Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan Chapter 4

A week later, at the main entrance of the village.

A young girl is carefully organizing things for Kuroto.

From the girl's unique eyes, it can be understood that she is also a member of the Hyuga clan like Kuroto, and from her appearance, she is of a similar age as Kuroto.

The girl's brows are wrinkled indicating that she seems to be worried about something.

Kuroto, who was looking at the remote Hokage Rock, smiled and said, “Don't worry, it's just a normal change of defence. There won't be much danger, especially in the current peaceful period.”

The girl nodded slightly, then took out a new pair of goggles from her waist pouch and handed it to Kuroto.

Kuroto glanced at the girl, did not say much, and just put the goggles into his waist pouch.

In fact, from a very young age, Kuroto has worn goggles like Obito, except that the goggles he bought had darker lenses, kind of like sunglasses.

His purpose in doing so was not only to protect his eyes but also to be able to hide his identity as a Hyuga on the battlefield to not get targeted for being a sensor ninja.

The other reason was to cover up The Tenseigan eyes he would be awakening in the future. After all, in terms of appearance alone both Byakugan and The Tenseigan are too different.

The girl is undoubtedly worried that the lens of his old goggles might have broken or will possibly break and it would be very difficult for him to buy a new one while patrolling on the border of the Fire Nation, so she bought a new pair and gave it to Kuroto as a spare.

At this point, a middle-aged ninja not far away waved his hand and signaled to everyone: “The time is up, we are setting off.”

Hearing this, patted the girl on the shoulder: Yui, I'm going, don't worry too much about me, maybe I will be back soon.”

The girl's name is Hyuga Yui. Although Yui nodded to Kuroto's words but the clear signs of worry on her face couldn't Remain hidden.

Finally, Yui took one last look at the Hokage Rock at the far end and went back to the Hyuga clan grounds.

This time Konoha village has again lost its top pillar strength. Orochimaru, a Sanin defected, and Jiraya another of the three Sanin was responsible for following Orochimaru's trails. Therefore, Konoha was the biggest loser in Orochimaru's defection. So far, all the three famous Konoha Sanin that were the backbone of the village back in the second Ninja War have left the village!

Although Orochimaru lost Village's support, but he also got rid of the constraints of the village.

Shimura Danzo definitely had the biggest gain; as he incorporated most of the forces that were earlier loyal to Orochimaru into his roots. Kuroto even suspects that Danzo was able to obtain some of the results of Orochimaru's experiments on the human body and would have probably started doing some prep work to transplant Sharingan and Hashirama's cells onto himself.

But all these losses and gains were not of much importance for Kuroto now.

The village leaders have probably reached a consensus to send all the shinobi's that were loyal to Orochimaru and haven't been incorporated into the Roots like Kuroto himself will be replaced at the various frontiers.

Simply put they intend to send these Shinobi's away from the village; as for what exactly is the purpose of doing so not yet known.

Coming to the team leader's side, Kuroto took a glance at the members of the team he is currently part of.

Including him, there are a total of twelve ninjas subdivided into 3 squads, with three squad captains each, responsible for leading the squad. One thing to be noted is that neither of the squad leaders was part of Orochimaru's subordinates while all the 9 other members of the team were under Orochimaru's authority.

This team combination itself made Kuroto quite alert regarding what he might be facing in this task?

The destination of the team's trip was a border post at the junction of the Country of Fire and the Country of Wind.

As soon as he left the village; his guard was on full alert as if standing in a war zone.

This is not him being overly cautious or something but a profound lesson he learned just a few months ago when he was attacked less than 10 miles away from the village. The entire team that escorted the wounded back to the village from the front line suffered heavy casualties

This is not a fuss about Hyuga, but he had a profound lesson. Just a few months ago, he was attacked less than ten miles from the village. The entire team that escorted the wounded back to the village from the front line suffered heavy casualties. If not for the fact that support from the village arrived in time otherwise, he would have already been buried six-feet under the ground with a sold name on the memorial tablet.

The cruel ninja war has taught Kuroto many things and these habits are difficult to change for some time even if the war is now over.

And Kuroto wasn't the only one with such changes. The other ninjas in the team also raised their guard to full alert as soon as the team left the village.

Kuroto glanced at the figure walking at the end of the team and sighed slightly.

If there is anyone in the Konoha Village who isn't going to believe that Orochimaru defected then it is Mitarashi Anko no doubt it.

Overnight she became a prisoner from a Sanin's disciple; someone expected to be the pillar strength of the village in the future. After such long imprisonment, she was also dispatched to the border together with Kuroto, completely far away from the power center of the village.

From her hollow eyes and sluggish expression; it is not difficult to deduce that she is still not able to accept that her teacher, one of the three Sannin, actually defected from the village.

She had her faith in her teacher collapsed which is something that may not be restored in her lifetime.

Taking away his gaze from Anko, Koroto took a close look at the other ninjas in the team.

In the team, only the team leader should be a Jonin while the remaining eleven including Hyuga Kuroto and Mitarashi Anko are all Chunin. It can be considered that this team has quite high overall strength as long as they don't encounter an ambush squad consisting of several jonins, which is least likely to happen.

Besides, the war has recently ended, so the probability of an enemy Shinobi appearing in Fire Nation is very slim.

Sure enough, as Kuroto expected, the team safely arrived at the border post without facing much trouble along the way.

After arrival at the border post, the twelve-member team was officially separated into three squads. Kuroto was part of team Hyuga Kuroto, Mitarashi Anko, and Inuzuka Oda (some unknown member of the Inuzuka Clan known for their nin-ken).

The Country of Fire and the Country of Wind are not bordered by small nations like the country of rivers or the country of rain, etc.

The border post where Kuroto is located is responsible for guarding the border of about 40 miles. On the one end of the guard post is the edge of the forest, and on the other end is the endless sea of sand.

For now, Kuroto will be having a boring life of patrolling in the desert.

Time flies,

2 months have passed in the blink of an eye.

All news about the village was cut off. Currently, Kuroto was isolated at the desert border with only daily tasks of patrolling, garrison work, and resting all day for most of his free time.

During this period, he could feel that the team leader Jonin had been monitoring the nine squad members who were under Orochimaru's command. Therefore, Kuroto made sure not to perform anything that would lead to any kind of problem for him.

He secretly speculated that such surveillance would not last very long.

Even a village-like Konoha cannot manage to keep hundreds of ninjas under constant surveillance for a very long duration of time, so there must be a period for monitoring.

And sure enough, not long after, the village sent three more chunin to replace the squad captains and team-leader.

At first, Kuroto thought that this was because the village had lifted the surveillance on themand after some more analysis of the three newly arrived he concluded that these three were highly skilled and had a ruthless bloodthirsty aura around them!

'These three are definitely not some ordinary Chunin.'

Kuroto soon concluded that either they were part of Anbu under Hokage or maybe from the Root under Shimura Danzo.

'Does an ordinary Border Post like this one needs three Anbu members or Roots members'?

The answer is self -evident, so Kuroto's thought spread. He wasn't aware of what exactly happened back at the village, in the past two months, but he certainly understood that danger has come.

Time does not wait for anyone, The Tenseigan awakening plan much be initiated immediately…
