Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-746

Both Obito and Zetsu are difficult enemies that can’t be killed, especially Zetsu, that thing has been roaming the shinobi world for over a millennium! Therefore, if not really necessary, Kuroto really doesn’t want to fight these two guys.

After analyzing all the possibilities and angles, and considering all the possible reasons behind Obito and Zetsu’s purpose of coming to Konoha, Kuroto said, “I think, their original intention of coming to Konoha wasn’t capturing Naruto-kun or Fu-chan.”

Jiraiya asked with a confused expression, “What makes you say that?”

Kuroto held his chin, and explained, “This is just my thinking, but I believe that the real reason both of them are in Konoha is probably Deidara… They want to capture him… They attacked Iwagakure with the very same purpose, capturing the Jinchuriki of Four Tils and Five Tails turned out to be the by-product of their actions, but their purpose was something else… I think, their intention is the same this time… They are here to capture Deidara, whom they believe to be the newest member of Amatsukami.”

“This… does make sense if we think about it.” Nodded Kakashi.

Kuroto added, “Additionally, I think both of them also wanted to know the status of their comrade that we captured not long ago.”

Tsunade said, “But he is already dead.”

Kuroto nodded, “Yes, and I think they have learned of this information.” And added, “Apart from failing to save their comrade, they also failed to capture Deidara… and were probably about to leave Konoha. However, just before that, they must have heard the details of the Real Life Assessment being held in Konoha, and planned to take advantage of this opportunity to secretly capture the Jinchuriki of Konoha, that is Naruto.”

Jiraiya agreed with Kuroto’s analysis, “Yes, that’s what I thought too… It’s quite likely that they are targeting Uzumaki Naruto!”

Shizune immediately said, “We should immediately suspend the Assessment and focus on protecting Uzumaki Naruto.”

“Protecting Naruto is fine, however, suspending the Assessment immediately after we noticed their presence and assumed their purpose wouldn’t be a very good decision in my opinion. It would send the message that we are really afraid of their attack, this can also be interpreted as we no longer have the support of Amatsukami.” Suggested Kuroto.

Kakashi nodded, “Hmm… yes, we can’t make any wrong move in haste… the only reason they sneaked inside, instead of openly attacking Konoha is probably because they fear that Amatsukami will appear and intervene. Therefore, we have to pose a strong front in front of Akatsuki in order to give a message that we aren’t afraid, otherwise, they might figure out the details about what Sandaime-sama told us about… and if that were to happen, it would be a disaster. Konoha would probably become the next Iwagakure.”

“I didn’t think about it in this way…” muttered Shizune apologetically.

Tsunade cut her off, and asked Kuroto, “Then what do you suggest we do, we can’t just turn a blind eye to them, right?”

Kuroto thought for a while, then said, “How about we test them?”

“Test them?!” mumbled Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Kakashi in confusion, and asked doubtfully, “Test those two? But how?”

Kuroto said with a smile, “Leave that up to me… I will go in front of them and test their reaction to something, it would be really interesting.”

Shisui immediately thought of something, and said, “Kuroto-san… I will come with you.”

Kuroto shook his head, “No, you stay here!”

Shisui was taken aback, and asked, “What? But why? I can be of help!”

“Yes, I know… however, you would be of more help here.” Said Kuroto, then added after a pause, “We have only guessed that only two of them are here to secretly capture Naruto… what if, that’s not the case? What if, the entire Akatsuki has appeared around Konoha and is planning to make another attack on Konoha?”

“This…” muttered Shisui in shock, he didn’t think to this extent.

“Of course, this is only a possibility, but if it’s true, then you need to be here to protect the Jinchuriki.” Said Kuroto, and added, “You and Kakashi should work together to protect the tail beasts and their Jinchuriki.”

“I understand.” Nodded Shisui, “I will do what you instruct.”

Jiraiya and Tsunade looked at each other and noticed that both of them were incredibly surprised after witnessing the scene before them.

There were two reasons behind their surprise, the first is the fact that Uchiha Shisui seems quite obedient to Hyuga Kuroto, this is quite incredible, considering Shisui is the strongest power on the side of Konoha and the five great nations. I mean, they don’t think that Uchiha Shisui would be so obedient to them!

‘How could Uchiha Shisui be so obedient to Hyuga Kuroto?’ this is the thought that popped up in their heads, but obviously, this is just a momentary thought and neither of them gave it any more attention than necessary.

Now, the second reason behind their surprise, it’s the fact that Hyuga Kuroto is willing to come face-to-face with two members of Akatsuki, what’s more, the shocking thing is that Kuroto is quite casual about this, not at all afraid!

It must be known that the terror of Akatsuki runs deep in the nerves of all Shinobis, yet Hyuga Kuroto isn’t scared to come face-to-face with them, this is really worth commending, and both of them couldn’t help but ask Kuroto, “Going out there alone to test them? Wouldn’t that be too foolish?”

Kuroto shook his head, and said in a casual tone, “Nah… I think I will be all right.”

Of course, just because Kuroto was calm about this doesn’t mean the others were okay with it as well, the one who objected first was naturally Yui, “Kuroto-kun… are you planning to die? They are Akatsuki!”

Looking at Yui objecting, Kuroto just tapped her forehead and whispered something in her ears which quietened her.

With the done, he looked back at the crowd, and said, “So, as I said earlier, I will be fine.”

Seeing that Kuroto was really determined, and no one was objecting to him going there, Jiraiya nodded, and asked, “How do you plan on testing them? You must explain this to us, otherwise, we won’t approve.”

Hearing Jiraiya’s words, Kuroto said while taking out a scroll from his cloak, “Well it would have been more fun if this came as a surprise, but meh… it doesn’t really matter.” then without wasting any time, he unfolded the scroll and took out something from it that looked like disguises.

After that, he weaved the hand signs and created four shadow clones. He and the four Shadow Clones wore the disguises he took out earlier and stood in front of everyone. As Kuroto finished disguising, everyone was looking at him wide-eyed.

“Those cloaks… those masks… they are of Amatsukmi members!” muttered Jiraiya, and asked, “Why do you have those?”

Kuroto shrugged, “While I was creating Akatsuki uniforms for the assessment, I also created several Amatsukami uniforms, I didn’t have an exact idea, but I planned to use these uniforms in the next assessment.”

“Makes sense.” Muttered Tsunade, and questioned, “So, you intend to pretend to be someone from Amatsukami and appear before Akatsuki members in order to figure out their intention?”

Kuroto nodded, “Yes, I want to see if Akatsuki is really afraid of Amatsukami, and how they would react when they see all the members of Amatsukami together.”

“But what would happen if Amatsukami learns of your actions?” asked Kakashi with a worried expression.

“It doesn’t matter… these are mere disguises.” – Said Kuroto in a casual tone.

What can Amatsukami do? Isn’t he the leader?
