Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-236

Sasuke pouted and looked a little upset after hearing Shisui’s words.

Although Sasuke was abused by Yama, he didn’t suffer much damage aside from some traumatic experience. And that trauma was also relieved because of the psychological care Itachi provided Sasuke after that experience, after all, Uchiha Itachi wouldn’t want his brother to suffer, right?

And unlike the cold and indifferent Uchiha Sasuke who fell into loneliness and hatred after the annihilation of the Uchiha Clan at the hands of Itachi, he is still a cheerful and sweet kid who seeks his brother’s and father’s attention and acknowledgment more than anything.

So Shisui’s words made him a bit sad and annoyed.

Itachi noticed Sasuke’s change and flicked his forehead, “Shisui-san is just teasing you Sasuke.”

Sasuke blushed and after nodding at his brothers’ words, Sasuke turned around as his gaze turned towards the Shuriken Target’s spread all over the training field, and his expression turned to an eager one, it seemed as if he was itching to try.

Understanding Sasuke’s eagerness, Shisui handed him a Shuriken and said, “Wanna give it a try? When Itachi was around your age he was already very good at it, he was even able to hit multiple targets easily!”

Sasuke’s eyes gleamed with excitement, taking the shuriken from Shisui’s hand, Sasuke turned his head and looked at his brother, “Nii-san, is that true? Were you really able to hit the bull’s eye of multiple targets when you were of my age?”

Itachi smiled awkwardly and finally nodded in acquiescence.

In fact, when Itachi was four years old, he had even been to the battlefield; killed enemy ninjas, and had to burn the sight of mountains of dead bodies to understand what WAR truly is! Something that is much traumatizing from what Sasuke went through a few months ago.

“If nii-san can do it, then I can do it too!” – After saying that, Sasuke who was full of confidence aimed at the target directly in front of him and threw the shuriken with all his strength!

Whiiish…

With the sound of cutting through the air, the shuriken thrown by Sasuke flew out of Shisui’s courtyard and disappeared.

Aho… Aho… Aho…

An awkward silence… And the cawing of Aho Crow…

Immediately afterward, a shout came from outside the courtyard, “Who is throwing shuriken around!”

Sasuke immediately shrank, his face full of frustration and disappointment.

Even Shisui didn’t know what to say, in the past two years, he has been so busy with the missions of Team-11 and the matters between the clan and the village that he had no time to pay attention to Sasuke, only now did he realize that compared to Itachi whose talent is simply otherworldly, Sasuke’s talent may not be same.

While three remained in silence, a crow flew down from the sky and sat down on his shoulder.

Shisui received the secret message scroll from the crow and unfolded the scroll without minding Itachi and Sasuke’s presence.

As soon as Shisui saw the content of the scroll he frowned slightly; the reason was that the scroll only recorded a time and the name of a location.

Seeing Shisui’s expression, Itachi asked, “What’s wrong Shisui-san?”

Asked by Itachi, Shisui just shook his head in response without giving any detail and burned the scroll immediately.

Shisui may have confessed to Itachi that he is Homusubi, but he still doesn’t want Itachi to get involved in the matters of Amatsukami, for the time being at least.

…

Somewhere in the hinterland of the Land of Fire.

Uchiha Hiiragi with whom Kuroto once had a duel and Uchiha Yuto a Tokubetsu Jonin were patrolling the territory.

This route is a shortcut connecting the Land of Fire with the Land of Hot Water and is often used by bounty hunters, missing-nin, and other mercenary ninjas because of its remoteness and complex terrain.

Uchiha Yuto said, “Did you hear the news that a mountain not far from the village suddenly collapsed last night?”

Uchiha Hiiragi nodded, “Hmm, there are even speculations that someone of Amatsukami was fighting there, and the result was an explosion that left a great amount of damage to the nearby territory!”

Yuto sighed with frustration, “Just what in the hell is this Amatsukami? Why is there no information about this organization?”

Hiiragi glanced at Yuto and snorted, “Hmm? Are you scared?”

Yuto chuckled condescendingly, “Aren’t you scared at all? The village has been searching for their traces for the past two months and yet there is no success! Ryota-sama and Hideki-sama were captured so easily by them, Shisui was defeated by them… even Sandaime couldn’t…”

Yuto suddenly stopped and his gaze narrowed at something…

Hiiragi turned towards him and asked, “What happened?”

Yuto raised his hand and pointed into the distance with his finger trembling, “You… do you also see those two… they… they… they wouldn’t happen to members of Amatsukami, right?”

Hiiragi followed the direction of Yuto’s gaze and his expression shrank immediately.

The sight he saw was not at all horrifying or anything, just two people wearing that unique type of Black-Cloak with a golden threading pattern all over it, a unique symbol around the chest part of the cloak, and finally a mask over their face.

The symbol on one of their chests was that of the Fire Chakra Nature while the other one had the symbol of Wind Chakra Nature.

Similarly, the masks they wore were also different, one wore a Fire patterned mask while the other one had a wind patterned mask.

“You are right, they… they have to be members of Amatsukami!” – Hiiragi was surprised and thought silently, ‘Damn it! They have come after us this time, what… what should we do now?’

The achievements of Amatsukami can really make anyone panic when they suddenly encounter members of that fearsome organization.

Successfully infiltrating Konoha assassinating the leader of Kumogakure’s peace delegation and finally managing to escape with his body, even under the combined siege of Sandaime Hokage, a large number of Anbu, and Konoha Military Police Force.

Successfully defeating Uchiha Shisui, as well as kidnapping Uchiha Hideki and Uchiha Ryota one after another without leaving any trail behind makes everyone subconsciously have a fear of Amatsukami.

And now that Hiiragi and Yuto have suddenly noticed two members of Amatsukami coming from the opposite end; they are clearly frozen and can’t think of anything.

Based on the intelligence, the two members who are coming from the opposite end are already known, the one wearing the fire patterned mask is Homusubi, the person said to have the Mangekyou Sharingan.

While not much is known about the second person walking on the side, but he did participate in ambushing two members of Anbu Team-11 and based on the intelligence those two have given, he seems to be stronger than Suijin and Homusubi!

Yuto took a deep breath and spoke with a stammering voice, “What… what should we do… what should we do now!”

Immediately Hiiragi also took a deep breath and shouted, “Fire the signal flare!”

“What…!?” – Yuto was taken aback, and immediately spoke, “Then what about us? We will definitely have the same fate as Ryota-sama and Hideki-sama if… if we stay here…! Do you want us to just die? How about… why-why don’t we run away now!?”

Hiiragi took out the signal flare from the ninja bag on his waist and spoke with a bitter tone, “Don’t be stupid! Do you seriously think that we can escape now, at least this way… it will be known!” – Saying that Hiiragi immediately fired the signal Flare.

Bang… whiiiiiistleeeee… BOOM…

As soon as the signal flare was fired successfully, Hiiragi breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it is still daytime, the signal flare will be easily noticed, therefore, Hiiragi was not worried that others wouldn’t be able to spot the signal flare.

The two members of Amatsukami noticed that Hiiragi was firing the signal flare, but they did not take any action to interrupt him and were calmly walking towards them.

Seeing that the two members of Amatsukami did not have any intentions of retreating, both Hiiragi and Yuto looked at each other and gulped in nervousness, following which they both nodded to each other with a hardened gaze, ‘If our death is unavoidable then it is better to die fighting rather than running!’ – were the silent words that their gaze said to each other.

Both of them immediately took out their weapons and got ready for the fight, Hiiragi had his favorite and trusty sword, while the other one had a Kunai in both his hands.

As the two members of Amatsukami came closer and closer, Hiiragi let out a battle cry, “Although the odds are not in our favor, as Uchiha, we must not cower or run away in the face of the enemy of the clan and village!”

Yuto also gritted his teeth and finally nodded, “… YES! Fight to the death!”

At the moment Hiiragi and Yuto finished, the two members of Amatsukami were just seven steps away from them.

Step…

Traces of sweat flowed down the temples of both the Uchiha…

Step…

Gaze hardened and locked at the enemy…

Step…

Chakra Started to flow down to muscles amplifying strength…

Step…

Muscles started expanding, ready to take action any moment…

Step…

Weapons were drawn backward to give them momentum…

Step…

Lungs Expanded to fill in the necessary air…

Step…

Both Hiiragi and Yuto ready for the battle…

Step…

Step…

Step…

Step… Step… Step… Step…

Both Hiiragi and Yuto were ready to die, but the two members of Amatsukami did not give the two Uchiha even a single glance from beginning to end and passed by them as if both Hiiragi and Yuto were just ordinary rabbits in the forest.

A strange silence…

“Uh……” – Uchiha Yuto let out an awkward groan at what just happened.

Hiiragi also had an awkward expression but indescribable humiliation suddenly flooded his mind.

“Damn it! You dare ignore us!” – With a roar, Hiiragi turned around and rushed towards the two members of Amatsukami.

At this time, Homusubi turned his head to look back causing Hiiragi to suddenly stop his attack, no word was spoken between them and Hiiragi suddenly dropped his sword.

The other member of Amatsukami did not even turn around from beginning to end as if he did not care about what Hiiragi intended to do.

With Hiiragi frozen midway, Homusubi retracted his head and walked away.

As the two members of Amatsukami walked away, Uchiha Yuto carefully came next to Hiiragi and spoke while shaking him, “Hiiragi-san… Hiiragi-san, what’s wrong with you? Are you alright?”

Urged by Yuto, Hiiragi finally took a breath and immediately collapsed to the ground, the pressure and bloodlust a few moments before were too much for him to bear, his expression was in a daze and he murmured, “Mangekyou Sharingan! That… that person really has Mangekyou Sharingan, moreover, the pressure he released was too terrible!”
