Capítulo 333: Chapter 333: Witnessing the Uchiha's Massacre
Who would have thought that Uchiha Fugaku had quietly awakened his Mangekyō Sharingan?
Who would have expected someone as reserved as him to reveal his Mangekyō directly to Takuya?
Even Takuya himself hadn't imagined that Fugaku would share this secret with him.
The true power of Fugaku's Mangekyō Sharingan remained a mystery.
The anime hinted at it—something about seeing certain vague events from the future.
It seemed a bit like the prophecy ability possessed by the Great Toad Sage.
"Oh?"
Takuya swallowed the meat in his mouth and curiously asked:
"What future did you see, Clan Head Fugaku?"
With the activation of his Mangekyō Sharingan, Fugaku's aura had grown much colder. The crimson eyes stared at Takuya, who in turn examined the pattern of Fugaku's Mangekyō.
It was obvious without a DNA test—Itachi was definitely Fugaku's biological son.
Just look at how similar their Mangekyō were, almost 90% identical. In comparison, Sasuke seemed a bit off.
Fugaku's Mangekyō also had three tomoe, but unlike Itachi's, they were connected to the iris, with an additional circle in the middle of each tomoe.
"I saw the Uchiha Clan's demise… and it's because of you, Takuya."
"Pfft!"
"Cough, cough, cough!!!"
Takuya choked, his eyes wide in surprise. "Are you sure? You saw me destroying the Uchiha in the future?"
What kind of joke was this? Sure, Takuya had no intention of aligning himself with the clan, but it wasn't like he was insane enough to destroy the Uchiha.
A large clan like that couldn't just be wiped out because someone wanted to.
Even if Takuya was willing, the higher-ups wouldn't agree to it.
Danzo might have orchestrated the Uchiha massacre, but that was Danzo—try anyone else, and the Third Hokage would come for them.
"Yes."
Fugaku pointed to his left eye. "My left eye can see glimpses of the future, though it's very vague and incomplete, and using it comes at a great cost. My right eye is unique as well."
The chakra cost of using the Mangekyō is proportional to the strength of its abilities. For example, Shisui's Kotoamatsukami was an extremely powerful genjutsu but used up an immense amount of chakra.
If Fugaku's eyes could glimpse the future, it meant that power was incredibly formidable.
Which also meant that using it probably had a terrible cost.
Takuya seriously suspected that if Fugaku kept peering into the future, he'd end up blind.
"…"
After a moment of silence, Takuya shook his head slightly.
"Other than a few of those old bastards, I have no real problem with the Uchiha. After all, the Uchiha are my mother's family. As long as they don't mess with me, I'll have no reason to bother them either. The future—who can truly predict it?"
"Even if your eyes can see a few unclear fragments, the moment you glimpse them, you might already be changing the future."
"Your eyes are impressive. You'd be wise not to overuse them—unless you want to go blind."
"!!!"
Fugaku's Mangekyō trembled slightly. Takuya's words had practically laid everything bare.
The future might change just because he'd glimpsed it—
And if he used his eyes too much, he would lose them.
This warning alone meant Takuya possessed similar eyes.
"Don't look at me like that."
Takuya kicked dirt over the fire to snuff it out, talking as he worked:
"You're braver than I am, casually peering into things like that. I've always worried about going blind."
"I used to think you were the kind who could keep it all in. Now I see you're lacking in that department."
"Huff~~~"
"Huff~~~"
Fugaku's breathing grew heavier.
His mouth felt dry, and he couldn't help but ask:
"When did it happen? I mean, your eyes?"
"A few years back."
Takuya shrugged, answering nonchalantly.
Since Fugaku had laid his cards on the table, what was there for Takuya to hide?
It was bound to be found out sooner or later, so he might as well be upfront about it.
He refused to believe anyone would dare to target his eyes.
If they tried, he'd bash their skulls in.
Closing his eyes, Takuya reopened them, his Mangekyō Sharingan now revealed.
Unlike Fugaku's ordinary Mangekyō, Takuya possessed the Eternal Mangekyō—with far less chakra consumption.
He deactivated his Sharingan and stood up to leave.
"By the way, Danzo is very interested in the Sharingan, especially those stronger than the Three-Tomoe. If you don't want to go blind or become one of Danzo's targets, you'd best be careful."
"And it's not just Danzo—Orochimaru too."
If Orochimaru hadn't yet begun his research into the Sharingan, then fine—but Takuya was sure that once he did, he'd become deeply fascinated by it.
Ever since Orochimaru and Danzo had become more closely involved, Takuya had noticed Orochimaru occasionally eyeing his Sharingan, though he tried to be subtle about it.
...
Those bastards… where have they gone?
No word for days—could something have happened?
Yagura felt frustrated. On the battlefield, the Mist Village hadn't gained any advantage over Konoha, and in tactical skirmishes, Orochimaru always seemed to have the upper hand, leaving Yagura feeling thwarted.
He had pinned his hopes on the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist bringing him some good news.
But instead, they had vanished without a trace—not only were they nowhere to be found, there wasn't even any word from them, as if they had disappeared entirely.
Could they have defected?
Suddenly, Yagura thought of this possibility—perhaps the Seven Ninja Swordsmen had turned traitor.
"No… Impossible."
The thought seemed to frighten even Yagura himself, and he shook his head repeatedly.
Though the Swordsmen could be unruly and constantly opposed him like the Hōzuki clan, they were still loyal to the Third Mizukage. It was inconceivable they would just defect.
Moreover, they had no reason to betray the village.
But then why was there no word from them?
They couldn't all have been wiped out, could they?
"Lord Yagura."
At that moment, Yagura's assistant came rushing in, looking panicked.
Yagura frowned, clearly displeased.
"Why are you in such a state?"
"My Lord."
The assistant quickly composed himself, standing properly before speaking softly:
"We've just received news—Hōzuki Jirō's unit was defeated in the Land of Bears by Konoha forces. Jirō has been captured, and the unit suffered heavy casualties; only a few managed to escape."
"…"
Another bad piece of news. Yagura felt like he was cursed—a never-ending stream of negative reports.
"Didn't I order them to link up with the Seven Ninja Swordsmen and infiltrate the Land of Fire? Why were they fighting in the Land of Bears?"
"Whose unit did they encounter?"
Damn it!
Not only did they lose, but their leader got captured—a complete disgrace. The Hōzuki clan always acted so arrogant, but they were all useless.
Seeing Yagura's darkening expression, the assistant answered carefully:
"Based on the survivors' accounts, they encountered a unit led by Yagami Takuya. All their members were from the Uchiha clan. They used Fire Release to dispel our Hidden Mist Jutsu, and Takuya summoned Manda to charge the battlefield. He then joined the fray himself, and most of our people died at his hands."
"Hōzuki Jirō was also captured by him."
"Bang!!!"
Yagura slammed the table in anger.
Yagami Takuya again—it was always Yagami Takuya. His appearance never brought anything but trouble.
First, he killed Hoshigaki Fuguki and took Samehada. Then he infiltrated the rear lines alongside Jiraiya, causing chaos everywhere.
And that was before he nearly blew up the Third Mizukage during his destructive raid on the Mist Village.
Yagura hated Takuya's name with a passion.
"My Lord, here's the intelligence we obtained through interrogation."
