Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-27

Looking carefully at the young Uchiha, who was not very tall standing in front of him, Kuroto’s thoughts suddenly dispersed.

Uchiha Shisui!

A young boy who played a much crucial role in directing Itachi’s life, an indirect cause of Uchiha’s genocide, a young man who gave his entire loyalty and heart to the village but was relentlessly disappointed, another one of those individuals betrayed and suffered at the hands of Shimura Danzo.

After losing his Mangekyo Sharingan to Shimura Danzo, to avoid further escalating the conflict between the Uchiha Clan and the Konoha Village, he resolutely committed suicide silently.

Perhaps the only Uchiha who was a more genius than Itachi; ended his short life in a really tragic way.

Thinking about Shisui’s future, Kuroto couldn’t help but sigh heavily.

Shisui’s sad end isn’t inseparable from his naivety. He shouldn’t have exposed his Mangekyo Sharingan; let alone disclose his dojutsu technique; the ‘Katoamatsukami’ to the elder council of the village.

Even if it is Kuroto in Sandaime-sama’s position, and if the Uchiha’s are planning a coup d’etat, then the appearance of a strong ninja with such an influencing Jutsu at hand will definitely make him feel uncomfortable.

This is why, even if Shisui showed complete loyalty to Konoha, he still couldn’t gain the trust of the Elder council.

‘It’s really sad!’ Kuroto sighed.

Condensing his divergent thoughts, Kuroto smiled, “I have heard a lot of legends about the Sharingan. I hope to be able to battle you to get the chance of experiencing the power of the Sharingan personally.”

Shisui also smiled, “Compared with Senpai’s Byuakugan of the Hyuga clan, there is not much advantage that comes with the Sharingan, but I still look forward to getting the chance of having a battle with you.”

[Translator’s note: ‘Total BULLSHIT! Sharingan doesn’t come with advantages? If that’s the case then it might as well be better to say that the Rinnegan only provides a beautiful color to the eyes!!!! There’s a limit to being a humble individual.]

After a few more polite words, Shisui turned and left.

Shisui knows it very well that the suspicion of causing the Kyuubi’s Rebellion falls upon the Uchiha Clan, so he kept a certain distance from the other ninjas in the village to protect himself and the other side.

Looking at Shisui’s back that is gradually moving away, Kuroto couldn’t help but sigh again.

In Kuroto’s opinion, Uchiha’s idea of Coup d’état was ridiculous, as there were only three clansmen with enough strength to have some chance of making out any difference, but the more troublesome thought was that all three of them were either not sure or had opposite thoughts.

Of those three, Shisui and Itachi didn’t agree with the idea of a Coup. Not to mention the patriarch Uchiha Fugaku himself didn’t want to choose that course. It was only because the rest of the Uchiha clan was angered at the unfairness they were facing did he agree to the plan. His will for the Coup was still not very strong and it collapsed completely after his son’s rebellion.

Uchiha Fugaku gave up all the resistance and fulfilled to play a deep role in Itachi’s path as a shinobi with his own life and his last words.

And it is also really hard to say whether the Uchiha would’ve successfully won the Coup d’état even if Fugaku, Shisui, and Itachi all three supported the idea.

And if the Coup really happened with three united, although not be able to take over Konoha, they could have still destroyed it entirely. Shisui himself could have wiped out the entire resistance from the Elder council of Konoha with Katoamatsukami.

Just as Kuroto sighed at the fate that the Uchiha’s went through, Guy approached him and whispered in a low voice, “Hey, although this kid Shisui is very famous, he seems to be quite approachable among the Uchiha!”

Genma and Gekko who were standing on the side coldly said, “It depends on who he is talking to. Kuroto is from the Hyuga Clan, so obviously, the other party will be polite, but if it is changed to you or someone else, he may not even pay attention!”

Asuma also leaned over and said with a serious face, “This guy is not easy from what I’ve heard about him, if you encounter him during the assessment, be extra careful.”

Guy looked curious: “Is he that good?”

“I heard that he has a record of successfully killing three Jonin of the Mist Village. He is a recognized genius of the Uchiha Clan!” after a pause, Asma continued, “I heard my old say that his strength is already enough to be promoted as a Jonin, this time participating in the Tokubetsu Jonin selection is actually just for appearance’s sake.”

Everyone was surprised, “What?”

Looking at the surprised people, Asuma just shrugged: “What’s weird about it? Take a good look around you, he is the only Uchiha ninja here, which already explains it all.”

With that said, everyone immediately looked around.

And it was true that in the crowd present here, the ninja wearing Uchiha’s Crest was only Uchiha Shisui.

Upon realizing the meaning of what this implied everyone’s face sank.

Asuma obviously didn’t speak wrong, this means that in the promotion assessment one spot has already been reserved for Uchiha Shisui, of course, there’s nothing wrong with it, given Shisui’s strength, it is obviously a breeze for him to pass the selection naturally and such a reason also limits the Uchiha Clan to send more ninjas of their clan as it would cause useless competition for the same spot, as the onlyone spot is reserved for the Uchiha.

However, that’s not the only thing Kuroto noticed, upon looking around he realized that no other Hyuga clansmen were participating in this assessment apart from him, and he thought silently, “Is there any agreement between the Hyuga Clan and the village, and a spot was also reserved for me?’

Seeing the change if Kuroto’s expression, Asuma winked from the side and patted his shoulder, “You realized it didn’t you? The Hyuga Clan must have also reserved a spot for you.”

Kuroto folded his arms and snorted unhappily, “What a superfluous action!”

If Kuroto says he is disgusted over the thought of going through the back door or something, then it would him being hypocritical because Kuroto doesn’t believe in fairness and virtue, it’s always survival of the fittest and strongest, and having a noble status comes with its own set of benefits, therefore, it is not a problem for him, but in front of this group of classmates, he must show disdain for exploiting this kind of privilege or unfairness.

“Yeah, with Kuroto’s strength, passing through this assessment shouldn’t be a problem.” As Kuroto’s teammate, Guy supported Kuroto’s words, although he couldn’t have known Kuroto’s inner thoughts.

Everyone has also heard rumors of Kuroto’s strength and knows that his strength has indeed grown very fast, so they nodded in agreement, and the fact that the children of the noble clans have some privileges, everyone takes it for granted, so although a little surprised, no one fretted over it.

At this time, the Sandaime-sama finally made his appearance at the assessment grounds.

Those taking part in this assessment are all experienced ninjas, so Sandaime-sama were not wordy and directly announced the rules of the assessment.

This time the focus of assessment will be combat strength. As long as the overall combat strength of the candidate meets the sufficient standards, or if they specialize in a certain aspect that is considered difficult to be matched by others, then they will be qualified to pass the assessment.

These rules make it much easier for the ninjas with Kekkai Genkai or those with mastery of some secret technique to have a serious advantage over the ninjas of commoner origin to pass the assessment.

The opponent in the assessment will be selected from a random lottery.

In the first round of assessment, Kuroto’s opponent is Yuhi Kurenai.

On the 9^th combat range.

Kuroto with one hand on his said calmly, “Kurenai-chan, it seems your luck is not very good.”

Kurenai’s face was a little gloomy, she was trying to keep a calm façade, didn’t reply to Kuroto’s provocation, just staring intently at Kuroto, seems to be looking for a flaw to exploit to her advantage.

As a ninja specializing in the use of Genjutsu, it is really not easy to battle against ninjas specializing in taijutsu more against someone with a Kekkai Genkai like the Byakugan much less the Tensigan.

It is already a known fact that dojutsu type Kekkai Genkai, whether it is the Byakugan or the Sharingan, there is a certain degree of natural resistance to being affected by Genjutsu, although not 100% but the effect will be greatly reduced.

This is also a reason why Kuroto is very curious about how the Tensigan would react if influenced by a Genjutsu, to find out, he didn’t take the initiative to attack he generally does but waited patiently for Kurenai to make her move.

Kuroto’s unwavering posture gave Kurenai a great sense of oppression, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Under the pressure of silent confrontation, Kurenai finally couldn’t bear it after all………….

“Magen: Jubaku Satsu” {Demon Illusion: Tree Binding Death}

As soon as Kurenai made her move, she went with her best genjutsu technique, which is also one of the secret genjutsu techniques passed down to her from her father.

As soon as, Kurenai cast the genjutsu, Kuroto suddenly fell into a trance, but then instantly returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.

Kurenai was simply shocked, “What…? How is that even possible!!???”
