Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

Shiver… Shiver…

For some reason, Kuroto suddenly started to feel this sudden cold feeling.

Currently, he is in a spirit body form, and logically speaking it should not be possible for him to feel any kind of coldness or warmth as it simply doesn't make any sense. At least, not with the absence of thermoreceptors that only a physical body can have.

Flying such a long distance in the Soul state is a first-time experience for Kuroto.

As his first impression, Kuroto felt that traveling in a soul state is indeed somewhat advantageous as the speed is unreasonably fast. Even if Kuroto is used to the extremely fast speed of Tenseigan Chakra Mode, he still felt that the soul state travel might as well be the second-fastest mode of travel in the Shinobi world. Right after Space-Time techniques.

And since Kuroto knows that he has no way of mastering Space-Time techniques for now, so he feels that such a mode of travel is also a very viable option, considering its advantages.

But soon, Kuroto started to feel discomfort..

And this discomfort appeared in the form of the sudden coldness he started to feel.

Logically speaking, Kuroto should not feel warmth or coldness in the spirit body form, and yet he does, why is that?

He tried to think of the possible reasons, and the first possible reason Kuroto can think of was 'fast consumption of Chakra.'

When traveling in Soul form, the rate of chakra consumption is indeed very high, moreover, in this state, Kuroto has no access to Ryuumyaku Chakra, nor can he condense more of his chakra, so whatever chakra he already has is rigorously being consumed.

And the second likeliest reason is the strength of spirit.

For a myriad of time, Kuroto has pondered as to why was his genetics weaker compared to the rest of the Hyuga (before awakening Tenseigan), Kuroto still doesn't have any possible explanation but there is one possibility, and that is the strength of his soul.

For condensing Charka both physical body and spirit body are essential, and the strength or weakness of either affects the other. From the time he has started to use Tenseigan Soul Descend, Kuroto has figured out that his Soul is way weaker than the indigenous people of this world, and that had somehow affected his physical body too.

And even after he has awakened the Tenseigan which has increased his Soul Body's strength significantly it is still nowhere near ready to perform such long-time separation from any physical body.

And that's why the Charka consumption is very-very high for Kuroto, at least very-very high compared to Miko-sama who was able to remain in the soul state even after losing her physical body for nearly a month if not longer. Well, Miko's specific powers and Fuinjutsu might also be a cause behind this but who knows?

Although he doesn't think that his current soul body is weaker than Miko-sama, he does know that compared to Otsutsuki Indra and Otsutsuki Asura, Kuroto is indeed incomparable, after all, their souls have still been staying in the Shinobi World to this day.

As for Rikudo Sennin, there is nothing to even speak about, someone who can give his Chakra to Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke such that both of their strength reached such a high level is simply unreasonable, and Kuroto couldn't even begin to fathom just how strong would his soul be?

It can only be described as a major qualitative gap of several levels.

"Damn, I have to hurry… or else…" – Gradually, Kuroto felt that his consciousness has begun blurring.

This is obviously not a good sign, it undoubtedly means that the Chakra Volume was at a limit, and he has to hurry.

Fortunately, enough, he is already very close to the village, otherwise, Kuroto would be in serious trouble.

Increasing his speed, Kuroto rushed full throttle towards the direction of the village and soon arrived.

At this moment, the village seems to have fallen into a chaotic state. Many ninjas were gathered near the Hokage Building, and many others were busy evacuating the villagers into the emergency shelter.

Seeing such a state, Kuroto can't help but wonder, "Has the situation gone so worse? Did Akatsuki launch a full-scale attack on the village? No! that's not possible because if it really happened then Konoha would have been destroyed already so that's unlikely, but then what is the reason?"

Kuroto was puzzled, more so because even with the chaotic state of the village, no fighting seems to be happening around, so what is happening that has prompted Sandaime-sama to issue emergency evacuation?

While Kuroto was wondering, he also noticed another spirit body that flashed past the Hyuga Clan territory and disappeared.

Kuroto frowned, "How can there be another spirit body here? Is it possible that someone in the clan is inquiring about the situation in the village in the spirit for?"

Because Kuroto can only remember one Konoha Shinobi who used to use a soul transfer technique, and that Kato Dan, the only user is long dead. Does that mean that someone else has also mastered such a technique?

When thinking so, Kuroto also thought of the possibility that this person may be the traitor that betrayed the village to Kumo by passing secret intel.

And this really makes sense, because if this traitor has mastered such a technique then he can easily pass on the information about the layout of the Hyuga Clan to others, guide them to the Hyuga Clan and even lead the culprit to sneak into the sleeping quarters of Hyuga Hinata.

"I don't think that he noticed me, and I think that I need to find a way to figure out who exactly that person is and then get rid of him as soon as I can." – muttered Kuroto.

Currently, Kuroto doesn't have time to pursue that person, as Kuroto was having difficulty maintaining concentration but in the near future I will try to investigate.

After nodding to himself, Kuroto did not stay here anymore and rushed in the direction of his secret laboratory.

Entering his secret laboratory after bypassing all the barriers, Kuroto came to the room where two Nutrition tanks were stored.

Looking at the two nutrition tanks in front of him, Kuroto groaned for a little.

These two Nutrition tanks contained his Suijin Clone and Homusubi clone, and Kuroto was considering which option should he choose.

After a while of weighing the situation a little, Kuroto decided and transferred his soul into Homusubi Clone.

Since he won't have access to Ryuumyaku Chakra right now, so the battle potential of the Suijin Clone will be somewhat limited, and it would hard to deal with the likes of Shinno in the Jinchuriki state and Hiruko.

Moreover, Ice Release is too conspicuous to act in a covert.

So Homusubi clone is a better option, although the base strength is still not as good as Suijin Clone, the presence of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan makes up for that.

And there is also a possibility that Shinno can perform high-level Genjutsu with the powers of Moryo, so the Visual Prowess of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan coupled with Daikokuten would make up for all the shortcomings and even give some advantages.

When Kuroto transferred his soul into Homusubi Clone, the Sandaime Kazekage puppet helped in draining the solution inside the Nutrition Tank, and he can finally come out of the Nutrition Tank.

After coming out of the Nutrition Tank, Kuroto did not even bother about the wet body, and the first thing he did was take a deep breath to relieve the pain and coldness he was feeling earlier.

The feeling of your spirit body being on the verge of collapse is really makes one uncomfortable.

But there is also no other alternative, strengthening of the spirit body can only be done through adaption, and that takes time and effort.

Regardless, Kuroto doesn't have time to ponder over such issues as he must hurry to ensure Yui and Shion's safety.
