DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Forest of Death
“Well that was unexpected… am I so scary?” muttered Kuroto as he took off the Yama mask.
To be honest, Kuroto was a little unsure of how to scare off Obito and Zetsu, he was considering what to say that would make both Obito and Zetsu run away immediately so that he wouldn’t have to waste much time here.
Kuroto didn’t really think of fighting the two of them for two reasons, first is that except for him (Yama), the other members of Amatsukami around him were just Shadow Clones that might get exposed, and second, because of the presence of cameras, he couldn’t really fight, because that would expose his identity as Yama.
So, Kuroto had a headache. What he didn’t expect was that as soon as he showed up as Yama, the two of them didn’t even dare to wait long enough for him to speak anything, and immediately ran away.
“It seems that the effort I have put into building Yama’s invincible identity is not for nothing.” Said Kuroto with a smile.
After confirming that both Obito and Zetsu were really gone, and there were no other members of the Akatsuki Organization in the vicinity, Kuroto released the Shadow Clones, then turned around and looked towards a distant forest with a thoughtful expression.
A while ago, he had sensed a very strong and violent chakra fluctuation from that direction. This chakra fluctuation wasn’t unknown to Kuroto, but because of being busy dealing with Obito and Zetsu, Kuroto had no time to take care of it at that time.
Thinking of the cause, Kuroto couldn’t help but be a little worried, ‘Are Asuma and the others okay? I don’t think any of them can handle a violent Naruto.’ And disappeared from his place with a quick body flicker.
Soon, Kuroto arrived at the sight from where he sensed Nine-tails chakra.
Seeing Kuroto, Shisui hurriedly came to his side, and asked in a low voice, “Kuroto-san… is that matter resolved?”
Kakashi also appeared by Kuroto’s side, waiting for his response.
Kuroto nodded with a smile, “Yup… As I had guessed, they were only here for reconnaissance, and there was no plan to make any big move. So, when they saw so many members of Amatsukami at the same time, they turned their tails and immediately ran away.”
“Phew… thankfully, your method worked Kuroto.” Said Kakashi with a relieved sigh.
Shisui also nodded, “Hn, of course, I knew that the matter would be easily solved since it’s you.”
Because the two of them hurriedly came to stop Naruto after noticing the nine-tails chakra leaking out, they were really worried about Kuroto. Akatsuki is a far bigger threat than Naruto, and Kuroto was handling such a dangerous matter alone, if Kuroto had failed, the situation would have become extremely dangerous.
Thankfully, Kuroto’s plan worked, and they won’t have to worry about an attack from Akatsuki for the time being.
With that matter aside, Kuroto looked around the mess and asked, “So, what’s going on here? I sensed Nine-Tails chakra, and came here in a hurry.”
Shisui immediately explained the entire situation on this side, and praised Naruto, “Naruto-kun seems to have gained some control over the Nine-tails chakra… also, he can use Senjutsu as well… I was really surprised when I sensed Senjutsu Chakra in him.”
“It’s really surprising that Naruto can master Senjutsu… that too at this age… this is perhaps the first time anyone has achieved such a feat.” Said Kakashi in surprise as he looked at Naruto in the distance surrounded by his classmates.
“No doubt he is the son of Yellow Flash and Red Hot-Blooded Habanero.” Said Kuroto, not too surprised. Unlike Shisui and Kakashi, Kuroto knows the ins and outs of the matter. Gaining control over Nine-tails chakra… that’s impossible, it must have been Kurama helping out Naruto in order to not get captured by Akatsuki, there can be no other explanation.
As for Naruto mastering Senjutsu, Kuroto has known this for a very long time due to his connection with Ichikishima hime, and Ryuchi Cave.
So, what happened with Naruto might have been very surprising for others, for Kuroto, this is all within his expectations. Kuroto is very clear on the matter that Naruto has the highest potential among all his classmates, after all, he is the ‘Son of the Prophecy!’
While Kuroto, Kakashi, and Shisui were talking about things, Asuma, Kurenai, Anko, and Genma came to them after getting their injuries treated.
Waving the arm wrapped in bandages, Asuma complained to Kuroto, “Kuroto… my sacrifice is not small… don’t forget that I deserve a big treat from you!”
Kuroto said sarcastically, “What sacrifice… Asuma, you were beaten by a bunch of kids despite being a Jonin… and you dare ask me for a treat! Where is your self-respect!?”
Asuma retorted, “Are they, ordinary kids? None of them is ordinary… especially Naruto… he can summon such a giant and powerful summon… he can use Senjutsu… and he can also use Nine-tails chakra! This is not normal, he is a monster! Have you seen any other kid in your life who is so strong at such a young age?”
Hearing Asuma’s retort, Kuroto chuckled, and said while patting Asuma on the shoulder, “Okay… okay… I get it… I will definitely give all of you a big treat after this entire matter is dealt with.”
“I will be waiting.” Said Asuma, and then walked away while waving his arm.
Anko, Kurenai, and Genma said their own things and they also left.
With everyone gone, Kuroto quickly dealt with all the things, then he came to Sandaime’s side and presented a report that summarized the entire event.
After reading the report, Hiruzen said with a sigh, “Thank you for your hard work.”
For Kuroto’s approach of fooling Akatsuki, Sandaime had nothing to say because their running away is the best result for Konoha and the five great shinobi villages, after all, the shinobi world isn’t yet ready to go to war with Akatsuki.contemporary romance
As for the assessment, although it ended earlier than it was supposed to because of interference of Hiruzen and the others after Naruto used the nine-tails chakra, there was no helping it, overall, Hiruzen is still very content upon witnessing the growth of the children.
After everything was handled, Kuroto and the others returned to the village and noticed villagers gathered outside the forest of death, happily talking about Naruto’s performance in the assessment.
Unexpected summoning of Garaga, or the special Orange chakra mode Naruto used, people discussed these topics excitedly. Witnessing such things is very rare for ordinary villagers, therefore, they were very excited after seeing these things for the first time in their lives, and it can be expected that for the next few weeks and months, they will never forget what they saw.
Another topic of discussion is the bravery and fearlessness Naruto displayed in protecting his companions. He was the MVP of the assessment, and his actions in the assessment changed the opinion of many people about him.
…
In this way, a few days passed by in a flash.
The influence of the Assessment was still fermenting.
When the final results of the assessment were announced, everyone was surprised to find that the winning team turned out to be Team Ino-Shika-Cho, they collected most scrolls by the time the assessment ended. This was a surprise for many, considering that they were nowhere to be seen during the confrontation with the ‘Akatsuki’.
Other than the winning team, there was special praise for Uzumaki Naruto whose performance was the best among all the candidates.
This further, elevated Naruto’s reputation, and soon, he became famous in Konoha. Unlike earlier, this time his reputation was positive, and people started to see him in a good light.
The other shinobi villages also decided to pay more attention to the Ninja Academy of their village. They have learned a lot after watching the assessment, and they want to implement their learning in their village.
Kuroto was happy to see these changes.
But his happiness didn’t last very long as he received an unexpected notice from the Hyuga Clan, “A Clan meeting at such a time?”
