Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-90

Yamada accepted the balance amount along with the seal of approval for the completion of the task and left along with the guide they hired.

During the whole process, in fact, for the entire month, Yamada didn’t try to snoop around Kuroto too much.

Being a Jonin, Yamada has long since discovered that ‘Mr. Mu’ is also a ninja, after all, one can’t continue running around the desert for a month, even if the body is strong, the spirit will be exhausted, but ‘Mr. Mu’ didn’t show the slightest sign of fatigue, indicating that he is also a shinobi.

As an experienced ninja from a small shinobi village, Yamada has performed all sorts of missions, that could even be considered too weird if anything, there have even been cases where the task was issued by a ninja of a great shinobi village to assassinate a ninja of the same village.

All this experience has taught him one thing, i.e., the less he knows things unrelated to him, the safer he will be and the longer he will live. Therefore, he didn’t bother asking anything from ‘Mr. Mu’ about his purpose and all.

Kuroto was also very satisfied with Yamada’s awareness.

If Yamada had asked about anything or showed any signs of snooping around in search for Kuroto’s purpose of finding the Roran survivors, Kuroto would have no choice but to take that ten million bounty reward on his head.

But since Yamada didn’t care, Kuroto naturally didn’t bother either.

After the grass ninja and the guide left, Kuroto concealed himself behind the sand dunes and observed the Roran survivors.

Not long after, his eyes fell upon a woman with red hair.

The woman appeared to be around 20 years old, holding a baby in her arms with a melancholy expression.

Kuroto was a little uncertain and muttered to himself, “Is she the one?”

In his impression, the last queen of Roran, Sara, was probably four to five years older than Kakashi who was traveling with Minato-Sama at the time. Since Kuroto and Kakashi are of the same age, so Sara should be four to five years older than him. This means her current age should be about twenty years old.

And the age of the woman with red hair holding the baby in her hand appears to be the same. Among all the survivors present here, only she meets the condition, so Kuroto finally concluded that she has to be Sara.

“Finally found her!” – muttered Kuroto.

‘With this, another problem for the artificial tail beast project has been solved.’ – Kuroto thought with emotion.

Since this task is done, he summoned the Kazekage puppet out of the scroll.

The purpose of Kuroto’s trip has been completed.

Of course, he wouldn’t be getting in touch with her this time. This is because if something strange happened to the Dragon Vein while he is out of the Village, then there are chances that the suspicion would fall upon him, which is something he doesn’t want to deal with just yet.

Kuroto had two objectives in this two-month trip.

The first was to check out the seal used by Yondaime-Sama to seal the Dragon Vein.

The second was to confirm the whereabouts of the last Queen of Roran.

Now that both of the objectives have been completed, he only needs to leave the Kazekage puppet behind to keep track of Roran survivors. While he can return back to Konoha and then find an opportunity to secretly sneak out of the village to steal the Dragon Vein silently.

Puff…

Before Kuroto can even do something, the lazy figure of the one-eyed viper appeared on his shoulder.

Kuroto was taken aback by the sudden appearance of the one-eyed viper.

Calming down his heart, he took out the scroll from its mouth to read the psychic communication sent by Orochimaru.

After reading the content of the scroll, he couldn’t help but sigh.

“That guy is so persistent!” The information in the scroll is a warning sent by Orochimaru to inform him that Sasori has been able to track his movements in the Land of Wind, and now they will be coming here.

In the search for the whereabouts of the remnants of the Roran Survivors, Kuroto traveled to many places and interacted with all sorts of people. Since Sasori was able to track his movements this could only mean that someone might have been able to see through his disguise and informed Sasori.

But it doesn’t matter anymore, he has already completed his objectives so there is no need to stay in the Land of Wind any longer.

Thinking about the warning Orochimaru sent him, Kuroto also took out a scroll and handed it to the One-Eyed Viper.

The content of the scroll records the detailed information of the Anbu members Kuroto collected up to now, this even details about the Anbu ninja that died in the war against the Cloud village.

This was one of the conditions Orochimaru presented to him in exchange for the information of artificial Tailed.

After so long, Kuroto has to obviously give his teacher some information.

Not to mention, Orochimaru’s warning this time also saved him from big trouble named Sasori, so Kuroto had to repay the favor.

…

Konoha Village, Hokage Office.

Sandaime-Sama stood by the window to observe the hustle and bustle of the village, Danzo silently sat on the side while tapping his crutches in impatience.

The three members of the Team-11 nervously stood in front of the Hokage’s desk each one’s heart beating more vigorously because of the sound of the crutch tapping.

After waiting for little, while the three members the information they were given, Sandaime turned around and questioned the three members of Team-11, “Have you finished reading the details?”

Kakashi and the other two nodded.

“So, what are your opinions on the matter, would Hyuga Kuroto do such a thing?” – Sandaime questioned.

Guy was the first to answer, “Hokage-Sama, I believe that Kuroto would never kill a ninja of the same village!”

Putting back the report in his hand Kakashi also said, “I also have faith in Kuroto.”

In Kakashi’s opinion, Kuroto even led back the team to help him, not to mention he opted to stay behind and secure a retreat for him and Guy in the face of hundreds of Cloud Ninja, and he even did so much damage to the cloud village, all for the sake of Konoha.

How can someone so dedicated to Konoha betray the village?

Even if the Root ninja in the report did die in Kuroto’s hands, the first attack must have been initiated by the Root ninja, Kuroto himself wouldn’t choose to take the initiative.

Different from Guy and Kakashi, Shisui was a little more nervous, because different from the two he has already seen and knows of the Kazekage puppet, therefore he realized that it must have been Kuroto-San who killed the root ninja, and coupled with the tension between Danzo-Sama and Kuroto-San just makes it all the more clear.

But even if Shisui knew of this, he couldn’t bring himself to tell this to Hokage-Sama because of the promise he made to Kuroto-San.

So, even if he felt guilty for hiding this, Shisui gritted his teeth and gave the same answer as Kakashi and Guy.

“Humph!” – Danzo snorted coldly, clearly dissatisfied with the three.

Sandaime sighed and said, “Even if Hyuga Kuroto didn’t kill Kuroshimasu himself, he does bear some responsibility for his death, as such he will be suspended from the Anbu Black Ops!”

“Hokage-Sama, Hyuga Kuroto is a member of my Team-11, if he is responsible, I too am responsible as the captain of the Class!” – Kakashi said calmly.

“Your Team-11 concealed a part of the truth last time, this time a member of your Class is suspected of assassinating a ninja of the same village. I suggest all the members of the Team-11 be suspended from their positions in the Anbu!” – Danzo said coldly.

Sandaime sighed and stated, “Very well, Team-11 is suspended from their position in the Anbu department.”

In Hiruzen’s opinion, this suspension will only be for a short while, he didn’t want to bother too much with this trivial matter in arguing with Danzo, so in order to appease Danzo who lost a ninja in his Root unit, Sandaime chooses to temporarily suspend Team-11.
