Shisui had no idea what had happened to Seisui.

In his memories, Seisui was a gentle, even somewhat weak-willed Uchiha.

Though his talent was poor, he enjoyed helping others and had always doted on Shisui, his younger brother.

He cooked for him, bought him new ninja tools and snacks, listened to his troubles, and lately had even told him interesting bedtime stories.

To Shisui, even without strength, Seisui was still the best older brother in his heart.

And now, Shisui was pleasantly surprised. His brother, who had always gone unnoticed, seemed to be a genius?

But in Shisui's heart, Seisui was the older brother who ought to be protected by him.

At that moment, the Uchiha Clan's competitive bloodline and a younger brother's desire to protect him erupted, and Shisui directly revealed his trump card!

Not yet six years old, he had already awakened his eyes—and one of them even had Double Tomoe.

Looking at Shisui's Sharingan, Seisui stroked his chin, reflecting that although they were from the same clan, some people had their entire clan slaughtered and watched their parents die before them, yet that was all they amounted to.

While others could awaken their eyes just by staying home and brooding over the village's and clan's future until they suffered internal injuries.

The gap between people was sometimes even greater than the gap between people and dogs...

"Brother, you know perfectly well what kind of power these eyes contain, don't you...?"

The Sharingan glowed red. Its Dojutsu carried a cold aura, making even Shisui's adorable little face look somewhat ferocious.

Seisui was a little surprised. He had not known that Shisui had awakened the Sharingan, but he still smiled, nodded, and said softly:

"The Sharingan is the foundation upon which our Uchiha Clan stands above the Shinobi World."

"It possesses three abilities: observation, copying, and hypnosis. Those who possess these eyes are not only immune to Genjutsu, but can also copy taijutsu and ninjutsu, and observe the flow of Chakra to predict an enemy's movements."

"That is why the Uchiha Clan earned this saying: never face an awakened Uchiha alone, especially one with Three Tomoe."

Shisui proudly raised his little face, entirely unlike the modest and low-key demeanor he displayed at the Ninja Academy.

Before Seisui, he greatly enjoyed displaying his outstanding strength and receiving praise from his brother.

"So, Brother, surrender to your little brother..."

The red glow in Shisui's eyes flickered as his greatest specialty, Genjutsu, silently activated. At that moment, he concentrated all his Dojutsu into his technique!

But faster than Shisui could concentrate his Dojutsu was Seisui closing his eyes.

Watching Seisui close his eyes, Shisui shook his head with pride and a hint of sadness, silently thinking, Brother, I'm sorry.

Even if you've hidden such strength, without the Sharingan, you still can't defeat a genius like me...

How helpless an Uchiha with closed eyes must be...

Just as Shisui was inwardly feeling indignant on Seisui's behalf,

Seisui swiftly formed several hand seals.

Immediately afterward, endless darkness engulfed Shisui's vision, cutting off his complicated thoughts.

"Genjutsu: Bringer-of-Darkness Technique..."

Seisui slowly opened his eyes and explained to his younger brother with a faint smile:

"This Genjutsu was developed by the First Hokage in his early years to deal with Madara Uchiha. Later, it was improved by a certain incompetent Hokage into an even more powerful technique..."

"Even an ordinary Three Tomoe needs time to dispel this Genjutsu, because it incorporates some properties of Fuinjutsu."

Shisui drove his Sharingan with all his strength, yet the Sharingan he had always taken pride in could not see through the darkness before him.

Tobirama Senju, who had been seriously watching the livestream, had no time to care about Seisui's covert criticism of him. Stifled emotions piled up within him, as though a massive boulder were pressing down on his heart!

What had he just seen?

This evil little Uchiha brat had not only learned his simplified hand-seal Water Release, but had also brought out the Genjutsu he had painstakingly improved to deal with the Uchiha Clan!

This feeling, this feeling...

Tobirama Senju found it utterly absurd, especially since the Bringer-of-Darkness Technique Seisui had cast was so perfect.

It was as though he himself had arrived in person...

If Tobirama Senju had not been absolutely certain that he himself was still a virgin, he would practically have suspected that he had once had some romantic affair with an Uchiha girl!

From Target of Confrontation Tobirama Senju: You have obtained Kunai Throwing Technique (Tobirama Senju Version)!

The sound of coins bursting rang out in Seisui's mind.

Meanwhile, Shisui recalled the knowledge he had learned from the Ninja Academy and clan classes, and his eyes suddenly widened!

Tobirama Senju had studied the Uchiha Clan thoroughly.

Likewise, the Uchiha Clan had stripped Tobirama Senju bare of every last secret.

"An A-rank Genjutsu, the Bringer-of-Darkness Technique..."

In the darkness, Shisui muttered, "Advanced Water-attribute Chakra nature transformation, an A-rank Genjutsu, simplified hand seals... Brother, just how much strength have you been hiding?"

"This is already strength beyond that of an ordinary Jonin, isn't it...?"

Remembering how he had claimed that he would go all out, Shisui suddenly felt intensely ashamed.

While he, a dazzling genius, was still striving to become a Chunin, Seisui, who had always gone unnoticed, had already reached the level of a Jonin.

Boasting before his brother only to be taught a lesson left Shisui feeling terrible all over. It was even more embarrassing than when Seisui had caught him wetting the bed at the age of four.

The pride of a genius, the humiliation of losing face before his brother, and the unwillingness to accept their reversal in strength...

All sorts of complicated emotions stimulated Shisui.

In his left eye, the single Tomoe began spinning rapidly, and his Dojutsu suddenly surged!

His Sharingan, which had been one Tomoe on the left and two on the right, evolved into Double Tomoe at that moment!

Feeling the abundant Chakra and Dojutsu brought to him by the Double Tomoe, Shisui unconsciously burst into laughter. "Hahahahahaha! Brother, I'm still stronger!"

Shisui Uchiha has developed a strong desire to defeat the host. Binding him as the Target of Confrontation!

Hearing the system prompt and sensing the change in Shisui's Chakra, Seisui was somewhat astonished, and his understanding of the Uchiha Clan deepened further.

A breakthrough in the middle of battle...

Such an extremely unreasonable occurrence seemed perfectly reasonable when it came to the Uchiha.

And Shisui's uncharacteristic Uchiha Mad Laugh also proved just how enormous the Sharingan's influence on emotions was.

What surprised Seisui most was that Shisui's obsession with defeating him ran so deep that it had actually reached the point where the system bound him as Seisui's Target of Confrontation!

"In that case, little brother, I won't hold back..."

Seisui fully mobilized the Chakra within his body. Though the Senju Sage Body was incomplete, it still provided him with astonishing amounts of Chakra.

At the very least, more than Kakashi in his prime...

Amid Shisui's laughter, his bloodshot Sharingan broke through the darkness before him.

His excited smile still hung on his face, but the instant the darkness dispersed, Shisui's smile froze like wax...

The entire training ground had become a vast ocean.

Standing atop an enormous water dragon, Seisui looked down at him with a faint smile!
