Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

“Sigh… it seems that person is extremely vigilant. As soon as that person realized that someone was spying on them, he decided to destroy this place huh?” muttered Yama looking at the ruins of the temple.

Disappointed, he left the temple and tried to search in the nearby areas for any signs, although he found several tracks, it was clear that they were all diversions, while the person in question had long since gone underground.

Now, there was nothing he could do for a while, and decided to go back to the village, because he didn’t think that the traitor would sit still for long.

…

Konohagakure

After dispersing the shadow Clone, Kuroto went through its memory but found no valuable information. It seems nothing noteworthy happened in the village in his absence.

Since nothing major happened in the village, so Kuroto put it aside and focused on the most important thing at this moment, that is to identify the traitor as soon as possible and take custody of the Giant Tenseigan of the Hyuga Clan.

‘I guess Hizashi-sama can help me.’ With such a thought in his mind, Kuroto decided to go to Hyuga Hizashi’s house.

Considering the location of the ruins of the temple where the Giant Tenseigan was sealed, if the traitor wanted to find it, he must have left the village in the past week, or perhaps even before that.

Therefore, as long as the list of the Hyuga Clansmen who have left the village in the past week is carefully investigated, identifying the identity of the traitor might be possible.

Although Kuroto’s request was a bit strange, Hizashi didn’t think much about it and directly handed him the list of Hyuga Clansmen who went out of Konoha in the past week.

Kuroto didn’t just depend on Hizashi, he even contacted his people in the Anbu and the Konoha Military Police Force and asked them to send him the lift of Hyuga Clansmen who went out of Konoha in the past week.

Kuroto didn’t want to miss a single Hyuga Clansman, after all, this matter is related to the Giant Tenseigan, and he can’t help but be extremely serious about this matter.

Combining the list obtained from all the sources, Kuroto found that about two dozen Hyuga Clansmen went out of Konohoa in the past week. However, what’s surprising is that except for three people all of them had already returned to the village. As for the three people in question who were still outside, they went with their teams to perform missions assigned by Hokage-sama, so they had relevant reasons to go out.

Flipping through the files of these three people, Kuroto thought to himself a little unsure, ‘Could one of them really be the traitor?’

Although the background of these three people is clean, Kuroto can’t help but doubt them, after all, they are not in the village during this sensitive period of time. So, he sent the information about these three people to Itachi and ordered him to investigate them.

After dealing with this matter, Kuroto returned to his home.

As he arrived at his house, Kuroto noted that the seal around his house was breached, meaning someone who was not authorized to come to his house came in his absence. Upon further inspection, he found that only the seal around the perimeter of the house was breached, so no one entered his house.

Curious, Kuroto carefully checked the lawn and backyard of his house… And there it was, at the corner of his backyard a small conspicuous bamboo tube laid.

After making sure that the bamboo tube wasn’t rigged in any way, Kuroto opened it and found a small parchment with something written on it.

‘If you want to break free of the ‘Caged Bird’ Juinjutsu, meet me alone at the back hill at midnight.’ Said the parchment.

Reading the text written on the parchment, Kuroto was taken aback, “Has he already returned to the village?”

Kuroto didn’t need to guess the identity of the person who sent this note. It must be the traitor of the Hyuga Clam.

But this is very surprising.

At the moment his Tenseigan resonated with the Giant Tenseigan, Kuroto noted that the place was very far from the Land of Fire, heck it was not even on the mainland of the Elemental Nation. As soon as the resonance was disrupted because of the sealing of Giant Tenseigan, Kuroto left Ancor Vantian and went to that place. The reason he reached there quite fast was that the floating fortress was nearby that temple, but Kuroto found nothing. The traitor had kept his track hidden quite well, and even Kuroto wasn’t able to find him. So, he returned to the village as fast as he could in order to prepare because he had a feeling that the traitor would return to the village.

But to think that that person arrived almost at the same time or perhaps even before him!

Of course, he had a few hours of a headstart, but that doesn’t explain how he returned before even him!

It must not be forgotten that Kuroto was traveling at his top speed in Tenseigan Chakra Mode, yet the two arrived almost at the same time!

Knowing this, Kuroto could no longer take that guy lightly, and muttered, “His strength seems to be much stronger than I expected.” Then he looked at the parchment of paper in his hand, and thought, ‘Good thing is, he decided to jump out on his own, now I don’t need to go to the trouble of finding him. Well, let’s first see who the traitor is.’

Kuroto doesn’t know the traitor’s purpose, but since the other party wants to meet him, Kuroto would oblige. After all, this is the best opportunity to investigate the other party’s motives and weaknesses.

If at all possible, Kuroto even plans to deal with the traitor then and there and take custody of Giant Tenseigan.

With this in mind, Kuroto decided to wait until midnight.

…

Midnight

Pushing through a patch of long grass, as Kuroto made his way forward, he found a man wrapped in a black cloak in the deeper woods.

‘So there he is.’ Thought Kuroto as he activated his Byakugan and observed the other party.

Looking at that guy with his Byakugan, Kuroto was disappointed, ‘Tch… just a puppet.’

As Kuroto approached the puppet, the puppet spoke in a human tone of voice, “Hyuga Kuroto, you are finally here!”

Kuroto indifferently looked at the guy, and asked, “Who are you?”

At Kuroto’s question, the puppet spread its arms and said in a passionate tone of voice, “I am the god who can lead you to salvation. I can fix every broken thing in this world.”

“God?” Hearing the puppet’s answer, Kuroto felt a little weird, and thought, ‘Ah… here we go again.’

In recent years, he has met a lot of these self-proclaimed ‘Gods’. The last one who claimed himself to be ‘God’ had his soul and body turned to dust by Kuroto. The one before that had been beaten to death by him twice already. The one before that had a miserable death, the one before that… and the one before that… forget it, there have been too many of them to keep a count.

Therefore, he didn’t really take the guy seriously and asked the next question, “What’s your motive behind leaving such a note at my house?”

The puppet didn’t know Kuroto’s thoughts, and answered, “The reason I left that note at your house is that I want you to become my subordinate. Serve me and I will free you from the bindings of ‘Caged Bird’ Juinjutsu. Only I can do this!”

Kuroto narrowed his eyes, and asked in a deeper tone of voice, “Can you really free someone from the ‘Caged Bird’ Juinjutsu?”

The way the other party made such a claim, Kuroto guessed that his previous hypothesis was indeed correct. The Giant Tenseigan of the Hyuga Clan really had something to do with the ‘Caged Bird’ Juinjutsu, and if that’s the case, then the steady decrease in the population of the Hyuga Clan can also be explained.

At the same time, Kuroto also ascertained that the other party is a member of the branch family. Kuroto doubts anyone from the main family would present such an offer.

Not knowing Kuroto’s thoughts, and feeling that he was being doubted, the puppet mocked Kuroto, “Hyuga Kuroto, although you have some noteworthy achievements, your vision of the world is still narrow. Serve me, and you will have the freedom that you desire so much!”
