Chapter 42: Sharingan and Talent of the Immortal Clan

"Cough...!"

"Cough...!"

The severe trauma to her internal organs left Uchiha Sarina unable to stop coughing.

"Hana..., you don't really have many friends, do you!"

"I'll just consider myself your best friend."

A lingering light shone in Uchiha Sarina's eyes as she smiled and stroked Uchiha Hana's cheek.

"Mm."

"You are my irreplaceable friend, Sarina!"

Kneeling on the ground, Uchiha Hana felt heartbroken. She sniffled, wiped her tears with her sleeve, and forced a smile in response.

"Hana, if in the future..."

"You lose your way in the darkness..."

"You must follow the guidance of your heart, toward the direction of light..."

"Protect everyone together with Lord Shin, and then save... this twisted world..."

"Hana, you really are a lucky one..."

"Sarina!"

"Ah... ah...!"

After struggling to finish her last words, Uchiha Sarina collapsed directly into Uchiha Hana's arms, her breath of life completely extinguished.

Thinking of the beautiful memories she shared with Sarina, Uchiha Hana was overcome with grief!

"Sarina..., rest assured!"

"I will definitely follow Lord Shin and save this twisted world!"

"I swear it!"

A look of determination appeared in Uchiha Hana's eyes as she slowly laid Sarina down and finally covered her gently with a white cloth.

"One-Tomoe Sharingan!"

"Poor thing!"

Uchiha Goichi, who had been guarding Uchiha Shin and Uchiha Hana, saw that because of Sarina's death, this girl named Uchiha Hana had actually awakened a One-Tomoe Sharingan.

Most importantly, this girl was only six years old this year.

It seemed she would be an extraordinary individual in the future.

While stunned, Uchiha Goichi could not help but look at the six-year-old Uchiha Hana with complex eyes, a gaze filled with a hint of sympathy.

It is well known that members of the Uchiha Clan are born with the Sharingan.

However, this innate Sharingan requires an "awakening" process to truly unlock its power.

Awakening usually occurs when the possessor experiences intense stimulation...

Typically, this involves a life-or-death battle.

Or the death of a close friend or family member right before their eyes.

For example, in the original Naruto, when Team 7 was in the Land of Waves, during Sasuke's battle with Haku.

Or, in the original Naruto, when Itachi's teammates, Shinji and Ma, were killed by Obito right in front of him while covering Itachi's retreat.

Similarly, the evolution and upgrading of the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan require similar conditions.

For instance, in the original Naruto, during the Sasuke Retrieval Mission, in the duel between Sasuke and Naruto at the Valley of the End...

Sasuke's Sharingan upgraded directly from two tomoe to three tomoe.

In short, once the Sharingan is awakened or successfully evolved, it can be used indefinitely thereafter.

Of course, the Sharingan can also be obtained through eye transplantation, which makes it possible for non-Uchiha to possess the Sharingan.

Take Kakashi from the original Naruto, for example; his Sharingan was transplanted to him by his teammate Obito before his death.

However, due to differences in physical constitution, non-Uchiha individuals are different.

They consume more chakra when using the Sharingan, and it places a burden on their bodies, so they cannot use it excessively.

For instance, Kakashi keeps Obito's Sharingan covered with his headband year-round to force it to stay closed.

Danzo also used bandages to cover the Sharingan he seized from Shisui Uchiha and Kagami Uchiha.

One reason was to hide the fact that he had obtained the Sharingan, and the other was to prevent the transplanted eyes from consuming too much chakra once activated.

However, members of the Uchiha Clan are not subject to these restrictions.

Although using the Sharingan consumes chakra, the amount is so small that it has almost no impact.

Take Itachi, Madara, and Obito, for example; their Sharingan are almost always in an activated state.

As for the ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan, it is a high-level mode of the standard Sharingan.

The appearance of the Sharingan in this state differs from that of a normal Sharingan.

A standard Sharingan features three separate tomoe, whereas the three tomoe of an ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan are connected, resembling a boomerang.

An ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan can take on various forms...

Kakashi's ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan is different from that of Uchiha Itachi.

Likewise, Uchiha Itachi's ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan is different from those of Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Sasuke.

The Mangekyō Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan is also known as the Eye of Heart's Reflection.

Take Uchiha Obito, for example...

Because Uchiha Obito witnessed with his own eyes as Nohara Rin was pierced through the chest and killed by Kakashi's Chidori.

He felt as though the entire world had become twisted.

Consequently, the pattern of his Kamui Mangekyō Sharingan became a symbol that appeared distorted.

The ability of the Kamui Mangekyō Sharingan is also a vortex that twists out of thin air.

Because of Nohara Rin's death, he felt he had lost everything and desperately wanted to escape this world, which is why his Mangekyō Sharingan birthed the ability of intangibility.

Having lost Nohara Rin, he felt he had lost the entire world.

Therefore, he wanted to destroy this reality and create another world where Rin existed, and thus his Mangekyō Sharingan birthed the ability to tear through space.

Take Uchiha Itachi, for instance...

The abilities of Uchiha Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan are Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi.

Amaterasu is a black flame that never extinguishes, signifying that Itachi carried the Will of Fire, bearing the darkness of the village as he moved forward, never harboring regrets.

Just as the reanimated Uchiha Itachi said during the Fourth Shinobi World War: No matter how dark the village becomes, I am still Konoha's Uchiha Itachi.

On the eve of the clan's annihilation, Itachi had also been trying to buy time for the Uchiha Clan...

However, when the final moment of the massacre arrived, after Uchiha Itachi had killed his own parents with his own hands.

He wished so desperately that he had more time to resolve the issues between his clan and the village.

Thus, the second ability of Uchiha Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan became Tsukuyomi, which allows for the free manipulation of time.

As for the abilities possessed by the ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan awakened by Uchiha Sasuke, Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Izuna, and Shisui Uchiha...

They are all directly related to what they desired most in their hearts at the moment their Mangekyō Sharingan awakened.

"Alright, Hana..."

"The battle is over!"

"There will be clan ninjas responsible for taking Sarina's body back to be buried in the Uchiha Clan cemetery."

"Let's go!"

Uchiha Shin patted Uchiha Hana on the shoulder, comforting her as she had awakened a one-tomoe Sharingan due to the death of her close friend.

He had not expected that a guy like Sarina would have such a glorious moment.

Ever since Uchiha Shin had seen through Uchiha Sarina's true nature, he had maintained a stance of keeping his distance.

He had originally thought that this person named Uchiha Sarina would just end up like that—dying silently and being forgotten by everyone.

Yet, he never expected that this guy would actually take a blade for Uchiha Hana?

Could it be that a person's character is not actually immutable?

Just like what was said on the internet in his past life, is it truly one thought for hell and one thought for heaven?

Uchiha Shin shook his head slightly; he understood some things, yet others remained unclear.

By the way, he had just heard from the clan's ninja reports that Master Yamashita of the Fire Temple, along with all the warrior monks who participated in the battle, had been captured.

Uchiha Shin remembered that in the original Naruto, the Fire Temple possessed a secret technique that was very close to Sage Mode.

"Talent of the Immortal Clan!"

Whether it was the "Welcoming Approach: Thousand-Armed Murder," the "Furious Vajra," or the "Sealing Iron Wall."

Uchiha Shin wanted to develop his own Sage Mode, but he had never had any leads.

The Sage Modes of the three great holy lands—Mount Myōboku, Shikkotsu Forest, and Ryūchi Cave—were mature, but Uchiha Shin feared being trapped by the three great sages.

As the saying goes, if you teach the apprentice, the master starves.

Having survived since the age of myth, the three great sages were not naive; how could they possibly pass on the true, bottom-of-the-box secret techniques of their holy lands, the true Sage Mode?

Uchiha Shin believed that these three old schemers dared to pass on such Sage Modes only because there were definitely hidden agendas behind them that he was unaware of.

Therefore, as long as he could obtain the cultivation method for the Talent of the Immortal Clan from Master Yamashita of the Fire Temple and the captured warrior monks.

And then use that to broaden his thinking and thoroughly understand what Sage Mode actually is.

Then Uchiha Shin believed that one day in the future, he would absolutely be able to create a unique Sage Mode belonging to the Uchiha Clan.
