Chapter 683: New Understanding
Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh…
Accompanied by sharp sounds, several after-images of Kuroto appeared on the training ground filling up the otherwise empty training field.
“Yes… this is the feeling, this is what it feels like to draw out the true potential of a human’s body! This is what it feels like to use the Eight Gates Formation…!”
Although Kuroto has yet to open the third gate, however, he is no longer a stranger to the result of the first two gates, despite this, every time he opens the first two gates he feels amazed.
The more he sees and feels the changes in his body, the more he becomes addicted to this feeling.
Having been taught by Orochimaru while very young, and because of his own mental blocks because of having the memories of his previous life, Kuroto is accustomed to holding back a little… Perhaps it would be better to phrase it in a different manner, more than often, Kuroto is not able to give his hundred percent while in battle… there is always something holding him back… he has always wondered why this is the case, but to no avail until recently…
Only now has he understood the reason.
Kuroto has always been the cautious and non-reckless type of guy… Although this has allowed him to survive time and time again, this also limits him in many ways.
Well, other things aside, he has never been able to enjoy the battle of flesh and blood where he goes all out.
But ever since Kuroto started training the Eight Inner Gates, he has started to get over this problem of his.
At the end of the day, mastering the Eight Inner Gates is all about breaking the limits of body time and time again in order to tap the hidden true potential of our bodies…
To master the Eight Inner Gates, Kuroto has to exert every bit of effort he is capable of putting up and then some more… which is why; slowly but steadily, he has started to let go of his mental blocks and started to stop holding back.
And training the Eight Inner Gates Technique has been useful to him in more than just one way…
Because of being unreserved while training himself to death, what he actually wanted has started to happen… his body has started to become physically stronger, and because of becoming stronger, the Yang chakra in his body has started to balance with the Yin chakra in his body.
And considering the speed with which he is improving, Kuroto also realized one more thing, ‘It seems I still don’t completely understand my body… and this is also a very big problem.’
If shinobis can’t even understand their own body perfectly, it will become a very big hurdle for them to tread forward. After all, for shinobi, their body is their true weapon, and if someone doesn’t even understand the weapon they have how are they going to perfectly use it in the battle?
And for Kuroto, this is a bigger reason for concern compared to others… If he doesn’t understand his body and carries out Kekkei Genkai Absorption Ritual in an attempt to achieve Kekkei Mora, it is very likely that he will encounter some obstacle that will pose a very big danger to his life.
There is also the possibility of him becoming a monster like Hiruko or unstable like Danzo, which is obviously not what he wants, therefore, Kuroto has come to the understanding that he needs to renew his knowledge of himself and majorly his body…
After all, only by having complete understanding and a hundred percent control over his body will he be able to control the fusion of all the seven chakra natures and finally attain Kekkei Mora.
If he can’t even control his body as he wants, it would be in his best interest to put away the attaining the Kekkei Mora.
Realizing this, Kuroto decided to pay more attention to the changes in his body while continuing to master the Eight Gates.
For him, mastering Eight Gates is not only a means to meet chakra requirements during the ritual, and to balance the Yin and Yang chakra in his body, but also a method to method to gain a deeper understanding of the depths of his body so as to gain better control over himself.
While Kuroto was pondering over these things, Shisui appeared by his side.
Broken out of his thoughts because of Shisui’s arrival, Kuroto wiped the sweat on his body, then asked him, “Sent them away??”
Shisui nodded, “Yes… I have warned them not to come here, as this is your exclusive training field.”
Kuroto nodded lightly, then asked with a smile, “So the one who discovered me… it was Neji if I am not wrong?”
Shisui nodded, “Yes… it was him… Sasuke followed him because of curiosity and rivalry.”
“The two of them dared to come forward in such a situation… it seems they haven’t suffered hard enough…” he said, then added with a sigh, “At any rate, it seems that I have to deploy the final enchantment as early as possible, lest someone might continue to discover me while I am in the middle of training.”
Shisui chuckled and said nothing…
Kuroto shook his head helplessly, then looked at him and asked, “Anyway, putting this matter aside, did you complete the task?”
Shisui nodded with a smile, “Yes… and I didn’t face any problem…” then added, “But Kuroto-san are you sure it is the right approach to let her become part of the ninja academy?”
Kuroto nodded, “Yes… I have made this decision after giving it much thought… letting Mika enter the academy is the best choice at this time… she will grow up with Neji and Sasuke’s generation, and we will be able to keep a close watch over her…”
Shisui nodded, “Well… if you have thought about it, then I am relieved… I will complete the final measures, and soon she will transfer to the same class as Sasuke, Neji, and Naruto-kun… At the same time, Naomi-san is employed at the Ichiraku-ramen…”
Kuroto nodded, “Perfect…”
After Naomi rescued her niece with the help of Homusubi (Itachi), according to the instructions given to her by Amatsukami, she went into hiding until given further notice by the organization… Since Kuroto was busy with all sorts of things up until a few days ago, so she into hiding all this while.
Not long ago, he remembered them and thought of what to do with them.
Initially, Kuroto thought about letting them live on Ancor Vantian… but soon discarded that thought… Mika is somewhat dangerous after getting that thing… and Kuroto can’t afford to let anything happen to the floating castle as the castle has his research lab and all…
So after giving up on the first idea, Kuroto gave it much thought and finally decided to make Naomi and Mika live in Konoha.
The reason is that it will be less difficult for Naomi and Mika to adapt to the sudden changes in their life while living in Konoha, and also allow Kuroto to always keep an eye on Mika.
Moreover, Mika has to recover after all she went through… and Kuroto is somewhat concerned about her mental state after what she went through…
He believes that she needs to live in an environment that will help her overcome the trauma, and Konoha appeared to be the best choice among all the Shinobi Villages
Of course, letting the two of them become part of Konoha is not an easy thing… but Itachi and Shisui helped Kuroto solve that trouble.
The Root Base from where Mika was rescued also had an archive, and Danzo had hidden the documents that proved Mika and Naomi’s citizenship of Konoha in that archive… When Itachi and Naomi destroyed that Root base, Itachi didn’t forget to retrieve the archives with him.
Having those documents proved that both of them were born and raised in Konoha, so, the problem of not having any documents of being Konoha citizens was solved… and they were able to return to Konoha.
Of course, a lot of manipulation was done behind the scene to avoid any trouble, and Shisui used Kotoamatsukami to avoid any suspicions about the two of them, but it wasn’t that big of a deal for him especially now that he has Hachirama cells implanted in his body.
Well, after that was done, Mika also became part of the Ninja Academy.
Initially, Kuroto transferred her to a class that is never the focus of attention, and after some time, he plans to transfer Mika to Neji, Sasuke, and Naruto’s class so that she can grow up with Naruto and Sasuke’s generation.
Doing this wouldn’t be too difficult for Kuroto because he is the Principal of the Ninja Academy…
Well anyway, as for what happened to Naomi? She got a job at Ichiraku Ramen, so she along with Ayame will be serving Ramen to the customers.
