Reborn Into Naruto World With Tenseigan
Bloody Tree Hole
Kakashi frowned while looking at the communication scroll that the communication hawk delivered.
Shisui who was staring at Kakashi carefully asked quickly, “Captain, is Danzo-Sama following Shinichi?”
Kakashi gives the scroll to Shisui while shaking his head and speaking, “Danzo-Sama and the other ninjas of the chase team are herded by Shinichi shadow clones, so they lose track of Shinichi's movements.”
Shisui heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Shinichi's actions at the Root base not only caused damage to the village's labor, upsetting the balance between Uchiha and the Village but also directly harmed Shimura Danzo's prestige. It was a kind of direct slap in the face of Danzo's authority.
The whole cause of Shinichi's actions this time was to kill Shimura Danzo.
Danzo's hatred of the Uchiha Clan is not hidden and since the Uchiha Shinichi caused a heavy blow to Danzo's prestige, so Shisui is very worried that if Danzo and Shinichi meet, one side will definitely die, he said, that would be very detrimental to the village.
If Shinichi died, then controlling the restless Uchiha Clan would become almost impossible.
And if Danzo dies, once again controlling the restless Uchiha Clan will become almost impossible.
So, the best scenario is that the two do not meet until Shisui uses Kotoamatsukami on Shinichi.
When Kuroto picked up the scroll and slightly glanced at the contents, she could only chuckle, “Heh... it looks like we will be busy!”
Kuroto believes that all shinobi with the Dojutsu Kekkei Genkai can be masters of tracking and anti-tracking.
Even in the Hyuga Clan, the Klan children had trained in the art of tracking and anti-tracking, so long as the strength of the Hyuga Clan members reached the standard Chunin Class, it was only the case, it is not surprising to find that they have become the main trackers. Kuroto himself had received such training not only from the Hyuga Clan but also personally from his teacher Orochimaru.
After all, a snake should always be careful of the path it goes through!
And this fact also applies to the Uchiha Clan with their Sharingan, although the Uchiha specializes more in anti-tracking.
So, tracking down the movements of an ordinary Jonin Uchiha with his three-tomoe Sharingan was already a very difficult task not to mention the Shinichi Uchiha who had awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.
Because this incident happened too suddenly, Danzo only had time to bring Hyuga Hizashi from the Hyuga Clan with him.
The impatient Danzo did not wait for the arrival of the other expert ninjas from the Inuzuka and Aburame Clans who lived on the edge of Konoha and hurriedly chased after Shinichi only with Hyuga Hizashi.
Clearly, Danzo wanted to kill Uchiha Shinichi as soon as possible to not only minimize the impact of this storm but also to get a new pair of Mangekyou Sharingan for him.
But unfortunately for him, his impatience backfired, and without the help of Aburame and Inuzuka who can track through smell and by receiving signals from insects.
With just a pair of Byakugan, it is very difficult to track down Shinichi who specializes in anti-tracking due to his Mangekyou for Hyuga Hizashi, even if he is one of the strongest shinobi in Konoha at the moment.
And this, once again, reflected the lack of Kage-class power in the village to effectively deal with such emergencies.
There was no shortage of elites in Konoha, but a complete lack of Kage-class shinobi.
Sandaime needed to sit in the village, Jiraiya was still on the front line against Cloud to defend against a possible attack and participate in peace negotiations.
So, when Shinichi makes such a mess, Danzo is the only one Sandaime trusts enough to chase after Shinichi.
But the fact is Danzo has been in the shadows for too long, now he has lost most of his Natural Power and Will, but there is still an unrealistic obsession to become the Hokage and unify the Shinobi world.
But since he did not possess Natural Will, he always avoided dangerous scenarios.
After all, even in the original series, Danzo shrank during the Kyuubi Rebellion, Danzo shrank during Orochimaru's defection, then he shrank during the Konoha Sand Destruction Plan, and finally, he shrank back in time to the Pain Attack.
From start to finish, no matter how much damage Konoha suffered, Danzo would always hide inside the Shadow and watch everything happen with cold eyes in the hope that it would one day be revealed!
But how did that happen?
If he was not even willing to dedicate himself to the cause and safety of the village, how could he be the light of Konoha?
Shaking his head helplessly, Kuroto turned towards Guy who asked with a pouting expression, “Because Danzo\=Sama team lost track of him, then where can we find him?”
Kakashi did not answer just directly called.
Breezy…
As the white smoke dissipated, eight Ninken of different sizes, colors, and appearances appeared before the four members of Team-11.
Taking a small piece of cloth covered in blood, Kakashi handed it to eight Ninken while saying, “Pakkun, please help me find the owner of this smell.”
This cloth was discovered by Kakashi on the battlefield last night, the owner of the blood on it was none other than Uchiha Shinichi, although Shinichi's wounds recovered instantly, his blood was not lost.
Pakkun sniffed the cloth for a while then said, “Follow me!”
With that, Pakkun took the lead.
After a few hours of tracking, everyone stopped somewhere.
“Kakashi, the owner of that smell is supposed to be hiding there!”
Following the direction, Pakkun pointed, the four Team-11s looked up and saw nothing but an enormous tree.
At this moment, everyone's gazes turned to Kuroto.
And Kuroto who had activated Byakugan observed the big tree then shook his head negatively, “There is only one hole, Shinichi is not there, and he shakes his head negatively, although some signs indicate that she was there not long ago!”
Nodding at Kuroto's guess, everyone came to the tree hole and was a little surprised by what they saw inside.
There were some bloodstains that had coagulated in the tree cave, along with many blood-stained bandages strewn about, from the scattered chaos, it was not difficult to guess that there was a seriously injured person here and bandaged his wound. while hiding in this tree cave.
Shisui asked with a puzzled expression, “Did Shinichi have such a serious injury? And Danzo-Sama still can't find his trail?”
Kakashi turned his head towards Pakkun and asked in confirmation, “Does the smell of blood in this tree cave match the smell of blood in that cloth?”
After sniffing a little to check, Pakkun nodded, “Ya, no doubt!”
Kuroto who was crouching somewhere to check something said lightly, “The blood here has already coagulated and turned blackish, that means that the blood was slowest to drip to the ground last night, so Shinichi must have left here before today!”
Putting together some parts, Shisui muttered solemnly, “Is there another group chasing after him? Shinichi did not even bother to bleed and bandage here.”.
“We cannot rule out that possibility.” After a short pause, Kuroto turned his head towards Kakashi and asked puzzledly, “Are you sure Uchiha Shinichi has some sort of recovery/regeneration ability? And are you really sure that he didn't get injured while leaving the battlefield yesterday?”
Kakashi nodded seriously, “Yes, during the battle he did receive some serious injuries, but everything disappeared too quickly, it was a total recovery without any scars left behind!”
Kakashi's insights were also no worse than Shisui's with his Mangekyou, so he was confident in what he saw.
Moreover, he carefully observed Shinichi during the battle, so close that no detail escaped his sight.
‘He had no injuries while he was away, the chase team under the command of Danzo was taken away by his shadow clone, then why did he suffer such injuries even with his recovery ability? Who could hurt him in such a way? Is that Obito? Or someone else I don't know..?’ – Kuroto thought slowly while putting one hand on her chin.
In Kuroto's understanding, if it was Obito then Shinichi was either dead or escaped at the expense of his Mangekyou Sharingan so he lost his recovery ability.
After all, there should be no fierce fighting, this was not in line with Obito's method.
‘Unless Shinichi could force Obito to use the Wood Element!’ – But then Kuroto immediately shook his head to deny the possibility, this idea sounded too absurd to be true.
First, Obito did not need to do a deadly fight against Shinichi, and secondly, Obito would not risk letting Shinichi escape alive if he exposed the Wood Element, after all, Obito pretending to be ‘Uchiha Madara!’
And according to the Uchiha Standard, Madara would not let go of his pride to obtain the Senju Wood Element that he hated so much!
With that thought in his mind, there was only the last possibility left.
So, holding his mind back, Kuroto said to the other Team-11 members, “The most likely explanation, pointing towards the third group that had intervened in this matter, we must be more careful in this mission!”
