Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
Chapter 853 “I am Sorry, But I Refuse!”Konoha Hospital
Looking at the figure of Kakashi wrapped up in bandages from head to toe, Kuroto shook his head, and asked, “Was it worth it? And did I not warn you to be careful and not underestimate him? Yet you…”
Kakashi sighed, “I know… but I really couldn’t think of anything else at that time.”
He understands that he really underestimated Uchiha Patriarch.
Precisely why he risked his life in order to defeat Uchiha Fugaku. He had no other option… Kakashi believed that only by defeating Fugaku in front of the entire Konoha would they be able to restrain the ambitions of the Uchiha Clan.
He tried his hardest, and put everything into that fight… but he failed.
And now it is more difficult to stop the Uchiha Clan.
Looking at Kakashi’s guilty expression, Kuroto sighed, “Anyway, what’s done is done, there is no changing it now… so don’t think about it too much, focus on recovering.”
After a while of silence, Kakashi spoke, “Kuroto, you are the only person left… You must do something!”
Kuroto chuckled, “Huh me? The deal was to defeat Shisui… Uchiha Fugaku is another thing. Of course, I don’t mind working on Uchiha Patriarch, however, the price will increase…”Kakashi assumed that Kuroto was just teasing him, and shook his head as he spoke in a serious tone of voice, “Kuroto, this is no time for that… you have to cough-cough… do…”
“Fine… fine… I will do what I can. You don’t need to think too much. I believe Sandaime-sama will have some solution.” Spoke Kuroto with a smile.
In fact, Kuroto had already foreseen this situation. And he has also thought of a few solutions to solve this situation… but of course, he won’t be discussing these things with Kakashi.
Kakashi nodded, “Hmm.” And sighed, “But still… this is really troubling… more so for you… it would be very difficult to win against him even for you.”
“Did I not have a way against Shisui, I believe that I will be able to figure out something against the Uchiha Patriarch too.” Spoke Kuroto with a reassuring smile.
In fact, if it’s Kuroto, even without Tenseigan, he has several methods of defeating Fugaku. He has Senjutsu, then he also has Toyotama (Ryuumyaku). Besides, Kuroto doesn’t believe Fugaku would have as deep an understanding of Mangekyou Sharingan as him, there are a lot of ways he can use to win… Especially now that he is aware of both the powers of Fugaku’s Mangekyou Sharingan.
Although most people would find it difficult to deal with Amaterasu, not him since he knows how to deal with those flames, so overall, he is not that worried about the fight… if he has to win, then he can easily win… the only problem is… he will have to expose his strengths.
‘Forget it… Sandaime-sama has still not said anything, so I won’t be doing anything for now… let’s wait for his call.’ thought Kuroto.
…
After a while, Kuroto left Kakashi’s ward.
In addition to visiting Kakashi to check up on his condition, Kuroto had one more purpose behind coming to meet him. He wanted to use this opportunity and collect Kakashi’s tissues.
The development and Cultivation of Earth Chakra Nature Clone is almost complete, so he has to plan ahead. Naturally, now he has to think of the next clone he is going to create.
There are only two Chakra Natures left… Lightning and Yang.
It cannot be Yang Clone yet since Kuroto is still understanding the Yang Chakra Nature and experimenting with Hashirama Cells, he is not confident in successfully developing the Yang Clone at this point, maybe in the future, but not now… so the next Clone has to be the Lightning Chakra Nature Clone.
Normally, Kuroto would have chosen someone like Darui with a Lightning-based Kekkei Genkai, since that way it would be easier to develop and cultivate the Lightning clone to the optimum strength and state, however, he doesn’t need to worry about these things now.
Over the course of the past decade, he has made continuous progress in the field of Cloning, at the same time, he has rich experience in developing Kekkei Genkai and Kekkei Tōta from scratch, therefore, he doesn’t need to necessarily take cells of someone with Kekkei Genkai.
Kuroto believes that as long as he is given enough time, he will be able to develop most of the Kekkei Genkai from scratch. Of course, the likes of Sharingan, Byakugan, and Rinnegan are not counted as they are exceptions, and cannot be learnt.
So, anyway… what he is trying to say is that as long as he gets the cells of someone with high affinity towards a Chakra Nature, he will be able to create the kind of Clone he wants.
And going by this standard, there are a lot of targets whose cells Kuroto can use… For instance, Kakashi, and Sasuke in Konoha… Then Yondaime Raikage and Darui from Kumogakure along with many Kumogakure Shinobi with high Lightning Chakra affinity.
It’s easier to obtain Kakashi and Sasuke’s cells for him… However, he did not want to choose Sasuke’s cells. For one, Sasuke is the reincarnation of Otsotsuki Indra, and Kuroto has no intention of messing with him… For another, his fire Clone… that is Tsukihi Clone already carries the blood of Uchiha. If he creates another Clone of Uchiha descent… the concentration of Yin Chakra would become too high and the balance he wants to maintain will be disturbed.
Therefore, by process of elimination, Kakashi is the better choice.
It's not that he cannot obtain the cells of Raikage or Darui… but that would be troublesome, and he doesn’t want to do anything too troublesome at this time. Besides, Kakashi is already a very good choice since he has a very good affinity for Lightning Chakra.
But of course, even if Kuroto has chosen not to take the cells of Raikage, this doesn’t mean that he is not paying attention to Raikage, the only difference is, rather than his cells, Kuroto is planning to steal his Jutsu… the very same Jutsu that gives him his strength… the infamous Lightning Chakra Mode.
There are three factors responsible for Raikage’s strength, physical strength, Lightning Chakra affinity, and the mastery of Lightning Chakra Armor.
Kuroto doesn’t need to worry about the aspect of physical strength… his physical strength is much higher than Raikage, and Kakashi’s cells have the necessary affinity for the Lightning Chakra… the only thing that he needs to pay attention to is the Lightning Chakra Armor used by Raikage.
As long as the third requirement is fulfilled, he would be able to complete the development and cultivation of Lightning Chakra Clone easily.
‘Now how do I get my hands on the Lightning Chakra Armor of Kumogakure?’ he thought as he carefully sealed the samples of Kakashi’s cells in a Sealing Scroll and left Konoha Hospital.
The hundred million Ryo he received from Sandaime-sama in exchange for defeating Shisui, and the money he made from betting in the previous stage have earned him the funds that he was lacking. And Kuroto is planning to immediately invest all the money in his Project Godhood.
Currently, his primary focus is the ‘Type II Biological Armor’ for Karin and the Lightning Chakra Clone. And he is going to immediately start working on both projects.
But of course… there are still a few things waiting for him to attend.
Just as Kuroto exited the Konoha Hospital, suddenly, an Anbu appeared in front of him.
Whoosh!
“Hyuga Kuroto-sama… Hokage-sama has summoned you… please come to his office.”
Kuroto nodded, “I understand, please lead the way.”
Sandaime-sama’s summon is something he expected, although he is a bit surprised that it came too early, ‘It seems Hokage-sama is really worried…”
…
Hokage Office
“Hokage-sama… you summoned me?” asked Kuroto as he entered the Hokage Office.
“Yes… please have a seat.” Spoke Hiruzen as he pointed at the sofa in front.
After Kuroto took sat down, Sandaime did not beat around the bush, and directly spoke, “Kuroto… the Elder Council has reached the decision… you are going to be appointed as the next Hokage!”
After he had spoken Hiruzen carefully observed Kuroto’s reaction. He wanted to see what kind of reaction Kuroto will have upon learning such a piece of information.
Initially, he appeared to be taken aback, but he quickly recovered, and shook his head, “I am sorry, I refuse.”
He had thought of a lot of reactions that Kuroto might show, however, Kuroto’s reaction was completely different to what he expected.
For a moment, Hiruzen couldn’t believe what he heard, and asked, ”What… what did you say?”
