"Tsunade, do you know of any Kekkei Genkai users in Konoha?"
Shin asked Tsunade during breakfast the next morning.
Tsunade looked at him curiously. "Kekkei Genkai are rare in the Shinobi World. There aren't many in Konoha."
"There's the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan, the Hyūga Clan's Byakugan, the Senju Clan's Sage Body, your Uzumaki Clan, and... the Kurama Clan."
Shin's eyes lit up when he heard the na "Kurama Clan." He had completely forgotten about them.
Thanks to Tsunade's reminder, he rembered. The Kurama Clan possessed a powerful Kekkei Genkai: Five Senses Control.
A Genjutsu that could control the five senses and even turn illusions into reality. It was the pinnacle of Yin Release.
Yin Release could create form out of nothingness, while Yang Release could breathe life into form. Together, they could create life.
Shin didn't know if this Five Senses Control was comparable to Aizen Sōsuke's Kyōka Suigetsu from Bleach, but it was undoubtedly powerful.
It probably wasn't as potent as Kyōka Suigetsu, though. Otherwise, the Kurama Clan wouldn't be such a small clan.
If they could truly control all five senses, dominating the Shinobi world wouldn't be impossible.
"Tsunade, are there any Kurama Clan mbers who have awakened their Kekkei Genkai?"
Shin asked.
He wanted to copy this Kekkei Genkai.
The Kurama Clan might have a powerful ability, but their weak constitutions might prevent them from utilizing it fully.
The Kurama Clan was known for their frail bodies. They tired easily and probably didn't have large Chakra reserves.
Chakra was extracted from cells. A weak body ant limited Chakra.
"There used to be quite a few Kurama with Kekkei Genkai. They were once as prominent as the Senju and Uchiha Clans. But now they've declined. I think there's only one with an awakened Kekkei Genkai."
Tsunade answered, curious about his interest in the Kurama Clan.
"That's good. I was afraid there might be none."
Shin was relieved. If there were no Kekkei Genkai users in the Kurama Clan, he'd have to wait for Yakumo Kurama to be born.
But that was over a decade away. He didn't have ti to wait.
And by then, he might not even need the Kurama Clan's Kekkei Genkai.
"Shin, why are you asking about this?" Kushina asked curiously.
Mikoto and Tsunade were also curious.
"It's a secret."
Shin shook his head. So secrets were better left unsaid.
"Tsunade, do you know where this Kurama Clan mber is?"
"He's in the Konoha Torture and Interrogation Force. With his powerful Genjutsu, he's the head of the departnt."
The Konoha Torture and Interrogation Force. It was a position well-suited for the Uchiha Clan, but Hiruzen wouldn't allow it.
"I want to et him. Can you take ?" Shin asked Tsunade.
He couldn't et the head of the Torture and Interrogation Force on his own. It was an Anbu departnt.
Tsunade looked at Shin, then nodded.
"You agreed? Aren't you going to ask why?" Shin was surprised.
"Would you tell if I asked?"
Shin chuckled awkwardly. He couldn't tell her.
"Let's go."
Tsunade and Shin left. Kushina and Mikoto stayed behind.
Even as the Sandai Hokage's disciple, Tsunade couldn't enter the Torture and Interrogation Force freely. But she could summon its leader, Kurama Kaze.
"Tsunade-sama, you summoned ?"
Kaze was surprised. He hadn't expected the Senju Clan princess to seek him out.
The Kurama Clan was no longer prominent. To him, Tsunade was an important figure.
Tsunade looked at Shin. It wasn't her who wanted to see Kaze, but Shin. She had no idea what he was planning.
"Kurama-san, I hear you're quite skilled in Genjutsu. I was wondering if you could teach ." Shin said with a smile.
But as he spoke, he used an Advanced Replication Card to Copy Kaze's Five Senses Control.
He felt his already powerful ntal energy surge. Even his ocular power increased, causing a tingling sensation in his eyes.
He blinked a few tis until the tingling subsided.
He could sense a change in his Mangekyō Sharingan. It hadn't evolved into the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan yet, but it was showing signs of it.
Shin was ecstatic. This was an unexpected bonus.
Kaze looked at Shin, his expression troubled. Shin wanted to learn Genjutsu from him, but he wasn't keen on teaching.
But if he refused, would he anger Tsunade? She was right here, after all.
Tsunade glanced at Shin, puzzled. Why would he need to learn Genjutsu from Kaze when he had the Mangekyō Sharingan? She knew Shin must have another motive.
"I apologize, but I don't have the ti to teach you," Kaze said apologetically.
He had decided to refuse. He turned to Tsunade. "As you know, Tsunade-sama, the Torture and Interrogation Force is quite busy. I don't have the ti to teach."
He was afraid of angering Tsunade. The Kurama Clan couldn't afford to make enemies of her.
"That's a sha, but I understand." Shin said.
Asking for Genjutsu lessons was just an excuse. Approaching Kaze without a reason would be suspicious.
Shin's goal was the Kekkei Genkai; he didn't care about anything else. Whether Kaze agreed or refused, it didn't matter.
He actually preferred it if Kaze refused. He had no intention of taking lessons.
"Tsunade, let's go," Shin said.
Tsunade glanced at him, still clueless about his motives. But since he was ready to leave, she followed.
As they left, Kaze's eyes widened. Sothing felt off. Why was Tsunade acting like that kid's follower?
It must be his imagination.
If Tsunade knew Kaze thought of her as Shin's follower, she would probably punch him. His frail body wouldn't be able to withstand a single blow.
