Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-816

Looking at Shinichi’s silent expression, the puppet said, “Cooperating with me is in the best interest of Akatsuki, only by working together can we defeat Amatsukami!”

The master of this puppet wasn’t aware of Uchiha Shinichi’s true purpose of coming after him, he assumed that Shinichi was acting as per the orders of the leader of the Akatsuki Organization and he was trying to figure out his identity.

Since the other person is misunderstanding his intentions then that’s all the better for him. Such a misunderstanding will affect the cooperation between the two sides, and the intelligence of Amatsukami will not be leaked to the Akatsuki.

With this in mind, Shinichi decided not to give any reply and activated his Mangekyou Sharingan.

Looking at the pair of Mangekyou Sharingan slowly whirling in Shinichi’s eyes, the puppet knew that there was no room for talk, and only fists could speak now.

“It appears that firstly I have to teach you, people, a lesson, only then will you people realize your place and agree to cooperate.” Spoke puppet in anger, and prepared for the battle.

The current state of the master behind the puppet is different from the past. If it was before, he would have definitely chosen to hide and escape if put in such a situation, however, since he got his hands on that thing, he is no longer afraid of anything.

Whoosh

With a quick body flicker Jutsu, Shinichi disappeared from his place.

‘Shinra Tensei!’

The puppet didn’t bother to figure out the direction from which Uchiha Shinichi would attack him and released a repulsive force in all directions.

Boom!

The repulsive force released by the puppet swept all directions, as the dust and smoke cleared, the view became clear and the surrounding terrain changed. Trees, grass, rocks, and animals in the surroundings were blown away and a flat ground was left.

Shinichi was naturally not exempted from suffering, his movement was intercepted by the repulsive force and he was thrown backwards.

Standing in the center of the messy battlefield, the puppet looked at the pathetic state of Shinichi, and mocked him, “Is this level of Uchiha’s legendary Mangekyou Sharingan… just like your Patriarch, you too are vulnerable in front of me…”

Embarrassed, Shinichi got up from the ground and said, “So, my guess was correct… are indeed someone from Konohagakure.”

“It’s nothing to be surprised about.” Muttered puppet, and said, “If Akatsuki wanted to figure out my background, then you have done that… so can we stop already?”

The master controlling the puppet didn’t want to turn against Akatsuki yet, especially when he was in urgent need of a puppet.

“Bah… damn it… I got mud in my mouth!” Shinichi spit out the mud in his mouth, then looked at the puppet and asked, “You were a member of the Hyuga Clan, right?”

The master of the puppet was taken aback. Since the other party had already guessed it, so he didn’t bother to hide it and nodded, “Yes.” Then asked, “How did you figure it out?”

‘Damn so, he really is a member of the Hyuga Clan! It seems he might really know Boss’s identity!’ thought Shinichi inwardly and looked at the puppet with the intention to kill/

Shinichi no longer doubted the puppet’s words. In his opinion, if anyone has a chance of finding out the identity of Yama, and the secrets of Amatsukami, then that has to be a member of the Hyuga Clan.

Having confirmed this, Shinichi decided that the person behind the puppet had to be killed at all costs before he did any damage to Amatsukami.

With this in mind, Shinichi no longer played around and got serious.

Before the puppet could understand what happened, Shinichi suddenly raised both hands, and immediately countless wires–that were buried under the ground–appeared on the battlefield, and intertwined around the puppet. Binding it, and restricting its movement.

“What?!” the puppet was taken aback as it realized that its movements had been restricted, even raising its hand became impossible.

What’s more shocking is, the puppet couldn’t even realize when Shinichi prepared such a trap.

As the puppet was trying to figure this out, suddenly the Uchiha Shinichi standing in front of it exploded into white smoke.

Poof!

“What… that was a Shadow Clone all along?!” the puppet was startled.

And before he could figure out anything, suddenly a murderous voice came from its back, “So… you are someone only with raw power… and no battle experience… it makes sense… Now… Although I do have guesses about your identity… I want to confirm it… let’s see who are you.”

Just as Shinichi prepared to use Genjutsu, the puppet lost its strings (metaphorically) and broke into several pieces.

It seemed that the master of the puppet cut the connection as soon as he realized that his secrets would be seen through by Uchiha Shinichi, obviously, he didn’t want his secrets to be discovered, because that would put him at a serious disadvantage.

So, the master cut the strings of the puppet and disappeared.

Seeing that the person seemed to have escaped, Shinichi was disappointed and looked around, trying to see if he could find any trail of chakra that would lead him to the puppeteer behind the puppet.

“Tch… so this was a miss, huh.” He muttered in an annoyed tone of voice as he realized that he couldn’t find anything.

After a while, Shinichi looked at the puppet fallen on the ground and muttered to himself, “Still, what kind of Ninjutsu is it that allows him to control puppets from a long distance, what’s more, surprising is that I can’t even see the connection… Sigh, this is really annoying.”

Being unable to figure out the method the puppeteer used, Shinichi looked helpless.

Although he was mentally prepared for the failure, this type of ending is still a bit unacceptable for him, especially when he was so close to it.

“Forget it, I will figure this out later, for now, I have to deal with what’s coming.” He shook his head with such a thought in his mind and turned around.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

At this time, five figures, each one wearing the turtle neck cloak of Akatsuki Organization were rushing towards him.

These five are none other than the Kiri squad of Akatsuki comprising Biwa Juzo, Hoshigaki Kisame, Chinoike Mageta, Kaguya Takashi, and Kahyo.

It didn’t take long for the five to surround Shinichi.

Standing at the center, Juzo looked at Shinichi helplessly, and said, “I am not really surprised… I had expected that this day would come… still, it came sooner than I predicted…”

There was no need for questioning and trying to figure out what happened. Without Nagato or Madara’s permission, Shinichi attacked the puppet, and this act of attacking someone who would cooperate with Akatsuki and help them fight their biggest enemy is clearly betrayal.

Before coming after the puppet, Shinichi was prepared for this to happen, therefore, he was neither worried, nor scared, and said with a smirk, “I guess… But still… I thought that it would be Sasori coming after me… didn’t expect that it would be you Juzo.”
