"Uzumaki Shin, you really want to know where I got these Mangekyō Sharingan, don't you? Defeat me, and I'll tell you,"

Uzumaki Kai sneered, his eyes filled with defiance.

"I really can't stand it when people act cocky in front of me. Know your place—trash."

Shin met Kai's arrogant gaze with a look of pure disdain, his voice utterly indifferent.

This guy really thought that just because he had a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, he could act like he was hot shit? How laughable.

"The so-called 'Reaper of the Shinobi World'... Let me see if that title is truly deserved!"

Kai tightened his grip on his kunai, his figure flickering away as he activated Body Flicker Technique, appearing directly behind Shin. With a ruthless thrust, he aimed for the back of his skull.

"You think you're worthy of fighting me? This world is getting crazier—There's no shortage of fools who overestimate themselves."

Without even looking, Shin turned slightly, casually catching Kai by the throat as if he were grabbing a stray kitten.

"If he's trash, then what the hell am I...?"

Nawaki's face was pale as he squatted on the ground, drawing circles in the dirt. Shin's words had hurt him.

He had been fighting Kai for a while and almost died. Although it was partly because he didn't know about the Mangekyō Sharingan's abilities, the fact remained that he was almost killed.

And now Shin was calling Kai trash? Did that mean he was even worse than trash?

Kai struggled to breathe as Shin held him up by the neck. He tried to attack Shin with his kunai, but his arm wouldn't move.

"Nawaki, I'm about to crush his neck—any objections?"

Shin asked lazily.

"If possible, I'd still like to get my revenge myself," Nawaki said, snapping out of his daze.

He wanted to kill Kai himself, but if Shin insisted, he couldn't stop him.

"Alright, let's make a deal. Tell me where you got your Mangekyō Sharingan, and I might spare you."

Shin released Kai, who fell to the ground and glared at him with hatred.

"Still looking at me like that? Well, I suppose it makes sense—we've hated each other since we were kids."

Shin wasn't the least bit bothered by Kai's hostility. A weakling's hatred meant nothing to him.

"Hurry up and talk. If you don't, I might just have to kill you."

With a smooth motion, Shin drew his Kusanagi Blade, its sharp edge glinting ominously.

"Susano'o!"

Kai roared, refusing to back down. Especially not against Shin, his nemesis.

As the skeletal frame of Susanoo began forming around him, Shin's eyes widened slightly in surprise. But a moment later, his lips curled into a smirk.

"Wow, that Susano'o is so Pathetic," Shin said, looking at the Green Susano'o with amusement.

"I almost feel sorry for you. Your Susano'o reflects your state of mind—just how jealous do you have to be for it to turn that color?"

Kai was in love with Akiko Uzumaki, who was now with Minato Namikaze. No wonder Kai's Susano'o manifested in such a peculiar hue.

His Susano'o wasn't in its complete form—it was half-bodied and clad in armor, lacking a proper weapon. After all, Kai's Mangekyo Sharingan was transplanted, not the Eternal Mangekyo.

Susano'o's armored fist swung at Shin.

"Shin, are you going to be okay?" Nawaki asked worriedly.

He knew Shin was strong, but he didn't know exactly how strong.

"Of course I'll be fine. I'm the Reaper of the Shinobi World, remember? This is child's play. Don't underestimate me, Nawaki."

"Gale Slash!"

Shin slashed at the fifty-meter tall Susano'o with a wind blade, cutting it in half. Kai fell to his knees, blood and tears streaming down his face. He was in excruciating pain.

His eyes turned grey, losing all their light.

"You're blind?"

Shin looked at Kai in surprise. He had overused his Mangekyō Sharingan and gone blind.

"WHY?! WHY CAN'T I SEE?!" Kai roared like a wild animal.

"How pathetic. Didn't you know overuse of the Mangekyō Sharingan leads to blindness? This is what happens when you use it recklessly."

Kai didn't hear Shin's words. He was still roaring. Actually, he hadn't even used his Mangekyō Sharingan that much. It was already weak because it was transplanted.

Without another word, Shin stepped forward, placing a hand on Kai's head. His Sharingan spun, extracting every last memory from Kai's mind.

A moment later, Shin smirked.

"Turns out, you got your Mangekyō from Danzo, And the original owner was... Uchiha Kagami?"

He didn't know how Danzō got his hands on them, but Danzō had transplanted them into Kai, planning to use him as a weapon.

Danzō wasn't worried about Kai betraying him. He had placed a curse on Kai. If Kai betrayed him, he would die.

Kai collapsed after Shin forcibly extracted his memories. He wasn't dead, but his mind was severely damaged, beyond repair.

"Honestly, keeping you alive would just be cruel. I'll end your suffering."

Shin incinerated Kai with Amaterasu.

Black flames engulfed Kai's body. In seconds, he was reduced to nothing but ash.

"I couldn't even get my revenge myself..." Nawaki sighed.

"I don't think you could ever get your revenge on your own," Shin said, looking at Nawaki.

He wasn't underestimating Nawaki, but Kai was a genius. Nawaki might never surpass him.

....

"Huh? The Iwa Shinobi are retreating. Is that because of me?"

Shin looked at the retreating Iwa Shinobi.

Onoki, locked in combat with Orochimaru, had glimpsed Shin effortlessly destroying Susano'o. Horrified, the Tsuchikage ordered a full retreat without hesitation.

"Shin, long time no see." Orochimaru approached. He had also noticed Shin, even before Ōnoki.

"Orochimaru, Kai was your student, wasn't he? Sorry, I accidentally killed him." Shin said.

Nawaki looked at Orochimaru with a complicated expression. He had also been Orochimaru's student.

"Kai? I don't mind."

Orochimaru didn't care about his student's death. If he had cared about his students during the Second Shinobi World War, he didn't care now.

To him, Immortality, Knowledge, and Power were the only things that mattered.

And he didn't have any real feelings for his students anyway.
