nWith that decision, next Kuroto wrapped some bandages over the pubic area and the pair of breasts to keep them affixed and not become a problem while carrying out intensive movements and training, and after putting over on a simple robe he found in the lab, he walked barefoot towards the detached laboratory where Uchiha Ryota was detained.

nByakugan!

nIn the vision of Byakugan, Kuroto found that the two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan in the eye sockets of Uchiha Ryota are already past the preliminary fusion.

nAnd because two eyeballs are midway through the fusion process, so together they appear to be a little bloated and have an overall elliptical outline.

n

"Sigh, the speed of fusion is still much slower than I expected.

" – Shaking his head in disappointment, Kuroto left the laboratory.

nAt this time, Kuroto thought on his way towards the main lab,

"On genetic fusion technology, Orochimaru is also an expert, maybe I should ask some knowledge and insight from him.

"

nGene fusion is not a new field of science, as gene fusion experiments were even carried out during the era of Nidaime Hokage's rule, after the death of Shodaime-sama, many of the Senju clansmen volunteered in the experimentations to be able to inherit Shodaime-sama's Wood Release Kekkei Genkai by fusing his cells into their body, but without exception, all of them failed.

nThese experiments were, of course, carried out in secrecy and the general public is not aware of this knowledge, after Nidaime-sama's death, Sandaime-sama terminated these experiments but they were still secretly carried out by Shimura Danzo.

nAnd it was Shimura Danzo who tempted Orochimaru to start his own research about the Wood Release, Yamato is the result of these experiments.

nNot only did he survive the fusion experiment, but even manage to awaken the Wood Release.

nShimura Danzo also uses Shodaime Sama's Cells which is another result of those experiments.

nIt must not be forgotten that Hashirama cells are countless times more terrifying than cancer cells, they can completely swallow another person's cells, so the difficulty of Hashirama Cells fusion is much-much-much higher than the Uchiha cells.

nAnd the fact that Yamato managed to successfully fuse with the Hashirama Cells, does not only showcase his specialties but also shows Orochimaru's expertise in the field of gene fusion.

nSo, his guidance would only benefit Kuroto.

nBut as you know, Orochimaru is a snake and one should always be careful when dealing with a snake!

n

"But if I contact Orochimaru he would obviously ask Haku to be sent back, what should I do then?

"

nFor the past few months, Haku has been constantly living in the underground residence.

nThere is a reason why Kuroto has not sent him back to Orochimaru yet, it is because Haku is not only aware of the fact that Kuroto has been trying to learn Ice Release, but is also aware that Kuroto can use some strange technique to attach his soul to others, which happened when he used Tenseigan Soul Descend to leech his soul to Haku's body to experience Ice Release in personal.

nAs such, once Haku returns to Orochimaru, it is difficult to guarantee that Haku will not explain what he experienced here upon being asked by Orochimaru.

nWith Orochimaru's cunningness, as long as Orochimaru learns that Kuroto has been trying to learn Ice Release, and is capable of transferring his soul, then it won't take him much time to put two and two together, and he will immediately realize that there is some deep connection between him and Suijin of Amatsukami.

nAnd when that happens Orochimaru might even be able to guess the true identity of Suijin, which will give him a perfect understanding of the secret behind Amatsukami!

nThis is something Kuroto does not want, so he has to think of some other ways out of this situation.

nOccupied by so many thoughts, Kuroto soon returned to the main lab, and after transferring back his soul to his main body, he put the female clone inside the Large Nutrition tank again, then compiled all the data of the gene fusion experiment he carried out in the past few weeks.

nAfter doing so he returned to his home.

n…

nNext day.

nToday it was Kuroto and Shisui's turn to keep a watch over and ensure the safety of the protagonist of the canon, as per the mission assigned to Anbu Team-11, by Sandaime-sama.

nUzumaki Naruto who is already four years old, does not like staying in the lonely home he is given, no one other than him lives in that lonesome place, as such he spends most of his time walking through the village.

nBut because of the rumors of the demon fox being sealed inside him, and the hatred people of Konoha harbored for Kyuubi made those people direct their hatred towards the young Naruto, as such he has always been rejected, hated, and ignored by most of the villagers.

nThis has made Naruto's childhood lack the love and attention that a child needs and made him always be lonely without getting any answer as to why he is treated as such.

n

"Sigh…!

" – Standing on the tree, Shisui sighed while looking at the little Naruto walking through the streets in the cold night, Naruto's head was low, and sadness in his eyes.

nKuroto also looked at Naruto with complicated emotions.

nKuroto knows that he will never be able to understand Naruto's pain, after all, Kuroto is at least aware of who were his parents, what kind of people were they like and so many more things, even after their death, Yui has always been there for him, so he has never truly felt lonely.

nBut Naruto's case is completely different.

nAs the son of Yondaime Hokage and the princess of the Uzumaki Clan, Naruto should actually be the prince of Konoha if anything, moreover, both his parents sacrificed their lives to protect Konoha, and the fact that Kyuubi has been sealed inside him makes him the Hero of the village, yet he suffers such treatment at the hands of the villagers.

nIt's really inhuman to make such a young child go through such a life and suffer through such coldness and hatred from others.

nIn fact, it wouldn't be wrong to say that it is Konoha's luck that Naruto did not go dark and kept up his positive attitude to seek everyone's acknowledgment, rather than slaughtering them coldly.

nWhoosh… Whoosh…

nWhile Kuroto was busy in thoughts, two figures appeared beside Kuroto.

nThey are none other than Kakashi and Guy who are also dressed in their Anbu uniforms.

nKuroto glanced at the two of them and asked curiously,

"What are you two doing here, it's still not the time to change the shift, did something happen!?

"

nKakashi and Guy removed their mask for a while and said,

"Right, something serious happened.

"

nKuroto and Shisui also removed their respective masks, and Shisui asked in confusion,

"Something really happened?

" – he was stunned, then asked,

"So, um… what happened exactly?

"

nKakashi spoke with a sullen face,

"Amatsukami recently made their move, this time they attacked Raikage-dono and his entourage who were on their way to the location discussed by the five Kage for the upcoming Gokage Summit, in this attack, both the guards that were accompanying him suffered!

"

n

"

"What!?

"

" – both Kuroto and Shisui were taken aback by this sudden news and exclaimed at the same time.

nImmediately, both looked at each other and asked the other party with a shocked and doubtful face,

"

"Amatsukami… Amatsukami has been making their moves recently?

"

"

nBut seeing that both of them asked the same question and both of them had the same, shocked, confused and doubtful expression, they shook their heads instinctively,

"

"I don't know!

"

"

nKakashi didn't think too much about Kuroto and Shisui's behavior, and their shocked and doubtful expression, according to him, both Kuroto and Shisui were probably asking the other party if he knew this information, so not minding their exclaim, Kakashi continued,

"Hokage-sama is worried that Amatsukami will conspire some plans against the Kyuubi which is sealed inside Uzumaki Naruto, so assigned more Anbu to ensure Uzumaki Naruto's safety, so from now, entire Team-11 will keep watch over him together and our shifts will be changed with other Anbu teams during the 6-hour break we will get.

"

nBoth Shisui and Kuroto nodded, and after a while of silence, Kuroto asked,

"Is Raikage-dono alright?

"

n

"Raikage is safe and sound, the target of this attack was not Raikage-dono but his two guards.

" – Kakashi said.

nKuroto frowned and muttered,

"But why would Amatsukami attack Raikage's guards? Was there anything special about them?

"

nKakashi thought a little and said,

"I am not sure, one of the guards following him was the Jonin who came to Konoha with the Kumo peace delegation, while the other one was a user of Storm Release Kekkei Genkai, and he was called Rai.

"

nShisui's gaze flickered,

"I know him!

" – Shisui's words attracted the attention of the rest of the team, seeing their questioning eyes which asked for further explanation, Shisui said,

"It was during the third great Shinobi War, during one of the missions, our team encountered another three-man team of Kumogakure, at that time, I fought against Rai, who was the strongest of his team, our fight did not last long, but during that brief confrontation I was unable to take the advantage, and at that time, I already had three tomoe Sharingan, so it wouldn't be wrong to say that Rai was very strong even at that time! By now, he should have already been an elite Jonin!

"

nKakashi nodded,

"He is indeed an elite Jonin based on the information we have, and it is still unclear as to why would Amatsukami attack these two Jonin, Rai's status is unclear, it's possible that he is already dead, but we can't know for certain as there is no corpse to identify, but we do know that the other Jonin is dead, as his corpse was found, so we are assuming that Amatsukami's target was Rai in specific, and there is a possibility that he is still alive!

"

nGuy muttered with a dejected face,

"In the face of Amatsukami, I am afraid… that Rai…

"

nBut before Guy could complete his sentence, Kuroto asked,

"Is there any information about which member of Amatsukami attacked this Rai fellow?

"

nAsked by Kuroto, Kakashi took out a few documents from his shinobi bag and passed them over to Kuroto and Shisui.

"According to Raikage-dono's description, the member of Amatsukami that appeared this time had a strange face and body.

"

nUpon listening to Kakashi's words Kuroto focused his attention on the document that listed the following information:

"Is it the last member who did it?
