Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-87

As soon as he walked into the ancient city of Roran, Kuroto felt a sense of oppression.

The oppression was not from the Chakra, but from the presence of sentience, he felt similar to how an ordinary human would feel in the presence of a beast.

…Byakugan…

Activating the Byakugan, Kuroto observed everything around him, and while carefully walking towards the central tower he paid special attention to any movements in the surroundings.

In his Byakugan’s perception, the entire city was in a solitary state, with no signs of activity at all, and no chakra in his perception either.

“It’s kind of weird!”

Witnessing such a scene, Kuroto had doubts in his heart.

No matter how uninhabited the place maybe there have to creatures like a snake, rats, ants, spiders, and other insects in here, but strangely Kuroto couldn’t perceive any signs of life.

This bothered him a little.

Shaking his head in disappointment, Kuroto decided to just let go of such a strange thing, after all, he didn’t have any fear.

No matter how bad the situation may get, it wouldn’t be bad enough for him to freak about it, with his current strength, at the very least Kuroto has confidence in being able to retreat safely.

And that absolute certainty lies even if the Dragon Vein Chakra runs amok.

So, without caring too much, Kuroto came to the place where Yondaime-Sama sealed the Dragon Vein.

Observing the applied seal for a short while, Kuroto muttered thoughtfully, ‘Sure enough, it’s a compound seal.’

Kuroto was able to distinguish multiple types of sealing techniques Yondaime-Sama used to design a compound seal for sealing the Dragon Vein.

Approaching a little closer, Kuroto studied the techniques carefully.

While analyzing, Kuroto muttered thoughtfully, “The principal seal is Four-Symbols Seal, but there are also 2 other types of seals, one is the Contract Seal while the other technique…”

After a rough analysis, Kuroto can conclude that this dragon vein is sealed by a combination of three different seals, two of which are Uzumaki Seals, but the third one is unknown.

Apart from the two seals being the Four Symbols Seal, and the Contract Seal, Kuroto doesn’t have the faintest Clue on what the third type of seal is, at least it’s not an Uzumaki seal for sure.

‘At the time of his mission at the Roran City, Yondaime-Sama definitely didn’t inherit the position of Hokage, so there are only two sources for him to learn seal techniques.

The first source was his lover Uzumaki Kushina, to teach him the Uzumaki Fuinjutsu techniques, and the other was his teacher, the Sannin Jiraiya who could teach him the sealing techniques of one of the holy places, Mount Myoboku.

So, the third seal technique used would definitely belong to Mount Myoboku.

With this theory, Kuroto pondered whether he can successfully break through the seal applied by Yondaime-Sama.

After a little bit of brainstorming, Kuroto felt that he should be able to successfully break through the seal.

After all, the entire seal is designed with Four-Symbols Seal as the foundation, and Kuroto has confidence in his ability to break through it, after all, breaking is always easier than creating, so once the seal is forcibly cracked, the rushing Dragon Vein Chakra should break through the rest of the seal on its own.

Now the only problem is that Yondaime-Sama also used Contract Seal in the seal applied, this implies the Dragon Vein definitely has a contractual relationship with the Royal Bloodline of the Roran City.

Therefore, if he wants to be a hundred percent certain for the safety while suppressing the Dragon Vein Chakra, it would be best to bring the descendants of the Royal Blood Line of the Roran City while breaking the seal.

“But where to find the descendants of Queen of Roran?” – muttered Kuroto helplessly.

…

Konoha Village, Root Base.

Whoosh…

A ninja suddenly appeared with the Body Flicker Technique and reported to Shimura Danzo who was waiting impatiently for the report, “Danzo-Sama, the autopsy of the Kuroshimasu has been completed.”

Tapping his crutch impatiently, Danzo asked with clear anger in his voice, “Report!”

The kneeling Root ninja immediately replied, “Death due to Fatal piercing on the forehead, additionally, there are 37 piercing wounds on Kuroshimasu’s body, there is also serious blood loss, due to having so many injuries.”

“What about memory information?” – Danzo asked.

“Unfortunately, we can’t extract any information from the brain, because the brain tissues are heavily damaged.” – replied the Root ninja.

The Root ninja giving the report was sweating in fear, he could sense, the more information he gave on the autopsy report the more intense bloodlust oozing off of Danzo-Sama.

By the end of the whole report, Danzo’s face was way past gloomier.

Was that anger for the death of Kuroshimasu.

No! There is no way Shimura Danzo would grieve for the death of a ninja, for him they are all just pieces to be used and then disposed of.

Therefore, Danzo wasn’t angry about that.

When he first heard that Kuroshimasu died, his first reaction was that it must have been done by Hyuga Kuroto.

But after thinking about it he wasn’t sure anymore.

Because Shimura Danzo knows if it had been Hyuga Kuroto, then he would have already received a message by now, Danzo knows that Kuroshimasu would have used the last of his life to send him a report about Hyuga Kuroto’s action.

But he didn’t receive any such report.

This implies that Kuroshimasu died even before he could send a report. Danzo doesn’t believe Hyuga Kuroto to be strong enough to do this!

Danzo is angry because Kuroshimasu died so inexplicably!

This is not acceptable to him!

Seeing Danzo’s silence, the Root ninja continued with the Autopsy report.

“While conducting the autopsy, we found traces of iron sand in his wounds, not in just one or two, but in all of them.

Danzo had a strange expression upon hearing this, “Iron Sand!?”

“yes, Danzo-Sama, the iron sand particles are very fine, almost uniform in size, and they are highly chakra conductive in nature. The iron sand appears to be washed with cons=citrated chakra for a long time… ju-just like…”

The Root ninja wanted to speak his inference, but he, himself felt absurd thinking of such a possibility.

However, even if the Root ninja didn’t speak, Danzo has more than enough knowledge and experience to know what the root ninja’s inference was.

As a result, only two words escaped his mouth, “Sand Village!”

And the thought of the involvement of Sand Village, in this case, appeared in his mind, but after thinking a little he questioned again, “Did you check the background and identity of the ninja that brought over Kuroshimasu’s corpse!?”

Root ninja immediately replied, “Yes, there is no problem in his resume, neither does he has any sort of connection with Hyuga Kuroto or the rest of the Hyuga Clan.”

However, Danzo wasn’t satisfied and said sternly, “That isn’t enough, search his memory, I want to know everything!

“Yes!” The Root ninja immediately nodded and quickly retreated to follow the new order.

Not long after that, the same Root ninja appeared again, and reported to Danzo, “Danzo-Sama, we have confirmed through torture and memory search, the chunin doesn’t have any connection with Hyuga Kuroto!”

Thinking a little Danzo again questioned, “What about Hyuga Kuroto’s state when he delivered Kuroshimasu’s corpse at the guard post, were there any signs of injuries?”

Root ninja shook his head negatively, “No in the memory of his meeting Hyuga Kuroto, there were no visible signs of any type of injury on his body!”

Danzo then questioned, “By the way, where has Hyuga Kuroto gone?”

“Neither of them knows, in fact, from a rough perspective nobody other Hokage-Sama knows about where Hyuga Kuroto has gone!”

With all the information at his hands, Danzo was still not sure and muttered in confusion, “Was it Hyuga Kuroto who somehow managed to kill Kuroshimasu, or was it the bounty ninja that came after Hyuga Kuroto?”

“By the way, Danzo-Sama, what to do with the chunin who brought over the corpse, after going through the torture and forced brain search, his chakra pathway is damaged, he can’t be a ninja anymore.”

To this Danzo only waved his hands dismissively.

This action only meant, ‘Just deal with him as usual!’

The Root ninja naturally understood what Danzo-Sama meant with this and he nodded respectfully, “Yes!”
