Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan-Chapter 829 - Start of a Cold War?
“Kuroto, there is no time to think about it! His Mangekyou Sharingan ability won’t be easy to deal with, so it would be safer this way!”
Kuroto seemed to want to say something, but since Kakashi had made up his mind, so he decided to stay silent and nodded.

With Kuroto’s agreement, Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief. Then he walked back towards the window and while looking, he spoke, “To be honest, I should be thanking you right now on behalf of the village.”
Kuroto was confused, “Thank me? Why?”
“You took action and detained Uchiha Shin in such a high-profile manner… you did that to keep the Uchiha within their limits?” asked Kakashi, then added with a sigh, “Kuroto… I have to admit that when it comes to critical decision-making… you really surpass me.”
Kakashi was also present on the streets at that time, but unlike Kuroto, Kakashi hesitated to take any action.
He decided to wait and watch as the situation unfolded because he wasn’t sure of the consequences that his actions might have on the village. For all he knew, he might have become the cause of a civil war in Konoha! He didn’t want to carry such a burden on his shoulder so he stood in his place and dare not take a step forward.
Although he understood that someone needs to stand up and stop Uchiha Shin, he still decided to wait and even decided to call Uchiha Shisui for help, but did not step forward personally, and this made him feel like crap.
Unlike him, Kuroto didn’t hesitate at all. As soon as he arrived, he easily dealt with Uchiha Shin, and even went as far as to drag him all the way to the Academy and detain him there.
That’s why, this time, Kakashi decided to take some responsibility and help out Kuroto in dealing with the Uchiha Clan.
Kuroto did not Kakashi’s thought. When he heard Kakashi’s reason, he asked with a smile, “Then would you be kind enough to put some good word for me in front of Hokage-sama? I would appreciate it if he gave me some bonus…”
Kakashi smiled and shook his head, he didn’t take Kuroto seriously. He thought Kuroto was just joking. Then his smile disappeared as he warned, “The Uchiha Clan is no longer the same as it was before… in the future… if you are dealing with them, please be cautious.”
Whoosh!
Kakashi had just finished his words when Anbu suddenly arrived in Kuroto’s office, and reported, “Target has crossed the main market district… soon he will be entering the Academy.”
Kakashi’s expression turned serious, and he asked, “How many of them have come?”
The Anbu replied, “Uchiha Shinichi has come alone.”
…
On Shinichi’s side
He covered the entire distance at a slow walking pace. From the Uchiha District to the Konoha Academy, there was no sense of urgency in his pace.
Of course, Shinichi did feel quite annoyed by the strange glances he received from the villagers along the way. They were looking at him with interest. There were signs of expectations and anticipation on their faces, everyone wanted to know what he–an Uchiha–would do… but none of them dared to stop him or get in his way, probably because they were extremely scared of him.
‘Tch… I didn’t think too much about it earlier… but Boss is right. The villagers really fear us.’ He thought and muttered to himself, “Obviously Uchiha are also working day and night for the betterment of the village… we have shed so much blood and sacrificed so much for Konoha… yet we get such treatment… this is really disheartening.”
Shaking his head, Shinichi decided not to pay them any mind and continued on his way.
It didn’t take long for him to arrive at the gate of Konoha Ninja Academy.
When the onlookers discovered Shinichi, they immediately distanced themselves.
Ignoring the onlookers, Shinichi opened the door of the academy and walked in.
Most of the students at the academy were not aware of the stuff that happened in the village today. These children did notice that the streets around the academy are extraordinarily lively today, but they didn’t know the reason behind it. Even if they asked the teachers, they did not get any response.
Only a few children with keen observation skills noticed the serious expression of teachers since morning. But even they couldn’t figure out the reason why the teachers were so serious.
One such child was Uchiha Sasuke… He spotted Shinichi walking across the training field as he made his way towards the main building, and couldn’t help but mutter in confusion, “Why is he here? It doesn’t make any sense? Is he going to be teaching at the academy?”
Neji looked in the direction of Kuroto’s office. He had spotted a few Anbu around the Principal’s office a while ago, and now that Uchiha Shinichi has arrived at school, everything has started to make sense. It’s possible that a conflict might occur between Uchiha Shinichi and his Sensei.
Shinichi is a former member of the Akatsuki and he is very strong. it’s no surprise that so many Anbu have gathered at the academy.
Thinking of the possibility of the battle, Neji couldn’t help but get worried.
On the other side, after completing 1000 punches on the wooden stake, Rock Lee wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked Guy, “Guy Sensei… what’s next?”
There was no response from Guy. Although he stood beside Rock Lee, his mind was somewhere else. Rock Lee followed Guy’s gaze and noticed that he was looking at Uchiha Shinichi with a solemn expression. Unaware of the reason why Uchiha Shinichi might come to the academy, and why Guy was looking at him, Rock Lee asked, “Guy Sensei… what happened?”
“Everything is fine… don’t worry about it. Continue your training. Do 10000 push-ups.” Guy absentmindedly gave these instructions, then looked in the direction of the Principal’s Office.
Rock Lee was confused because of Guy’s behavior, more so because Guy wasn’t wearing any weights right now. He couldn’t help but wonder if Guy would be fighting someone today.
…
Teacher’s Lounge
Tied to one of the chairs, Uchiha Shin shouted, “This academy is done for… All of you are done for. Uchiha Clan won’t let go of this humiliation… just you people wait… they will be here soon, and when that happens, everything will be over for you!”
Iruka–the person in charge of keeping a watch over Uchiha Shin–endured his tantrum and looked through the window with an anxious expression.
At this time, the gate of the teacher’s lounge was opened and Itachi walked in. He had some documents in his hands that needed to be processed real quick. So ignoring Shin’s shouting, he took his seat and started to work through the documents.
Seeing Itachi, Shin shouted at him, “Itachi… release me!”
Itachi didn’t even lift his head as he replied, “I have received word, Shinichi will be here soon and he will take you back, so don’t bother me.”
As soon as he heard Itachi’s words, Shinichi laughed out loud, “Shinichi-san will be here? Hahaha… I guess it’s not your lucky day… Heh… Very soon… that son of a bitch Kuroto will come here on his own and untie me… He will also beg for mercy… I want to see him repent before me as I beat the shit out of him!”
Itachi paid no mind to Shin and continued to do what he was doing.
At this time, Iruka walked beside Itachi. He stood there for a while, hesitant to speak anything. Finally, he couldn’t stand it and whispered, “Itachi-san… you… you also work here… you should… also…”
Before Iruka could finish, Itachi raised his head and smiled at him as he said, “Don’t worry Iruka-sensei… with Kuroto-san, everything will be all right… we don’t have to worry too much about this issue, just do what we are supposed to do and leave the rest of the things to him. He always knows what he is doing, just trust him.”
“I… uh… right.” Iruka was left speechless. From the way Itachi spoke, it’s evident that he highly respects Kuroto. Iruka couldn’t understand what was going on.
…
Hokage Building
The news of Uchiha Shinichi’s arrival at the Konoha Academy has already been reported to Hokage.
Currently, Hiruzen is standing on the roof of the Hokage Building with his hands clasped behind his back as he quietly observed the Ninja Academy not too far away.
Elder Koharu, Tsunade-hime, and Jiraiya are on his side. Quietly watching everything happen.
Although Kuroto, Kakashi, Shin, and Shinichi are the main actors, this is actually the first head-to-head confrontation of a cold war between the Hokage Faction and the Uchiha Clan.
The outcome of this confrontation with affect the political climate of Konoha in the coming future, that’s why, everyone is highly nervous.
…
Under everyone’s watch, Shinichi made his way to the principal’s office.
Knock Knock
“Come in.”freewebnøvel.com
As permission was granted, Shinichi walked inside the principal’s office.
Standing on the side, Kakashi put himself on high alert. If a fight were to break out, then he would have to immediately transfer Shinichi out of the village to make sure that none of the lives at the academy were endangered.
Kuroto was unaware of Kakashi’s thoughts. While remaining seated, he looked up, and upon finding that the person who came in was Shinichi, he asked, “Why are you here? I specifically mentioned for your Patriarch to come if he wanted Uchiha Shin back.”
‘Damn it, Kuroto! Why do you have to provoke him?’ thought Kakashi as he waited for Shinichi’s response. On the outside, he looked calm, but inside he wasn’t calm at all. Heck, he had already prepared his Flying Raijin Kunai and was ready to use it at a moment’s notice.
Shinichi laughed awkwardly, and explained, “Well… Patriarch wanted to come… but something came up… so you know…”
