[Plunderable target detected: Mangekyō Sharingan (one pair)]
Looking at the Mangekyō Sharingan in his hands, Shisui tried his best to restrain his surging excitement.
After completely inheriting the "legacy" from Uchiha Madara, the latter had voluntarily severed his connection to the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, which had been sustaining his life. The legendary hero closed his eyes, bringing his long life to an end.
As for the Mangekyō Sharingan Madara had used, they were naturally inherited by Shisui.
Having gained experience once before, Shisui did not hesitate, preparing to completely "consume" this pair of Mangekyō Sharingan.
"Eye Technique: Yamata."
As Shisui activated the ocular technique in his left eye, the two Mangekyō Sharingan began to crack, and droplets of blood carrying Kekkei Genkai and ocular power began to detach from the eyeballs.
Simultaneously, the volume of this blood continued to condense, while excess impurities and impure bloodlines were purged.
Those purged bloodlines and ocular powers were the expected "losses" incurred during the execution of Yamata.
Under the slow rotation of the Mangekyō pattern in Shisui's left eye, the process of separating and re-condensing the bloodline appeared complex and lengthy.
During this process, the ocular power in his left eye was being consumed rapidly—at a rate several times faster than when he had plundered the Shikotsumyaku.
Before long, a distinct, stinging soreness radiated from Shisui's left eye.
Why is my ocular power being consumed so quickly? Could it be related to the strength of the bloodline being plundered? This was the only reason Shisui could think of at the moment.
The ocular power required for "Yamata" right now was simply too vast; it felt like maintaining a Susanoo in its third form with a single eye.
I must not go blind before I even succeed in plundering the bloodline.
At this moment, Shisui remembered that he still had two vials of the reagent developed by Orochimaru. He quickly took one out and drank the liquid inside in one gulp.
As that surge of vitality entered Shisui's body, it felt as if every cell was cheering. Chakra from all over his body, combined with this vitality, surged toward his left eye.
"Hoo... that's better." Like a parched desert receiving a spring of life, as the pain in his left eye vanished, a refreshing sensation rushed straight to Shisui's brain, making him gasp aloud.
It's a good thing I prepared in advance, otherwise, I would have only been able to save either my left eye or this pair of Mangekyō today. With a continuous supply of ocular power, the effect of "Yamata" was sustained.
By now, the pair of Mangekyō Sharingan had completely vanished, leaving behind only a single drop of blood the size of a fingertip.
Unlike the color of ordinary blood, this drop before Shisui seemed to possess infinite magic; the light around the blood was absorbed by it, as if forming a vacuum isolation zone around it.
He did not know if it was just his imagination, but Shisui actually saw a complex gaze within this drop of blood.
Is this the essence of the Mangekyō Sharingan...
At this moment, Shisui's entire body was filled with a craving for this drop of blood.
"Then come, and merge into one with me."
Under Shisui's control, the drop of blood decomposed once more into countless tiny particles, which flew into his left eye.
[Indra Bloodline development: 66%, 67%, 68%...]
"Ah... such a strange feeling." Unlike the previous fusion with Shikotsumyaku, this fusion with the Mangekyō Sharingan brought Shisui more than just an increase in ocular power; the feeling of his bloodline being completed even made Shisui feel as if his soul had become more whole.
In the end, the Indra Bloodline development stalled at 76%.
"I can feel it; the Indra bloodline within me has become much purer."
At this moment, Shisui had a premonition that his eyes were no longer far from becoming the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
Suddenly, Shisui felt two strange forces enter his left and right eyes, respectively.
The moment those forces entered his eyes, they took root, as if they had taken up residence within them.
"Wait, this feeling... it's just like Kotoamatsukami and Yamata..." Shisui could feel that he was gradually gaining control over this new power.
"Is this... a new ocular technique?" The moment his eyes adapted to the power, Shisui understood all the information regarding the new techniques, which left him ecstatic.
One must know that every Mangekyō ocular technique possesses unique and miraculous power.
It could even be said that there are no trash ocular techniques, only Uchiha who do not know how to use them.
Regardless of what the newly acquired techniques were, they would add two lethal trump cards to Shisui's arsenal.
The ability gained by Shisui's left eye was called Kōringon.
[Kōringon: As the ruler at the center of Takamagahara, Kōringon was born at the beginning of the formation of heaven and earth, possessing absolute control over the gods.] [Eye Technique: Kōringon, capable of suppressing an opponent's Kekkei Genkai or Kekkei Tōta, and can even influence Kekkei Mōra. The effect depends on the strength of the opponent's ability (limited-time weakening, not permanent).]
Judging by its effects, this was an ocular technique specifically targeting Kekkei Genkai users. Combined with the Yamata in his left eye—one to weaken, one to plunder—it would be no exaggeration to call it a "Kekkei Genkai Killer."
The ability gained by Shisui's right eye was called Kamimusubi, and its power was so broken and exaggerated that Shisui wondered if he had misread it.
[Kamimusubi: As the mother of the Izumo gods, she is the ancestor of the Izumo pantheon and bestowed the power of life upon them.] [Eye Technique: Kamimusubi, capable of enhancing the user's perception of their own bloodline, thereby promoting the awakening of their Kekkei Genkai and increasing their own bloodline development.]
In other words, Shisui could use this ocular technique to help his clansmen increase their Indra bloodline development and raise the probability of them awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan.
This ability and the "Kōringon" in his left eye—one to enhance, one to weaken—made for quite the pair.
However, this seemingly heaven-defying ability had a major limitation: the massive consumption of ocular power. Furthermore, after use, the right eye's Mangekyō would enter a cooldown period of approximately one year, a cooldown that did not overlap with that of "Kotoamatsukami."
Therefore, Shisui could not use the power of "Kamimusubi" at this moment.
Even so, Shisui was quite content.
The moment Eye Technique: Yamata was completed, the chakra within his eyes began to feed back into Shisui's body, carrying with it faint traces of chakra imbued with the aura of the Mangekyō. Shisui surmised that this was Yin Release chakra being emitted from his eyes, though it remained entirely beyond his control.
[Name: Shisui Uchiha] [Age: 8] [Bloodline: Indra Bloodline (76% developed) -- Mangekyō Sharingan (Susanoo Third Form), Shikotsumyaku (10% developed)] [Dōjutsu: Kotoamatsukami (cooldown), Yamata, Kōringon, Kamimusubi (cooldown)] [Chakra Level: SS (Super Kage level)] [Chakra Nature: Fire - Mastery (5%), Wind - Proficient (0%), Earth - Ordinary (10%), Lightning - Ordinary (0%)] [Skills: Phantom Body Flicker Technique, Multi Shadow Clone, Will of Root 2/3...] [Items: Divine Tool - Yata Mirror, Obito's Dark Heart (one-time use item)]
"Devouring" a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan brought Shisui not only an enhancement in bloodline and ocular power, but even his own chakra reserves had doubled.
This was one of the reasons why the Sharingan bloodline limit was ranked number one in the ninja world.
