"Nope! I can't think about that. I have many other abilities that I need to test."
Ken muttered as he slapped his cheeks and stopped Shukaku Chakra Mode.
The sand armor around him slowly disappeared inside his skin and entered the seal.
As it did that, Ken quickly opened his Sharingan.
This time, he felt even greater power emerging from these eyes. Even though they only had two Magatama, he could see the world like watching a video in 4K.
Not only did everything look extremely detailed, but he could also see the flaps of the flies around the trees.
Even a simple wind blowing around him couldn't escape his eyes.
Though this was a pure wind, not the wind made out of Chakra, so he couldn't track it.
Despite that, Ken couldn't help but feel excited.
Improvement in the Uchiha Bloodline brought two extra effects to his body.
The first effect would be the immense growth of spiritual energy. It almost overflowed out of his soul, making it harder to contain with his small body.
The second effect would be the growth in pupil power. This was a different kind of power than Chakra. It still needed Chakra to exist, but it was completely different.
A special energy was produced in his mind whenever he went through an emotional rollercoaster.
After that, this energy would be utilized to keep the pupil active, and thus, it was called pupil power.
This was especially true for the Uchiha Clan.
They were the people who relied on emotions to produce that energy, but once it was produced, the pupil could easily refill itself.
But there was one big problem.
The human body, especially ninjas, didn't train their bodies like martial artists. Their eyes were very vulnerable, which made it harder for their eyes to use that energy.
The basic Sharingan, including Three Tomoe, required a very basic amount of pupil power to work. So, the eyes wouldn't strain themselves unless the user tried to.
But, when they were upgraded to Mangekyo Sharingan, the amount of pupil power required, especially when using Dojutsu, caused the eyes to strain massively.
And, since Dojutsu required a lot of pupil power, the brain could only over consume itself to fulfill the user's need.
This slowly led to the backlash of overusing Mangekyo Sharing.
This backlash not only stripped away the usual vision of a Mangekyo user but also damaged the production of that special energy.
That's why Obito was able to use Mangekyo without the fear of going blind, while Sasuke only used it for a month and went blind.
Obito had White Zetsu cells. These cells could speed up recovery. That meant the pupil strain would heal rather quickly, and the part of the brain that can produce the pupil power would also recover faster.
These two allowed Obito to utilize his Kamui without any fear of losing his vision.
There was another way to overcome this problem.
Upgrade the Mangekyo Sharingan to Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. By merging the eyes of the brother or family member, one could upgrade their eyes.
It was similar to adding two eyes to create one. The eyes would improve so much that they could easily bear the strain of using a massive amount of pupil power.
At the same time, since the eyes were connected to the brain, it allowed the required Chakra to improve that part of the brain.
That's why it wasn't possible to swap eyes with other clan members. Otherwise, there would have been several people who could awaken the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.
Uchiha Clan was a clan of talent, after all.
But Ken deeply suspected there was another reason behind this.
After all, if one could simply take the eyes of others to awaken Eternal Mangekyo, why would Madara and Sasuke be the only people to awaken Eternal Mangekyo?
This wasn't just a story. This was his world. He understood it very deeply.
For a power-worshiping clan like Uchiha, they wouldn't hesitate to take their brother's eyes if it could give them Eternal vision.
But for thousands of years, nobody succeeded.
So, Ken believed it was mainly due to the Chakra of Indra.
Unlike Madara and Sasuke, Indra could use full-body Susano with just normal Mangekyo.
That was because he didn't just inherit the Sage Eyes. He also inherited some level of Sage of Six Paths' Chakra and Body.
It wasn't complete like Ashura, but some connection gave him massive Chakra Reserves and incredible healing powers.
And since he inherited his father's pupil powers, it wasn't hard for him to utilize the full power of his Mangekyo.
That's why this system was so important for Ken.
It allowed him to obtain the bloodline of the direct descendant of Indra with the previous upgrade.
Yes, he still didn't have the bloodline of Indra, but it was closer.
Once he could reach the next level, he would have that bloodline, but it would cost him a lot of points.
Then, it would be the bloodline of Otsutsuki Hagoromo and finally the bloodline of Otsutsuki Kaguya.
Of course, bloodline was one thing, and being as strong as them was another thing.
At this moment, he had barely touched the level of Elite Jonin, and there was still one thing holding him back.
The mastery over the second element.
He could only reach Elite Jonin Level power using Shukaku Chakra Mode.
Otherwise, he was still a Special Jonin but a strong one.
"Now, it's time to see my panel. I believe there has been a massive change in my power."

'It seems like things went a bit different than what I expected, but it is not wrong. Upon upgrading Uchiha Bloodline, my Yin Release increased, but since this was related to my bloodline, there was no change in points.'
'The same thing happened to my Sharingan; otherwise, I wouldn't have 450 points left in my Sharingan. This is good. There might be a chance that I could awaken Three Tomoe on my own.'
'As for Mangekyo, that would be difficult. I am not complexly sure whether I would need to reach five thousand just to upgrade it to Mangekyo.'
'If that's the case, then I have a long period before I could awaken Mangekyo.'
Thinking about it, Ken nodded his head with satisfaction. After all, improving his strength was necessary, but it would make his body unbearable, and it could cause some problems.
Itachi was a genius, but because of his early awakening and constant usage of his Mangekyo, he suffered from incurable diseases and lost his vision very quickly.
So, for him, improving Mangekyo was a slow process. He would rather try to improve his Chakra and other abilities.
Now, with his upgraded bloodline, he should be able to improve faster, right?
Ken couldn't wait to try it.
[Shadow Clone Jutsu]
Ken simply used the hand sign, and a physical copy of himself appeared next to him.
"Woah! Now, I can use Jutsu in a single try." Ken was excited about succeeding.
He didn't forget to create only one Shadow Clone since he wanted to test his strength.
"Alright, Shukaku, can you sense my clone?" Ken asked.
Shukaku, who was playing in the desert, stopped for a moment and nodded.
"Yeah, I can."
"Then, get ready to cooperate. Send your Chakra to the clone and help him enter Shukaku Chakra Mode. I want to test my strength." Ken immediately requested.
"Shukaku Chakra Mode? Oh, you are talking about that Chakra Armor I created for you. Alright, I can do it. By the way, that name is nice."
Ken knew Shukaku was giving him a thumbs up, which was quite confusing as he didn't know how Shukaku learned to do that.
But he quickly shook off his thoughts and started to get serious.
At this moment, he noticed a large Chakra growing from the clone.
"This feels amazing." Shadow Clone noticed the sand armor around his body that barely had any sandy texture to it but was still being a sand.
"Main Body, be careful! I feel like I can beat tens of you."
Hearing that, Ken couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows.
'I am going to seriously beat this clone.'
