Capítulo 128: Chapter 128 - Drawbacks
Near the Village of Cats, in a deserted area at the edge of the empty zone.
A massive figure flew close to the ground.
As a large cloud of smoke dispersed, only a small figure was left on the ground, falling from a high altitude due to inertia.
This figure was Toshirou, who landed steadily on the ground after dispelling the summoning technique.
He couldn't help but sigh; the air force indeed has an advantage! When he went to the Forgotten Island, it took nearly four days in total by land and sea.
However, riding this big bird, swift as the wind, took less than half a day, making him deeply feel that the advantage of the air cannot be ignored.
From the cat grandma, he smoothly acquired what the young clan leader had instructed, and with a full backpack, Toshirou embarked on his journey home.
For the next part of his journey, he planned to travel on foot to maintain a low profile, which was necessary.
Moreover, the distance wasn't very far either.
Rushing all the way, before sunset, Toshirou finally returned to Konoha. Without any delay, he knocked on Uchiha Fugaku's office door.
When seeing Toshirou once again, Uchiha Fugaku was startled. He didn't expect that in just a month's time, the junior of the clan had changed so much.
Compared to a month ago, he was almost unrecognizable.
His entire body had turned extremely dark, and his face was covered with rough cracks from being battered by the sea wind.
But fortunately, his mental state was quite good; otherwise, Fugaku would have suspected that he went on some special mission within the Land of Wind.
"Fugaku-senpai, there's something I think I must report to you!"
After handing over the materials in his possession, Toshirou did not leave Fugaku's office immediately but hesitated a bit.
However, after deliberating for a while, Toshirou decided to have a proper conversation with him.
"Oh! Is there anything I don't know?"
"Or did you have some unexpected encounter while looking for a summoning beast..."
Seeing this, Fugaku asked with a chuckle.
Although he didn't stop Toshirou from going out to look for a summoning beast, it was also out of respect for his uncle; otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to let him leave the village for a month at this critical moment.
A good summoning beast is hard to find. Given their Uchiha clan's situation, an ordinary summoning beast wouldn't be of much use.
And the contracts with the three major summoning sanctuaries were monopolized by the three disciples of the Third Hokage, leaving the Uchiha clan without any opportunity.
"This time, I found a very peculiar place with many giant summoning beasts..."
As he spoke, Toshirou emphasized the word 'giant.'
After much consideration, he decided to let the clan know about Forgotten Island.
After all, this island would be discovered by others sooner or later. The summoning beasts on the island would be utilized in wars.
In that case, it would be better to benefit his own clan than others. Over the years, the clan had taken good care of its members instead of sending them to the battlefield immediately.
Since that's the case, Uchiha Toshirou wouldn't hesitate to repay the clan. After all, those elder clan members had gone to war without hesitation, significantly for the sake of the juniors.
"Oh! Giant summoning beasts?"
Hearing Toshirou's words, Uchiha Fugaku became curious. It's known that a summoning beast growing to four or five meters tall is already considered giant.
Without further ado, Toshirou activated his Sharingan.
Seeing that the other party didn't refuse, he cast a genjutsu.
This was a special way of communication among Uchihas, a technique usable only by those who had awakened the Sharingan within the clan.
It requires a high level of skill in genjutsu, which newly awakened clan members cannot achieve.
The effect is to present the information one wants to convey directly into the other's mind through genjutsu.
"This is..."
Seeing the scene presented by Toshirou, Uchiha Fugaku became unsettled.
If the island was indeed as Toshirou showed, it would be a significant boon for both the village and the clan.
"If it's really like that... Toshirou, do you have any plans for this place you discovered?"
Looking at the composed Toshirou, Uchiha Fugaku became curious.
He never expected that a simple decision to let him go would bring such a huge surprise.
From the images Toshirou had shown, the summoning beasts on the island were indeed huge.
Although they wouldn't change the course of a war, they would significantly enhance the strength of Konoha's ninjas.
"Umm..."
Caught off guard by the unexpected question, Toshirou was momentarily speechless.
But soon, he candidly said: "As far as I know, due to the Sharingan, clan ninjas often face two or more opponents at a time!"
"With these summoning beasts, there would be more ways to deal with such situations, which would greatly reduce clan casualties..."
Although he was surprised, Toshirou answered Uchiha Fugaku's question well.
What he brought up was also one of the main reasons for clan ninja casualties.
The name of Uchiha and the fame of the Sharingan brought glory to clan members but also had side effects.
In the ninja world, anyone with knowledge knows that when facing an Uchiha with the Sharingan, one should escape if alone.
The only chance of victory is with two people—one to draw attention from the front and one to launch a surprise attack from behind.
In war, single combat is almost impossible as ninjas move with their squads, leaving no room for individual duels.
"Well, your idea is quite good."
"I remember you are interested in secret ninjutsu. Alright then, I'll inform the shrine tonight; tomorrow, you can access some material you are interested in from the secret chamber..."
