【Student Uchiha Shisui’s trust level increased to Level 4】
【You gifted your immensely grateful student a custom-made ninja tool with decent materials. Supercritical reward triggered: Received reward – Lightning Breathing (Perfect Level), Black-Rimmed Glasses】
【Student Uchiha Shisui’s intense emotions activated the Six Paths Bloodline, awakening the Sharingan, and increasing his strength. Received reward – Byakugan】
【Student Uchiha Shisui’s chakra +200, Master’s Return from Student’s Training +800 chakra】
As Mokutsuki had expected, extreme emotions led to an unprecedented burst of rewards, yielding skills beyond mastery level and a pair of glasses with an unknown purpose for now.
However, Shisui’s advancement rewards were abstract. He awakened the Sharingan and received the Byakugan as a reward. Fortunately, the system’s Byakugan could be controlled, so his eyes wouldn’t change when not activated.
Upon closer thought, it wasn’t too far-fetched. Both the Sharingan and Byakugan were bloodlines left by the Otsutsuki clan.
The increased trust level brought significant returns. Shisui’s chakra increased due to the Sharingan activation, and Mokutsuki received four times that amount.
“The speed of chakra growth should significantly increase from now on,” Mokutsuki thought.
The Sharingan brought more than just 200 chakra points. The powerful spiritual energy boost would naturally accelerate Shisui’s chakra growth, benefiting Mokutsuki.
This time, the rewards were maxed out. Mokutsuki felt his efforts were well worth it.
The increase in trust level also brought new changes to the teacher-student interface.
【Student Uchiha Shisui has received an optional life mission】
【Life Mission: Uchiha and Konoha】
【Main Objective: Resolve the conflict between the Uchiha and Konoha, integrating the Uchiha into Konoha】
【Mission Progress: 0】
【Mission Rewards: Determined by mission completion rate and strength growth during the mission. Settlement occurs every 10% increase in progress】
【Note 1: If the Uchiha clan’s population drops too low, the mission automatically fails】
【Note 2: The life mission is challenging. Once accepted, only completion allows for a new life mission. Choose carefully】
【Note 3: The higher the difficulty, the greater the rewards】
Looking at Shisui’s life mission, Mokutsuki fell into deep thought.
According to the original story, this mission would fail because the Uchiha clan was annihilated.
However, the original massacre had multiple reasons. First, Obito’s Nine-Tails incident completely isolated the already distrusted Uchiha clan. Feeling isolated, the Uchiha contemplated rebellion, which caught the attention of Danzo, who coveted the Sharingan and saw it as an opportunity.
After some consideration, Mokutsuki decided to accept the mission.
Even without Shisui’s mission, Mokutsuki intended to intervene in Obito’s situation. By preventing Obito’s descent into darkness, the Uchiha clan wouldn’t face an existential crisis, thus avoiding an immediate mission failure.
Mokutsuki believes this mission was moderately complex, not overly challenging. However, a mission to achieve world peace would take a lot of work for the first task.
“Shisui, your eyes.” Obito noticed that Shisui’s eyes had turned red, and a single tomoe was spinning within.
At this moment, Obito felt a bit envious of Shisui. Not only did he receive an excellent birthday gift, but he also awakened the Uchiha clan’s Sharingan.
With the Sharingan, he wouldn’t lose to Guy so many times and wouldn’t have to do as many written exercises.
Shisui hadn’t paid much attention to his highly emotional state, but upon Obito’s reminder, he immediately noticed the anomaly.
“This is the power of the Sharingan?” Shisui felt his world become incredibly clear, seeing even the flight paths of insects.
“Refrain from showing the Sharingan in front of others for now,” Mokutsuki advised.
Gaining the Sharingan and its increased strength was beneficial, but Shisui had just turned six. At such a young age, awakening the Sharingan would attract significant attention if word spread.
Firstly, the Uchiha leaders like Fugaku would take Shisui even more seriously, which wasn’t necessarily bad, as it would provide Shisui with more resources.
The main concern was the impact outside the Uchiha clan, particularly from Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo.
Hiruzen Sarutobi might instill the Will of Fire in Shisui, making him the next Uchiha Kagami. Danzo, however, might either try to control Shisui as a tool for Konoha or become extremely wary, fearing the rise of another Uchiha Madara.
The potential risks outweighed the benefits, so Mokutsuki chose to have Shisui hide his Sharingan.
“Why hide it? Wouldn’t it be great to show it off?” Obito didn’t understand. If he had the Sharingan, he would use it often. Otherwise, what was the point of awakening it?
“I’ll explain more about the Uchiha clan and the village’s conflicts later,” Mokutsuki clarified.
“Okay, Mokutsuki-sensei, I understand,” Shisui nodded.
He trusted Mokutsuki-sensei wouldn’t harm him. If Mokutsuki said not to show the Sharingan, he wouldn’t. He wouldn’t even tell his uncle when he returned.
“Let’s focus on blowing out the candles and making a wish. Celebrating your birthday is the most important thing today,” Mokutsuki smiled warmly.
Standing before the cake, Shisui closed his eyes, contemplating his wish.
Logically, he knew his wishes wouldn’t magically come true, but today, he was so happy that he wanted to indulge in the ritual.
“I wish for this kind of life to continue, for the village, the clan, and our teacher to become better,” Shisui wished silently.
Then, Shisui opened his eyes and blew out the six candles.
“Shisui, what did you wish for?” Obito asked curiously.
“You’re not supposed to ask! If you say it out loud, it won’t come true,” Rin replied with a gentle smile.
After making the wish, they proceeded to eat the cake. This time, there was no cake battle; everyone chatted and ate peacefully.
“Shisui, how did you suddenly awaken the Sharingan?” Obito wanted to learn from his experience.
“I’m not sure. I just felt a special chakra surge through me, and then it happened,” Shisui thought, finding it difficult to describe the sensation.
“Continue training, and you can awaken the Sharingan too,” Mokutsuki said, taking a bite of the cake.
Awakening the basic Sharingan wasn’t too hard; the real challenge was awakening the Mangekyo Sharingan.
Without Hashirama cells or evolving into the Eternal Mangekyo, the Mangekyo was a significant burden, potentially crippling the user.
Happy times always pass quickly. Before they knew it, the night had deepened. After helping Shisui tidy up his house, everyone prepared to leave.
Shisui took out a million Ryo, offering it to Mokutsuki as additional funds for the ninja tool, remembering Mokutsuki’s earlier comment about the expensive materials affecting their meals.
Mokutsuki smiled and declined the money, saying, “For a teacher, seeing their student grow stronger is the best reward. If that short blade helps you gain an advantage in battle, I’ll be very happy.”
After saying this, Mokutsuki left, eager to test his new skill rewards.
“To become stronger…” Watching Mokutsuki’s departing figure, Shisui replayed his words in his mind.
