LRAB Chapter 48 Izuna's Eternal Kaleidoscope
Chapter 48 Izuna's Eternal Kaleidoscope
The Land of Rain, the Hidden Village of Rain.
Heavy rain enveloped the entire ninja village. In the tallest building in Amegakure, Hanzo of the Salamander, along with his trusted followers, was looking at a map of the Land of Rain and discussing the current situation.
"Chief, this is the latest disaster situation. The ninja forces of the Land of Fire and the puppet forces of the Land of Wind have broken out in a village on the front line. The village has been destroyed in the war. Our people only managed to evacuate a small number of villagers."
As he spoke, the ninja clenched his fists, his eyes filled with resentment and unwillingness.
It's clearly a conflict between two major powers, so why is it that this small country is the one that gets hurt? Just because they are caught in the middle of these major powers, are they destined to become their battlefield?
Another ninja stepped forward to report.
"Boss, we've contacted buyers on the black market. They're willing to provide us with ninja tools and equipment. They've already given us 10% of the goods, and more will be delivered continuously."
Several trusted ninjas kept reporting the latest intelligence, while Hanzo of the Salamander sat in the main seat without saying a word, just listening silently.
"call."
Hanzo the Salamander, wearing a mask, breathed a sigh of relief.
"This ninja world is cruel. Our Land of Rain is sandwiched between three great powers, so it is bound to become their battlefield. The great powers, for their own interests, plunge the small countries into suffering."
However, from this day forward, I, Hanzo of the Salamander, will not allow such a thing to happen again. I will repay those great powers tenfold for all the pain they have inflicted upon us. Issue my order: all ninja of Amegakure, prepare for war! Once our equipment arrives, we will declare war on these great powers! Even if Amegakure is destroyed, we will make these great powers feel our pain!
"Yes—!" *N
The crowd was outraged; they had already endured far too much suffering.
In the past, even if they suffered, they had nowhere to vent their pain. But now it's different. The appearance of Hanzo the Salamander showed them a possibility, a completely new possibility.
The war continues, but the three parties fighting in the Land of Rain could never have imagined that a fourth force would soon join the battle.
The Land of Fire, on the outskirts of the capital.
Tetsuya is on vacation in the mountains.
A colossal blue Susanoo giant collided with a colossal golden Susanoo giant.
The mere collision unleashed astonishing power, the terrifying impact tearing through the forest. The forest before them was now a scene of utter devastation due to the battle between the two, demonstrating the ferocity of their fight.
The next moment, the two Susanoo giants simultaneously drew their giant swords and slashed at each other.
"Clang!"
The moment the greatswords collided, it seemed as if a loud bang was produced, yet it also seemed as if no sound was produced at all, or perhaps the sound of the collision exceeded the limits that humans could accept.
"Hey, Izuna, how are you feeling? Have your eyes changed at all?"
Susanoo disappeared, and Tetsuya jumped to Izuna's side.
Izuna stood there, his aura completely different from before. If the Izuna of the past was as calm as water and as proud as ice, then now he was like the Death Star, filled with a murderous aura.
Especially his eyes. His original Mangekyou Sharingan has changed. The original Mangekyou had a black, blood-red pupil with a black, smooth, three-pillared branch connecting the edge of the pupil.
Now his Mangekyou Sharingan has changed; the hollow ring in the center of his blood-red pupil has become three hollow tomoe connected end to end.
If Madara Uchiha were here, he would definitely exclaim in surprise that Izuna's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan was almost exactly the same as his previous Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
The similarities are inevitable, after all, Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha are brothers, and Madara's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan was upgraded using Izuna's eyes. Izuna's Origin Mangekyou Sharingan, on the other hand, was made by Izuna, and these Mangekyou Sharingan are theoretically the most suitable material for Izuna to upgrade into the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
"Still no. Can that cell you injected me really evolve my Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan into the legendary Rinnegan? That's the eye of a sage."
"Hey, what's the Rinnegan? What's the Sage Eye? I also have the Sage Body."
Tetsuya stroked his chin, carefully examining Izuna's eyes.
"Is there really no change at all?"
"It's not that there haven't been any changes at all."
Izuna covered his right eye with his hand.
"I can feel that the power of my eyes is increasing every moment. This feeling is not the recovery feeling after using up my power. It's more like the upper limit of my power is constantly increasing. Although it's very subtle, this change is real."
"That's right."
Tetsuya nodded in satisfaction and patted Izuna on the shoulder.
"Perhaps when the power of your eyes reaches a certain limit, it will cause a qualitative change, and then it may evolve into the Rinnegan."
"You're right. Perhaps the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan really can evolve into the Rinnegan, but it will take time."
Just as Tetsuya and Izuna were studying the Eternal Kaleidoscope, the ground beneath their feet suddenly began to churn.
A weasel crawled out from underground.
"Hey, you're fighting seven people at once? What brings you here? Are you hungry?"
The weasel, known for taking on seven opponents at once, shook its head.
"Boss, that tentacle monster asked me to deliver a message to you."
"Oh, a letter from Kakuzu? Has something happened in the Land of Rain?"
As he spoke, Tetsuya took the letter, then took out a sealing scroll and tossed it to Ichiba-Seven.
"You've worked hard fighting seven people at once; this is your reward."
"Thank you, boss!"
One against seven, holding the scroll, was overjoyed.
There's no other reason than that this sealed scroll contains the chicken that their weasel clan loves to eat the most—all kinds of chicken, such as roast chicken, grilled chicken, shredded chicken, Sichuan-style chicken, and poached chicken.
After Zhe became wealthy, he never lost money and sent a large amount of food to the weasel clan that had signed a contract with him.
The weasel clan also follows rules; if they accept something from Tetsuya, they must do things for him.
However, Tetsuya doesn't need the Yellow Weasel Clan's help in battle yet, so Master Huang simply had the younger members of the clan come over to help Tetsuya with some errands.
The weasel clan is skilled in stealth, transformation, and illusion, making it incredibly convenient to have them run errands and deliver things.
This is one of the reasons why Tetsuya and his group were able to buy and sell grain and iron ore without being discovered by the major ninja villages.
Tetsuya opened the envelope, curious about what had happened on the front lines.
Izuna also came over, glanced at it, and got a general idea.
"That Hanzo of the Salamander is something else! He actually repelled the Land of Earth's attack, and the Tsuchikage has announced a withdrawal from the war!"
