Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

Back to the field.

Sasuke got up from the ground again, his cute baby face was swollen red from both sides, and he looked at Kimimaro as if he was going to chew Kimimaro alive, but even then Sasuke did not pounce on Kimimaro and took a deep breath to strategize his next move.

Kimimaro this time chose not to attack again, and instead asked, “Hey are you really an Uchiha?”

Sasuke was stunned, and said with an annoyed tone “Didn’t I already tell you before? I am an Uchiha.”

‘Is he really an Uchiha? But if so, why is he not using his Sharingan even now? Have I still not forced him enough?’ thought Kimimaro to himself, then slammed his bone-hardened fist in Sasuke’s gut.

“Vomit…!” Sasuke vomited out the snacks he ate in the afternoon; and knelt on the ground, at the same time some sort of fear that had been buried deep inside his heart for several years suddenly woke up again, ‘This is how you punch someone kid.’

.

.

.

‘Is he… is he going to kill me? No… no, Nii-san… please… help me!’ overtaken by fear Sasuke froze and couldn’t even move, he only hoped to see his elder brother Itachi at this moment who can save him.

Fugaku narrowed his eyes looking at his state of Sasuke, ‘So, the fear of Yama and the other one has finally come out… now Sasuke, show me that you can overcome this fear!’

But Sasuke’s thought process was too jumbled up to be able to realize the intentions and expectations of his father.

‘Please… someone… help… I don’t wanna die… please someone!’ was all Sasuke could think as his eyes also lost their focus and he seems to be trying his damn hardest to not cry at this moment.

The crowd was murmuring, many people had a frown on their faces because they too noticed something wrong with Sasuke.

Kimimaro looked at the collapsed Sasuke and asked, “Why don’t you use the Sharingan? Aren’t you an Uchiha; so why not use the Sharingan?”

But Sasuke was too lost to be able to reply to Kimimaro.

And Just when it seemed that the match was almost decided, a young boy with blond hair, blue eyes, and three whiskers on both sides of his cheek jumped up and down on the roof of a close-by building all while shouting, “Hey Sasuke, are you just going to get beaten up without even fighting back? What are you, a scaredy-cat?”

This shout of the blond child was not very inconspicuous, and hardly anyone paid attention to this taunt of his, but for some reason, Sasuke heard it, and as soon as he heard it, the eyes that had lost focus had regained their light.

Listening to Naruto’s taunt, Sasuke who had almost given up, clenched his fists and secretly swear, ‘Damn it Naruto, do you think I don’t want to fight back? But this guy’s movements are too fast for me to be able to react!’

Although Sasuke thought so, there was still a slight smile framing his face, and this slight smile was noted by very few.

‘Thanks, Naruto.’ Thought Sasuke and started to analyze how to turn the tables on Kimimaro, ‘I can’t let fear get the best of me, I must do something to defeat this kid!’

This is the first time Sasuke has felt this kind of despair among peers around his age, the speed of the opponent is too fast for him to even be able to react.

Sasuke knows that his Taijutsu skills are not too bad, he can even fight back and forth with Itachi and Shisui; but in the face of Kimimaro’s Taijutsu skills, Sasuke has not been able to take even the slightest advantage.

‘How should I defeat this guy?’ thought Sasuke.

Receiving no reply from Sasuke, Kimimaro turned around and moved in the direction of the Otogakure party.

Kimimaro may hate Uchiha Clan very much, but he had no intention of humiliating Sasuke who was even younger than himself. Upon realizing that Sasuke is far weaker than expected and probably doesn’t even have the Sharingan; Kimimaro completely lost interest in this fruitless battle that would do nothing except for wasting Orochimaru-sama’s time.

Seeing Kimimaro going away, Sasuke suddenly gritted his teeth, “Hey stop, where do you think you are going?”

Compared to his fear, and verbal provocation of Kimimaro, Sasuke couldn’t really stand the indifference of the other party towards himself, because this indifference reminds Sasuke of Yama.

Kimimaro did not even bother to look at Sasuke and just stated, “You have lost already.”

“No!” Sasuke abruptly stood up and shouted, “I have not lost yet!”

Kimimaro continued to walk towards the other end, all while saying, “You are not strong enough, and I have also come to understand that you do not have the Sharingan, so I don’t care whether you have lost or not, If it makes you feel any better, then I give up because I have no interest in fighting a weakling.”

‘What the hell?’ was the thought ringing in Sasuke’s head as he looked at the indifference of Kimimaro towards himself, which made Sasuke feel humiliated.

The murmurs of the crowd only fueled this humiliation within Sasuke. His face was flushed, the burning sensation was not only from the swelling and pain caused due to being beaten by Kimimaro but also because of the huge sense of humiliation that Sasuke has never felt before.

As soon as Sasuke thought that he would bring shame to the name Uchiha not only in front of Konoha Villagers but even in front of shinobi from many different nations, Sasuke felt despair.

In fact, the ordinary villagers may laugh at Sasuke, but shinobi will not, whether of Konoha or of other villages.

On the contrary, the more powerful a shinobi, the less he would laugh at Sasuke because the strength of Kimimaro is seen by everyone, even many of the older shinobi do not have enough confidence to be able to dodge Kimimaro’s strikes so how can they mock Sasuke who is a kid even younger than Kimimaro?

The young Uchiha obviously did not understand this, at this time, he was shrouded in boundless shame.

Sasuke dare not look at his father and mother, afraid that he would see their disappointed expression.

‘Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! I am weak, why am I always too weak?!’ was the thought raging in Sasuke’s mind, intense anger and humiliation made Sasuke enter an inexplicable state.

And in this state, Sasuke’s Chakra started to flare up and suddenly he felt that his vision had become unreasonably clearer as if a window to the soul was opened; he could even see the wings of an insect far away, and see the dust particles in the air.

At the same time, Sasuke could feel that his Chakra has grown a lot.

Kimimaro also sensed the flaring Chakra of Sasuke, he stopped, turned around, and looked at his scarlet eyes of Sasuke.

Everyone on the sidelines was also surprised, even Fugaku’s stoic face changed upon noticing the change in Sasuke.

Mikoto muttered in shock, “The Sharingan, at such a young age?”

This was really beyond Fugaku and Mikoto’s expectations. It must be known that even their eldest son Itachi, who is an unusual genius only managed to awaken the Sharingan at the age of seven and a half, and that too on a battlefield.

Yet Sasuke, who is only about 7 years old awakened the Sharingan in a meager duel?

Although it’s still not the earliest awakening as that goes to Uchiha Izumi who awakened her Sharingan at the age of less than 6, Fugaku and Mikoto were shocked nonetheless, because Sasuke, without even witnessing the death or loss of someone close awakened the Sharingan; that too at such a young age?

While many people were murmuring in shock and confusion, a ray of greed flashed in the eyes of the disguised Orochimaru.

He was staring at Sasuke like prey and smirked slyly while licking his lips, “Another Uchiha genius, is it?”

At this moment, following Uchiha Shisui, Uchiha Itachi, and the dead Uchiha Tsukihi, the name ‘Uchiha Sasuke’ was also added to the list of Orochimaru’s future prey.

On the side of the Hyuga Clan, seeing the eye-catching tomoe in the scarlet eye wheel of Uchiha Sasuke’s eyes, then thinking of his own daughter who has a mediocre aptitude, Hiashi felt bitter.

When thinking of the genius child of the Uchiha Clan, Hiashi looked at the immature and serious face of Neji, and thought to himself, ‘Perhaps the future of the Hyuga Clan will depend on the shoulders of Neji.’

On the building in the distance, Kuroto was also taken aback by the change of Sasuke, but not much surprised at the same time, and thought to himself, ‘Already awakened the Sharingan? Tsk, tsk, the talent of Indra’s Reincarnation has always been amazing.’

At this time, Sasuke also finally figured out the change in Sasuke’s eyes, and muttered in surprise, “Huh? I awakened the Sharingan?”

“The Sharingan?” Kimimaro muttered; then asked, “Is this the Sharingan?”

After awakening the Sharingan, Sasuke’s confidence was regained; and nodded, “Didn’t you want to see the Sharingan? This is it! Sharingan is the best Dojutsu in the Shinobi World… with these eyes of mine, I can see all of your movements, none of your actions will be hidden from me now!”

Listening to Sasuke, Kimimaro turned around and said, “Come one then, I want to see what the Sharingan can do.”

Although, Sasuke has yet to adapt and master the use of Sharingan; his confidence was reignited, in order to return back the shame to the other party, Sasuke was ready for round 2.

At the same time, Sasuke remembered the words of Itachi, ‘The flow of enemy’s chakra; and the slightest of tension in their muscles is the prelude to the enemy’s attack.’

And in the vision of his Sharingan, the flow of Chakra in Kimimaro’s vision was visible, so Sasuke could judge what moves Kimimaro will make.

As Sasuke observed Kimimaro with his Sharingan, he discovered that the Chakra was converging in the legs of the other party, at the same time, the muscles of Kimimaro’s legs started to converge slowly ‘He is going to use that fast-moving Jutsu?’ was the thought in his mind but before he could prepare any countermeasures, Kimimaro’s figure in front of him disappeared.

Bang!

“Huh? How?” Sasuke exclaimed in shock as he collapsed on the ground again; and this time, even one of his teeth was knocked out.

Sasuke unwillingly got up, and panicked, “Damn it, why was I unable to react?”

It was Kimimaro’s straight punch in Sasuke’s stomach that responded to Sasuke’s question.

This punch of Kimimaro directly blasted out Sasuke, although, only about 20-30 percent of base strength was used, Sasuke was knocked down, nonetheless.

“Argh…” The pain in the stomach caused Sasuke to curl up like a shrimp, he was at a loss.

Looking at Sasuke in pain, Kimimaro looked surprised, and muttered to himself, “There is no difference, is there even a benefit that Sharingan provides?”
