Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan-Chapter 7 - – 7 The Tenseigan Trials
In his heart, Kuroto has realized.
Based on the conversation between Mitsui and Anko just now, he roughly judged that the so-called "special mission" Mitsui handed over to Oda and Anko should be to make contact with the spy that Konoha had planted in Sand Ninja Village. ??
But how could the Konoha Village give such a secret mission to two mere Chunin ninjas who are still under the screening period?
It simply doesn't make any sense to do so.
So Kuroto's intuition is correct. This so-called 'special task' is a trap. The village may have really abandoned their old ninjas that were under Orochimaru's authority, and they are trying to clean them one by one through reasonable means.
"Is it Shimura Danzo? Sandaime-sama? Or maybe Yondaime-sama?"
The first target of Kuroto's suspicion is Danzo. Orochimaru defected early this time. There are many inside stories in all this matter, therefore, it is difficult to judge what role Danzo played in it, but there is no doubt that Danzo must have a big part.
Judging by the thought process that since Shimura Danzo is the biggest beneficiary of this whole fiasco as a result of Orochimaru's defection, the biggest suspect is naturally him; who most likely prompted Orochimaru's early defection.
As such, both Danzo and Orochimaru may have completely cut off their relationship, so it would be reasonable for Danzo to dispose off of Orochimaru's former subordinates who did not agree to join the roots.
The suspicion of the Sandaime-sama can't be ruled out either, because the Sandaime-sama is the kind of person who can really do a lot of unbelievably stupid things for the so-called stability.
This was the case when he didn't take any severe action in regards to the events that led to Konoha's White Fang to commit suicide, or the events that would be happening in the future as per Kuroto's memories from the past life, for example, to avoid a likely war with the Cloud Village, Sandaime pressured the Hyuga Clan to surrender Hyuga Hiashi under Cloud Village's demand, let Uzumaki Naruto grow up under village's discrimination and abuse, and Uchiha Clan downfall.
Therefore, he is also a possible suspect.
As for the Yondaime-sama, Kuroto thinks he wouldn't do it.
This is not just his faith upon Yondaime-sama, but the fact that Yondaime-sama were a civilian ninja. They have neither the support of their own clan nor from Sandaime-sama. Therefore, Yondaime-sama should not have enough power to complete these arrangements.
At the same time, Yondaime-sama doesn't need to rush to clean up the possible dissidents considering the advantage of Yondaime-sama's strength and age.
In short, no matter who is presiding over this purge behind the scenes, Kuroto has already become the target of the other party, so Kuroto knows that the danger is already over his head, and he doesn't have much time.
Days pass by, and now a week after the Attack on Anko event, Kuroto finally passed the Tenseigan adaptation period.
The dizziness and tingling sensation disappeared completely, followed by a comprehensive enhancement of vision.
Tenseigan gives the user all the abilities that Byakugan provides to its owner, in a much-enhanced form.
This is especially the case with subtle insight. Through just ordinary observation, Kuroto can roughly judge the enemy's next move through his Chakra flow and muscle expansion & contraction.
In addition to insight improvement, the other biggest change within Kuroto is the growth in his Chakra Volume.
Kuroto estimates that his current Chakra Volume is roughly 45 to 50 times before injecting the gene awakening serum. Such high Chakra growth is simply frightening, to say the least.
Kuroto also faintly feels that he has awakened some other abilities, but currently, due to being present at the guard post, he can't check them because he is not sure what kind of effect they might have on the surroundings.
'I'll have to somehow go to some area where my movements will not be under monitoring to have a complete understanding of my current set of abilities!' Kuroto made a mental note.
Suppressing his inner excitement, Kuroto continued to analyze that changes within his body after the completion of the adaption period following Tenseigan awakening. 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m
......…
A few days later, finally, it was Kuroto's turn to be on patrol duty alone.
On this day Kuroto was really excited to have finally got a chance to understand the abilities of the legendary Tenseigan.
"phew.....!"
Standing on the yellow desert, Kuroto took a light breath and extended his right-hand parallel to the ground.
As soon as he extended his hand, he could feel the flow of Chakra, he concentrated on the objective in his mind, and finally,
"Ha!!!!"
With just a single thought, a strong force was exerted into the air with him as the epicenter, as a result of which the swarming yellow sand was blown away like a hurricane head-on!
Looking at the resulting sand-storm in the distant sky that occurred because of him, left Kuroto's mouth was left half-open in shock.
"Holy Shit!"
This trick was comparable to Tendo Pain's Shinra Tensei and Bansho Ten'in, and the principle is also suction and repulsion. According to Kuroto's memory from his previous life, Otsutsuki Toneri also used this technique.
"Since it is a natural ability of Tenseigan, then this technique will be called, Rein Wheel Push! (Rein- from Reincarnation which is the literal English meaning of Tenseigan, Wheel term is used for most of the Tenseigan abilities and -Push for Repulsion, similarly Rein Pull for Tenseigan version of Bansho Ten'in)"
Kuroto then tried Rein Wheel Push and Rein Wheel Pull to have a better understanding of chakra consumption and the effective range of the technique.
As the initial excitement passed, Kuroto gradually discovered the shortcomings of Rein Wheel Push, that is, the effective range is only about 15 meters, and the further the distance, the weaker the effect.
Kuroto frowned while struggling to catch his breath due to overexertion.
Most of the attacking ninjutsu above C-level can have an attack range of more than 20 meters, and some can even reach 50 meters, and the killing range of throwing weapons such as kunai, shuriken, etc can easily exceed 20 meters.
In other words, once the enemy has opened the distance, it is quite difficult for Kuroto to control the enemy with a simple push and pull, with his current capacity at best he can use it to play some role in defense and interference.
Putting the shortcomings of small attack range aside, for the time being, Kuroto who was still panting discovered another shortcoming of himself, and that is low chakra volume.
Don't get wrong, his Chakra has at the very least increased 40 to 50 times since awakening Tenseigan; which ultimately made Kuroto very excited; but now that he has used Rein Wheel Rush and Rein Wheel Pull several times, he was surprised to find that his Chakra is almost exhausted.
It is only now that he realized just how small his initial Chakra Volume was.
Moreover, 40 to 50 times interfered with his objective judgment and made him wrongly estimate his chakra amount.
Because his previous Chakra Volume was at the standard level of a low-level Chunin, which is too mediocre, so even if it is increased by 40 to 50 times, the total volume is still not very exaggerated, only surpassing a high-level Chunin.
In this scenario; it's a far cry from his thinking to be able to use this ninjutsu wantonly and in comparison to Otsutsuki Toneri, who could play with the moon as a toy after awakening Tenseigan; he is so far behind that he can't even begin to understand the difference.
So regarding Otsutsuki Toneri as his standard for reference will only lead to mental attacks.
"Why is this?"
"Where is the problem?"
"Is my method of evolving the Tenseigan wrong?"
One question after another flooded Kuroto's mind.
After being confused for a while in doubts, anxiety, and even panic, he finally calmed down, and after another thought, all the previous puzzles were solved.
According to the memory of previous life, the only person who awakened the Tenseigan was Otsutsuki Toneri, so Kuroto subconsciously believed that as long as he awakens the Tenseigan, he would also gain the same level of strength as Otsutsuki Toneri.
But then thinking about it, Kekkai Genkai also gives a different level of strength to different people, the strength level with the same Kekkai Genkai will vary from individual to individual.
The same concept applies to Byakugan, there are many ninjas in the Hyuga Clan that are much better than Kuroto, similarly for Sharingan, when compared to Uchiha Madara, the vast majority of Uchiha are like salted fish.
According to the story, Otsutsuki Toneri was the large descendant of Otsutsuki Clan left on the moon, he was also a veritable genius, who had all the inheritance, knowledge, and records belonging to the Otsutsuki Clan at his hand to increase his base strength to Kage level even when he didn't awaken the Tenseigan.
After awakening the Tensegan, it was a matter of course for Otsutsuki Toneri to reach Super-Kage level strength in one fell swoop.
The current Hyuga Kuroto is really not comparable to such a powerhouse.
Kuroto's and Toneri's starting lines are not the same at all, so obviously it is quite unrealistic for Kuroto to awaken Super Kage level strength like Toneri, with just the Tenseigan.
After comprehending this point Kuroto relaxed.
He then tried using other techniques but found out that he can't do so. He is unable to enter the Tenseingan Chakra Mode. SO it is simply impossible for him to cut the moon in half as Toneri did or to use the Truth-Seeking Orbs and other abilities of great power.
'Hmm, is it necessary to use hand signs to enter the Tenseigan Chakra Mode?"
