Uchiha Imperial City ruins.
"Uchiha Raichi, Hachiman, left eye ability increases the power of a technique by three times, right eye ability increases the power of the physical body by three times."
"Uchiha Inabi, Dorotabo, left eye turns everything into a swamp, right eye submerges the target."
"Uchiha Tekka, Ōmagatsuhi, left eye terrifying genjutsu, right eye condenses fear to release monsters."
"Uchiha Izumi, Kugi, left eye anchor summoning, right eye grows objects."
Shisui was recording the four newly added Mangekyo Clan Members.
There were only a few dozen Clan members left, all with Three-Tomoe Sharingan, but only four had awakened the Mangekyo.
The Three-Tomoe Sharingan were already the elite of the elite within the Uchiha clan, and among these elites, only four had awakened it—a probability of about one in ten.
However, this did not surprise them. The Mangekyo required talent.
However, the ocular power in the eyes of the other ten or so Clan members was fluctuating intensely, already exceeding the limits of the Three-Tomoe. Perhaps, like Itachi, they would slowly break through to Mangekyo in a few years.
After this battle, the strength of the Uchiha clan had greatly increased. It could even be called a huge profit but no one could laugh.
Take Uchiha Raichi, the younger sister who was always carefree and running around with her brother Uchiha Raiten. She, who possessed Lightning Release Chakra Mode, used to be someone notable among this reckless group of Clan members. Now, her face was gloomy, and her brows were filled with hatred.
The other three were even worse.
Even Izumi, who was always gentle and loved to smile, was the same.
Not to mention those clan members who hadn't awakened the Mangekyo. They blamed themselves for their cold-bloodedness, watching their friends and family die with their own eyes, yet they hadn't even awakened the Mangekyo.
This, to some extent, left Shisui and the other two speechless. The Mangekyo wasn't exactly common.
But with the clan members in such a state, they couldn't wait any longer.
So, after Kazuto and the others returned with the fleeing Karin, they convened a meeting exclusive to the Mangekyo users.
Shisui (Kotoamatsukami), Fugaku (Tenjin), Itachi (Left Tsukuyomi, Right Amaterasu), Kazuto (Chokubi), Shizuka (Hariti), Raichi (Hachiman), Inabi (Dorotabo), Tekka (Ōmagatsuhi), Izumi (Kugi).
Nine Mangekyo users gathered together.
Raichi, Inabi, Tekka, and Izumi had originally been curious about Kazuto and Shizuka, but now it didn't matter. As long as they could take revenge, anything was fine.
Hatred gradually consumed them, until Kazuto and Shizuka removed their Imperial Guard masks, revealing their true faces. They were all stunned, staring blankly at this young couple.
"They look like Hiromi."
Especially Inabi and Tekka. They were already 19 and 15 years old during the Nine-Tails incident, so they naturally recognized Kazuto and Shizuka.
"You are... Kazutoand Shizuka?" They couldn't believe it.
"Kazuto? Shizuka? That sounds familiar." Raichi and Izumi murmured.
Raichi, who hadn't paid attention initially, saw their faces, which were exactly the same as Hiromi's, and her eyes widened instantly. Izumi was also a little shocked.
"You are Hiromi's parents who went missing on the Nine-Tails incident?!" They were stunned.
Shisui and the other two showed a faint smile.
The next second, their smiles froze.
"Did Hiromi arrange for you to go out?"
"Did Hiromi foresee today a long time ago?"
"What is Hiromi's backup plan?"
Faced with these words, the corners of Shisui and the other two's lips twitched wildly. This was the rhythm of planning to deify Hiromi. He was only a few months old at that time and couldn't even speak.
Kazuto: "..."
Shizuka: "..."
They had prepared themselves for how to answer questions about resurrection, but they didn't expect these clan members to deify Hiromi like this.
Kazuto sighed and said, "Twelve years ago, we did indeed die."
"Then how did you..."
Their pupils constricted sharply.
Could it be...
"Yes, Hiromi resurrected us." Shizuka said.
What a good child!
She wanted to hug him and kiss him. It's just a pity she couldn't lift him high anymore.
"Hiromi can bring the dead back to life?!"
The four of them stood up abruptly, full of surprise, and joy.
Then Raiten, Yashiro, and the others could all be resurrected?
But...
"Why haven't you told us all this time?"
They didn't doubt that Hiromi could resurrect the dead.
In their minds, Hiromi = omnipotent.
Shisui looked at them like they were idiots. "Hiromi doesn't want to resurrect you all."
Raichi: "..."
Inabi: "..."
Tekka: "..."
Izumi: "..."
"I told you all to be steady!" Raichi immediately turned around, hands on her hips, scolding Inabi and the other two.
Inabi and Tekka looked at Raichi with deadpan eyes.
Raichi was thick-skinned and couldn't understand their looks at all.
Turning back, she recovered some of her previous liveliness and excitedly asked, "Then can they all be resurrected?"
Shisui showed a faint smile. "It shouldn't be a problem. Hiromi must have thought of this when he left the Imperial City."
If it were six years ago, Hiromi definitely wouldn't have resurrected them. After all, at that time, he thought the ckan members were too stupid and even wanted to split the clan. Now, although they were reckless, at least they weren't stupid enough to annoy Hiromi.
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and revealed a smile. The repression and hatred on their faces quickly disappeared, leaving only relaxation and peace of mind.
Raichi suddenly remembered something and asked excitedly, "Then is there anything else?"
"What do you want to do?" Fugaku was vigilant in his heart, staring at her.
"I'll tell the clan members. They will definitely be very happy."
"And then?" Fugaku's fist hardened.
"And then? Then everyone can have fun together happily."
"What about their Mangekyo?"
"..."
"If they walk to their own death, and Hiromi doesn't want to resurrect them, what then?"
"..."
For a moment, Raichi was dumbfounded.
Brain... her brain was about to grow a brain!
Although three of these four clan members were quite reckless, those who have experienced awakening the Mangekyo are usually somewhat repressed in their personalities. After all, the trauma is too great.
Even though they are now told they can be resurrected, the trauma will still exist. Therefore, they all decided to keep the secret of Hiromi's ability to resurrect the dead from the rest of the clan. Unless Hiromi is willing to make it public, they will not breathe a word about it.
"Later, have Orochimaru help you transplant some things so that you can use your Mangekyo for longer." Shisui instructed.
"Got it. Once the transplant is done, I'm going to go show off in front of that Wood Release kid, hehe."
"He's dead." Izumi said.
"Eh? He's dead?"
"Yeah, his head exploded right in front of me. If you go look to the north, you should be able to find his head." Izumi said.
"Then let's take the opportunity to dig his eyes back out."
Raichi and the other two were somewhat excited. They could finally do what they had always wanted to do.
"..."
Shisui thought with disdain, 'A dog really can't change its habit of smelling their own butt.'
Shisui spoke up, "His head has already been recovered."
"What about the eyes?"
"Did you dig them out?"
"..."
Shisui sighed and walked away.
Itachi remained silent, pulled Izumi, and followed closely behind.
Then, Kazuto and Shizuka, who were a step late, saw Fugaku catching the three of them and giving them a severe lecture.
He was saying things like Yamato was just a test subject, he didn't steal the eyes himself, he was just a pitiful person, and they were bullying him—were they proud of that? Blah, blah, blah.
They listened for half an hour, and by the time Kazuto and Shizuka came out, they were both a bit dazed.
Before they could even stand steady, they heard Raichi's giggling voice. "Clan Head Fugaku wasn't in good form today."
"Yeah, I even heard him stutter when he was scolding me."
"Most importantly, he usually starts at three hours, he's clearly losing his touch."
"He's weak!"
"Hahahaha!"
Just then, Shisui passed by and let a sentence drift over. "With great power comes great responsibility. From today on, you will assist Clan Head Fugaku in managing the clan members."
Raichi, Inabi, and Tekka: "???"
Izumi walked over. "Good luck."
Then Izumi walked away, leaving the three stiff figures behind.
They recalled every scene of what they had done in the past and then superimposed those memories with Fugaku's figure. The next second, a terrified scream rang out.
"No!!!"
Kazuto: "..."
Shizuka: "..."
