Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 98-Awakening

In the pitch-black night sky, where the stars shine brightly.

A meteor trailed a long tail, its blue, phosphorescent comet-like tail drawing a long arc across the sky.

It was a star-studded spring night. Gazing up at the countless stars, Toshiro's weary soul seemed to return to the embrace of the earth.

The surrounding grass, trees, and soil, filled with the breath of nature, brought a touch of peace to his anxious soul.

Looking up at the night sky, I saw the dazzling Milky Way.

Toshiro's thoughts drifted back to that morning, to the moment he beheaded the bandit leader in order to save Uchiha Homura.

The opponent's head, flung away by his excessive force in the strike. And the headless corpse, still standing upright.

Bright red blood spurted out with a hissing sound from the severed neck. There was also the warm liquid that drenched his face and head, and the stench that filled his nostrils.

It was as if it were in slow motion, replaying frame by frame in Toshiro's mind, constantly impacting his soul.

Under the dark sky, a small figure sat beside the extinguished campfire.

Silently resisting the condemnation from the depths of one's own conscience.

Compared to Homura Uchiha and Tetsuya, who had lived in this ninja world since childhood, Toshiro, who had transmigrated here, seemed to find it harder to accept that he had become a murderer.

He has been suffering from insomnia since nightfall.

Unlike Yan and Zhe, they only tossed and turned in their sleeping bags for a while before falling asleep smoothly in the middle of the night.

Unable to fall asleep properly in his own sleeping bag, Toshiro reluctantly took over his companion's night watch duty ahead of schedule.

There was no way around it; as soon as he closed his eyes, the bloody scene would reappear in his mind.

It's like a curse, relentlessly haunting him!

In his previous life, he was born in a world that was generally peaceful. Although his country had its share of problems.

But the term "murderer," which is almost synonymous with evil, is far removed from him and his life.

In his memory, even when he went to the market, he would only see some vendors killing fish.

After transmigrating to this world, he knew that this day would come sooner or later. However, when that day actually arrived, the impact on him still far exceeded his expectations.

During the day it's alright; I can keep distracting myself by constantly finding things to do. This prevents my thoughts from becoming so focused, and thus, I don't keep thinking about those nauseating images!

But running away won't solve the problem, and he can only silently bear this bitter fruit alone under the dark night!

Looking up at the dark sky, I saw the Milky Way shining brightly, and the bright crescent moon in the sky.

Toshiro is reminiscing about his previous life!

My lover from my past life! My friends! Are they all doing well?

Fortunately, in her previous life, she was also an orphan. Her parents died early, and she never married or had children. Otherwise, with elderly parents and young children to care for, she didn't know how they would manage after she transmigrated!

Even so, those who silently supported me during my most difficult times...

I'm sorry! I really can't go back!

He let out a long sigh in his heart, and could only say this silently.

All I can do is disappoint their deep affection! I can only hope they can find someone better.

Ever since he realized he had transmigrated, Toshiro had been avoiding talking about his past life.

Whenever he is reminded of certain things by certain scenes, he will deliberately try to forget those scenes.

He truly felt ashamed of those who had placed high hopes on him!

But tonight, in this quiet night, under a sky full of stars, his thoughts were completely out of his control, uncontrollably recalling every little detail of the past.

My childhood was carefree because of my parents' company.

The boy, who suddenly lost the protection of his parents, seemed somewhat gloomy.

Young people who study diligently and strive to improve themselves in order to prove themselves.

And then there were the various joys and sorrows that followed after leaving that ivory tower.

Little by little, scene by scene, it all seemed as if it were happening again yesterday.

This made him feel even more depressed!

This also caused some unexpected changes in him.

"Toshiro! Your eyes!!!"

Uchiha Shigemasa, who was fast asleep in his sleeping bag, seemed to sense something.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes wide and looked in Toshiro's direction, almost unable to believe her eyes!

A flash of scarlet light passed through those eyes.

"Eye?"

He didn't notice it at first, but after the teacher reminded him, he seemed to realize that his field of vision was different from usual.

Extend your right hand and feel the lines on your palm, which are clearly visible even in low light.

He finally seemed to realize something!

It turns out he has awakened the bloodline limit that every ninja dreams of!

The Sharingan is a bloodline limit that represents the pinnacle of the ninja world and is what made the Uchiha clan famous.

On this night!

Awakening has occurred within him!

But deep down, he felt no joy, only an unusual sense of loss. This contrasted sharply with the unbridled excitement of Uchiha Shigemasa beside him!

[Is this the Sharingan? It truly is an eye steeped in blood and tears!]

Having uttered this thought, Toshiro looked at Uchiha Shigemasa, who was walking towards him. For a moment, he didn't know how to describe the turmoil in his heart!

"That's right! He has indeed awakened the Sharingan! And he opened it with double eyes! What an incredible talent!"

The term "double tomoe" refers to having two symmetrical tomoe Sharingan on the iris of the eye!

Contrary to his initial assumption, the Uchiha clan usually refers to the Sharingan using a different "Tomoe"!

There are "single tomoe", "double tomoe", and "straight tomoe" which corresponds to the Mangekyou Sharingan, etc.

It was completely different from the name he had originally thought it would be, such as "three-tomoe jade".

These were things he only learned after he came into this world, which surprised him quite a bit at the time.

For convenience, let's refer to the Sharingan as "Tomoe" from now on.
