Chapter 380: Kusagakure’s Internal Strife

The door was opened by Yui, “Who is it…? Hmm, aa… re, it’s Kakashi-san… it has been a while… how have you been?”

Kakashi nodded lightly, “Fine… thanks for asking. Is Kuroto at home?”

Yui nodded with a cheerful smile, “Of course, he is… come on in, Kuroto-kun is in his study…”

Kakashi nodded, and after wearing house slippers given to him by Yui, he went to the upper floor where Kuroto’s study is located.

Kuroto had of course noticed Kakashi’s arrival, and made sure that nothing he does not want to show to Kakashi was out in the open.

After welcoming Kakashi to his study, Kuroto folded the scroll he was studying, then said, “I heard that you have been extremely busy these days Kakashi.”

Kakashi nodded with a droopy expression.

Compared to Guy who mostly has an energetic expression, Kakashi always looks downcast.

Although Kakashi nodded, he did not touch the matter of Tactical Division or anything even remotely related to it. Neither did Kuroto ask.

After a while of casual discussion, Kuroto asked, “How is your condition now Kakashi?”

During the raid, Itachi had used Tsukukomi on Kakashi to neutralize him, but Itachi also made sure to not torture Kakashi too much, just enough to stop Kakashi from interfering.

Kakashi was silent upon hearing Kuroto’s question, then after a while, he said, “Tsunade-sama has returned to the village… she helped in curing the psychological damage… although the damage done to me was not that serious, it could have been worse, if Homusubi truly wanted to kill me, he could have killed me with little ease, the Genjutsu he used had no counter.”

Kuroto nodded, even in the Naruto plot, it was Senju Tsunade who healed the psychological damage done to Kakashi and Sasuke by the use of Tsukuyomi.

As for the matter of there being no counter to Itachi’s Tsukuyomi, it is debatable.

During the battle between brothers, Uchiha Sasuke managed to break free of Itachi’s Tsukuyomi. Itachi had once stated that only someone with Sharingan and Kekkei Genkai can break free of Tsukuyomi, but is that really true? Kuroto doesn’t think that’s true. The only reason Sasuke managed to break free of Tsukuyomi was that Itachi never had any intention of killing Sasuke. Moreover, Obito also said to Sasuke that if Itachi had truly wanted to kill him, then he would have been dead by now.

Therefore, just having Sharingan, and Kekkei Genkai is not enough to break free of Tsukuyomi.

But it’s not that it can not be broken free. Perhaps with Kotoamatsukami, it is possible to break free of Tsukuyomi. After all, ultimately Tsukuyomi is a Genjutsu, and a Genjutsu can be overwritten or reflected by another Genjutsu, the other Genjutsu needs to be strong enough and Kotoamatsukami is in fact strong enough.

There are also other methods, a perfect Jinchuriki might also be able to break free of Tsukuyomi, this is because the amount of Charka a perfect Jinchuriki has access to is way too much. And if the Tsukuyomi plane is flushed with a very high amount of Chakra, then it might indeed be possible to break free of Tsukuyomi.

Someone with much higher Ocular Power than the caster should also be able to break free of Tsukuyomi.

So, it is possible to break free of Tsukuyomi, but there are a few various requirements for it, only someone who can fulfill those requirements can break free of Tsukuyomi, others can not, Kakashi can not.

But Kuroto doesn’t care about that, what Kuroto cares about is the other news Kakashi gave him just now. That is, ‘Tsunade-sama has returned.’, and hearing this news, Kuroto’s eyes lit up.

“Tsunade-sama has returned, huh?” – Kuroto muttered.

Kakashi nodded, “The main reason for her return is the treatment of Elder Chiyo and Elder Ebizo, not many people are aware of her return, and there is also no guarantee if she will stay in the village for long enough… or will she leave again.”

Kuroto said, “Since she has returned to Konoha, so I don’t think that she will leave, moreover, it will be dangerous for her to stay out as she can be targeted by Akatsuki or Amatsukami, so I don’t think that Hokage-sama will allow her to leave even if she wants to.”

Her return was obviously inevitable, under Hokage-sama’s order, she has to comply.

Now what Kuroto cares about is how to persuade Tsunade into taking Yui as a disciple.

There are countless talented shinobi who want to be trained by a Sannin, but not everyone has that advantage. Especially in the case of Senju Tsunade, because of her trauma. Tsunade has only ever accepted Shizune as her apprentice, and that too because of her being Dan Kato’s niece. If not for that, then there are chances that even Shizune might not have been accepted as a disciple.

‘If I remember correctly, Tsunade-sama advocated the inclusion of Iryo-nin in all four-man shinobi squads after her otouto Senju Nawaki’s death… Although Sandaime-sama agreed with her, he couldn’t dedicate resources for this purpose… the situation is still the same, so what happens if Hyuga Clan were to support her in this matter?

Konoha needs Iryo-nin now more than ever… and if in such a situation Hyuga Clan supports her… then I don’t think she would refuse to take Yui as a disciple… and this will also increase Hyuga Clan’s influence in Konoha… at least, Tsunade-sama will support the Hyuga Clan.’ – this was Kuroto’s thought.

‘And if even this approach doesn’t work, there is always the option of gambling… Against someone being called the Legendary Sucker, Kuroto has hundred percent confidence that he can win the gamble… There is also the approach of bribing her, despite being filthy rich, I don’t believe she will be able to refuse the temptation of millions of Ryo in hard cash… because, for a gambling addict who always loses, there is always a shortage of money no matter how rich she might have been born.’

Money has always been against the legendary Sucker… Kuroto even wonders if the reason why Tsunade decided to return to the village is because of the countless debts.

At this time Kuroto asked, “By the way where is Guy?”

Kakashi answered, “Guy is on a mission to Kusagakure.”

Kuroto muttered with a frown, “To Kusagakure…?”

Kakashi nodded, “Hmm, Hokage-sama has sent Two Shinobi Teams, one to Kusagakure and the other one to Takigakure… The reason for sending the team to Takigakure is to warn their village about Akatsuki’s intention of capturing all Bijuu, as well as forming an alliance with Takigakure.”

Kuroto nodded, ‘this is a natural thing to do’, then questioned, “And what about Kusagakure?”

At the mention of Kusagakure, Kuroto’s face sank, “According to the secret intel we have received, Kusagakure has been divided into two factions, and the situation has become rather tense… Among them, one of the factions wants to cooperate with Akatsuki Organization to subvert the five great shinobi villages to eventually rule over the shinobi world, while the other faction is in opposition to this… but the second faction has been unable to suppress the radical faction… thus they have asked for support from Konoha and wants to establish an alliance with us to resist the Akatsuki and their radical faction.”

“So Guy is leading the mission to support the moderate faction and capture or eliminate the radical faction?” – Kuroto asked.

Kakashi shook his head, and said, “That was the mission initially, the recent intel is that the rebel faction has completely disappeared… as if not even a single trace was left of them… The leaders of Kusagakure think that the radical faction has been secretly planning something big for a very long time, as for what that something exactly is, it is yet to be known. And since the radical faction has disappeared therefore no clue of them is left. So Guy’s mission now is to figure ‘that something’ out if he can… else complete the matter of alliance and escort the representatives of Kusagakure to Konoha for a discussion with Hokage-sama.”

Kuroto was silent upon hearing this news.

‘The radicals of Kusagakure wants to subvert the current pattern of Shinobi world and want to rule over it… huh? And they have the confidence to be able to cooperate with the Akatsuki Organization…? There could only be one thing that can give them enough confidence…’

And it has to be Box of Ultimate Bliss.

Box of Ultimate Bliss is a mystery… even in the Naruto Canon, there was not much information about it… the only thing that is known was that the Box of Ultimate Bliss can grant any and all wish of the caster… but it was later confirmed that this was just a myth. In reality, the box simply corrupts whatever enters within its confines.

It was said that the Box of Ultimate Bliss has such powers that it once allowed its previous users to take over the entire world during the era of Rikudo Sennin.

Aside from that, who is its creator? How it came to be? What exactly is that thing? Why was it created? How was it created? et cetera is unknown.

It requires an immense amount of Chakra to open the box and once opened, a monster comes out of it that is very difficult to defeat as even Uzumaki Naruto while using Sennin Mode, along with the rest of Konoha – 11, Godaime, Yamato, and others with their power were unable to defeat the monster named Satori.

Since the Box of Ultimate Bliss requires a very large amount of chakra, therefore, sources of obtaining such large chakra are very limited, Bijuus are the best source. Kusagakure doesn’t have a Bijuu in their village, but Akatsuki does, then have Nibi in their hands.

‘But can Kusagakure really control the monster Satori?’ – Kuroto doesn’t think that they can. The past users may have been able to control the monster Satori, but Kusagakure shouldn’t be able to… In fact, they did not even know what the Box of Ultimate bliss truly was, much less control it.

Kuroto sighed, ‘It’s going to be troublesome, Akatsuki alone is too much, now others are working with them… I have a lot of work to do.’

After some more discussion about various topics, Kakashi left.

…

At night.

“Yui… what do you think about learning Iryo Ninjutsu from Tsunade-sama?” – Kuroto suddenly questioned Yui.

“What…? But Tsunade-sama is not in Konoha… so how will she teach me Iryo Ninjutsu?” – Yui asked in confusion.

Kuroto said, “Oh about that, Kakashi informed me that Tsunade-sama has returned to Konoha.”

“What…?! Is that really true?” – Yui was surprised, the return of Tsunade-hime means a very big thing.

Kuroto nodded, “Hmm, she has returned, tell me what do you think?”

Yui hurriedly said, “Of course, I would love to, is that even a question? But will she even accept an apprentice?” – Is there a single Kunoichi in Konoha who doesn’t idolize Sannin Tsunade-hime? Who wouldn’t want to learn from her?

Kuroto said with a smile, “Don’t worry, she will accept you.”

Yui asked with a frown, “What gives you so much confidence Kuroto-kun?”

Kuroto said, “I will have a talk with Hiashi-sama, it should work out. Besides the village is in need of better Shinobi and Kunoichi… So Tsunade-sama shouldn’t refuse without any good reason.”

Yui mumbled, “If you say so.”
