Hidden Leaf Village, late at night.
After last night's riot, because the protagonist of the Hundred Days Banquet was kidnapped, the representatives of the Four Great Shinobi Villages left the village one after another, parting on bad terms, and this lively banquet came to an end.
Fortunately, Uchiha Kagami rescued Princess Tsunade in time, and the evil thief who disturbed the peace of Hidden Leaf Village was also brought to justice by the First Lord, so the uneasy villagers were able to settle down.
With the joint cooperation of relevant departments, the wounded were treated, the damaged buildings were repaired, and the aftermath work such as comforting the people and assessing the losses was also proceeding in an orderly manner.
All the order in the village was operating normally, restoring the tranquility of the past...
When the sun rises, it will be another vibrant and hopeful tomorrow...
The above! Are all lies designed to appease the people.
The truth is:
Lord Hokage is dying, his life or death is unknown...
Lord Tobirama was seriously injured and unconscious...
The backbone of Hidden Leaf Village is missing, and the entire high-level is in chaos, panicking all day long...
In order to stabilize the situation, the Hidden Leaf Village officials had to block the news and forcibly suppress these things.
However, in addition to the Clan Heads of the major families, there is another person who is also overwhelmed.
"Captain Kagami, the South District has been patrolled, should we take a rest?"
"No, patrol along East Street again, and be sure to be on high alert!"
"Yes!"
...
"Kagami, I'm really sorry about what happened last night, I didn't know I was possessed..."
"Captain Fire Core, I don't blame you, there's no need to mention this matter again, the most important thing now is to strengthen the vigilance around the village, the clan still needs you to coordinate more..."
...
"Kagami! Tell me, where the hell is that bastard! I want to kill him with my own hands!"
"Hiruzen? You... Shin'yu has been executed, why do you still..."
"Stop lying! Go tell such boring lies to ghosts! That bastard killed my father, as the young Clan Head of the Sarutobi Clan, what can't I know!"
"Hiruzen, calm down first..."
...
"Uchiha Kagami, your brother is really capable..."
"Danzo, don't say sarcastic remarks at this time..."
...
"Kagami..."
"Lord Kagami..."
...
Early morning, Kagami dragged his weary body back to the Clan Territory, and as he reached a street corner, he inexplicably glanced to the left.
The aroma wafting from the breakfast stall across the street was enough to make anyone's stomach rumble. On the outdoor seating, a handsome black-haired youth raised his cup to him with a gentle smile.
Kagami's eyes flickered, suppressing all the complex emotions in his heart, and he walked over with heavy steps.
He stood across the table, unable to resist scrutinizing the young man before him.
The youth's features were delicate, his eyelashes long and soft, beautiful like a woman. He wore the Uchiha Clan's everyday black clan robes, and to make eating easier, he had tied his long black hair into a ponytail, "Glug, glug, glug," drinking soup.
The food on the table was very abundant: eel sushi, seaweed rice balls, fresh hot milk, various bento boxes, oden, cakes and pastries, fruit salad, a wide variety of flavors, exuding wisps of fragrance.
For ordinary people, such a breakfast was simply too extravagant.
The youth's eating manners were quite elegant. With a rice paddle in his right hand, he meticulously cleaned out the lunch box, not leaving a single grain of rice, and chewed it together with a meatball, followed by a mouthful of milk, and finally slowly picked up a handkerchief to wipe his mouth.
"Younger Brother, have a seat."
Kagami took a deep breath and stiffly sat down across the table.
"Older Brother, how did you get in here?"
"A boring question, you might as well ask what I'm doing here." Shin'yu took a rice ball and took a bite, "You must be starving, right? Eat, it's on me."
A drop of sweat trickled down Kagami's forehead. "What are you doing here?"
"First of all, to eat." Shin'yu said vaguely, biting into a piece of sushi, "Last night's battle was really tiring, well, mainly mentally tiring. Good food can fill the emptiness in my heart."
Kagami remained unmoved, his eyes glowing red, and traces of blood seeped from his eye sockets as he activated his Mangekyo Sharingan.
The patterns rotated, like clovers in the wind.
"Nice eyes, truly magnificent..." Shin'yu ate salad, his dark eyes meeting his, filled with admiration.
"Hmm!" As if remembering something, he casually asked, "How's Tobirama?"
"Lord Hokage and Lord Tobirama are not in Hidden Leaf Village." Kagami stared at him intently. "Lord Mito and Princess Tsunade have also been transferred to a secret location. They are not here."
"I was just asking casually, Younger Brother." Shin'yu smiled slightly. "Actually, the main reason I'm making such a big fuss is you."
"Me?" A trace of doubt flashed across Kagami's face, and with a flash of light in his right eye, these doubts vanished, like ripples disappearing on a lake.
"You... want my eyes, to fuse them into Eternal Eyes that will never go blind," Kagami said calmly.
Shin'yu leaned forward slightly. "Oh? Have you seen the stone tablet at Naka Shrine?"
"I haven't seen it, and I also know..." Kagami shook his head. "In three seconds, you will reach out to dig out my eyes, but after I say this, you will immediately abandon the idea out of curiosity."
"Is that your eye technique?" Shin'yu blinked, without the slightest hint of panic at being exposed, even though he was really preparing to dig out his eyes just now.
He stirred the daikon radish in the oden with a spoon. "Interesting, you can actually peek into people's inner thoughts..."
Kagami suddenly picked up a rice ball, eating as he spoke, his tone as calm as if he were stating something unrelated:
"In six seconds, you will activate your Mangekyo Sharingan and cast Demonic Illusion: Puppet Technique on me, but it will fail, because as someone who has also awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, my spiritual energy has soared, and I have a natural resistance to Genjutsu..."
"In ten seconds, you will use your spiritual body to possess me, but it will still fail, and you will be severely countered by my other eye technique..."
"In 15 seconds, you'll start to wonder about the ability of my other eye technique..."
"In 1 minute, you'll be so angry that you'll grab my neck and fly me out of Hidden Leaf Village..."
"In 3 minutes..."
At this moment, time seemed to rewind to 12 years ago. The two brothers were sitting at home as usual, facing each other, casually chatting over breakfast, as if it were the most ordinary thing.
As he spoke, Lord Kagami's right eye was already covered with bloodshot veins, and fresh blood flowed down his cheek, dripping onto the ground.
Shin'yu calmly finished his milk, "Wipe your face, don't scare the children."
"Clatter."
The rice ball fell on the table, and Lord Kagami covered his right eye, panting rapidly.
"Peeking into the future, it seems you've gained a good ability, but as your older brother, I must tell you, the Mangekyo Sharingan is a forbidden path. From the moment you awakened it, you were destined to go blind..."
Shin'yu's lips curled into a meaningful smile, "Can your eyes see that future?"
