Chapter 5: Chapter 5: I'm a Four Tomoe
Hearing the "Oh yeah, oh yeah" singing, Shisui's face twitched slightly. This house, despite having only one person, was always so lively.
"Yo yo check it out, Little Shisui, you're back. Dinner will be ready soon, go wash up and get ready to eat."
Hearing the door open, Itsuki turned his head.
He was clearly in a high mood.
He couldn't stop.
Watching Itsuki, who was twirling a big spoon and constantly spinning and jumping, Shisui's eyelid twitched.
He thought of some rap master, but in front of Itsuki, that master would just be a kid.
Also, what does eating have to do with washing that thing?
Deep breath!
Calm down.
A delicious aroma wafted over.
Shisui's expression changed slightly.
He had to admit, Itsuki's personality was troublesome, but he was an excellent cook.
He was arguably the best chef in Konoha!
The dishes he made were visually stunning, almost like art.
Moreover!
He not only made great dishes but also created visually beautiful and uniquely flavored pastries, which were loved by Konoha's children and women.
His brewed sake, although Shisui hadn't tasted it, had been sought out several times by the Hokage himself, which proved its excellent flavor.
There was even a rumor that Tsunade publicly acknowledged Itsuki as her disciple partly because of the sake.
A perfect and reasonable freeloading from teacher to student!
Actually!
Strictly speaking, Itsuki was the disciple of one of the Sannin, Orochimaru!
Tsunade and Jiraiya only later claimed Itsuki as their student, with the legitimacy of their teaching yet to be confirmed.
During the Third Shinobi War, Orochimaru noticed Itsuki.
Itsuki speculated that it was largely because his presence filled the void left by Nawaki, Tsunade's brother, who bore a few similarities to him.
Except.
Itsuki was an Uchiha, a sensitive identity. At that time, Orochimaru, as a disciple of the Hokage and a hot candidate for the Fourth Hokage, did not dare to accept a student lightly.
Even though Itsuki was a descendant of Uchiha Kagami.
It wasn't until later that Orochimaru publicly accepted Itsuki as his disciple and carefully taught him ninjutsu in a very high-profile manner.
That day, Minato Namikaze was appointed as the Fourth Hokage!
...
"Itsuki, put that down for a moment, I have something to tell you."
Shisui's expression was serious.
"What is it?"
Itsuki, slightly taken aback, put down what he was holding, sat on a chair, and also adopted a serious expression: "Judging by your look, could it be that you..."
"Stop!"
Shisui quickly interrupted, eagerly saying, "Itsuki, don't say anything, just listen to me."
"Sigh!" Itsuki sighed and murmured, "Fine, I know, I know everything. Just say it. Are you constipated and want me to make some laxative food, or is your hemorrhoid acting up, and you want me to..."
"I said, don't say anything, just listen to me!"
Shisui couldn't help but shout.
Constipated?
Hemorrhoid?
Even if I had these problems, how would you know?
It's terrifying to think about!
"You yelled at me?" Itsuki's eyes welled up, looking at Shisui, trembling as he spoke, "We're brothers, real brothers, and you yelled at me over such a small thing? You've changed, Shisui. You've become someone I don't recognize. Go, just go, I don't want to see you."
That last sentence was full of grievance and resentment.
It began!
It's happening again!
The neighbors around heard and shook their heads.
Shisui, Shisui, why did you mess with Itsuki Uchiha?
Shisui felt utterly powerless, collapsing into a chair, his lips moving: "Brother, I was wrong."
This guy started acting up again.
Even though it looked so fake, but...
Precisely because it was fake, it made it even more frustrating.
Do you want the other person to keep pretending?
Do you want it to never end?
If not, just admit your mistake honestly.
Otherwise, he has plenty of tricks to make you bow down!
Itsuki's attitude became somewhat condescending: "Where did you go wrong?"
Shisui choked up: "I am never right. As long as I'm in front of you, I am always wrong."
"My existence is a mistake."
"Your second name is Uchiha Itsuki, my second name is Uchiha Mistake!"
Shisui was curious about how colorful his expression must be right now.
"Sigh!" Itsuki sighed, "Since you realize that, fine, fine, I forgive you."
"Can I...can I speak now?"
Shisui's eyes also welled up.
Itsuki's crying was obviously fake, but...
He really felt like crying.
"You may speak!"
Itsuki adjusted his posture, and his expression also became indifferent.
Hmph, there was no one he couldn't deal with.
Shisui of the Body Flicker?
Already under his control.
No matter how the timeline of the ninja world changed, certain key figures would not change.
And the formidable abilities of these individuals wouldn't change.
Shisui was undoubtedly one of them!
As a younger brother, he had a natural advantage, so how could he not make a move?
Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan ability: Kotoamatsukami!
Itsuki bet that if Madara knew, he would definitely say: "I, Uchiha Madara, acknowledge you as the strongest..."
Shisui wanted to speak but couldn't help pausing.
Damn it!
The atmosphere was ruined again.
He had been so serious just now!
"I want to ask, is your Sharingan still a three-tomoe?"
Let's get straight to the point.
After all, this is his own younger brother.
Besides.
Shisui really didn't have the patience to go step by step.
Beating around the bush?
Get lost!
Facing Itsuki, being able to say a complete sentence was already quite an achievement.
For playing tricks, Itsuki was definitely at the Hokage level.
Itsuki answered bluntly: "No!"
"Really?"
Although he had already guessed, Shisui was still almost jumping up in surprise.
Was he right?
Itsuki also had a Mangekyou!
Shisui's breathing became rapid.
The Uchiha clan had two Mangekyou holders?
This was definitely enough to shake the entire Konoha, even the ninja world.
The structure within Konoha would also change as a result.
If not handled in time, the flames of war would quickly spread throughout Konoha.
Thinking about the madness of the Uchiha radicals when they learned this news, Shisui's palms were sweaty, and his heart was pounding.
Itsuki replied seriously: "Really, I now have... a four-tomoe!"
"..."
Shisui wore a pained expression: "Itsuki, be serious, please, just this once, just be serious this once."
What the hell is a four-tomoe?
Are you trying to go to heaven?
There has never been a record in Uchiha history of a four-tomoe!
Did your eyes bloom?
"Saying that your question is weird." Itsuki looked bored, pouting: "'Itsuki, is your Sharingan still a three-tomoe?' Come on, if I didn't say it's a four-tomoe, then what should it be? Regressed to a two-tomoe? Or, what do you hope my tomoe count is?"
"Shing!"
Shisui didn't want to waste words, he stared at Itsuki, his eyes bursting with power, and the three tomoe quickly changed, forming a pinwheel shuriken pattern in his eyes.
Mangekyou!
Itsuki was stunned: "Shisui, my dear elder brother, did your eyes bloom?"
"...This is the upgrade of the three-tomoe, Mangekyou!"
Shisui said solemnly: "Mangekyou Sharingan, the ultimate eye of the Uchiha!"
"The upgrade of the Sharingan?"
Itsuki's expression turned complex.
Ultimate?
Get lost!
Illiterate!
Above you, there's the Eternal Mangekyou, and above that, the Rinnegan!
Your ultimate is the Mangekyou?
Did you eat the rest of the plot?
Oh, you died before reaching that point, then never mind.
The world developed, but you died early.
But.
Thinking about the terror of Kotoamatsukami, Itsuki couldn't help but feel weak.
Even knowing he wouldn't use it on him.
Shisui said seriously: "Itsuki, now, do you still think I'm joking?"
Itsuki thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes."
"Why?"
Shisui couldn't help but say: "Seeing is believing, haven't you seen my eyes?"
Itsuki sighed helplessly, and his eyes showed three tomoe, then slowly started changing.
Finally...
Four tomoe appeared!
True Four Tomoe!
Shisui: "..."
Itsuki said faintly: "Don't look like your jaw dropped. I already said, I'm a four-tomoe. You always think I'm lying. Sigh!"
"Where is the trust between people?"
"Is it clogged in your intestines because of constipation?"
"People's hearts are not what they used to be!"
Shisui: "..."
He stared straight at Itsuki.
He broke down!
He was ruined!
This...is really a four-tomoe?
Shisui wanted to pull his hair
out.
Between the three-tomoe and Mangekyou, there was such a thing?
Where did it come from?
No, wait!
Shisui suddenly realized.
He was led astray by Itsuki.
What four-tomoe?
This is just Mangekyou!
Ordinary three-tomoe meant three tomoe in the eye.
Itsuki's, upon closer inspection, looked like an ouroboros, linking four tomoe together.
It looked simple at a glance, but upon closer inspection, it had a certain eerie depth.
This should be a form of the Mangekyou!
"Mangekyou!"
"This is the Mangekyou!"
"Itsuki, this is your Mangekyou!"
Shisui couldn't help but shout.
