Chapter Summaries

Naruto learned that Isobu had secretly turned Sasuke’s romantic troubles into a palace-drama series, while Sasuke asked when Naruto planned to move against Konoha. Naruto explained that he was preparing for a takeover that would minimize harm, then received news of a major breakthrough in Sharingan research.

• Isobu showed Naruto a serialized drama made from Shadow Clones’ recordings of Sasuke’s conflicts with the girls pursuing him.
• Sasuke told Naruto that he had fled to the seaside to escape the ongoing disputes, while Naruto withheld his advice and asked Isobu to make another season.
• Sasuke asked whether Naruto planned to stop lying low and attack Konoha, and Naruto said he was preparing military strength and capable administrators before acting.
• Naruto explained that his movie was meant to earn money and signal Konoha’s people to choose whether to side with him or Sarutobi Hiruzen.
• Naruto received a message that research on the Sharingan had made a major breakthrough.

Naruto revealed a breakthrough in synthesizing special Yin Release Chakra to steadily advance Sharingan Pupil Power, then brought Sasuke to the laboratory to witness a living-body experiment on Shin. The experiment progressed smoothly, with Shin's transplanted Three Tomoe Sharingan rapidly nearing the Mangekyo threshold.

• Naruto explained that his Sharingan research focused on a popularizable Gene Serum and a method for advancing the Sharingan, and said the latter had achieved a major breakthrough.
• Naruto used the Flying Thunder God Technique to take Sasuke to the Biological Laboratory beneath the Valley of the End, where Hinata's Shadow Clone, Kimimaro, Shin, and Karin were present.
• Naruto explained that his team had found a way to synthesize special Yin Release Chakra that could steadily increase Sharingan Pupil Power, and introduced Shin's living-body experiment.
• Naruto replaced Shin's eyes with Three Tomoe Sharingan and injected the special chakra into them while Sasuke watched with his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.
• Shin reported feeling comfortable and sensing his Pupil Power grow, while the transplanted Sharingan rapidly approached the Mangekyo threshold without slowing.

Shin awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan after Naruto rapidly strengthened his eyes with special Yin Release Chakra, gaining abilities to manipulate metal weapons and teleport between fixed coordinates. Naruto stopped the infusion when Shin's eyes became strained and his emotions turned volatile, leaving them to endure an estimated ten years of recovery.

• Shin naturally awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan within three hours and reported his new ocular techniques to Naruto.
• Sasuke judged that Shin gained no major physical or chakra boost, but avoided the emotional obsession that had accompanied Sasuke's own awakening.
• Naruto continued infusing Yin Release Chakra for nearly a day, raising Shin's Pupil Power close to the Eternal Mangekyo level.
• Shin reported eye pain, pressure on his brain, irritability, and destructive urges, so Naruto stopped the infusion.
• Shin's symptoms eased as his Pupil Power and Hashirama chakra nourished his eyes, but he estimated that the swelling would take at least ten years to resolve.

Naruto and Sasuke investigated Shin’s newly awakened Mangekyo Sharingan and found that its rapid growth strained his body and mind. Naruto compared the shortcut awakening method with gradual cultivation, then proposed a way to combine both methods to develop a ninja’s potential.

• Naruto examined Shin and wondered whether his swollen, painful eyes reflected the limits of his body and mind.
• Sasuke explained that Sharingan blindness came from Pupil Power recovering too slowly, and said Shin’s sudden increase in strength was overloading him.
• Sasuke taught Shin how to use Susanoo, and Naruto brought everyone to the Valley of the End to test it.
• Shin formed a silver-white complete-body Susanoo, but it consumed his Pupil Power and chakra so quickly that it lasted only ten seconds.
• Naruto concluded that gradual awakening eased strain on the eyes, while emotional awakening brought a mental transformation but risked greater strain and obsession.
• Naruto proposed cultivating the Sharingan with Yin Release Chakra before completing its transformation through an independent mental change.

Naruto and Sasuke used the Dragon Vein to rapidly advance their eye powers, with Sasuke agreeing to study social economic planning in exchange for a method to awaken the Rinnegan. After three days of absorbing and refining chakra, Naruto awakened the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.

• Naruto spent three days replenishing the foundation of his eyes, after which his Pupil Power began increasing rapidly.
• Naruto's Pupil Power reached the necessary level, and he awakened the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.

Naruto and Sasuke completed their Sharingan transformations after absorbing much of the Dragon Vein’s energy. Eager to awaken the Rinnegan, Sasuke accepted Naruto’s warning and followed him into the Sealing Space to begin the process.

• Naruto awakened the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, gaining greater Pupil Power and stronger Mangekyo abilities.
