Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

Whiish! Whiish! Whiish!

Thousands of Ice needles of various sizes rained on the battlefield, some needles were as small as a sewing needle, while others were as large as metal Spears, and along with these needles, crystal clear Ice flowers also started to bloom on the Bone Spears rooted on the ground.

Under the double attack of the rain of Ice Needles and the blooming of countless Ice Flowers Garaga, Gamabunta as well as Sasuke were naturally not spared. Even if they managed to avoid getting hit by the rain of Ice Needles miraculously, the decrease in temperature brought about by the blooming of Ice Flowers affected them as their bodies started to shiver and their movement became slow.

‘Damn it… now even this person!’ thought Sasuke furiously. Being suppressed by Kimimaro had already made him very angry and dissatisfied with his own strength, now the appearance of another Otogakure Ninja who dared to not only face him but even suppress him and Gamabunta and Garaga made him unbearable and unwilling to accept.

“Uchiha are supposed to be the strongest… Shisui-nii-san is the strongest in the five great villages… how can I be so weak against someone who isn’t even from a great shinobi village!” roared Sasuke as he drew six Shuriken from his Shinobi Bag and threw them at the incoming Ice Needles while weaving the hand Signs, ‘Fire Style: Art of the Phoenix Flower!’

Under the effect of the Fire Style Jutsu, the six Shuriken were covered in flames as they tried to intercept the Ice Needles, but of course, the difference in the numbers of Fire Shuriken and Ice Needles was too massive, and to deal with that issue, Sasuke once again weaved hand signs and clapped his hands together, ‘Multiple Phoenix Flower Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!’

Suddenly, six Fire Shuriken turned into hundreds of Fire Shuriken as they resisted the Ice Needles by instantly vaporizing the Ice Needles.

Seeing all the Ice Needles vaporizing upon colliding with the Fire Shuriken, Haku was stunned, “What?” Sasuke decided not to waste this moment. Once again, he weaved the hand signs and used his strongest Fire Style Jutsu as he bellowed out massive Fire, ‘Fire Style: Majestic Demolisher!’

Now the intensity of the Jutsu Sasuke used was not as intense as Madara’s, but it was still very powerful, and as if a river of fire it instantly swept the Ice Mirror Haku was using to suspend himself in midair.

“That’s what you get for getting in my way!” snorted Sasuke while looking at the Ice Mirror engulfed in the River of Fire.

At this time, Garaga warned, “If you think that is enough to defeat the enemy you are fighting… you are in for a great surprise Uchiha boy…” then quickly left the battlefield and went to support Naruto. Though the giant red snake had a doubt in his mind, ‘Naruto had indeed pushed this guy to edge by injuring him… so how come he recovered so fast? Was it because of the orange-haired brat? Hmm, I’d better watch around for that kid, lest he would interfere with Naruto again…’

Sasuke wanted to scoff at Garaga for underestimating his Jutsu, however, as the flames disappeared, the Ice Mirror that was engulfed earlier was still suspended in the air. While it did appear to have melted a little with water droplets falling from its edges, the melting wasn’t enough to harm Haku.

This time Sasuke was stunned, “This… how is this possible?”

Majestic Demolisher consumed nearly half of his Chakra reserves and considering the intense heat that radiated from the river of Fire, let alone an Ice Mirror, even a fully frozen Ice Lake should have been vaporized by the Jutsu, yet the Ice Mirror was barely affected, and this made Sasuke wonder, “Why did nothing happen to it?”

The one to answer Sasuke’s doubt was Gamabunta, “Sasuke, the enemy you are fighting is also using Natural Energy, and unlike the other boy whose method of utilizing the Natural Energy was very crude, this one seems to have complete control over Natural Energy… it’s even better than Jiraiya!”

“Sennin Mode? Even better than Jiraiya-sama?” the surprise in Sasuke’s eyes became more intense. Senjutsu is a skill that rare few talented ninjas are capable of mastering, and it was obviously a surprise for him to learn that the Otogakure ninja in front of him is one of those rare few. “Does that mean he is even more talented and stronger than Kimimaro?”

Gamabunta nodded, “Very likely…”

“Damn!” Sasuke was in disbelief.

And feeling the numbness in his limbs because of cold and frost, Gamabunta couldn’t help and once again question, “Are you really sure that these ninjas are just Genins?”

Sasuke had no answer to Gamabunta’s question.

…

As Garaga approached Naruto, several bone spears grew trying to stab his huge body.

Initially, the one-eyed Snake thought that with the hardness of his scales, there is no way some bone spears would be able to penetrate his defenses, but it wasn’t long before his mind was changed as he felt pain all over his body.

“How? Just how?” He could not believe that some bones were able to pierce through his defense and looked at the wound, rather than a simple penetration it appeared to be part corrosion and degradation. Rather than the bones piercing through his defense, they degraded his defenses and then penetrated his body.

‘Damn it… is this Shikotsumyaku? No, that’s not possible… it’s different! It’s definitely different!’ thought Garaga as he immediately shed his skin to stop the complete degradation of his defenses. Garaga has experienced multiple battles against the members of the Kaguya Clan when he was young and had signed a Summoning contract with the Sunagakure shinobi and based on that experience; he is certain that the Shikotsumyaku the boy fighting Naruto was using is definitely different!

“Why the hell does his Shikotsumyaku have a degradation effect?” muttered Garaga with an unsure expression. He has no answer to this question and knows that he has to be very careful against Otogakure’s Shikotsumyaku user while providing assistance to Naruto.

…

Having healed Haku, Jūgo returned beside his two squamates, and said, “We might have to provide support to Kimimaro, Haku, and Guren…”

“Ehh? It is surprising that Kimimaro-sama, Haku-chan, and Guren-san are having difficulty defeating the Konoha Genins…” said Hebihime while licking her lips, though she did appear to be a little excited at the prospect of helping the strongest squad of Otogakure, and thought to herself, ‘Maybe Haku-chan would be willing to mate with me after this… ahh~’

Unaware of the thoughts in Hebihime’s mind, Iburi Yukimi with a worried expression, “Are they going to be alright?”

“Don’t worry, Yukimi-chan, just follow my command… and the mission will be completed in no time…” replied Hebihime and went on to explain the strategy that they are going to use to provide support.

“Alright, I got it, leave the smoke part to me!” nodded Yukimi while pumping her fist.

“Let’s go then…” said Jūgo and began transforming, however, before he could, a hand appeared on his shoulder from behind.

“Who?” Startled, Jūgo immediately turned around and noticed that the person who had put their hand on his shoulder was a Kunoichi with Kusagakure’s forehead protector, and he was quite certain that he did not know this Kusagakure Kunoichi which made him vigilant, ‘I did not sense her at all!’

Unlike Jūgo, Hebihime had a different reaction as she stopped herself from exclaiming loudly, instead, she muttered in a low voice, “Orochimaru-sama? What are you doing here?”

“Ehh? Orochimaru-sama?” Both Jūgo and Yukimi were takenaback.

Orochimaru did not care about the children’s reaction, nor did he bother to answer Hebihime’s question, instead he instructed them, “Do not interfere with them…”

“But Orochimaru-sama…” Jūgo and Yukimi appeared to be somewhat worried.

Before they could speak any further, Orochimaru spoke, “It’s a test… not only for the three Genins of Konoha, but also for Kimimaro, Haku, and Guren.”

“A test?” all three of Jūgo, Yukimi, and Hebihime were stunned by Orochimaru’s words, but they quickly accepted it as the most reasonable explanation for all their doubts. They understood that when Orochimaru ordered them to assassinate Uchiha Sasuke, his intention wasn’t to kill the young Uchiha, rather, it was to test him, and not just him but also Kimimaro, Haku, and Guren.

Understanding the ins and outs of the matter, Hebihime thought to herself, ‘As expected of Orochimaru-sama! He would never do something completely senseless…’

…

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

With the sound of breaking wind, Raijin, Samsara, and Tengu landed on the edge of the battlefield.

Not trying to hide himself, Raijin stood atop the crown of a tree and carefully observed the battlefield using the pair of Mangekyō Sharingan in his eye sockets. Soon, his lips underneath the mask arched into a smile.

“Well, well, well… so it seems that both Naruto and Kurama have finally begun to work together, huh?” mumbled Raijin as he sensed the powerful chakra of the Nine-tail.

Although Naruto was in the tailed beast state and had sprouted three tails, not the powerful KCM, he did seem to have a sense of self, meaning he hadn’t lost control and something like that is only possible when the nine-tail is actively lending chakra to the boy while not trying to take control over his consciousness.

‘I guess talking with the tsundere fox did work out…’ thought Raijin as he recalled his conversation with the Nine-tailed fox. ‘And now he is already capable of not only resisting but overwhelm Kimimaro even though Kimimaro has fully liberated the Cursed Seal of Earth…’

Raijin was happy to see Naruto’s performance, then turned his attention toward Mika, and thought to himself, ‘So, she was pushed to the point of needing to Summon that creature, huh? But I guess, it’s not that surprising.’ In the canon, Guren was strong enough to fight against Three-tails on her own along with five members of the Konoha Eleven and Kakashi, Yamato, and Sai. Now, it’s true that none of them went all out, but her strength is unquestionable which was evident from the fact that at one point Orochimaru had desired her body and Kekkei Genkai and would have definitely taken over it if he had the chance.

Even if the current Guren is three to four years younger compared to the Guren who fought against the three-tails, her strength is still very good, not to mention, that she seems to have access to the Cursed Seal.

‘Orochimaru-sama implanted the Cursed Seal of Heaven on her?’ thought Raijin. It’s the same Cursed Seal that Orochimaru had given to Sasuke in Canon, it’s one of the strongest Cursed Seals created by Orochimaru so the boost in power it provides Guren is also very high, and adding the fact how difficult it is to fight a user of Crystal Release Kekkei Genkai it wasn’t a surprise that Mika had to rely on that secret summon of her.

As for the Summon itself, Raijin doesn’t have much knowledge about it except for the fact that it was created by Shimura Danzō’s researchers while studying the Hashirama Cells. Compared to the version of Nue that appeared in the Boruto, this one is slightly different as it doesn’t have access to a different dimension that it resides in, which is a bit disappointing as Raijin would have loved to have access to a personal dimension.

‘In any case, she seems to be doing fine against Guren… now for Uchiha Sasuke…’ thought Sasuke as he turned his attention from Shimizu Mika to Sasuke. Compared to Naruto and Mika, Sasuke’s performance is somewhat stale.

At a glance, Raijin could that Sasuke is already tired, and his Chakra Reserves are also running out. While he seems to be angry, it’s not to the extent of creating emotional fluctuations and affecting his Sharingan.

Holding his mask, Raijin muttered with a chuckle, “The emotional stimulation is not enough, and this is a cue for me to interfere.”
