Outside Konoha, Sen and Yan were walking on the way to Land of Waves.
"Sorry, the village regulations prohibit you from leaving the village alone to perform tasks. I can only ask you to accompany me." Sen looked at Yan, who was a little thin due to busy work, "Fugaku Didn't embarrass you?"
"I just came out to relax and take care of the pension accounts, which is much more complicated than fighting." Yan walked side by side with Sen and joked,
"Besides, Fugaku seems to be quite willing to let me out, and doesn't make things difficult at all."
There was a hint of curiosity in his eyes. "However, this mission is just to go to the east to clean up two rebel ninjas. For you, it's probably just like traveling, right?"
To be honest, Sen, your strength has improved tremendously in the past two years. That day at the Shimura station, I seemed to have seen you using Lava Release..."
The Three Tomoe in Sen's eyes slowly rotated, condensing into a strange and gorgeous Mangekyo pattern.
"Because, I turned on Mangekyō Sharingan."
His voice was low and calm, "I can copy the Kekkei Genkai I've seen."
Yan is one of the people Sen trusts most now, so he chose to tell him frankly.
This will not only not weaken the prestige, but also make each other have a better understanding.
The next moment, a majestic and vast Dojutsu Power filled the air, as if even the sky was pressed a little lower by this force.
Yan immediately mobilized his Three Tomoe Sharingan to resist with all his strength, but he felt like a small boat that would be dragged into the abyss at any time by this boundless power.
It wasn't until Sen took back Mangekyo that the suffocating sense of oppression suddenly dissipated.
Yan gasped, cold sweat sliding down his face. At that moment, he seemed to be on the verge of death.
"Huh... is this... the legendary power?" He whispered with lingering fear, and after a moment he asked cautiously, "Sen, how on earth... you turned it on?"
Seeing that Sen was silent, Yan immediately realized that he had made a mistake and quickly said, "I'm sorry, this is your secret, I shouldn't ask more questions."
Sen shook his head and signaled to continue moving forward. After walking for a while, he slowly spoke, "You drove Three Tomoe, you should have noticed it--
The evolution of Sharingan requires strong emotional stimulation as the key."
Yan's breathing quickened. "Does that... does it mean that Mangekyo can be turned on only... by witnessing the death of the person closest to you?"
"No."
Sen shook his head, denying this cruel conclusion spread in the family.
"I don't think so. What you are talking about is one of the methods, which is one of the core secrets of the family. You can indeed get Mangekyō Sharingan when you see your loved one die.
But I think that all violent emotions should be able to inspire Mangekyō Sharingan, but only for Shinobi World.
It's just that in this land of Shinobi World, hate breeds more easily than love."
Yan was slightly shocked. "But my Sharingan... did awaken when his teammates sacrificed themselves."
Sen asked back, "If you had a choice, you would be willing to trade these eyes for their lives, right?"
"..." Yan fell silent.
"Everything I said is just speculation." Sen continued, "To be honest, I would rather our people never have to open these cursed eyes. In order to prevent the tragedy from happening again, I plan to... unify the world."
"As long as I live one day, I will try my best to end all wars."
Yan's steps slowed down by half a beat, and a turmoil arose in his heart.
He finally understood why Elder Setsuna valued Sen so much.
The weight of this ideal is far beyond what most people can bear.
But behind Sen and Mangekyō Sharingan, what exactly was lost?
"Hurry up, we have to go rob later." Sen suddenly urged, his style of painting suddenly changed.
"Ah?"
Yan was completely stunned, and his brain could not keep up with the jumping rhythm for a while.
"Ideals are not just words." Sen explained matter-of-factly, "Isn't the pension still far short of that? We are now going to raise some "revolutionary capital."
Yan caught up with him and couldn't laugh or cry, "No, aren't we going to deal with the rebel ninja? Why do we still want to be rebel ninjas? If the village knows that we are robbing along the road, they will be hunted by the whole world!"
"Don't worry," Sen said in a calm tone, "I will kill you and silence you after the robbery."
No, is that what I meant?
Seeing Yan's confused expression, Sen added, "Don't worry, the Land of Waves we went to has a black-hearted businessman named Gato who sells contraband and has killed many people. To rob him of his money is to do justice to God."
If you really feel sorry for yourself, you can leave half of it to the local residents."
Upon hearing this, Yan walked forward quickly and stretched out his hand:
"What are you talking about? I hate drug trafficking the most. The money from drug trafficking is our start-up capital. Why leave it to Land of Waves? Solving their cancer is already helping them to the maximum extent. The money should be left to us."
Sen:"..."
Good guy, you are also a "I want it all" party, right?
After the target was agreed upon, Sen briefly described the target's appearance. "The man's name is Gato. He is not tall. He wears suits and sunglasses all year round. He has a mustache. He does bad things. He must have many ninja bodyguards around him."
Yan nodded, and the two of them stopped delaying, quickened their pace, and ran towards Land of Waves.
At the same time, Konoha, Uchiha Sōgaku mansion.
The candlelight flickered in the room, and Cang Yue dismissed all his followers, leaving only Fugaku alone. He solemnly warned in a tone that seemed to be explaining the aftermath:
"I made a deal with Shimura Danzō. If I am gone, he will secretly support you to become Clan Leader."
"Father, how could you say such a thing? You are obviously still very young, how could you--"
"Listen to me!" Uchiha Sōgaku interrupted him, "It only took Sen a few days to establish such a high prestige in Guard Unit. This person cannot stay for a moment longer!"
If his ideas weren't too radical or even fallacious, I would be a little moved."
Uchiha Sōgaku stared at his son's eyes that were not firm enough, and said in a heavy tone, "Cheer up, Fugaku! Every word I say next is the top secret of our clan, you must remember it by heart!"
"First, the key to unlocking Mangekyō Sharingan is the death of a close relative, whether witnessed or... caused by one's own hands! You are already Three Tomoe, so you must have guessed it."
Fugaku looked heavy and nodded silently.
"Second, we, Uchiha, also have a humanoid weapon. I spent a huge price to get its intelligence and control from that old fox Danzo.
The "experimental subject" controlled by us controls Illusion Technique, which is more advanced than Tsukuyomi. Using it, you can... forcefully open Mangekyō Sharingan!"
"No!" Fugaku stood up suddenly, his face ashen, "Forcing it open with Illusion Technique will definitely severely damage the brain, and even cause death in severe cases! Father, you can't take this risk!"
Cang Yue stared at him calmly and asked, "Then do you have any other options? Sen's power is growing at a terrifying speed, and what about you?"
Fugaku clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turned white, and his voice was low. "There must be another way..."
Cang Yue shook his head slowly, but his expression was surprisingly calm. "Don't worry. I have been a ninja for nearly sixty years, and I am satisfied to be able to witness your growth with my own eyes.
What's more, the success rate this time is over 90%, and the worst result is just losing ten years of life. It's worth using my ten years of life in exchange for a stable future for me Uchiha Clan."
He stretched out his hand and patted Fugaku's shoulder gently, his eyes complex and loving. "From now on, all family affairs, big and small, will be decided by you.
While Sen is out on a mission, I will turn on my Mangekyo, and then... bring back his eyes."
After the words fell, Cang Yue's expression was intertwined between pain and expectation.
Fugaku took a deep breath, lowered his head solemnly, and said in a hoarse voice, "Yes, Father. I... will never let you down."
