Mitokade didn't wait for Sarutobi to speak and said while adjusting his glasses, "There is no question about Hatake Kakashi's loyalty, he is the disciple of Minato!

As the son of Konoha's White Fang, the disciple of Yellow Flash, and one of the hero's of the Third Great Shinobi War, Hatake Kakashi has too much honor upon him. If even Kakashi can't be trusted, then no one within the village can be trusted either!" ​​

Sandaime also nodded, "I will conduct personal inquiries with the Team-11, there is no need to monitor all of them. They are all trustworthy Konoha Shinobi."

"Trustworthy?" Danzo said with a cold smirk, "Hyuga Kuroto is the disciple of Orochimaru, who's to say that he isn't a spy Orochimaru left in Konoha? Allowing this kind of person to stay in the Anbu, Hiruzen, you are being too careless!"

Hiruzen really disliked that Danzo touched on the matter of Orochimaru, and said in a deep voice, "Danzo, there is no need to mention it!"

However, how can Danzo become silent so easily?

He insisted, "Even if you don't talk about his student-teacher relationship with Orochimaru, he was also part of the cleansing operation, but somehow got lucky enough to survive, such a person should never be allowed to stay in the Anbu. But if you are insisting on letting him stay in Anbu, then at least let me appoint some Root ninja to monitor his action!"

Sandaime-Sama was silent now.

The matter of Hyuga Kuroto being part of the cleansing operation has been a thorn in Sandaime-Sama's heart, which makes him unable to completely trust the kid. Because no matter how loyal a shinobi might have been to his village, once abandoned by the village, his loyalty would undoubtedly be compromised.

Danzo saw the silent expression of Hiruzen and stopped saying anything as he left Hokage Building.

Shimura Danzo has known Sarutobi Hiruzen for decades now, and that silent expression indicates Hiruzen's acquiescence, to his proposal!

…

On Kuroto's side.

After separating from Shisui, Kuroto came to the Forest of Death.

Not long after entering the Forest of Death, the little wild Boar on whom Kuroto conducted live poison test, suddenly sprang out of the dense bushes and circled around him as it sniffed his trousers.

Kuroto was surprised seeing the little guy, not because the other party found him so easily, but because of something else…

"Hey, how come you grew up so big!?" Kuroto looked in pure confusion at the little wild boar that was not so little anymore.

It has only been about 2 months ago, the little wild boar that was so small the last time Kuroto saw, now reached up to his waist.

Kuroto took a closer look to see that this guy had many injuries on the body, there were scars everywhere, and even hairs were quite sparse. Seems like it often got involved in fights with the other wild animals inside the forest.

"So many injuries? Still as ignorant as ever, looks like only the body grew in size, the brain is the same as before, really like an idiot pig!"

With a sigh, Kuroto activated his Byakugan.

After carefully taking a look around him, and repeatedly confirming that no one was around or spying on him, or there were no signs of abnormal chakra reaction, Kuroto shut his eyes.

When he opened them again, his eyes glowed in a Royal blue color with a white floral pattern shining within them.

Printing the hand seals, Kuroto muttered in a low voice, "Tenseigan Chakra Mode!"

Whooooosh...

Kuroto's entire body was instantly covered in a Cyan-Blue chakra cloak and lifted him up in the air.

The grass plates beneath his feet were blown away by the high wind pressure.

The entire forest around him swayed by the Chakra pressure, but none of the creatures felt any danger from this sudden change, because the chakra pressure was quite gentle and serene.

The little wild boar on the side didn't panic much by the sudden change and slowly approached Kuroto who was hovering at 2 feet above the ground.

After approaching close, the little boar sniffed around, and upon finding that there was no change in the scent it again circled around him without a care in the world and seem to be asking Kuroto to feed him something.

Kuroto smiled slightly at the boar's antics and ignoring the little devil, Kuroto focused on the 'Chakra Mode.'

Although he used the 'Tenseigan Chakra Mode' once before at the Land of Lightning and even used 'Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion' by merging his chakra with the Truth-Seeking Ball, after all, it was on the battlefield, and the time of usage was also very short, so, Kuroto didn't manage to get familiar with the 'Chakra Mode'.

This time he is in a ghostly area of the Forest of Death, so getting familiar with the Chakra Made without being disturbed or spotted by others is the best opportunity to test his current limits and chakra consumption.

Slowly coming back to the ground, Kuroto touched the ground with one hand and injected the Tenseigan Chakra into it.

As a result of this, with him as the center, all the Chakra reactions in a radius of a dozen miles were now under his perception.

'Hmm… Chakra perception has increased dozens of times!'

Kuroto was overjoyed by this and poured more Chakra into his Tenseigan and looked around attentively.

At this moment, even the patterns on the wings of a moth hundreds of meters away appeared as if it was right in front of him.

With all these conclusions, Kuroto glanced at the little boar dangling by his side and noticed that the chakra inside its body has grown quite a lot during this time, but the chakra meridians inside its body were not completely connected.

Frowning a little he raised his hand.

Instantly, the little boar flew towards Kuroto, no matter how hard it struggled, it couldn't get rid of the restraint of the traction force of Rein Wheel Pull.

Bringing the Boar closer, Kuroto ignored all its struggle, pressed his hand gently on its abdomen, and injected Tenseigan Chakra inside it little by little.

With the sudden rush of the Tenseigan Chakra, the Chakra Volume inside the Boar's body instantly grew several times, and the meridians that weren't connected completely were penetrated as it formed a perfect network around its body due to continuous flow on chakra under Kuroto's guidance.

"Here, it's your reward for helping me with testing the Poison!"

Kuroto now smiled faintly in a good mood.

The little boar whose chakra pathway was now connected groaned, swayed, and walked wobbly as if it was in a drunken state.

Now leaving the boar to its own antics, Kuroto again focused on himself.

With a little understanding, he was able to find that unlike the last time when he had Nine Truth-Seeking Balls circling around him, this time, without the Chakra support of the giant Tenseigan, even if he used all his Chakra, at most, he was able to bring out only One Truth-Seeking Ball.

And he can also faintly guess that once he does activate this One Orb, all his Chakra will be empty.

Playing with the Truth-Seeking Ball in his hand like a squishy ball, he thought: 'If it is the question of maintaining the 'Tenseigan Chakra Mode, I should be able to last about 10 minutes but if use Truth-Seeking Ball for techniques like 'Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!' or 'Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!', I will be hollowed out instantly.'

Kuroto has long since faced the issue of low Chakra Volume. But he isn't that worried about this issue now.

From the time at Ninja Academy to The Third Great Shinobi War, he has always been the transparent kid, always staying in the background.

But what about that?

He still reached up to this point, didn't he?

How many people are capable of using Truth-Seeking Balls in the entire Shinobi World?

Countless geniuses and Strong Ninjas have already been left behind by him!

Taking a deep look at the far sky, Kuroto muttered to himself, 'Isn't it just the lack of talent? The issue of Chakra Volume? The problems to which the solutions can be found are not at all problems in my eyes…"
