The great elder stood up and slammed his cane on the ground.
His hands were shaking and his voice was obviously tight.
"Clan Leader!"
With this shout, the entire shrine fell silent.
The great elder looked at Ren, his chest rising and falling obviously much heavier than usual.
"I have something to say."
Ren looked at him.
"Say."
The great elder forcefully pushed forward things that had been pressing in his heart for many years.
"Uchiha is strong now, stronger than ever."
"You suppressed Kumogakure, Shisui, Fugaku, and Itachi also stood up. The Temple system has greatly increased the overall combat power of the family. When people outside mention Uchiha, they are no longer the vigilant and repulsive people in the past, but are truly fearful."
"But with this strength, there has been a hidden worry in the clan over the years that no one dares to speak out easily."
As he said this, his voice became deeper and deeper.
"Mangekyō Sharingan is incredibly powerful, but it has a fatal flaw."
"The more you use it, the heavier the burden will be on your eyes, and sooner or later you will go blind."
"The stronger the pupil technique like Susanoo is, the more severe the wear and tear will be. Let alone a full explosion, even if it is only opened a few times, the eyes will feel like they are holding on for dear life."
The expressions of many people in the shrine changed.
The young tribesmen felt chills in their hearts when they heard this, and several elders looked solemn.
Because what the Great Elder said is true.
Mangekyo is Uchiha's sharpest knife today, but this knife itself is also backlashing the person holding it.
The great elder gritted his teeth and continued.
"Uchiha is strong now because we have you, Shisui, Fugaku, and Weasel. The outside world covets Sharingan, and also covets your ability to control Tailed Beasts. However, due to the current momentum of the family, they dare not act rashly."
"But once one day, the eyes of several Mangekyo holders are damaged or even blind, the strongest edge of Uchiha will suddenly be blunted."
"At that time, Kumogakure, Iwagakure, Kirigakure, Sunagakure, and those lunatics who care about Kekkei Genkai and Secret Technique will all pounce on us."
"The family seems to be standing very high now, but in fact it is also standing at the forefront."
"I and several elders have been afraid of this matter these days."
After he said this, many tribesmen in the shrine felt their backs go cold.
Because this is not alarmist.
It's something that really could happen.
Uchiha is so dazzling now.
Dazzling enough to overwhelm Kumogakure, dazzling enough to make Konoha Leadership bow his head, dazzling enough that the whole Shinobi World started to stare at it.
Such Uchiha is certainly beautiful.
But similarly, as long as you show signs of weakness, you will be greeted by countless pairs of more cruel eyes.
Shisui spoke in a deep voice.
"Sir Clan Leader, if this set of Tiger-Leopard Thunderclap Body-Tempering Technique can really temper your eyes, how far can it do it?"
Fugaku also took a step forward, his voice was very steady, but everyone could hear the weight in it.
"Is it maintenance, or can it really solve the hidden dangers of Mangekyo?"
Even Itachi, who was always quiet, raised his head and looked at Ren.
Those young people at the back Uchiha were so angry that they didn't even dare to breathe.
This is no longer just a matter of whether the exercises are useful or not.
This is the most core and fatal shortcoming of Uchiha, and the question is whether it can be made up for.
Ren swept through everyone without showing off.
"Mangekyo's blindness, in the final analysis, is not a problem with the eye surgery itself."
"My eyes can't bear the load."
"The stronger the pupil power, the greater the consumption. Ordinary eyes cannot support it at all, and will naturally be damaged little by little, and eventually lead to blindness."
"Tiger-Leopard Thunderclap Body-Tempering Technique trains not just the fists, feet and muscles, but the overall organ strength."
"The eyes are also organs."
"When the eye's endurance is improved, the load caused by eye surgery is no longer an unsolvable injury, but a consumption that can be carried, buffered, and repaired."
As soon as these words came out, the great elder's breathing quickened.
"That is to say..."
Ren looked at him and gave everyone the answer they wanted to hear most.
"Continue to practice Tiger Leopard Thunderclap, and the strength of your eyes will become higher and higher. As long as you train your eye organs, the hidden danger of blindness caused by excessive use of Mangekyo will naturally be resolved."
"If there is damage originally, it can be repaired bit by bit through continuous tempering and warming."
A loud bang.
The whole Naka Shrine became completely noisy.
Several elders stood up on the spot, not even bothering to steady their crutches.
Many tribesmen at the rear turned red in the face and their chests heaved violently.
Shisui clenched his fists, unable to hold back his usual gentleness and stability.
Fugaku's whole body became lighter. The stone that had been weighing on his heart for many years was lifted away, and even his breathing became much smoother.
Itachi didn't speak, but he raised his head and looked at Ren with a completely different look.
Tekka slapped himself on the thigh, and his voice changed.
"This... doesn't this resolve Uchiha's biggest deadlock?"
Inabi nodded fiercely beside him, his face flushed with excitement.
"Forefathers of all generations have tried many methods, but no one has been able to truly solve Mangekyo's future troubles. Now Master Clan Leader has actually paved the road directly?"
The young tribesmen at the rear were even more excited and could not even stand.
"It can train your eyes!"
"Can repair Sharingan damage!"
"Then from now on, Mangekyo of the family will no longer trade their lives for strength?"
"If the whole clan practiced this technique, how strong would Uchiha be?"
"Don't talk about Konoha, who can stop us in Shinobi World?"
The great elder looked at Ren and his voice became hoarse.
"Clan Leader... This is really God's blessing Uchiha."
"It's not God's blessing."
Ren opened his mouth and suppressed these words directly.
"It was Uchiha who carved the way out by himself."
"Without Battle of Kumogakure, without the family's current luck and resources, I might not be able to bring this road back."
After saying these words, many people in the shrine were shocked, and then they became even more excited.
Yes.
It didn't fall from the sky.
It was Ren who brought all Uchiha out to bring something like this back to the family.
The great elder nodded solemnly and said no more nonsense.
He has lived for so many years, and has seen the rise and fall of too many families, and has also seen too many Uchiha geniuses open their eyes, explode, become strong, and then become destroyed step by step due to their power and destiny.
But today is different.
Today, he really saw another way.
A path that would allow Uchiha to no longer rely solely on pain to open his eyes, and no longer rely solely on burning his eyes in exchange for strength.
Ren Seeing that everyone's emotions had been completely ignited, he made arrangements directly without further delay.
"Tiger-Leopard Thunderclap Body-Tempering Technique ninth level, the complete inheritance is temporarily under my control."
"But the first level is enough for the entire clan to get started."
"The threshold for this level is extremely low, and it is suitable for all ages. Even children who have not yet opened their eyes, and even elderly tribesmen can practice it."
He turned to look at the great elder, and his voice suddenly became calm.
"From today on, the first level of Tiger-Leopard Thunderclap Body-Tempering Technique will be handed over to you to organize, teach, register, and supervise. It will be spread throughout the entire Uchiha clan. All clan members must start practicing."
