Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha lacks motivation.

Chapter 36 Seeing is not always believing, but I am really not myself.

Looking at the strangely-looking old prison guard opposite him with a look of horror, Uchiha Gin subconsciously took a few steps back to distance himself from him.

He only wanted information, and the other party was actually after his body! Bah, you gay old man!

Even though he was inwardly complaining, he couldn't show it because of the intelligence from six years ago, so he could only bite the bullet and say it.

"Thank you for your kind words, senior. Let's move on to the next question."

"Who was that person who was imprisoned six years ago?"

Uchiha Gin asked the question he was eager to know the answer to.

"That's what they call it."

The old jailer replied slowly, "Traitor."

"traitor?"

Upon hearing this term, Uchiha Gin frowned again. What exactly happened six years ago that a traitor would appear?

"Who is that traitor?"

Uchiha Gin, who had some vague guesses in his mind, asked.

"Just as you guessed, they are members of the Uchiha clan."

The old jailer's tone was somewhat heavy.

"So this has nothing to do with the attack on the tribe's territory six years ago, right?"

Uchiha Gin was in a bit of a headache; the person he had captured turned out to be a traitor from the Uchiha clan.

According to his understanding, the Uchiha clan has actually had internal conflicts for many years.

The reason for this is that the Uchiha clan members are inherently very emotional and have strong attachments to people and things, so they often break out into internal strife due to disagreements.

"An attack on tribal territory? Hah."

The old jailer heard Uchiha Gin's self-talk and let out a strange laugh.

"What do you mean?"

Sensing the old jailer's words had a hidden meaning, Uchiha Gin couldn't help but ask.

"It's laughable that they tried to portray that incident as an attack."

After a cold laugh, the old jailer made a startling remark.

"What exactly do you know?"

Uchiha Gin was shocked. He had only wanted to investigate the identity of the person who was imprisoned six years ago, but he had unexpectedly uncovered a more secretive incident.

A moment later, Uchiha Gin clutched his throbbing head.

"But I was the sole survivor of that attack. I witnessed firsthand the massacre of us old, weak, women, and children by the Kaguya clan."

The painful memories that had been sealed away were once again exposed, and the intense stimulation caused him to have a splitting headache and his eyes to turn blood red, making him look like a man-eating beast.

"How can you be so sure that what you saw is real?"

The old jailer looked at Uchiha Gin, who was clutching his forehead and panting, and sighed softly.

How do you know that you are really yourself?

The old jailer's words were like a thunderclap, exploding in his mind with a bang.

Uchiha Gin felt as if someone had opened his skull and was frantically stirring it inside with a stick.

His eyes were wide open, as if they were about to explode. From a third-person perspective, the two tomoe in Uchiha Gin's left eye, which had never moved an inch, were now spinning rapidly, and a third tomoe was slowly emerging during this process.

"Ahhhhh."

The intense pain caused Uchiha Gin to let out a loud wail, the pitiful sound alerting the guards at the door.

Upon hearing the news, Uchiha Kagami and Uchiha Jiro rushed to the scene immediately. They found that the person lying in the cell was none other than Uchiha Gin, whom they had just spoken with.

He was covered in cold sweat, his face was deathly pale, and his eyes were tightly closed. The two men immediately began to rescue him.

However, they were unable to wake the other person by any means. Knowing that there was no other way, the two immediately carried Uchiha Gin and ran to the medical point in the clan's territory.

While still unconscious, Uchiha Gin dreamt of an unfamiliar scene.

In an unfamiliar hospital room, a young girl sat kneeling in one corner, while an older boy sat in another corner.

The scene shifts to ruins, where a girl rests her head against a boy's chest, crying and saying something. The boy's eyes are now filled with blood.

In the final scene, the boy looks up, and a bewitching red moon hangs in the sky.

At the medical station in the Uchiha clan compound, Uchiha Gin lay on a hospital bed, with two teenagers sitting beside him.

Uchiha Izuna looked at Uchiha Gin with a tense expression, who was constantly changing facial expressions, and turned to ask the boy beside him.

"Big brother, is my cousin dead?"

When asked the question, Madara Uchiha's face darkened, and he slapped the incoherent Izuna Uchiha on the head.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Didn't you hear Elder Miao say that this guy is as strong as an ox? He probably fainted because of an old injury from the last mission."

Uchiha Miao, who had just gone out, told them that Uchiha Gin's coma was caused by a recurrence of an old injury.

The mission logs of Uchiha Fuuka and others clearly mention that Uchiha Gin was attacked by the Senju clan and suffered a head injury.

Outside the door, Uchiha Tajima, whom they hadn't seen in a long time, was talking to the chubby Uchiha Yan. The clan head, Uchiha Tajima, frowned and spoke coldly.

"Elder Yan, what exactly happened to Yin in the dungeon?"

Uchiha Yan was covered in sweat. He really didn't know how Uchiha Gin had collapsed in the cell. He had just visited him yesterday, and Gin was in excellent condition.

Upon seeing Uchiha Miao emerge, both of them turned their gazes towards him.

"Uchiha Gin's eye power has increased again."

Uchiha Miao said in disbelief,

"Furthermore, I noticed that the seal is somewhat loose."

Upon hearing this, the two exchanged glances, their eyes simultaneously revealing a solemn expression.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Putting aside the sealing issue, his eyes are just random pieces I took from those corpses; there's absolutely no way he could have awakened the Sharingan!"

Uchiha Yan said with certainty.

"What's the deal with the seal?"

While Uchiha Yan was preoccupied with the Sharingan, Uchiha Tajima was more concerned with the sealing issue.

He personally placed that seal, and his eyes have only just recovered; the aftereffects of overuse back then were too severe.

"I could only detect a force slightly touching the seal and slowly eroding it."

Uchiha Miao shook his head expressionlessly, indicating that he was also completely clueless.

"You must find out the secrets hidden in Uchiha Gin."

"Uchiha Tajima said, squinting his eyes."

"Isn't that unnecessary?"

Wiping away his sweat, Uchiha Yan said in confusion,

"He's already lost his eyes, so we're not going to waste our time on him. Our priority now should be finding out where that 'weapon' is."

Upon hearing Uchiha Yan mention the word "weapon," a hint of apprehension flashed in the eyes of the people present.

"How's the interrogation of the Sarutobi clan members imprisoned in the dungeon going?"

Uchiha Tajima asked,

"The results will be clear soon. With Ryūei taking action himself, even the Sage of Six Paths couldn't withstand his methods."

Uchiha Yan confidently assured Uchiha Tajima.

"Don't disappoint me again, Elder Yan."

A crimson glint flashed in Uchiha Tajima's eyes, and his icy gaze sent chills down Uchiha Yan's spine. The oppressive aura emanating from him made it hard for him to breathe.

"Elder Miao, you should also study the information left behind by that person as soon as possible. When the 'weapon' is born, it will still need shackles, otherwise..."

His gaze grew even colder, and in his slightly narrowed eyes, the familiar three tomoe were no longer present, but rather a peculiar four-cornered shuriken-shaped pupil.

"Weapons can turn against their masters."

The strange pattern vanished in an instant, and Uchiha Yan and Uchiha Miao dared not utter a sound.

"Father, Cousin Yin is awake!"

The tense atmosphere dissipated as Uchiha Izuna strode open the hospital room door.

"Elder Yan, Elder Miao, you two go ahead with your work. I'll go check on Yin."

With a warm smile, Uchiha Tajima addressed the two elders.

"Okay, okay."

The two elders, feeling as if they had been granted a pardon, quickly left.

"Izuna, let's go."

As he spoke, Uchiha Tajima pushed open the door and entered. He saw Uchiha Gin getting up from the hospital bed and was about to ask him a question.

Uchiha Gin, with a strange expression, spoke first, but his words were anything but ordinary.

"Uncle, that brat Uchiha Madara is a real pain in the neck, he needs treatment!"
