Return

A gentle breeze brushed past Kangetsu's ears, and leaves tumbled before his eyes.

Yet, even while moving at high speed, Kangetsu's eyes remained cold.

His hand gripped his Black Blade tightly. The blade, now gleaming with a brilliant luster after being reforged, had regained its former sharpness.

At this moment, beyond the heavy killing intent radiating from his body, Kangetsu exuded a sharp aura, one imbued with a lofty, overbearing dominance.

This was the aura Kangetsu had cultivated over the past few days—the aura of one born to command.

Kangetsu focused chakra into the soles of his feet, moving with incredible speed, when a voice suddenly reached his ears: "Lord Kangetsu, we have arrived!"

As the words fell, the indifferent Kangetsu opened his icy eyes.

His gaze carried a hint of killing intent, as well as a touch of Kangetsu's signature dominance.

At this moment, Kangetsu nodded, thinking to himself, The Uchiha clan has arrived. It is time to go home.

With that thought, he accelerated, moving at lightning speed until he stood directly before the gates of the Uchiha clan.

His scarlet three-tomoe Sharingan fixed upon the gatekeeper.

The elderly guard looked at Kangetsu and froze, muttering to himself, "Only six years old, and he has already awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan! Is he a genius or a monster?"

Before he could finish, he saw Kangetsu's gaze turn frigid, and heard him command in a cold, sharp voice: "Open the gate!"

The voice, cold enough to freeze a man's blood, made the stunned guard shiver.

He hurriedly stammered, "Opening it now, opening it now!"

Everyone in the Uchiha clan knew of Kangetsu's status by now. As the child of Uchiha Tajima and Uchiha Eiko, he was someone they could not afford to offend. After all, his parents were among the top ten in terms of strength within the Uchiha clan.

Kangetsu walked through the gates with cold, indifferent eyes. Aside from Jingxia, who acted as a liaison, the rest of his men had already returned.

Kangetsu's retinue now included members from four other clans. Among them were four from the Onmyo clan, whom Kangetsu had personally requested, and two from the Yamanaka clan, both skilled in medical ninjutsu. There were also four from the Akimichi clan, all of whom were experts in crafting Military Ration Pills.

More than fifty people followed Kangetsu as he marched toward the Uchiha clan's compound.

Kangetsu's icy glare silenced the guards who had intended to protest against allowing outsiders to enter. However, once Kangetsu had fully passed, they hurried off to report the situation to the Uchiha powerhouse in charge of security for the day.

But all of this was well within Kangetsu's expectations.

Kangetsu barked an order: "Watanabe, go and handle the processing for this mission! The rest of you, follow me."

With that, Watanabe headed toward the mission hall, while Kangetsu led the others toward his home.
