Reborn in Naruto As Madara's Grandson

"My name is Kozue and I am a member of the Shinrin clan."

The tall man introduces himself as he warily stares at Izuna.

'Man! This middle-aged guy is so scary. He can even see through my clan's Hiden Techniques.'

Gulp…

Kozue gulps his saliva.

"Hmm… Shinrin Clan?! Never heard of it."

Izuna shakes his head as he has no memory of the clan.

'I have read various records of various clans existing in Shinobi World in Konoha's library. There is no clan with such a name. Either this clan is quite well-hidden, or it is extinct. Perhaps this guy is the only survivor of his clan."

Izuna leans towards the second possibility.

Izuna undoes his transformation and returns to his Original appearance.

"Since it has come to this; there is no use of any disguise."

Aah…

Kozue's eyes widen in surprise as he notices the Sharingan.

"Uchiha clan?!… You are a member of the Uchiha Clan!"

"So!" Izuna raises a eyebrow.

"Nothing! Nothing!" Kozue shakes his head.

Hmm…

Izuna turns around as he feels a tug on his sleeve.

"What's the matter, Kimimaro?" He asks Kimimaro.

"Aaa… angel-san! The… the giant turtle is in pain. He is asking for help."

"OH!"

Izuna turns towards Kozue as his expression turns serious. He riles up his chakra as he pressures Kozue.

Gulp…

Kozue gulps his saliva as a hint of terror appears in his eyes.

"Are you the one behind this incident?"

"N… No… it's not me…"

Swoosh… stab…

Before Kozue could finish his sentence; a long Katana pierces through Izuna's body.

AAH!

Izuna's eyes widen in his surprise as the Katana pierces through his heart.

Sizzle… Sizzle…

The Katana releases an eerie purple chakra as it corrodes Izuna's skin.

"Curse Technique: Death Demon Possession Seal"

Bleurgh…

A curse seal appears near Izuna's heart. The seal comprises an inverse triangle with a vertical eye in its center.

HAHA…

"Finally, I fulfilled my mission."

A man cloaked in red clothes appears behind Izuna as he holds the Katana.

Whoosh…

Kimimaro flickers beside the cloaked man as he attacks the man with a dark-gray bone.

BANG…

The man lifts his leg and kicks Kimimaro in the nearby rock wall.

The curse seals crawl over Izuna's chest as it tries to possess him.

Bleurgh…

Izuna spits out another mouthful of blood as he slowly turns towards the attacker.

"You are… who are you?"

HAHA…

The cloaked man removes his red garb to reveal his face.

A bald man in his late fifties appears in their vision. The man has shriveled hands and there is a curse mark on his forehead.

The mark has a similar appearance to the one on Izuna's chest.

"Vi… Village Chief?!"

Fusao's eyes widen in surprise as he notices the old man.

Previously, the appearance of Izuna agitated him a little. But he was able to shrug off the feeling; since everyone in Shangri-La wore a disguise, he being no different. But the appearance of the village chief shocked him to his core.

Drip… drip…

Blood drips from Izuna's chest as the seal restricts his chakra.

Swirl…

The blood slowly flows on the ground as it forms a similar blood seal on the ground.

'I can't use my chakra. This seal is slowly sealing my chakra.'

Izuna has an ugly appearance on his face. The sword stabbing through his heart doesn't bother him much.

He can regenerate from this injury as long as his heart is still in his body. What surprised him more is the sudden appearance of the village chief and the sneak attack while his guard was down.

'Sin! Help me break free from this seal.'

Izuna makes a mental remark to the Sin Seal.

Whoosh…

The sin seal slowly gathers chakra as it prepares to break the seal.

'It will take some time before the seal will break; till then I have to figure out the intention of this old man.'

Haha…

"Finally… I have found a suitable vessel for Kishin-sama. With this, Kishin-sama will be able to break free from his seal and rule over this world."

The village Chief has a fervent expression on his face as he bows in front of Izuna.

"Kishin?!"

Izuna has a confused expression on his face.

Drip… Drip…

Blood continues to drain from his body as the Katana continues to release an ominous chakra in his body. The seal around his chest expands as Izuna slowly losses control of his body.

"Who is this Kishin you speak of?" Izuna weakly questions the bald Village chief.

Hmph…

The village chief snorts as he answers.

"Since you are going to be the new host of Kishin-sama; there is no harm in revealing the facts to you. Anyway, you heretic will die a miserable death…"

"Host to Kishin?!…"

Various questions erupt in Izuna's mind as the gears in his mind churns.

'Is it some sort of Possession?! The Yamanaka clan can also possess someone else's body, but they can only do so for a short amount of time. I wonder what kind of possession this is? I have to dig out some information from this guy as I wait for Sin to dispel the seal.'

Haha…

The bald village chief laughs hysterically as he has a fervent expression on his face.

"Kishin-sama is a God who once descended on this world a millennium ago. Kishin-sama led his army and single-handedly established his one-thousand-year Kingdom. He bought true peace to this world as he reigned supreme over the world…"

Reverence flickers in the village chief's eyes as he continues to bicker his story.

"However, a hated guy who called himself the 'Traveler' appeared out of nowhere and fought against the Lord Kishin. Their battle was legendary as it shook the land and mountain."

'Hmm… Traveler again?! Just who is this guy?! I have heard various tales of this person from the Toads, Slugs, and the snakes. Even the monkey and dogs know about him. Just who is he? Is he similar to Otsutsuki clan members; another cosmic parasite, or he is like that purple-cloaked man.'

Wariness appears in Izuna's eyes.

'Also… this Kishin God and his symbol. It reminds me of the Jashin cultist. Are they somehow related?'

"In the end, that hated guy sealed Kishin-sama in this sword with a very powerful seal. We are descendants of the clan which followed Kishin-sama during the warm, and finally we will set him free as Kishin-sama will once again rise and reestablish his Kingdom."

The village chief finishes his story as he turns to Izuna.

"The seal on the sword weakened over time. Now once Kishin-sama takes possession of your body; he will once again rule the entire world."

Ambition reflects in Village Chief's eyes as he tightly clutches his staff.

Wham…

A surge of purple chakra course through Izuna's body as he feels light-headed.

His vision turns blurry as he gets pulled into his Mindspace.

Huh!

Izuna slowly opens his eyes as a vast expanse of white space appears in front of him.

He turns towards the center of his Mindspace as multiple floating orbs appear in his vision.

"Why am I pulled in my mindscape?"

Izuna warily inspects his surroundings.

Swoosh… swoosh…

Suddenly, the dark ominous chakra invades his mindscape as it slowly covers his mindscape. The dark shade of chakra slowly erodes the white area as it slowly crawls towards the center.

"Is this the so-called possession? Invading the Mindscape of a person and gain control of their body!"

Humph!

"If so… then I won't go down without a fight."

Whoosh… whoosh…

Izuna urges the various orbs floating behind him towards the ominous chakra.

In the outside world,

Swish… whoosh…

The possession seal covers the entire chest area of Izuna and it crawls near the sin seal.

Swoosh…

Various fuinjutsu seals and marking crawls out of the Sin Seal as it resists the invasion of the curse seals.

Whoosh…

A quick, agile figure jumps out of the dust and debris. Kimimaro is in his white snake mode. Green Nature energy flickers around his body.

"Dance of the Clematis: Vine"

Kimimaro pulls his spine and infuse it with Nature energy.

Swirl…

The bones of the spine turn grey and form a long whip.

Smack…

Without wasting any moment, Kimimaro smacks the bone whip towards the village chief.

Whoosh…

The village chief jumps and avoids the attack. He turns towards Kimimaro as his expression turns serious.

"After so much preparations, I was able to lure out the perfect host for Kishin-sama. Too bad, only one of them fell for the bait; the other person didn't show up."

The village chief shakes his head as he laments.

"Kishin-sama would have a spare body if the Leader of the Akatsuki also showed up. Anyway, the body of Izuna Uchiha is fine too. With that being the case… I won't allow anyone to interfere with the ritual of possession."

The Village Chief turns towards Kozue.

"Hold him back for me… or else you know the consequences." He threatens Kozue.

Gulp…

"Yes… yes… Village Chief."

Kozue gulps his saliva and stretches his arms.

"Secret Technique: Vine of Solitude"

Swish…

A dark green vine with spiky thorns sprouts from his palm.

Smack…

Kozue smacks it on the ground and fights against Kimimaro.
