The gap between an ordinary Three-Tomoe Sharingan and a Mangekyō Sharingan was enormous. Even the Three-Tomoe Sharingan was exceedingly rare.
Yet of a hundred pairs of Three-Tomoe Sharingan, perhaps not one would evolve into a Mangekyō Sharingan. Uchiha Yi strongly suspected that the Uchiha Clan in Konoha did not currently possess a single pair.
He did not know whether the Clan Leader had awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, but most likely, he had not.
For now, all Uchiha Yi could do was accumulate as much Eye Power as possible.
He had even wondered whether the Mangekyō Sharingan was a product of the Sharingan's decline.
When Hagoromo Otsutsuki had the Three-Tomoe Sharingan, his Eye Power had already reached the level of a Mangekyō Sharingan—and an Eternal Eye at that.
Once Indra awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, he could use the Complete Body Susanoo. His was also an Eternal Eye.
But later, the Uchiha developed a distinction between the Mangekyō Sharingan and the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. That was proof of their bloodline's decline.
On the surface, Indra had inherited only the Sage Eyes. But compared with those said to possess the Sage Body in today's Shinobi World, Indra would have looked far more like one of them. That much was certain. After all, he was Hagoromo Otsutsuki's son.

Unfortunately, the Battle Space had boundaries, and wide-area attacks were Gaara's specialty. Uchiha Yi put up a fight, but in the end, he lost.
A Kage Level fighter was formidable indeed. Even with the Flying Thunder God Technique under his control, Uchiha Yi could
