The mysterious pattern seemed to be an ancient magic circle, filled with enigmatic power, instantly captivating everyone's gaze.
The person who had just cried out was Fugaku Uchiha. Staring at the red five-pointed star pattern in Wuchen's eyes, everyone's breathing became incredibly rapid, especially the Uchiha clan members, who looked at Wuchen, or rather Wuchen's eyes, with fervent excitement.
"It's... truly a Mangekyo!" Danzo Shimura, after a moment of stunned disbelief, also spoke with intense fervor. Before long, Danzo's eyes were filled with doubt and confusion. He glanced at the Third Hokage, then surveyed his surroundings. Seeing no one nearby, he whispered to the Third Hokage in a voice only they could hear.
"According to the First and Second Hokages, the only way to activate the Mangekyo Sharingan is to personally kill a loved one or friend, or witness their death firsthand?" Danzo Shimura's face was full of confusion. This iron rule was personally stated by Madara Uchiha after he brought Hashirama Senju to the Naka Shrine of the Uchiha clan, and later Hashirama Senju told it to him and the Third Hokage.
This was also one of the fundamental reasons why the Uchiha clan was called "the cursed clan." *Why could this kid break this iron rule that has remained unchanged for hundreds of years?* "Rules are dead, but people are alive. There's a saying, 'no greater sorrow than a heart that dies'." The Third Hokage didn't concern himself with these reasons.
So-called rules, to put it bluntly, were meant to be broken. It was like when Madara Uchiha hadn't activated his Mangekyo, the Uchiha clan thought the Three Tomoe was the limit; it was all the same idea. As for Ōtsutsuki Indra, he had long been forgotten... *Are you kidding? Was there even such a person in Uchiha clan history?!* Although Wuchen's sudden activation of the Mangekyo was abrupt, and the method somewhat bizarre, it was at least reasonable in the Third Hokage's eyes.
"Perhaps the Fugaku Uchiha and Mikoto Uchiha who lived in Wuchen's heart, in that instant, completely vanished... and that's why he activated his Mangekyo due to an unprecedented 'pain'!" The Third Hokage's words left Danzo Shimura completely bewildered. He couldn't figure out what they meant for a long time.
Conflicted, he could only humbly ask the Third Hokage for clarification. "But Fugaku Uchiha and Mikoto Uchiha are clearly still alive?!" Hearing this, the Third Hokage's mouth twitched violently. He glanced at Danzo Shimura, his contemptuous gaze silently calling him an idiot. "To others, Fugaku Uchiha and his wife are still alive. To Wuchen, they are both completely dead." Taking a deep breath, the Third Hokage explained. In reality, the Third Hokage was indeed correct. At this moment, in Wuchen's heart, there was no longer any shadow of Fugaku Uchiha and Mikoto Uchiha. "Should I try to steal it?" Danzo Shimura looked covetously at the five-pointed star-shaped Mangekyo Sharingan, calculating in his mind. However, a quick second thought immediately deflated his burning desire.
*Damn it, never mind! What if I don't get anything and end up losing myself? I'll be in tears!* One must know one's limits. Wuchen, without the Mangekyo, could easily defeat Fugaku Uchiha. Now, with the Mangekyo Sharingan, which was almost universally considered invincible, anyone who dared to challenge him one-on-one... at least Danzo admitted he didn't have that ability. "Mangekyo Sharingan... why does he get all the good things?!" A stampede of *caonima* [an internet meme used to express extreme frustration] charged through Fugaku Uchiha's rationality, roaring furiously within him.
"This is truly... an unexpected surprise." Unconsciously touching his eye socket, feeling the Dōjutsu power that was tens, even dozens of times stronger than the Three Tomoe Sharingan, a difference of pure quality, Wuchen suddenly felt that this was the true perk of being a transmigrator! "If you want to challenge me, at least come back when you have the same eyes as me. With your Three Tomoe, you don't even have the courage to open your eyes in front of me."
Wuchen sneered disdainfully at the unwilling Fugaku Uchiha, saying that even among Three Tomoe of the same level, the gap was so huge, let alone now that he had the Mangekyo. Without even glancing at Fugaku Uchiha, Wuchen ignored everyone's gazes, turned, and left this place of trouble. Seeing Wuchen calmly leave, everyone couldn't help but sigh with regret. They also turned and dispersed, shaking their heads at the disheveled Fugaku Uchiha, secretly cursing him as an idiotic fool.
The person who could have supported the entire Uchiha clan in the future was driven away by him, not to mention he brought all this trouble upon himself. A classic example of digging his own grave. "You damn bastard, I will never let you go!" Watching the onlookers leave, Fugaku Uchiha's face turned green. He knew that after today, a special title would accompany him: the most idiotic clan head in Uchiha history! "What are you looking at? All of you, get out!" Fugaku Uchiha, seething with anger, found everything an eyesore. Seeing that the clan members hadn't dispersed, he immediately lost his temper. Although the clan members looked at Fugaku Uchiha with sympathy, to Fugaku Uchiha, it was incredibly offensive, worse than having a mouthful of flies.
The remaining Uchiha clan members exchanged glances, then tacitly turned and left. An enraged clan head was no joke; if they didn't know better, they might be the ones caught in the crossfire!
