Inside the room, Uchiha Yu had been standing in front of the mirror for over half an hour.
He wasn't looking at the bloodstain near his eye that Yakushi Nonou had scratched.
Nor was he being narcissistic.
He was looking at his own eyes!
His gaze was no longer the ordinary look of the past, but revealed a new sharpness and depth.
In his pupils, the originally ordinary black iris was now covered by a tiny magatama-shaped pattern, which appeared deep red, as if it were a gem embedded in his eye, emitting a mysterious light.
This was the Single Tomoe Sharingan!
The Uchiha Clan's unique Bloodline Limit!
It marked the preliminary stage of his eye's Sharingan activation.
The shape of the magatama was simple and elegant; it was not merely a decoration, but a symbol of power.
The Single Tomoe Sharingan granted Uchiha Yu insight beyond ordinary people; he could capture the most subtle movements, predict his opponent's next move, and even copy basic Ninjutsu and Taijutsu.
His eyes became even sharper, able to perceive the flow of his opponent's Chakra, giving him a prophetic advantage in battle.
With every blink, he seemed to feel the Chakra particles in the air pulsating; with every gaze, he seemed to see through the essence of objects.
In Uchiha Yu's eyes, the World became clearer; he could see details he had never noticed before and feel the subtle changes in Chakra.
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and felt the changes brought by his new eyes.
At this moment, in the restroom of a hamburger restaurant in New York, Stephen Fang was also observing himself in the mirror.
【Sharingan (Single Tomoe): Grants Uchiha clan members basic dynamic vision enhancement, capable of precisely capturing fast-moving objects, providing initial insight and reaction advantage in combat, and a certain enhancement against Genjutsu.】
"These eyes look so cool!" Stephen Fang touched his eyelids. "Can we also release Amaterasu when the time comes?"
Pirate Fang Yu, holding a bowl of hilamishi he had just received, shook his head and retorted, "Don't even think about eyes of the Mangekyo level for now."
"Gulp, gulp."
The viscous, thick substance flowed down his throat into his stomach, and Pirate Fang Yu continued:
"Naruto Fang Yu has done an excellent job. Here, I can't help but mention Erzhuzi, the 'genius' boy who witnessed the Carnage of his entire clan and, in a fit of rage, opened a Single Tomoe Sharingan."
"That's true! I was too greedy!" Stephen Fang nodded. "I feel like the flow of time has slowed down a lot now! I can clearly see the flight path of a fly! How amazing!"
"Just play around, you'll be dizzy in less than a minute," Pirate Fang Yu warned. "Compared to Japanese anime, the ability conversion gained in the Marvel World is far inferior to mine."
No sooner had he spoken than Stephen Fang suddenly felt the World spin!
The side effects of the Sharingan made him vomit the beef slices he had just secretly eaten!
"Ugh! That's disgusting!"
"Overuse of the eyes is like this. Don't activate them for fun unless absolutely necessary," Pirate Fang Yu reminded him.
"Mm."
After Pirate Fang Yu finished with the junior, he immediately started talking to Naruto Fang Yu, "You awakened your eyes much faster than I imagined."
Uchiha Yu moved away from the mirror, "Mm, it should be related to the Gene Lock."
Pirate Fang Yu stroked his chin thoughtfully, "I think it's also inseparable from Itachi. The will to survive from nearly dying is not much different from losing someone important."
"However, if it's just like this, it's still far from enough."
Uchiha Yu nodded, "But at least I have a stepping stone."
According to incomplete statistics.
The Uchiha Clan had a total of eight hundred members.
Among them, only about seventy members had awakened their eyes.
Most of them were still Single Tomoe Sharingan.
A "genius" like Uchiha Yu, who awakened his eyes before graduating from the Ninja Academy, could be considered a rare existence.
The Uchiha clan treated such awakened geniuses very well.
This much was evident just by looking at Obito, that slacker.
Before participating in the war, Obito was also an ordinary Ninja who hadn't awakened his eyes.
But the Uchiha still provided him with many conveniences.
For example, Ninjutsu like the Great Fireball Technique, which was exclusive to the Uchiha; children of commoners could only access it after graduating from the Ninja Academy.
But any Uchiha Ninja could learn it first.
"Although a guy like Itachi most likely won't pay attention to you, you should still be careful. God knows if he remembered your figure," Pirate Fang Yu reminded him.
"I can only take the risk. If I don't show some strength and am not valued by the clan, I will still be hard-pressed to escape death in ten months."
At this moment, Stephen Fang, who had been silent for a long time, interjected, "If that's the case, then why can't you escape Konoha?"
"Heh heh... escape?" Pirate Fang Yu replied disdainfully, "Escaping Konoha means certain death."
Uchiha Yu patiently explained, "The Sharingan is a Bloodline Limit that every Village in this Ninja World covets."
"It's not as difficult to research as other Bloodline Limits; simply performing a simple eye transplant surgery allows one to use the Sharingan for themselves."
"After the Clan Carnage, if there are still two surviving Sharingan in the World outside of Konoha Village—"
"One pair is with Itachi."
Please... You... Collect 6... Books... Bar...!
"One pair is in my eye sockets."
"Then what do you think my fate will be?"
Stephen Fang shrank his neck, "I'll stop offering bad ideas."
Uchiha Yu shrugged, "It's fine. People raised in a happy educational environment and people like us, who grew up in a World where we lick blood from the tip of a knife, still have some differences in crisis awareness."
The night passed without incident.
The next day, at dawn, Uchiha Yu woke up early.
Today, all students in the Ninja Academy's 【Training Class】 had an assessment.
Uchiha Yu specifically scheduled the assessment for the afternoon.
Because in the morning, he had a very important matter to attend to.
An hour later, Uchiha Fugaku, the head of the Konoha Police Force, the clan leader of the Uchiha Clan, and also the father of Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke, nodded with a solemn expression.
"A genius among geniuses."
He said to his wife, Uchiha Mikoto, who was pouring tea beside him, "A great genius that the Uchiha Clan hasn't seen in a hundred years. Our son Itachi awakened his eyes at eight years old."
"And most of the clan members only have a chance to awaken their eyes after the age of ten."
"This kid only studied at the Ninja Academy for two years and completed his eye awakening at the age of nine."
"Rare! Extremely rare!"
Uchiha Mikoto finished pouring the tea and handed it to Uchiha Yu, who quickly thanked her with a nod, "Thank you, Clan Leader's wife."
Although he was polite, Uchiha Mikoto did not show him a good face.
"Awakening eyes early doesn't mean anything. Uchiha Madara awakened his eyes at fifteen, and his achievements, apart from the First Hokage, are unmatched."
"That's true," Uchiha Fugaku said with displeasure, "Wouldn't it be better to give this child more encouragement?"
"I'm afraid he'll get carried away," Uchiha Mikoto said with a downward turn of her lips, her gaze flicking towards her younger son, Uchiha Sasuke, who was eavesdropping behind the screen.
Uchiha Yu also understood why Uchiha Mikoto was so jealous of him.
She felt that her seven-year-old son's aptitude was mediocre, far inferior to Itachi's, and she was afraid that his talent might even be lower than that of a commoner orphan.
Uchiha Yu thought of a joke and shared it with the other two Fang Yu's.
"What's she anxious about? In ten months, after she's personally killed by her good son, Uchiha Itachi, Sasuke, who witnesses everything, will achieve the historical first by awakening his eyes at the age of seven."
Marvel Fang Yu: "That's truly hellish."
Pirate Fang Yu: "You won't be going to heaven."
