Chapter 830 Kakashi in Disbelief

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Hyuga District, Patriarch’s Mansion

As the Patriarch of the Hyuga Clan, Hiashi has of course learned the details of the conflict between Hyuga Ryuma and the Konoha Military Police Force a few hours ago.

Even Hiashi didn’t expect Kuroto would go as far as to directly detain Uchiha Shin. This information was simply beyond him. And now he is really worried about the overall situation.

As Hiashi was anxiously pacing from one corner of his study to another, suddenly a member of the branch family arrived at the door, and reported, “Hiashi-sama, Uchiha Shinichi has entered the Ninja Academy.”

“I understand.” Nodded Hiashi as he instructed the shinobi to retreat.

As the person in question left, the door of the study was once again closed. At this time, Elder Aoyama said coldly, “To provoke the Uchiha Clan at such a time… humph… it’s his own fault, he brought this upon himself.”

Hiashi sighed, ‘Why did he have to do that?’ then asked anxiously, “Are we just going to sit back and do nothing?”

Elder Aoyama asked angrily, “Then what do you suggest? Should we confront the Uchiha Clan head-on? Do not forget… with the return of Uchiha Shinichi they have two Mangekyou Sharingan awakeners in their clan…!”

Hiashi lower his head and nodded, “I know.” Then added with a sigh, “But this incident started with Ryuma arguing with Uchiha Shin of the Konoha Military Police Force… if we just sit back and watch things happen… it will have a great impact on our reputation. We are already under watch for a while… now if we don’t do anything… what will the clans think of us?”

Elder Aoyama shook his head, “We shouldn’t care about these things at the moment… Right now, what’s most important is to find information about the Tenseigan as soon as possible. As long as we find what the Otsutsuki was searching for… we will have the necessary strength to face any enemy… at that time what Uchiha… what Hokage and what Otsutsuki… the Hyuga will rise at the top!”

Hiashi was hesitant.

Intellectually, he agrees with the three elders. After weeks of searching through the archives of the Hyuga Clan, they have finally discovered some information about Tenseigan. So, he also understands the terrifying power this Dojutsu may possess and acknowledges the fact that finding this Dojutsu will really help the Hyuga Clan to rise to the top.

But emotionally, Hiashi feels that this is not the right thing to do. A while ago, in order to conceal the information about the Tenseigan and Otsutsuki Clan they allowed Hizashi to be detained by the village which not only offended the Hokage faction but even the members of the branch family. Now, if they abandon Kuroto against the Uchiha Clan, they will completely lose the trust of the branch family.

Hiashi wanted to say that they should not abandon Kuroto… but upon seeing the determined faces of the three elders, he could only sigh and chose to remain silent as he thought, ‘I hope that we can quickly find this Tenseigan… otherwise, we will be in big trouble!’

…

Principal’s Office, Konoha Ninja Academy

After explaining why the Patriarch could not come, Shinichi asked, “Um… where is Shin? I should probably take him back with me…”

“Hahaha, yeah right.” Chuckled Kuroto as he ignored Shinichi and continued to deal with the paperwork.

Shinichi didn’t mind being ignored by Kuroto, instead of bothering him again, he glanced at Kakashi on the side and sighed in relief, ‘Hey… I am really lucky today. If he wasn’t here, I am sure Boss would have scolded me.’ Then he thought of something and raised his hand at Kakashi in greeting, “Sup Hatake Kakashi?”

Kakashi blinked his eyes in surprise, “Huh?”

When Kakashi saw that instead of Shinichi intentionally provoking Kuroto, it was the other way around he couldn’t help but panic. However, contrary to what he expected, not only Shinichi was not offended, instead, he seemed to be happy about this entire thing and even smiled at him in greeting.

Heck even when Kuroto ignored his existence and left him standing, he wasn’t offended. Instead of showing any signs of impatience or anger. It’s as if Shinichi was willing to wait no matter how long it took.

Kakashi really couldn’t understand what was going through Shinichi’s mind.

Initially, Kakashi had expected that as soon as Shinichi entered the Principal’s Office, he would start mocking Kuroto and humiliating him in an attempt to anger Kuroto so that he could take his revenge.

But what’s happening at the moment is completely opposite of what he had expected.

For a moment, Kakashi even wondered, ‘Is he really Uchiha Shinichi?’ and carefully observed the guy to make sure that he wasn’t someone else disguised as Shinichi.

Kakashi’s doubts are not unreasonable, considering the violent and impatient temper he showed back when they fought each other.

Shinichi didn’t know Kakashi’s train of thought.

When he noticed that Kakashi was staring at him, he smiled gratefully at the silver flash. It was thanks to Kakashi he wouldn’t have to endure Kuroto’s anger.

‘He has to be someone else…! That must be it, he can’t be Uchiha Shinichi!’ Kakashi thought as his eyes shot open.

Shinichi’s actions were driving him crazy. And his doubts in regards to Shinichi’s identity were becoming heavier.

Such doubts remained in Kakashi’s mind for the next few minutes as Kuroto continued to process the documents.

…

While three people remained silent in the Principal’s office, the breaths of every other person involved–directly or indirectly–in this cold confrontation weren’t calm.

The Anbu, stationed just outside the Principal’s office looked at each other in dismay and confusion, “What in the world is going on inside?”

Similar thoughts were revolving in the minds of onlookers outside the Academy.

At this moment, the principal’s office seemed to have become the hotspot. Everyone’s attention was focused on this room.

But no one other than Kuroto, Kakashi, and Shinichi knew what was happening inside.

After a while, Kuroto finally finished what he was doing. Firstly, he put aside the file, then raised his head and looked at Shinichi as he said, “So you are here for Uchiha Shin, huh? He is detained in the teacher’s lounge… come with me.” Then got up from his seat and walked out of the principal’s office with Shinichi closely following him.

Looking at Kuroto and Shinichi’s back, Kakashi was left stunned, and quickly chased after the two, ‘Just because nothing happened here doesn’t mean nothing will happen!’

…

Teacher’s Lounge

“He… he has arrived, right? Soon you people will realize our horror. Hahaha… I can’t wait to watch your miserable faces!”

Shin’s arrogant voice could be heard from outside the teacher’s lounge.

Hearing the arrogant Uchiha’s words, Kuroto glanced at Shinichi for a minute before walking into the room. As they entered the teacher’s lounge, the three people spotted several teachers gathering in front of Shin, and they looked extremely angry.

But Shin didn’t seem to care. He continued to speak unscrupulously. It’s as if he wasn’t the one detained. Obviously, his arrogance inflated upon learning that Shinichi had come to take him back to the Uchiha Clan.

Just when the teachers were having a hard time restraining themselves, Shin spotted Kuroto and Shinichi, and immediately spoke, “Look… he is finally here… Hyuga Kuroto… you son o–…!”

Before Shin could finish his words, he felt a sharp pain at the back of his neck and lost consciousness.

The one who knocked him unconscious was none other than Shinichi.

After making sure that Shin could no longer speak anything for a while, Shinichi breathed a sigh of relief, ‘Thankfully I made it in time!’ He was really worried that Shin would say something idiotic to Kuroto and offend him.
