Chapter 68: Forbidden Spots
Chapter 68: Forbidden Spots
A few days later.
Land of Hot Water.
Kakashi and Guy who were unconscious lay side by side on the ground inside a small cave, while Kuroto sat on the side and Shisui was sitting at the campfire busy cooking.
Stirring the small pot on the fire Shisui whispered, “Kuroto-San, the soup is just about ready!”
Kuroto nodded eagerly, he was really hungry right now.
Although he still has Military Ration Pills left with him, their taste is just too awful.
Now, it’s not that Kuroto hates eating it but like most other Shinobi he would also prefer eating something delicious like fish soup over the tasteless Military Ration Pills.
Without much delay, Shisui brought a bowl of fresh steaming fish soup for Kuroto.
While drinking the soup, Kuroto looked over towards Kakashi and Guy who were lying unconscious.
It’s funny to think that Guy who retreated first with Kakashi on Kuroto’s orders, was more injured than him and Shisui.
But it’s not that strange if you think about it, even if Kuroto and Shisui tried their best, they were unable to stop any follow-up chase after Guy, as a result, he was intercepted by cloud ninjas and had no choice other than to use Hachimon Tonkou.
Hachimon Tonkou is a forbidden Jutsu that damages the enemy 1000 points and injures oneself by 800 points, so although Guy successfully managed to repel the enemy shinobi, he was also injured severely.
On the other hand, Kakashi’s situation is even more complicated.
Although Kakashi has serious injuries and excessive blood loss, the reason for him being in a coma is something else.
As for what that reason might be?
Kuroto has no idea for the time being.
He doesn’t even have much time to worry about Kakashi right now as his own troubles have not been solved yet.
………. crack……
For some reason, Kuroto suddenly wrinkled his eyebrows, and the bowl in his hand fell to the ground, breaking into several fragments which alerted Shisui.
Shisui suddenly asked, “Kuroto-San, are you alright, did something happen? Is there anyone approaching here?”
Kuroto only shook his head negatively with a sullen face, “Huh… Nothing happened.”
After reassuring Shisui one more time, Kuroto turned to look outside the cave.
The night sky outside was very charming, bright stars like diamonds filled the night sky, bright and soft moonlight only enhanced this beauty, making it all feel surreal.
Looking at such a charming night, Kuroto can only sigh as he was worried about something else, “Huh… did that small incident shocked them so much?”
Kuroto thinks so only because just a few moments ago the search curtain of Tenseigan Chakra again went past them. He wouldn’t have even noticed this if not for the fact that he is now familiar with Hamura’s chakra.
Shisui, sitting beside him didn’t react all.
This just goes to show how secretive the chakra search of the giant Tenseigan is. Even Shisui with the Mangekyou can’t perceive it at all.
‘This has already been the seventh time today! Why haven’t they given up yet? Wasn’t it just some tiny amount of Chakra? Why can’t they let go of this for once?’ – Kuroto thought.
He is very annoyed by this, but he knows that the last members of the Otsutsuki Clan on the Moon are all pure radicals.
Obviously, they misunderstood Hamura, thinking that the Shinobi World created by the Sage of the Six Path is nothing more than a failure, and took it upon themselves to destroy and recreate the world.
If they come to know about his existence, Kuroto can’t even to begin thinking of what might be the consequences!
Moreover, now he, who has borrowed the chakra from the Giant Tenseigan knows better than anyone, just how powerful giant Tenseigan is!
It wouldn’t be wrong to say that it is undoubtedly a supreme treasure that belongs to the Otsutsuki Clan on the moon!
Even Kuroto with the Tenseigan only barely managed to resonate with its Chakra in a near-death state, while those Otsutsuki descendants can freely use it as per their wish.
From just this alone it can be seen, that the Otsutsuki Clan on the moon has a much higher authority than the Hyuga Clan.
And if they come after him, what Kuroto would have to face will be the onslaught from the Giant Tenseigan which is thousands of times superior to him in terms of both the quality as well as quantity of chakra.
The result isn’t that hard to figure out!
Honestly, Kuroto even thinks that he is quite lucky.
Fortunately, his Tenseigan went into temporary dormancy due to Chakra exhaustion bringing back the Byakugan. Otherwise, he would have had no method to avoid giant Tenseigan’s search.
…
On the Moon.
“… Cough…!”
After a short cough Elder 1 resealed the giant Tenseigan and shook his head negatively.
When Elder 2 saw this, his brows tightened, “Still nothing?”
Elder 1 calmed down his coughs, then said slowly, “Apart from the Forbidden Spots, there is no other abnormality in the Shinobi World!”
The last descendants of Otsutsuki have desired to destroy the Shinobi world long since.
It’s just that, using Giant Tenseigan’s regular explorations of the Shinobi World, they have found several places where the light of the Tenseigan is unable to reach, therefore the Otsutsuki have close to no information about these places, and termed them collectively as ‘Forbidden Spots’!
Some of these ‘Forbidden Spots’ are densely filled by Natural Energy., some are occupied by weird extraterritorial forces, while the others have been contaminated with evil energy.
Due to these reasons, the Otsutsuki’s have hesitated to make a move up to now.
Now there aren’t many people left on the moon, except for the 3 elders, there is only a 3-year-old child named Toneri and his father left.
Their current power is not enough to smoothly destroy the entire Shinobi World, so no matter how radical they may be, the elders can only endure and choose to wait for the right opportunity, or wait for Toneri to grow up and fulfil Hamura’s wish.
Elder 3 asked at this moment, “What about the Gedo Statue? Is there any finding of it?”
Elder 3 asked this because they did manage to briefly sense the ‘Gedo Statue’ a few years ago, but before they could use the Tenseigan to search, the induction disappeared, so the Elders could only stay disappointed for not being able to find its exact location.
Elder 1 again shook his head at Elder 3’s question.
Elder 2, who is the most radical of all stood up from the futon: “Are we just going to watch and do nothing?”
Elder 3 calmly said, “We have grown too old and don’t have enough strength to fulfil Hamura’s last wish. Let Toneri take this important task. He is the most gifted child the Otsutsuki has ever witnessed, if it is him, he would definitely be able to fulfil it!”
Elder 1 tentatively suggested, “We may be able to seek help from the Hyuga Clan, after all, they also have the same blood as us!”
Elder 2 snorted coldly, “Hyuga? No! They are fallen people, they are unworthy, and their fate will be the same as the rest of the Shinobi world, they are part of the failed world created by the Sage of the Six Paths, so they too have to perish along with it!”
Elder 3 thought of suggesting that if all of the people were exterminated, then the Otsutsuki Clan on the moon which is already close to extinction wouldn’t escape this fate as well, but seeing the decisive look of Elder 2, he chooses to sigh and let go.
In the final analysis, all three of them share the same thought that the Hyuga Clan is really unworthy of being compared to the Otsutsuki Clan on the Moon…
