Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

Underground Prison Dungeon, Hyuga Clan

Hizashi’s face became gloomy as he looked at the unconscious guard in the wheelchair. He never expected that Aoki of all people–who is disabled–would choose to defect.

To Hizashi the defection of a member of the branch family is simply unbelievable. Let alone defection, the members of the branch family generally don’t even rebel since it’s of no use because from the moment they are marked with the ‘Caged Bird,’ their fate is sealed. It doesn’t matter how far they escape from the Clan, the members of the main family can still punish them or execute them for their crimes.

But something that Hizashi never expected to happen actually happened.

Standing beside Hizashi, Kuroto stayed silent as he observed the surroundings, hoping to find some kind of clue that will lead him to Aoki.

After dealing with the aftermath of the battle with the puppets, Kuroto had just returned to the Hyuga Clan and was on his way to Hizashi’s house as he had some questions for the man, but before Kuroto could ask anything, he noticed Hizashi going somewhere in panic. Curious, Kuroto asked, and learnt that one of the members of the branch family who was imprisoned in the Underground Dungeon Prison had defected not long ago.

Hizashi informed Kuroto that not long Aoki had a major conflict with one of the elders of the main family, and was imprisoned in the Underground Dungeon Prison for his crime. This information, coupled with his disability, and his sudden defection made Kuroto realize that Aoki is the traitor of the Hyuga Clan that he has been looking for so long.

Although the strength brought by the Giant Tenseigan has made the traitor arrogant, despite the arrogance, Aoki has been extremely cautious and has done everything to keep his identity a secret. Before Kuroto wondered how come the traitor was trying to hide his identity despite being arrogant of the newfound strength but now that he has figured out who the traitor is everything makes sense.

Aoki is disabled, therefore he has to be extremely cautious, and he is compelled to hide behind the scenes.

However, he was a step too late to realize this and the man seems to have left Konoha making Kuroto a little anxious.

Aoki claimed that he has the power to break the ‘Caged Bird’, Kuroto doesn’t doubt Aoki’s claim because he believes that this is indeed possible, which means, Aoki can really defect without having to worry about the execution.

But this result is not favourable for Kuroto, now he doesn’t know where to find Aoki.

Something has been bothering Kuroto for while and it’s about Aoki’s sudden defection. Kuroto couldn’t figure out why Aoki gave up everything in the village and defected, ‘Did he think that I have figured out his identity? No that’s not possible… and he should know this. To be honest, if Aoki hadn’t defected, I wouldn’t have figured out his identity despite having interacted with him several times already, and he should know this… In my opinion, his defection just doesn’t make any sense, there is something odd about this. Hmm… Is it possible that Aoki’s defection is just a distraction?’

Although Kuroto’s intuition told him that Aoki is the traitor, he can’t deny the possibility that the traitor is someone else, and Aoki is just a distraction that the real traitor has used in order to interfere with the investigation. After all, Aoki defected all of a sudden and for no reason, it didn’t make sense… it is as if he is afraid and running away from a powerful enemy… which made Kuroto a little suspicious. Even if Aoki is disabled, he doesn’t have to be afraid. There is no reason to be afraid. So then why?

While Kuroto was busy analyzing Aoki’s inexplicable behavior, Hizashi said with a sullen expression, “Aoki’s defection can not be hidden from them, I have no choice but to report it to the Patriarch.”

Kuroto nodded, “Yes, please do… I shall inform Hokage-sama of this matter as well, just in case.”

Hizashi nodded, “Very well Kuroto-kun, do what you see fit, but please make sure that you don’t offend the elders again. The situation within the clan will become more complicated than it already is.”

“I will try not to.” Said Kuroto lightly, then left the Prison Dungeon.

…

After his escape from the Konoha, Aoki flew West and only stopped once he had crossed the border of the Land of Fire.

Finding a small stream, Aoki landed at the bank and sighed, ‘Thankfully I can fly, else I would be in danger.’

Since he has obtained the Tenseigan of the Hyuga Clan, Aoki’s disability no longer poses any problem in traveling. He can lift himself using ‘Shinra Tensei’ and then fly anywhere he wants using the power of Tenseigan.

But the problem is, it hasn’t been very long since he took control of the Tenseigan of the Hyuga Clan, so his proficiency is not good enough, therefore, he was already feeling tired.

As he was sitting on a piece of rock and wondering what to do now, suddenly, Aoki noticed a young man, probably fourteen or fifteen years old walking towards him. Noting the features of the young man Aoki’s eyes shrank.

If it had been a normal young man, Aoki would have ignored the person, however, his characteristic eye made Aoki vigilant. They were Byakugan. What’s more surprising is the clean forehead of the young man. There was no sign of the ‘Caged Bird’ cursed seal on the young man’s forehead, meaning even if he was a member of the Hyuga Clan, he has to be someone from the main family.

However, Aoki knew better, he didn’t even consider the possibility that the young man is from the Hyuga Clan and exclaimed, “I knew you would notice my presence after the previous commotion in Konoha, however, I didn’t expect that you would find me so soon and come in person in order to deal with me, Yama!”

“Yama?!” the young man tilted his head in confusion. Wondering what the old man is talking about.

He was close by and noticed this old man a while ago with his Byakugan. Since the old man was surrounded by familiar Chakra fluctuations, therefore, the young man decided to come here and check out the situation. But for the words of the old man, the young man had no idea.

Looking at the confused expression on the young man’s face, Aoki sneered, “Stop pretending in front of me, you can’t fool me… I can sense familiar chakra fluctuations from you… You tracked me all the way here from the Village so quietly that I couldn’t even notice. No one is capable of accomplishing such a feat in the entire Shinobi World, the only ones who can do this are people on the moon and without a doubt you are him. Though, I never expected that you would be so young Yama!”

Aoki is aware of the existence of distant relatives on the moon. He learned of their existence from the information he received from the Tenseigan and also learned that the Tenseigan was created by the Clan in order to deter these distant relatives on the moon.

After learning about these distant relatives living on the moon, Aoki immediately equated them to the Amatsukami Organization which has been haunting the Shinobi World for a while now.

In Aoki’s opinion, only these distant relatives on the moon can be so mysterious and unpredictable that no matter how much effort people of the shinobi world put to search for any information about them, they found nothing. Moreover, most of Yama’s abilities appear to be very similar to the ones he has gained after getting Tenseigan further confirming his doubts.

And it’s entirely possible that a few members of other clans also live on the moon, explaining the existence of Homusubi, Fujin and the others in the Amatsukami Organization.

This inference of Aoki is the reason why he chose to defect after creating chaos in Konoha not long ago. Aoki believes that Amatsukami must have a few eyeliners in Konoha, and the moment he used those puppets, they must have identified him and reported him to Yama.

He knows that he isn’t yet ready to fight the Amatsukami, therefore, he has to run away from Konoha in order to avoid being caught by them.
