Naruto: Betrayed From The Start

---

"I've had my fill."

Kenshi lay down on the sofa chair, suddenly becoming quiet. He stared blankly at the white clouds in the distant sky.

He didn't know when, but Kenshi fell asleep.

This was the first time he had fallen asleep without creating a shadow clone to watch over him.

Asleep, Kenshi's face was calm, as if he was carefree and had no desires.

Suddenly arriving in this world, Kenshi was lost.

Before he could adapt to his new self in this world, he suffered the kind of torture he had only seen in some twisted movies and TV shows.

His spirit had actually collapsed countless times, but it was because of his special consciousness that he was able to maintain himself.

This calmness now was also a kind of post-traumatic stress disorder.

Night.

The moon rose high.

Kenshi woke up. The quiet, death-like expression on his face began to show signs of life. He felt good.

He got up, sat down at the dining table, and took out all his belongings, placing them on the table.

He had seven ration pills left, three sealing scrolls, and twenty detonating tags, which he had obtained from the two Konoha ninjas who were guarding the noble's house.

That was all his belongings. Not much.

But they were all useful.

Three sealing scrolls: one sealed the heads of the Third Hokage's daughters, one sealed four roast chickens, and another sealed twenty bowls of eel rice.

Ration pills were essential for escaping.

Detonating tags... Kenshi picked up a detonating tag and carefully sensed it. He had always been curious about the principle of detonating tags. Now, he finally had time to sit down and study them carefully.

"The paper is the same as the paper used for sealing scrolls. It should be the same kind of paper. They both have the effect of storing and stabilizing Chakra."

The black jutsu patterns on them, although different, had similar structures. They could even be said to be the same.

They were all simplified drawings of the sun.

The black jutsu patterns in the middle formed a circle, with the word "爆" (Explosion) or "封" (Seal) written inside. Then, several black jutsu patterns shot out from the circle like rays of sunlight.

The specific sealing jutsu patterns were different, but they all followed this format.

Looking at it this way, a detonating tag could also be considered a sealing scroll, sealing "爆" (Explosion), a kind of explosive... bomb?

No, no, no. It shouldn't be a real bomb, but an explosive jutsu.

He seemed to remember an episode in the anime where Shikamaru also took out a sealing scroll. It had the word "水" (Water) written on it. When he unsealed it, water came out of the scroll.

That shouldn't have been real water sealed in the scroll. It should have been a Water Release jutsu sealed in the scroll. When he released the sealing scroll, it was like releasing a Water Release jutsu.

"Let's see if that's the case."

Kenshi, with a thought, condensed the "爆" (Explosion) Chakra he had copied from the detonating tag.

"It's Fire Release Chakra."

The moment he condensed it, Kenshi sensed that the "爆" (Explosion) jutsu Chakra sealed in the detonating tag was simply pure Fire Release Chakra. It didn't have an explosive effect.

So, the "爆" (Explosion) character sealed only Fire Release Chakra.

Kenshi continued to sense the black jutsu patterns on the detonating tag.

"The detonating tag explodes, not because it seals an explosive Fire Release jutsu, but because the sealed Fire Release Chakra is transformed into an explosive jutsu through the black jutsu patterns on the detonating tag."

Kenshi had a guess.

He injected a little Chakra into the detonating tag in his hand. Instantly, he felt a connection with the detonating tag. He could make the Chakra in the detonating tag flow at any time.

"So, that's how detonating tags are detonated."

Kenshi smiled. He had guessed the principle of detonating tags.

He casually threw the detonating tag ten meters into the air, then with a thought, the Chakra in the black jutsu patterns on the detonating tag instantly flowed. The "爆" (Explosion) character lit up, and instantly, the detonating tag was like gunpowder being ignited.

"Bang!"

The detonating tag in the air turned into a ball of fire and exploded, creating a gust of hot wind that blew towards Kenshi, blowing his black hair.

"The power is not bad."

Kenshi nodded. Most of the strong people in the world of Naruto didn't have strong fleshly defenses. If they were hit by a detonating tag at close range, it was common to lose a leg or arm.

Obito was blown off one hand by Konan's detonating tags.

Tsunade's younger brother was even mocked by Naruto fans as the only ninja in the ninja world who was killed by a detonating tag.

Kenshi waved his hand, dispersing the smoke from the hot wind, then picked up another detonating tag on the table.

This time, Kenshi could confirm that the black jutsu patterns on the detonating tag had a similar function to the hand seals ninjas formed when using jutsu.

Ninjas, by forming hand seals in a specific order, transformed their normal Chakra into jutsu Chakra with specific nature transformations, thereby releasing specific jutsu.

Detonating tags, on the other hand, used the black patterns to make the Fire Release Chakra flow through the black jutsu patterns, transforming it into Fire Release jutsu Chakra, thereby releasing an explosive Fire Release jutsu.

To put it simply, the black jutsu patterns on the detonating tag were the process of forming hand seals. The Chakra flowed through them, transforming the Chakra's nature, and finally forming the corresponding jutsu Chakra to release the jutsu.

Storage sealing scrolls were actually the same.

Kenshi put down the detonating tag and picked up a storage sealing scroll. After inputting Chakra, the sealing jutsu patterns on the storage sealing scroll lit up. Normal Chakra flowed through them, transforming into Chakra with a specific nature transformation, finally forming a jutsu.

Boom... After a puff of smoke, four lotus leaf-wrapped roast chickens appeared.

Kenshi inputted Chakra again, activating the black jutsu patterns on the scroll to transform the Chakra's nature and release the corresponding jutsu, resealing the roast chickens.

The principle was the same as the detonating tag. It was all about Chakra flowing through the black jutsu patterns, transforming and giving it a specific nature transformation, forming a jutsu Chakra that could put real objects into the sealing space.

Extending this, various sealing jutsu seemed to be the same.

But that's not right... Kenshi suddenly thought of the Adamantine Binding Chains and his Black Iron Chains.

His Black Iron Chains were... hmm, wait.

Kenshi suddenly frowned, thought carefully, and then smiled in realization.

"The principle is still the same."

Kenshi, with a thought, shot out the Black Iron Chains and the Adamantine Binding Chains from his left and right shoulders.

Observing the Black Iron Chains and the Adamantine Binding Chains carefully, he realized that they were actually jutsu Chakra states formed after Chakra was activated and transformed into Chakra with specific nature transformations through the black jutsu patterns.

Thinking back, the sealing jutsu that the Third Hokage and Danzō had placed on him was always active, which meant it was in the jutsu Chakra state.

That's why the sealing jutsu Chakra he copied already had the effect of sealing jutsu.

The Chakra in the detonating tag was just normal Fire Release Chakra. It hadn't flowed through the black jutsu patterns to form complete Fire Release jutsu Chakra. So, the Chakra he copied and condensed was just the normal Fire Release Chakra that others had left in the detonating tag.

If he could copy and condense the Fire Release jutsu Chakra after the detonating tag was activated, he should be able to have an explosive Fire Release jutsu Chakra.

Thinking about this, Kenshi walked to the edge of the platform, inputting Chakra to activate the detonating tag in his hand. Thankfully, he stopped at the last moment.

"Close call!"

Kenshi wiped the sweat from his forehead. His fleshly defense wasn't strong either. If the detonating tag in his hand exploded, he might become the second ninja, after Shisui, to be blown up by a detonating tag.

Kenshi, with a thought, put on his full set of Black Iron Armor.

With the Black Iron Armor, he didn't have to worry about the detonating tag in his hand exploding.

"Bang!"

Kenshi detonated the detonating tag. The flames dissipated. With the Black Iron Armor protecting his hand, the detonating tag's explosion, which wasn't that powerful, didn't cause him any harm.

At this time, Kenshi completely ignored the explosion. Through close-range sensing, he clearly sensed the Fire Release jutsu Chakra that had been transformed by the black jutsu patterns when the detonating tag exploded.

Kenshi stretched out his right hand and opened it. With a thought, he copied and condensed the Fire Release jutsu Chakra from the detonating tag explosion.

A ball of orange-red Chakra formed in the palm of Kenshi's hand. It was the Fire Release jutsu Chakra after the detonating tag was activated.

But... Kenshi, with a thought, didn't let the fireball in his hand explode.

Kenshi frowned, thought for a moment, and glanced at the detonating tag on the table. He had a guess.

Detonating tags were probably like Super Beast Imitation Painting jutsu. They needed a carrier to complete the final jutsu effect.

Condensing the Fire Release jutsu Chakra from the detonating tag was useless. He needed Chakra paper as a carrier to create an explosion like the detonating tag.

"Then... does the jutsu Chakra on the storage sealing scroll also need a carrier?"

Kenshi thought to himself, then turned back and sat down, picking up a sealing scroll again and opening it.
