Konoha Ninja Academy

Sasuke suddenly stopped, he turned around and looked at the canopy of a tree not far away with a frowned expression.

Noting the direction of Sasuke’s gaze, Neji whispered, “So, you noticed too huh?”

Sasuke nodded, “Yes.” Then he looked around and said, “Dozens of ninjas have surrounded the Academy… And they are using different means to partially hide their presence… I am just wondering who they are and why they have surrounded the academy?”

Neji answered Sasuke’s doubt, “They are Anbu.”

“Anbu?” Sasuke was taken aback, and questioned, “But why would Anbu surround the Academy? It doesn’t make any sense!”

Neji shrugged, “Beats me.” Then he looked in the direction of the gate of Konoha, and said, “But I have a feeling… something bad might happen here… and they are here probably trying to prevent that from happening.”

Sasuke shook his head, “No… I don’t think so…” and explained, “If something bad was about to happen at the academy, then Iruka-Sensei, my brother, and Principal would have instructed us to evacuate… since they did not warn us… it means everything is going to be fine. There must be some other reason why so many Anbu are present here.”

Neji sighed, “I hope that’s the case.”

Principal’s Office

After temporarily sealing Uchiha Shin’s Chakra, Kuroto handed him over to Iruka to keep a watch over him, then he returned to his office and took out a notebook and continued to work on the designs of ‘Type-II Biological Armor’ that was left incomplete earlier.

Kuroto didn’t really care about the Anbus surrounding the academy, nor did he care about the villagers gathered outside the gate of the academy. All his attention was on his notebook as he was completing the armor’s design.

After a week of testing and trial, Kuroto has figured out various shortcomings of ‘Type-I Biological Armor’.

Most of the shortcomings can be tolerated for the functionality, however, the fact that the chakra supply is unstable can not be ignored at any cost.

Because of this shortcoming of ‘Type-I Biological Armor’ Karin’s life is in danger. If any goes wrong, not only will she die, but even the two pairs of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan that are undergoing fusion will also suffer the backlash and end up being destroyed.

Therefore, Kuroto can’t take any risks. He has to deal with the shortcomings of ‘Type-I Biological Armor’ and complete the ‘Type-II Biological Armor’ as soon as possible.

“I suppose… I should try to change the ratio of tissue I will be using for creating the ‘Type-II Biological Armor’. Reducing Shodaime-sama’s tissues to twenty per cent might improve the stability of chakra supply.”

“Secondly, I can also try to change the network of tissues too for better conductivity of Chakra. The network used in the ‘Type-I Biological Armor’ was too premature. Improving the network will also stabilize the chakra supply.”

“To change the network and improve the transmission of chakra, the design of meridians will have to be refined as well.”

“I wonder if I can use something other than Umbilical Cord for transferring the chakra from the ‘Type-I Biological Armor’ to her body.”

One after another, Kuroto thought of various changes he can make in the ‘Type-II Biological Armor’.

Because of various reasons, such as his Hyuga Background, his history of working on clones and human bodies, and the recent effort of improving the Yin-seal, Kuroto has acquired extensive knowledge of the Chakra Meridians in the human body. He knows exactly which Chakra Meridian has what function, how much chakra it can withstand and so many other things. Therefore, Kuroto feels that he will definitely be able to create a completely new chakra pathway for the ‘Type-II Biological Clone’.

Of course, the process will require a lot of trial and error, but he will be able to do it eventually.

With this thought in his mind, he started to work on designing the Chakra network for the ‘Type-II Biological Armor’.

He was only halfway through when Kuroto realized a major problem.

There is no problem with the design or functionality, the problem is resources… well not exactly resources, but the funds required to acquire the necessary resources.

Even if he were to delay the repair of Ancor Vantian, Kuroto still lacks the necessary funds to be able to acquire the resources for creating the ‘Type-II Biological Armor’.

As per Kuroto’s estimation, a single ‘Type-II Biological Armor’ will cost at least tens of millions of Ryo.

As a researcher, Kuroto knows that there will be several mistakes in the development process, so the cost will definitely increase. It won’t be a surprise if nearly a hundred million Ryo is spent.

Kuroto doesn’t have this kind of money in his hand at the moment, so he couldn’t help but feel troubled, ‘How am I going to find the necessary funds?’

He could try to earn the funds from the Black Market, but it would take a lot of time and Kuroto doesn’t have so much time. Besides, if he were to get active in the Black Market, no doubt, Akatsuki will try to use every possible means at their disposal to trace him. He doesn’t want to deal with Akatsuki at the moment, so the idea of using the Black Market was rejected.

“I’ll have to figure out some other method.” Muttered Kuroto with a helpless expression.

Whoosh!

Knock! Knock!

Just as Kuroto was busy thinking of a way to earn funds, suddenly there was a knock on the window of his office.

Kuroto looked over and found out that the person who came was none other than Kakashi, seeing him, Kuroto quickly closed the notebook and said, “Come in!”

Kakashi opened the window and walked in with a solemn expression.

Looking at Kakashi’s expression, Kuroto asked, “What happened?”

Kakashi replied, “Just as we expected, things are going to get troublesome.”

“Troublesome?” muttered Kuroto and asked, “What do you mean?”

Kakashi took the opposite seat, and explained, “We have received word… it won’t be Uchiha Shisui or Uchiha Patriarch to come to pick up Uchiha Shin… rather it will be Uchiha Shinichi.”

Kuroto was surprised by the information Kakashi brought, and muttered, “I am quite interested in knowing the identity of the spy you just mentioned.”

Kakashi shook his head, “I am sorry… this is something I can’t tell you for the time being.” Then he said, “But don’t worry… that person is reliable and the information is accurate.”

Kuroto waved his hand, and said, “No… no… I was just joking with you, obviously, I know that these secrets can’t be revealed.” Besides, he already knows the identity of the spy. And added after a pause, “Anyway, you were talking about Uchiha Shinichi.”

Kakashi nodded, “Yes… So, the Uchiha Clan has sent Shinichi to bring back Uchiha Shin.” And added in a worried tone, “The two of you had several conflicts in the past, so we can’t deny the possibility that he will once again seek trouble.”

Kakashi continued, “If Uchiha Shinichi causes trouble… the lives of children at the academy will be in danger… so the two of us will have to work together to neutralize him.”

“Well…” muttered Kuroto with a surprised expression.

Before he could say anything, Kakashi interrupted him, “Kuroto, there is no time to think about it! His Mangekyo Sharingan ability won’t be easy to deal with, so it would be safer this way!”
