REVIEWS AND POWERSTONES PLSSS!!!!!Chapter 84: Uchiha Yasushi's Right Eye Technique
Entering Orochimaru's room again, Yasushi found the place had completely transformed.
The bookshelves that had been filled with various books and scrolls had been cleared out, now replaced with numerous vials. Inside them, arranged in rows and columns, were pure white Byakugan—densely packed, at least dozens of pairs.
This wasn't Yasushi's concern though. He only glanced casually before getting straight to the point:
"So, Orochimaru, how's your preparation for the First Hokage's cell transplant?"
Orochimaru squinted those serpentine eyes, examining Yasushi up and down. After a moment, he smiled slyly:
"Your condition doesn't look very good!"
"Are you certain you want to proceed with the cell transplant right now?"
"Though I've updated the anti-rejection medication again, the First Hokage's cells are extremely invasive. The success rate of forcing the transplant isn't actually very high."
Facing Orochimaru's probing, Yasushi showed no offense, merely breathing heavily as he replied:
"Your energy is probably all focused on the Tenseigan now, right?"
"Where would you find the mood to continue researching First Hokage cells?"
"My current state has already become somewhat unbalanced. I must transplant the First Hokage's cells as soon as possible. Even if there's some risk, I can't delay any longer!"
"Even Danzo could balance First Hokage cells with Sharingan. There's no reason I should be worse than him!"
"I see!" Orochimaru's long tongue flickered at his lips, his eyes showing the look one gives a lab rat. "Then there's nothing more to say!"
"Since you have this resolve, I can perform the cell transplant for you anytime."
"Let's do it now then!" Yasushi urged impatiently. "I can't wait any longer. Hurry and prepare for surgery!"
"Very well!" Orochimaru agreed with a chuckle, ushering Yasushi into the small laboratory in the inner room, then nimbly preparing a large array of medical instruments and medications.
Yasushi removed his upper garment and lay on the examination table. Three clansmen positioned themselves at three corners of the laboratory, their eyes burning as they watched Orochimaru, preventing him from pulling any tricks.
Looking at the three crimson Mangekyo Sharingan on Yasushi's body, Orochimaru unconsciously licked his lips again.
He coveted the Mangekyo Sharingan as well, but now he had a better choice.
After witnessing the Rinnegan's dominance, his anticipation for the Tenseigan had exceeded that for the Mangekyo Sharingan.
What was Susanoo compared to Chibaku Tensei? Just a little bitch!
Moreover, ordinary Mangekyo Sharingan would go blind after prolonged use—completely consumable goods!
Orochimaru connected equipment like electrocardiograms to Yasushi's body, beginning to record baseline data.
"Unbalanced this quickly?"
Looking at these indicators completely abnormal for ordinary people, Orochimaru mused thoughtfully:
"It seems not only do First Hokage cells have invasive properties, but you Uchiha's Sharingan are invasive as well!"
"I heard Kakashi's Sharingan placed great pressure on his body. Looks like it's true."
"You actually dared to implant three Sharingan in your body—all Mangekyo too. How greedy!"
"But this works out well. With these three eyes as balancing agents, your success rate for transplanting First Hokage cells will definitely increase substantially."
Yasushi snorted coldly but said nothing.
Actually, the reason for his ocular power imbalance wasn't just these three Mangekyo Sharingan. The biggest problem was actually his right eye's technique.
His right eye's technique was called Jubaku Unika—Curse Binding Transfer!
In mythological stories, when people mentioned "The White Rabbit of Inaba," they always focused on the protagonist Ōkuninushi. He healed the white rabbit, received the rabbit's gratitude, and won Yagami-hime's hand. But they completely overlooked the supporting characters.
Namely, the eighty gods who served as comic relief!
People often forgot that originally, the ones going to marry Yagami-hime were actually the eighty gods!
Ōkuninushi had always been the little brother bullied by the eighty gods, merely responsible for carrying their bags!
Under normal circumstances, Yagami-hime would never possibly marry such a small fry!
But because the eighty gods harmed the white rabbit while Ōkuninushi saved it, the white rabbit "prophesied" that Yagami-hime wouldn't marry any of the eighty gods—only Ōkuninushi!
Was this a "prophecy"?
This was clearly a damn "curse"!
Therefore, Jubaku Unika's effect was to parasitize ocular power within an enemy's body, causing the enemy to grow increasingly chaotic. Simultaneously, it could secretly steal from the enemy and transfer it to another person.
This was a subtle, gradual curse. Its power wasn't actually very strong, but it was extremely covert and never-ending!
The reason Itachi cast aside his brother and progressed further on the path of "loving Konoha"—this cursed ocular technique deserved much credit!
As for "Unika"—transfer—in mythology, the white rabbit transferred a divine marriage contract. In the shinobi world, this manifested as chakra, ocular techniques, ninjutsu, secret techniques, forbidden techniques, and such.
The nightmares for Obito and Itachi weren't actually necessary. Instead, the nightmares would make them vigilant, leading them to seek countermeasures.
In the shinobi world, nothing was invincible!
But Yasushi insisted on arranging these nightmares for them. The purpose was to make them suffer!
Even if it meant taking some risks, he didn't care!
This approach was actually very irrational, but Yasushi wasn't a normal person—he did it anyway!
Compared to "transferring" Obito and Itachi's ocular power and forbidden techniques, Yasushi actually cared more about the accompanying nightmare effect of "Jubaku"—the curse binding.
Why must he kill them?
If they just closed their eyes and kicked out their legs, they wouldn't know anything, running off to the Pure Land for eternal slumber!
How convenient for them that would be, right? Fuck no!
What Yasushi wanted was for them to live in pain their entire lives!
Just like himself!
The reason Yasushi's ocular power was unbalanced was also because of this technique!
This technique wasn't the type that benefited the user!
Rather, it had the attached nature of "the white rabbit's gratitude."
Transfer, transfer—not only must you "steal," but you must also "give"!
In other words, whatever ocular power or chakra this technique stole from others, the caster himself couldn't use—it all had to be transferred to someone else!
Why should that be?
Yasushi was very indignant!
Why should I give things I stole with my own abilities to others?
Besides, with the Uchiha already exterminated, who would he give it to anyway?
So Yasushi forcibly retained all this ocular power, wanting to forcibly fuse it with his own ocular power to reach an even higher level!
When two brothers' ocular powers fused, the resulting high-quality ocular power could evolve Mangekyo Sharingan into Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. So if several more people's ocular powers fused, could even higher quality ocular power be obtained?
But regrettably, under his ocular technique's influence, the ocular power stolen from Itachi and Obito simply wouldn't fuse with his ocular power at all!
What you "steal" must be "transferred"—not transferring won't work!
The two remained distinct and clear!
Moreover, if not exactly incompatible like fire and water, they at least clashed upon meeting.
Conversely, the ocular power from the Mangekyo Sharingan transplanted from Fugaku had smoothly fused with his ocular power.
