Chapter 393: Informing of Intent

On Lian Ye's suggestion, Tuan Cang led the Anbu to leave the village under cover of night.

Uchiha Jing, who had just awakened in the Muye Yiyuan, was taken as a conscript before he could figure out the situation.

With two pairs of Kaleidoscope Sharingan, even if Whirlpool Country were simultaneously besieged by the ThreeKingdoms, they would still have the power for a battle.

They aren't scared at all.

Qianshou Feijian, who was conducting experiments in the Laboratory, was stunned.

Why did these kids suddenly leave the village in the middle of the night?

Could it be that a border clash broke out?!

Although he didn't know exactly what happened, he knew a few people could handle it well.

That kid wouldn't do anything without certainty…

"Lian Ye, what exactly happened?"

Uchiha Jing shook his drowsy head, his face showing confusion.

Just a short time after waking, Tuan Cang led the Anbu and escorted him out.

In that instant, he reflected on his deeds over the years and found no illegal or disorderly acts!

Could it be that Tuan Cang is interested in his eyes?

Later he realized that wasn't the case; Tuan Cang seemed to want to take him out of the village.

But where exactly they were headed remained unknown.

"Whirlpool Country," Lian Ye explained. "My Kaleidoscope Sharingan can foresee the future and has seen that Whirlpool Country will be annihilated during this period."

"Annihilation?!" a horrified look flashed in Uchiha Jing's eyes.

He wasn't surprised by Lian Ye's ability to foresee the future.

Awakening the Kaleidoscope Sharingan grants two powerful eye techniques, and possessing the ability to foresee the future is unsurprising.

For example, he also possesses two powerful eye techniques.

"What type of eye technique does your eye have?" Lian Ye asked, turning his head.

He still doesn't know what the abilities of Jing's Kaleidoscope Sharingan are.

Although asking rashly is impolite, their relationship need not be hidden.

Uchiha Jing could never strike a comrade, and likewise they wouldn't strike Jing…

Knowing the two eye techniques in advance allows better coordination in battle.

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang and Yuanfei Rizhan also cast curious glances.

Lian Ye's Kaleidoscope can foresee the future, which is a very formidable ability.

He wonders how Jing's eye ability is?

Facing the curious gazes of several people, Uchiha Jing had no intention of hiding.

"My eye technique concerns Genjutsu."

"The left eye can briefly alter a target's perception, causing them to make erroneous decisions."

For example, when a practitioner uses Ninjutsu to launch an attack, the target inexplicably feels that the released Ninjutsu will hurt them.

This shake of basic logic makes them hesitant, distorts their movements, and may even cause them to cancel the Ninjutsu release.

However, the altered perception cannot be too absurd; it must relate to the current action and appear as a "reasonable" misjudgment.

Such an eye technique greatly restrains ninjas who excel at calculation in combat, causing them to fall into self‑doubt.

"The right eye belongs to psychological suggestion and can be stacked on the same person..."

Its effect is gradual, requiring time and buildup, and cannot incapacitate an opponent instantly.

If the opponent's will is strong, the effect is very poor and may even backfire.

For example, hinting to Tuan Cang that being Hokage is pointless and that he should be an ordinary ninja.

Such a suggestion has no effect on Tuan Cang.

On the contrary, the caster may suffer backlash.

But one could approach it differently, such as making him think the Uchiha will stage a coup, subconsciously stirring discontent.

The two eye techniques achieve similar effects and work the same in combat.

Only the left eye leans toward combat, while the right eye leans toward everyday use.

"A fine ability," Lian Ye couldn't help but praise.

Uchiha Jing and Shisui Uchiha share the same thought: they both want to stop the conflict between the clan and the village.

After awakening the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, the acquired abilities are all eye techniques that can alter people's thoughts.

But Shisui Uchiha's other heavenly deity is even more unreasonable.

But Uchiha Jing's eye technique is not weak.

Or rather, the Kaleidoscope Sharingan's eye techniques are never weak.

"Use the Kaleidoscope sparingly; overuse can easily cause blindness," Lian Ye warned.

"Hmm, I understand," Uchiha Jing said seriously.

He has finally awakened the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, and he can't just go blind like this.

The conflict between the clan and the village hasn't been fully resolved yet.

Even if he must go blind, he'll wait until the conflict is completely settled!

The party soon left the border of the Fire Country.

Whirlpool Country isn't far from the Fire Country; at full speed, they arrived after a night's travel.

At dawn, Lian Ye and the others entered the area of Whirlpool Country.

Members of the Uzumaki Clan, upon seeing the Konoha ninja arrive, hurried inside to report.

Soon, the current members of the Uzumaki Clan arrived.

"Hokage, may I ask what important business you have come for this time?"

Lian Ye sized up the Spiral Clan Leader before him; he was no longer the old man of years past, but a middle‑aged man in his early forties.

That old man of years past was Mizuto Ayi's uncle, while the current Spiral Clan Leader is her cousin‑nephew.

Back then, when Lian Ye and Uncle Hashirama came to Whirlpool Country, they had seen him.

He never expected that the man would now become the clan leader.

"Spiral Clan Leader, you don't mind us staying in your esteemed land for a few days, do you?"

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang gave no specific reason, but offered a pre‑planned excuse.

Now that there are many people and eyes everywhere, any explanation must be given in private.

"Of course, no problem."

The Spiral Clan Leader agreed without hesitation.

Whirlpool Country is an ally of Konoha, and the relationship between the two nations is unlike that of ordinary countries.

One should know that his aunt, Xuanwo Mizuto, is still in Konoha Village.

There is no need to worry that Konoha harbors ill intentions.

The Spiral Clan Leader warmly invited everyone into the village and quickly arranged lodging.

"Spiral Clan Leader, I have some matters I wish to discuss with you."

Tuan Cang led Lian Ye and a few others to the Spiral Clan Leader.

"Hokage, please follow me."

The Spiral Clan Leader led the group into the Clan Leader's Mansion and invited them to sit.

"Hokage, please speak."

The Hokage came from far away; how could it be just a simple few‑day stay?

There must be other hidden matters.

As long as the Hokage does not bring it up, I will not pry.

"Spiral Clan Leader, I have received word that someone intends to seize the Uzumaki Clan's Sealing Ninjutsu, and that a war will be launched against Whirlpool Country in the near future."

Tuan Cang's words caused the Spiral Clan Leader to show a shocked expression.

He had not expected Whirlpool Country to already be targeted by other nations.

However, the Uzumaki Clan's Sealing Technique is renowned throughout the Ninja World, so being targeted is quite normal.

It was for this reason that they agreed to the Senju Clan's overtures at the time.

They had thought that, as allies, Whirlpool Country and Konoha would not be coveted.

Yet such an incident still occurred.

Fortunately, the Hokage not only warned them in advance but also personally led the ANBU here.

The Spiral Clan Leader did not doubt the truth of Tuan Cang's words.

The Hokage could not be joking about such a matter.

"We will stay here for the time being; please inform your people to strengthen vigilance."

"I understand, Hokage."
