Arc 2Ye's Border Mission
Ye awakened and strengthened his Sharingan, dominated his classmates, and trained with Nohibi outside Konoha. After learning that Danzo had compromised Hatake Sakumo’s mission, Ye headed toward the border, where Sakumo was unknowingly walking into an Iwagakure ambush.
- Ye pranked Obito into awakening his One-Tomoe Sharingan, then gained a permanent Sharingan and other powerful rewards from the System.
- Ye defeated Kakashi in class, prompting Hiruzen to consider recruiting him and Danzo to order Root to remove him.
- Ye trained with Might Guy, Obito, and Asuma, while the class and Uchiha clan reacted to his growing strength.
- Ye's prank brush ruined Obito’s exam, and Ye later obtained an Uzumaki physique, a Two-Tomoe Sharingan, and other rewards.
- Ye impressed Hatake Sakumo with his swordsmanship, then used a Mind-Reading Card to learn Sakumo’s mission plans and suspect Danzo had compromised them.
- Ye convinced Nohibi to take him beyond Konoha, where he quickly mastered tree climbing, water walking, and the Great Fireball Jutsu.
- Ōnoki learned Sakumo’s route and prepared an ambush at Warehouse No. 7, while Ye and Nohibi traveled toward the border.
- Ye hesitated in his first battle but used the Substitution Technique, fake Explosive Tags, and a Fireball to kill two wandering Kumogakure spies before he and Nohibi hurried to the northeastern defensive line.
