Still, it counted as a small gain.
At the very least, he had more or less exhausted Uchiha Nobuhiko's mass-produced Rinnegan. With no way to replenish them now...
There would be no more room for evasive maneuvering.
With that thought in mind, White-robed Chiba pursed his lips and rapidly considered his options.
The mass-produced Rinnegan was one of the powers that he and Uchiha Nobuhiko had created, aside from soul-splitting—powers that transcended the Shinobi World, or rather, powers that should never have been possible in this Shinobi World.
It was also a special application they had discovered for the Rinnegan, that Supreme Power.

It required two materials. One was a Sharingan developed to the Three Tomoe stage, and the other was Rinnegan ocular power belonging to the Supreme Power.
Then, all that was needed was a technique somewhere between Curse Mark Jutsu and Sealing Jutsu to store the Rinnegan's ocular power.
The process was simple. A portion of the Supreme Power Rinnegan's ocular power was stored in a Three Tomoe Sharingan through that technique between Curse Mark Jutsu and Sealing Jutsu. When needed, it could then be released. Once the Rinnegan ocular power was released, the Three Tomoe Sharingan would temporarily become a Rinnegan and could use the Rinnegan's ocular techniques.
