"Please hold on, host. As long as you persevere, there is hope. Please hold on, host. As long as you persevere, there is hope..."
Uchiha Kakuzan heard the system notifications constantly ringing in his mind, as if the system itself was getting anxious. He couldn't help but mentally complain.
"Useless system, I can't even last five minutes, can't you be faster?"
Uchiha Kakuyama felt everything go dark before his eyes, his consciousness slowly slipping away, plunging into an abyss. The system's voice still echoed in his ears.
Just then, Uchiha Kakuyama heard a voice that seemed to resound throughout his entire world, tearing through the darkness and bringing a ray of light.
"Izanagi"
When Uchiha Kakuzan came to his senses, he found himself still sitting at the table, with Uchiha Fugaku next to him drinking tea. It was as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.
The only difference from before was that there was a katana next to the table, as if someone had carelessly discarded it, and next to Uchiha Fugaku, there was a person lying down, as if he had fallen asleep.
Uchiha Kakuyama touched his body and found that his wounds were gone. He knew that this might be related to Uchiha Fugaku, so he looked at him.
Fugaku Uchiha placed the teacup on the table and looked at Okayama Uchiha.
"This is the power of 'Izanagi,' which can change any fate that is unfavorable to oneself according to one's own will. Just now, Mikoto saw that I was under your control and thought that if she killed you, I could break free from your control. In fact, she did not know that even if she killed you, my consciousness had already changed and I would still be unable to break free from your control."
"I'm so sorry, because of Mikoto's recklessness, she almost killed you. So, I knocked her unconscious and used 'Izanagi' to change everything."
Upon hearing Fugaku Uchiha's explanation, Uchiha Kakuzan touched his chest in lingering fear. It was right there that the katana had pierced through him.
Uchiha Kazuyama calmed himself down and began to think of a solution. Now, Uchiha Mikoto knew that he had controlled Uchiha Fugaku. However, as the wife of the Uchiha clan head and the mother of the Uchiha genius Uchiha Itachi, it would be too conspicuous for Mikoto to suddenly disappear. But if he didn't make Mikoto disappear, how could he ensure that the news of his control over the clan head wouldn't get out?
Just then, Fugaku Uchiha suddenly said:
"Lord Qiushan, can you still use the eye technique that controlled me just now? If so, I hope you can use it on Mikoto. That way, the news that I'm being controlled by you won't get out, which would be beneficial to you and prevent your clan and the higher-ups of Konoha from being wary of you."
Upon hearing Fugaku Uchiha's words, Okayama Uchiha nodded in agreement. In fact, in Okayama's mind, the remaining 'Kotoamatsukami' had another purpose.
However, looking at the slender and beautiful Uchiha Mikoto lying there, Uchiha Kakuzan could only console himself in his heart.
"It seems there's no other way but to use 'Kotoamatsukami' on Mikoto. I have no other options."
As he thought about it, Uchiha Kakuyama walked towards Uchiha Mikoto.
Chapter 13 The Uchiha's Way Out
Chapter Thirteen: The Uchiha's Way Out
The Uchiha clan has always been known for producing handsome men and beautiful women, and Uchiha Mikoto was a famous beauty in the Uchiha clan back then. Although she is now over thirty years old, time has not left too many marks on her; instead, she has gained a more mature charm.
In order to prevent the news of Uchiha Fugaku being controlled from spreading, Uchiha Kakuzan had no other choice but to control Uchiha Mikoto as well.
Qiu Shan lifted Uchiha Mikoto from the tatami mat and used his right hand to use the Palm Healing Technique to wake her from her unconscious state.
When Mikoto Uchiha woke up and opened her eyes, still a little dazed, she was confronted by Uchiha Okazan's Mangekyou Sharingan.
Before Mikoto Uchiha could even understand what was happening, Okazan Uchiha activated Kotoamatsukami. A special power silently and forcefully invaded her brain, changing Mikoto's thoughts and will, making her obey Okazan's orders from then on. In the end, Mikoto was controlled by Okazan Uchiha.
Uchiha Kazuyama slowly deactivated his Mangekyou Sharingan. At that moment, Uchiha Mikoto regained consciousness. Upon seeing Kazuyama, she immediately scrambled to her feet, no longer shouting threats at him, but instead kneeling on the ground and bowing her head to him.
"I am very sorry, Lord Qiushan. I was rude just now and caused you harm. Please forgive my rudeness." Her voice was full of fear.
Uchiha Kakuzan watched as Mikoto lowered her head, seemingly unwilling to raise it without his permission and forgiveness. He couldn't help but feel extremely satisfied with the 'Kotoamatsukami' eye technique.
In the original work, Uchiha Shisui's Kotoamatsukami ability was so powerful, but it wasn't used in the right places. One of his abilities was used by Shimura Danzo at the Five Kage Summit, and he was exposed in front of everyone. Another was used to help Uchiha Itachi's Edo Tensei escape control. It feels like although it had some effect, it was used for trivial matters.
In this world where talk-no-jutsu is the best, if you want to avoid being betrayed, you'll naturally have to use 'Kotoamatsukami'.
Seeing that Mikoto Uchiha was still kneeling with her head bowed, and Fugaku Uchiha beside her remained silent, showing no intention of pleading for her, Uchiha Kakuzan had no choice but to tell Mikoto to get up.
"Get up. It's not your fault. We have different positions, so it's inevitable. You must work hard for me in the future. I'll forgive you this time."
Upon hearing Uchiha Kakuyama's words, Mikoto finally raised her head, which had been bowed, and the tears that had been welling up in her eyes finally fell.
"Thank you, my lord. I will do my utmost to complete your mission, even at the cost of my life."
Seeing Uchiha Mikoto's tearful face, even the hard-hearted Qiu Shan couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. He had no choice but to change the subject.
"Where did Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke go?" With Uchiha Mikoto as a cautionary tale, Qiu Shan felt it necessary to investigate these unstable factors. If Uchiha Itachi had noticed any clues, given his intelligence, he would be a huge security threat to Uchiha Qiu Shan.
Upon hearing Qiu Shan mention Itachi and Sasuke, Uchiha Mikoto, as their mother, couldn't help but soften her expression.
"Reporting to you, sir, Itachi has received a mission and has left the village for the past few days. As for Sasuke, he is sleeping in his bedroom."
Hearing that his most cherished friend, Uchiha Itachi, had gone out on a mission, Qiu Shan breathed a huge sigh of relief. As long as Itachi wasn't home, he was confident that he wouldn't notice anything amiss when Itachi returned.
As for Sasuke, Qiu Shan was quite at ease with his age and talent, believing that nothing would go wrong.
Now that things are more or less settled and there's no one left who can stop Uchiha Kagami, it's time to get down to business.
Uchiha Kakuzan had Fugaku and Mikoto sit down and began a formal conversation with the clan head.
"Clan Chief, do you know why I used my eye technique to control you?"
Fugaku Uchiha shook his head.
"I'm not entirely sure, but if an ambitious person possesses a pupil technique like Lord Qiushan's, then it's understandable that he would use the power of that technique to control leaders or people of high status."
Upon hearing Fugaku Uchiha's words, Okayama Uchiha shook his head. Although Fugaku Uchiha was now under his command, Okayama still explained things to him clearly.
“Chieftain, my interest has always been in pursuing power and various methods to enhance it, not in pursuing authority. If I hadn’t been completely desperate, I wouldn’t have risked trying to control you and the chieftain’s wife.”
Uchiha Kakuzan pointed to his eyes and said meaningfully:
"My eyes can see much farther than yours."
Fugaku Uchiha wasn't stupid either; as if he had thought of something, he blurted out...
"Can your eyes see the future?"
Qiu Shan nodded: "Pretty much, able to see fragments of the future."
Then, he recounted to Fugaku what he had previously told Uchiha Shisui: Shisui's tragic death and the annihilation of the Uchiha clan.
Upon hearing Qiushan's words, Fugaku Uchiha could not believe that such a thing could happen in the future. He sat there in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.
"Was what I did wrong? Should I not have gotten close to the Third Hokage and Konoha? Should I have done what the Grand Elder did and intensified the conflict with Konoha in order to protect the Uchiha clan?"
Fugaku Uchiha was somewhat lost about the future of the Uchiha clan and didn't know what to do. He firmly believed that as long as the rift between the Uchiha and Konoha could be bridged, the Uchiha clan would eventually be able to fully integrate into Konoha.
Seeing that Uchiha Fugaku had gotten himself into a dead end, Uchiha Kakuzan couldn't help but shake his head.
"It was wrong from the very beginning. Do you know who has always been in power in Konoha?"
"Of course I know. Konoha has always been ruled by the Hokage lineage—the First, Second, and Third Hokage. Our Uchiha clan has never held power," Fugaku Uchiha replied.
“Yes, it has always been the Hokage lineage.” Uchiha Kakuyama nodded.
"Do you know who's in charge of Konoha now? It's the Second Hokage's disciple, the Third Hokage, and Danzo Shimura. They've inherited the Second Hokage's will and are constantly on guard against us, isolating us. As long as they're in power, the Uchiha will never have a chance to rise."
Fugaku Uchiha quickly asked, "Then what should we do?"
"There are two ways. One is to leave Konoha and have our Uchiha clan establish our own village. That way, there won't be any problems."
"The second method is to stall, to stall as long as possible, until my eye technique's cooldown is over, then we can control the higher-ups of Konoha, or control the people below. That way, we'll be in charge of Konoha, and it won't be us being isolated, but us isolating others."
Chapter 14 Uchiha Mikoto
Chapter Fourteen: Uchiha Mikoto
In fact, Uchiha Kakuzan knew very well that everything else was secondary. The most important thing was to improve his own strength. Once he reached the level of Kage or Six Paths, he could easily suppress anyone who dared to challenge him, without having to care about other people's opinions.
Just then, the system, which had been useless in the crucial moment, finally spoke up.
"Congratulations, host. You have completed learning and digesting the pupil technique 'Illusion - Momentary Time and Space'."
Congratulations, host. You have completed learning and digesting the eye technique 'Izanagi'.
The host's Mangekyou Sharingan side effects have been further reduced, and the usage time has increased again. The Mangekyou Sharingan has been enhanced. Please understand the specific details yourself.
"Ding, it has been detected that the host's Mangekyou Sharingan has been enhanced. The development time of the host's own Mangekyou Sharingan eye technique has been advanced and is expected to be completed in 8 hours. Please wait patiently."
Hearing this, Uchiha Kakuzan was quite happy. Although he still had to wait, his unique eye technique was about to be unveiled.
Next, Uchiha Kakuzan immediately began to examine the eye techniques he had just acquired: 'Illusion - Momentary Time and Space' and 'Izanagi'.
Uchiha Kakuzan had high expectations for 'Izanagi,' a forbidden technique of the Uchiha clan, a forbidden technique capable of rewriting fate and reversing cause and effect. He never expected that Uchiha Fugaku, who had kept a low profile, would unleash such a powerful technique.
After reviewing it, Uchiha Kakuzan was quite satisfied. Although the power of 'Izanagi' hadn't been increased, its cooldown time had been shortened. Compared to Uchiha Fugaku's ability to use it once a month, Kakuzan's 'Izanagi,' after systematic learning and assimilation, and with the enhancement of Kakuzan's far more powerful Mangekyou Sharingan, allowed him to use it once every three days, greatly enhancing its practicality.
The cooldown time for the eye technique 'Illusion - Momentary Time and Space' is gone. As long as you have enough chakra, you can use it on a whole group of kids.
Furthermore, because Uchiha Kakuzan copied and learned the Mangekyou Sharingan from Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Fugaku, his Mangekyou Sharingan was much more powerful than that of ordinary Mangekyou Sharingan after he absorbed it.
It is estimated that once his Mangekyou Sharingan develops its full potential, it will reach the limit of what the Mangekyou Sharingan can possess (other people's Mangekyou Sharingan can only have one eye with one eye technique, but Uchiha Kazuyama has three eye techniques in one eye). At that time, Uchiha Kazuyama's Mangekyou Sharingan will reach its peak, and he can then plan and search for a way to achieve the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
Although Uchiha Kakuzan's eyes have not yet reached the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, his observation, copying, and genjutsu abilities far surpass those of ordinary Mangekyou Sharingan.
After reviewing the system's information about the Mangekyou Sharingan, Uchiha Kakuyama looked at the Uchiha Fugaku couple who were still waiting for him, and then gave them instructions.
"Clan leader, we only have these two directions now. Moreover, even if we Uchiha want to leave Konoha, it's not an easy thing. We have to take it slowly. We can secretly relocate some of the clan members to establish a small village and have Uchiha Shisui lead people to guard it. This will also ensure the safety of the clan members."
The most important thing now is to appease the clansmen. I've already spoken to the First Elder, and he agreed to be patient with me for the next few years until I grow stronger. By then, my strength will reach the peak of the Kage level, or even the Super Kage level. At that point, even if we can't control the Third Hokage and the others, whether they want to stay or leave will be up to us.
In fact, in the original work, Uchiha Shisui trusted the Third Hokage too much, telling him about his eye techniques. The Third Hokage then told Danzo, who set a trap for him, leading to Shisui's complete destruction before he could fully grow up.
Itachi Uchiha was utterly misled by the Third Hokage's Will of Fire, believing he was doing everything for the village. He failed to consider that with his family and clan gone, everything he cherished lost, was the village still his? What did its existence matter to him? In the end, only his poor little brother remained in the village as a hostage.
After discussing the future development of the Uchiha clan with Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Kakuzan finally felt relieved. As long as the Uchiha clan did not encounter any major accidents, they should not be wiped out.
Having finished his business, Uchiha Kakuyama relaxed. He felt that although the process of taking this risk to control the clan leader was full of twists and turns and he almost died, the gains were gratifying. Not only did he control Uchiha Fugaku and his wife and bring the Uchiha clan under his control, but he also gained two good eye techniques. This mission can be said to have been successfully completed.
Just as Uchiha Kazuyama was about to leave, he was stopped by Uchiha Fugaku and his wife. It was already late at night, and even if Uchiha Kazuyama went back, he would be alone. As the clan head, Uchiha Fugaku might not have much else, but his house was the largest in the Uchiha clan's territory, so there was no problem with Uchiha Kazuyama staying overnight.
Uchiha Kakuzan lay in the other bedroom. Although it was almost midnight, he couldn't fall asleep at all. He hadn't felt it before, but now, in the quiet of the night, he felt a sense of unease.
He had been too reckless, coming here unprepared. This was the closest he had ever come to death. The feeling of helplessness, fear, and his gradually fading consciousness as he fell into the abyss was something Uchiha Kakuyama would never forget for the rest of his life.
Uchiha Kakuyama secretly reminded himself that he must be fully prepared in the future, as his life was the most important thing and priceless.
Just as Uchiha Okayama turned over and was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard someone approaching the door. He immediately became alert. At this moment, only Uchiha Fugaku and his wife and Uchiha Sasuke were in the house. He had already subdued Fugaku and his wife, and Sasuke was still a little kid who posed no threat to him.
However, Qiu Shan remained vigilant: "Who is it?"
The visitor was surprised that Uchiha Kakuyama had discovered her before she even knocked, and paused for a moment before answering:
"Lord Qiu, it is I. It is already past midnight. You must be hungry. I will bring you some food."
Uchiha Okayama was relieved to hear that it was Uchiha Mikoto and opened the door.
Uchiha Mikoto stood gracefully at the door, holding a tray full of food. She wore a thin kimono that accentuated her curves. Perhaps because the clothes were so thin, two small nipples were faintly visible in the front. When she saw Uchiha Okayama looking at her, Mikoto blushed, and her eyes seemed to sparkle like stars.
