Konoha, inside the Uchiha clan grounds.
" Are you sure that Sean was the one who said this!? " Azuna asked seriously, fixing his narrow eyes on Ninko.
Ninko nodded. " Yes every word of it. " As soon as he finished speaking, under the gaze of Azuna who was suspicious and wanted more information, Ninko firmly canceled the summoning.
Azuna Uchiha, Sean's father, stared at the white smoke resulting from the release of the Summoning Technique with bitterness and sighed.
" This, just what has that boy gotten himself involved in!? " he muttered with a frown.
He immediately stood up and put on his clothes. After a short thought he grabbed the blade hanging on the wall, he had not used it since his retirement. He was currently 66 years old, despite reaching this advanced age Azuna still looked younger than his age and in good health.
He hung the blade on his back then left the house and headed outside the clan grounds toward the Naraka River that lies on the banks of Konoha.
While heading toward the Naraka River which according to Sean's message he would meet him there, Azuna thought about all the possibilities. Hundreds of negative ideas crossed his mind, the matter was not his fault but Sean's fault for being extremely vague in his message which only contained the meeting place and that the matter was a matter of life or death.
At the same time Sean sneaked near the wall of Konoha then activated the Mangekyo, the three tomoe rotated quickly then merged into the distinctive shape of a circle surrounding a black point connected to nine pillars extending outward.
His reddened right eye widened then began to bleed heavily.
" Omnivoidfield... "
An invisible field appeared and extended beyond the walls of Konoha with him inside it, Sean disappeared from his place without any trace.
Whoosh!!
He appeared on the other side inside the lands of Konoha kneeling on one knee and touching his right eye which bled a large amount of blood that covered half of his right face.
" Damn! ... " he punched the ground with his fist and cursed with resentment, the reason behind this was his discovery of the deterioration of vision in both his eyes even though he was using the ability of the right eye only.
He examined his chakra reserve and found that the instant transfer in addition to expanding the field greatly consumed more than a third of his energy. He stood up and left the place quickly toward the meeting point he had set with his father.
" Why is my vision deteriorating this fast, I remember that Sasuke and Itachi used the Mangekyo abilities many times more than me even they used Susanoo... "
While washing his face in the river Sean thought with confusion. Until now he had not used the third and exclusive ability of every Mangekyo, Susanoo, yet he had begun to lose his sight at a terrifying speed unlike Itachi and Sasuke who used Susanoo on more than one occasion especially the latter yet they endured longer than him.
" Is the matter related to the power of the ability I awakened... " this idea crossed his mind which in fact had been roaming in his head since the moment he used the ability " Omnivoidfield ".
This ability was like the cheat he did not obtain when he was born in this world, until now he had only explored a small part of the potential of this ability. Instant transfer within the field and also ignoring matter like he did with the root member were only the tip of the iceberg.
Unfortunately because of the terrifying consumption of ocular power he could not explore this ability further, not to mention that even if he found a solution to the problem of ocular power there was another problem which was the lack of sufficient chakra reserves to unleash this ability.
Sean raised his head and stared at the bright blue sky and sighed, he truly began to hate the idea of being born in this world. In his original world all he had to worry about was money, but now despite money blindness life was constantly threatened by others and that was something his small heart could not bear.
" whoever the bastard who sent me here... damn you you son of a bitch! " he muttered resentfully.
" Hmm... "
He put his chaotic thoughts aside and focused on the visitor who had arrived.
" son! You look ... miserable ... "
For the first time in days a genuine smile appeared on the features of his stiff face. Sean stared at the man with blond hair that had begun to show some traces of gray.
" Father... " this word came out of his mouth while he slowly walked toward Azuna who narrowed his eyes at Sean's miserable appearance.
" Sean what happened to you? , did you not leave to the front lines already? , what are you doing here!? " While asking with concern Azuna placed his right hand behind his back and grabbed the blade then closed his eyes and when he opened them there were crimson eyes with three tomoe slowly rotating.
" Enough, there is no need for caution, it is me... " Sean immediately activated the Sharingan ignoring the pain and irritation in the socket of his eyes. He noticed the tension and suspicion that his father had so he did the only thing to confirm his identity which was activating the Sharingan that only members of the Uchiha clan can activate and deactivate freely.
" From father's reaction it seems that I was correct in my previous guess, Danzo did not report me yet to Konoha... " Sean thought and sighed with some relief from this discovery, he was worried that his matter had become known which would only complicate things.
When seeing the Sharingan in Sean's eye sockets and also not discovering any sign of the use of the Transformation Technique, Azuna closed the Sharingan and removed his hand from the handle of the blade behind his back.
" Explain! "
" Noji... died " these words came out with difficulty from Sean's mouth.
Azuna's eyes widened upon hearing Sean's words, for a moment he suspected that he heard it wrong but when he saw the pitiful expression of his son he understood that what he heard contained no mistake.
He furrowed his brows with a deep frown. " This... " the words betrayed his mouth, in the face of such news the wisdom of fifty years of life went to the wind.
He approached Sean and hugged him patting his back, he knew how important Noji was to Sean, only God knows what his son was feeling now. He separated from him and asked with sadness and confusion.
" How did it happen!? how did Noji die? , did the war with the Land of Rain intensify!? , no that is not it, if that happened even with Noji's death I doubt you would be here... "
" I lost her in a confrontation with Hanzo of the Salamander but the matter happened before we reached the camp where Konoha's forces were stationed... "
" Hanzo of the Salamander!! "
Ignoring the traces of shock on his father's face Sean continued speaking.
" Because of the power I gained thanks to Noji's sacrifice I was able to escape from Hanzo's hand by injuring him... " Sean touched his eyes unconsciously.
" The power you gained thanks to Noji!? what are you tal... wait... " Azuna's eyes widened larger than before when he realized what his son was talking about.
As someone who lived through the period of the warring clans he had deep knowledge about the power of his clan, not to mention that he personally witnessed the power of the Ashura of the ninja world, Madara Uchiha.
" You... did you really awakened those eyes!! "
Sean nodded his head confirming his father's guess.
" Indeed, thanks to Noji's sacrifice I managed to obtain those cursed eyes that you used to talk about with my brother... "
He shook his head and added while sighing.
" But I am sorry, I cannot show them to you now, because of repeated use them my eyes started to hurt whenever I activate them... "
Azuna nodded his head and restrained his emotions that were about to overflow, if he were not a strong shinobi he would have had a heart attack from this news each one of which was earth-shattering.
