Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

Chapter 555: Approaching Meteorite!

The night sky as if illuminated by the sudden appearance of a meteorite became bright again, as if the night has become day again which left everyone tranced for a moment and they couldn’t open their eyes for a moment.

Yama looked at the rapidly falling meteorite and felt the restless air due to the sudden compression, with a doubtful expression under the mask.

Because of his Tenseigan Vision, Yama can naturally tell at a glance that this falling meteorite is not the result of ninjutsu created by the use of Chakra and thrown towards the battlefield from a height of hundreds or perhaps thousands of meters above the surface of the earth, but a real piece of space rock/asteroid drifting in the boundless space and has now entered the Earth’s atmosphere due to some reason.

As the meteor approached closer and closer to the earth, the flames surrounding it became brighter and hotter to the point that Yama can’t help but mutter

“Is it really just a coincidence? Or is it the handiwork of a certain someone?” – muttered Yama in doubt.

A meteor suddenly falling on the Earth, although an extremely rare event, is not an impossible event, theoretically considering… But the fact that it happened to occur on this specific night and happened to fall at this specific battlefield! This kind of event may theoretically be possible based on the probability factor, but that is only in theory, in reality, such a coincidence is impossible to occur… Therefore, Yama didn’t have to guess too much to understand that it must be someone’s handiwork.

“If it were to hit the surface of the Earth… then even if it is me, I am afraid will definitely suffer!” Yama didn’t have to think too much to reach this conclusion.

Yama is certainly confident in his strength to be able to smash boulders falling towards earth from a height of a hundred or a thousand meters, but a falling meteorite that has been forcibly accelerated and dragged towards the earth under someone’s control is not something he can easily deal with!

It would have been a completely different story had the meteorite not yet entered the gravitation field of the planet Earth, but under the control of the Giant Tenseigan Chakra, it has already entered, which makes it all the more troublesome.

The acceleration of the meteorite under the gravitational attraction of the planet and the energy radiated upon the impact with the surface is not something Yama sure to be able to withstand, now even if the backhand-behind this incident doesn’t do much, they have already caused a real survival crisis for the aboriginals of the planet earth.

Of course, Yama has already guessed the origin of the meteorite and the identity of the backhand behind the scenes.

As early as when Yama had hidden himself inside the spherical sphere made up of the Truth-Seeking Orbs to protect himself from Nagato’s Limbo Clones, he had already noticed someone trying to secretly pry over the battlefield…

But at that Yama didn’t have much time to think about the identity of the person prying over the battlefield because he was seriously pondering over Nagato’s strange Jutsu, moreover, the prying had suddenly disappeared for some reason, therefore, Yama didn’t care about it too much at that time.

Then later when Yama came out of the protection of the Truth-Seeking Sphere, or more like, he had no other option left but to come out because ‘Madara’ used Kamui to tear the protection, Yama was then engaged in a battle with the members of Akatsuki, where he had to pay full attention to his surroundings in order to guard against Nagato, ‘Madara’, Zetsu and Konan at the same time, so again he didn’t have enough time and attention to consider the identity of the person who was earlier prying over the battlefield.

It was only after the trap prepared by Nagato and Konan was activated, and Yama had used a hidden Truth-Seeking Orb to create a Sphere around him to protect himself from millions of Explosive Tags did he have enough time and attention to consider the issue of the snooper he has sensed earlier.

As for the threat posed by the repeated explosions caused by millions of Explosive Tags.

Yama didn’t really worry over that issue because the defense of Truth-Seeking Orbs is too strong to be breached by something like that…

After all, the Truth-Seeking Orbs can withstand explosions caused by multiple Bijuudama released by Juubi… and still remain undamaged! Will the explosion caused by just a few million explosive tags still be higher than Juubi’s Bijuudama?

Obviously not! Therefore, for Yama, defending against the explosions caused by just a few million explosive tags was nothing more than consumption of some chakra, and considering that he is in a state of resonance with the Giant Tenseigan on the Moon, so the most dispensable thing for him at the moment happened to be Chakra.

Therefore, the carefully prepared trap was meaningless to Yama, in fact, this short break gave him enough time to analyze the identity of the snooper he had sensed earlier.

The snooper may have thought that their secret prying is extremely concealed and impossible for anyone else to detect, but because the snooper was using the Giant Tenseigan to snoop around, and because Yama also has the Tenseigan which is in resonance with the Giant Tenseigan, therefore, Yama was able to figure out the origin of the snooper upon a little exploration.

Of course, because Yama was able to do so, he also understood that the snooper might also be able to do so, therefore, Yama took advantage of his own Tenseigan which gave him a somewhat higher authority over the Giant Tenseigan compared to the snooper, and made sure to isolate the resonant connection between him and the Giant Tenseigan…

In this way, although the state of resonance between him and the Giant Tenseigan still remains which would make the Giant Tenseigan act strangely, finding Yama, who is the person responsible for the anomaly will become impossible for the snooper, unless of course, Yama willingly wants to be perceived.

This is similar to how the administrator of higher authority works, those of higher authority can prevent themselves to be found out by those of lower authority, and can still continue to do what they are doing, without letting others find out…

Of course, Yama can do so doesn’t mean he will have permanent access to the Giant Tenseigan on the moon… If those of the lower authorities directly cut off the power, then him having a higher authority would make so sense.

Therefore, Yama understands that the higher authority granted to him due to having Tenseigan is actually of no use in the face of those who can manually control the Giant Tenseigan on the Moon by merging their consciousness with it.

Anyway, that aside, something has been bothering Yama this time around…

A few years ago, when Yama’s Tenseigan resonated with the Giant Tenseigan, those Otsutsuki Clansmen on the moon chose to immediately cut off the connection with the Shinobi World, thus prioritizing the safety of the Giant Tenseigan, then began to manually investigate the cause of the anomaly.

This series of actions clearly highlighted their conservative and cautious nature.

But this time around, the Otsutsuki Clansmen who found out the anomaly in the Giant Tenseigan neither chose to immediately cut off the connection nor did he try to figure out the identity of the ‘cause’, instead, he chose a completely different approach.

After snooping around the location of this battlefield through the Giant Tenseigan where the ‘cause’ is present, he chose to directly launch a meteorite on the battlefield without a shred of hesitation. Moreover, during the entire process, he still did not cut off the connection of the Giant Tenseigan with the Shinobi World, which he probably did to make the ‘cause’ responsible for the anomaly in the Giant Tenseigan lower his guard and let him end with the meteorite.

This series of actions clearly highlights their impulsive, radical, yet extremely clever nature.

This change from the conservative and cautious person to the radical, impulsive, yet clever person shows that something major must have happened on the Moon, and that’s what’s concerning Yama…

However, Yama doesn’t have enough time to figure out what’s the reason for such a change on the moon as he must find a way to stop the meteorite…

One good thing is that this radical and impulsive Otsutsuki clansman seems to have underestimated the people of the Shinobi World, he neither knew nor considered the possibility that the ‘cause’ of the anomaly in the Giant Tenseigan on the Moon might be another pair of Tenseigan in the Shinobi World.

So, from the moment, he took action to snoop around and eliminate the ‘cause’ of the anomaly in the Giant Tenseigan, his intentions were already detected…

Yama can also guess that at the moment when the Meteorite is about to impact on Earth, the other party will completely cut off the connection between the Giant Tenseigan and the Shinobi World, to make sure that the ‘cause’ has no means to change the final outcome that is complete annihilation!

But even if Yama has figured this out, it still doesn’t make the situation any better!

To be honest Yama really didn’t expect that the radicals of the Otsutsuki Clan would take such a step and directly send a meteorite to Earth…!

And If Yama doesn’t figure out a way to deal with this meteorite, then he can kiss goodbye to all his future plans!

While thinking about how to deal with the approaching Meteorite, Yama lowered his head to look at the members of the Akatsuki Organization on the opposite side and keenly noticed the surprised look on Nagato’s face.

Aside from the completely unexpected move made by the Otsutsuki Clan on the moon, the growth of Nagato this time has also far exceeded Yama’s expectations, in fact, not only Yama’s expectations, but even Nagato’s own, and ‘Madara’ as well as Zetsu’s expectations.

Because of this, Yama can certainly see that Nagato has not been able to display the full extent of his strength by the means of tactics, and also, he failed to take advantage of many good opportunities, that he could have to inflict serious damage on Yama.

Although this proved to be advantageous to Yama, he certainly knows that this advantage is only temporary.

If Yama fails to solve the threat of Nagato this time, then it won’t be very long before Nagato gets used to using all the high-level Dojutsu of the Rinnegan and perfectly integrates them into his fighting style, thus increasing his combat power again by another dimension!

But Yama is not certain if he can do so before completing his Project Godhood, in such a scenario, only by borrowing Chakra from the Giant Tenseigan will he be able to match up to Nagato, and it is obviously impossible for Yama to repeatedly borrow Chakra from the Giant Tenseigan.

To be honest, Yama is now a little scared to borrow any Chakra from the Giant Tenseigan… This time they sent a meteorite, what will it be the next time?

Wouldn’t they choose to directly smash the moon to the Earth?

It’s not impossible… after all, Otsutsuki Toneri did attempt to do so in the cannon!

Therefore, Yama is very clear that no matter what, in the future, he can not rely on the Giant Tenseigan on the Moon, as that would risk the destruction of the entire Earth!

However, this is also a problem… other than the Giant Tenseigan on the Moon, Yama doesn’t have really any clear path ahead that would help him improve his strength… except, of course, Chimera Jutsu… But Yama knows that it will take him at least a few years to complete and perfect that Jutsu.

To have that much time with him, the only option he has now is to put an end to Nagato’s life here and now and destroy the Rinnegan when all his Limbo Clones are either sealed or dead because if this opportunity is missed, then killing Nagato in the future will become even more difficult!

Even if Yama doesn’t know if he can succeed, he must at least give it his best try!

With these complicated thoughts in his mind, Yama ran his brain at full throttle, and quickly formulated a plan that would help him get rid of the threat of the falling meteorite, and also bring him a chance to kill Nagato with minimum effort.

Now that the plan was formulated, the first thing Yama did was speak to telepathically issue an instruction to Toyotama, ‘Toyotama… pass on a message to my Shadow Clone in the village… I want him to get to some secluded place and immediately start absorbing the Natural Energy to enter the Sennin Mode…!’

‘Alright, Kuroto-sama!’ the childish voice of Toyotama was heard in Yama’s mind, indicating that Toyotama has received his instructions.

Now that that’s out of the way, Yama focused all his attention on the plan ahead, and then without any hesitation, under the bright light of the falling meteor burning with fire, he rushed towards the members of Akatsuki Organization on the opposite side.

At this moment, although Yama only has one Truth-Seeking Orb in his hand, it is still more than enough to bring Nagato’s life to an end.

Looking at the rapidly approaching figure of Yama despite the threat of the falling meteor on top of their heads, all the four core members of the Akatsuki Organization couldn’t help but unanimously exclaim in their hearts, “Oi oi, you can’t be serious…! Is he insane or what!?”

Everyone, even with normal eyes can discern that the size of the meteor is quite exaggerating, and should it fall, it will definitely set off large-scale destruction. In such a scenario, what they should be worried about is how to safely escape this calamity, rather than fighting each other… because fighting in such a situation is equivalent to double suicide!

The people of the Akatsuki Organization didn’t believe that Yama wouldn’t understand such a simple truth, as such, they really couldn’t figure out what the hell is going in the mind of the other party!

…

On the side of the people of the Five Great Shinobi Villages.

Sandaime Hokage Hiruzen who was standing at the canopy of a tree suddenly jumped down from it and warned the fellow melon eaters shinobis of the great Shinobi Villages, “Run for your lives…!”

Although these people of the five great Shinobi Villages have repeatedly retreated far away from the main battlefield, however, Sandaime Hokage knew that this distance is safe only from those geography changing Jutsus used by Yama and Nagato.

By no means will this distance be considered safe if they have to withstand the aftereffects and aftershocks of a meteor collision with the Earth’s Surface… therefore, if they wish to live, then they must run for their lives and continue to retreat farther and farther from the main battlefield before the meteorite falls and sets off devastating damage.

Nobody questioned Sandaime Hokage’s words and continued to run farther away from the main battlefield as fast as they can…

And while doing so, Jiraiya repeatedly glanced back at the battlefield from the corner of his eyes, and murmured, “How come a meteorite is suddenly falling here…? Such a phenomenon is too coincidental and strange!”

Toad Fukasaku who was standing on Jiraiya’s shoulder stated with a solemn expression, “This is by no means a coincident!”

Hearing Toad Fukasaku’s words, Jiraiya glanced back with a stiff expression, and can’t help but sigh with emotion, “Are they already strong enough to pull meteorites from the space?”

No one answered Jiraiya’s question, and there was no need to… because each of them including Jiraiya already had an answer in their hearts.

…

On Shisui and Homusubi’s side.

Feeling the threat from the approaching meteorite, both Shisui and Tobi ended their battle in a draw and retreated towards their respective sides.

Shisui who had retreated soon met up with Homusubi on the way.

Both were completely unsure what to do in this situation…

Uchiha Shisui, even with his Sennin Mode, had no confidence to be able to help Yama in the current situation with a meteorite falling on the Earth.

Homusubi’s thoughts were no different from Uchiha Shisui’s. He knew very well that even with the Yata Mirror, he won’t be able to completely resist the aftershocks caused by the collision of the meteorite with the Earth’s surface.

Therefore, while pondering over what to do now, Homusubi glanced at the figure of Yama who was attacking the Akatsuki Organization even in this situation and said decisively to Shisui, “In the given situation, by staying here, rather than help, we will only be a hindrance to Yama. The mission he assigned us has already been completed, and by staying here we are of no help to Yama, and will only add more chaos, so retreating will be the best course of action.”

Shisui thought a little, and asked Fuwafuwa, “What do you think Fuwafuwa-san? Will Yama be able to defeat Nagato? And is there a possible way for us to help him?”

Fuwafuwa yawned in boredom, “Not sure if he can defeat the red-haired guy… I can’t sense anything about him because of that disguise of his… Anyhow, you shouldn’t interfere, as you are not yet strong enough… It’s best to retreat.”

“Ugh… I know I am not strong enough… you don’t have to rub it in!” Shisui sighed then retreated with Homusubi.

As both Shisui and Homusubi along with the two unconscious Jinchuriki disappeared from the battlefield, Fuwafuwa was sitting on Shisui’s shoulder glanced backward at the falling meteorite and murmured to herself “Those Chakra Fluctuations I am sensing from the meteorite… they are exactly the same as the ones from back then… I wonder if…?”

“Were you saying something Fuwafuwa-san?” Shisui asked as he felt Fuwafuwa murmuring something.

“Nothing…” – Fuwafuwa shook her head and thought while yawning, ‘I think I am thinking too much…’
