Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-185

Holding the mask and the cloak in his hand, Shisui asked in a confused manner, “How is it going to save the Uchiha Clan?”

Kuroto said, “The tension between the Uchiha Clan and the Hokage faction has become increasing day-by-day, the dissatisfaction towards the village is growing among the Uchiha, if the village doesn’t change, the Uchiha won’t stand for it much longer, if the village changes so will the Uchiha, but if the Uchiha don’t change, neither will the village, as long as the two sides distrust each other, things will only get worse!”

“So, what do you suggest Kuroto-san?” – asked Shisui.

“Using, Kotoamatsukami can indeed solve the problem but it may not be the best option, therefore, we have to work our way with a different approach.”

“And what is that?”

“For now, we can only delay the conflict as much as we can and wait for the situation on both sides to change!” – Kuroto said.

“How to delay the conflict?” – Shisui asked while replacing his cloak with the one Kuroto gave.

Kuroto pointed at the mask and said, “Find them a common enemy!”

Looking at the mask in his hand, Shisui muttered doubtfully, “You mean the ‘Amatsukami’?”

Kuroto said, “The alias for this disguise I am wearing is ‘Suijin,’ a member of ‘Amatsukami,’ already famed in the Black-Market Circle, tell me, if the Bounty-nin named ‘Suijin’ change the body of Watanabe with the bounty on his head in the Black-Market Circle, what do you think the Konoha Council will do about it?”

Shisui replied immediately, “If you really managed to do it despite the hunt and round organized by Hokage-sama, then the village’s reputation will be deeply affected, and if that happens, Konoha would put all their effort to hunt you down!”

“Yes, the village will put all their effort, from putting a heavy bounty on Suijin’s to sending hunter-nin, just to kill the culprit responsible for the death of Watanabe!” – after a short pause, Kuroto continued with a smile, “That’s it, come on let’s completely offend the leaders of the strongest Shinobi village!”

“And then?” – asked Shisui with a frown.

Kuroto looked directly into Shisui’s eyes and said, “It’s obviously not enough to just offend the Hokage faction, therefore, next we will offend the Uchiha Clan, start by getting rid of some of the most radicals.”

“What!?” – Shisui was taken aback and looked at Kuroto with an incredulous expression, “You want me to kill the shinobi of my own clan?”

Looking at Shisui’s expression, Kuroto said coldly, “That’s why I asked, when will you grow out of your naïve nature?”

“I…” – Shisui opened his mouth but no words came to him, being unable to retort Kuroto’s words he could only lower his head.

Using force to stop the rebellion of the Uchiha Clan is taboo for Shisui, for that very reason he hasn’t yet used Kotoamatsukami because it would mean a betrayal if such a day comes, he will undoubtedly use but he would rather not want to retort to such measures.

And Kuroto’s words directly pierced the taboo in his heart, and Shisui has to face it, as no other option seems possible to curb the rebellion.

Looking at Shisui, who seems hesitant Kuroto said, “If you don’t make up your mind only annihilation awaits the Uchiha Clan!”

Shisui argued, “Hokage-sama wouldn’t do it!”

Kuroto shook his head, “You are wrong Shisui, Sandaime-sama wouldn’t want to do it.” Kuroto continued after a short pause, “But if the Uchiha Clan makes the first move, Sandaime wouldn’t be merciful, let alone the Uchiha shinobi, even the elderly, women, and children will all be killed without a second thought!”

If the Clan rebelled, no matter which shinobi village, they wouldn’t be merciful.

Even in the Rebellion of the Kaguya Clan, the authorities of Kirigakure weren’t any merciful and wiped away the entire clan only leaving one kid who was taken away by Orochimaru, before they could deal with him.

Shisui understands that with just Fugaku and the Uchiha elites, the Coup will never succeed, he doesn’t know what are Shinichi’s intentions, but he knows that he doesn’t support the idea of Coup d’état.

Moreover, even if he supports the Uchiha, Shisui knows that even the combined might of the Uchiha Clan will not be able to face Kuroto-san.

Obviously, the strength displayed by Kuroto for only a few seconds during their mission to destroy the Kumogakure warehouse in the Land of Lightning has been deeply engraved in Shisui’s mind.

Therefore, compared to the idea of the entire clan being wiped out, Shisui seemed more acceptable to clean out the most radicals.

After some hesitation, Shisui finally sighed and asked, “Then… h-how many people do you suggest be killed?”

Kuroto thought a little and said, “Kill until the entire Uchiha Clan is madly pointing their weapons at Amatsukami.” – Kuroto’s idea is straight and simple.

Slap the face of the top authorities of the village, ridicule, and anger the Uchiha Clan, therefore attracting resentment from both sides to Amatsukami.

Anyway, the so-called, ‘Amatsukami’ is just an empty shell organization that Kuroto made up, therefore it’s most suitable to attract the hatred of both parties.

Shisui held his head in distress, “But I… I can’t do it; how can I kill my own clansmen!”

“If you are worried about that, then you have to think of it in the manner that it is not Uchiha Shisui who is doing such a thing but Amatsukami’s Homusubi.” – Kuroto continued after a short pause, “If you are still reluctant to be the one killing them, then let me take care of that part”

Every Uchiha Shinobi with a fully matures Sharingan is valuable.

One will generally find the Uchiha with the fully mature Sharingan to be the extremist and radicals, after all, if one doesn’t even have the necessary strength then how can they voice out their opinion actively?

And since these radicals are harmful to both the village and the Uchiha Clan, so torturing them should not be a problem, right?

Shisui was silent after what Kuroto said, finally making up his mind, he asked, “Will this method really save the Uchiha Clan?”

Kuroto nodded without any hesitation, “That is something I can guarantee.”

After all, this method is tried and tested. Even in the original story, when the five great villages were pushed to a desperate state by the Akatsuki Organization, the five villages were left with no choice but to put their individual hatred aside and form a coalition in the name of ‘Shinobi Alliance’ to fight the threat.

Therefore, this method has been tested and can obviously be used here.

Getting a positive reply from Kuroto, Shisui grit his teeth and finally put on the ‘Homusubi’ mask.

With Shisui’s acknowledgment of his new secret identity, Kuroto smiled and patted his shoulder, “Don’t worry, I assure you that you would never regret this decision.”

“I hope so, Kuroto-san.” – said Shisui.

“One thing to keep in note, never call the other member by their original name when you are wearing this disguise, so currently you are ‘Homusubi’ of the Fire Chakra Nature or better yet, God of Fire, and I am ‘Suijin,’ of the Water Chakra Nature or better yet, God of Water also, ‘-san,’ ‘-chan,’ ‘-Kun,’ ‘-sama,’ ‘-dono,’ etc will not be used, just simple and straightforward alias, understood?” – Kuroto.

“Understood, Suijin!” – said Homusubi.

“Alright, now that, that’s clear, we will be going to the Black-market bounty exchange shop.” – said Suijin.

Homusubi nodded and the both of them disappeared from their spot.

Suijin thought of something and said, “When we start with the radicals of the Uchiha Clan, make sure to pick out pair of siblings as the priority target.”

“Why?” – Homusubi asked in confusion.

Suijin thought about it a little and didn’t reveal the real reason and said casually, “Eliminating sibling pair should have a much greater impact.”

His real purpose is obviously to torture out the siblings with fully mature Sharingan to see if the both of them awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, and if they do awaken, then obtain a pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

Since the probability of such a thing happening is too low, therefore, Suijin didn’t explain it.

But after the idea was born, Suijin felt that it was worth trying.

Throughout the story of Naruto, Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Sasuke were the only two people shown to have ever awakened the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, so the probability is extremely low.

But it’s not a bad idea to try it, after all, an Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan although not comparable to his Tenseigan and the Rinnegan, is still worth it…
