"It's unclear if Itachi's situation is due to his natural talent or his connection to Indra."
"Uchiha Izuna died previously, so we couldn't investigate."
"Fugaku's Mangekyo didn't evolve. I don't know if it's due to his bloodline or his talent, but at least the vision in that Mangekyo Sharingan was restored. Did this consume more of his potential?"
Uchiha Tamahiko didn't know the exact situation. Currently, there are no close relatives who both possess Mangekyo to conduct another experiment.
So, he could only note it down and judge it later.
"This level of strength is sufficient. Once I catch a Tailed Beast for you to use, you should be able to maintain it for several hours."
"Captain Fugaku, after you return, see if you can improve with first hokage cells and then try to activate the complete Susanoo. You can also try with a Tailed Beast."
Uchiha Tamahiko said to the father and son.
Itachi succeeded, but Fugaku didn't. Uchiha Tamahiko couldn't figure out why, only attributing it to their talent.
After all, Itachi was the Uchiha Clan's genius for many years.
Madara, Shisui, Itachi—these three were the true geniuses of recent times. Uchiha Tamahiko felt he was, at most, a bit stronger than Fugaku, but still fell short compared to these three.
"Yes!"
Fugaku and Itachi quickly responded.
Meanwhile, Vinsmoke Judge, hearing the new term, Tailed Beast, was intrigued!
His heart was itching, but since Uchiha Tamahiko didn't elaborate, he didn't press for details.
After all this time, he had realized that this clan definitely held a great secret. He was an outsider; he could only listen to what Uchiha Tamahiko was willing to say, and for what he didn't say, he should, at most, refrain from inquiring!
"Pack up and prepare to leave. The journey ahead will be very troublesome. Once we stop again, that will be our true clan territory."
Uchiha Tamahiko continued.
Vinsmoke Judge was the first to run, eager to save the data and retrieve today's data for careful study.
Izumi, on the other hand, cheerfully followed behind Itachi, her thoughts entirely on him, not at all on strengthening herself.
Only Shisui remained.
"Are you asking if there's a way for your Mangekyo to evolve as well?"
Uchiha Tamahiko said directly.
Shisui nodded.
He didn't necessarily want the power of the complete Susanoo, but he felt he needed this power.
He saw Itachi as a younger brother. If Itachi encountered danger in the future, would he really let Itachi fight while he could only watch helplessly?
He didn't want that day to come!
"As far as I know, there isn't."
"My method is not something others can do. Itachi's situation requires a close relative to replace their Mangekyo Sharingan."
"Even using first hokage cells back in the Ninja World would only achieve the same as Captain Fugaku, suppressing the Mangekyo's side effects to almost nothing and increasing Chakra weight. It can't achieve Itachi's qualitative change, allowing the Mangekyo to evolve."
Uchiha Tamahiko said directly.
His cheat couldn't be used by others, and he only knew this one method for evolving to Eternal Mangekyo in the Ninja World.
Hearing Uchiha Tamahiko's words, Shisui nodded silently, no longer insisting.
"The only possibility is if Vinsmoke Judge researches something, finds the difference between Eternal Mangekyo and regular Mangekyo, and then modifies you."
"However, this is not easy, and Vinsmoke Judge is not from the Ninja World, so whether his research will be effective cannot be determined. After returning to the Ninja World, I will recruit Orochimaru to research together and find this possibility."
"And Shisui, don't be confined by the Uchiha's power. This world also holds infinite possibilities, doesn't it?"
"The power of bloodline has its limits, but people can surpass those limits!"
Uchiha Tamahiko said, seeing Shisui's expression, giving him hope and also a pep talk.
Indeed, after listening to Uchiha Tamahiko's words, Shisui's expression became more confident.
It somewhat resembled his former sunny demeanor, though now with a hint of melancholy.
"I understand, Clan Head!"
Shisui replied earnestly.
Uchiha Tamahiko was very pleased to see Shisui, re-energized after being swayed by him.
The Uchiha are indeed easy to sway!
After resolving the issue with Itachi's eyes, the next step was relocation. It took a full day to transport everything needed onto the ships.
Then, a barrier seal was left on the island. As long as no one invaded and broke it, this barrier could last for three years, especially since no one lived on this island. What if it came in handy later?
"Target: Sabaody Archipelago."
Uchiha Tamahiko ordered via Den Den Mushi.
Ten ships immediately set sail and began their voyage.
Then, Uchiha Tamahiko gathered all the high-ranking members, preparing for a meeting.
This time, in addition to the Uchiha, Rob Lucci and Vinsmoke Judge were also summoned by Uchiha Tamahiko.
"Our target this time is Fish-Man Island. This place was previously territory protected by the Whitebeard Pirates, one of the Four Emperors Pirate Crew."
"However, the Whitebeard Pirates are now being hunted by a Marine Admiral and are completely unable to continue protecting this territory. I plan to incorporate this area into the Uchiha's sphere of influence."
"At the same time, we will train our forces here!"
Uchiha Tamahiko revealed his plan.
After Whitebeard's death, the Whitebeard Pirates lacked the strength to hold onto their former territories. Now, even survival was difficult because the Marines would not let them go.
Sakazuki and Kuzan were competing for the position of Fleet Admiral, and their contest had turned into whoever captured or killed Fire Fist Ace first would become Fleet Admiral.
So, the Whitebeard Pirates were now targeted by two Admirals. The other Four Emperors would not help, so it would be good if the Whitebeard Pirates didn't perish.
"There are enough enemies here for training. All pirates heading to the New World will pass through here, and there are also some troubles on Fish-Man Island."
"While learning Armament Haki and strengthening our bodies, we will return to Konoha when the time is right."
Uchiha Tamahiko said with determination in his eyes.
Inside the ship's cabin, the Uchiha Clan members had complex expressions, though most were filled with resentment.
Shisui was the most distressed. Unlike the other Uchiha Clan members, who were excited about returning to Konoha.
Only Vinsmoke Judge and Rob Lucci didn't know what was going on, but they dared not ask, only listening silently.
"We can start learning Armament Haki on the way now."
"Shisui, you are responsible for ships 1 to 5. I will be responsible for the rest."
"Starting today, all members of the Uchiha combat unit will undergo intensive physical training. Vinsmoke Judge, you are responsible for collecting and analyzing the data."
"Rob Lucci, you will serve as the instructor for physical enhancement training."
"That is all. Dismissed."
Uchiha Tamahiko then ordered.
Comprehensively enhance the Uchiha Clan's combat power, then return to Konoha!
