I have always hidden a monster within my heart.
That monster... is full of killing intent and deep desires.
In the past, I always suppressed it, but now... I have released the monster.
I am the Evil Uchiha!
...
Backstabbing his Jonin instructor and simultaneously killing the boss, Anrokuzan, swept away the emotions Kaito had suppressed in his heart for so long!
Casting aside all restraints, his thoughts became clear, and he let himself go. Kaito felt nothing but an unspeakable pleasure in his heart.
"This feeling..."
A power as hot as fire danced within his eyeballs.
The crimson pupils shone; the Eye that Reflects the Heart awakened, and the path to power opened right here.
Like a young bird spreading its wings to fly for the first time, or like primitive man learning to make fire by drilling wood...
Kaito had found the source of his burning power for the first time.
Everything before his eyes was now dyed in a different color, and the scenes he saw were different from the past.
In his vision, the two figures falling into the abyss quickly merged with the massive Dragon Vein power below, becoming indistinguishable from one another. That powerful ley line energy dissolved them in an instant. No one could survive being immersed in such high-density Chakra.
"Sharingan..."
Kaito gently touched his eye sockets.
The ceiling of his talent had been opened.
Opening the Sharingan could forcibly raise a person's talent.
For example, if a person's talent was originally limited to Genin, the awakening of the bloodline power could raise their upper limit to Chunin. As long as they continued to hone themselves, they could reach the limit of the talent bestowed by the Sharingan.
The pupil power in his eyeballs was continuously feeding back, pouring into his body, flowing through his limbs and bones, and reconstructing his physique in all aspects.
This was the reason Senju Tobirama said that the Uchiha clan's strength increases explosively after awakening their eyes.
At this moment, Kaito, experiencing this change, had only one thought in his mind: "I... will become stronger."
As Kaito quietly gazed into the abyss, the sound of running footsteps came from behind him.
"Kaito..."
It was a girl's voice.
Kaito turned to look at her.
Her long hair was tied behind her head. Her bangs were parted on both sides, braided into two plaits that coiled toward the back.
A cute girl with large eyes and long eyelashes was running towards him quickly.
Uchiha Yo.
A Genin teammate from the same squad, and also a member of the Uchiha clan.
"Tekka and I evacuated the people of Roran. How are things with you and Sensei?" She stopped in front of Kaito, then froze.
"It's done... Sensei and that bad guy perished together."
Kaito pointed downwards.
The massive Dragon Vein power was surging. At some point, the stable Chakra had turned into a strange purplish-red light.
At a glance, it looked like volcanic magma about to erupt.
When he touched the power of the Dragon Vein earlier, Kaito had tampered with it slightly. Just like a brat visiting a relative's house for the New Year and casually knocking over an expensive vase.
Wanton destruction, activating the Dragon Vein's self-destruct formula.
Facts have proved that destruction is always easier than construction.
Yes, the Dragon Vein has probably entered the second phase now. In other words...
——This place is about to explode.
Since I have decided to take the evil route, I might as well be thoroughly evil. I came to Roran to observe the future, and others could do the same. It wouldn't be good if someone like Mukade came back from the future again.
When a villain does something, they must pull up the weeds by the roots to avoid future trouble. Adding fuel to the fire and blowing Roran sky-high is the best choice.
"Kaito, you awakened your eyes?"
Uchiha Yo was extremely surprised. She widened those already large eyes, making her look even cuter. The genes of the Uchiha clan easily produced handsome men and beautiful women. In terms of looks, Uchiha Yo was very competitive among her peers.
Looking at Kaito's awakened Sharingan, Uchiha Yo didn't know what to say. She was probably both envious and happy.
"Wait, you said Sensei... he and the enemy..."
Suddenly hearing the news that the Jonin instructor had died, Uchiha Yo was at a loss for a moment.
Kaito: "Uchiha Yo. Yo means jade, a beautiful jade. It describes something beautiful and precious..."
Hearing him suddenly mention her name, Uchiha Yo was puzzled: "You, why are you suddenly~"
"I mean... this place is about to explode. The power of the Dragon Vein will blow everything sky-high. In other words, you are going to die. So, do you have any last words or wishes you want to say?"
Kaito stared at the cute clanswoman in front of him. The latter was completely stunned.
Her gaze shifted slightly to the side, her big, watery eyes full of skepticism about life.
I... am going to die?
Isn't this development... too fast?!
"Ninja... is such a profession..."
Uchiha Yo's body trembled slightly. Perhaps out of fear, perhaps out of unwillingness.
But she quickly accepted the fact that she would die.
Ninja, this is the reality.
"I... I want a family..."
Uchiha Yo thought for a moment and spoke her last words, which was also the biggest regret in her life.
Starting as an orphan is the norm in the World of Naruto, and Uchiha Yo was no exception.
She longed for family, wanted to know what it felt like to have family.
"Un, I know."
Kaito nodded and looked at the increasingly violent Dragon Vein.
Rumble—!
The earth began to tremble. The artificial structures here collapsed rapidly, and everything shook violently.
Roran was about to be no more.
The reason Kaito was so calm inside and completely fearless was that, in addition to his excellent individual psychological quality, he had the experience accumulated from countless observations of parallel space-times.
Countless observations were equivalent to experiencing countless life simulations.
Judging from the experience brought by those timelines, there was a 99.9% chance he would not be killed by the Roran explosion.
"Kaito, are you afraid?"
The girl, whose body was trembling slightly, looked at him.
"Rest assured, you are not alone."
"Is that so..."
Kaito gazed quietly at Uchiha Yo.
You thought I would be blown up too?
So, previously, when I told you to stay away, was it because I was worried you would run back here?
"Hoo... Hoo..."
Uchiha Yo tried hard to stare at Kaito, trying to suppress her increasingly nervous breathing.
The shaking of the surrounding scenery and the roaring sound became more and more violent. Finally, the whole world was dyed a strange dark red!
Immediately after...
The Dragon Vein erupted, and the great explosion occurred.
BOOM—!!!
Above this desert sea of sand, a violent shockwave swept across the entire area.
Even kilometers away, the evacuated civilians and the other Genin teammate, Uchiha Tekka, could see the eruption there.
Bathed in the power of Roran, Kaito knew from the experience gained from observing similar situations that he would not be swallowed by the Dragon Vein's power. As a transmigrator, he was an anomaly in space-time itself, so he was more or less special.
When everything dispersed... the dark red light gradually faded, and all things returned to normal.
"Roran is indeed gone."
Kaito looked at the devastation and fell into thought.
"But Mukade did indeed come from the future. In other words, in the future, is there still some way... for him to come here?"
So, will the world he is in now encounter a temporal paradox? Or will a different timeline be generated from this?
"Kaito..." At this moment, Uchiha Yo's voice came from beside him.
"Un?"
Kaito looked over, somewhat surprised.
An unharmed Uchiha Yo was right in front of him.
A 0.01% survival chance, and you actually survived. That is indeed... interesting.
That impossible possibility... is this S-rank luck, or a kind of omen?
"An omen that I... can change the destined ending shown by those countless futures of destruction?"
