Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

Chapter 784 - Failure is the mother of Success!

“For Kuroto-sama who means everything to me, I am willing to do anything, even if that means sacrificing my own life to bring you back to life.” – said Karin as the hesitation on her face changed into determination.

Hearing her words and looking at her expression, Kuroto nodded lightly, “Thank you… however…” he then turned around and said to her, “Don’t be so hasty in answering me, we still have a lot of time, therefore, I want you to think about it deeply before giving me your answer.”

Karin shook her head as she put her hand on her chest and said, “I have already made my decision, I don’t need to think abo–”

Kuroto interrupted Karin before she could complete her words.

“No, even if you have made up your mind, and even if you think that you don’t need to think about it more, I still want you to think about it!” he said and added after a pause, “I know you are not an ignorant girl, however, you don’t understand what death is like… and what it is like to face it when it knocks on your door when you are not completely ready. Therefore, deeply consider your choice before giving me your answer.”

Karin was startled by Kuroto’s words and lowered her head.

While keeping his back towards the young girl, he added, “You don’t need to feel pressured. True, you are my best option, but this doesn’t mean that you are the only option that I have. Even if your answer is a no, it won’t have any major impact on my plan, so take your time and seriously think about it.”

Kuroto doesn’t want to repeat the mistakes of Uchiha Madara, all the backhands he left behind were pretty useless. Nagato didn’t follow the path Madara intended for him, and Obito didn’t complete the responsibility that Madara assigned him before his death. If not for Black Zetsu, Madara wouldn’t have revived in the Shinobi World.

He doesn’t want to experience a similar situation as that reckless Uchiha Madara; therefore, he has been upfront with Karin about all this and didn’t hide anything. And this is exactly why even if she has made up her mind, he didn’t accept her answer right away and gave her time to think about it.

Besides, there is also a possibility that Karin won’t have to die.

Having a deeper understanding of Yin-Yang, as well as the ‘Creation of All Things’, Kuroto feels that the cost of bringing someone back to life may not necessarily be the caster’s own life.

Just think about it a little… after all, ‘Rinne Tensei’ is just a Ninjutsu, and if it’s a Ninjutsu, then the cost of using it must be Chakra, how come the caster’s own life comes into the picture?

This is not some exchange of life, it’s just a Ninjutsu, so the cost must not necessarily be the caster’s own life.

Take Nagato’s example for instance.

Nagato revived all the shinobi he killed in Konoha by using ‘Rinne Tensei no Jutsu’. If the cost of reviving someone is one’s own life, then how come Nagato revived so many and only sacrificed a single life?

This doesn’t make any sense. After all, if the deal was… a life for a life, then for reviving so many, he should have sacrificed equivalent lives, right? But he didn’t! His own life was more than enough.

So, if it’s not a life for a life, then is it the weight of life?

But this isn’t possible. True, Nagato was important, but Kakashi was equally if not more important than Nagato, not to mention other Konoha Shinobi. Therefore, it cannot be the weight of life either.

Since it’s not a life for a life, and it’s not the weight of life either, there is only one option left, and that is the requirement of Chakra.

This makes the most sense since Rinne Tensei no Jutsu is a ninjutsu, and a Ninjutsu requires chakra.

Now the question is if the requirement is Chakra, how come Nagato died?

The answer is very simple.

Nagato didn’t have enough Chakra reserves to bring back all the people, so he used his life force to make up for it, and that resulted in his death.

Although this is just a conjecture, Kuroto feels that he is right on this one.

And if his conjecture is correct, it means that Karin won’t have to exchange her soul in order to revive him, as long as she has enough chakra, she should stay alive.

This is why, even if Karin denies sacrificing herself, Kuroto’s plan won’t be affected to a certain degree.

‘But I have already made up my mind!’ she thought with a firm expression as she looked at Kuroto’s back.

True she doesn’t understand what death is like, however, she understands what is it like to lose your loved ones and never see them again. She lost her mother at a very young age, and if not for Kuroto to bring her here and give her a new life, perhaps she would have been the same as her mother. For Karin, Kuroto is everything, her master, her teacher, and her father, so no matter what, she doesn’t want to lose him, nor does she want anyone who is dear to Kuroto to feel the same sense of loss she once felt, therefore, she is determined to sacrifice herself if it’s for Kuroto’s sake.

Even if Kuroto has told her to consider once again, her mind has already been made up and it won’t change no matter what!

Unaware of Karin’s thoughts, Kuroto sent her back and focused on other things.

“Well, I suppose using this clone should be fine.” Said Kuroto as he took out one of the unselected Earth Clones whose gender was male.

Since he has already decided which clone to cultivate and use for the Earth Chakra Nature, the other Earth Clones are pretty useless. Kuroto wants to use these useless Earth Clones to test the Yin-Seal.

After transferring his soul into the Earth Clone, he slowly got up from the operating bench and got used to the new body. Making sure that all the chakra nerves were working properly, Kuroto unfolded the scroll of the Yin-seal that he redesigned and started to seal it on this body.

*Vomit*

He coughed out a lot of blood and collapsed on the floor.

He was lucky to have transferred his soul to another clone body just before collapsing lest he would have died.

Now in another Clone body, and have identified one of the mistakes, the first thing he did was to revise the seal, then he looked at the damaged clone and muttered to himself, “Using these clones is really the best idea, if not, my main body would have been damaged irreparably.”

He was really glad to have so many clones to test the Yin-seal until it is perfected.

With such intention, Kuroto reattempted the modified Yin-seal.

But the second try also resulted in failure.

He wasn’t disappointed or frustrated because of the failure, and continued reattempting and testing the seal with a single thought in his mind, ‘Failure is the mother of success!’
