Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan Chapter 79

Shisui didn't expect the matter to become so serious, now he was sort of panicked.

He always felt that he was doing the right thing, and those crazy people are the wrong ones; but after listening to Kuroto-San's words, he is starting to realize that by confessing about his Mangekyou to Sandaime-Sama and Danzo, he actually dragged the Uchiha one step closer to their doom.

Shisui bowed towards Kuroto and said sincerely, “Kuroto-San, please trust me, I would never use Kotoamatsukami on my companions, please believe me!”

Kuroto shook his head, “Shisui, it has nothing to do with whether I believe you or not. In the face of someone was who has the ability to modify other's will at any time, no matter who the person may be, they will feel an instinctual fear and suspicious of you, even if it is me!”

Shisui was a little lost now, “But I…”

“Regardless of whether you are loyal to the village, whether you are an upright and kind person, as long you have that ability, you will be considered a threat by others.” Taking a short pause to let Shisui digest his words, Kuroto continued, “In the end, it is the technique Kotoamatsukami that makes others too uncomfortable to accept it so easily.”

By now Shisui realizes the crux of the matter, so he hurriedly asked, “Kuroto-San, then… is there some way for me to help the Uchiha?”

Listening to Shisui's question, Kuroto put one hand on his chin, in a thinking posture, and after a little consideration, he said, “For the time being, I have no good method to help you out, but you better not do anything unnecessary. Let the peace talks between Konoha and Cloud get completed, which will take some time, and the village won't risk doing something to the Uchiha in this period. As for the future, give me some time to think about an effective way to help out with the Uchiha problem.”

Shisui's personal problem isn't that big of an issue, Kotoamatsukami is indeed worrisome, that is the reason it will be difficult for him to be trusted by the advisors of the Konoha Council, but he will have to make do with that.

After all, who told him to just go out there and confess about his Mangekyou and its abilities to Danzo and Sandaime-sama so brazenly.

Following Kuroto's assurance, Shisui nodded silently.

Kuroto thought a little about Obito hidden behind the scenes and doesn't have very good intentions against the village, so he decided to warn Shisui about it a little, “One more thing Shisui, remember to pay close attention to any suspicious people near your clan.”

“What do you mean by suspicious people, Kuroto-San?”

“During the Kyuubi's rebellion, although I wasn't in the village, the information I have collected so far indicates that the Kyuubi was indeed controlled by the Sharingan!”

Shisui's face suddenly sank, “Kuroto-San, do you really suspect that the Uchiha planned Kyuubi's Rebellion?”

“It's not about whether I suspect or not, The Kyuubi was controlled by the Sharingan, so the suspicion inevitably falls upon the Uchiha.” Glancing at Shisui, who seems to be getting more and more depressed, Kuroto nodded to himself and continued to induce, “Besides, it doesn't necessarily have to be an Uchiha from the village, you get what I mean!?”

Shisui suddenly lifted his head in shock.

He has heard about some of the Uchiha that went missing or left Konoha for no reason. Among them, the name of Uchiha Madara, who founded Konoha together with Shodaime-Sama, was the loudest one.

If the descendants of these 'Missing' Uchiha have been left outside the village, then it would make sense if they have a Sharingan.

“Does that mean there is an outsider with Uchiha's blood, who planned the Kyuubi's rebellion?” – Shisui asked.

“It could be, I am not too sure either, but it wouldn't hurt to be cautious, right?” Kuroto said.

Shisui nodded, he has always felt that Kuroto-San is trustworthy and what he said makes logical sense too.

After the two chatted for a while longer, Shisui left.

Looking at Shisui's figure walking away, Kuroto shook his head in melancholy.

As the most gifted ninja within the Uchiha, Shisui is simply impeccable in every aspect, it's just that he is too immature at understanding and figuring out people's hearts.

His kindness, undying loyalty, and habit of naively trusting others became the cause of his death.

Shaking his head in sadness, Kuroto walked away.

Hokage Building, Council Meeting Room.

Sandaime-Sama was discussing the matters of the peace talks with the Cloud Village with other advisors of the Council, mentioning the secret mission of Anbu Team-11, he lightly tapped his desk.

Hatake Kakashi, who was waiting outside the meeting room, walked inside upon hearing the tapping sound and explained the details of exactly what he knew, about the entire process and events in completing their task, from the time of leaving Konoha to the time of returning to Konoha.

After Hayate Kakashi was finished with the explanation, Sandaime-Sama said indifferently: “Alright that would be enough, withdraw!”

Kakashi nodded respectfully and left the meeting room.

Utatane Koharu said after Kakashi left, “So, that was really the case huh? Team-11 harassing Cloud's transportation line slowed down their offensive as well as forced the Nibi's Jinchuriki to retreat at the rear? Team-11 has done a great job, they are heroes of Konoha!”

Mitokade Homura also said in praise, “Well, they should be promoted and rewarded appropriately for their work.”

However, Shimura Danzo had other thoughts as he suddenly said, “You received this report? The news I received from the information network of Root tells the other story!”

Not only Mitakade Homura and Utatane Koharu; but even Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo, waiting for his explanation.

Being the center of attention, Danzo said coldly, “Cloud Village slowed down their offensive less because the Team-11 harassed their transportation line but more because of the heavy losses they suffered at the rear. According to the secret intelligence, more than three hundred Cloud ninjas, including several elite Jonin, died overnight, which prompted even the Raikage to leave the village in search of the enemy responsible.

As far as my sources indicate, the Team-11's name came for being responsible for this work!”

“What…!?”

Advisor Koharu and Homura looked at each other in shock.

When Sandaime heard of this, he suddenly remembered that Uchiha Shisui took the initiative to confess to him about awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan, and his face suddenly sank, the tobacco pipe fell and he was left speechless.

However, without waiting for Hiruzen to recover, Danzo stood up and asked, “Why didn't your Team-11 report of this? What made them hide such a glorious feat that is worthy of high rewards?”

Utatane Koharu asked Hiruzen seriously, “Team-11 has that kind of combat power?”

For the four members of Team-11 to be able to wipe out more than three hundred cloud ninjas overnight, they must have at least one person with Kage-Class combat power.

Sandaime was left with no choice and stated, “Uchiha Shisui awakened the legendary Mangekyou Sharingan!”

As soon as she heard this, Koharu was surprised: “That power? Did Kagami's grandchild actually awaken it?”

Homura whispered to himself, “Wouldn't he become another Uchiha Madara?”

However, Danzo didn't stop, “Hiruzen, you seem to be hiding something!”

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced murderously at Danzo.

However, Danzo wasn't afraid, and said, “Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyou allows him to cast the highest level of genjutsu called 'Kotoamatsukami', which can modify the will of others subtly without making them realize! In other words, he can make anyone into his puppet without even letting the puppet know of it!”

“What!!?” If until now they were shocked, now they were panicked.

Danzo smiled coldly as he said, “Letting an Uchiha have such a dangerous technique in his possession is too harmful, I propose to take immediate coercive measures against Uchiha Shisui!”

In the brief shock and panic, Homura immediately said, “Agreed!”

Sandaime-Sama shook his head in denial, “Uchiha Shisui is the bridge between the village and the Uchiha. If we take any coercive measures against him, it will only stimulate the Uchiha Clan. Now the peace talks with the Cloud village are in progress, so at this critical moment if any turmoil breaks out, the consequences will be unimaginable.”

There was no reply from Utatane Koharu, she remained silent the entire time as if she was mulling over something.

However, Danzo ignored her, and since he expected Hiruzen Sarutobi to say this, so he didn't force it and said, “Then put Uchiha Shisui on the monitoring list, and the 'Root' will be responsible for this task!”

After pondering for a while, Sarutobi finally nodded.

Danzo was very satisfied by Hokage's concession, and he suddenly remembered the scene where Special Jonin Hyuga Kuroto refused his solicitation by refusing to join the 'Root', so he said again, “That's not enough Hiruzen, Team-11 concealed information, their loyalty is questionable, I propose to list all the members of Team-11 under monitoring…”
