Chapter 101 - Chapter 101: Begin Watching the History of the Ninja World

Has Susano'o emerged?

Bai Mo saw the unique crimson Susano'o appear and couldn't help but sigh; the stimulation this time was indeed a bit too much.

As is well known, the Mangekyō Sharingan doesn't grant all abilities immediately upon awakening.

Itachi's Tsukuyomi was mastered between awakening his Mangekyō and the Uchiha Clan massacre, but Amaterasu wasn't activated until he fought Yagura with Jūzō Biwa in Kirigakure.

Susano'o, on the other hand, was clearly mastered much later.

Uchiha Hikari was the same.

She had never used Susano'o before.

And in fact, for most ordinary Mangekyō Uchiha, Susano'o is extremely impractical.

If their Mangekyō dōjutsu were even slightly better, they wouldn't use Susano'o under normal circumstances.

The chakra consumption for an ordinary Mangekyō to activate Susano'o is too great.

It's either used when emotions are extremely volatile or as a last resort when on the verge of death.

Using dōjutsu like Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi might be fine for over a decade, but fighting with Susano'o a few times, and they might not last even a few years before going blind.

As a 'weapon' of the Uchiha Clan during the Warring States Period, Uchiha Hikari naturally couldn't be a disposable item that would be discarded after a few battles.

If that were the case, there would have been no need to implant her with the Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi dōjutsu.

So, before she was sealed, she had indeed never activated Susano'o.

Even if she wanted to protect a target, she would likely only use Amaterasu and Kagutsuchi to form a flame barrier.

Using Susano'o means she was truly desperate.

Now, let's see if Gaara has 'professional ethics'.

There are also differences between [Absolute Defense] and [Absolute Defense].

Some absolute defenses can withstand a full-power blow from a super taijutsu specialist like Tsunade or the Raikage.

Some absolute defenses can only spin around and will be pierced like a pincushion if they can't spin fast enough.

A pseudo-Susano'o, after all, cannot compare to a genuine one.

"Senior, you are finally unsealed. Come and change this world with us!"

Gaara suppressed his embarrassment and shouted these somewhat shameful lines to Uchiha Hikari.

—That's right, even if you don't want to conquer the Uchiha, if you want to communicate with them, the more impactful your words are, the better.

"Hmm?"

Sure enough, Uchiha Hikari, who had just emerged from underground in her Susano'o, was stunned by these words.

She tilted her head in confusion, like a groundhog.

Had she been sealed for too long and was now hallucinating?

Wasn't she supposed to come out to save a 'weapon' who shared her plight?

Bai Mo gave Gaara a thumbs up.

Susano'o's attack speed simply couldn't compare to the speed of a kneeling slide.

Gaara didn't improvise like his sister Temari, which deserved praise.

"You tricked me?"

Uchiha Hikari looked back at her supposed 'companions' only to find Bai Mo and Temari standing there normally, showing no signs of a life-and-death struggle. Her face immediately darkened.

After anger and rage came disappointment.

"Sure enough, no one can be like me..."

"Don't misunderstand, that was just filming a movie... Hmm, it's like a play, can you understand that?

Also, who said no one is like you?

There are at least nine others like you right now.

He is one of them."

Bai Mo walked up to Uchiha Hikari and pointed at Gaara.

"I won't believe you anymore, I..."

"The Uchiha Clan has been massacred."

Bai Mo met Uchiha Hikari's eyes. "Someone said, to understand an Uchiha, don't listen to what she says, look into her eyes."

Hearing this, Uchiha Hikari turned her head away in a panic.

Bai Mo raised his hand.

"Don't forcibly kiss her!"

"..."

Temari's anxious cry came from behind.

The atmosphere was instantly broken.

"Ah?"

Uchiha Hikari was stunned for a moment, then panicked and took a few steps back, creating distance from Bai Mo, her face full of wary vigilance.

"Lady Temari, if you cause any more trouble, I'll go over and forcibly kiss you right now."

Bai Mo turned his head, looking at Temari with an exasperated eye roll.

They were already on Plan B, why was she still thinking about Plan A's content?

"...Mm."

Temari subconsciously covered her mouth.

"Alright, if you want to know whether what I said is true or false, use Tsukuyomi on me. I will tell you with my heart."

Bai Mo's gaze returned to Uchiha Hikari, meeting her eyes, and he walked towards her again.

Uchiha Hikari saw Bai Mo approach and subconsciously wanted to retreat, but then she heard Bai Mo's words and was instantly surprised.

Is there really someone in this world who actively asks to be hit with Mangekyō Sharingan dōjutsu?

Hearing Bai Mo say this, Uchiha Hikari hesitated.

Could it be that the other party really wasn't lying to her?

Thinking of this, Uchiha Hikari looked up and met Bai Mo's gaze.

Tsukuyomi activated.

In an instant, they arrived in a pure white space.

Hikari was surprised to find that in the Tsukuyomi space, where she should have controlled everything, Bai Mo was not under her control.

"Give me permission to the Tsukuyomi space. I'll show you what happened in the world after you were sealed."

Bai Mo extended his hand to Hikari.

"..."

Hikari was a bit confused.

Why did it feel like this person in front of her understood the Mangekyō Sharingan's abilities better than she did?

How did he even know she could do that?

—Bai Mo, of course, knew.

Again, Uchiha Hikari's Mangekyō ability was still too sinister.

Tsukuyomi could not only transfer partial permissions but also, with technology, be transformed into a VR game, allowing others to experience a restricted Tsukuyomi permission in the VR game, playing as other shinobi as they wished.

"If you lie to me again, I will never trust you again."

Uchiha Hikari hesitated for a moment, then took Bai Mo's hand.

But the way she said it, why did it sound like something a little girl would say when pouting?

Was it an illusion?

"Don't worry, now I'll tell you about the history of the Shinobi World. First, the end of the Warring States Period and the establishment of the Shinobi Villages."

Bai Mo controlled the scenery in the Tsukuyomi space, and two figures appeared.

"Senju? Uchiha?"

Uchiha Hikari frowned, looking at the clan crests on their bodies.

Uchiha Hikari was different from others; she had no sense of belonging to the Uchiha Clan, and even less fondness for the rival, even sealing, Senju Clan.

Fugaku thought about the glory of the Uchiha Clan.

Shisui thought about the shared glory of the Uchiha Clan and the Village.

Itachi hated the Uchiha and thought about the glory of the Village.

Only Uchiha Hikari loved nothing, belonging to the pure hatred war god type.

Watching the scenes of Madara and Hashirama's entangled love and hate that Bai Mo showed her, her feeling was "two enemies united."

"The establishment of the Shinobi Villages ended the Warring States Period. At least for a short time, the Shinobi World was indeed peaceful.

But this wasn't because people understood each other; it was because those two individuals existed, and others wouldn't dare to start a war seeking death."

Bai Mo waved his hand, and the scene in the Tsukuyomi space changed again.

"They broke up? No surprise."

Watching Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama confronting each other below, Uchiha Hikari chuckled softly.

"That's right, unable to withstand the condemnation of worldly gazes, this ill-fated couple was forced to separate, forever apart, living and dying in different worlds, and the peace of the Shinobi World was shattered as well."

"Oh... Huh?"

As a traditional shinobi from the Warring States Period and a young girl, Bai Mo's words had too great an impact on Uchiha Hikari.
