Konoha: This Uchiha is going a bit too far.

Chapter 9: Mission Rewards and Three Magatama (Please continue reading)

Side Quest: Destroy the Iwagakure Supply Depot, causing unrest in Iwagakure (Completed)

[Rewards are being tallied]

The next day, in a desolate mountain cave.

As Yuuchi was using medical ninjutsu to heal his wounds, the system's voice sounded in his mind.

Upon hearing this sound, his dusty, sullen face finally softened a little.

Yesterday's surprise attack almost turned into a suicide attack.

Although he guessed that the warehouse might contain explosive tags or something similar, he deliberately ran away before releasing his fire jutsu.

However, if you walk by the river often, how can you avoid falling into the well?

He really didn't expect there to be so many inside!

Even though he activated his ultimate beforehand, he was still affected by the violent explosion and almost perished together with the Iwa ninja in the camp.

If it weren't for the numerous awards he had received over the years, which allowed him to survive the explosion...

And Kai and Aoba, who were still dazed from the explosion, came back and found him, and took him away.

Otherwise, if the pursuers behind him arrive ahead of time, he will become someone who brings a generous gift (Sharingan) to the enemy.

"However, the current situation is not good either."

Under his command, they are now fleeing towards the Kannabi Bridge.

Fortunately, Akai was in good health, and with Aoba as their guide, they managed to reach this place to rest after only a few battles.

However, they were pursued by a large number of people, and one can easily imagine what would happen if they were caught.

Iwagakure's attitude towards them now is, if not mutual support, then at least irreconcilable enmity.

Once captured, they won't even have the chance to emulate the French army, and they can even skip the Great Memory Restoration Technique.

Let's proceed to the final step—the flag sacrifice!

"But at least I managed to escape, and I'm quite versatile."

As she watched her wounds heal, Yuzhi nodded silently to herself.

Having spent so many years in the Land of Whirlpools, he has acquired quite a few abilities.

For example, Genma Shiranui's Thousand Clone Techniques, Kurenai Yuhi's talent for illusion techniques, and Yoh Aokiyama's Yin Release training, etc.

He also possesses talents in medical ninjutsu and lightning release, making him a truly all-around ninja.

"I wonder what the reward for this mission will be, but compared to the reward, the biggest gain is..."

Although Yuzhi was very interested in the reward, he knew even more clearly that the biggest gain for him this time was not the reward.

It was his eyes!

His Sharingan with two tomoe was already close to its limit, and even without the previous battle, it probably wouldn't have taken long.

However, the previous battles accelerated this process.

He could now clearly feel that his eyes seemed to have changed, and his system had also given him a notification!

[The Sharingan has currently brought the host's strength to its peak.]

[Activate the passive skill 'Exceptional' to improve performance?]

This is the information that Yuzhi most wants to see, and it's what he's currently longing for!

He endured so many years of hard work and persevered, and now it's finally paying off.

"The evolution of the Sharingan is not as simple as it seems."

Although he knew very well how to improve the Sharingan, knowing it was one thing, and being able to do it was another.

Just like a kaleidoscope, even the higher-ups of the Uchiha clan probably know how to activate it.

However, people's tolerance for stimulation varies, and killing one's loved ones might be the most effective way.

But once you know this secret and are determined to take action...

You already know the outcome, and you've already convinced yourself of it. Does that really still have any effect?

Obviously, this is impossible. Only when one is completely unaware can one experience the most extreme pain and stimulation!

"But this could also easily lead to people like Obito."

Haori shook her head at the thought of Obito.

Although Obito was officially whitewashed, just like Itachi Uchiha, Hagoromo really didn't like him.

Lin's death was indeed a tragedy, but after Lin's death, he only had one thought in his mind: "I want to create a world with Lin," and then he ignored everyone who had been kind to him.

How is this any different from Itachi Uchiha, that ingrate?

Minato Namikaze was a member of the Hokage faction, so it was impossible for him not to know the subtle relationship between the village and the Uchiha clan.

However, he did not refuse Obito because he was an Uchiha and a loser, and still accepted Obito. Perhaps he still wanted to change the relationship between the village and the Uchiha.

If we have to pinpoint the issue of Minato Namikaze being late, he was an elite Jonin of the village, and he already had a lot on his plate.

Moreover, their relationship was not only that of "master and apprentice" but also that of "superior and subordinate." How could he possibly protect his subordinate all the time?

Kushina Uzumaki took great care of Obito, encouraging him when he was down, cooking him rice balls during training, and reminding him to be careful when he went on missions.

Treating him like this, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him family, would it?

In the end, his "first sword strike after entering the sea was to kill his own family"?

"That's why improving the Sharingan isn't easy. Forcibly activating the Mangekyou Sharingan is even more risky, as it can easily produce ingrates and lunatics."

Yuzhi looked at his previously injured arm, which had almost fully recovered, and immediately withdrew his medical ninjutsu.

"Fortunately, I don't need to worry. I just need to work hard to accumulate strength!"

Activate "Exceptional Talent" to enhance the Sharingan.

In just a moment, Yuzhi felt a surge of power erupt within her body.

This power made his blood boil, and it also gathered in his eyes.

At that moment, he felt his body and eyes were constantly improving!

He seemed to feel his speed increasing and his chakra control becoming more precise.

His eyes uncontrollably turned crimson, and his original twin tomoe began to spin rapidly.

As it rotated, another tomoe split off from the two tomoe, appearing in his eyes in a triangular arrangement.

In that instant, he felt he could see more clearly, and his power became even stronger!

"Is this the power of the three-tomoe Sharingan?"

Feeling this power, Hagoromo was also very excited.

Many abilities that were unusable at the two-tomoe level can now be used with ease!

[Statistics Completed]

[Reward: Might Guy's Physical Talent]

What about Akai's physical fitness?

Yuzhi's eyes lit up slightly. He had always felt that Kai's greatest strength was actually his physical abilities!

If his body wasn't really tough enough, how could he have endured that training method that could be described as self-torture?

How can we bring the Eight Gates to their full potential and unleash the Evening Elephant and Night Guy techniques?

Although Haori's goal is not to become a muscle man, he does have his own goals.

With such a temporary physical condition, how could he not be happy?

"Haori, are you feeling better?"

Just as Haori was extremely excited, Kai suddenly walked in from outside.

He looked a little disheveled, but was full of energy, after all, Yuzhi had already treated him.

However, his expression was rather grave, indicating that his condition was not good.

"I'm fine. Has Iwagakure arrived?"

Upon seeing this, Yuzhi immediately understood what was happening, and Aoba, who had been sitting against the wall with her eyes closed, also opened her eyes.

"Yes, they must have found our trail, but they haven't pinpointed our location yet."

Ah Kai looked troubled and said in a low voice.

"I'm sorry, I was so careless."

"It has nothing to do with you. If it weren't for you, we might not even have made it here."

Yuzhi shook his head, offered a word of comfort to Kai, and then looked at Aoba.

Aoba didn't speak, but simply nodded slightly to indicate that she was fine.

"Let's leave here first, and then look for an opportunity later."

As he spoke, Yuzhi stood up, but before he could finish speaking, he stared into the distance, lost in thought.

Not only him, but Akai and Aoba also looked into the distance.

Because in the distant forest, a signal flare is slowly rising.

Just then, the system's voice suddenly rang in his mind.
