Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan-Novel
Chapter 129 - – 126 Hachiman"Hoh… is the fight fierce to such an extent?"
Looking at the golden light that dazzled from time to time at the horizon along with the loud rumbling sounds that echoed in his ears, White Zetsu's Clone was really surprised at this moment.
Because the main body and the Masked-Man are constraining the main pursuit unit led by Shimura Danzo in the surrounding forest of Konoha, therefore only he and some other clones were responsible for monitoring and keeping track of Uchiha Shinichi.
But unfortunately, the Masked-Man and Zetsu didn't take Shinichi's perception ability into account, which led to most of them being killed by Shinichi, leaving only him in this area.
Ever since awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan, Shinichi's perception has far surpassed the level of an elite-sensor team, therefore, it is very difficult for Zetsu's clone to get close to Shinichi, as the guy will most likely notice him too.
Zetsu Clone has already confirmed this several times during the follow-up along the way, so at this time; he didn't dare to get too close to the battlefield and was only observing it from far away, therefore, he wasn't aware of the specific situation on the battlefield.
"Can't let him die!"
The fierce battle happening there is far beyond his expectations, and in order to ensure that no accident happens to Uchiha Shinichi, Zetsu's clone decided to take the risk and get closer after a little hesitation.
Coming out of the ground, he jumped onto a big tree to have a higher elevation so as to increase his field of vision for a clear view.
Wouch… Wouch… Wouch…
The moment he landed on the canopy of the tree; several iron spears rained upon him from all directions!
'What happened?'
Even before White Zetsu could react, he was nailed to the tree trunk with all the iron spears.
White Zetsu who was restricted noticed that some of the iron spears were wrapped in detonation charms.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBoom…
'Oops!' – that was his last thought as he was drowned in a series of explosions.
Boom… Boom…
As the explosions subsided after a few seconds, the Sandaime Kazekage puppet that has been watching over Kuroto while flying high in the sky; examined the wreckage to confirm that the White Zetsu Clone was indeed destroyed.
Since Team-11 departed for the mission, the Sandaime Puppet has been continuously flying in the air to watch over the team and take care of all the snoopers.
Obviously, Kuroto has confirmed that Shinichi has been in contact with Obito, so Kuroto would naturally take measures against Zetsu's intelligence gathering.
So even when he is fighting with Shinichi, Kuroto made sure to not neglect to keep watch over the surroundings, and precisely because of this; he was able to perceive the presence of White Zetsu trying to observe their battle.
And Kuroto would obviously not let him do that.
When Zetsu is merged with the ground he is able to perceive and spy on chakra reaction and emission through the conduction of Earth so it is difficult to catch him, but when he is above the ground, his sensing ability is not good enough to protect against air attacks.
Therefore, he wasn't aware of the Kazekage puppet that was lurking in the air, and as soon as he got out of the ground, he was killed before he even had any time to react or check out who the enemy is.
…
On Kuroto's Side.
The battle between him and Shinichi continued.
Through his careful observations, Kuroto discovered that Shinichi can not only undo his injuries but can even constantly maintain his chakra Volume and pupil power even after his Susanoo has been repeatedly destroyed by Kuroto.
'It is impossible to constantly maintain Chakra Volume if his Mangekyou Sharingan ability allows him to only heal injuries or postpone them into the future!'
Thinking of this Kuroto again recalled the description of Uchiha Kurumi's death.
'The girl he loved died in his arms, but he was powerless to do anything, even if he tried.
Based on this, I initially thought that the Mangekyou Sharingan ability he awakened would somehow be related to 'Healing', but now it seems that the keyword here is not 'Healing' but 'Protecting' or 'Guarding', probably.'
'Guarding' is obviously very different from 'Healing'.
From this, more guesses can be derived, and Kuroto thinks that Uchiha Shinichi's Mangekyou Sharingan ability gives him a locked state in which there is some 'Guardian' effect.
As long as he is in this state, no matter how many injuries he gets, and no matter how much Chakra he consumes, his state will continue to keep him in his peak form, so that he can continue fighting.
'But how long does that state lasts is difficult to infer, and it's even hard to guess that whether he would even go blind while he is in this state.'
'But it is still a Mangekyou Sharingan ability, so it must depend on his Mangekyou Sharingan, and there has to be some way to break through it!'
After roughly analyzing this, Kuroto thought of two methods to break through it.
First is that there is probably a time limit to how long this state lasts, as long as that time passes, it should be possible to subdue him unless he activates that state again.
The second is that there must be an upper limit to how much damage the 'Guardian' can restore, if the total damage inflicted upon him exceeds the upper limit; then it should be possible to subdue Shinichi.
Of course, both of these possibilities are only limited to Kuroto's guesses, whether they are really true or not, have to be verified.
Up until now, Kuroto was continuously holding back so as to not damage the Mangekyou Sharingan in Shinichi's sockets.
But now he feels that the more restraint he is; the longer will the battle continue, and he won't even be able to do anything to Uchiha Shinichi considering Shinichi's possible eye ability, so now he will be changing his approach and use more of his strength to make a quick decision.
As for whether Shinichi's Mangekyou Sharingan will remain intact?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKuroto will leave that to Shinichi's luck!
After making up his mind, Kuroto immediately flashed and rushed towards the Susanoo armor, and pierced the Golden Sword through the Susanoo, the target this time was directly Shinichi.
Boom…
With an exploding sound, Susanoo's armor broke to pieces and his body was directly cut in half by the Golden Sword.
Shinichi, whose body fell into two parts on the ground, coughed up blood and murmured, "So fast…"
While Kuroto was watching Shinichi's recovery intently, he distractingly sensed the surroundings.
Kuroto was able to sense many Chakra reactions rushing towards him, and these Chakra signatures included the familiar ones of the Team-11, as well as, unfamiliar ones.
"Can't delay any longer!" – Kuroto muttered with a frowning expression.
At this time, a line of blood tears came out of Shinichi's eyes, and a whole new lower half sprouted from his upper body.
Kuroto was obviously shocked seeing this scene.
'It can recover such a degree of Damage!?' – he thought in shock, this type of recovery is as amazing as to how Jubi Madara easily recovered from Death Gate Guy's final attack.
Moreover, the whole process didn't even take a second, and when he recovered there was not even any decrease in his Chakra level.
Sure enough, Mangekyou Sharingan's abilities are all cheats on their own!
Shinichi who was back to his peak didn't attack immediately this time but blurted out in a confused tone, "How could Hachiman's time decrease so much at once!?"
According to Shinichi's guess, his peak state should have continued for at least five more minutes, but after being directly cut in half by that Golden Sword this time limit has decreased by so much.
Ruling out all the possible scenarios, Shinichi's gaze finally landed on the Golden Sword in Kuroto's hand, and asked, "Just what Kind of Ninjutsu is that Golden Sword in your hand, Hyuga Kuroto!?"
