Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

After obtaining the sample of Deidara’s cells, Tsukihi returned to a nearby location with no one present in the immediate vicinity, there she transferred the soul back to the main, and then Kuroto, after making sure that no one was watching him, activated the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, and quickly made his way towards Ancor Vantian, the floating fortress, Amatsukami Organization’s current unofficial base, and Kuroto’s main laboratory.

Oh, and Gaara and Karin’s current home.

“Kuroto-sama… welcome back…” As soon as Kuroto returned to the fortress, he was greeted by the excited Karin, and cheerful Gaara, both of whom greeted him respectfully.

Noticing the two kids, Kuroto’s thoughts halted for a moment, immediately his figure disappeared from his position and as it secretly arrived in front of Gaara, he threw a punch at Gaara.

Gaara instinctively leaped back, at the same time, sand around him gathered and took the form of a small sand shield that tried to block Kuroto’s fist…

Bang!

Lo and behold, it actually succeeded, Kuroto’s fist met the small sand shield and came to a sudden stop as a low muffled sound echoed in the passageway.

“It felt like I am hitting an iron wall… That’s progress…” he muttered with a surprised expression, his words were genuine as he was really surprised that the momentum that his fist carried completely disappeared as his hand struck the sand shield.

In the punch just now, although Kuroto had used only about five to ten percent of his physical strength–that too without using any Chakra amplification, without a doubt, even this much strength is higher than the best punch of a typical mid-rank chunin, and for Gaara–who is only a kid at this point–this punch was still quite heavy, yet he was able to block it with perfect reaction and timings… speaks volume of the hard work he is doing and the improvements he has done.

What surprised Kuroto more is that Gaara’s sand-controlling ability has also improved, therefore, the amount of sand he is able to easily lift, and the speed with which he can move all the sand around him has also increased.

It must not be forgotten that the Shukaku in Gaara’s body has been completely sealed by Kuroto, so no form of communication or help or guidance is possible through it, and even in this situation if Gaara is now able to control sand to this extent without feeling any strain, it can only mean that he has been training really hard in the past few months.

For doing hard work, the least he deserves is praise, and Kuroto didn’t want to take away this right from Gaara, therefore, he did what he should do… He smiled, then retracted his hand and praised Gaara, “Very good, from your reaction and the perfect time at which you blocked my fist, I can see that you haven’t been lazying around in my absence…”

Gaara, who has rarely been praised by anyone blushed in embarrassment, and said while scratching his hair shyly, “Kuroto-sama… you… you are praising me too much, I haven’t yet done anything praiseworthy…”

Kuroto smiled slightly, and said nothing in reply…

Internally, he was evaluating Gaara’s current strength in comparison to other kids his age, ‘Since Shukaku has been sealed, so losing control over himself is no longer a possibility, although this increases the chances of dying in the worst situation, nonetheless, his analysis ability and dependence on Shukaku has also disappeared.

And from the speed and with which he is reacting and defending against, the attacks, his current strength should be at the level of a low-level Chunin, which is not much different from the strength of Uchiha Sasuke, now that I think about it…

But, if a battle is conducted between the two, the chances of Sasuke winning the battle are slightly higher, this is obviously because of Sasuke’s Sharingan, and better battle analytical ability, which Gaara’s mind has yet to develop…’

Even without the power of Shukaku, Gaara is one of the most talented children in this era, so there shouldn’t have been much difference between Sasuke and Gaara’s strength…

It’s just that Sasuke has experienced the humiliation of losing to Kimimaru in the presence of the entire village which resulted in the awakening of his Sharingan, and later he has also undergone Shinichi’s brutal combat training that gave him quite a lot of combat experience, so, he might be able to outwit Gaara and manage to win against him at this point in time, but otherwise, both of them should have the relatively same strength, and it would be a tough toe-to-toe battle.

But all of this doesn’t matter now… what’s important is that Gaara is making progress, and improving at a faster speed compared to what Kuroto had expected and planned, and that’s all that matters.

After reviewing Gaara’s progress, he turned his head and looked at Karin who was standing on the side.

Seeing that Kuroto’s attention was on her, Karin hurriedly said, “Kuroto-sama, I have mastered all the seals you have taught me until now, I have also finished my homework, and you can see for yourself, I have also lost a lot of weight…”

Kuroto held his chin, and nodded after observing Karin’s body, “That’s true indeed…”

Karin proudly folded her hands over her chest, and said, “You see, I am also not lazing around… and I too am training extremely hard so that I can be useful to you.”

Kuroto nodded towards her, “Very good, I have high expectations from you…”

“Yes.” Karin nodded excitedly.

There was no need to think much about Karin, amongst all the Kunoichi in the training of her age, she is undoubtedly the strongest at this point… no one, almost no one can match her… in fact, even in the history of all the Kunoichi, perhaps only Tsunade-hime might have had such strength when she was so young.

So, Kuroto wasn’t all that worried about Karin’s growth…

Karin’s Uzumaki background already gave her ample potential, now all she has to do is realize it, and she would undoubtedly become one of the strongest Kunoichi in the history of the entire Shinobi World.

Kuroto smiled, then thought of something, and said, “Both of you, train well, after I feel that both of you have good enough strength, I will take the two of you to gain practical experience, and also let both of you understand what a real genius is like…”

Both Gaara and Karin nodded, “We will do our best to not let you down.”

With that, Kuroto left the two kids to their devices and the Kazekage puppet watching over them and made his way towards his laboratory.

As soon as he entered his main laboratory, Kuroto looked at the neatly arranged new devices and machinery with an excited expression.

This is the result of his hard work, recently he has used a lot of funds from his pockets in buying new equipment.

The hundreds of millions of Ryo, that a person can’t even spend in his lifetime, Kuroto spent it all in just a few days.

Previously almost all the machinery in his laboratory was second-hand, but now, that’s no longer the case…

Since Amatsukami has become the strongest organization in the shinobi world, a lot of secret channels that weren’t previously open to Amatsukami have now opened up, and Kuroto used all these channels to completely upgrade his laboratory.

The result of doing all this is that today, Kuroto’s laboratory is no inferior to that of Danzo’s laboratory.

And he is going to use all these machines to complete his Project Godhood.
