"Ah?"
Kaguya Takeori stared at Uchiha Makoto in disbelief, as if doubting her own hearing.
Did he just say... three pairs?
"Three Mangekyō Sharingan? Are you sure?"
Kaguya Takeori tried her best to keep her voice under control, but it still trembled uncontrollably.
In her memory, there were only two Mangekyō Sharingan: one belonged to Uchiha Makoto, and the other to Madara Uchiha!
The former had merely made a slight move, yet he had crippled Kirigakure and beaten the Third Mizukage into a coma that he had yet to wake from.

"When were you planning to launch the surprise attack on Konoha?"
Kaguya Takeori froze. Uchiha Makoto had activated his Sharingan and was gazing in the direction of... the Konoha encampment!
Could it be...
"Around ten o'clock!"
Kaguya Takeori answered quickly, her expression shifting uncertainly. Please don't tell me I've been stabbed in the back!
"Tut, tut, tut!"
Uchiha Makoto shook his head, the clicking of his tongue dripping with mockery.
Was this what one should expect from Kirigakure, a
