Orochimaru's intentions were simple.

Since Uchiha Kagami already possessed those eyes, he had likely amassed considerable experience in using them.

As a fellow Uchiha, Kagami could provide Kaien with valuable insights.

Besides, Tsunade had already pestered him several times over the past few hours, urging him to write a letter to Hiruzen.

Orochimaru was growing increasingly irritated by her nagging, so he decided to act now—if only to get some peace and quiet.

"Another evolution?"

"Beyond the level of the three tomoe?"

Orochimaru's expression shifted as understanding dawned. He hadn't seen a higher level of the Sharingan himself, but he understood why Namikaze Minato was worried.

Back when Kaien had first awakened the single tomoe, he was already struggling with the burden of his bloodline. And now, just a few short years later, his Sharingan had evolved to a level most Uchiha couldn't hope to reach in a lifetime.

Even Oroch...

Uchiha Kaien had no idea what the other three were thinking. He could only rely on the rise in affection points to gauge their feedback—and it was clearly positive, especially from Namikaze Minato.

He quickly refocused on the battle.

The dynamic vision and insight granted by the Mangekyō Sharingan far surpassed that of the standard three-tomoe version.

His chakra surged once again, like a wellspring with no end in sight.

Kaien was gradually getting used to the sensa...

On a hill not far from the battlefield…

Several White Zetsu were watching in surprise as Uchiha Kaien suddenly erupted into action.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. That kid's gotten even more terrifying. His fighting style just keeps evolving."

"Forget that—shouldn't the real shocker here be that he awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan?"

"Well, he was always eligible to awaken it."

"Sure, but isn't it a little early for that? He's not even eleven yet, right?"

One of the...

The perspective returns to Uchiha Kaien.

Kaien remained sharply attuned to the changing tides of the battlefield, especially the space between him and Namikaze Minato, while still fending off three puppets of his own.

Minato and Senju jonin were each entangled with two puppets, while the three puppets originally meant to deploy the technique were still locked in a struggle with Nawaki. The battle was chaotic, but Minato and Nawaki were clearly having the roughest time.

...

Chiyo's fingers moved deftly, commanding three puppets to form a triangle formation in front of her. The clattering of gears echoed as the puppets—"Buddha," "Dharma," and "Monk"—shifted into position, each mechanical joint clicking into place.

Suddenly, a violent whirlwind tore through the battlefield. A powerful suction force surged forth, forcing the group to channel chakra into their feet, anchoring themselves more firmly to the ground.

But to Chiyo, their resistance was fu...

Despite being well past her prime, Chiyo still managed to fend off the combined assault of Uchiha Kaien and Namikaze Minato using only her taijutsu.

The continuous melee exchanges steadily drained the stamina of all three.

Watching this unfold, Minato felt the pressure mount. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead.

In terms of strength, chakra reserves, and combat experience, he was clearly outclassed. Only his speed allowed him to keep up with Chiyo's tempo.

If not for...

"It's too late to retreat now."

Uchiha Kaien held the phantom beast in his arms, his tone low and grim.

Based on the beast's sensing, a chakra presence on par with Orochimaru's was now just five hundred meters away.

For a shinobi, five hundred meters could be covered in an instant—especially for someone of that caliber.

The sea of flames created by Kaien's Fire Style was abruptly torn open. From within the smoke and blaze, a figure emerged.

"Wind Blade?"

...

081 Executing the Moon Eye Plan

Fire-natured chakra surged rapidly in Uchiha Kaien's throat. The moment he began forming his technique, Namikaze Minato quickly reached out and stopped Nawaki, who had been about to charge forward to assist.

"Kaien's still the same… Always using his chakra advantage to clear the battlefield fast."

Minato wiped the sweat from his brow. Behind every technique Kaien had mastered, there was his own shadow.

Every time Kaien learned a new jutsu, Minato was inevitably the first "...

Crack—

A sharp, clean sound echoed out as the shell began to split. Uchiha Kaien's eyes glinted with a strange light.

So infusing chakra actually worked... Is it about to hatch?

Quickly, Kaien placed the snake egg into the crater Namikaze Minato had just blasted open with a Rasengan. He even laid out a picnic cloth underneath it, shielding the newborn snake from the perpetually damp climate of the Land of Rain.

The cracking shell soon gave way completely. A ...

"How's life as a genin treating you, Minato?"

Jiraiya chose to start with small talk, hoping to get a feel for his student's daily life before diving into the real questions.

"Every day's been pretty fulfilling, Jiraiya-sensei. Ever since Lord Sakumo left on a mission, Kaien and I have been training under Kagami-sensei to gain more experience..."

Namikaze Minato kept it short and to the point so Jiraiya could follow along more easily.

It wasn't until Uchiha Kaien was a...

"If no one corrects that snake, it'll only get more arrogant, won't it? In the face of the Sharingan, it's nothing more than my toy."

Uchiha Kaien didn't say anything more, but the implication was clear to everyone.

A toy is only cherished when it's needed. Once it's no longer useful, it's nothing more than a lifeless object.

Right now, Manda was Kaien's toy—completely under his control. Once summoned, the giant serpent would have no will of its own. If Kaien told it to go...

189 Naruto: Yagura Karatachi

The trio quickened their pace.

As the sun dipped below the horizon in the late afternoon desert sky, Yagura finally arrived at the outer perimeter of Sunagakure.

The Land of Wind's geography was flat, open desert—completely defenseless terrain with no natural barriers.

During their respective tenures, previous Kazekage had built defense projects aimed toward major potential enemy routes. One of them was this—Thread of Heaven.

The towering sand wall, over twenty met...

All three of them were strong shinobi.

And with the second round of the Chūnin Exams set to begin in just three days, time was tight.

No passenger boats this time. 

In other words—they ran on foot.

Dry running is boring for shinobi.

So they decided to spice things up with some wet gossip.

Yagura, ever the warm-hearted type, casually checked in on his subordinate and friend's love life.

"Hey, Kisame, how are things going with your girlfriend la...

120 Naruto: Awaken the Tenseigan

Jiraiya trailed behind the group, his expression somewhat distant, lost in thought. He couldn't understand how his once kind-hearted students had turned out that way.

"Yahiko… Nagato… Konan…"

He snapped back to reality with a quiet sigh. His mind drifted to the time he met Naruto, and how firm the boy's belief in becoming Hokage had been—how deeply he loved the village.

"Maybe… that's what Nagato and the others were missing…" Jiraiya muttered under his breath. 2025-04-24 05:06:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Everyone was quietly considering the credibility of Hyuga Gakuya's theory.

Suddenly, Jiraiya broke the silence.

"Hold on... I once had a student who awakened the Rinnegan, but he was an Uzumaki. How do you explain that?"

Gakuya fell silent, thinking for a long moment before finally responding.

"That part... I honestly don't know. But are you absolutely sure what you saw were the Rinnegan, Lord Jiraiya?"

Everyone turned their eyes to Jiraiya, puzzled. If someone i...

The next day.

When Hyuga Hiashi suddenly showed up at his door, Mirai was a bit surprised.

"Clan Head Hiashi, what brings you here?"

Hiashi smiled warmly. "Lord Mirai, you helped Hinata awaken the Tenseigan, proving the true power of the Byakugan. I came here specifically to thank you."

Mirai waved it off. "No need to be so formal. Hinata is my student—it was nothing more than a small favor."

Hiashi nodded. "Of course, of course. For someone li...

Kurenai Yuhi looked at Mirai and asked,

"Mirai, what did she just call you?"

"Master?"

Mirai nodded lightly and said, "That's right. From now on, she'll be my maid. If any of you need her assistance, don't hesitate to ask."

Everyone—Kurenai included—stared at him, dumbfounded.

Mirai had actually made the progenitor of chakra, the legendary Rabbit Goddess of myth, his personal maid…

This… this was beyond absurd!

199 I Became a Jonin

Inside the control room of the Sky Ninja's fortress, Ancor Vantian—

After Yamanaka Shinno left a Flying Thunder God marker behind, Namikaze Minato, who had been waiting outside the tropical rainforest for a while, instantly activated his Mass Flying Thunder God teleportation technique.

In the blink of an eye, nearly a hundred members of the Hokage's personal ANBU unit, seventy-plus elite combat squads from the Foundation, the second squad of the Analysis Division, the first squa...

Above a dense stretch of primeval forest—

A giant hawk with broad wings cut swiftly through the humid, rainforest-like airspace.

Tsunade sat cross-legged on its back, her face stormy with anger, while Yamanaka Shinno stood behind her, constantly scanning the vast forest spread out below.

After returning to Konoha, he had already studied the chakra flow pathways around the eyes of every member of the Hyuga clan.

Through repeated experiments and practice, his Byakugan ...

197 I Became a Jonin

Yamanaka Shinno honestly didn't mind either option.

If everyone decided on the first plan, then they'd quickly eliminate the White Zetsu threat and annex Kirigakure. That would reduce the risk of the Otsutsuki Clan discovering them too soon.

After that, they could gradually cultivate new administrative talent to replace the current daimyō, and build proper governing institutions.

Eventually, they'd bring the Five Great Nations—Fire, Wind, Lightning, Water, and Earth—alo...

Under Jiraiya's guidance, Namikaze Minato meticulously followed each step of the summoning contract process.

He had been envious of Kaien's Phantom Beast for a while now. In its resting state, it looked like a regular black cat with sharp sensory abilities—but in battle, it transformed like magic into a sleek, pitch-black panther. Too cool for words.

"Ah!"

"Ugh—"

"Mmm..."

"Gah..."

Uchiha Kaien and his group stood in silence as they stepped into the Konohagakure encampment, their eyes falling on the wounded shinobi resting inside the base.

It was only upon arriving that the truth hit them—earning merit on the battlefield came at a heavy price. Injuries, sometimes crippling, were the inevitable cost. The weak could only cling to life, barely hanging on.

Some had lost limbs, others were poisoned, and m...

The next morning.

Uchiha Kaien was still curled up under the blankets, basking in the morning sunlight streaming through the window. The golden rays lit up the fine fuzz on his cheeks, giving his face a soft, warm glow that made him look incredibly peaceful.

His legs were tucked up in a familiar sleeping pose that made Namikaze Minato smile to himself.

He always sleeps like this, huh? That smooth skin, glowing under the sunlight... It really makes him look e...

Another year passed quietly.

The Second Great Ninja War had fully erupted. The Five Great Villages were now locked in battles on multiple fronts.

Kirigakure had unexpectedly gone into full isolation. Even the Root agents sent by Shimura Danzō had come back empty-handed—and at great cost. The message was clear: Kirigakure had no intention of joining the conflict. They were playing their own game.

Due to the difficult terrain of the Land of Water, the other...

As he thought about the new purple trait he'd just obtained, Uchiha Kaien couldn't help but recall his very first purple item—the Dan Heng template.

That thing had also been slowly unlocking over time. But honestly, the progress was sluggish. So far, aside from granting him wind-nature chakra, the most valuable function it had was helping him learn spear intent, which allowed him to suppress his boiling spirit energy.

Now that he'd mastered the technique to suppress his...

The sound of grilled meat crackling on the oiled paper filled the air, releasing an irresistible aroma of seared fat that wafted into everyone's nose.

The six of them were seated in an orderly fashion. The extended grill gave everyone plenty of room to enjoy the experience comfortably.

They sat across from one another—Uchiha Mikoto and Uzumaki Kushina side by side, with Senju Nawaki on the outer edge. Across from them were Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Kaie...

It's worth mentioning that Uchiha Kaien had never actually met Uchiha Mikoto before.

His daily routine was simple and repetitive, which meant he rarely came across anything new. And honestly, the affection he gained just from being classmates was already enough for him to harvest.

There was no need to run around aimlessly every day. For Kaien, collecting affection was just something that happened naturally—he never went out of his way to engage with people just to squeeze out a ...

Although he'd been threatened, Minato still couldn't help but struggle a little.

There was a kimono in Kaien's courtyard. Judging by the size and style, it fit Kaien's body perfectly—and it had been freshly laundered.

Which could only mean one thing: Kaien had worn it.

And not long ago, either.

So when exactly had that happened?

Namikaze Minato fell into a mental whirlwind, trying to piece it together. After thinking it through, he concluded it must have been a...
