Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

A few days later

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire safely arrived in Konoha, and it was finally the day, the Elections started.

For the first round, it was decided that there would be a battle between the candidates in order to test their strengths.

Unsurprisingly, Kuroto and Shisui will be fighting, and Kakashi and Fugaku will be duking it out. The winners of the first round will compete in the second round of the election.

All over Konoha, the villagers were discussing who would be the winners of the first round.

It’s debatable who the candidate with the most support is, but the candidate with the least support is undeniably Hyuga Kuroto.

Whatever support Kuroto had earlier was lost.

If it was Hatake Kakashi or Uchiha Fugaku… there was a possibility that Kuroto might win, as the strength of the three of them is somewhat relative, but against Uchiha Shisui? Not a chance!

Almost no one thinks that Hyuga Kuroto will be able to win against Uchiha Shisui!

A Dark & Secret Room, somewhere in Konohagakure

Knock! Knock!

A figure appeared outside the secret room and knocked on the door.

“Come in!”

As the approval to enter came, the figure opened the door and walked in, “Tsunade-sama, I have returned.”

Standing in the cover of shadow, Tsunade looked at the figure, and asked in a solemn tone of voice, “Did anyone notice you Shizune?”

Looking at the two people who seemed to be carrying an extremely serious aura, Izumi couldn’t help but think, ‘At such a critical time Tsunade-sama gave a mission to Shizune-san? What kind of mission was it? Considering the serious atmosphere, it has to be something that can affect the entire village!’

While Izumi was busy with her thoughts, Shizune replied, “There is a situation.” her tone was a bit panicked, she bit her lips and looked at the ground as she apologized, “Forgive me Tsunade-sama… I could not complete the mission without alerting anyone… at the last minute… I encountered Yui… and… and she recognized me!”

‘Huh? Shizune-san encountered Yui-san?’ Izumi was taken aback, and thought, ‘Is the mission related to the Hyuga Clan?’

BOOM!

Izumi’s thoughts were broken as a loud slam echoed in the room.

Apparently, Tsunade had slammed her fist into the wall in anger, “Damn him! How could Hyuga Kuroto do such a thing, he is one of the four candidates. Does he have no shame? Does he have no pride? Does he have honor?”

Looking at the furious Tsunade, Shizune was helpless, and slandered her Shishou under her breath, “Aren’t you the same? Unlike him… you are already a member of the Elder Council… yet you are doing such a thing!”

“Shizune!” roared Tsunade in anger.

Shizune hurriedly shut her mouth, “Eeeep!”

Izumi looked at the two people in confusion and suspicion. She was unable to understand what was going on.

She vaguely felt that this matter was related to the Elections, but couldn’t really understand the matter completely.

Before she could try to understand the situation, Tsunade looked at her and ordered, “Izumi… leave us for a while… I must discuss this matter with Shizune alone… This is very important!”

“I understand Tsunade-sama!” Izumi nodded, and quickly left the room.

Now that it was just Tsunade and Shizune, the Shishou calmed her breath, and asked, “Explain to me… did you buy both games?”

Shizune nodded earnestly, “Yes… as per your order… I bought both games.”

“Very good… it does not matter if you were spotted by Yui.” Nodded Tsunade in relief.

Shizune asked in worry, “But Tsunade-sama… Was it wise to bet such a big amount? It was borrowed money… … if we lose… we will not be able to hide in the Shadow of Konoha… We will have to run away!”

Tsunade folded her hands under her breast and spoke confidently, “This time will be different. My win is all but assured. We just have to wait for a while, and all that money will be ours! We’ll be rich!”

Looking at Tsunade’s haughty expression, Shizune had a bad feeling, ‘I just hope that nothing goes wrong.’

…

Kuroto’s Home, Hyuga District

“I am home!”

Seeing Yui return, Kuroto lifted his head from the scroll, and asked, “Did you buy the game?”

Yui nodded, “Yes.” Then muttered with a strange expression, “Kuroto-kun… guess whom I met at the betting place?”

“Who?” asked Kuroto with an absent-minded expression.

Yui answered, “Shizune.”

Puff!

Kuroto was taken aback, “What?! Shizune you say?!”

Yui nodded, “Yes, and for some reason she was disguised which was strange.” And added, “What’s weird is that she placed her bet on you. When I asked her if she was sure that she wanted to bet such a big amount on you given that your opponent is Uchiha Shisui… she ran away without giving a reply.”

Kuroto shrugged, “Only Kami-sama knows what she is thinking.”

Internally he couldn’t help but slander Tsunade, ‘Tch, now she has become one of the elders, doesn’t she have any bottom line? She is trying to profit! What’s more troublesome is that she has placed her bet on me… she is sure to win this time… and if she wins… it’s going to be bad luck for me!’

“What do I do?”
