Chapter 52: Uchiha Deva Akira
🕑 Added 2024-08-17 08:12:08 +0000 UTCIt seemed that Kotoamatsukami could not affect individuals with a higher ninja rank.
This significantly reduced the usefulness of this trump card.
For someone like Uchiha Akira, who had just reached the Jonin level, using Kotoamatsukami to reverse the tragedy of the Uchiha massacre seemed unlikely.
Over in the Hidden Cloud Village, the Raikage was more interested in watching the Uchiha clan and Konoha tear each other apart, hoping it would give the Cloud Village the chance to rise to the top of the Five Great Ninja Villages.
They wouldn’t risk a full-scale war with Konoha just to support the Uchiha clan.
So, what's next?
Apart from the Hidden Cloud Village, the Hidden Stone Village is another powerful option.
Onoki's Dust Release is unrivaled in the ninja world.
Uchiha Akira simulated another scenario where he visited the Hidden Stone Village and met with Onoki.
He straightforwardly explained the situation between the Uchiha clan and Konoha, especially highlighting the role of the Akatsuki organization.
Onoki was familiar with the Akatsuki, having even hired them on several occasions.
It’s undeniable that Onoki valued the power of the Uchiha clan.
If the entire Uchiha clan could migrate to the Hidden Stone Village, it would undoubtedly boost the village’s strength significantly.
However, after careful consideration, Onoki also refused.
Onoki’s reasoning was different from the Raikage’s.
He felt that he was getting old, and the younger generation in the Hidden Stone Village wasn’t particularly strong.
But Uchiha Akira was a super-genius who had awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan at the age of six.
No one knew what heights he might reach in the future—he could even become as powerful as Uchiha Madara!
If that happened, wouldn’t the Hidden Stone Village eventually fall under the control of the Uchiha clan in a decade or so?
So, Onoki declined.
With no other choice, Uchiha Akira went into hiding for two years, but his luck ran out when Orochimaru found him, leading to his death at Orochimaru's hands.
In this simulation, Uchiha Akira extracted more chakra.
After two years, his chakra reserves had increased significantly.
Simulating life over several cycles and spanning seven years, Uchiha Akira’s chakra had grown substantially, reflecting the time he spent training.
However, both the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Stone Village had refused to help.
So what’s next? The Hidden Sand Village or the Hidden Mist Village?
Forget it.
The Kazekage's strength is mediocre at best—Kazekage is often considered the weakest among the Kage-level ninja.
The Third Kazekage was killed and turned into a puppet by Sasori, and the Fourth Kazekage died at Orochimaru’s hands.
The Hidden Sand Village doesn’t have the strength to confront Konoha head-on.
And as for the Hidden Mist Village, it’s even worse.
At this time, the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, is under the control of Obito’s Sharingan.
Due to Rin’s death at the hands of the Hidden Mist Village, Obito turned the village into a hellhole, earning it the title of the Bloody Mist.
Would Obito seek help from the Hidden Mist Village to destroy the Uchiha? Impossible.
So, aside from the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Sand Village, is there any other force in the ninja world that could help the Uchiha clan stand against Konoha?
After much thought, Uchiha Akira shook his head.
There isn’t.
Before witnessing the death of Shisui-sensei, Uchiha Akira hadn’t considered changing the tragic outcome of the Uchiha massacre.
Because his strength was too weak, there wasn’t much he could do to change things.
So, his plan was to lie low, survive the massacre, and then seek to grow stronger afterward.
But after witnessing Shisui’s death—and more importantly, after being entrusted with his Mangekyō Sharingan—Uchiha Akira felt a fire burning within him.
He wanted to change things, and more importantly, he wanted to take down Danzo and the Third Hokage and the rest of the Konoha leadership.
“Well, if relying on external forces isn’t an option, then I’ll have to rely on myself.”
After several simulations showed that neither the Hidden Cloud Village nor the Hidden Sand Village would help, Uchiha Akira finally decided to place his hope in his own strength.
He could still simulate life a dozen more times!
If he continued to lie low and grow stronger, those simulations might give him the equivalent of a hundred years’ worth of training.
Even if his talent was mediocre, he could still build up his strength over time!
It would be like the story of Deva in Fengyun, who, despite having poor talent in martial arts, gained immortality through Phoenix Blood and, after two thousand years of training, became the ultimate villain.
Following his decision to rely on himself, Uchiha Akira carefully planned out his future path.
The next day, he began another life simulation.
【You distanced yourself from Konoha and hid in the faraway Land of Craftsmen, secretly training.】
【A month later, the Uchiha clan was massacred, shocking the ninja world, while you continued to train diligently.】
【Six years later, you encountered Naruto Uzumaki and his team but didn’t reveal yourself, continuing your training.】
【Nine years later, the Fourth Great Ninja War broke out, and you focused on your training.】
【The Infinite Tsukuyomi was activated, and you were caught in the genjutsu, continuing your training within the illusion.】
