Chapter 102

Uchiha Yao's aged and hunched body was now standing straight. The broken old jailer guarding his side began to decompose rapidly, shattering into gray-white sand, and swept toward the old man.

Before long, he was wrapped into a white mummy. A big mouth opened in the shadow in the void behind him and swallowed him in one gulp, disappearing without a trace.

"Clatter, clatter, clatter..."

As the black light lit up, a tall figure carrying a dark and obscure sense of oppression stepped out of the shadows.

"Kept you waiting..."

A young voice came from the shadows. When the black light dissipated, a strange figure appeared in front of Uchiha Gin.

He was wearing a gray-white tight-fitting bone-like light armor, dotted with ancient and mysterious curse seals. Bone spurs emitting a cold light grew from the joints of his arms and knees.

The fully enclosed head armor had air holes at the mouth and nose, and one could see the white gas exhaled by Uchiha Yao as he breathed. A flame-patterned scarf fluttered in the wind around his neck, and his eyes were a pair of huge black insect compound eyes. A V-shaped antenna decoration was dotted on his forehead.

Most eye-catching was his waist, where he wore a belt branded with a Mangekyo pattern, and black floating light flickered on the belt.

Uchiha Gin was envious to the point of purple, his fists clenched tightly, and his red eyes were almost popping out.

Such a cool transformation, Grandpa, I want to learn transformation!

Uchiha Gin, who had seen this kind of operation for the first time, felt his worldview shattered. To say he wasn't jealous would be a lie.

Why could this old man have such a cool transformation effect? He was clearly the protagonist.

"This is my ultimate fusion secret technique with Kaguya Wangliang."

A young and low voice came from under the mask. Uchiha Yao, who had regained his youthful vitality, pointed a hand at Uchiha Gin not far away and said coldly,

"Come, let's count your sins!"

"Stop counting for now, Grandpa? Grandpa! Open your eyes and look, I am your dear eldest grandson!"

At this moment, Uchiha Gin had already ignored what integrity was. He instantly slid and knelt, almost kowtowing to Uchiha Yao, who had finished transforming.

"Grandpa, if you had told me earlier that you could do this, I would have rebelled with you."

Uchiha Gin, who was envious to the point of no return, made a decision that went against his ancestors.

"Don't know what you're talking about, trying to use this kind of rhetoric to numb me again. This time I won't be fooled. Don't try to trick me, don't try to ambush me, a seventy-nine-year-old comrade."

Facing Uchiha Gin, whose attitude had changed 180 degrees, Uchiha Yao, who had fused with Kaguya Wangliang, scoffed. He had seen this move of Uchiha Gin's many times.

Uchiha Gin, who was rejected, was very regretful. If he had known, he would have brought things to walk around the dungeon more often over the years, not for anything else, just to honor the elderly.

Let's not talk about whether this dojutsu is strong or not. After all, being strong is only temporary, while being cool is a lifetime thing.

"This is the second stage of my fusion with Kaguya Wangliang. It can perfectly use all of Kaguya Wangliang's abilities while adjusting the body to the best state, and awaken new abilities."

Clenching his fists and feeling his body return to its peak state, Uchiha Yao said proudly. Now he was in the perfect state of thirty years old. At this time, he was basically invincible in the Uchiha clan.

"Take this, Uchiha Gin."

Uchiha Yao struck a strange starting pose, and the next moment he disappeared from Uchiha Gin's field of vision,

"Where did he go?"

Uchiha Gin, who had secretly activated his mutated Byakugan, was also a bit blind at this time. He couldn't see Uchiha Yao's figure in his 360-degree dead-end-free field of vision.

This was the first time his mutated Byakugan had failed. Even the power of space could be peered into, but now he couldn't find a living person.

"Where are you looking?"

A voice suddenly came to Uchiha Gin's ear, who was frowning and thinking of countermeasures. He was startled, turned his head, and found Uchiha Yao standing beside him at some point, looking at him coldly through his compound eyes with his arms crossed,

"Are you confused about how I disappeared?"

Seeing Uchiha Yao's strong desire for performance, Uchiha Gin nodded in cooperation. The ability that even the Byakugan couldn't peer into really made him very curious.

"One word, fast! As long as you cross this one-second time point and jump to the next one-second time point, you will never find me."

Uchiha Yao flicked his hand armor, his tone full of pride. He relied on a movement speed that surpassed the flow of time to achieve the purpose of temporarily disappearing.

Why are you flicking your hand? Be careful, I'll sue you for infringement.

Uchiha Gin suddenly realized. It turned out that Uchiha Yao didn't use the space power of the old jailer this time, but the time power he had never seen before.

As long as the speed was faster than time, he could naturally disappear in this second of time.

No wonder the Byakugan couldn't see it. It couldn't be blamed that the Byakugan wasn't powerful; it could only be said that the enemy was too cunning.

"Alright, since you already know the secret of my ability, you can go on your way with peace of mind."

Uchiha Yao's voice rang out again, but the figure disappeared at this time point again.

Tsk, such a BUG ability. If you had used it earlier, you wouldn't have been rubbed on the ground by your uncle. Do you all like to keep trump cards?

Uchiha Gin frowned in distress. He was very unfamiliar with the concept of time power. In the original work, there were very few descriptions of this ability, and his skill bar was full of conventional skills, which couldn't deal with this kind of means at all.

"Boom!!!"

Searching with his Byakugan and raising his spirits to twelve points, Uchiha Gin was still sent flying by a sudden blow. He forcibly stabilized his body in the air so that his landing posture wouldn't look so ugly.

Thanks to his multi-clan bloodline and a stronger physique like the Senju and Uzumaki, Uchiha Gin's physical fitness was several times higher. Ordinary external injuries could heal in a short time, equivalent to the level of scabbing without bandaging.

Just as the wound healed here, Uchiha Yao appeared again like a ghost, and other parts were injured again.

After several rounds like this, Uchiha Yao, who was panting, appeared on the shadows not far away. Even through the compound eyes, one could feel his gasping expression at this moment.

"You guy, what exactly is going on with your body?"

Seeing Uchiha Gin slap his hands together, urge a wooden lounge chair to grow on the ground, and then lie on it with enjoyment, Uchiha Yao, whose hands were numb from hitting, gritted his teeth and questioned.

He had attacked no less than a hundred times just now, but this brat was intact except for some damage to his clothes, and not even a bit of skin was rubbed off.

The touch on his hands didn't feel like he hadn't hit the target. This brat definitely had a problem.

"Ah? Is that all?"

After several waves of attacks, Uchiha Gin, who had deduced Uchiha Yao's attack mechanism, started his daily sarcasm. Uchiha Yao's time power ability was powerful, but it was a double-edged sword.

The attacks that appeared from time to time in the void were like scratching an itch, and the damage caused to Uchiha Gin wasn't even as fast as his recovery.

At this moment, Uchiha Yao was an assassin with high agility and low attack and defense.

Uchiha Gin, lying on the wooden lounge chair, couldn't help but yawn. The other party had been grinding for a long time, but couldn't even break his defense, wasting such a cool dojutsu.

"Don't underestimate me!"

Angered to the point of being unable to breathe, Uchiha Yao desperately urged the chakra in his body and blessed it all on his dojutsu.

At this time, he couldn't care about sparing energy to suppress the other will. He jumped high, did a somersault in the air to increase the gravity of the fall, and aimed a vertical flying kick at Uchiha Gin who was lying there.

"Whoosh~~~"

A kick blessed with time power superimposed the power of countless time points, and the power of Uchiha Yao at every second during the fall was blended and concentrated together.

Uchiha Gin raised his head. Under the training of Uchiha Yao's hundreds of attacks just now, the mutated Byakugan in his eyes could faintly see the future timeline.

Now in his eyes, the Uchiha Yao kicking toward him was not just one, but countless Uchiha Yaos from different time points attacking him together.

Finally, countless Uchiha Yaos from different time points concentrated their power on the last figure of the flying kick, kicking toward him with the power of a million tons.

Uchiha Gin, whose aura was locked, smelled a trace of crisis. If he really took this kick, he was afraid he wouldn't have a good ending.

Just as he was about to break free, several strange tentacles stretched out from the shadows lurking on the ground, sticking Uchiha Gin's legs tightly.

In shock, he waved the Flying Thunder God Kunai to cut off the black tentacles, but the endless shadows rushed forward one after another, binding him tightly.

"This is my ultimate secret technique!"

Uchiha Yao, whose internal aura was chaotic, had to grit his teeth and report his ultimate skill. The dignity of the Uchiha clan told him that a person could die, but face could not be lost.

【Forbidden Secret Technique! Instant Prison Shadow Killing Array】

Having no time to complain about this secret technique name, Uchiha Gin, who was bound in place by shadows, thought quickly about countermeasures in his brain.

"Don't think about struggling. Only Mangekyo can contend with Mangekyo. You, whose vessel is not enough, can only be defeated by me."

Even now, Uchiha Yao didn't forget to answer Uchiha Gin's questions, truly a good grandfather in China.

"Mangekyo, huh..."

It's all because he wasn't striving. After traveling for so many years, other protagonists would have opened their Mangekyo eyes and closed their nine-tomoe eyes, while he had been tortured by the NPC with Tsukuyomi many times, and still hadn't made any progress.

Uh, wait!

Memories sealed for many years flooded his mind. He seemed to have a prop that was gathering dust.

As his thoughts turned, a dark red card appeared in Uchiha Gin's mind. He had never encountered an evenly matched opponent, so he had forgotten about this thing completely.

【Tsukuyomi Experience Card: After use, can release Tsukuyomi once without cost, and the effect does not change according to the enemy's strength.】

If not used now, when? Uchiha Gin slapped his hand, and the Tsukuyomi experience card turned into a strange, gloomy power that poured into his brain, and he felt a hint of familiarity returning.

The mutated Byakugan closed actively, and his eyes were instantly stained scarlet. The left eye was wrapped in this external power, and the three tomoe in it spun rapidly under stimulation.

Only hearing a "ding" in his brain, the vision of his left eye suddenly became very clear and bright, and at the same time, strange knowledge emerged in his mind.

"Uh, you brat, actually..."

Just as Uchiha Yao's kick was about to hit Uchiha Gin's chest, his Mangekyo suddenly felt a resonance, and he looked at the strange pattern in the other party's left eye in disbelief, shouting in astonishment.

"Hehe, take a big Tsukuyomi from me!"

Feeling the surging pupil power in his left eye, Uchiha Gin curled his mouth into a big arc. Having turned into a crooked-mouthed battle god, he manipulated the dart in his eyes to turn slightly, forcibly controlling Uchiha Yao who was still in mid-air.

The scene in front of him turned again. Uchiha Gin came to his second hometown, which he hadn't returned to for a long time. Stepping on the mirror-like lake water, he looked up at the rising red moon, feeling a bit of a sigh in his heart.

The autumn wind is bleak, and the world has changed.

He sighed. He didn't expect to return to the Tsukuyomi space, and the owner had already become himself.

Uchiha Yao had already taken off his mask at this time, restored to the appearance of a hunched old man, was nailed to a high cross, and said nothing.

"Nothing to say?"

As the winner, Uchiha Gin asked curiously. You know, when he was pulled in, he was always conscious, which was convenient for the executioner to have a better experience.

"Hmm..."

Uchiha Yao on the cross woke up at this moment, looking at Uchiha Gin with a pair of confused eyes, his clear gaze full of doubt,

"Gin? Where is this?"

The old man's tone was sincere, without any of the arrogance from just now.

"???"

Uchiha Gin, who sensed something was wrong, frowned. Was this old man not pretending? How could he look like an innocent bystander?

"Where is that Kaguya Wangliang who betrayed me?"

The old man, regardless of his bound body, became crazy and asked through gritted teeth. It turned out that this Uchiha Yao was the one after being backstabbed by Zetsu.

"He actually left that thing in my body, and after detonating it, I was suppressed by the will of the dark side and couldn't control my body."

Uchiha Yao explained sincerely to Uchiha Gin.

"What exactly is the dark side you call?"

Uchiha Gin, who had never been exposed to this kind of knowledge, was very curious about the frequently appearing dark side.

"In the final analysis, this is also the ability of my Mangekyo."

The old man sighed and began to solve the puzzle for Uchiha Gin.

After awakening Mangekyo, Uchiha Yao's existing eye ability was the "Netherworld" he was familiar with, and the other discarded Mangekyo was a dojutsu called "Valley Weaver."

"Valley Weaver?"

Uchiha Gin, who had never heard of this dojutsu, made a questioning sound.

"Valley Weaver can materialize the rebellious dark side in the target's heart, waiting for the right time to detonate, allowing the second personality incarnated by the dark side to occupy the target's body."

This dojutsu sounds like it has something!

Uchiha Gin thought about it while touching his chin. Then the change in Little Light just now could be explained.

"Valley Weaver's consumption is huge, and I only cast it on Wuming under my control. I didn't expect Netherworld to bury Valley Weaver in me and Tian Dao's bodies."

"How to lift it?"

Compared to the question of when Zetsu buried Valley Weaver in the old man, Uchiha Gin wanted to know how to lift this dojutsu.

"Can't lift it, that Mangekyo of mine has already gone blind."

Uchiha Yao shook his head, his sincere tone didn't look like a fake,

"Unless there is something that can suppress negative energy, then Valley Weaver will continue to hibernate."

Although there was no solution, the old man still proposed a plan to temporarily alleviate it.

"Suppress negative energy, huh..."

Uchiha Gin, who was frowning, recalled the dark green cloak worn by the girl, and a flash of light passed through his eyes.

"How did you get rid of Valley Weaver's suppression?"

He turned to ask Uchiha Yao, who had regained consciousness. This old man didn't have any suppression method, so how did he recover?

"Hoo~ Although the dark personality produced by Valley Weaver can occupy the body, the spirit will have a big flaw. Using Mangekyo-level genjutsu can temporarily suppress it."

So that's it. No wonder the blackened old man wilted as soon as he was stared at by his Tsukuyomi.

"Then what's going on with Uncle? His Mangekyo ability should be enough to suppress Valley Weaver, right?"

Thinking of the two uncles who were easily controlled, both of whom possessed Mangekyo harboring genjutsu, why were they easily controlled?

"There are two prerequisites for detonating Valley Weaver: one is that the pupil power is not enough to support the release of Mangekyo genjutsu, and the other is that the target's heart has a huge flaw. In both cases, Valley Weaver can be released."

It's all Uncle's fault for pretending to be B and using Kotoamatsukami: Radiance, causing his Mangekyo to temporarily cool down.

As for Little Light, it might be that she was too relaxed after regaining her freedom, which gave Zetsu a chance to release the Valley Weaver in her body.

"Has your dark side hibernated back into your body?"

Uchiha Gin asked the Uchiha Yao nailed to the cross curiously, but the other party showed a look of doubt, glanced behind Uchiha Gin, and said hesitantly,

"So you didn't know. That guy is over there."

Uchiha Gin, who couldn't figure it out, followed the direction indicated by the old man's eyes and saw another Uchiha Yao surrounded by hundreds of himself not far away.

"Hehehe, move aside, move aside, it's finally my turn, take a sword from me!"
