Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

Somewhere else in the Forest of Death

Once the bright flash vanished, Orochimaru swiftly turned around and leaped to the top of the tallest nearby tree. From there, he gazed at the battlefield where all that Lightning was coming from with a hint of fear flickering in his eyes. “Even a top-tier Jōnin couldn’t pull off this kind of Lightning Release Ninjutsu… Could it be Darui from Kumogakure? But who could have pushed him to this extent? Deidara, perhaps?”

Unaware that he had forgotten the name of Raijin, whose prowess he had witnessed firsthand against Team Kakashi, as a result, Orochimaru found himself filled with numerous doubts all at once.

But he quickly pushed aside his curiosity and redirected his focus to the battlefield, where Sasuke and Kimimaro were locked in combat.

No matter how powerful a ninjutsu is, he no longer cares much about it. The only topics he is interested in at the moment are Kinjutsu, Senjutsu, Kekkei Genkai, and the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.

While this change in his mentality goes against his initial goal of learning all Jutsu, it is what it is.

…

Clang! clang! clang!

The sharp blade of the Kusanagi Sword kept hitting the bone blade over and over, making sparks fly and creating loud clashing sounds as they collided.

Sasuke and Kimimaro, with their Kusanagi Sword and bone blades, moved like ghosts through the dark forest, locked in a fierce battle. Both of them are lightning-fast and incredibly skilled in close combat, with fierce and deadly moves.

In close combat, the slightest mistake could mean defeat or even death, as such, both of them needed to be extremely focused.

Whether it was the bright flash a few moments ago, or the constant streaks of lightning flashing in the surroundings along with thundering noise, it did not disturb the two of them. It seemed like they only had eyes for each other at that moment.

And not far away…

Trapped inside the Ice Dome, Naruto looked around at the smooth ice walls that were like mirrors.

“What Jutsu is this?” a part of him wondered, but the other part quickly shook his head, “No matter what this is… I must break out of it immediately; I can’t allow Sasuke to deal with that kind of dangerous guy by himself!”

At this time, Haku’s figure appeared in one of the Ice Mirrors. He looked at Naruto trapped inside the dome, and spoke, “Please rest assured, I won’t hurt you. When the matter is over, I will release you.”

Naruto asked with a confused expression, “Why are your friends trying to kill Sasuke?”

Through his ability to detect malicious intent, Naruto was certain that Haku had no ill will against him, therefore, he couldn’t help but ask.

Haku was silent for a moment, then shook his head, “I am sorry, Naruto-kun, I can’t tell you the reason, but you can rest assured that after Kimimaro kills Uchiha Sasuke-kun, I will release you immediately, and your third friend is also safe, Guren will not hurt her… so please be patient for a while.”

“Do you think of me as an idiot? Do you think we will just watch as you kill Sasuke… Sasuke is my friend; I would do anything to protect him!” after making such a declaration, Naruto was no longer curious about the Ice walls and started to weave the hand signs, ‘Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!’

…

Somewhere else in the Forest of Death

‘Water Style: Exploding Water Colliding Wave!’

‘Water Style: Water Severing Wave!’

‘Water Style: Great Waterfall Jutsu!’

One after another, large-scale water-style Jutsus were used by Karatachi Tamako of the Kirigakure squad.

‘Magnet Style: Magnet Wall!’

‘Eight Trigrams: Vacuum Wall Palm!’

In the face of Karatachi Tamako’s attack, Neji and Itsuki had to work together to defend, but it wasn’t easy. In fact, Neji was still somewhat fine, but Itsuki was finding it very hard to resist. Because of all the rain, the Iron Sand had become very heavy, so controlling it had become very difficult.

“Even the heavens have blessed us, it would be best for the six of you to give up!” said Tamako as she once again began to weave hand signs for the next Jutsu.

“Hime-sama is right… Konohagakure should give up their scroll, don’t worry, we will spare your lives!” said Suigetsu with a grin as he enlarged his arms using Great Water Arm Jutsu, then slashed Kubikiribōchō at Kiyomi and Rock Lee.

“Damn it… this guy is simply immune to physical damage…!” cursed Kiyomi as she used a Kunia to defend against Suigetsu’s Kubikiribōchō.

‘Konoha Leaf Hurricane!’ Rock Lee attacked Suigetsu, but his kick went right through Suigetsu’s body, dealing no damage.

“Useless…” grinned Suigetsu as he completely ignored Rock Lee, and once again slashed at Kiyomi.

Kiyomi leaped behind with a backflip to dodge Suigetsu’s attack, then in midair, she weaved the hand signs, and shot several small Fireballs in Suigetsu’s direction, ‘Fire Style: Flaming Meteors!’

“It’s useless…” Suigetsu did not even need to dodge the small fireballs as by the time they reached him, all the heavy rain already extinguished them.

Landing back on the ground, Kiyomi sighed, “I wish I had learned Lightning Nature Transformation…”

On the other side, Temari state wasn’t very good either, though it was still somewhat better than Kiyomi and Rock Lee. At least, their attacks were connecting with Chōjūrō, but… the overall situation wasn’t too good for them either.

On one hand, the power of Water Style Jutsu becomes extremely strong in the presence of a water source. Everywhere they look, it’s only rain and water, so the difficulty of using Water Style has become very low for the Kirigakure squad as they are able to create large-scale Jutsu with low Chakra consumption. On the other hand, all the rain has made it impossible for her to use her Scorch Style.

As Shira and Temari defended against the two halves of Chōjūrō’s Hiramekarei using their fists, and the Giant Folding Fan respectively. But because Temari’s physical strength was not as good as Shira’s, so she was quickly pushed back and collided with Kiyomi making them both lose their balance and fall.

“What are you doing?” Kiyomi glared at Temari.

“I can’t control where I fall!” Temari returned the glare.

The two kept glaring at each other for a while before they sighed and stood up once again. If not for the fact that they both were fighting Kirigakure ninjas, they might have started to fight each other, but they had to restrain themselves.

“This rain is only making things easier for them and difficult for us!” muttered Neji as he tried to approach Tamako.

…

Back on Raijin’s side

Even under the heavy rain, the battlefield where the Black Lightning and White Lightning had just collided was filled with smoke and steam!

Leaning on a tree trunk that only had half of it left and was completely burnt, Raijin climbed up from the ground. While panting heavily, he looked at the opposite side and said, “It was so dangerous!”

The opposite side also just got up. Darui looked extremely embarrassed.

The confrontation between the Black Lightning and the White Lightning just now was a fight for both sides, with neither of them getting any advantage. This result once again convinced him that the opponent’s White Lightning was no less inferior to his own Black Lightning.

Darui nodded, “Right, that’s why, we should stop here!”

Although he was also injured, he had just mastered the White Lightning through the Single Nature Transformation of the Lightning Chakra Nature, so Raijin was in high spirits at the moment, and spoke to Darui, “Okay, you admit defeat and surrender, and we’ll stop here.”

“Is that really the case…” After sighing, Darui looked up at the dark clouds with lightning and thunder in the sky, “Raijin, you will regret it!”

Raijin also looked up at the dark clouds above his head, and chuckled, “Do you know why my name is Raijin?”
