Chapter 460: Those are… Horns?
In the past more than a month, Kuroto of course did not focus solely on learning and training the Sennin Mode. When he was not learning the Sennin Mode, Kuroto focused his attention on other things that are on his plate.
In addition to keeping a constant watch over the cultivating Wind Clone, Kuroto also made sure to not slack Karin and Gaara’s training.
Although this point has been repeatedly emphasized by Kuroto, there is no harm in mentioning it again. Kuroto knows that Gaara’s talent is extremely high, coupled with the seriousness, hard work, and determination (very difficult to be expected from a 7-year-old kid) he has been putting in the training in order to live up to Kuroto-sama’s expectations; the speed of his growth is incredible.
Whether it is Sand Control or Taijutsu, Gaara’s progress is incredible in both aspects.
Based on Kuroto’s estimation, the current Gaara’s pure Taijutsu skills are superior to Uchiha Sasuke, and coupled with Sand Control, he should be able to defeat Uchiha Sasuke without breaking a sweat.
The progress of Karin is also quite good, although not as much as Gaara’s given that she has started her formal shinobi training just about a month ago, meanwhile Gaara has already been training for quite some time so there is an obvious difference, but Kuroto would still commend the girl for putting all her efforts into training.
There is also the fact that Karin lacks fierceness and ruthlessness in nature, maybe, the her, in cannon had the ruthlessness because of her continued suffering, but the current her does not have that fierceness ruthlessness in her nature.
However, Kuroto is not too worried about this. Throwing her in the Coliseum of the hidden island near the Land of Lightning would change this nature of her.
Fortunately, enough, the high-intensity daily physical workout has prevented her from gaining weight and stopped her horizontal development.
As for the training of Fuinjutsu, Kuroto has put a stop to that part for the time being. Fuinjutsu is extremely Chakra Consuming and requires a lot of practice. Karin may be an Uzumaki, but she is still a young child and her chakra is not enough to be able to do everything.
Kuroto doesn’t want to burden her too much, else it would stunt her growth, of course, despite all this, she is still regularly gaining theoretical knowledge, in fact, both Karin and Gaara are to improve their understanding of the shinobi world and not remain, ignorant children.
In addition to training, Kuroto would also take the two kids to visit several places, including the city of Daimyo of the Land of Fire, famous beaches of the Land of Lightning, the capital of the Samurai Nation, the Land of Iron, to the hot springs of the Land of hot Water, the purpose is to educate them about the world by real experience as well as not make them socially awkward.
Of course, Kuroto would make sure that that the three of them are properly disguised, else it could be troublesome.
Besides these visits Kuroto would also tell them stories; he has narrated the entire Fairy Tail, Hunter X Hunter, the One Piece up to the point he knew, Bleach, Code Geass as well as several other stories in order to keep their minds imaginative too.
These things are not that unusual for ordinary children, but for Gaara and Karin who have lived a tough life, such experiences are a gate to an all-new world.
On the other hand, the progress of the Cultivation of Wind Clone under the stimulation of Chakra also went quite smoothly this time. The two Wind Clones that have been cultivated by Kuroto were successfully completed under the continuous stimulation of Chakra.
Looking at the two clones immersed in Nutrition Solution inside the large Incubation Capsules, in front of him, Kuroto for a moment had a dazed look on his face.
Perhaps it’s because of the difficulty Kuroto faced while cultivating the Fire Nature Clone, it left a deep psychological shadow on him. So, now that he is looking at the two Wind Clones that grew quite smoothly, Kuroto feels a bit overwhelmed. In fact, the two clones were even completed in less than two months.
“Sigh, it’s really strange that I am feeling a bit shocked at my success.” Muttered Kuroto then converged the thoughts in his mind and focused on observing the two Wind Nature Clones.
The appearance of the two Clones is very similar and can be said to be a shadow of Kuroto’s own appearance, the only difference to be seen is in their temperament. While Kuroto’s own external temperament appears to be quite gentle (which it isn’t actually), the temperament of the two clones seems to be quite cold and dangerous type.
Additionally, the hair color of the two clones is also different from Kuroto’s brown hair color. The color of the two Clones is greyish-white, similar to Kimimaro’s hair color.
After Marking the two Clones as Clone-A and Clone-B, Kuroto started to record their stats, and also compare the differences between the two Clones.
But before he could begin, Kuroto frowned slightly as something caught Kuroto’s attention.
Kuroto found that on the forehead of Clone-A, there is are two extra bulges, or to say more exactly, there are extra protrusions on both sides of the forehead.
“Those are?” muttered Kuroto with a doubtful expression, “Horns?”
Kuroto can be sure that at least two days ago, there were no such inconspicuous protrusions on the forehead of the Clone-A.
Doubtful, Kuroto activated the Byakugan, the veins protruded and Byakugan was instantly activated.
Kuroto looked at those protrusions carefully with his Byakugan and he had to admit that there really are bones protruding outside from the forehead on both sides, “They really are horns.”
But this confirmation did not ease Kuroto’s doubts, rather, Kuroto’s frown deepened.
The horns on the forehead are a dominant trait of the members of the Otsutsuki Clan. And in Kuroto’s knowledge, apart from the members of the Otsutsuki Clan, only the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers have a pair of horns.
It is said that the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers have the blood of Rikudo Sennin flowing in their bodies.
When swallowed by Kyuubi, the two brothers managed to survive for two weeks in the stomach of Kyuubi by eating his flesh and were later spit out Kyuubi.
And what’s amazing is that after eating the flesh of Kyuubi, not only the two brothers did not die, but in fact, they also managed to gain a small fraction of Kyuubi’s power.
The fact that they did not die immediately after eating the flesh of Kyuubi alone is amazing, after all, there was an instance when someone from Kumo tried to swallow the flesh of Hachibi, and he died.
So, the fact, that both Kinkaku and Ginkaku are related to Rikudo Sennin can not be ruled out.
Anyway, except for the true Otsutsuki Clan, and Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers, nobody seems to have horns on their forehead, not even the members of the Otsutsuki Clan on the Moon, at least not under normal circumstances. A single horn on Toneri’s forehead does appear when he enters the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, but that’s just a horn made out of Chakra.
As for Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Obito, the two of them also had horns on their foreheads, but it was after they became the Jinchuriki of Juubi, in normal condition, neither of the two had horns.
Realizing what this meant, Kuroto muttered, “It seems that some kind of mutation has happened due to the combination of Hyuga and Kaguya bloodline, as a result, the body seems to have produced a pair of white horns.”
But whether it is the Hyuga Clan or the Kaguya Clan, both of them are the descendants of Otsutsuki Hamura, so the appearance of horns is not a bad thing. It only means that due to the combining of the two bloodlines, the DNA combination of the Clone-A became quite closer to Hamura, so Kuroto estimates that the strength of the Clone-A must be exceptionally high.
