Chapter 50: Uchiha Jin: No More Lying Low, I'm Revealing My True Self!
Uchiha Jin spoke directly.
He sounded slightly helpless.
Since crossing over, he had always held a mindset of "lying low."
He hoped to truly become the strongest before making a stunning entrance and sweeping away all the monsters and demons.
Yet in this Third Great Ninja War, he only wanted to coast.
Who would have thought.
The appearance of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist shattered all of that.
Now it seemed he could only execute Plan B.
Taking a deep breath, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Fortunately, I am an Uchiha."
"Unlike other ninja clans, the Sharingan of the Uchiha simply defies reason."
"Even clan members who have not awakened their eyes can double or triple their combat power once they do; let alone the Uchiha's Mangekyo Sharingan."
"The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are nothing before the Mangekyo Sharingan."
"They are all trash!"
Indeed.
In Uchiha Jin's view, since he could no longer hide, he might as well be open about it.
As a weakling, the benefits were certainly greater.
Not only could he avoid the various nasty affairs among the higher-ups, but more importantly, he could quietly set up his schemes in the shadows.
But, similarly.
Being strong also had its benefits.
Although he could not avoid stepping into the spotlight and becoming entangled in the struggle between the higher-ups and the Uchiha.
Yet as a strong person, his autonomy would surely be far greater than before.
Some matters would be easier to maneuver, with far fewer constraints.
Overall, the pros and cons are evenly matched.
Of course, if given the choice, he would certainly prefer to hide.
Sigh!
What else could be done?
But it doesn't matter.
Even if forced to reveal his strength, no one could stop him from playing it safe.
At worst, he would just switch to a different way of playing it safe.
"Will this work?" Uchiha Shisui couldn't help but speak up. "The Mangekyo Sharingan is indeed plausible."
"But what if this gets exposed?"
"After all, the Mangekyo is the glory of the Uchiha. In the future, whether the clan head or the elders, they will surely investigate this matter."
"Have Itachi considered this, Jin?"
Nara Kazama and Hyuga Ayame both furrowed their brows slightly and began to think silently.
Yes.
Unknowingly, they had formed a small group.
No one thought of reporting him; they all wanted to keep his secret.
"I think we should change the story."
Nara Kazama spoke up: "Why not attribute the feat of slaying the Seven Ninja Swordsmen entirely to Uchiha Shisui?"
Hyuga Ayame nodded.
He also thought this method was reliable, after all, Uchiha Shisui's reputation as a genius had long existed within Konoha.
If they said he had a sudden outburst, others would be more likely to believe it.
"No, absolutely not." Upon hearing this, Uchiha Jin directly shook his head and refused: "I don't care about such a trivial feat. The key is that doing so would make Uchiha Shisui too dangerous in the future."
"Uchiha Shisui is too kind; he is basically unwilling to refuse others' requests."
"Once this is pinned on him, whether within the Uchiha clan or from the Third Hokage, they will use Uchiha Shisui just like they used the former Sakumo Hatake."
"Can Uchiha Shisui's small frame withstand that?"
Everyone fell silent.
Regarding Uchiha Jin's reasoning, everyone also found it quite logical.
Even Uchiha Shisui, who was just about to nod, fell silent upon hearing this.
Seeing this, Uchiha Jin smiled lightly.
"Everyone, rest assured."
"I can feel that my Sharingan is showing signs of breaking through."
"It won't take long before I can fully awaken the Mangekyo."
He was not lying.
With his system data panel, everything was clear as day.
During this period, even on the battlefield, he had actually been slacking off, so his experience naturally grew extremely fast.
Mangekyo Sharingan?
He felt that if he just played it safe for a few more days, it would evolve naturally.
Emotional stimulation?
He didn't need any of that!
As he spoke, the others drew in a sharp breath of cold air.
Even Uchiha Shisui did the same.
Actually.
He also had that same feeling as Jin; with just a slight stimulation, he could directly awaken his Mangekyo.
But, unexpectedly.
He, the genius, had not yet found a way to complete the final step of awakening the Sharingan.
Jin, the Uchiha shame in everyone's eyes, was actually the first to awaken the Mangekyo.
"That's good!" Uchiha Shisui smiled.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Hyuga Ayame and Nara Kazama felt the same.
The next moment.
After reaching an agreement on this matter, he turned and shouted to the group.
"Even awakening the Mangekyo poses a great threat to the body."
"Especially for someone like me, awakening it for the first time, I cannot defeat the Seven Ninja Swordsmen unscathed as seen here."
"I will disperse my chakra and let myself fall into a coma."
· ·········Requesting flowers····· ······
"Next."
"How to explain this to the front-line camp is up to all of Itachi!"
"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"
After speaking.
Uchiha Jin formed hand seals and cast Fire Release once more.
Unlike other Fire Release techniques, Great Fire Annihilation, though only a B-rank ninjutsu, derives its strength entirely from the user's personal power.
Even if a Genin manages to control it, they can only produce a small flame.
But in Madara Uchiha's hands, it can directly unleash a sea of fire, even capable of destroying a small ninja village with this ninjutsu alone.
During the previous battle, he had to hold back.
Now, however, it is different!
To exhaust his chakra, he directly activated full-power mode.
Almost instantly, a sea of fire rose up.
Uchiha Shisui: "..."
... ..... 0
Shikamaru: "..."
Ling: "..."
Gazing at the sea of fire before them, the three of them were utterly stunned.
Who would dare claim this is a B-rank ninjutsu?
Even a legendary forbidden technique would likely possess no greater power than this.
Ten minutes later.
With his chakra depleted, he simply collapsed into unconsciousness.
Uchiha Shisui caught him, and just as he was about to speak, a large contingent of Hidden Leaf ninja descended instantly.
Seeing the scene before them, which resembled a post-apocalyptic ruin, Fugaku Uchiha, the leader, hurriedly spoke.
"Uchiha Shisui, what happened?"
As Fugaku spoke, the gazes of the others naturally focused on Uchiha Shisui.
Uchiha Shisui remained silent.
This was his first time lying, so he naturally felt a bit awkward.
After gathering his thoughts, he slowly began to speak.
"We encountered the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist!"
"Just as we were on the verge of destruction, Jin directly awakened and evolved from a Two-Tomoe Sharingan into a Mangekyo Sharingan."
"Then he used Susanoo to completely eliminate the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist."
What?
Upon hearing Uchiha Shisui's words, the arriving Hidden Leaf Jonin were all plunged into shock.
Especially the Uchiha clan.
Upon hearing "Mangekyo Sharingan," they could not help but glance again at the unconscious Jin Uchiha.
