Chapter 305 The Nanhe Stone Tablet, the Secret of the Kaleidoscope
Chapter 305 The Nanhe Stone Tablet, the Secret of the Kaleidoscope
"Sasuke, is this the special stone tablet you mentioned that only the Sharingan can read?" At the Naka Shrine assembly hall, Junto looked at the weathered stone tablet illuminated by the firelight with anticipation in his eyes.
Are we finally about to find the secret of the kaleidoscope and have a chance to go back? We mustn't let him down!
“That’s right, this is the secret that Itachi Uchiha told me back then.” Sasuke clenched his fists, the three tomoe in his eyes reflecting in his pupils. “Moreover, the information on it is even more than what I saw when I had my two-tomoe Sharingan.”
"Please, Brother Runtu, I need your eye power to confirm some things!"
"Is that so..." Runtu instantly understood, and his eyes instantly transformed from a crimson to a kamikaze-like power, unleashing his eye power.
"What... what is this?"
The next instant, lines of sealed text appeared in his eyes as his pupil power increased, causing Runtu's pupils to contract and his expression to shift between light and dark!
"What did you see, Brother Runtu?" Sasuke asked nervously upon seeing this, his heart filled with trepidation and excitement.
Was Itachi Uchiha lying to him?
"The past of the Uchiha clan, and some secrets of the Mangekyou Sharingan. This includes the control of the Tailed Beasts and the curse of the Mangekyou Sharingan!"
"curse??"
"The Mangekyou Sharingan will eventually seal itself away and lose its light as the eye technique is used. This is why my vision blurred and my eyes hurt after using the eye technique before."
"The Mangekyou Sharingan can lose its light?" Sasuke trembled, his eyes wide with horror. He really didn't know this information.
"Yes, these are eyes that will inevitably lead to blindness once opened," Runtu affirmed, suppressing the restlessness and bitterness in his heart.
I thought I would find my way back up there, but before I could even see the way, I had already stepped one foot into endless darkness!
If he continues to abuse the Mangekyou Sharingan, he might not even be able to see normally, let alone go back through the Mangekyou Sharingan.
The thought that he would never be able to see Lin's lovely smiling face again made Runtu's face turn pale and his heart clench with pain!
No, he absolutely cannot allow this to happen.
"Is that all? Isn't there a way to fix it?" Seeing that Runtu was in a bad mood, Sasuke had an idea and quickly urged him.
If those were eyes that would inevitably lead to blindness, why was Itachi Uchiha so obsessed with them? Killing his comrades and annihilating his clan for the sake of so-called magnanimity!!
And what's the point of expecting him to seek revenge with the same eyes? In the end, everyone's blind anyway, so what's the point?
“Okay…” Runtu reacted and calmed his mind. As his pupil power deepened, several more lines of text appeared before his eyes.
The moment he saw those words again, Runtu's eyes flickered and his breathing became disordered!
"What's wrong?" Sasuke asked again, his eyes darting around as he stared intently at the stone tablet, trying to discern something, but to no avail.
"The Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, it says that after the Mangekyou comes the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, which grants permanent blindness. But unfortunately, it doesn't record how to awaken the Eternal Mangekyou." Junto shook his head with a wry smile, his heart filled with mixed feelings of hope and despair.
Sasuke, on the other hand, had an expression that said, "I knew it!"
Uchiha Itachi, as expected, wouldn't do anything meaningless.
That means that guy knows how to obtain the Eternal Kaleidoscope.
His only useful clue so far is that those eyes are related to whether he has awakened the Kaleidoscope.
Otherwise, Itachi Uchiha wouldn't have let him go twice, allowing him to seek revenge with the same eyes!
"Wait, the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan..." Just as Sasuke was pondering the connection, Junto suddenly realized something and his eyes widened in surprise and doubt.
"Madara, Uchiha Madara. Legend has it that Uchiha Madara, the Uchiha clan leader who co-founded Konoha with the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama, once lost his sight but regained it, further enhancing his eye power. Could that method be…?"
"What is it?!" Sasuke asked immediately, his breath quickening, as if a mystery was beginning to unravel.
Looking at Sasuke's eager anticipation, Junto hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and saying, "Legend has it that Madara Uchiha stole his younger brother's eyes back then."
"Take my brother's eyes!!" Instantly, Sasuke's pupils contracted as if struck by lightning, but then he suddenly realized...
"So that's how it is. No wonder he kept me here, letting me take revenge with eyes just like his! So that's how it is. Everything he did was just to continue the light and replicate the miracle of Uchiha Madara."
Sasuke mumbled incoherently, his laughter mingling with tears, and the last vestige of his fantasy about Itachi shattered instantly.
He had initially been somewhat suspicious of Itachi's intentions because of Orochimaru's instigation, but now he no longer needed to!
Because that person only saw him as a younger brother who was a tool for nurturing a spare eye.
"Is that so? You really are unlucky to have met such an older brother. But don't worry too much. Since he uses you as a backup eye, the reverse is also true!" Seeing Sasuke's disheartened state, Junto couldn't help but comfort him.
Although Sasuke's situation was terrible, at least he had a blood relative, his older brother, which gave him the opportunity to obtain the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. Bearing the hatred of the massacre of his clan, he didn't have any psychological burden when he attacked Itachi.
But he was all alone, and it was almost impossible for him to obtain eyes that would never go blind!
"Wait, it seems I also have a chance to obtain the eyes of eternal light." Suddenly, Runtu slapped his forehead and thought of someone.
Kakashi!!
To be precise, it's Kakashi's left eye kaleidoscope.
Although he doesn't have a blood relative's Mangekyou Sharingan, there is a Mangekyou Sharingan in this world that is more compatible with him than a blood relative's.
Even though it's just one left eye, having one is much better than being blind in both eyes...
I just don't know if Kakashi would be willing to exchange eyes with him and let him try this idea.
"You...you have brothers too?" Seeing Runtu's shifty eyes and muttering to himself, Sasuke couldn't help but take a step back and ask warily.
Will this guy end up like Itachi?
"No, no. I was just thinking of another possibility..." Runtu quickly changed the subject with an awkward laugh; he had no intention of taking Kakashi's left eye.
He didn't want Sasuke to guess his relationship with Kakashi's left eye and cause him trouble!
"Another possibility?"
"The stone tablet also mentions the Uchiha's path to redemption. However, I can't see the specific content right now; it should be something that only the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan can read."
"Perhaps, that so-called path to redemption will give us a new answer!"
Runtu's eyes flickered, indicating that he was somewhat tempted.
Who knows, activating the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan might allow me to see what happens next and have a chance to go back.
However, is the content of this stone tablet really credible?
At least he didn't kill anyone important before awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan, which is different from what was recorded above!
