Chereads / Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan / Chapter 157 - Chapter – 154 An Awaiting Encounter

Chapter 157 - Chapter – 154 An Awaiting Encounter

After dropping Haku back to the underground residence, Kuroto returned to his secret laboratory.

Although his actions went a little overboard in using the Water Ninjutsu and attracted some attention, Kuroto was still very satisfied with Clone-A's water chakra affinity.

While recording data, Kuroto planned the next step.

It is quite unclear as to why was the creation of Water Clone went unexpectedly smooth. Perhaps it could be related to the high fusion compatibility between his and Haku's cells or maybe somehow related to the stability of the Water Element.

As for why is the affinity of the Water Clone so high?

Kuroto does have a conjecture, and it's probably because of the active genes of his main body, but he can't be sure about it until more test results are obtained, but it is still the most logical explanation.

In short, whatever may be the reason, the experiment of Water Clone Creation went better than Kuroto's initial expectations.

'Now the next thing I have to focus on is the adaption of Soul with the clone-Body!'

After recording all the data, Kuroto thoughtfully closed the data scroll in his hand.

The process of achieving soul and body balance is a water milling work, simply put, it would require Kuroto to stay in the Clone body for a long time.

Only by spending time in the clone body will the fit be perfect.

According to Kuroto's estimation, as long as his soul just resides in the clone body for three years, then the clone would become a perfect fit.

Three years is obviously too long!

Based on the 'three years calculation,' it would take a total of eighteen years to obtain a perfect body soul fit with the six different clones of six different chakra natures.

Eighteen years doesn't seem too long to become the supreme God of the Shinobi World by achieving Kekkei Mora but considering that the Fourth Great Shinobi War broke out about fourteen to fifteen years later as per the original timeline, Kuroto obviously doesn't have eighteen years in his hand.

And taking the Butterfly effect into account, Kuroto thinks that he doesn't even have fourteen years in his hand.

So, speeding up the process is the only option.

Holding his chin, Kuroto thought about it a little.

In addition to simply spending time in the Clone body, participating in battles can also increase the adaption speed between the body and soul.

This is because, during a battle, the body and soul are under constant high-speed rotation; therefore, the speed of adaption increases several times.

And Kuroto knows that the shinobi world may lack anything but there would never be a shortage of battles!

Having made up his mind, Kuroto planned his further actions with this decision.

Since the fighting style of the Water Clone is completely different from the Yin Body, therefore, Kuroto can't continue to use the 'Yama' disguise while in this body.

Therefore, Kuroto spent a lot of time preparing another disguise for the Water Clone.

The base was kept similar to the 'Yama' disguise, a full-body Midnight Black cloak with the golden pattern over it, which was again complex sealing symbol Kuroto sewed with Gold Thread, then a symbol of Water element around the chest part, and five symbols of the basic chakra element printed in a circle around the Yin-Yang symbol at the center at the back.

Finally, a Blue Evil Spirit Mask to symbolize the Water Element, of course, the mask again had the complex sealing symbols on the inner side to interfere with the perception and search type ninjutsu.

Donning the Cloak and the mask over his vest, Kuroto looked at his image in the mirror and nodded in appreciation, and finally muttered, "Since this is Water Clone, then I will need another alias, hmm…, how about 'Suijin'? The Shinto God of Water! Yup, Suijin seems alright! Yosh, Suijin it is!"

With that decided, Kuroto left a Shadow Clone in the Village and secretly sneaked out of Konoha as 'Suijin'.

1 Week later.

Suijin kicked the corpse lying before him with a disappointed expression.

In order to increase the soul adaptation with the Clone body, Suijin took a bounty mission from the black market.

The bounty mission clearly stated that the target is a Jonin class missing-nin from Kusagakure, but the result highly disappointed Suijin.

"What Jonin, this guy is barely even a Chunin!"

It took only two small moves to solve the target.

Puff…

While Suijin was cleaning up the battlefield, the familiar figure of Kasai emerged with a puff of white smoke.

As soon as the orange cat emerged out of the white smoke, it stretched out its paw and demanded,

"Meow, One Thousand Ryo!"

Suijin immediately had an annoyed face, "Can't you change the opening sentence?"

Kasai hesitated a little and finally nodded with a determined expression as if it had put a great deal of effort to follow his request, "Aright, but you have to increase the money!

Suijin immediately denied, "Forget it, I suddenly found out that I like your opening line very much, you must never change it for the rest of your life!"

With that said, Suijin passed the money and took the communication scroll, and opened it.

"The mysterious person the organization has been looking for was never found!"

"Recently, the organization has been eying a bounty ninja with the name 'Yama'"

"That freak Kakazu said that this 'Yama' is very mysterious and very strong, and strangely enough, until now the organization hasn't found any leads on him even after so much investigation, there is simply no trace."

"Rather than questioning how strong the bounty ninja can be, I tend to think that how can a strong person become a bounty ninja? it's quite strange that this 'Yama' guy is working as a bounty ninja if his strength is as strong as Kakazu says, don't you think so boss!?"

Suijin nodded while reading the last sentence. Indeed, as Shinichi spoke, generally strong Shinobi wouldn't opt to work as black-market bounty hunters, this is very simple because either they don't need to due to being affiliated to some shinobi villages or they can just establish their own small villages or organization.

The reason why he is working as a bounty ninja because his Anbu identity doesn't allow him to take on simple missions, and he will also be under the Village's monitoring.

Anyway, after sending away the greedy cat, Suijin sealed the corpse in a storage scroll and went to the nearest black-market branch.

As usual, the branch was hidden with a cover of a bar, Suijin directly went inside, confirmed the password, and placed the corpse before the branch boss, and added, "Bring me the latest edition of your mission book!"

The branch boss passed over the mission book and got busy with the processing work.

After some time, the boss asked tentatively, "Suijin-Sama, what is your relationship with Yama-Sama?"

Because the dress code of both 'Yama' and 'Suijin' is very similar with only slight differences, therefore, the boss was a bit curious. After all, 'Yama' has gained a very high reputation in the black-market Circle.

Suijin didn't look up, just replied casually, "'Yama' is our leader!"

As soon as he heard this, the black-market boss immediately became more diligent, even a Shinobi Village doesn't dare to take a group of organized and powerful Ninjas lightly, let alone him, who is just a small man with not much power.

What's more, it is believed that Yama's strength is very high, so this Suijin must also be extremely strong if he belongs to the same organization. Therefore, the other party is definitely not someone, the black-market boss could afford to offend.

While the Black-market boss intended to immediately process the bounty, Suijin, who was flipping through the pages of the mission booklet suddenly stopped as he perceived a strong chakra signature approaching him.

Byakugan…

Turning his head to look in the direction after activating his Byakugan, he observed the two people dressed in the iconic black cloak with red cloud prints over it; slowly walking towards the black-market branch…
