Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

"WOW!!!" – exclaimed Shion in excitement while she was sitting on Kuroto's shoulders.

Kuroto looked helpless, "Okay-okay, don't jump around so much otherwise you might fall."

"Kuroto-onii-chan, we are flying, we are really flying!" – But it seemed that the excited Shion completely ignored Kuroto's words, and clapped in excitement. Her mood was on cloud nine, and even if they both were flying so high, Shion didn't feel scared at all, rather she was more and more excited as Kuroto went higher and higher.

Kuroto said, "Remember what I told you before?"

To deal with Shinno, firstly the location of his hideout must be determined. Therefore, taking advantage of the cover of night, Kuroto left two clones in the village, one to cover his absence and the other to cover Shion's absence, and sneaked out of the village to determine Shinno's hideout.

And Shion is the only one who is capable of locating Shinno. With the hell of that bell, Moryo or Shinno would not be able to sense Shion, but Shion will still be able to feel Moryo's location.

Shion who was extremely excited by the experience of flying did not pay any attention to Kuroto's words, and said while pointing towards the moon, "The moon in the sky is so big and round from up close, it is so beautiful!"

Hearing Shion's words, Kuroto also looked towards Moon. He of course understands that Moon is more than Moon than just beautiful.

Because of Tenseigan, Kuroto can always feel some sort of connection or better yet, a resonance with the Giant Tenseigan on Moon.

But Kuroto has never dared to make a connection with the Giant Tenseigan.

The main reason is obviously the presence of the Otsutsuki Clan on the Moon.

Those people are nothing more than ignorant people who aim to destroy the Shinobi World because they misunderstand Hamura's ideals.

And Kuroto has no wish to stimulate the nerves of such lunatics as that would only prompt them to act earlier than they should according to the original story.

But Shion of course doesn't know of all this and said while excitedly pointing towards the moon, "Kuroto-onii-chan, Kuroto-onii-chan, can we go to the moon? Please!?"

Kuroto shook his head, "No, we cannot."

Shion's seemed a bit dejected, "B… But, why not?"

Kuroto said, "These wings of mine will not be able to carry us to the moon."

Shion looked at the pair of flapping purple wings with scales sprouting from Kuroto's back, then sighed.

Seeing Shion's disappointed expression, Kuroto grinned and said, "But maybe it will be possible for me to bring up a method through which we can go to the moon."

Shion's eyes lit up immediately, "Does that mean that someday we can go?"

Kuroto neither nodded nor denied, just said casually, "Maybe…"

However, that gave Shion some understanding, "Then-then, when can we go to the moon?"

Kuroto said with a smile, "Maybe in a few years. But even after I come up with a method, we still have to beat those bad people on Moon. When I beat the bad people on the moon, I will take you to play on the moon."

The Giant Tenseigan on Moon is very-very-very strong. Firstly, it contains Hamura's own Tenseigan as the core as well as Hamura's entire Chakra. Then it also contains the chakra of hundreds of thousands of Otsutsuki's who have existed on the Moon throughout the Millenia. As such it is without a doubt an extremely strong force.

In terms of Chakra Volume alone, it is hundreds or perhaps even thousands of times superior to Kuroto's own Chakra.

Therefore, unless Toneri acts as he did in the original story, Kuroto doesn't really have any confidence to take control of Moon unless he completed his grand plan and reaches the Kekkei Mora.

Shion asked, "How can there be bad people on the Moon?"

Kuroto questioned, "Who said there can't be bad people on Moon?"

Shion pouted and folded her hands over her chest, "Kuroto-onii-chan, you are making excuses, how can there be bad people on the Moon? Doesn't the Rabbit Goddess live on the moon? How can there be bad people there when she lives there?"

As soon as Kuroto heard Shion mention the Rabbit Goddess, he froze, "Shion-chan, who told you that the Rabbit Goddess lives on Moon?"

Shion said, "Of course it was Oka-san."

"M… Miko-sama told?" – Kuroto was more stunned, 'Did she knew of Otsutsuki Kaguya or was it just some sort of fairy tale?'

Kuroto can't be sure, if it was just some fairy tale then that's all there is to it as there are countless fairy tales about Rikudo Sennin, his brother, his mother Rabbit Goddess, and the God Tree, but if it was not just some fairy tale and Miko-sama intended for Shion to remember such information… then Kuroto doesn't even know what to think about it.

Deciding that he doesn't want to discuss this matter more as Shion probably doesn't understand this very deeply, Kuroto decided to divert the conversation, and said while pinching Shion's nose "maybe I am making excuses but we will talk all about that later, you remember why came here tonight, right?"

Shion nodded, "To find his location."

Kuroto said, "Good, now it's time to get to work, quickly try to sense the direction where Moryo is positioned."

Shion nodded and after sensing a little she pointed in the southeast, "He seems to be… to be in that direction."

Kuroto looked southeast and then asked, "How far is he in that direction?"

Shion thought a little and then said with a confused expression, "He is far, very very far away."

Kuroto nodded and thought, 'Southeast of the Land of Fire? Is it near the Land of Whirlpool? Or maybe near Land of Tea, Land of Soup, and around? If you travel far enough then that would be the Land of Water, so it has to be before that.'

In the original story, the Shinobi of Land of Sky launched an air raid on Konoha… and if Kuroto remembers correctly, the air raid was launched from the direction of sea to the east of the Land of Fire.'

'It seems that Shinno's current hideout is located somewhere in and around those island countries.' – thought Kuroto.

Thinking of this, Kuroto flew in that direction.

After crossing the border of Land of Fire, and traveling further, Kuroto stopped and waited for Shion to further confirm the direction.

Shinno sensed again and pointed.

Kuroto noted the direction and muttered, "That direction leads to the Land of Tea."

Understanding this, Kuroto did not hesitate and flew further, soon Sion said, "I can sense him getting closer and closer."

"Getting closer and closer? – Kuroto nodded and immediately landed on the ground as the purple wings behind his back disappeared.

At this time, he was standing within a dense forest, and all he can look at was land filled with trees.

Shion who was held in carrying by him suddenly hugged him closer, she buried her head in Kuroto's chest, her arms locked around Kuroto's neck and her body shivering in fear.

Kuroto has noticed this, the closer they have been getting to Shinno and Moryo, the more afraid Shion got. If not for being under Kuroto's protection, she might have already cried.

Kuroto gently rubbed Shion's back to ease her and said in a calming tone, "Do not worry Shion-chan, onii-chan is here, right? Nothing will happen to you."

Shion nodded lightly and asked in a low voice, "Onii-chan, after… after finding his hideout… can you… can really get rid of him?"

Kuroto immediately nodded, "Of course!"

Kuroto's words seemed to give some courage to Shion, and her shivering stopped.

With Shion calm, Kuroto traveled through the forest and soon located a post. While hiding himself and Shion so that nobody on from the watchtower would be able to spot either of them and then observed the situation through his Byakugan.

In the watch post, Kuroto saw a few shinobi wearing the forehead protector of the Land of Sky.

And he spotted many similar outposts through the forest. Two things were common in all of them, one being that all of them had shinobi of Land of Sky guarding, while the other being that they were transporting supplies.

By now, Kuroto no longer needed for Shion to point anything more, and he was already certain about many things. As such, he no longer stayed here and left with Shion.

After returning to the village, Kuroto made sure to make a pinky promise with Shion to keep their little adventure today a secret from everyone, including Yui sensei, Taruho, and Hinata-chan, Shion's newest best friend.

Shion of course complied and then went to sleep like the good girl she is.

While Kuroto sneaked out again, but this time, he went to the back forest of the Uchiha Clan and secretly summoned Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi.

As soon as the two arrived one-after-another, Kuroto decided to not waste either of their time and directly cut to the chase, "I have investigated the hiding place of Akatsuki Organization's Shinno."

Shisui perked up, "It's the guy who unleashed that demon inside the village?"

Kuroto nodded.

Itachi asked, "So, um, Kuroto-san, what is Amatsukami going to do?"

Kuroto said, "Of course, take action and eliminate the threat of Shinno, as well as obtain intelligence on the other members of Akatsuki through Shinno."

Shisui asked, "When will we take action?"

"The sooner we act the batter, as I have a feeling that Shinno has some big plans, and considering his hatred towards Konoha, we can't take the risk of him acting first." – After a pause here, Kuroto continued, "But I also want the two of you to understand that other than the fact that Shinno has become the Jinchuriki of Moryo the Demon so his strength is obviously very high. Also, there will be hundreds of shinobi of the Land of Sky under him that we will be going up against, and we can't be careless. So Shisui, you will also participate in this operation."

Shisui and Itachi looked at each other and nodded together.

Kuroto said, "And one more thing, Uchiha Tsukihi will be in charge of this operation, the three Ho Musubi of Amatsukami will act on this mission."

Shisui frowned, "Uchiha Tsukihi?"

Shisui has never personally met Uchiha Tsukihi so even though he heard of Uchiha Tsukihi, and the fact that she faked her death for the sake of the Uchiha Clan, he is still a bit skeptical about her.

Itachi was different from Shisui, he was not so suspicious as he has been trained by Tsukihi, so he nodded and then asked, "Tsukihi-san will lead the team? Then what about you Kuroto-san?"

Kuroto shook his head and said, "I won't be participating in this mission as I have other things to take care of, this will be a solo Ho Musubi action."
