaru was able to successfully leave the organization, so having Shinichi as an undercover in the Akatsuki is not impossible.

Shinichi’s identity as a missing-nin helps a lot in this matter, especially the fact that this was all planned by Obito, so in this regard, Obito wouldn’t be suspicious of Shinichi!

And that’s what Kuroto wants…
