After completing the task of eliminating Yomis cult, Kuroto immediately returned to Konoha and directly sneaked into his laboratory.

Now that the Ryuumyaku has been extracted from his body and sealed into the portable Gourd artifact, Kuroto no longer has to worry about the risk of Ryuumyaku going on a rampage while he uses the Tenseigan Soul Descend.

Coming to the laboratory, Kuroto looked at the Kazekage puppet who was standing beside him and thought a little.

The security of the laboratory cannot be compromised, no matter what!

This laboratory hides most of Kurotos secrets, and he must ensure that its safety isnt affected. Therefore, Kuroto must see that the Kazekage Puppet remains active even when Kuroto uses the Soul Descend.

After all, once he uses the Tenseigan Soul Descend to transfer his soul from the main body to the Clone body, the Tenseigan itself will become inactive so Kuroto wouldnt be able to regularly transfer the Tenseigan Chakra to the Kazekage puppet which is required for its working and functioning.

So, after thinking a little, he decided to use another method and that is to seal a large volume of Tenseigan Chakra inside the Kazekage puppet.

This method isnt that uncommon in the Shinobi world.

Just before their death, Yondaime-Sama and his wife Uzumaki Kushina sealed all their remaining Chakra inside the body of their child Uzumaki Naruto, so that they could help Naruto tide over the difficulties in the times of crisis.

And Orochimaru also uses the Curse Seal technique to store his Chakra inside other shinobi as a backhand to ensure his resurrection.

Therefore, Kuroto can also use a Chakra Sealing method to ensure the continuous functioning of the Kazekage puppet.

Being a full-fledged activist, once Kuroto has an idea, he immediately tries it.

With that decision, he turned towards the Kazekage puppet and pressed his right hand on the puppets chest area, and immediately a huge volume of Tenseigan Chakra flowed along with his right hand and transferred into the Kazekage Puppet.

Instantly, a bluish gleam appeared around the puppets body.

When the amount of Chakra transferred was more than enough, Kuroto immediately performed the sealing technique.

The Four-Symbols Seal: Seal!

With the completion of the sealing technique, a series of black symbols spread around the chest of the Kazekage puppet and quickly contracted into a small size Four-Symbols Seal Techniques symbol on the chest.

When Kuroto was done, he casually asked the puppet while monitoring its state, So, how do you feel?

After a short pause, Kazekage Puppet felt it and replied, Kuroto-Sama, with this amount of Chakra; if I dont partake in any battle, then the continuous functioning will last for about three months give or take.

Kuroto nodded in satisfaction.

Although a period of three months is not very long, it is still more than enough.

As for how long the sealed Chakra will last if the Puppet were to participate in a battle is hard to say, as different amount of chakra is consumed against different opponents, so no one can make an accurate estimation.

And thats not very important for now.

After dealing with this issue, Kuroto immediately used the Tenseigan Soul Descend Technique to transfer his soul into the Clone-A body.

After putting on his clothes, and adjusting the Ryuumyaku Gourd, along with all the necessary tools and his Kusanagi Sword around his waist, Kuroto left the laboratory in his water Clone body.

At its current state, the Clone-A body is obviously far from being perfect to be ready for being used in the Chimera Technique as per Kurotos standards.

Firstly, he has to let this clone which is just an accumulation of the fusion of his and Hakus cells to adapt to his soul to achieve a Yin-Yang balance between the strength of Soul and Body.

This step is crucial!

If Kuroto doesnt do this, then there wouldnt be any essential difference between the Chimera Technique he plans to use and the one Hiruko plans to.

Secondly, Kuroto has to further cultivate the Water Clone to increase its strength, so that its strength is around the same level as his main body.

The reason for doing this is to have the same Chakra intensity of all seven natures to achieve a perfect balance when fusing them through the Chimera Technique.

Now, this is obviously very difficult because the Water Clone doesnt have the Tenseigan or anything that would help him reach the level as a Super Kage, but meh theres no harm in trying, anyway, he has a lot of time in his hands, Kuroto will eventually find out some method to compensate.

Only in this way will he be able to reach a perfect balance of seven natures, to reach Kekkei Mora.

Walking out of the Secret Laboratory, Kuroto applied a simple Transformation Technique upon himself to change the color of Clone-As Black hair into brown; to avoid dealing with unnecessary troubles and came to the Underground residence where Haku was living temporarily.

Seeing Kurotos arrival, Haku let go of the little rabbit from his hands to the ground and quickly greeted Kuroto, Kuroto-Sama!

Kuroto nodded towards Haku and asked, Are you somewhat used to living here?

The little rabbit that Haku was playing with was actually a test subject that Kuroto didnt use, and after he met OkinaButa he didnt need to use it anymore.

Initially, he kept it to use it as food, but because Yui loves rabbits very much, so this one was left alive.

Just to make sure that Haku doesnt get bored all the time while he lived in the underground residence, Kuroto decided to bring the little guy here as a playmate for Haku.

Now a rabbit as a playmate may sound strange, but its still better over nothing.

Haku nodded repeatedly towards Kurotos question.

With initial greetings out of the way, Kuroto spoke, Alright, if thats so then its good, now put Maron in her cage and follow me.

After giving this order, Kuroto turned and left the underground residence.

Haku also put Maron in her cage and quickly followed behind Kuroto and asked curiously, Kuroto-Sama, are we going to practice ninjutsu?

The corner of Kurotos lips curved and he spoke, Yes! While he thought silently to himself, Unfortunately Haku, you wont, I will be practicing ninjutsu with your help!

A short while later, Kuroto and Haku came near a lake at the lower reaches of the Naka River, far from the village, and way out of the patrol range, a safe place to practice ninjutsu and not attract unwanted attention.

Coming by the lakeside, Kuroto looked at the sparkling lake water with some emotions, he was reminded of some of his past.

Sighing lightly to not think about it, for now. Kuroto turned towards Haku and spoke, Haku, at Orochimaru-Samas place, you must have learned some Water Release Techniques, right?

Haku nodded ignorantly.

With that confirmation, Kuroto pointed towards the lake and said, Currently we are near a water body, so you can practice all those ninjutsu to higher proficiency, therefore show me all the Water Release Techniques that you have mastered!

Haku was a little doubtful, the last time Kuroto ordered him to practice Ice Release Techniques, but how come today he suddenly ordered for him to show Water release Technique?

However, even if the kid was doubtful, he didnt dare refuse or question Kurotos orders, Haku is still somewhat afraid of Kuroto because of witnessing the battle with Orochimaru.

So, nodding as per Kurotos orders, Haku walked towards the lake and started printing hand seals to use Water release techniques.

Tiger Ox Tiger Rat: Water Release: Water Bullet Technique!

As soon as he finished printing, a large amount of Chakra kneaded in Hakus stomach and he expelled a large quantity of water from his mouth in the form of a torrent towards the lake.

Hm, a Class-C ninjutsu after a nod, he added, Continue!

With Kurotos order, Haku again started printing hand seals to perform other water-release ninjutsu.

Dragon Tiger Hare: Water Release: Wild Water Wave!

Dragon Tiger Hare: Water Release: Water Trumpet!

Ox Monkey Hare Rat Boar Bird Ox Horse Bird Rat Tiger Dog Tiger Snake Ox Ram Snake Boar Ram Rat Yang Water Monkey Bird Dragon Bird Ox Horse Ram Tiger Snake Rat Monkey Hare Boar Dragon Ram Rat Ox Monkey Bird Yang Water Rat Boar Bird: Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!

Hooh, Nidaime-Samas Jutsu? thought Kuroto in surprise.

Water Gun Technique!

Water release: Rising Water Slicer!

After performing five Water Style Jutsu one-after-another even with the help of a water source nearby, Haku was already out of breath.

Kuroto observed him and asked, Do you know any other Water Release Techniques?

Haku replied lightly while trying to catch his breath, I I can still use the Waterfall Technique, but I dont have enough Chakra left.

Waterfall Technique!? Kuroto was slightly taken aback and asked, Waterfall Technique is the reduced version of the Great Waterfall Technique, you learned it at such a young age?

When asked this question, Haku lowered his head and replied, At Orochimaru-Samas place Iif I cant learn ninjutsu, I dont get to have dinner.

Kuroto just smiled at Hakus reply and didnt say much.

This isnt strange or anything new, even Anko-Chan had to suffer from such punishments back when they were training under Orochimaru, thankfully Kuroto was a researcher and had to practice the Hyuga Style Taijutsu, therefore, he wasnt subject to such punishments, but that wasnt the case with Anko, who would repeatedly complain and bad mouth Orochimaru whenever she would meet Yui.

And according to Orochimaru, not giving dinner is just a light punishment, but even such light punishment led Haku to master quite a lot of Water Release Techniques in a short time and at such a young age. This shows that Hakus talent is really exceptional.

If Haku could become so dangerous and strong with just wandering around as a mercenary under Zabuzas tutelage, then his future achievements will undoubtedly be highly exceptional under Orochimarus teachings!
