Taking advantage of the opportunity when Tenten and Shion officially broke out in the second settlement war, Shinji quietly slipped out of the barbecue restaurant.
Walking on the lively streets of Konoha, he looked solemn.
The last message sent back by the shadow clone was to cover up the coal ball and destroy Danzo's trap hidden in the secret vault at his own expense.
So even he, the person behind the scenes, still doesn't know if the briquettes really succeeded.
But no matter how curious he was, he couldn't immediately channel the coal ball to confirm the situation.
This operation seemed smooth, but in fact it was very risky.
Because the number of suspects was too small, apart from Sasuke, the only ones left were him, who entered the root base with Sasuke, and a mysterious person who could barely get involved.
The mere presence of three suspects did not hinder the village's simultaneous investigation.
It seems that Sasuke is the most suspicious at present, but he may have entered the sight of the village's senior officials and attracted attention.
"Will the village perform mental torture on Sasuke?"
Shinji is also a little unsure right now.
It stands to reason that mental torture involves the spiritual realm, and the slightest carelessness can damage the brain of the person being tortured. Therefore, in the absence of irrefutable evidence, the village will probably not take such radical measures against Sasuke.
But don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.
If the village really doesn't care about its reputation and Uchiha Itachi, let the Yamanaka clan use secret techniques to sneak into Sasuke's brain.
Then Sasuke's suspicion will be cleared immediately.
By then, the only remaining suspects would be him and the mysterious man.
"If even Sasuke is mentally tortured, then the village will definitely not let me go..."
He is self-aware, and if he really gets to that point, he probably won't be able to escape the mental torture of the village.
At that time, he had only two choices, either to defect directly, or to use his Mangekyō Sharingan to come into contact with the spiritual mysticism of the Yamanaka clan.
Let’s see if it’s the spiritual magic of the mountain clan that can see through his brain, or if it’s the dream he created that can deceive the other person’s perception.
In short, this step is very risky!
Of course.
As long as you get the briquettes, it's worth taking any risk!
Others don't know what this step between the Mangekyō Sharingan and the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan means, but Shinji knows it.
Only by obtaining the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan can his power be his own.
Otherwise, it is just a temporary ‘experience card’.
At this moment, he saw Sasuke with a cold face in the crowd.
Sasuke also saw him, his expression changed, and he quickly came up to him: "Shinji, are you okay?"
"I'm fine!" Shaking his head, Shinji looked Sasuke up and down: "Are you okay?"
He was surprised, he didn't expect the village to let Sasuke go so quickly.
Sasuke raised the corner of his mouth: "What can happen to me? The village still relies on me to deal with Kyuubi!"
Shinji was speechless.
He had calculated countless things but missed this point.
However, if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.
Today's Konoha has lost the ability to suppress the Nine-Tails. Although Yamato has mastered the "Wood Release", compared with the first generation, it is really a world of difference.
Naruto, the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, is young and is at risk of going berserk at any time. Even if it is to suppress the tailed beasts, the village must treat Sasuke well.
"I didn't expect that a misunderstanding at the beginning actually helped me solve a big trouble."
Thinking of this, he was secretly glad and filled with emotion.
Soon, the two of them walked side by side, but both fell into silence.
Sasuke was very moved by Shinji's help today, but Shinji's power also made him particularly concerned, and he felt a sense of urgency in his heart.
After all, Sasuke doesn't need friends, what he needs is revenge!
The two of them were speechless all the way, and soon passed through the lively streets and arrived at the deserted river.
"Huh?"
Sasuke suddenly let out a sigh.
Shinji looked up and saw a lonely figure standing by the river. That figure was none other than Neji who had left the table in a hurry at the barbecue restaurant.
"Hey, Neji!"
Sasuke waved.
Neji turned around and saw Shinji and Sasuke, and asked curiously: "Why are you together?"
Sasuke replied: "I met him on the road."
"Didn't you just say that you have something to do and you have to leave first?" Pointing to the river, Shinji said, "Is this what you have something to do?"
After being teased by Shinji, Neji smiled and shook his head.
I have to say that fighting the mysterious man together today allowed the three of them to establish a special friendship, and they felt like they were both opponents and teammates!
The three of them sat by the river together, watching the gurgling water quietly.
After a long time.
Sasuke suddenly said: "Who is that guy today?"
Neji shook his head: "I have asked the ANBU in the village, and they have no clue, but I am sure that the other party is very strong!"
"Yes, even Iruka-sensei and the others were easily defeated."
Sasuke's mood suddenly dropped a bit.
Neji also sighed: "Hey!"
The pride of both of them as geniuses was shattered by that mysterious man today. Even now, when they recall that mysterious man, they will feel frightened!
Shinji did not participate in their emotions.
Because he vaguely guessed the identity of the mysterious man, he was not surprised at all by today's embarrassment.
His current thoughts are entirely on today's harvest of briquettes. If everything goes well, he can look forward to the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
By then, his pupil technique 'Susan Lamp' may be able to advance further.
He might be able to control more, stronger eyes.
Looking at Sasuke and Neji beside him, he gradually lost his thoughts.
He has Fugaku's pair of kaleidoscopes in his hands. If Sasuke can open his own kaleidoscope in the future, he can help Sasuke fuse the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
If Coal Ball can get an extra pair of kaleidoscopes this time, then he can exchange the kaleidoscopes for the kaleidoscopes, replace Sasuke's pair of kaleidoscopes, and fuse the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan himself.
This way he has two pairs of Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
As for Sasuke!
In the future, he can use the ability of the 'Susan Lamp' to help Sasuke's pair of kaleidoscopes regularly replenish their pupil power. Wouldn't the effect be the same as the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan?
If you think about it this way, it’s a win-win situation!
As his thoughts spread, he glanced at Neji again.
Controlling a pair of Byakugan means little to the current Shinji, but if he can control a pair of reincarnation eyes, it will be completely different.
When it comes to attack and kill alone, the Tenseigan is the most powerful!
Once the 'Reincarnation Eye Chakra Mode' is turned on, it is possible to condense a 'Path Seeking Jade', a powerful weapon that can restrain those below the Sixth Path level, even though the Chakra level is obviously not reached.
It can be said that God blocks and kills God!
However, the opening of the Reincarnation Eye is much more demanding than the Mangekyō Sharingan. If Shinji thought about it, he would have to go to the moon to get the clue to open the Reincarnation Eye.
"The Hyuga clan should have a way to contact the Otsutsuki clan on the moon. Maybe they can start with Neji..."
Just when Shinji's thoughts were getting more and more unrestrained, he suddenly felt murderous intent coming from behind.
"who!?"
He turned around suddenly and saw the mysterious man from before standing on a big tree not far away, staring at him with cold eyes.
Sasuke and Neji also saw the mysterious man and looked embarrassed: "Again!?" This chapter has been completed!
