Chapter 13: Chapter - 13 The Kyuubi's Rebellion.
In the blink of an eye, three weeks passed.
And he was wrong on the part that the village would be sending a support team due to lack of the number of people at this outpost.
Kuroto was quite doubtful as to why the Konoha village did not send any support team during this period, nor was he of Anko sent on any so-called 'special mission'?
This is obviously not in line with his expectations, nor in line with common sense.
It would be understandable if there was some kind of short delay but three whole weeks? How can that be allowed? It is simply unthinkable to leave the guardpost understaffed!
This leads to only one possible scenario, at least that's what Koroto can think of.
'Could it be that something major happened in the village?'
Kuroto then searched in his memories to find the clues to figure out if there was some kind of major event that happened at this point in time, but he wasn't getting anywhere as his memories are too vague.
But suddenly a picture flashed in his mind, and he was covered in a cold sweat, he now had the answer and all could do was murmur it silently: "Nine… Nine-tailed Chaos!?"
Although he doesn't remember the exact time of Kyuubi Rebellion happened, Kuroto does know that it happened on the night of Uzumaki Naruto's birth.
Naruto's mother, Uzumaki Kushina, who was the current Kyuubi's jinchuuriki, had all the information related to her regarded as highly confidential. And someone with zero political power like Kuroto can't inquire about her status.
But this does not affect his speculation, because Hinata is about the same age as Naruto, and he has already received news that the patriarch's wife was pregnant before he left the village. If Naruto is a few months older than Hinata, then Naruto's birth should be around this period.
"Why did I forget about this!?"
At the bottom of his heart, Kuroto blamed himself.
In fact, this is also unavoidable. After all, he has been in the world of the ninjas for more than ten years, and his memory is a lot vague. In addition, he has always been under the threat of death because of his weak strength. Until recently, he neither had the ability nor any willingness to intervene in various major events, so he didn't care much about them happening in the Ninja World if they didn't involve him, and delved all his attention in finding a solid method to improve his strength.
Now it's different now. With the Tenseigan awakened, he already has the ability to intervene in many things, so now he must pay attention to every major event in the Ninja world like a real reincarnated individual in order to profit from them for his advantage.
After making a mental note for himself, Kuroto analyzed the current possible situation in the village.
If the Kyuubi Rebellion did happen, it means that the power center of the village will change drastically.
The Yondaime Hokage-sama, who was in his prime, passed away together with his wife Uzumaki Kushina who was the Kyuubi jinchuuriki, as a result of which Konoha has again lost two shinobi with Kage level Combat power. This will lead to an awkward state of the current military power of Konoha.
In the previous decade, Konoha has lost so many powerful individuals, Hayate Sakumo committed suicide, Senju Tsunade left because of experiencing severe mental trauma due to the death of her brother Senju Nawaki and lover Dan Kato, then not long ago Orochimaru defected, following which Jiraya left the village to pursue Orochimaru's tracks and now two of the most powerful shinobi have again passed away.
In current Konoha, if two-generations involving the young and the middle-aged generation, if we exclude Jiraya who is not in the village, then there is almost no one left with the combat power of Kage level.
Sandaime Hokage-sama and Shimura Danzo are the only two people with the highest raw power currently
In addition, at the time of the Kyuubi Rebellion, Kyuubi was suspected of being controlled by the Sharingan, leading the top decision-making authorities to suspect the Uchiha Clan to be responsible for this, as such the complete Uchiha Clan, an important combat force of the village was under constant surveillance and completely isolated from the rest of the village under high pressure.
All the powerful members of the Uchiha Clan were on the watch list. And based on the memories Kuroto can predict that Uchiha's infighting with the village will be inevitable.
After thoroughly analyzing the changes that Konoha will experience in its power center, Kuroto began to analyze the change in his own situation because of Kyuubi Rebellion.
There is no doubt that the left-over old subordinates of Orochimaru are no longer such a threat to the village when compared to the powerful Uchiha Clan, suspected of causing the Kyuubi rebellion.
What's more, a large number of ordinary ninjas were killed in the Kyuubi Rebellion, therefore the village has lost a lot of manpower, not only they have to rebuild the destroyed area immediately, but also deploy elite shinobi's to monitor the Uchiha clan, even if it is Konoha, strongest of the five major villages. I'm afraid that the manpower is still not so much at hand, especially because of the large number of death in the third ninja war, so it is not unreasonable to ignore the border post for some time.
............
It didn't take long for Kuroto's speculations to be confirmed true.
The village sent a message, 'Abandon the outpost', and all the staff was ordered to immediately return to the village.
After a simple cleanup, the four people at the outpost embarked on the returning journey back to the village. On the way, Kuroto secretly rejoiced, feeling that he was lucky, that Sasori did not find him for such a long time.
In fact, Kuroto was thinking about this matter.
It was actually an accident that resulted in him seizing up Sandaime KazeKage's puppet, Kuroto obviously didn't do it intentionally, and even if he did, he doesn't think he could have achieved it.
Kuroto is clear about this, but he doesn't know whether Sasori is clear about this or not.
In the eyes of Sasori, Kuroto's Rein Wheel Pull and the technique of manipulating puppets without the Chakra line or need for printing hand signs are really weird, which caused him to misestimate the strength ofKuroto, mistakenly believe that Kuroto's strength is at least the level of an elite jonin, therefore Sasori might have directly ignored some random border outpost that generally doesn't have any elite-jonin personnel as staff for keeping watch unless there is some emergency period which was obviously not the case at that time.
This is because according to common sense, border outposts that are mainly used for early warning will not deploy elite jonin.
As a result, the border post where Kuroto was located became a state of 'black under the lights', but it also became the safest place for him. This is why the Sasori has not been able to find Kuroto up until now.
Rushing all the way hurriedly, the four finally returned to the village a week later.
The village at this time is simply a big construction site, everywhere busy workers can be seen, various scaffoldings were spread throughout, transport vehicles were continuously coming and going.
Anko asked Kuroto with a little confusion while pointing towards the damaged city walls in the distance: "What happened in the Village?"
The two suspected root ninjas who were traveling with them seemed to know some news, but looking at the scene in front of them, they still showed surprises in unison.
Obviously, the damage to the village far exceeded their previous expectations.
Kuroto was also surprised at this moment.
Although it has long been known that the Kyuubi Rebellion brought deep bone marrow damage to Konoha, the dilapidated scene of the village still made it difficult for him to adapt for a while.
You must know that even in the three shinobi wars that have occurred since Konoha's establishment, and the village never once suffered such severe losses!
After arriving at the task center, the four of them disbanded after a brief task handover.
Kuroto, who was finally freed for the first time in months, is not idle but inquired about the changes in the village.
Before long, he collected a lot of information.
First of all, the exact time when the Kyuubi Rebellion occurred was about a month ago. If you count the time, it happened to be within a few days before or after, Kuroto encountered Sasori at the border.
Secondly, in the turmoil of just one night, the village lost more than 20 elite jonins and hundreds of chunin and genin ninjas. Almost all the ninja families in the village suffered casualties. It is said that the funeral alone lasted for a whole week.
In the end, several blocks that had been ravaged by the Kyuubi were completely razed to the ground. The casualties of civilians are hard to estimate. Even now, there are still many civilians whose bodies have not been found.
After collecting enough information, Kuroto returned home full of thoughts.
This guy Obito is no stranger to Kuroto, because, among the classmates of the same period, there were few who can barely be defeated by Kuroto, and Obito was one of them.
And now such a person has grown strong enough to fight Yondaime Hokage-sama while controlling Kyuubi simultaneously and control the entire Ninja World in the palm of his hands as the backstage big BOSS and that too with just single mangekyo sharingan.
To be honest, Kuroto is really upset, this is too frustrating, even if Obito had the Uchiha Madara's inheritance with him or Zetsu helping him out to some extent.
However, although Kuroto was upset, and he also knew in his heart that now that Obito had Mangekyo Sharingan and Hashirama's cells implanted in him, he was no longer the tail of crane, so Obito can't be treated similarly to how he used to be during their ninja academy days.
At the same time, Kuroto also has an ambition in his heart.
Since Obito can stir wind and rain in the entire ninja world with just a single mangekyo, then why can't he who has finally awakened the Tenseigan get out of merely being an audience and step on the stage and control the ninja world as he wants?
Decide the trajectory of the flow of events as per his whims?
Or
Simply change the face of this forsaken world into how he sees it fit to be?

Chapter 14: Chapter-14 Ambitions!
When something called 'ambition' burned in his heart, Kuroto thoughts became more agile.
White Fang, the Kage-level powerhouses of Sannin's generation, either died, left, defected, or escaped. Now there is only Jiraiya left who is not ambitious for taking the position of Hokage.
Among the Kage-level powerhouses of Yondaime Hokage-sama and second-generation Kyuubi jinchuuriki's generation, there were only Hokage-sama and Kyuubi jinchuuriki themselves with true Kage level combat power, others of the same generation like the Hyuga Hiashi, Uchiha Fugaku, and other Patriarch, although not bad in terms of strength but still can not be classified as true Kage level in combat effectiveness.
This simply reveals the loss of talent Konoha experienced due to several losses. This is a huge period of crises for the current Konoha, but for Kuroto, it's the Golden opportunity of a lifetime.
Because for him, the only real competitors are Kakashi, Gai, Asma, Shisui, Itachi, and other ninjas of the same generation.
And out of these both Shisui and Itachi, the two powerful ninjas of the younger generation are of the Uchiha Clan, because of the tension between the Uchiha Clan and the village, the stronger their strength, the more cautious village authorities will be against them, so they can be excluded from posing any competition.
"In the future, this will be my stage!"
Kuroto is very sure of this in his heart, and this is not only his confidence in himself but also his hope for the future!
Kuroto now faces only two problems stopping him from taking the position of Hokage.
First is his Tensigan: Although the Hyuga clansmen generally do not activate Byakygan when in the village, but if someone happens to activate Byakugan in his presence, then his Tenseigan will be exposed immediately, after all, there is a clear difference between Tenseigan and Byakugan.
The second problem is his identity: Kuroto was Orochimaru's old subordinate.
Kuroto hasn't come up with any good solution to deal with the first problem, since he can't deactivate Tenseigan so the best he can do is to temporarily avoid the Hyuga clansmen.
As for the second problem, considering the shortage of manpower in the village right now, and now that the attention of the village leaders will be directed towards the Uchiha Clan, Kuroto feels that it might not be too difficult for him to solve it as long as he works properly.
But then Kuroto's face sank again, the status of a chunin promoted during wartime is too low, anyone can step on them as long as it is for their convenience.
Because of the experience during the past few months, Kuroto was really fed and aggrieved, the helplessness he felt, the resentment and anger for becoming a cleansing target, and the sorrow brought by the helplessness in being unable to do anything made him understand one simple truth.
If you don't want to be stepped on, then climb to the highest stair.
"In Konoha, I need a different status, a status completely different from the mediocre one I had in the past!" And when Kuroto thought of a method to improve his status, Kuroto subconsciously thought of Yondaime Hokage-sama.
Yes, Yonndaime-sama is the best representative of the story of a mere civilian ninja becoming someone to be highly revered by all the ninjas alive in the current ninja world.
If Yondaime-sama's characteristics have to be summarized, then Kuroto's mind instantly thinks of the words, Powerful, Sunny, and high-profile'.
The crueler the war the more dazzling he appears.
In fact it won't be wrong to say that the third shinobi world war was the stage that allowed Namikaze Minato to obtain the position of Konoha's Yondaime Hokage, the highest authority of a Konoha, even though he was born as a civilian.
Now that the was is over, Kuroto must also develop a higher profile than Yondaime Hokage-sama if he wants to gain a huge reputation.
He must show up in front of everyone with an incomparable strong posture so that everyone can understand his power so that when people consider Hokage's successor, he will subconsciously flash in their minds.
Of course, the change of personal settings needs to be done step by step and should not be rushed, otherwise, it will inevitably arouse suspicion among the village leaders.
After making up his mind, Kuroto no longer delays and immediately moves.
In peacetime, the fastest way to show off your talent is through task completion, and a good-looking task resume is also an important basis for promotion.
After making up his mind, Kuroto immediately came to the mission center.
Compared with usual, today's mission center is slightly deserted.
When he came to the counter, Kuroto said to the staff responsible: "I am Chunin Hyuga Kuroto. Could you please show me which B-level tasks can be claimed!"
The staff verified Kuroto's identity and handed him a task list: "These are all B-level tasks. You'd better pick the first few pages. Those employers are waiting in a hurry."
Kuroto also knew that there was a serious shortage of manpower in the village right now, and many tasks were overstocked, so he didn't say much, and immediately checked the task list.
The village's classification of tasks is very rigorous. Jonin can accept all tasks including S-level, Chunin can only accept B-level to D-level tasks, and lower-level Ninja can only accept C-level to D-level tasks.
These tasks are further explained:
S-level tasks are generally commissioned by certain forces, mainly assassinating important personnel, stealing confidential information, etc.
Most of the A-level missions are also commissioned by certain forces, mainly protecting key personnel and crusade against traitors.
B-level to D-level tasks are generally commissioned by individuals, of which B-level and C-level tasks will encounter combat, and D-level tasks will not have combat.
Since Kuroto is Chunin, and he has the strength of a Tokubetsu Jonin without using Sandaime Kazekage's puppet, so choosing the B-level mission is the most suitable choice.
After briefly checking the task list, Kuroto frowned.
The tasks on the task list are nothing in terms of difficulty, but most of the tasks have requirements for the number of people. The least demanding of them also requires a team of at least two ninjas to receive.
At this time, a short figure appeared in front of the working window next to Kuroto.
Kuroto glanced at it from the side of the light, and then he was taken aback.
This little guy is none other than, the genius of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Itachi!
Although he was only six or seven years old, Itachi had already shown maturity far beyond his age at this time, the little guy looked was more mature than many adults from his thought process, and here he was quietly flipping through the task list rigorously.
After a while, Itachi handed the task list back to the staff and asked a little childishly: "Excuse me, is there no C-level task that can be claimed by a single person?"
The staff at the window of Itachi seems to have been used to dealing with the Uchiha clan. He was not surprised that a six or seven-year-old child asked to receive a C-level task alone. He just shook his head normally: "No, you have to think about it. If you receive a C-level mission, you should find a ninja you know to form a team."
Hearing this, Itachi was a little distressed, and whispered: "It seems that I can only wait for Shisui to return to the village."
Kuroto smiled: "Hey kid, you haven't graduated yet?"
Itachi replied politely: "Because of the reconstruction, the school took a four-month vacation."
Kuroto did not expect that the Ninja School was also destroyed in the Kyuubi Rebellion, and said, "Since it's a holiday, stay at home. It's dangerous for you to go on a mission alone."
Itachi replied with a serious face: "Now the village is understaffed, and many tasks are backlogged. If no one is doing it for a long time, it will have a great impact on the prestige of the village,"
Kuroto was startled, not knowing what to say for a while.
After taking a look at Kuroto, Itachi asked, "Excuse me, senpai, are you Chunin?"
Kuroto nodded.
Itachi smiled with joy: "Senpai, are you short of a teammate? My name is Uchiha Itachi. Although I haven't graduated yet, I am already a qualified ninja."
Kuroto shook his head and said: "I want to take on a B-level mission, you are not suitable."
At this moment, the village was suspicious of the Uchiha clan. Kuroto's personal troubles have not been completely eliminated yet, so he didn't want to have anything to do with the Uchiha clan.
Itachi said quickly: "I have checked the B-level mission, and there is no mission that a single person can take, so you must also need a member, senpai."
Kuroto pondered for a while and felt that in the future it was indispensable to deal with the powerful Uchiha clan, so it was necessary to understand the Uchiha clan's fighting methods in advance.
Itachi is one of the most dazzling genii in this generation in Uchiha clansmen, and establishing a personal relationship with him earlier may have some unexpected benefits.
After calculating all these thoughts, with a smile, Kuroto who had an idea said: "Okay, but everything must be under my instructions, and you can't act without authorization."
Itachi hurriedly bowed to Kuroto: "Please rest assured, senpai."
