"Akaseki, go find Fugaku afterward. He awakened his eyes two years before you, and his chakra possesses both Fire and Lightning nature transformations. You are to copy all the strong one-tomoe ninjutsu, strong one-tomoe genjutsu, and one-tomoe taijutsu from him. Strive to complete this within a month."

"As for Earth Release... go find Yashiro later. He has the Earth Release chakra transformation, but he is not in the village right now. Your chakra is also too weak. Over this month, you will experience rapid growth, so during your training, do not refine chakra on your own. Focus on chakra control instead. If you don't understand anything, you can ask Fugaku for guidance."

If one lacks the talent for the corresponding nature transformation, forcing oneself to learn or copy techniques is of little significance.

Upon hearing the clan leader tell him to find Fugaku, Akaseki was immediately delighted—is he grooming me as a confidant for the future clan heir?

"Yes!" After acknowledging the order, Akaseki bowed and took his leave.

After Akaseki left, Kensho sighed, "Sigh, the Enhancement Eye is indeed the rarest. Among the nearly one hundred clansmen who have awakened their eyes, fewer than ten possess the Enhancement Eye."

Hearing this, Ranyu pulled a straight face and said, "It doesn't necessarily mean the Enhancement Eye is stronger; it's just that the powerful ancestor Madara Uchiha happened to have the Enhancement Eye."

At the tomoe stage, the differences between the three types of Sharingan are minimal, and all are quite comprehensive.

For instance, at the one-tomoe stage, the "Ninjutsu Eye" can copy some of the simpler B-rank ninjutsu if the opponent moves slowly and intentionally demonstrates them, while the "Non-Ninjutsu Eye" is limited to the most difficult C-rank ninjutsu at the one-tomoe stage...

In a combat scenario, if one needs to directly copy a ninjutsu cast by an enemy, the performance of both is about the same; they can only copy a portion of C-rank ninjutsu!

However...

As the clan leader and elder of the Uchiha, they knew that above the tomoe Sharingan, the "Mangekyo Sharingan" existed.

Because the conditions for awakening are overly dependent on emotions and feelings, this information is generally not disclosed to ordinary clansmen; only those with three-tomoe Sharingan are aware of it.

At the same time, because the "Mangekyo Sharingan" carries severe side effects, even those who have awakened it often keep it hidden from outsiders—just like now, the high-level officials of Konoha only confirm Kagami Uchiha as a Mangekyo Sharingan user. As for Kensho Uchiha and Ranyu Uchiha... they are merely suspected, and they do not intentionally reveal it.

Although the Mangekyo Sharingan's power exceeds the limits of a jonin when activated, using it—regardless of how much effect is achieved—causes irreversible damage to the eyes, so it cannot be used as a conventional tactic.

At the "Mangekyo" stage, the differences between Sharingan become very apparent. Not only does every pair of Mangekyo have different patterns, but they also possess unique "techniques." Furthermore, the fields in which the Mangekyo Sharingan excels are greatly enhanced, creating a significant gap compared to other aspects.

Throughout history, over ninety percent of the Mangekyo Sharingan recorded in the Uchiha clan have been Curved Tomoe, which are either Genjutsu Eyes or Ninjutsu Eyes. Only a handful have been Straight Tomoe, symbolizing the Enhancement Eye. The most recent one was the "strongest Uchiha in history"—Madara Uchiha!

Although the Uchiha clan nominally criticizes this troublesome ancestor, yet...

Whenever the Uchiha clan feels unbalanced regarding their status, they always miss Madara Uchiha.

Consequently, in the hearts of those who know about the Mangekyo, it is inevitable that they place the "Straight Tomoe" and "Enhancement-type Sharingan" in a unique position.

"It's a pity. One Genjutsu Eye and one Ninjutsu Eye may seem comprehensive, but judging from historical examples, even if such eyes awaken the Mangekyo, the abilities of the two eyes are likely mismatched, awakening two unrelated powers." Kensho sighed—only a Mangekyo that coordinates well can be considered a true pair!

Ranyu shook his head upon hearing this: "The Mangekyo is not so easily awakened... especially now, sigh."

If the Mangekyo is not awakened, there is no real distinction between Sharingan. If Akaseki's talent can allow him to grow to the three-tomoe stage, one should be thankful; talking about the strength of the Mangekyo stage is meaningless.

Akaseki, of course, knew nothing about the "Mangekyo." After leaving the clan leader's residence, he arrived at the clan's training ground and found Fugaku.

Fugaku was practicing with kunai, and Kotomi was watching from the side.

Noticing Akaseki approaching, Fugaku stopped throwing his kunai and looked toward him.

"Young Master Fugaku, the clan leader sent me to learn ninjutsu from you..." Seeing Fugaku look over, Akaseki immediately began to speak with a beaming smile.

"Hmm, I know. Father told me... and don't call me Young Master Fugaku." Fugaku smiled slightly.

"Then... Future Clan Heir Fugaku?" Akaseki decisively changed his form of address.

Fugaku: ...

"Just call me by my name," Fugaku said helplessly.

"Brother Fugaku, then I'll be troubling you!" Akaseki took the opportunity to get closer with a familiar title.

Kotomi, standing to the side, couldn't help but curl her lip at this scene—it was clear that the "impact" of Akaseki's performance at the graduation ceremony had not yet faded...

Although Fugaku was only one year older than Akaseki, he appeared much more mature.

When teaching Akaseki, he didn't put on the airs of a teacher, but he naturally began to lecture him earnestly.

"Your chakra is too low right now. Although you have a Ninjutsu Eye, you can only copy two or three B-rank ninjutsu a day, and they are difficult to use. Let's start with C-rank ninjutsu first. Once your chakra volume increases, we will start copying B-rank ninjutsu."

"Although the Sharingan can bring chakra to a certain level upon awakening and each subsequent evolution, possessing a certain amount of chakra can also promote awakening. From the Warring States period to the present, most ordinary clansmen have been unable to awaken the Sharingan in their entire lives, but if one can independently train to the level of a jonin, they will basically awaken them."

"In the clan's records, there are 21 Fire Release ninjutsu worth copying at the one-tomoe Ninjutsu Eye stage, including 4 D-rank, 3 B-rank, and the rest are C-rank. There are 15 valuable Lightning Release ninjutsu, including 3 D-rank, 1 B-rank, and the rest are C-rank. As for Earth Release... I will take you to find Yashiro in a few days."

"The one-tomoe Genjutsu Eye can copy 6 types of genjutsu: two offensive, two disruptive, and two defensive. They are all C-rank, but with the enhancement of the Sharingan's ocular power, the effect is no less than B-rank."

"Like me, you don't have an Enhancement Eye. Therefore, at the one-tomoe stage, you can learn the first 31 movements recorded in the Uchiha Style Taijutsu, as well as the first half of the techniques for Shurikenjutsu Manipulation."

"We must complete the learning of all these within a month. Father should have told you that you must focus on chakra control training this month."

"Whether it's ninjutsu, genjutsu, or taijutsu... simply copying them only means you can use them. We must learn for ourselves when to use them and how to exert greater effects. You must never become lazy in your training just because the Sharingan exists!"
