Younger Brother, Eye Power is Limited

Valley of the End, atop the Hashirama statue, the two brothers stood facing each other.

Uchiha Kagami exuded an imposing aura, appearing calm and composed as he attempted to wield the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan for the first time.

"Using my power to fight me?"

Shin'yu nonchalantly stretched his wrists, shaking his head with a soft sigh, "Unfortunately, even I find it difficult to break through my own flesh. Don't even dream of succeeding with such borrowed means."

"Brother, my mission has always been to protect my eyes," Kagami said slowly, "As long as I am invincible, that is enough."

"Invincible?" Shin'yu flipped his hair, a fierce smile tugging at the corner of his lips, "Who gave you that illusion?"

As he spoke, his right eye spun, instantly maximizing his condition, the blood vessels covering the whites of his eyes completely receding, becoming as clear as jade.

In the next instant, he disappeared from the spot, and hundreds of identical black-clad figures simultaneously appeared around Kagami.

"Autumn Dew on Leaves · Chaotic Blade Style · Fangs of Madness Bloom!"

The sword body was like glass, and the jade-green sword energy blanketed the sky, casting a ghastly green hue on Kagami's face!

"Swish swish swish swish!"

The air tore apart, the ground was shaved flat inch by inch, and thick smoke soared into the sky. In just a few breaths, half of the Hashirama statue's head was gone.

Turbulent currents danced wildly, and Kagami was bathed in the sword energy storm, his body undulating with it. His two scarlet Mangekyo spun eerily, blood vessels piercing the pupil of his left eye, and fresh blood gurgling from his right.

"Garuda" allowed him to absorb all kinetic energy the moment the sword energy touched him, protecting him from harm, and with the blessing of "Takama-ga-hara," he imprinted all the afterimages in the air into his eyes, conducting countless attempts in his mind, constantly rewriting the "future."

"Aaaaaaaah!"

Kagami roared to the sky, rising from the ground, and with a single slash, a certain afterimage immediately solidified, and a shockwave swept past.

"Clang!"

The blade broke through the Water Barrier and struck Shin'yu's forehead.

A metallic hum echoed, the wail of the longsword in his hand. Although it only touched the opponent's body for an instant, the immense force it endured caused the jade steel blade to tremble violently, breaking apart inch by inch.

In contrast, the opponent's body was unscathed.

Kagami had anticipated this result. The moment the blade vibrated violently, he threw out his left fist, only to have Shin'yu, with a smile on his face, tilt his head and evade it.

Two figures fell from mid-air, their trajectories interspersed with countless phantom images of fists and feet.

Kagami showed no sign of discouragement. The energy accumulated within his body made his movements incredibly swift, and the power of his taijutsu alone had already surpassed Kage-level.

Yet, he couldn't even touch the hem of his opponent's clothes!

Shin'yu leisurely rested his hands behind his head, not in a hurry to attack, only dodging, his movements graceful, effortlessly predicting all of Kagami's attacks, as if he were the one using "Takama-ga-hara."

No, I can't do it. To defeat him is simply wishful thinking!

Kagami's expression visibly turned grave. He had already pushed his dōjutsu to its limit, but in the future seen by his right eye, there was no possibility of Shin'yu being hit!

So, even that last strike was something he deliberately took!

As thoughts of retreat surfaced in his mind, Kagami's punches lost their ferocity, and his once aggressive footwork slowed down.

"Tsk, is that all you've got? Put in a little more effort."

Shin'yu unconsciously curled his lips, revealing a disgusted expression, "How can a guy who gives up so easily become strong?"

Back then, when he sparred with Lord Madara in taijutsu, he was beaten into a pig's head but didn't stop throwing punches.

"You can't protect anyone with just this much!"

Shin'yu gripped Kagami's wrist with his backhand, twisting his waist to gather strength as he pulled, silently chanting "Third Gate of Life" in his mind. Accompanied by a burst of air, a fierce liver-exploding punch was unleashed!

The force was so great that the fist's edge even slid out five scorching and distorted trails in the air!

"Boom!!!"

Kagami's eyes widened as the fierce force penetrated his body, the massive kinetic energy instantly overwhelming Garuda's absorption frequency. His left eye immediately turned blood red, and blood blurred his vision.

He flew out like a broken sack, smashing through the ground one after another, and was heavily embedded in the stone statue on the opposite bank.

Coincidentally, that position was exactly Uchiha Madara's chest, the place where Hashirama's flesh had once been transplanted.

"Oops, that's really unlucky." Shin'yu scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, "Lord Madara spent six years growing that piece of meat."

In the cracks of the stone wall, Kagami was still digesting the energy scurrying around in his body, but suddenly his pupils shrank.

In the next second, he appeared strangely beside Shin'yu, and was ruthlessly stomped into the ground by an unavoidable kick. The enormous force penetrated the entire statue, shaking out countless cracks.

"Younger Brother, is this the future you chose?"

Shin'yu looked down at Kagami condescendingly, wisps of blue energy emerging around him, and two vermilion-like eyes, drifting with a soul-stirring ghostly light.

Another kick landed, in the same position, with the same heavy blow!

"Boom!"

A huge pit was sunken into the ground, Kagami coughed up a large mouthful of blood, his ribs shattered inch by inch, and he felt that his internal organs were shifting.

Seeing the other party's foot raised again, he blasted energy towards the ground, wanting to use the momentum to leave this deadly giant pit, but the field of vision changed, and he returned to the original position again.

"Rumble!"

The Hashirama statue began to shake wildly, cracks appeared from top to bottom, and the cracks ran from head to toe. Pieces of gravel fell, splashing into patches of water, and dust filled the air.

"Ahhhhh!"

In Kagami's roar, the accumulated energy erupted, and a little golden light projected from his body. The light flames bloomed, quickly turning into a hideous skeleton, and the air waves soared into the sky, even tearing the clouds to pieces.

"Susanoo!"

Golden energy spurted out like a spring, blasting away the caught-off-guard Shin'yu in one move.

However, he adjusted his figure in the next moment, using the Water Barrier as a springboard, like a diving falcon!

The smoke was torn apart by the fist wind, a huge golden skeleton roared to the sky, and countless meridians instantly filled the bone seams, turning into solid flesh and blood. Its figure grew a bit, and the whole body was as bright as gold, rippling with clear brilliance.

Kagami covered his chest, staggering and standing in the Susanoo, his eyes already filled with blood. In the blurred vision, a figure shot over!

The golden half-body giant swung its powerful fist, colliding with Shin'yu's fist.

There was no strong collision as imagined, and a crisp "crack" sound flashed away, like glass shattering.

Shin'yu's flesh was like divine iron cast, every inch of his body was crystal clear as jade, indestructible, and powerful to the extreme.

He didn't even condense a Water Barrier, using only the most primitive method, like a ferocious cannonball, forcibly smashing through Kagami's Susanoo, and punching him in the abdomen.

The force of the punch erupted, and a surging wave of air swept past, Kagami's body instantly folded in half, and he shot into the water again.

Shin'yu raised his hand and made a grasping motion towards the air in front of him. The ultra-long-range vision of his right eye instantly locked onto Kagami's position underwater. As a red light bloomed, he grabbed Kagami's neck out of thin air.

"Oops, I used too much force."

He carefully examined his Younger Brother's face, or rather, he was observing his eyes.

The left eye, which had been maintaining "Garuda," was already filled with bloodshot, and fresh blood was gushing out.

The right eye, which had been using "Takama-ga-hara," was also completely bloodshot, and the blood on his cheeks even showed signs of drying.

"Younger Brother, the power of the eyes is limited. The more you explode, the faster the darkness will devour you."

As he spoke, "Ame no Tokotachi" was quietly activated.

Shin'yu smiled softly, the state of the Third Gate of Life was released, his pupils were as clear as usual, and all damage was completely reset.
