Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swords Begins in Kumogakure

Tamura Hao emerged from the basement humming a cheerful tune, and then saw Fat Sheep Teacher and Uchiha Chiri waiting there.

"You really did it!"

Uchiha Chiri leaned closer to examine her, her bright eyes, which seemed to shimmer with moisture, filled with surprise.

She brought those eyes over just to try it out, but she didn't expect it to be so effective.

Although I don't know the specifics, the joy on the kid's face tells me that he must have gained a lot.

"What a stroke of luck! What a stroke of luck!"

Tamura Hao tried to be modest, but then the older sister took it all in.

"Tsuna, if you don't want this little husband, then give him to me. I'll take him home to warm my bed."

Uchiha Chiri grew to love him more and more the more she looked at him; she was looking for a husband like him, and her clan was lacking such a top talent.

Tsunade rolled her eyes, too lazy to respond.

"Sister Zhili, I have a fiancée."

Tamura Hiroshi, who had been flirted with, reluctantly admitted that he was already taken.

Of course, if you don't mind, older sister, you can come and share too.

It's not that he's a womanizer, but rather that he's very confident in his own abilities. When he was traveling before, Jingyin used the Dragon Capture Hand technique, and even though her palms were red and swollen, it didn't make him unleash his full power.

He still remembered Shizune's pale face and self-reproachful eyes those days. If Shizune had to bear his fighting power alone, she would definitely break down.

So he doesn't mind being liked by older and younger women, as long as Shizune agrees.

"It's okay, my house is very big."

Uchiha Chiri was very open-minded, and judging from his physique, he must be very strong in combat. He wasn't Tsunade, so he might not be able to handle the challenge alone. It would be good to find someone to share the burden.

"You're less prone to being horny."

Tsunade glared at him, then looked at the traitor.

"Have you created that kind of eye through the fusion?"

She had heard her great-grandfather and great-great-grandfather talk about Madara Uchiha's experience of obtaining those eyes, and she had also discussed it with Chiri before, so she had some guesses.

Madara Uchiha was different from the rest of the Uchiha clan, just like their great-grandfather was to the Senju clan. Madara was a unique individual with extraordinary power.

That's why Madara Uchiha was able to push the Mangekyou Sharingan to a higher level after transplanting his younger brother's eyes. He couldn't do it with others. Even if they were transplanted, it would just be a simple transplant, and their eye powers would even conflict, making it impossible to use them freely.

This time, Chiri brought Madara Uchiha's original eyes, which still retained a bit of ocular power. Combined with Tajima Uchiha's eyes, the fusion should result in an improvement.

I just don't know how much he's improved, or whether he's reached the level of Madara Uchiha back then.

"It's just a change in pupil power; the pupil technique still belongs to those same eyes."

Tamura Hao nodded. Although the transformation was not perfect, it had indeed reached the level of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, and even had a bit of the power of the Rinnegan.

Unfortunately, he couldn't manifest the power of the Rinnegan, since he wasn't Madara Uchiha and couldn't truly elevate those eyes to the Rinnegan. Even Sasuke Uchiha needed the Sage of Six Paths to guide him in awakening his Rinnegan.

We can only think of a solution for this later. We'll see if we can cultivate the Yin and Yang powers and use them to stimulate and perhaps develop the true Rinnegan.

If this path doesn't work, then we can only try to create a Ten-Tails or a Divine Tree, or even a blood-red Rinnegan with tomoe.

"How long can you keep this up?"

Upon further inquiry, it was revealed that those eyes were not so easy to use, not to mention that this lecherous brat was not even from the Uchiha clan. Even if they were transplanted into that Monkey King clone, they would definitely have a hard time using them.

"Uh, one minute."

Scratching his head, Tamura Hao was quite helpless about this. After all, he wasn't an Uchiha ninja, so his efficiency in activating the Mangekyou Sharingan was low, and it required more chakra. There was nothing he could do about it.

Now that those eyes have been upgraded to the Eternal Eyes, their power has increased, but the corresponding consumption will also be greater. Even though the eyes and pupil power have been purified by the cheat, the consumption is still very high. It's just that there is no longer that sense of rejection towards one's own chakra.

"That's way too short!"

Before Tsunade could say anything, Uchiha Chiri expressed disappointment, but Tamura Hao felt that the older woman was taking the opportunity to make suggestive remarks and provoke him.

"Do as you say."

Turning to her best friend beside her, Tsunade agreed to her earlier suggestion.

"Is there a solution?"

Tamura Hiroshi wondered, "Is there really a way to solve this?"

"Didn't you already come up with a solution?"

Uchiha Chiri chuckled, finding the little guy quite amusing.

"A talent from the Celestial Race?"

Tamura Hiroshi pondered for a moment and came up with a possibility.

"It's not just about your talent as a member of the Immortal Clan, but also your understanding of the power of the Tailed Beasts. You can consider the Sharingan's eye power as a kind of Tailed Beast power, separate it out, and avoid those side effects by not going through the eyes' conversion."

They directly integrate and utilize their eye power as if it were the chakra of a tailed beast, or even a natural force.

"Anyway, all you want is Susanoo; you certainly don't care about the eyes or the eye techniques."

She has talked a lot with Tsunade these past few days, learned a lot, and gained a deeper understanding of how extraordinary this little guy is, which is why she became interested in him.

When I said I'd take him back as my mistress, I wasn't joking; I meant it. At least I wouldn't lose out.

Moreover, being single is tough; I really don't know how Tsunade, that tomboy, has managed to get through all these years.

Tamura Hiroshi thought about it carefully and felt that it had potential.

Ultimately, the Tailed Beasts were created by the Sage of Six Paths using the power of the Ten-Tails as a foundation and employing Yin-Yang Release. Yin Release created the physical form, while Yang Release infused life into the Tailed Beasts.

Susanoo is the ultimate manifestation of Yin Release, creating form from nothingness. If Yang Release is used to infuse it with life, although it may not reach the level of a Tailed Beast, it should be able to exist independently of the Sharingan.

Thinking about it that way, it seems like it might actually work.

"What are the Susanoo artifacts in your eyes?"

Seeing the light in the boy's eyes, Uchiha Chiri knew that he must have figured it out, and then asked him about the weapon of Susanoo.

"It is a Totsuka Blade called Ame no Ouhachi, a large katana in the form of flames, which can be enhanced with Fire Release and Amaterasu Flame."

After glancing at his own fat sheep teacher, Tamura Hao revealed the weapon of Susanoo.

"Is it easy to use? Fugaku's Susanoo weapon is an axe, capable of cutting and shattering everything. Should we switch to something else?"

Uchiha Chiri coaxed him with a tempting smile, knowing that the little guy preferred using an axe.

"Can this be exchanged?"

Tamura Hiroshi was a little confused. This thing could be exchanged?

"Of course it can be changed. The original power of the spiritual weapon can be exchanged using the transcription seal, and even the form of the spiritual weapon can be changed."

Whether it's a dojutsu, Susanoo itself, or the magical artifact it carries, the core is a certain characteristic created by Yin Release, and then a form is shaped using Yin Release chakra. As long as that characteristic is exchanged, you can shape the form yourself, and shape it into whatever you want.

Although there will still be some flaws, you managed to win over those eyes, so this little problem will definitely be no challenge for you.

Uchiha Chiri gave an affirmative answer, saying that it is indeed possible to exchange them, but it requires developing one's Mangekyou Sharingan to a certain extent and having precise control over one's eye power.

"It's been changed."

Once he received confirmation, Tamura Hiroshi did not hesitate at all.

He really didn't like those big katanas; they felt light and flimsy to use, far less satisfying than an axe.

He even considered using sealing techniques to seal Obito Uchiha's eye power into the Land of Iron after the battle axe was forged, to see if he could gain spatial attributes and then cut through space.

Now you can try sealing the Susanoo artifact inside, then sealing the Enma clone inside as a source of power, and finally slowly merging the two to form a true battle axe.

"Those Mangekyou Sharingan's eye techniques are Amaterasu and Kagutsuchi. Does anyone in your Uchiha clan need them?"

Then I thought of Uchiha Tajima's eye techniques. Since Susanoo can be separated, those two eye techniques are not very useful.

The main reason is that he incorporated Amaterasu's flames into the power of the Two-Tails. Because it is also a fusion of Yin and Fire attributes, similar to the Two-Tails' Fire Release, it was able to coexist.

He can unleash Amaterasu Flame with the power of the Two-Tails, and even control it precisely, so keeping those two eye techniques is pointless.

The most important point is that using eye techniques consumes eye power and also consumes a lot of chakra, making it somewhat useless. It would be better to use it for trading.

"I'll ask Fugaku if he wants it."

Uchiha Chiri did not refuse, presumably because it could be used for trade.

After all, Amaterasu Flame is quite powerful, especially when combined with the spiritual weapon Ame no Tail Feather and the eye technique Kagutsuchi, along with the First Hokage cells obtained from Tsunade, it's enough to last for a long time.

Moreover, all of Fugaku's eye techniques are supportive; he lacks offensive eye techniques.

Next, Tamura Hao discussed the idea of ​​Susanoo independence with Uchiha Chiri. Although he had obtained Uchiha Tajima's memories and knew about the Uchiha clan's heritage, some things cannot be known simply by being told.

Uchiha Chiri was undoubtedly a top-tier figure, especially in the application and development of the Sharingan. Izanami is the best proof of this, directly and forcibly brainwashing the user.

Fugaku Uchiha arrived quickly. In fact, after discussing it with Tsunade, Uchiha Chiri had already sent a message to Fugaku Uchiha in the Land of Hot Springs to come over.

The original purpose was to transplant the First Hokage's cells into Fugaku Uchiha, so that he could use those Mangekyou Sharingan for a longer time and not go blind too early.

Now there are more trading points.

"Haojun, we've finally met."

Fugaku Uchiha, who had been secretly led into the camp by Uchiha Chiri, looked at the burly young man in front of him and sighed with admiration.

He had heard of this person's reputation, especially in the last year or two.

He was a genius beyond comprehension; even someone with a kaleidoscope would have to admit defeat.

"I've always wanted to visit Chief Fugaku."

Tamura Hao smiled in response. Now that Fat Sheep Teacher and Uchiha Chiri have acted as matchmakers, the Uchiha can be considered allies.

"Don't delay, get the surgery done quickly, then go back to the Land of Hot Springs, and don't let those people find out."

Uchiha Chiri gestured for them to start quickly. She had sent Uchiha Fugaku over secretly to avoid letting others know that the Uchiha were also involved in this matter, as it would make them more wary.

"I want those eyes. I possess the Sharingan power that our Uchiha clan has accumulated over thousands of years. Besides using them to exchange for those eyes, I also ask that you, Lord Hao, take my two children and Shisui as your disciples. Finally, I ask that you grant me the position of Hokage. Any one of the three of them is acceptable."

Fugaku Uchiha knew that time was limited, so he directly laid out his bargaining chips and conditions.

The eye power accumulated over thousands of years is one of the foundations of the Uchiha clan. It is formed by the eye power contributed by countless clan members after their deaths over thousands of years, and its energy is extremely vast.

Unfortunately, it was too cluttered and unusable.

Previous predecessors attempted to guide the inner power of the pupil into their bodies, and then they went insane; none of them could withstand it.

So this makes that heritage a double-edged sword—tasteless to consume, yet a pity to discard—and now it's perfect to put it out for trade.

"As long as their thinking is sound and not extreme, becoming Hokage is not a problem."

Tamura Hao thought it wasn't a big problem, and had even planned it long ago. Now it would be better for Uchiha Fugaku to use it as a bargaining chip.

Seeing that Tamura Hao agreed, and then looking at Tsunade, and seeing that she did not object, Uchiha Fugaku raised his hands, formed hand seals, and used the Summoning Jutsu to summon a gourd.

"what?"

Tamura Hao's gaze instantly fell on the gourd, and he could tell that it was a top-notch ninja tool that was no less powerful than the red gourd.

"The transaction is limited to the power of the eye within."

Seeing the boy's burning passion, Fugaku Uchiha quickly reminded him.

The power of the pupils inside can be used for trading, but not this gourd.

This is a powerful weapon, and it's very valuable.

"This must be the Sake-Kari Tachi from the legendary Totsuka-no-Tsurugi."

Tsunade recognized the gourd's true nature; it was very similar to a legendary ninja sword recorded in the clan's history.

Fugaku Uchiha did not respond, which can be considered as tacit agreement.

"Sake-cutting knife."

Tamura Hao thought of the Totsuka Blade, the spirit weapon of Itachi Uchiha's Susanoo in the future, which was the spirit weapon version of the Sake-Kari no Tachi.

The Totsuka Sword is a series, just like the name Kusanagi Sword, referring to a system rather than a single sword.

The Sake-Kari Tachi is one of the more powerful Totsuka Blades. Even the future Spirit Weapon version could instantly seal Orochimaru. If it weren't for the cursed seal transferring his soul, he would have been sealed away long ago.

This is indeed a powerful weapon. I never expected it to be inside the Uchiha clan, and it even contains the Sharingan power accumulated by the Uchiha clan over thousands of years.

"Fugaku-kun, please perform the surgery first. I will go down and seal your eye power."

Tamura Hao took the sake-cutting katana and went into the basement below, activating all the multi-layered barriers before uncorking the sake-cutting katana and unleashing the crimson eye power within.

He activated the Bagua seal at the You hour position of the Twelve Hours Seal in his abdomen. That was the tenth hour position in the Twelve Hours Seal, right next to the Shen hour position where the Nine-Tails' power was sealed. This was the position he reserved for Susanoo.

After the breakthrough, he not only upgraded and strengthened the Yin Seal, but also reinforced the Bagua Seal in his abdomen, making the inner sealing space more spacious and stable.

Although the Sharingan's power, accumulated over a thousand years by the Uchiha clan, is astonishing, perhaps even comparable to the giant Tenseigan on the moon, the upgraded and reinforced Eight Trigrams Seal can still withstand it.

At the same time, the Bagua Seal was operating at full power, transforming these pupil powers and allowing them to be absorbed, refined, and stored by the Creation Immortal Lotus. Meanwhile, the fragments of jade from the Golden Finger also purified these pupil powers.

The originally scarlet pupil power turned bright red, and the dark and chaotic negative power was gone.

After these pupil powers were transformed and purified, Tamura Hao guided the ape demon clone to absorb them and transfer them into the pair of eternal eyes. He then used the pupil power of the eternal eyes to quickly devour and assimilate them, making them nourishment for the growth of the eternal eyes' pupil power.

He had previously regretted not having enough Eternal Eye power, but now this accumulation from the Uchiha clan has made up for it.

After confirming that the Eternal Eye was steadily absorbing and assimilating those eye powers, Tamura Hao finally stepped out of the basement, while Uchiha Fugaku had already completed the transplantation of Hashirama's cells and Uchiha Tajima's Mangekyou Sharingan.

Previously, he had only separated the Susanoo from those eyes; he hadn't activated the eye technique, mainly because it wasn't very useful to him.

Now it's a good time to trade it to Uchiha Fugaku.

Fugaku Uchiha chose the same location for transplanting Hashirama's cells as Madara Uchiha, at the heart area, which is connected to the heart and the Gate of Death.

This is where the body's life force is at its peak; transplanting here will maximize the effect.

Of course, the risks are also very high. Although this Hashirama cell has had its Wood Release power removed and its corrosive power greatly reduced, it is only relative to a complete Hashirama cell. It is still fatal to a ninja.

It was only because Fugaku Uchiha awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan that he was able to suppress it to some extent, and with the addition of Tajima Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan, that the First Hokage's cells were able to be stabilized.

Of course, the biggest factor is that Fugaku Uchiha is an Uchiha, and his bloodline is the same as that of the Senju clan, so they have a high degree of compatibility.

"How am I supposed to unleash ninjutsu now? Do I have to poke two holes in my clothes?"

Tamura Hao looked at it curiously. Although he had done this to the ape demon clone before, he needed a field of vision to truly use the pupil technique of those eyes.

He also confirmed that after those eyes were transplanted into Fugaku Uchiha, the power within them was immediately covered and corrupted, no longer the kind that his own cheat-like ability had purified.

The power purified by one's own cheat is like clear water, while the chakra of others is like ink; once they come into contact, they will be quickly corrupted and assimilated.

That purity seemed to only apply to herself.

"You really need to poke two holes in your clothes."

Uchiha Chiri, who was also watching from the side, nodded, believing that only by damaging the clothes could these eyes be used properly.

"I transplanted two optic nerves into him. Although there will be some delay, it will be enough for him to use his pupil techniques."

After completing the final check, Tsunade felt there was no major problem. After all, she was only using these eyes to perform eye techniques, not to actually use them to see through her opponents. As long as she could perform the technique, that was fine.

"How do you intend to fuse and control my Eight-Fold Golden Artifact?"

After sensing that the First Hokage's cells and the Mangekyou Sharingan were both stable, Fugaku Uchiha looked up at the young man in front of him.

He was brought to the camp by Uchiha Zhili, and when he arrived, he mentioned the deal, including his Susanoo weapon, the Eightfold Insight Golden Axe.

But it's not that simple. With the Kaleidoscope Sharingan he acquired through the trade as a foundation, using the Heavenly Feather Blade spiritual weapon wouldn't be a problem. However, the other party was simply trading his Susanoo spiritual weapon, and even with the purest spiritual weapon characteristics, it still wasn't that useful.

"I do not intend to reshape it into a Susanoo artifact."

Tamura Hao did not intend to reproduce it as a spiritual weapon, but rather planned to use it as material to seal into his own battle axe using sealing techniques, thus giving the battle axe those two characteristics.

The Expansion Technique can be applied to external objects, such as clothing, armor, and weapons, but that would consume a lot of chakra, so in the past, people would just use oversized weapons.

Now things are different. With Kabuto as a material, a high-quality battle axe can be forged, the kind that has chakra-conducting metal.

Furthermore, the characteristics of Fugaku Uchiha's Susanoo are very compatible with Kabuto's weapon. Kabuto's hammer has the power to smash everything, while the axe can cut everything in half.
