At his current level, no one could match Arata's combat strength....except for the resurrection of Uchiha Madara or Hashirama Senju.
Naturally, he wouldn't reveal all of his cards. True strength was always in the hidden reserves.
Even legendary figures like the immortal pair from Akatsuki, whose abilities were extraordinary and survival nearly guaranteed, were ultimately defeated once their strategies were fully revealed.
Since awakening his Mangekyō Sharingan, Arata had been careful, both consciously and unconsciously, to hide the true potential of his dojutsu.
Those who thought they understood him only grasped a fraction.
If it were widely known that he could copy and learn other clans' kekkei genkai and secret techniques, his opportunities to strike effectively would be drastically reduced.
Worse, it would attract the enmity of other powerful clans skilled in secret techniques, making enemies where there were none before.
Uchiha Arata knew that true dominance came only when he could stand atop the world relying solely on his own strength....when no one could challenge him, and he could act with utter freedom and authority.
Relying on the tailed beasts to achieve Six Paths-level power was out of the question.
Those creatures could only serve as pets or tools. Building the foundation of one's strength on them was impossible.
Do not forget: the chakra of the Sage of Six Paths still circulated within the ninja world.
Even now, it had the capacity to empower Naruto and Sasuke to achieve Six Paths-level combat prowess.
Long ago, the nine tailed beasts were extracted and divided from the Ten Tails.
Considering the Sage's meticulous nature, it was hard to say whether he had manipulated the tailed beasts in some way.
Even without Hashirama Senju's Sage Body, the Uchiha clan's Sharingan had already begun forging its own path, no longer reliant solely on the power Indra inherited from the Sage of Six Paths.
In recent days, Arata's life had been productive.
During the day, he sent several shadow clones to accompany Elder Ryo and Uchiha Fugaku, assisting and learning.
Meanwhile, he hid in his space, rigorously training with the Lightning Release Armor.
Once fatigued, he would slip out and wander Konoha in search of delicious food.
With the Uchiha clan preparing to relocate, even the tightly held security forces were gradually being withdrawn.
Neither the Hokage's office nor the various Konoha families sought to interfere.
No one knew whether the Uchiha's departure was voluntary or forced, and stirring trouble now would only invite unnecessary conflict.
Since Uchiha Arata had slain Danzo Shimura with a single swing of his Susanoo, the former schemer had refrained from causing more trouble, at least temporarily.
Thus, though Arata wandered the streets of Konoha in search of food, he never encountered anyone foolish enough to pick a fight.
At night, he refrained from further training, balancing rest and effort to maximize efficiency.
Instead, he would read the books obtained from Elder Ryo, using the time to expand his knowledge.
When the village fell silent, Arata would summon Uchiha Mikoto into his space.
Together, they discussed the meaning of life and, at the same time, contemplated ways to contribute to the prosperity of the Uchiha clan.
Over these days, Arata noticed subtle changes in Mikoto. Nourished by their interactions, she had become more radiant and beautiful, her gaze seemingly capable of drawing one in entirely.
After several days of preparation, Elder Ryo and the clan head finally readied the first team of personnel and supplies.
On a bright morning, over a hundred Uchiha ninja silently gathered at the Nanka Shrine.
Each was fully armed, standing tall with resolute eyes and unwavering determination.
They were carefully selected elites, chosen by Elder Ryo and Uchiha Fugaku.
The Whirlpool Island had been abandoned for years and was now teeming with wild beasts and dangers.
Only the most capable and battle-hardened members could safely handle the mission.
Many were high-ranking ANBU within the security forces, pulled to serve in this operation.
With the security division itself being handed over, it was better to have a little disorder than risk the Uchiha clan's future.
The assigned members were eager for the task. The elders explained that this operation would pave the way for the clan's relocation.
The news of the Uchiha clan's separation from Konoha had spread throughout the family, and the entire clan rejoiced.
Over the years, they had lived in Konoha with a sense of restraint, never truly accepted, often mistrusted because of their duties in the security forces.
