Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

Following the last vestige of fading breath, Uchiha Gin found Jigen's "relics" in the nearby bushes: a red belly with its mouth still mechanically moving.
"It's different from the last one, is it a new model?"

This was incredibly valuable experimental material. Uchiha Gin squinted and examined it closely, confirming that there were no hidden tricks or sabotage techniques concealed in the abdomen. With a flick of his hand, he pocketed it.

By dissecting the abdominal flap he had previously torn from the clone, he discovered that this thing was less of a mechanical external tool and more of a living organism.
The ability to devour condensed tailed beast chakra without side effects—how could Uchiha Gin not be curious about the identity of such a creature?
"I hope you live a long life and don't end up like your predecessors, who died unexpectedly."

Looking down at the slightly panting red-bellied beast in his hand, Uchiha Gin gave a kind smile and said very gently,

"Heh! Heh! Heh!"

As if sensing Uchiha Gin's "goodwill," the weakened red-bellied creature, after a brief moment of confusion, let out a terrified cry.
"Don't worry, you'll have your turn to call out tonight."

Uchiha Gin reached out to comfort the trembling red belly, while countless tadpole-like incantations sprouted from his palm, tightly enveloping it, rendering it unable to utter a sound from that moment on.

"Emperor Brother"

Just as he finished dealing with Red Belly, Madara Uchiha arrived with Sasuke, who had recovered considerably.
"Please address me as Mr. E from now on."

Upon hearing this old title, Uchiha Gin, who had tossed the red-bellied genitals into the four-dimensional chrysanthemum behind him, gently shook his head and quickly came up with a more meaningful name for himself.
"Mr. E?"

"Now I have transcended the low-level pleasure of controlling knights and have turned to pursue the supreme path of evolution."

Seeing the bewildered look on Madara and Uchiha's faces, Gin put his hands behind his back, adopting a mysterious and inscrutable expression.

"From now on, the name of Emperor Knight is entrusted to you. I hope you will not fail this name full of mission."

"You really want to leave it to me?"

Madara Uchiha was taken aback by these words. He had thought Gin Uchiha was just joking, but it turned out the other party was serious.
"Young man, I believe in you!"

"Oh right, I almost forgot to ask, what are you two doing here?"

After a while, Uchiha Gin noticed that his younger cousin was still in shock over the change of identity, so he changed the subject and asked the two of them why they had come.
"I came here following their guidance."

Coming to his senses, Madara Uchiha didn't hide anything. He opened the card box, pulled out three cards that were flashing with a strange light, and showed them to Gin Uchiha.

"I see."

Upon seeing the Three-Tails, Four-Tails, and Eight-Tails cards in his younger cousin's hand, Uchiha Gin immediately showed a look of realization.

Although these Tailed Beast Cards only contain enough chakra to support one transformation, it is genuine Tailed Beast chakra, and it will sense the presence of the Tailed Beast itself nearby.
"Do you know what this is?"

Madara Uchiha, who had long been filled with doubts, quickly pressed for more information.
"This is the true mission of Knight Decade."

"The true mission?"

Looking at Uchiha Gin with a questioning expression, Madara Uchiha racked his brains but couldn't recall what good things Decade had ever done. It was already good enough that he hadn't done any bad things.

"That's right, destroying everything while connecting everything, that's Kamen Rider Decade's true mission."

"Wait! Explain yourself before you leave!"

After saying that, Uchiha Gin turned and disappeared into the Shadow Realm gate that had opened behind him, leaving Uchiha Madara standing there dumbfounded, cosplaying as Er Kang.

"Ban, what do we do next?"

Only after Uchiha Gin left did Black Zetsu, whose pressure had suddenly lessened, finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Destroy everything. Connect everything."

Madara Uchiha was still pondering his earlier words, head bowed. After a long while, as if he had figured something out, he suddenly raised his head, held up the three shining Tailed Beast Cards in front of him, and said with certainty,

"I don't know, but I have a feeling they will give me the answer."

"Erzhuzi, do you have the courage to walk with the devil?"

"Aren't we partners?"

Looking at Sasuke's sincere face, Madara felt a warmth in his heart. He then turned his gaze to the battlefield in the distance, his eyes filled with fervor.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what title should we give this scene?"

Uchiha Gin didn't actually leave. Standing within the Shadow Realm, he stroked his chin, looking at the two people walking together with a strange expression.
"The Retired Hokage's Little Black Zetsu Wife"?
The Secret Life of the Ninja World's Asura and Black Zetsu?
"Sigh~ The child has grown up, and it's time to let go. I just hope he doesn't go down a dead end."

Gently shaking his head, Uchiha Gin dispersed the indescribable images in his mind. His younger cousin was already over fifty years old; it was time for him to have his own life.
But then again.
Is Black Zetsu male or female?

Uchiha Gin vaguely remembered that the Yin-Yang Release creations had an exceptionally high degree of malleability, which meant that...
"If that's really the case, then that's incredibly stylish!"

The country of valley,
Deep within a secret room of the Valley Kingdom Biotechnology Co., Ltd.'s research lab, a figure sitting cross-legged suddenly trembled.
"what!"

As a pair of cold, sinister eyes slowly opened, a shrill scream instantly echoed throughout the entire secret room.
Fortunately, the soundproofing of the sealed room was quite good, preventing the abrupt sound from spreading. Otherwise, everyone in this research institute would have been in for a world of trouble.

"You despicable half-breed!"

Having relived the agony of his crushed testicles, Cixian leaned against the wall, shakily standing up, his dark eyes filled with a bloodthirsty intent.
Despite being a superior being, he repeatedly suffered setbacks at the hands of Gin Uchiha, a filthy half-breed.
This kind of shame cannot be washed away simply with blood!
"hiss"

The initial throbbing pain had barely subsided when the damned burning sensation returned, causing Cixian to gasp in pain. Her straightened back instantly slumped back down, the white snake-skinned monster's figure a nightmare in her mind.

"Don't let me find out who you are."

Jigen vowed to capture Uchiha Gin and show him the legendary Ten Tortures of the Otsutsuki.

The first step was to lock him in a cage containing Kaguya and subject him to inhuman torture.

Previous events recap

Konoha's branch secretary, Uchiha Kagami, went alone to the allied forces' headquarters to stop their invasion of the Land of Fire. After uncovering their conspiracy, he was enraged by Onoki and the others' attack, and a battle was about to break out.
With the power of his Mangekyou Sharingan and Blue Diamond Cone, Mirror temporarily suppressed the transformed Onoki and the others, but he consumed a large amount of chakra in the battle against the mechanical Eight-Tails.
Although he successfully defeated the mechanical Eight-Tails, he was unable to maintain his gigantic form and reverted to his human form.

"Uchiha Kagami, surrender!"

Floating in mid-air, Onoki watched as Uchiha Kagami slowly emerged from the particles of light, and instantly regained his confidence, his voice unconsciously rising a few decibels.

Meanwhile, Gui and Xi, standing to his left and right, also wore expressions of fierce anticipation.

"You should be unable to transform again, so why not just surrender? Our Land of Lightning has always treated prisoners of war well."

After his battle with Uchiha Kagami, Hii ​​wasn't in good shape either; his face was pale. Seeing his own deep sorrow, he immediately stepped forward to speak up for him.
"You want me to surrender? Dream on!"

Looking down at the dull blue sapphire cone in his hand, Uchiha Kagami knew that his transformation device had entered a considerable cooldown period. However, as a proud Uchiha, the word "surrender" did not exist in his dictionary.

"Since he's so stubborn, let's all take action together!"

Seeing that Uchiha Kagami was determined not to surrender, Katsura said coldly,

"Whoosh!"

After saying that, he rushed out first. The ground beneath his feet turned into a smooth, mirror-like ice surface under the power of Ice Release. With the huge reduction in friction, his movement speed increased dramatically. "Hmph! Don't forget, even without it, I am still an Uchiha."

Uchiha Kagami snorted coldly, retracting the Blue Sapphire Cone. His eyes blazed with crimson light, the eerie patterns emanating a chilling aura. A phantom rapidly materialized beside him.
"It's this move again."

Seeing the blue turtle knight appear beside Uchiha Kagami, Onoki, who had been holding back, frowned, a vague unease creeping into his heart.

"You don't need to worry, such a clone is no match for absolute power."

However, Xi, who had once shrouded the creation of Uchiha Kagami's Mangekyou Sharingan, was not so worried.

It's nothing but a poorly made imposter.

"You go and deal with him."

Jing glanced at the blue knight beside her and gave a soft command.
Swish!
The blue figure vanished instantly, and an ice path identical to the one beneath Gui's feet appeared.

"Well done!"

Despite her menacing demeanor, Gui felt no fear as she saw her alter ego charging towards her.

Even that muscle-bound idiot Xi could easily defeat him, so wouldn't he be a piece of cake for him?
Thinking of this, a slight smile appeared on his lips. He conjured a crystal-clear ice spear in his hand and hurled it with all his might at the figure opposite him.
"Zero Degree Ice Gun!"

The ice spear, containing absolute zero, instantly inflicts terrifying cold upon contact, penetrating the body and causing fatal damage to vulnerable organs.
"Bah!"

A piercing metallic clang rang out, and the blue knight, instead of dodging, chose to use his heavy breastplate to block Gui's attack.
"Crackling sound."

The ice spear pierced through the blue knight's armor as expected. Watching the crack widen on his chest, a smug smile appeared on Gui's face.

"Crack!"

The next second, his smile froze on his face.
"This is... pfft!"

Following the second sound, Gui lowered her head in disbelief, looking at the rapidly expanding cracks on her chest and the icy chill seeping into her body.
Before he could even voice his question, a sweet taste welled up in his throat, abruptly stopping the utterance.

A jet of blood, streaked with ice, gushed from Gui's mouth, soaking his opposite clone. The classic blue and red color scheme created an eerie beauty.

"how is this possible?"

Seeing Katsura slowly collapse to the ground, Onoki and Nozomi's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
Dude, how come you fell down before you even got hit?
"Xi! Hurry up and save them!"

Onoki was the first to calm down and immediately ordered the stunned Nozomi to go and rescue her teammate.

"I know it without you having to tell me!"

Regaining his senses, Xi immediately nodded in agreement. Lightning crackled around him, and he transformed into a bolt of lightning, rushing forward and returning in the blink of an eye, a blood-soaked figure in his hand.
"Gui, what's wrong with you?"

Ignoring his teammates' injuries, Onoki, eager to understand the enemy's bizarre tactics, grabbed the barely alive person in question and began questioning them.
"Cough cough cough, that clone is strange. The damage I inflicted on it was reflected back onto me."

Gui coughed up several pieces of bloody ice, her face deathly pale, and slowly said...

As expected of a veteran powerhouse with many years of experience, he discovered the secret of Uchiha Kagami's eye technique in just one glance.
But there's nothing that can be done about it; Jingzai's eye technique is just that simple and brutal. After all, he's not exactly a genius, and he's destined to be unable to handle anything more complex.
"Then why was I perfectly fine when I killed him before?"

Xi touched the cow horns on his head in confusion.

"I understand. Only when the clone is attacked by the imitator will it be damaged."

After his gaze lingered between Katsura and Nozomi for a moment, Onoki quickly came up with the answer.
"I didn't expect you to find out so quickly."

Uchiha Kagami, who had overheard the conversation between the three, spoke with a regretful expression. As he spoke, the injured clone shattered like a mirage.

The Third Mizukage was already severely injured, so there was no point in continuing to exist this clone.

"Who among you wants to be the next him?"

Pointing to the lifeless body of Katsura, Uchiha Kagami spoke softly, a faint glint of crimson light in his eyes causing Onoki and the other to hesitate.
"Little Potato, have you thought of any ideas?"

Hiko didn't want to suffer the same fate as the Third Mizukage.
"Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to go all in together."

"Huh? Going to our deaths together?"

"No, I bet he can only create one clone."

Onoki was certain that he was gambling; if Uchiha Kagami could create two clones at once, he would immediately run away.

"Shh!"

"Whoosh!"

With trepidation, the two of them positioned themselves one in front of the other, blocking Uchiha Kagami in the middle.

They exchanged a glance, and without hesitation, neither chose to attack.

"Qiang!"

The sound of a sword being drawn rang out, and Onoki's eyes lit up instantly. Uchiha Kagami had drawn his weapon; didn't that mean there was only one clone?
"Ha ha!"

He let out a wild laugh, his eyes full of mockery as he looked at Uchiha Kagami, who was wielding a scale-splitting longsword.
"You can only create one clone at a time after all."

"So what if it is, so what if it isn't? Apart from my eye technique, my sword is just as effective."

Raising his Blood-Drinking Sword, Jing's face was filled with fighting spirit. Being able to use his eye technique to ambush and kill Gui was already beyond his expectations.
Now that the secret has been exposed, continuing to use the power of the Kaleidoscope is nothing more than a waste of eye power.

Before Onoki and the other could utter any more threats, Uchiha Kagami bent over, assuming a charging stance, unleashing the Body Flicker Technique he had honed for years to its limit.

"Instant Fire Blade!"

As the scorching flames stained the blade, his figure split in two, transforming into two streaks of fire that rushed towards the two figures behind him. In the instant they closed in, countless flaming blades poured forth.

"Instant Fire Strike Blade!"

The ninjutsu he learned from his uncle finally came in handy.

"Boom!"

Amidst the towering flames, Onoki was propelled into the air by the scorching blades. Looking at the charred sword wound on his chest, he couldn't help but curse angrily.

"Yin Fei, your father!"

On the other side, a somewhat disheveled Xi also landed at Onoki's feet, his body covered in scorch marks. He angrily shouted,
"With so many invincibility frames, should I attack you?"

Jing landed in the firelight, holding a flaming longsword in one hand, and shook his head with a deep expression.
"I'm sorry, I can't let you succeed." (End of Chapter)
