Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

The effect of the public display this time was pretty good, but unfortunately, there were few spectators, only three people, and with their character settings, they couldn't even shout ‘sugoiii’ to him. Fortunately, Kanpū had his own mouth and face and could actively find something satisfying from Kakashi.

“Kakashi, I'm sorry for scaring you.” Kanpū looked embarrassed, like an excellent student who apologized for making a mistake.

“You…” Kakashi's right eye twitched, at this moment he was both shocked by the power of Tenseigan and felt resentful for Kanpū's show-off.

Kanpū was already strong enough, and now he had obtained Tenseigan. Was he going to leave no room for him, the senior, to live happily?

Then, he touched his left eye. This three-tomoe Sharingan had earned him the title of Copy Ninja in the Shinobi World, but compared to Tenseigan, this Sharingan is really not worth mentioning.

A sense of loss surged in Kakashi's heart.

“Kanpū, this shouldn’t be the greatest destructive power of Tenseigan, right?” Minato remembered the towering yellow Chakra lightsaber just now, and felt lingering fear.

Kanpū nodded: “Yeah, as long as I keep pouring pupil-power and Chakra into it, the power of the Gold Wheel Reincarnation Explosion can continue to increase infinitely. It shouldn't be a problem to cut the moon in half with one slash!”

‘Can’t you stop exaggerating…’ Kakashi wanted to retort again, but considering the size of the towering yellow Chakra lightsaber from before, he fell silent.

‘So this move is called Gold Wheel Reincarnation Explosion…’ Eagle silently nodded and then wrote down this move into the secret archive.

At this time, Minato showed a worried look.

Tenseigan’s power is indeed powerful, giving the impression that it was even superior to the Mangekyo Sharingan, which was both good and bad for Konoha.

‘Once someone who used this power lost control…’

Minato sighed: “Kanpū, there's something I haven't had a chance to tell you about, it's about Hayate.”

“Hayate?” Kanpū's heart skipped a beat.

This year was the 60th year of Konoha, the year when the plot officially began, and also the year when Hayate died.

‘Did my little brother not escape the plot killing in the end?’

‘No!’

‘The plot killing is before the final of Chunin Exams, and there was still a month before the Chunin Exams began, so it couldn't be a plot killing.’

When Kanpū let the imagination run wild, he heard Minato say: “Hayate is missing.”

‘Missing?’

Kanpū breathed a sigh of relief, ‘It's good that he's not dead.’

At an opportune moment, Eagle handed Kanpū a wanted poster and recounted the reasons and consequences of Hayate’s capture, ending with, “He is the one who captured Hayate, and we're still investigating his identity.”

After Kanpū stole the Forbidden Technique scroll from him, Shinno had been afraid of being suspected of his identity, so after escaping from Konoha, he began to keep a low profile. Several years later, Orochimaru put a bounty of him in the black market. Since then, he dared not openly walk the Shinobi World as Shinno, and now, more than ten years later, there were very few people who could recognize him as Shinno.

Looking at the old face on the wanted poster, Kanpū felt it somewhat familiar.

‘I’m familiar with him because I have seen him before, so Hayate’s disappearance is related to me?’

Kanpū felt somewhat guilty, then tried even harder to recall. However, all he can remember in his mind is the faces of Yondaime Raikage, Sandaime Tsuchikage, Chiyo, and Gaara. As for the other extras, he never remembered them.

How could he think of Shinno, who he hadn’t seen in more than ten or twenty years?

Seeing that Kanpū remained relatively calm and did not show the expression of anger, resentment, and desire to destroy everything, Minato couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and continued: “When Hayate disappeared, Orochimaru infiltrated the prison and meet Danzo. We suspected that this person is related to Orochimaru.”

‘Orochimaru?’

‘This point in time… is it related to the Konoha Crush Plan?’

Kanpū recalled the plot, but knew that there was no such old man in the original Konoha Crush Plan.

Kanpū's head began to ache and he asked: “Do we have any clues?”

Eagle and Kakashi shook their heads simultaneously.

“Kanpū, don't worry, the person who went through all the trouble to capture Hayate must have another purpose. Until that purpose is achieved, he's safe.” Minato comforted.

‘I feel the same way…’ Kanpū nodded in agreement, and he had a hunch that this old man was coming for him!

Suddenly, Kanpū had an idea: “Everyone, I have a bold idea!”

……

After the group of four returned to the village, rumors spread like wildfire through Konoha's gossip circle.

“Have you heard? The Clan Head of Gekko Clan is blind and is currently being treated in the hospital!”

“I it's said that he went on a very dangerous secret mission outside, and… ah, what a pity.”

“Your information is outdated. The latest news is that Gekko Clan is buying eyes at a high price. They are going to restore their Clan Head’s vision through transplant!”

“Where can they buy eyes?”

“Yeah, if you sell your eyes, won’t you blind yourself?”

“Idiot, just go catch a bandit from outside and dig out his eyes!”

“Then why does Gekko Clan need to buy eyes at a high price? They could just send their Shinobi to catch bandits, right?”

“So obviously, his information is wrong! Let me tell you, actually, the mother of the Gekko Clan’s Clan Head is a high-ranking member of the Konoha Hospital. With so many people die in the hospital every day, how many eyes do they need?”

“Nonsense, the Nara Clan is behind the Konoha Hospital. How could they tolerate the Gekko Clan doing such a thing? Your information is wrong, mine is true, That Gekko Clan’s Clan Head is good friends with Shisui of the Body Flicker. I heard that he has sent someone to the border to ask Shisui to kill a Kumogakure’s Shinobi to Take his eyes!”

“If Shisui of the Body Flicker takes action, won’t they have as many eyes as they want?”

“But would this provoke a war?”

“Idiot, if the Kumogakure dared to invade us, they would have done so long ago. Why wait until now?”

The gossiping women chattered away.

The tall and handsome Shinno pretended to be friendly with the women, chatted with them for a while, and then left with an excited look on his face.

‘No wonder I haven’t heard about Gekko Kanpū in the past few days. It turned out he was on a mission outside the village…’ Shinno sneered, ‘Fortunately, I didn’t give up. Now, it's time to settle our accounts!’

‘As for whether he is really blind… Hmph, is there a difference for me who can use Eight-Gates without dying?’

After thinking about it seriously, Shinno found that it did matter a little bit.

So, he had to kill Kanpū before he could transplant his eyes, to prevent any trouble later!

‘Wait!’

‘Gekko Kanpū is a cunning liar, so is he really blind?’

Shinno’s mind raced, and finally came up with a perfect plan!

After that, Shinno spent the rest of the day arranging everything. After it got dark, he arrived at an outdoor hot spring and looked around. Then, he approached a little girl selling matches and said a few words to her before handing her a stack of money.

The little girl selling matches was overjoyed. She had planned to sell all her matches to buy herself a meal, but now…

She happily took the money and then ran towards the Konoha Hospital.

About twenty minutes later, a figure shot out from the direction of the hospital, quickly passed through the outdoor hot spring, and headed straight towards the Academy.

Shinno, standing in the hot spring, witnessed the scene from start to finish, and couldn't help but sneer: ‘Gekko Kanpū, you're not blind. You little trickster, do you think I can still fall for your tricks?’

With a sneer, Shinno waited for a few more minutes. After he was sure that there was no one following Kanpū, he immediately rushed to the next location, a street vendor selling okonomiyaki.

Shinnō ordered a serving of okonomiyaki while calculating the time. About ten minutes later, Kanpū dashed away from above.

Shinno sneered at this: ‘The plan is very successful!’

He had the little girl selling matches deliver a message to Kanpū, ‘If you want to save your little brother, get to the entrance of the Academy within half an hour.’ Then, when Kanpū arrived at the entrance of the Academy, there would be a little boy Shinno had arranged in advance to inform him to go to the next location.

And Shinno only needed to wait in the middle of these routes to confirm whether Kanpū had asked someone to follow him.

‘So far, it seemed that Gekko Kanpū is still trustworthy!’

Shinno finished his okonomiyaki and rushed to the next location.

After doing this seven times, Shinno arrived early at the final destination, the dense forest where Hayate was trapped!

At this time, it was already late at night, and the dappled moonlight passed through the luxuriant forest and shone on Shinno’s triumphant face.

Not long after, the sound of footsteps slowly approached.
