• Shisui and Itachi told Sasuke that Yuzuru was extraordinarily powerful, and Sasuke said he wanted to test himself against him.
• Uchiha Izumi visited Itachi, and Sasuke realized his brother had found happiness with her after escaping Konoha and Fugaku’s control.

• Yuzuru and Kaguya brought Urashiki's body to Amenominaka, where Little Ten-Tails devoured it and began digesting the power.

Yuzuru explained that Susanoo was the Uchiha’s Third Power, which the Mangekyō Sharingan unlocked, and Sasuke confirmed that Madara Uchiha could use it while blind. Itachi tested Tsunade’s eye drops and found they let him use Mangekyō Dōjutsu four times with little or no ocular drain.

• Itachi dispelled Susanoo and told Tsunade that the eye drops had greatly reduced its strain on his eyes.
• Yuzuru explained that Susanoo was the Uchiha’s Third Power and that mastering it could let someone use it without the Sharingan.
• Sasuke arrived, confirmed Yuzuru’s explanation, and identified Madara Uchiha as someone who used Susanoo while blind.
• Yuzuru explained the limits on outsiders and the unique Mangekyō Sharingan needed to unlock Susanoo; Tsunade joked about sharing a pair, and Yuzuru said it would not work.
• Itachi repeatedly cast Amaterasu at a wooden dummy and found that the eye drops let him use Mangekyō Dōjutsu four times before significant strain returned.
• Itachi thanked Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Yuzuru for helping prolong his life, and Yuzuru praised him to Tsunade.

• Orochimaru demonstrated the Heavenly Eye, which displayed a real-time overhead map of the area, and Yuzuru praised its potential for future wars and postwar administration.

Yuzuru told Mei Terumi that Orochimaru had developed technology that would transform warfare and require reforming the Military Department. He insisted on overwhelming the Shinobi World with minimal casualties among Sea Capital citizens, leaving Mei and her aides to review the new technology and discuss reforms after Orochimaru brought it the next day.

• Yuzuru visited Mei Terumi’s office and announced that the Military Department needed reform because Orochimaru had developed technology that could change warfare.
• Yuzuru said the Sea Capital’s new weapons and Scientific Ninja Tools would allow it to dominate the Shinobi World, and he wanted to minimize casualties among its own people.
• Yuzuru declared that enemy ninja were expendable and argued that crushing resistance would prevent future threats to the new world.
• Mei Terumi warned that his plan could greatly reduce the Shinobi World’s population, but Yuzuru said improved living conditions and a new education system would replace the old era within a generation.
• Mei Terumi agreed to support Yuzuru and asked how the Military Department would change; Yuzuru said they would discuss reforms after Orochimaru showed them the technology the next day.

Mei Terumi and the Sea Capital's military leaders prepared to reform warfare around Orochimaru's Heavenly Eye and new technology. Meanwhile, the Ino-Shika-Cho clans left Konoha with Yuzuru's help and arrived in the Land of Water, where Shikaku recognized his identity.

• Mei Terumi told the clan heads that clans could exist in the Sea Capital but could not monopolize things, and Shikaku confirmed that their clans had no special rules.

Mei Terumi set rules for the Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi families as they settled in the Sea Capital, while Shikamaru showed his relatives the city and explained that the age of ninja had ended. The three clan leaders accepted that their families would need to adapt and live as ordinary people.

• Mei Terumi told Shikaku, Inoichi, and Choza to keep their businesses focused, follow the law, and pay for their housing, while encouraging Nara clan members to study technology.

• Danzo, Mitokado Homura, and Utatane Koharu told Hiruzen Sarutobi that the Ino-Shika-Cho clans had disappeared.

• Mitokado Homura urged Hiruzen Sarutobi to explain the clans’ disappearance, but they could not agree on a convincing account.
• Shikamaru told Shikaku that the clans had settled across the Land of Water, with much of their money spent on homes and shares in a deer park.

• Sasuke Uchiha told Yuzuru he would discuss changing the Shinobi World with Naruto, while Boruto Uzumaki pledged to join his master.
• Sasuke declined Yuzuru’s offer of help returning to Konoha, and Yuzuru offered to help if Sasuke could not activate the device there.
