Kaze roughly skimmed through the notebook Tama had brought back and immediately called it impressive.

Though he still had not figured out which important figure the notebook had belonged to,

the principles behind the Six Powers and the methods for training in them were not only complete, but exceptionally detailed!

According to its descriptions...

Kaze guessed that the notebook's owner had recorded the Six Powers in such detail because he had likely intended to promote this set of physical techniques within the Marines.

That way, Marine Headquarters' overall strength could be raised!

If Tama truly had the ability to travel to another world, then the One Piece timeline there was probably not long after Garp had joined the Marines.

Back when One Piece's Roger was still a rookie pirate.

Of course...

What point in the other world's timeline it was at did not matter to Kaze.

After all, he was not the one with the ability to travel between worlds.

"Nicely done, Tama."

Having obtained such a useful notebook, Kaze was naturally overjoyed.

He immediately praised Tama and stretched out his right hand, intending to pat its cute little head as a reward.

But just as Kaze's fingers were about to touch Tama, it sidestepped and dodged his head pat.

It leaped to the other side of the plate and launched a fierce assault on the crucian carp meat.

To Tama, the food before it was far more appealing than Kaze's head pats.

Watching Tama eat with such gusto, Kaze could only awkwardly pat the air.

Of course...

Now that he suddenly had the training methods for the Six Powers, Kaze naturally could not suppress his urge to learn them.

More importantly...

The Six Powers differed from the Devil Fruit Tama had brought back before.

Only one person could awaken as a Devil Fruit user.

"This means I can teach the Six Powers to other members of the Uchiha Clan."

An idea suddenly came to Kaze.

Just imagine it: dozens of young Uchiha elites activating their Three-Tomoe Sharingan, then standing in midair with Geppo beneath their feet as they surrounded Danzo from every direction.

What kind of spectacle would that be?

Give it up, Danzo. The Uchiha are all outside!

"Tama, you really brought me something incredible this time."

As he spoke, Kaze could not bear to put down the notebook in his hands.

In truth, Kaze knew perfectly well.

If he wanted to become Hokage, relying on his strength alone would be nowhere near enough.

Besides being powerful himself, he needed at least three or four trusted subordinates.

Even Madara Uchiha, that man who acted alone,

had Black Zetsu, Obito, Minato, and the others under his command.

Kaze did not actually want to pick fights with everyone he came across.

He was simply left with no choice.

First came the Konoha leadership. They had always looked down on the Uchiha and had long since reached a point of irreconcilable hostility.

Then there were Fugaku, Shisui, Itachi...

"Fugaku may not be an idiot, but as Clan Head, he offered no resistance whatsoever to the clan's annihilation. That alone is an unforgivable sin."

"Shisui is unwavering in his Will of Fire. According to the original plot, he will not live long."

"As for Itachi..."

Just thinking of Itachi's face made Kaze uncomfortable.

The fact that he had murdered his own parents alone made Kaze shudder.

Not to mention that he had not even spared the women and children of his own clan.

And besides...

Put nicely, Itachi did it for Konoha's greater good.

But after infiltrating the Akatsuki for so many years, what exactly had he accomplished?

In the end, it was Jiraiya who had exchanged his life for information about Pain.

Anyone who treated someone like that as a trusted subordinate would have to have been kicked in the head by a donkey.

After thinking it over, Kaze felt that he should still choose his trusted subordinates from among the other Uchiha.

"Come to think of it, tonight's Clan Meeting is the perfect chance to win people over."

However, to avoid drawing attention, Fugaku had deliberately scheduled the Clan Meeting for ten at night.

As usual, it would be held at Naka Shrine.

Barriers had been set up everywhere there.

Even Anbu and Root ninja could not get close.

That was why the Konoha leadership had confirmed twice that the Uchiha Clan intended to launch a coup: once from what Shisui had said, and once from what Itachi had said.

"Only six o'clock?"

Kaze glanced at the digital clock hanging on the wall. There were still several hours before the Clan Meeting began.

And he was not hungry.

He might as well use this time to learn the Six Powers.

"I should go outside."

Kaze considered it for a moment.

The last time he had experimented with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit's abilities, he had accidentally blown up Fugaku's house.

He worried that while exploring Soru this time, he might stomp through the floor and cause trouble for the people downstairs.

Kaze decided to go to the open-air Training ground near the Naka River.

After all, that place was originally a free activity area for the Uchiha Clan.

Hmm...

Being far from central Konoha was not entirely without benefits.

The forests surrounding the Uchiha Compound had all been designated as Uchiha territory.

With his mind made up, Kaze put away the notebook Tama had brought back, slipped on a loose Haori, and headed for the open-air Training ground near the Naka River.

But what Kaze had not expected was...

When he arrived alone at the open-air Training ground, he happened to see a familiar figure.

It was none other than the man known as the Uchiha prodigy.

Uchiha...

Shisui!

At that moment, Shisui was cleanly throwing a Shuriken at a wooden post twenty meters away.

Then he rapidly formed hand seals with both hands.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Several clouds of smoke appeared out of thin air around the flying Shuriken, and sharp black Shuriken flew out from within them.

They complemented the Shuriken Shisui had thrown, striking the wooden post in a rapid series of clatters.

What astonished Kaze most was...

The entire process had flowed seamlessly and taken barely the time of a blink.

The Shuriken had sunk a third of their length into the wooden post.

If the target had been a ninja, they would have definitely collapsed by now.

What an impressive Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique.

Seeing Shisui's display, Kaze could not help but praise him inwardly.

Though Kaze and Shisui stood on irreconcilable sides, he still greatly acknowledged Shisui's strength.

Otherwise, he would not have regarded Shisui as his primary hypothetical enemy.

Whenever Kaze thought of Shisui's eventual fate, he could not help but sigh.

However, Shisui had always been perceptive. Noticing someone enter the Training ground, he immediately stopped training.

He turned to look at the newcomer.

When he saw that it was Kaze, a trace of surprise flashed through his eyes.

"Kaze? Why are you here?"

In Shisui's memory, Kaze rarely came here and had never shown any enthusiasm for his daily training.

Shisui truly had not expected him to suddenly come here.

"Oh, I came here to have fun."

Kaze replied unhurriedly, gesturing for Shisui not to mind him and to continue.

Kaze also tactfully kept some distance from Shisui.

He planned to practice Soru.

Shisui, on the other hand, fell into thought.

"There are still several hours until tonight's Clan Meeting. Why not, while we're here..."

"Assess Kaze's strength?"
