But he hadn't expected it to happen today—let alone under these circumstances, triggered by an attack from Uchiha Obito.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was completely different from his previous life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wonder what kind of ability his Mangekyō Sharingan has awakened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei pondered as he recalled the pattern in Shisui's eyes when he activated his Mangekyō.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every pair of Mangekyō Sharingan has its own unique design. If the patterns match, it usually means the eye abilities are the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After comparing Shisui's Mangekyō with his memories, Seimei confirmed that the design hadn't changed from what he remembered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which meant… it was highly likely that Shisui had still awakened Kotoamatsukami—the most powerful genjutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Seimei's heart tightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had locked eyes with Shisui for quite a while just now. Could it be that Shisui had already used Kotoamatsukami on him to alter his will?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought sent a chill down his spine, and he immediately focused on examining his own mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even now, he could still think about using Amanomi's power later to eliminate any potential mental manipulation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That alone was enough to reassure him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could still consider countermeasures, it meant his will had likely not been tampered with. And even if it had, he could still use his technique to undo it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, knowing Shisui's personality, he wasn't the type to use Kotoamatsukami recklessly, especially without reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the intense pressure from Shisui's Mangekyō just now...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was probably just him testing a theory, not an actual attempt to control him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei also understood that even though Kotoamatsukami was incredibly powerful, it still had a cost. Even if Shisui himself used it, the price would be slightly lower, but not nonexistent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, from the way Shisui activated and deactivated his Mangekyō, his condition hadn't changed significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That alone was enough to confirm that Shisui hadn't used the technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still… better safe than sorry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was where the Transcription Seal would come in handy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei had already made up his mind—once Shisui left, he would apply the Transcription Seal on himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the command within the seal?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would trigger two hours after meeting Shisui, forcing his Mangekyō Sharingan to activate and use Amanomi's power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That way, even if his will had been altered and he forgot about this precaution, the seal would automatically ensure he recovered in two hours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why two hours?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mainly because activating it immediately might cause unnecessary complications.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, having a two-hour buffer would allow him to gather more intelligence, ensuring that once he recovered, he could make a well-informed decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the chances of something like this happening were slim, Seimei wasn't about to take any risks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Shisui had finished recounting his experience and was now staring at Seimei with a serious expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seimei, you know who that person is, don't you? Tell me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei snapped out of his thoughts at Shisui's words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meeting his determined gaze, Seimei hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to deny it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then he remembered—he had specifically sent a shadow clone earlier to warn Shisui about potential danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then there was the part where Shisui described how the masked man lost interest and left after seeing him awaken his Mangekyō, saying, \"You're not him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with all this, Seimei found that he couldn't bring himself to lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, he had a good impression of Shisui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite his young age, Shisui was mature and composed in his actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From their brief conversation after the Chūnin Exams ambush to their encounters and collaborations on the battlefield, Shisui had consistently proven himself to be a trustworthy ally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coincidentally, Seimei needed someone to draw Obito's attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Obito had probably already deduced that the person he fought in the cemetery was Seimei, it wouldn't hurt to give him something else to focus on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Shisui was the perfect candidate for that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, that didn't mean Seimei was going to reveal everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito's identity was far too complicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't just about Uchiha Madara's resurrection—it was also deeply tied to Black Zetsu's \"Save Mother\" plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention, the Six Paths Sage's unseen influence still loomed in the background.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And within Konoha, Kakashi and Minato were directly connected to Obito as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei had no intention of stirring up that hornet's nest just yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he'd tell Shisui part of the truth—but not all of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that decision made, Seimei cleared his throat, drawing Shisui's attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can't tell you that right now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shisui opened his mouth to protest, but Seimei quickly raised a hand to stop him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's not that I don't want to tell you,\" he explained, \"but this goes far deeper than you realize. Right now, with your current strength, you're not qualified to get involved.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that Shisui still didn't fully grasp the gravity of the situation, Seimei added, \"Even with your newly awakened Mangekyō Sharingan—it's still not enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At those words, Shisui fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, he truly paused to think.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, he finally spoke again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what can you tell me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei considered this for a moment before replying, \"I'm sure you already have some suspicions about his identity, don't you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shisui nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He should be the same person the village has been searching for recently, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn't just a wild guess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito had exposed too much during his attack—his ability to phase through attacks and his teleportation technique both perfectly matched the village's reports on the unknown enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no way Shisui wouldn't make the connection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Seimei gave a small nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right—it's him. I was fighting him at the cemetery earlier.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was all he revealed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he added, \"But don't ask me for his real identity. I can only tell you that he's an Uchiha… and his goal is the Nine-Tails.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shisui shot to his feet in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first half of Seimei's statement didn't surprise him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since he saw the man's Sharingan, he had suspected he was an Uchiha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, even if someone else managed to obtain an Uchiha's Sharingan, they wouldn't be able to use it as naturally as this masked man did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just look at Kakashi—despite being a genius, he still struggled with the constant chakra drain from his single Sharingan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, Shisui had already accepted the fact that the masked man was an Uchiha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the second half of Seimei's words—his target is the Nine-Tails—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was what truly shocked him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As an elite Uchiha and one of the clan's most promising members, Shisui had access to a lot of intelligence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had long known that the village possessed the Nine-Tails, and that its Jinchūriki was none other than Kushina Uzumaki—the wife of the Hokage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, Seimei was telling him that this mysterious Uchiha was after the Nine-Tails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he succeeded, it wouldn't just be a disaster for the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless of whether this man was truly affiliated with the Uchiha Clan, the already fragile relationship between the Uchiha and Konoha would completely collapse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that was something Shisui absolutely could not allow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, an overwhelming killing intent radiated from him.\u003C\u002Fp>",1222,"2026-06-06T03:31:01.191Z",1,"novelbin.me","c18f550d50d679fb5a39eec7e13fb187192c0b9d2ed2448e3fcb853dfa54c90e","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-765","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-763",1097,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrind-is-my-ninja-way-cover.jpg"]
