While the Senju Clan was discussing how to break the deadlock, the Uchiha was also considering how to do the same.
Compared to the Senju Clan, who couldn't think of a solution at all, the Uchiha did have a few ideas.
First, Uchiha Takashi himself raised his strength to the Six Paths level, directly comparable to the Sage of Six Paths.
In this way, Shura Senju would be nothing more than a junior in his eyes; he could simply transform into a great fortune and create a flying form for him.
Even if the Sage of Six Paths intervened and gave all his power to Shura Senju, it wouldn't be enough. After all, Uchiha Takashi's strength was comparable to the Sage of Six Paths. What could your Six Paths Mode alone withstand?
However, this is not an option for the time being, because Uchiha Takashi's current strength is only Super Kage, barely suppressing Shura Senju, and he cannot directly pass through.
Shura Senju's strength is still growing, and he's almost at Hashirama Senju's level. If it weren't for the continuous improvement of Uchiha Takashi's Susanoo, he might have been completely crushed by Shura Senju one day.
Another method is for Uchiha Takashi's strength to be comparable to that of Shura Senju after his power-up, at the Six Paths level. The two would then clash, resulting in mutual destruction, after which Uchiha Hikari would step in and wipe out the Senju Clan.
However, the reason this hasn't been realized yet is exactly the same as the previous one: Uchiha Takashi's current strength is insufficient. If it were, he would have already taken action.
Are there any other options? Is waiting the only thing we can do?
Uchiha Shin: Look at me! Look at me!
Uchiha Takashi shook his head. "Sigh, it seems the only solution is to improve my own strength. I'll have to wait..."
Uchiha Shin: You bastard! You've forgotten about me, haven't you? Are you the reincarnation of Indra, or am I the reincarnation of Indra?
"Clan leader, are you there?" A voice pulled Uchiha Takashi back to reality. He looked down and saw that it was Uchiha Takashi Uchiha Shin had somehow appeared in front of him.
"Oh, it's Little Shin. What's wrong? Is there something you need?" Uchiha Takashi asked with a smile, his head lowered, but inwardly he was getting impatient. After all, Uchiha Shin had been coming to see him Tenten past few days, and he was getting really annoyed.
Uchiha Shin grinned and said, "Clan leader, didn't you say you'd teach me Senjutsu? I've almost finished learning it at military academy, when are you going to teach me Senjutsu?"
Uchiha Takashi: "... Oh!" Oh no, he seems to have forgotten about this. Cough cough, what do you mean he forgot? It was a test!
Uchiha Takashi then remembered that he had indeed promised Uchiha Shin he would teach him Senjutsu, but at the time, to save trouble, he had simply dumped him at the military academy, telling him to learn there first and then he would be taught.
Now, Uchiha Shin has indeed mastered most of the military academy's knowledge. Aside from his illiteracy, he has essentially completed his studies.
Seeing Uchiha Shin's excited and expectant expression, Uchiha Takashi finally decided against sending him away on the grounds that he was illiterate.
Since he had nothing better to do, teaching a junior member wouldn't hurt. He knew how difficult Senjutsu Mode was, and it was even more difficult for the Uchiha to learn Senjutsu.
If the Uchiha Shin stumped by Senjutsu Mode and devotes all their energy to practicing Senjutsu, perhaps they won't bother me anymore.
"Alright, Little Shin, today I'll teach you how to learn Senjutsu!" Thinking this, Uchiha Takashi nodded and said, "Perfect timing, you're old enough."
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Shin immediately looked up, his expression excited, and exclaimed, "Great! I can finally learn Senjutsu!"
Uchiha Takashi: "Alright, now sense if there's anything unusual in the air?"
Uchiha Shin dumbfounded. "Huh? What? Is there anything special in the air? I didn't sense anything!"
Uchiha Takashi patted Uchiha Shin on the shoulder and said slowly, "So-called Senjutsu are about condensing the Natural Energy in the air into one's own body, synthesizing Senjutsu Chakra, and storing it within one's body."
So, the first step to learning Senjutsu is, of course, to sense the Natural Energy in the air.
Uchiha Takashi said with absolute certainty, "So what you need to do now is sense if there are any special energy sources in the air. As long as you can sense them, then you can move on to the next step."
Uchiha Shin was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand, I'll go sense it right now!" With that, he dashed off into the distance.
Watching Uchiha Shin's departing figure, Uchiha Takashi nodded with satisfaction. "Ah, he really is a young man full of energy."
However, Uchiha Takashi didn't tell Uchiha Shin a certain secret: the concentration of Natural Energy varies from place to place.
The concentration of Natural Energy within the Three Great Sage Lands is completely different from that outside Three Great Sage Lands.
In any case, within the Uchiha's current camp, the Natural Energy is so thin that it's almost imperceptible. Of course, Uchiha Takashi is a natural Sage Body, so he can sense it, and therefore he overlooked this point.
Normal people who cultivate Senjutsu usually go to one of the Three Great Sage Lands to cultivate, except for freaks Uchiha Takashi who can cultivate directly outside...
Therefore, unless Uchiha Shin is like him, possessing a naturally born Sage Body, it's absolutely impossible for him to sense Natural Energy.
Let this guy take his time and enjoy himself; at least he won't be bothered while I'm on the front lines.
Just as Uchiha Takashi was thinking this, that very night, Uchiha Shin came to the outside of his tent again.
"Clan Chief, I think I feel a powerful force within my body! Could it be Natural Energy?" Uchiha Shin rushed in excitedly.
Uchiha Takashi was fast asleep, suddenly sat up, his eyes still blurry with sleep, and stared at Uchiha Shin, not even having heard what he said.
"Um... what did you say?" Uchiha Takashi rubbed his eyes, yawned, and said in a muffled voice, "What did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly. Say it again."
Uchiha Shin had no choice but to repeat what he had just said. Uchiha Takashi finally understood, but his still-malfunctioning brain didn't quite register it.
"Oh, I feel it! There's a powerful force within my body! Oh, such a powerful force, such a powerful force..."
Then Uchiha Takashi's eyes widened suddenly. "Hmm, a powerful force inside your body, what are you talking about? Let me see right now!"
Natural Energy resides outside the body; how could it possibly appear inside?
For some unknown reason, Uchiha Takashi was so frightened that he immediately activated his Mangekyō Sharingan and scanned the area. The result of his scan made him breathe a sigh of relief.
The Uchiha Shin isn't Senjutsu Chakra, but Indra's Chakra! Yet Uchiha Shin just said he could sense this power.
This means that Indra's Chakra is currently awakening! For Uchiha Shin, who is the reincarnation of Indra, the awakening of Indra's Chakra is of no harm to him.
Not only did it not cause any harm, but after Indra's Chakra Mangekyō Sharingan, repairing the damage caused by the loss of his bloodline that prevented his eye power from recovering.
In layman's terms: Uchiha Shin's actions have caused his Mangekyō Sharingan to evolve into the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. Was this a lucky accident or a blessing in disguise?
