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

"Who's there!?"

Jingzai, who was still a little dazed, suddenly jolted awake upon hearing the deep, sexy baritone voice in his ear, quickly rolled back, and created distance.

"This is."

He had barely steadied himself when he noticed the extra thing in his arms, and his eyes widened in surprise.

Tailed Beast Rider Driver and Tailed Beast Cards?

Where did the teacher go?

"Little prisoner, holding that thing, do you also want to be a knight?"

Just as Uchiha Kagami was completely baffled, the unfamiliar voice rang out again. He quickly shielded the Driver and Tailed Beast Cards behind his back, his eyes flashing with a chilling red light.

"Decade? What are you doing here?"

The source of the voice was quickly located. Uchiha Kagami, who had met Decade before, immediately recognized the other party's identity.

Before the doubt in his eyes could dissipate, his gaze shifted downwards and fell upon Tobirama Senju lying at Decade's feet. His pupils constricted sharply.

"teacher!"

From his Sharingan's perspective, the teacher on the ground was already lifeless, making the third person present a prime suspect.

"What did you do to the teacher?"

"What reason do I have to take action? I was just passing by for a moment~"

Uchiha Gin shrugged, crouched down, reached out, and poked the stiffened corpse of the Tobirama Senju clone, his voice tinged with a strange sigh.

"Tsk tsk tsk~ What a pity. I thought I would witness the inheritance of the chivalrous spirit, but now it seems that being a knight is still a high-risk profession."

"if I could."

Uchiha Kagami's eyes widened; the cruel reality was hard for him to accept, and he kept muttering to himself.

As they spoke, an extremely cold aura instantly rose up, successfully attracting Uchiha Gin's attention.

isn't it?

Is Jingzai about to open?

Looking at the three tomoe rapidly spinning in Uchiha Kagami's unfocused eyes, Uchiha Gin glanced with slight surprise at the clone's corpse at his feet.

I never expected Jingzai to be so loyal and righteous; the death of a white-haired guy would make him open his kaleidoscope.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

Just as Uchiha Gin was sighing, a pitiful scream came from Uchiha Kagami, who was covering his face.

The next second, the ocular power concentrated in Uchiha Kagami's eyes finally broke through its shackles, and the three rotating tomoe successfully sublimated, gradually sticking together and finally transforming into an unfamiliar yet magnificent pattern.

"How can this be repaired!"

Seeing this, Gintoki Uchiha was furious. Why were everyone else's Mangekyou Sharingan patterns so beautiful, while his was so perfunctory? He was going to appeal to the Pure Land and seek justice from the Six Paths Ancestor.

"This force."

After years of hard work and accumulation, Jingzai finally achieved his goal of becoming Kaleidoscope, but he was not happy at all.

As the ancestral text states, the birth of every kaleidoscope signifies a cruel sacrifice.

His teacher's death inspired his kaleidoscope of talents, but it couldn't change the fact that his teacher had died in battle.

"If he had realized this sooner, the teacher might not have died."

Overwhelmed with self-reproach, Uchiha Kagami couldn't help but shed two streams of bloody tears, which, combined with the bewitching patterns in his eyes, created a strangely poignant beauty.

This made Uchiha Gin even more jealous.

From now on, if anyone dares to show off their kaleidoscope in front of him, he'll just spray them with pepper spray.

"Clap clap clap~"

"Alright, save your tears for the memorial service. Where's Madara Uchiha?"

Seeing the gloomy Jingzi, Uchiha Gin clapped his hands, reminding him to cherish those who are still alive.

Uchiha Kagami, jolted from his grief, suddenly shuddered. Madara Uchiha's fate was still unknown; how could he remain immersed in sorrow and refrain from moving forward?

"Hokage! Uncle is over there!"

Pointing in a distant direction, Uchiha Gin immediately locked onto his enhanced senses, but the result of his investigation made him frown slightly.

No,

There was no sign of my older cousin from that direction.

"Could something really have happened?"

Uchiha Gin's heart tightened, and he leaped into the air, speeding off in the direction Mirror had pointed.

As Uchiha Kagami watched Decade's departing figure, he frowned and recalled the other's style of doing things.

The villages know very little about the mysterious Decade, but judging from his behavior, it can be inferred that he is only interested in battles between Riders and doesn't care about anything else.

Unable to fathom what malicious intent the other party might have, Jingzai quickly and carefully gathered up Senju Tobirama's corpse from the ground, and after finishing, chased after Decade's figure.

As Gin Uchiha got closer to Madara Uchiha's battlefield, his heart grew heavier. Familiar auras, one after another, gradually surfaced on his sensory radar.

One tail, two tail, three tail.

Besides the Five-Tails and the Six-Tails, this small area also contained the chakra remnants of the other seven tailed beasts.

If what Senju Hisama said is true, then it is very likely that the younger cousin faced the siege of seven Another Riders all by himself.

In addition, there were some unfamiliar chakras. Since he didn't recognize them, Uchiha Gin marked them to investigate them properly when he got back.

"Huh? Sister Wang, why are you shaking?"

As Uchiha Gin was recording unfamiliar chakra, the driver at his waist suddenly emitted a restless sound. He immediately looked down in confusion.

"Ou Runji ate too much."

Within her belt, the expressionless Wanrō forced herself to steady her trembling body and coldly replied, though a faint, complex emotion flickered in her pure white eyes.

The unfamiliar chakra recorded by Uchiha Gin was all too familiar to Kaguya; its owner was none other than Otsutsuki Isshiki, whom she had betrayed years ago.

Unexpectedly, after only a thousand years, Yi Shi, who was barely clinging to life, has recovered most of his strength.

"Hey bro, I haven't retired yet, don't you dare rush into it!"

After finishing recording, the anxious Uchiha Gin immediately accelerated, his figure swaying, leaving only a blur in the spot.

Upon successful landing, the battlefield was indeed a scene of utter devastation. The damage caused by various types of attacks was countless, and the methods and attributes were largely consistent with those of the tailed beasts, confirming Uchiha Gin's earlier conjecture.

Where did they go?

However, despite his enhanced senses searching, he found nothing. He didn't find a living person, or even a corpse.

"Fly!"

After a fruitless search, the defiant Uchiha Gin raised his hand and began searching for the Flying Thunder God seal he had left on Uchiha Madara. However, after several minutes and searching an area within a hundred miles, he still couldn't find his cousin's mark.

Something's not right.

With a solemn expression, Uchiha Gin lowered his hand, his brows furrowed into a deep frown. Unless someone used a Yin-Yang Release-level technique to erase his Flying Thunder God mark, it would never disappear.

Could it be that my younger cousin has encountered a Six Paths level enemy?

However, even after racking his brains, Gin Uchiha couldn't find any information about an enemy in the original work.

"The best course of action now is to determine whether my eldest cousin is alive or dead."

Unable to find his younger cousin, Uchiha Gin decided to settle for second best and first confirm whether Uchiha Madara was alive or dead.

Having said that, he reached into his storage space, rummaged around for a bit, and took out a long-forgotten scroll.

Blood Samples from Konoha Residents

"Splash!"

After pulling it open, Uchiha Gin quickly spotted his cousin's name among the densely packed names.

"untie!"

"Bang!"

Seeing the somewhat delayed summoning jutsu, Uchiha Gin frowned almost imperceptibly. He had noticed the anomaly in the spatial energy the moment he entered the battlefield; its flow was so slow it seemed to be thawing.

"Just as that white-haired guy said, the enemy has the ability to seal space."

However, Uchiha Gin had no time to think about these things. He placed a vial of scarlet liquid on the ground, skillfully formed a few hand seals, and then slammed his hands on the ground.

"Summoning Technique: Impure World Reincarnation".

Tadpole-like incantations spread rapidly, surrounding the vial of blood and eventually forming a complex array.

Uchiha Gin stared nervously, anxiously awaiting the result.

"Splash splash splash."

Fortunately, the gray dust of the Pure Land from my memory did not appear. The Impure World Reincarnation technique was forced to stop because it could not find the soul of the blood owner, and the formation dimmed and disappeared.

"Thank goodness, at least I'm alive."

Finally relieved, Uchiha Gin stepped forward and took the blood sample back.

"despair!"

As soon as he turned around, Uchiha Kagami's figure appeared behind him. Finding himself also alone, his face instantly filled with anxiety.

"Where is my uncle?"

"As you can see, not a single hair has been left here."

Having confirmed that his younger cousin was safe, Uchiha Gin breathed a sigh of relief and his previous tension subsided. He immediately shrugged and replied,

"But this is also good news. At least Madara Uchiha isn't lying on the floor like that white-haired guy."

"Try saying that again!?"

Upon hearing Uchiha Gin mock Tobirama Senju, who had already "died in battle," even the good-tempered Kagami could no longer contain his anger. The bewitching pattern in his eyes flickered slightly, and his pure ocular power emanated from them.

"Oh?"

Seeing this, Uchiha Gin raised an eyebrow. He was quite interested in Kagami's Mangekyou Sharingan abilities. There were only a few named Mangekyou Sharingan users in the original work, and he was eager to see something different.

"Are you suggesting I award him the title of knight with the shortest service time?"

As he spoke, he beckoned to Jingzai, his provocation practically written all over his face.

"You are not allowed to insult your teacher!"

Having suffered the double blow of his mentor's death in battle and the unknown fate of his uncle, Uchiha Kagami's long-suppressed emotions finally erupted. The pattern in his eyes suddenly shifted, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze.

Out of respect, the eyes of the Uchiha Silver Mask also subtly turned crimson, the pupils adorned with three tomoe watching Mirror's every move.

Uchiha Kagami's eyes widened, and two streaks of blood flowed from his fragile eyeballs under the impact of his pupil power.

"Masuketsu."

As he coldly uttered an unfamiliar name, a smooth mirror suddenly materialized in front of Uchiha Kagami, perfectly reflecting Uchiha Gin's image.

"This is?"

Looking at his reflection in the mirror, Uchiha Gin felt a strange sense of unease.

The next second, something unexpected happened: the reflection in the mirror tilted its head slightly. Uchiha Gin was startled by this.

"Is it haunted?"

As they were talking, the reflection in the mirror suddenly took a step and gracefully stepped out of the mirror, standing next to Uchiha Kagami.

"."

The scene fell silent instantly. A few seconds later, Uchiha Gin scratched his head with a strange expression, his eyes filled with disappointment as he looked at Uchiha Kagami.

You idiot, I asked you to awaken a pupil technique, and you gave me a Water Mirror Technique instead?

What a waste of resources! I should have interrupted you earlier, kid, to save you from embarrassing yourself later.

"Are you too scared to speak?"

Looking at the silent Decade, Uchiha Kagami shook his head arrogantly.

"I have something to say, but I don't know if I should."

Hearing this, Uchiha Gin couldn't help but roll his eyes. Why were all these people in his family the same? After awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan, they became arrogant and turned their backs on everyone.

"superior!"

As if sensing the disdain in Uchiha Gin's words, Uchiha Kagami waved his hand, and the Decade-type character born from the mirror instantly vanished from the spot.

"Whoosh~"

The next second, a sharp fist appeared in front of Uchiha Gin.

"Oh? It seems the level of accuracy is quite high~"

Sensing the powerful force of the punch, Uchiha Gin abandoned his underestimation and raised his hand to block the attack.

"Bang!"

After firmly blocking the attack, Uchiha Gin kicked the imposter Kamen Rider Decade in the chest, sending him flying several meters away.

"what?"

The strange sensation in his chest caused his expression to change slightly, a hint of surprise appearing in his eyes.

"You don't actually think my eye technique is just about copying enemies, do you?"

Uchiha Gin turned his head, his eyes now questioning as he looked at Mirror.

"My True Scripture can not only replicate the enemy's abilities one-to-one, but also return double the damage caused by the enemy."

To retract my earlier statement, Jingzai's pupil technique is actually quite good.

"A very good ability."

Patting off non-existent dust from his chest, Uchiha Gin gave Mirror a very high evaluation: the Uchiha clan has finally produced a rather sinister eye technique, which can be considered a great honor for their ancestors.

Like every Uchiha, even the honest and kind-hearted Kagami couldn't escape the dark history of getting lost in the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan.

"Hmph, still being stubborn, lamenting your unfortunate fate of not having the Sharingan!"

At this moment, he acted like a normal Uchiha, his face full of wicked arrogance, making Uchiha Gin's fists itch. He pushed off with his foot, transforming into a bolt of lightning, and rushed towards the replica of Kamen Rider Decade in the mirror.

"Don't waste your energy. Unless you can withstand double the reflected damage, it's definitely not your match."

"Click~"

With a crisp snapping sound, Mirror, who was talking non-stop, was instantly silenced. His eyes widened in disbelief, and he almost slapped himself to see if he had fallen under an illusion.

"That's it? That's it?"

Uchiha Gin, toying with the cloned head, spoke with nothing but sarcasm.

The moment he clashed with the Kamen Rider Decade in the mirror, he realized that the other was just a blank copy, no match for him with his full gear. He was easily defeated if he took the fight even slightly seriously.

Here you go~

He raised his hand and tossed the head he was holding over. Fortunately, this clone didn't have flesh and blood, so the scene wasn't too gruesome.

"How could it be an illusion? It must be an illusion!"

As the head rolled toward him, Uchiha Kagami fell into deep self-doubt. The crimson in his eyes gradually faded, and the remains of the clone disappeared.

After checking the homework, Uchiha Gin sensed the arrival of a large number of auras in the distance, so he did not linger and turned to step into the Shadow Realm.

A moment later, the dense crowd gradually disembarked. Uchiha Izuna, at the head of the group, looked at the only living person in the entire scene, his already furrowed brows deepening into a deep knot.

"Jing! Where did Big Brother go?"

"Lord Izuna, I just woke up too."

Having suffered a major blow, Jingzai was somewhat disoriented. In a daze, he saw a familiar long-haired, white-haired man in the crowd, and a deep sadness instantly welled up in his heart.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Hisa, I will take care of you for the rest of my life in place of our teacher." (End of Chapter)
