Kiyoshi was very curious about what level his dōjutsu would reach when he awakened his Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
His dual Two-Tomoe Sharingan already gave him dōjutsu equivalent to an ordinary Uchiha's Three-Tomoe. Once awakened, it would likely far surpass the dōjutsu of a Three-Tomoe.
And if his dōjutsu was sufficient, he could theoretically use Susanoo.
Susanoo is essentially the materialization of massive chakra.
It's similar to a Jinchuriki using "Tailed Beast Full Transformation," where a large amount of chakra envelops them, resulting in various forms to maintain stability.
Of course, this definition is somewhat vague.
Because the official data book states that Susanoo is for those who can unleash the power of the "Mangekyō Sharingan" to its fullest potential.
However, in the manga, Indra was able to activate "Complete Body Susanoo" with just the Three-Tomoe.
The fleeting appearance of a pair of spiral-patterned Mangekyō Sharingan in the anime was changed to a hexagonal pattern like Sasuke's.
As for whether he actually had the Mangekyō Sharingan, it remains a mystery.
"Perhaps I'm embarking on the path of atavism?"
Kiyoshi mused.
It was as if he was getting closer to the ancient Ōtsutsuki.
The current chakra power system in the ninja world was brought about by Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, hence she is revered as the "Progenitor of Chakra."
Without her, humans might have been ruled by those ninja beasts.
People in the past also had chakra in their bodies, but they didn't know how to use it. It was the Sage of Six Paths who spread his chakra seeds everywhere, allowing others to learn to use chakra to connect people's hearts, thus creating "Ninjutsu Sect."
This was the first ninja organization.
However, Uchiha's ancestor Indra never showed any signs of blindness; he used his eyes all the time.
The later Uchiha clan, after thousands of years of development, had increasingly mixed bloodlines. To the point where even the Sharingan could only be awakened by a minority of the clan, and awakening the Mangekyō was like applying a blindness buff.
As dōjutsu gradually increases, the eyesight gradually weakens.
It's as if the eyeballs can't withstand this dōjutsu. Only by fusing the eyes of a blood relative can one avoid the fate of blindness.
"I just don't know if awakening the Mangekyō will turn it into the Eternal Mangekyō, or if it will just make me blind?"
Kiyoshi pondered, stroking his chin.
The worst-case scenario is blindness, but with the Item System, it shouldn't be a big problem.
The better the physical fitness, the longer it should last, which is enough time for Kiyoshi to figure out a solution.
The only question is how many Mangekyō dōjutsu he will have.
Four?
After all, one of his eyes is worth two ordinary Uchiha eyes.
"Lord Fugaku, what ninjutsu did you just use?"
Minato Namikaze looked at Fugaku Uchiha.
Kiyoshi and the others were only clearing the perimeter.
He and Horikawa Uchiha went to support the center of the battlefield.
Fugaku's expression was somewhat dazed, and he didn't answer Minato Namikaze's question immediately.
"It's an Uchiha secret technique, right?"
Hiashi Hyūga said uncertainly.
Fugaku suddenly became emotional after seeing a clansman die, and the fluctuation of his chakra suddenly increased.
They only knew that the Mist ninja opposite him suddenly exploded.
Because the speed was too fast, they could only see what looked like a ball of chakra crushing him.
"That's right, it's a secret technique."
Fugaku's scarlet Three-Tomoe eyes looked at Minato Namikaze and Hiashi Hyūga.
His most capable and trusted comrade died at the hands of the Mist.
Excessive pain and stimulation made him feel a new power.
After subconsciously using that power, Fugaku immediately concealed it.
If he guessed correctly, that was the "Mangekyō Sharingan" recorded only in the Uchiha clan's ancient texts!
"A secret technique?"
Hiashi Hyūga muttered.
Most Uchiha ninjas are elite from the same period, yet they also possess such powerful secret techniques.
This clan is truly not to be underestimated.
"I see."
Minato Namikaze nodded.
Kiyoshi looked up at this scene from afar, a smile on his face.
"It seems the storyline has changed, and Fugaku has been seen through a bit."
Kiyoshi thought to himself.
《Itachi Shinden》 says that Fugaku's Mangekyō Sharingan was awakened during the Third Shinobi World War.
It must have been because his comrade died.
After Danzō Shimura finds out, he will definitely put pressure on the Uchiha, condemning the Uchiha for not taking it out during the last Shinobi World War.
But once it's revealed, the Konoha upper echelons will immediately realize that it's "Susanoo."
The Konoha upper echelons, who are afraid at that time, will suppress the Uchiha even more.
This is also conducive to his later plans.
He was worrying about how to get on Madoka's line, but now it's like a pillow being sent when he's sleepy.
"Lord Fugaku, Lord Minato, the rest of the Mist forces are starting to flee."
Kiyoshi pointed in one direction.
"That's it for today."
Fugaku exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.
He could feel a constant stream of new power emerging from his body.
But he was not in a good mood and just wanted to retrieve his comrade's body and bury it properly after returning.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Minato Namikaze said.
Hiashi Hyūga curiously looked at Kiyoshi.
This is Kiyoshi, who has recently gained a reputation as a genius in the village.
It is said that his talent is even above Sakumo Hatake's son, Kakashi.
After the battlefield was cleaned up, the group began to retreat, leaving only ninjas in charge of guarding and reconnaissance.
… … … …
"Damn it, the Yellow Flash is too troublesome!"
Raiga Kurosuki endured the pain while a medical ninja bandaged him.
"After all, that's the Second Hokage's space-time ninjutsu."
Yuri Ringo looked at Raiga Kurosuki, who had many bandages on his body, and wondered what reason she should use to lure him out.
"Did you go to raid the Uchiha?"
Mei Terumi asked.
She only arrived at this battlefield today.
"That's right, I even saw Uchiha Kiyoshi, whom you can't forget."
Yuri Ringo said playfully.
"Hmph."
Mei Terumi snorted coldly.
That's really unforgettable.
She would wake up in fright in the middle of the night, dreaming about what Kiyoshi did to her.
Every time she woke up, Mei Terumi would lift the blanket as soon as possible to check if her pants were wet with sweat.
"I'll settle the score with him sooner or later."
… … … …
Another place.
Lightning Country, Kumogakure.
A blonde woman with braids respectfully listened to the Third Raikage's instructions.
"Yes, Third Raikage, I will lead a team of Kumogakure to raid the Land of Fire and take Uchiha Kiyoshi back at the right time."
