What the Third Hokage didn't expect was that Kakashi's lack of improvement in strength over the years wasn't just due to his mentality, but also because of his Sharingan.
That Sharingan wasn't an ordinary three-tomoe Sharingan, but the Mangekyou Sharingan. Kakashi wasn't originally from the Uchiha clan, so using the Sharingan naturally consumed more energy than the Uchiha clan. Moreover, his Sharingan couldn't be turned off, always remaining in the three-tomoe state, which meant it was constantly consuming Kakashi's chakra.
It's all thanks to Kakashi. If it were someone else, with this kind of draining method, they wouldn't even get their strength improved, let alone be drained dry.
The Hatake clan is renowned for its Hatake swordsmanship, and Kakashi's father, Sakumo Hatake, perfected it. Moreover, Kakashi was already skilled in Hatake swordsmanship before he obtained Obito's Sharingan.
Kakashi later used the Sharingan as his main means of attack, which was equivalent to abandoning what he was good at and switching to what he was not good at. It would be strange if his strength improved.
Despite all this thought, it really just came to mind for Uchiha Kazuyama. He was naturally willing to be assigned to Kakashi's team by the Third Hokage, because it would make it easier to copy the Kamui eye technique and get closer to Yamato. Uchiha Kazuyama immediately said to Kakashi:
"Kakashi-senpai, thank you for your help."
Before Uchiha Kakuzan came to report to the Third Hokage, the Third Hokage had already spoken to Kakashi, so Kakashi was not surprised at all that Uchiha Kakuzan was assigned to him.
Since the Third Hokage still had work to do, he didn't keep them any longer and had Kakashi lead Uchiha Kakuyama to complete the process of joining the Anbu.
Kakashi took Uchiha Kakuyama to many places, such as leaving files, collecting equipment, uniforms and masks, etc.
Uchiha Kakuzan wasn't impatient. For him, joining the Anbu was a rather interesting thing, and experiencing everything wasn't a bad thing.
Finally, Kakashi took Uchiha Kazuyama to the area directly beneath the Hokage Building—the Anbu base.
Uchiha Kakuzan hadn't expected that the Anbu base was actually inside Konoha Village, and right below the Hokage Building. But thinking about it, it made sense. After all, the Anbu was a combat unit directly under the Hokage, and it wasn't something that could be done in secret. So, it was only natural that it was located as close to the Hokage as possible.
Since the Anbu members are either on missions outside the village and haven't returned, or they are responsible for protecting the Hokage and are currently near the Hokage's office, there aren't many people at the Anbu base.
Because not all the personnel were present, Kakashi did not introduce Uchiha Kazuyama to him. Instead, he told Kazuyama to come on time the next day when he took over the shift, and Kakashi would introduce him to everyone then.
Uchiha Kazuyama had no objection to Kakashi's arrangement, so after collecting his items, he honorably left work.
As he left the Anbu base, Uchiha Kakuyama seemed to catch a glimpse of a purple-haired figure from behind, which intrigued him. However, when he tried to get a closer look, the figure disappeared.
Chapter 55 Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan
Chapter 55 Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan
Uchiha Kakuzan didn't pay much attention to the newly appeared purple-haired figure from behind. He figured it was just a member of the Anbu. Since they couldn't find it today, they could wait until everyone was there tomorrow.
Since Kakashi had to stay at the Hokage Building, he didn't try to persuade Uchiha Kakuzan to stay any longer. Uchiha Kakuzan didn't mind, said goodbye to the Third Hokage, and went home.
By the time Uchiha Kazuyama left the Hokage Building, it was already afternoon. Kazuyama didn't plan to wander around the village. After all, he hadn't had a moment's rest since morning. Since he could leave work early today, he decided to go home and rest.
When Uchiha Kakuzan returned to the clan's territory, he did not go straight home, but instead went to Uchiha Mikoto's house.
Uchiha Kakuzan took Uchiha Fugaku's instructions to heart. As the vice-head of the Uchiha clan and Sasuke's teacher, he was responsible for taking care of Mikoto and Sasuke since the clan head was away. Plus, he could get a free meal.
Furthermore, Mikoto said that these few days are quite important, and if Uchiha Akiyama puts in his best effort during these days, the chances of Mikoto getting pregnant will be very high.
For the future and prosperity of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Kakuzan naturally had to work hard. After all, Uchiha Kakuzan was a man who had awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, and the offspring he and Mikoto created naturally had much higher talent than ordinary Uchiha clan members.
When Uchiha Kazuyama arrived at Uchiha Mikoto's house, Mikoto had already anticipated it and had prepared a sumptuous dinner for him. Next to Mikoto was his newly accepted disciple, Uchiha Sasuke.
Since Uchiha Kakuzan was already Uchiha Sasuke's teacher, he could legitimately and frequently visit Uchiha Fugaku's house without anyone saying anything.
Moreover, Fugaku Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha have already expanded their territory on Uzushima Island. These two biggest eyesores have been sent to Uzushima Island by Uchiha Kakuzan. In addition, given Kakuzan's current strength and status, the Uchiha clan members all admire him, and there are no more people who would gossip about him.
After dinner, Uchiha Kakuyama left on his own. After all, it wasn't appropriate for Fugaku and his mother to stay overnight at their house.
After leaving, Uchiha Kakuyama did not return to his home, but instead teleported directly into his space.
When the night was deep and quiet, before Uchiha Kazuyama could activate Uchiha Mikoto's spatial imprint and teleport her over, he sensed spatial fluctuations. The next second, Uchiha Mikoto, holding a tray and wearing a close-fitting kimono, appeared in front of Uchiha Kazuyama.
Uchiha Kakuzan knew that his sister Mikoto had come to find him after she had put Sasuke to sleep.
Now, in Fugaku Uchiha's household, only the pitiful Sasuke Uchiha remains.
After seeing the look in Uchiha Okayama's eyes, Uchiha Mikoto blushed and explained, "I left a shadow clone to accompany Sasuke."
Without saying a word, Uchiha Kazuyama simply picked up Uchiha Mikoto and carried her into the house next door.
Over the next few days, Akiyama Uchiha spent his days on duty at the Hokage Building with Kakashi, and his nights holding Mikoto Uchiha, working hard for the next generation. He also wanted to see if the child he and Mikoto were to conceive together would have high talent.
A week later, just as Uchiha Kakuzan was preparing to send the second echelon of people organized by the Grand Elder to Uzushima Island, Uchiha Kakuzan's secret technique—Lightning Release Armor—finally achieved a breakthrough.
It should be said that the body trained using the Lightning Release Armor has finally achieved a breakthrough.
On this day, in the Takamagahara space, Uchiha Kakuyama was preparing to finish his Lightning Release Armor training for the day when he suddenly felt something was wrong. It was as if his body had been reborn, and a power surged out from the depths of his body.
Uchiha Kakuzan knew that this was his chance to break through his physical limits. Without further concern for injury, he immediately increased his chakra output.
This directly resulted in the Lightning Release Armor becoming increasingly powerful. From a distance, Uchiha Akiyama appeared to be surrounded by lightning, and the crackling sounds could be heard very far.
As the strength of the Layton Armor increased, Uchiha Akiyama felt his physical strength undergoing a transformation.
It's as if my body has become stronger inside and out, several times stronger.
After experiencing the transformation of his body, Uchiha Akiyama gradually reduced his chakra output, causing the electric light in his body to weaken. Ultimately, Uchiha Akiyama stopped training in the Layton Armor.
At that moment, Uchiha Akiyama felt as if his Sharingan was out of control.
He opened it involuntarily, first the three-tomoe Sharingan, then the three-tomoe Sharingan spun faster and faster, evolving into the Mangekyou Sharingan, and this was not the end.
Uchiha Akiyama's Mangekyou Sharingan spun faster and faster, until finally some patterns seemed to appear out of thin air on his Mangekyou Sharingan, making it even more exquisite and beautiful.
Just as Uchiha Akiyama's Mangekyou Sharingan evolved into the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, Uchiha Akiyama felt a change in his body.
Both his chakra and eye power were greatly amplified. Moreover, Uchiha Kakuzan could feel that his eyes had been strengthened and would no longer be damaged when using eye techniques.
Just then, the system, which hadn't appeared for a long time, finally emitted the voice that Uchiha Kakuyama had been waiting for.
"Congratulations, host Uchiha Kakuyama, your Mangekyou Sharingan has evolved into the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. Your chakra and ocular power have increased dramatically."
"The Eye Technique of the God of Dispelling Heaven has been enhanced."
The eye technique instantly enhanced the space-time dimension.
Takamagahara's eye technique was enhanced.
Izanagi's eye technique has been enhanced.
The pupil technique's copying ability has been enhanced.
. . . . . .
Please wait patiently, host. As your Mangekyou Sharingan has evolved into the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, all your eye techniques have been enhanced. It is expected that the enhancement will be completed in two hours.
Upon hearing the system's notification, Uchiha Akiyama happily opened his eyes. After so many days of hard work, he had finally reaped the rewards. Not only had his physical body been strengthened, but this strengthening had also allowed his Sharingan to evolve. He could finally use his eye techniques without restraint, no longer worrying about their side effects.
Chapter 56 Changes in Takamagahara
Chapter 56 Changes in Takamagahara
Through his tireless efforts and with the help of the system, Uchiha Okayama's Mangekyou Sharingan finally evolved into the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
After sensing that his Sharingan had evolved and stabilized, Uchiha Kakuyama slowly opened his eyes.
It was noticeable that Uchiha Kakuzan's Sharingan differed somewhat from his previous Mangekyou Sharingan. The patterns within his eyes were more complex than before, with added background textures that made his eyes even more beautiful and magnificent.
Moreover, the entire eye is like a work of art, as if this evolution has changed the entire texture of the eye, as if it were carved from the finest jade, rather than made of flesh and blood.
Uchiha Kakuyama slowly opened his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and was shocked by the world he saw.
Is this the world seen through the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan?
Everything in the world seemed so lifelike. Dust particles, invisible to the naked eye, floated in the air, and the whole world seemed to have been filtered through a high-definition lens. As my attention became more focused, everything I saw seemed to be slowed down, making it all clearly visible.
As Uchiha Kakuzan looked at the world, he became lost in self-pity. Things he had taken for granted suddenly became clear, awakening his indifferent heart.
Uchiha Kakuyama slowly withdrew his gaze and began to examine his own body.
Since obtaining the Lightning Release Armor from the Raikage lineage, Uchiha Kakuyama has never stopped training. Coupled with his extraordinary mental strength, he can meticulously control the unruly lightning chakra, making his physical training twice as effective.
Through Uchiha Kakuzan's tireless efforts, he finally completed the first stage of the Lightning Release Armor training, strengthening his physical body to the same level as a Jonin who primarily trains in physical combat. In other words, his physical strength, including in terms of stamina, power, and vitality, was comparable to that of a taijutsu Jonin. His reaction speed, especially, was exceptionally high due to the enhancement of his body by lightning-style chakra.
The most representative figure of this is the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze. It was thanks to his amazing reaction speed and the space-time ninjutsu Flying Thunder God Technique that the Fourth Hokage was able to kill ordinary Jonin as easily as killing chickens. This led his enemies to issue orders that if they encountered the 'Yellow Flash,' they could abandon their missions and would not be held responsible.
Of course, Uchiha Kakuzan's reaction speed is still somewhat slower than that of the Fourth Hokage, but it is much stronger than that of others.
After checking his physical strength, Uchiha Kakuyama nodded in satisfaction. The body is the foundation of everything. Chakra is a combination of spirit and body. Only with a strong body can he go further in the future.
Next, there's his own chakra. Since he's not from the Senju or Uzumaki clans, his chakra isn't as strong as theirs. However, as his Sharingan evolves into the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and his physical strength increases, his chakra has also become a massive chakra. Now, he probably could even change the terrain in the desert using water jutsu, just like Kisame, becoming a man who can summon the sea at any time.
Although Uchiha Kakuzan's eyes had evolved into the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, while the eye evolution was complete, the eye techniques within them were still evolving. To prevent any further accidents, Uchiha Kakuzan simply waited patiently on the space island.
However, as time went on, Uchiha Kakuyama clearly felt that his control over this space was getting stronger and stronger. If someone was in this space, Uchiha Kakuyama could only kick them out of this space. But now, Uchiha Kakuyama could clearly feel that he could move intruders at will. Uchiha Kakuyama himself could perceive everything in this space and could move to any place in this space at will according to his will.
Just as Uchiha Kakuzan was gaining a deeper understanding of this space, he suddenly felt a faint sense of repulsion on his body. Uchiha Kakuzan inexplicably realized that his eye technique 'Takamagahara' was about to be fully evolved and that he needed to go out for a while, otherwise he would disturb the evolution of this space.
Unsure whether the evolution of his eye technique would cause a major disturbance, Uchiha Kakuzan neither returned to Konoha nor went to Uzushima Island. Instead, he chose a spatial imprint he had left in a secluded place when he last left the village.
Just after Uchiha Kazuyama emerged from the spatial dimension, the system's voice appeared in his mind.
'Congratulations, host, your Kotoamatsukami eye technique has completed its evolution.'
'Congratulations, host, your eye technique, Instantaneous Time Evolution, is complete.'
'Congratulations, host, your Izanagi eye technique has evolved.'
'Congratulations, host, the evolution of the Eye Technique Replication is complete.'
'Congratulations, host, your Takamagahara eye technique has completed its evolution.'
'The host's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan eye techniques have all evolved completely. Please learn more about the details yourself.'
Uchiha Kakuzan hadn't expected that all his eye techniques would have already evolved by the time he emerged from the Takamagahara space. It seemed that if he hadn't been delayed in the space, the evolution of his eye techniques would have been completed by now.
With this in mind, Uchiha Kakuzan returned to the Takamagahara space without the slightest hesitation.
Upon entering the space, Uchiha Kakuyama was stunned by everything before him.
Actually, the island in the Takamagahara space before Uchiha Kakuyama wasn't very big; it was just a relatively small island, enough to house a village (a small village with a few hundred people). But now, after being strengthened, the biggest change is that the entire island has become at least ten times larger. Now, even if the entire Uchiha clan moved in, it would be more than enough.
As the island grew larger, its water source changed from a stream to a river, flowing out from a place near the top of the mountain, meandering across most of the island, and finally flowing into the sea.
Actually, Uchiha Kakuzan had been curious before and wanted to see if he could go to the far reaches of the sea. Unfortunately, he encountered a spatial barrier not far from the sea and had to return disappointed.
Looking around, the entire island appeared magnificent and spectacular. Although it was still not as impressive as Uchiha Kakuyama, this island belonged entirely to him.
Chapter 57 Evolution of Eye Techniques
Chapter 57 Evolution of Eye Techniques
Standing atop the highest point of the spatial island, Uchiha Kakuyama looked out with boundless pride. This was his own island, and more importantly, he could sense everything within the space, as if it were a god, controlling everything within it.
Once Uchiha Kakuzan recovered from this feeling, he focused his attention on his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and began to carefully examine his eye techniques to see how far they had evolved and what enhancements they had received.
First came the eye technique—Takamagahara. The evolution of the Takamagahara eye technique expanded the entire space, and Uchiha Kakuzan's control over the space was greatly enhanced. If an enemy invaded the space, Uchiha Kakuzan could not only sense it, but also monitor the intruder's location at all times. Finally, he could not only expel the intruder, but also move it freely within the space, and use the power of space to fix the enemy in one place.
