Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan

Three days later.

It would be Sasuke's tenth birthday, and the entire Uchiha clan was overjoyed.

Because Sasuke had displayed extraordinary talent, the entire Uchiha clan regarded him as the next Madara Uchiha.

But Sasuke knew that even without cheats, he would one day surpass Madara Uchiha.

Sasuke's thoughts drifted toward the future. He was Indra's reincarnation, while Naruto was Asura's reincarnation.

If Naruto was a stats monster, then he was a mechanics monster.

As long as he played the mechanics well, a stats monster would never beat a mechanics monster. The Rinnegan's six-tomoe Amenotejikara alone made Sasuke crave it immensely.

The mechanics of Amenotejikara were simply too powerful. It could be said to be an ability even stronger than Kamui.

Sasuke thought that if he awakened the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan three days later, then he would be able to awaken the Rinnegan at fifteen and obtain Amenotejikara.

However, he wondered what ocular techniques he would gain after awakening the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan!

Sasuke opened his status panel.

[Host: Sasuke Uchiha.]

[Age: 9.]

[Special Physique: Indra's reincarnation, chakra affinity, Two-Tails jinchūriki.]

[Bloodline Limit: Sharingan (Mangekyō).]

[Ocular Techniques: Amaterasu, Kagutsuchi.]

[Chakra Natures: Fire, Lightning.]

Time flew by, and today was Sasuke's tenth birthday.

Sasuke watched the clock on the wall tick toward twelve, second by second!

Sasuke immediately felt a warm current surge into his eyes. Then, the Mangekyō Sharingan appeared in his eyes, before transforming once more. Three additional tomoe-shaped patterns appeared within each eye.

[Ding, congratulations to the host on turning ten and awakening the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.]

[Ding, congratulations to the host on obtaining the ocular technique: Amenotokotachi.]

[Amenotokotachi (Left Eye): Centered on the host, time within a five-meter radius slows to one-third of its normal speed (the host is unaffected)!]

[Ding, congratulations to the host on obtaining the ocular technique: Blood Moon.]

[Blood Moon (Right Eye): Manipulate blood.]

Listening to the electronic voice in his mind, Sasuke was incredibly excited.

The new ocular technique he had gained in his left eye was the same as his father's: time within a five-meter radius slowed to one-third of its normal speed.

But his father's radius was three meters, while his was five.

The second ocular technique was Blood Moon.

Sasuke had never even heard of an ocular technique called Blood Moon in the original story. Could this be an ocular technique unique to him?!

Just four short words: manipulate blood.

It looked ordinary, but Sasuke knew the true value behind those words. It could not only control his own blood, but other people's blood as well!

Sasuke stretched out a hand, and drops of blood seeped from the pores of his right hand. The blood expanded in the air before solidifying, forming a crimson longsword in Sasuke's hand!

With a thought from Sasuke, the blood sword turned into a stream of blood and flowed across the ground.

Sasuke still did not have a genjutsu-type ocular technique.

But it did not matter. I can dominate the ninja world without genjutsu!

Sasuke opened his host status panel.

[Host: Sasuke Uchiha.]

[Age: 10.]

[Special Physique: Indra's reincarnation, chakra affinity, Two-Tails jinchūriki.]

[Bloodline Limit: Sharingan (Eternal Mangekyō), Blood Release.]

[Ocular Techniques: Amaterasu, Kagutsuchi, Blood Moon, Amenotokotachi.]

[Chakra Natures: Lightning, Fire, Water.]

Sasuke stared at his chakra natures in disbelief.

He had gained Water-nature chakra?

Why? Was it because of Blood Release?

Was Blood Release a mutation of Water Release?

But it did not matter. It would be even better if he possessed chakra of every nature!

After obtaining the Eternal Mangekyō, the next step was...

Sage Mode!

Sasuke even felt that his current combat power had already surpassed Obito's, perhaps by far.

After all, no matter how versatile Obito's Kamui was, Obito only had one Mangekyō.

While he possessed two Eternal Mangekyō!

Sasuke found Zabuza. Zabuza was sprawled out on the bed, asleep. He had always slept under bridges before, and had never lived such a comfortable life.

He never had to worry about food or drink, and earned five hundred thousand ryō every month just by lying around.

Haku was also by his side to serve him.

And he no longer had to worry about being hunted by Kirigakure shinobi...

Sasuke said to Zabuza, "Get up. We have work."

Zabuza twisted his neck, producing a series of cracking sounds, and asked, "What work?"

Sasuke said, "Kill the Hokage advisor, Homura Mitokado."

A cold glint flashed through Sasuke's eyes.

If I remembered correctly, Homura Mitokado caused me trouble before. I hold grudges very well!

Now that Sasuke possessed the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, his strength had undergone a qualitative leap. Naturally, he could begin the next stage of his plan.

Gradually devour Konoha's upper ranks and gain... more power!

Zabuza nodded and hoisted the Executioner's Blade over his shoulder, preparing to leave.

Sasuke said, "Wait. Take off your Uchiha clan clothes. They have the clan crest on them."

After taking off his clothes, Zabuza prepared to leave. As he stepped out of the Uchiha clan compound, a red moon hung high in the sky.

Zabuza sighed, pulled up his bandages to cover his mouth, and prepared to depart.

The red moon in the sky seemed to foretell that someone would die tonight.

Elsewhere.

Hokage advisor Homura Mitokado tossed and turned, unable to sleep. He did not know what was wrong with him today.

He simply could not fall asleep.

Homura Mitokado had originally been Tobirama Senju's disciple, but he was not skilled in battle, so he became a Hokage advisor.

Just then.

With a creak, a gust of wind blew open the window.

Homura Mitokado shuddered all over, then fumbled for his glasses and prepared to close the window.

"Fog..."

Homura Mitokado muttered to himself, but gradually, he realized something was wrong!

This fog!

It was extraordinarily dense!

Homura Mitokado immediately turned around, but a red flash flickered through the mist, and his head flew high into the air.

After someone was beheaded, their head still retained consciousness.

Homura Mitokado watched his body grow farther and farther away, thinking, Am I really going to die like this?

Then Homura Mitokado completely lost consciousness.

Zabuza jumped out through the window. Just then.

A shuriken flew toward Zabuza!

Zabuza sensed the killing intent and blocked it with the Executioner's Blade.

Zabuza looked over.

It was Kakashi!

Seeing the bloodstains on the Executioner's Blade, Kakashi knew Homura Mitokado was dead.

Homura Mitokado was one of Konoha's upper ranks!

Kakashi was furious. "Zabuza! Why are you in Konoha!?"
