Naruto's Review : First Viewer is Senju Tobirama?

Chapter 148: Chapter 148 : Kabuto is in danger!!



"Pervy Sage, why did Sasuke's brother burn Shisui's eyes?" 

Even Naruto, with all his carelessness, knew that the Mangekyō Sharingan was a very powerful Kekkei Genkai. 

To have it burned like that felt a bit regrettable. 

If it had been handed over to Sasuke, all he needed to do was evolve one of his eyes into a Mangekyō, which would make the difficulty half as much. 

Hmm, Naruto's idea was quite unique. 

The difficulty of evolving one Sharingan into a Mangekyō was indeed lower than evolving both eyes into Mangekyō Sharingan. 

This thought was very much like Naruto. 

"I think there are a few reasons for it," 

Fifth Hokage Jiraiya was thinking, trying to figure out how to answer Naruto so he'd understand. 

On the other hand, the Third Hokage, who didn't overthink things, directly spoke up: "Shisui told me before that every time Kotoamatsukami is used, there's a cooldown period of several years or even decades. During this time, his Mangekyō Sharingan couldn't be used again until the cooldown is over. 

The Mangekyō in the screen was already used by Itachi to break free from the control of the Reanimation Jutsu. 

That mission was completed, and it would take too long for it to be used again, so it couldn't be of any use to Sasuke." 

"That's right." At this point, Jiraiya, the Fifth Hokage, added, "With such a long time passing, anything could happen in the ninja world. Itachi no longer needed Shisui's eyes to make Sasuke on the screen protect Konoha. He trusted Naruto in front of him. He saw Shisui's qualities in you, Naruto. He believed that even without using the forced Kotoamatsukami, if Sasuke stood against Konoha, you could stop him." 

"Hehe, is that so?" 

Naruto tilted his head, grinning like a fool. 

He was very happy that Itachi had faith in him. 

On the other hand, Sasuke was not happy at all. 

He was very displeased that Itachi had placed his hopes on Naruto. 

It wasn't that he disliked Naruto, but rather that he felt Itachi didn't trust him and believed Naruto could stop him. 

After carefully recalling, the light screen revealed some battle power information about the two.

On his side, he should have already awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, along with the things he learned from Orochimaru. His battle power should be very strong.

As for Naruto, from the information shown on the light screen, he could perform the Rasengan, the Big Ball Rasengan, and the Rasenshuriken. It was all about making those spinning balls.

Sasuke shook his head, clearing away the distractions, and continued to recall.

In addition to making Rasengans, Naruto also had the full support of the Nine-Tails.

That golden chakra-tailed beast cloak looked different from the regular version of the beast cloak.

Moreover, Naruto had an enormous amount of chakra and could freely use various Shadow Clone Jutsu, as well as the summoning technique of the Toads from Mount Myoboku, which he had learned during the Chūnin Exams.

Thinking about this, Sasuke was surprised to realize that Naruto really might have the ability to stop him.

"Can this dead last really grow to that level?"

After the Chūnin Exams, Sasuke had already acknowledged Naruto's strength, believing that he could become a great ninja.

But now, from the light screen, Naruto's performance wasn't just great; comparing it to now, it was like the difference between the sky and the earth.

If the light screen had never been wrong before, Sasuke wouldn't have believed that Naruto could have grown to such a level.

The others didn't know about Sasuke's complicated emotions at this moment. After the Fifth Hokage Jiraiya finished speaking, the Third Hokage continued.

"Besides that, there is another reason to destroy Shisui's Mangekyō. Shisui's Mangekyō is, in simple terms, just a tool. But the power of this tool is so great that it can easily attract the greed of others in the ninja world, just like when Danzo took Shisui's Sharingan back in the day.

Now that Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan is no longer useful, and Itachi has found a successor to Shisui's will, there's no reason to keep this Mangekyō Sharingan. This way, we can prevent any future conflicts caused by this Mangekyō Sharingan."

"Do you understand?" The Third Hokage asked.

Naruto's expression was slightly awkward. "I... should... understand."

The Third Hokage nodded, not minding whether Naruto fully understood or not, and turned back to look at the light screen.

[After leaving Naruto, Uchiha Itachi encountered his younger brother, Sasuke, while searching for Kabuto.]

[Sasuke, a top student from the Sound Ninja Academy, had always been a firm materialist. However, this time, he couldn't help but show a look of disbelief, as if seeing a ghost in the daylight.]

Sasuke: "God, Bless me!" 

[At this point, Sasuke had already learned most of the truth about Itachi from Obito, but he still wanted to ask Itachi directly to get the full story.]

[Itachi, who was busy rushing, said, 'Little brother, don't say what doesn't need to be said. You know enough. Right now, I'm going to fight. If you're a brother, come fight with me.']

[So later, Itachi and Sasuke teamed up in the cave to fight Kabuto.]

"Teaming up to fight? Has Kabuto become that strong?"

Orochimaru knew that Kabuto was a genius, a genius who shared common ground with him.

But he never expected that after inheriting his legacy, Kabuto could make both Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke join forces to fight against him.

These two are no ordinary people.

Itachi, the former, had a Kekkei Genkai that countered Orochimaru.

No matter if it was during his time in the Akatsuki or when he resurrected years later from Sasuke's cursed seal, he had always been tightly restrained by Itachi.

The latter, Sasuke, was someone who had killed his own self.

For Kabuto to make these two join forces showed that his strength had grown to an extremely powerful level.

However, the Sasuke and Itachi in the scene—did they just have bad luck with Orochimaru?

Orochimaru's original body was killed by the two brothers, and now they weren't even sparing his successor.

They really are experts at cutting down snakes.

Orochimaru: This is so hard for me.

"Wait a minute, doesn't Kabuto look a bit different?"

At this moment, the scene on the screen showed Kabuto in Sage Mode, which made his appearance change dramatically.

Orochimaru wasn't familiar with Sage Mode, so he didn't know why Kabuto looked like this, but that didn't stop him from guessing.

He knew that Jiraiya's face would also change significantly when entering Sage Mode.

One reason was his lack of skill, and another reason was the characteristic feature of Sage Mode.

Thinking about this, Orochimaru had already guessed that the reason for Kabuto's drastic change was likely that he had learned the Sage Mode of the Ryūchi Cave.

"Tch, I couldn't even learn Sage Mode, yet this guy Kabuto has already mastered it."

"Maybe... once we get through this busy period, I'll send Kabuto to the Ryūchi Cave to learn Sage Mode."

"I sincerely hope he doesn't die there. After all, a good assistant like him is hard to find."

While fiddling with equipment in the laboratory, Kabuto suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of hostility.

Kabuto is in danger!
