Chapter 29 The show has only just begun
"Shota... I know this is cruel, but..."
"It's all too late. I wanted to give the Uchiha a chance, but time has run out..."
"In the name of the Hokage, I guarantee that as long as you carry out the mission to exterminate your clan, Moe will be protected by Konoha, grow up safely, and will not be regarded as a traitorous remnant."
"You are a Konoha ninja... Make your choice."
The sudden change caused Shota to lose his ability to think.
Why?
Why did the Uchiha clan end up like this?
Why not just suppress the Uchiha clan that wanted to launch a coup?
Why carry out the extermination plan against all Uchiha clans?
……
Why?
There were too many questions to ponder, but no one could provide the answers. All that lay before him was the cold, hard reality.
"Make a choice. The Uchiha are a scourge on the village; they must be eradicated!"
"If you don't do it, the Root and the Dark Division will take action, and Moe will die too, and you will be executed as a traitor as well."
"I advise you not to harbor any other illusions!"
"You can't protect the whole clan, so you have to choose to protect your sister, or all the Uchiha will die together."
"Don't even think about leading your clan to defect from Konoha and then seek refuge with Kumogakure, Tsuchigakure, or Sunagakure. Even if you escape to the ends of the earth, Konoha will still wipe out your Uchiha clan."
"..."
Compared to the lives of her younger sister Meng and the entire clan, the choice wasn't difficult at all.
Without further hesitation, Shota decisively chose to lead the entire Uchiha clan in a defection from the village.
Just as he was about to break through the encirclement, Uchiha Moe was publicly executed by Root ninjas and his head was displayed.
"No--!"
Shota roared wildly, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails dug into his palms, drawing blood.
Although he had anticipated the outcome, the harsh reality still caused him so much heartache that he could hardly breathe.
He recalled that swift knife, its blade flashing mercilessly before his eyes.
"Onii-chan~"
"Onii-chan, I love you the most."
"Remember to bring me the three-colored dumplings, please~ Please, Onii-chan~"
"..."
Extreme emotional stimulation combined with chakra caused a change in his eyes.
……
Inside the operating room, Shota, strapped to a metal recliner, was covered in blood and tears.
A powerful surge of chakra erupted from his body, emitting an eerie crimson light.
"Masaka?"
"It's Sharingan chakra!"
"Uchiha Shota has awakened the Sharingan!?"
A gasp of surprise erupted in the observation room.
"How is that possible?"
"What happened?! Eri-sama's son really managed to awaken Uchiha Shota's Sharingan?!"
The Third Elder, Yutaro, suddenly opened his eyes wide, his three-tomoe Sharingan spinning in his pupils as he stared intently at Shota.
"A single-tomoe Sharingan!"
"Shota has really awakened his Sharingan!"
Yuta, as Shota's father, was overjoyed.
He pressed himself against the glass of the observation room, looking at his son in the operating room, then looked up and let out a hearty, Uchiha-style laugh.
"Hahahaha... My son, Yuta's son, has awakened the Sharingan too!"
"Mom, my brother's eyes are bleeding. Is he alright?"
Uchiha Moe looked at her mother, Mako, with some worry.
"This is a normal reaction for an Uchiha when they awaken their Sharingan, so don't worry."
"Thank goodness, I thought Onii-chan would never be able to buy me tricolor dumplings again."
Mako shook her head with a smile, looking helpless.
The Uchiha activated their Sharingan to confirm that what had just happened was real and not an illusion.
The eldest elder, Zhixiong, looked at Xianyi with a sharp, questioning gaze.
"The psychological diagnosis shows that Shota places extreme importance on family..."
Kenichi wiped away imaginary cold sweat and tried to explain:
"If the genjutsu is realistic enough to make Shota see his family members die within it, theoretically it's possible to awaken the Sharingan. But... this level of genjutsu realism and illusion manipulation... shouldn't be something a genin could do."
He looked at Kazuhiko with a puzzled expression.
Zhi Shui stood in the corner, smiling as he explained:
"Even I can be fooled by He Yan's illusions."
"I see, no wonder Shota awakened the Sharingan."
"Does this mean that all Uchiha ninjas have the opportunity to awaken the Sharingan through genjutsu?"
"An upward move might not be out of the question!"
The Uchiha whispered among themselves, some in awe, others filled with longing.
Through psychological counseling and the use of genjutsu to help the Uchiha awaken his Sharingan, the result is already quite astonishing.
Eri was also smiling, genuinely proud of her son.
Where are those who called Kazuhiko "the shame of the Uchiha"? Why are they all silent now?
Has she suddenly become introverted and less talkative?
"Like mother, like son; Dean Eri has a fine son."
"The dean truly has a discerning eye..."
Kousuke and other medical ninjas offered their timely congratulations and heartfelt blessings to Eri.
Facts speak louder than words.
Shota's single-tomoe Sharingan is enough to silence anyone who questions the mental health clinic.
Zhi Xiong closed his eyes, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrest, pondering Xian Yi's analysis.
He felt inspired and had grasped the secret to awakening the Sharingan for the Uchiha clan.
A sufficiently realistic and tragic genjutsu, if cast by him, could also help an Uchiha ninja awaken the Sharingan!
But then, Shio opened his eyes again, looked at Shota, and frowned slightly.
wrong!
"Why is Shota still immersed in the genjutsu world after activating the single tomoe Sharingan?" someone wondered.
"Is it because of their strength?"
"Dr. Kazuhiko's illusion magic, amplified by his double tomoe, completely overwhelmed Shota's single tomoe; their illusion magic abilities are clearly not on the same level."
The lower-ranking Uchiha discussed in hushed tones, while the Jonin present remained collectively silent.
They were wondering what would happen if they used Sharingan genjutsu in the same situation.
The conclusion is: it is not difficult to influence a Chunin in a short period of time, but it is extremely difficult to influence an Uchiha who has awakened the Sharingan for a long period of time.
In the world of illusion, time flies by like an arrow.
Ten seconds is enough for a person to experience birth, aging, sickness and death.
It's been so long, and Shota is still sleeping there, showing no sign of waking up.
It's important to know that the Sharingan has an inherent advantage against genjutsu.
The boost from two magatama is not enough to give it an overwhelming advantage over a single magatama.
To make Shota so immersed in illusions that he can't return to reality, one's illusion skills must be at least two levels higher than the opponent's.
Shota is a Chunin at this time, so we can deduce that:
Kazuhiko's illusionary skills are at least at the quasi-Kage level.
How is that possible!
That's utter nonsense!
Shio activated his three-tomoe Sharingan and began to observe Kazuhiko's every move with complete concentration.
The illusion continues.
Kazuhiko stood in front of Shota, his Sharingan with two tomoe rapidly operating, and the fluctuations of chakra manifested as a tangible red light, flowing continuously towards Shota through the metal plate.
The show has only just begun.
