Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

Chapter 469: Prophecy of Death

After sealing the three bags containing 170 million Ryo inside a storage scroll, Fujin soon left the root base.

Fujin did not intend to stay at the new secret Base of Root for very long, nor does he intend to immediately help Danzo for his purpose as that would make others suspicious of Amatsukami’s true purpose. The geezer thinks that Amatsukami just sold it to him, let him think this, all the pieces will be laid out slowly and steadily.

Not long after he had reached a few miles away from the Root Base, Fujin suddenly stopped, turned around, and said to seemingly no one, “This one is wondering as to how long are you going to follow.”

As soon as Fujin’s words fell, a figure walked out from behind a tree not far away, and said with a sly tone, “As one would expect from a member of Amatsukami, very sharp.”

Fujin knew that nothing Orochimaru does would be good, but he has to play his character, so he asked, “Orochi-san, is there something you need from this one?”

Orochimaru leaned against the tree and after folding his arms over his chest, he asked, “I am just curious is all, why does Amatsukami choose Shimura Danzo? I don’t think it’s just about him becoming the Hokage, that’s obviously a ruse, isn’t it? So, I want to know what do you people want to use him for?”

Fujin was surprised by Orochimaru’s question and said with a smile, “And here this one thought that Orochi-san doesn’t care about Konoha anymore.”

Orochimaru said with a smile, “As I mentioned earlier, it’s a little curiosity.”

“Oh, is that so? Since Orochi-san is so interested, then this one will obviously satiate his curiosity.” After a pause, Fujin said again, “But it won’t be so easy, if Orochi-san can win against this one in a fight, then this one will answer all of Orochi-san’s question.”

To be honest, Hyuga Kuroto really wants to use this Fujin Clone to fight against a master like Orochimaru in order to test the true limits of the strength of this Clone in actual combat.

After all, no matter how good Kazekage Puppet is until his Clone body is completed and he gets used to it, the strength he can display in a battle is quite limited, so even Kuroto does not know how strong Fujin Clone is actually.

As Fujin said so, Iron Sand started to appear out of the cuff of his sleeve.

Seeing that Fujin had plans to do something, Orochimaru narrowed his eyes. He is indeed curious why did Amatsukami suddenly come to Danzo, and why would an organization such as Amatsukami support Shimura Danzo’s ambition of becoming the Hokage but when he thought that there are more important things has to take care of, so he immediately shook his head, and said, “Forget it, it is just a trivial curiosity, I have no intention to be hostile to Amatsukami.”

Whoosh

As soon as he finished speaking, Orochimaru instantly disappeared from his position with a Body Flicker.

Fujin who was preparing for a fight squinted a few times because he was taken aback by the sudden action of Orochimaru, and muttered with a suspicious tone, “Huh, Orochi-san withdrew so easily?”

Orochimaru has never been a guy who can be easily subdued, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that he is one of the unruliest guys out there and his curiosity is simply unsatiable, so Fujin was quite certain that Orochimaru would agree to a fight just for the sake of his curiosity. But this time he withdrew so quickly and without even putting any resistance, so Fujin felt that there is really something important Orochimaru is focusing his attention on, any other option doesn’t make sense.

So, no longer caring about Orochimaru, Fujin soon left the forest.

…

The evening of the next day.

After performing his mission for today, Kuroto was sitting in his study; reading the scroll of Scorch Release.

Knock knock knock

Suddenly there was a rapid knock on the main door.

Kuroto quirked his eyebrow again, lately, a lot of people have started to visit him, and he was wondering who is it this time.

After folding back the scroll and putting it in his pocket, Kuroto got up and walked out of his room to open the door.

Opening the door, Kuroto found that the one visiting him this time is none other than the little Miko, wearing a traditional red hakama, a white Kosode, along with a red ribbon that ties her light blond hair that falls down to her waist.

But for some reason, Shion was looking a little upset while Taruho (Shion’s guard) was standing behind her with a smile.

“Oh, Shion-chan… what happened? Why do you look upset?” asked Kuroto after crouching down to Shion’s level.

Shion said quickly, “Kuroto-nii, I… I have a secret I must tell you.”

“Oh, a secret, is it?” Kuroto quirked his eyebrow, then led Shion and Taruho inside his house.

During this period of time, Shion has been living in Yui’s house because Kuroto is too busy to be able to take care of her. Fortunately, enough, Hyuga Yui’s parents liked Shion very much, and treat her as their own daughter. Sandaime and Hyuga Patriarch also gave Shion a very high-level treatment considering her identity as the next generation of Miko of the Land of Demons.

The Land of Demons may have fallen and become a country where criminals from all places gather, but it doesn’t change Shion’s identity as the next Miko. Therefore, her life in Konoha has always been like that of a princess, in fact, people even refer to her as Shion-hime.

After coming to Kuroto’s study, Shion looked around several times with a cautious look, and after repeatedly confirming that no one was around, she came closer to Kuroto and whispered in his ear, “Kuroto-nii, I… I foresaw a death prophecy!”

Kuroto who was sitting casually and waiting to listen to Shion’s ‘little secret’ suddenly changed his expression as soon as he heard Shion’s words, and asked, “Whose death did you foresee?”

Shion immediately said, “It’s the Oba-san who sells Takoyaki.”

Taruho sitting on the side quickly explained, “Kuroto-sama, she is the owner of Tanikawa Takoyaki located near the Konoha Hot Spring.”

‘A civilian…?’ After thinking so, Kuroto asked Shion, “How did the Oba-san die in the Prophecy?”

Shion entered a deep concentration mode, with a small bulge in her mouth and her finger constantly tapping over her cheek, which Kuroto found kind of cute. After a while, Shion said, “She seems to have been buried by the roof, no, not right, she seems to have been smashed by the big wooden door of the shop… no, or maybe, whatever, the picture isn’t very clear as there seems to be some kind of chaos. I can’t remember how exactly did the Oba-san die.”

Kuroto pat her head, and urged, “Try to remember Shion-chan, what else did you foresee in the prophecy?”

Shion held her chin and tried remembering other details, then said, “She died at night, and there seems to be something huge in the sky, moreover, there was also fire lit over the village.”

Kuroto said again, “Something huge, and fire, is it? And anything else, any other details that you noticed?”

“Right, Ichiraku Ramen shop was also destroyed in the prophecy.” Speaking until here, Shion suddenly folded her hand over her chest, and muttered to herself, “Well, I still have a coupon that I haven’t used yet, I must use it before it is destroyed.”

“Ichiraku Ramen Shop is also destroyed?” muttered Kuroto, then thought, ‘Ichiraku Ramen is located at the center area of the Village, if even Ichiraku Ramen is destroyed, it means that the attack overs almost the entire Village.’

“Alright, now tell me, did you tell anyone else about this prophecy?” asked Kuroto.

Shion said, “Yui-nee hasn’t been home for the past few days, so I never had the chance to tell her, as for Fumei Oba-san, and Fumihiro Oji-san (Hyuga Yui’s mother and father respectively), I did not tell them because Taruho told me not to.”

Taruho immediately said, “Kuroto-sama, Shion-sama has not told anyone about the death prophecy except for you and me, as per your instructions.”

As the guard of Shion, Taruho has been specifically instructed by Kuroto to make sure that if Shion were to ever foresee a death, she does not tell anyone.

Listening to Taruho’s words, Kuroto nodded, “Very good, make sure to not tell anyone about it.”

This is for the safety of both Shion and those around her because once this ability is exposed, the people around her will subconsciously stay far away from her, which is not good for her. As for the others, knowing when and how one will die is not a good thing, specifically, it can not be changed.

Just because Uzumaki Naruto can change the destiny of his death does not mean everyone can change the destiny of his death.

Shion asked in a low voice, “But Kuroto-nii, shouldn’t we inform Hokage-sama? In the prophecy, I foresee many people getting injured too.”

Kuroto pat Shion’s head, and said, “I will take care of notifying Hokage-sama, you don’t have to worry about it.”

Kuroto is very clear that Sandaime-sama has been preparing the trap for Akatsuki for a very long time, so he must be prepared for the attack on the Village. Therefore, even if Sandaime is informed about the content of the prophecy, it is unlikely that it would reduce the village’s losses.

After instructing Shion, Kuroto asked Taruho, “Have you participated in the evacuation drills organed by the Village?”

Taruho nodded, “Yes, Kuroto-sama.”

Kuroto nodded, and said in a low voice, “If something happens in the village, your only task is to give priority to the safety of Shion, do not care about others, just make sure that Shion is safe, understand?”

“I understand, Kuroto-sama.” Taruho nodded with a solemn expression.

After the matter of death, prophecy was finished, Kuroto asked Shion about her progress in training. Since Yui is extremely busy so Shion’s training is also affected, but there’s not too much problem because Shion is going to be joining the Academy soon enough.

A while later Shion and Taruho left Kuroto’s house and now him alone in the room, Kuroto muttered, “What could be that something huge in the sky?”

Kuroto probably knew the answer to his own question, and thought, ‘I suppose I should go and see Pakura, although chances are low given his wickedness, perhaps I can get a better understanding of Sandaime-sama’s plan, and also use this opportunity to personally experience Scorch Release from her.’
