Looking at the three tomoe spinning in the Hideki’s Sharingan, and feeling the chakra fluctuations he is too familiar with, Ryota could no longer deny that the person sitting on the high-back chair and looking at him with a mocking look is not his elder brother.

Even if Ryota is seriously injured right now, he won’t make this mistake.

And precisely because he is so sure, Ryota’s face was in disbelief and lost.

“How, I… I saw you die with my own eyes; I am sure that was no Genjutsu! Th… Then how come you are still alive!?” – Ryota asked in confusion.

“Hahaha… true you did see me die, but unfortunately, what we see is not always true, just because you witnessed my death does not mean that I am truly dead!”

“How can that be! D-don’t tell me you used Izanagi!?” – Ryota asked with a horrified look.

*chuckles* No, it wasn’t Izanagi either, and whatever Jutsu I used is of no importance, all you need to know is the fact that I was never dead!” – Hideki said with a faint smile.

Ryota didn’t know what to speak anymore, the only reason he was able to survive this hell hole was because of the support of his belief and desire to avenge his brother, and now he sees that his brother was never really captured, in fact, his brother was colluding with the enemy and put him under such torture, knowing this, the belief that has been supporting him to survive collapsed!

Hideki questioned in a playful tone, “Hooh, look at that face, you seem to be in disbelief, why, is it really that hard to accept?”

Ryota muttered, “Why, why did you do this!?”

Hideki stared at Ryota with a deep look and said, “Didn’t I already tell you? I want your Mangekyou Sharingan!”

“You tortured me daily, made me go through such a hell, all for Mangekyou Sharingan?” – with a saddened smile Ryota continued, “I am afraid I will disappoint you, I have to come to realize that I am not really talented enough to awaken what you desire of me. If you want the Mangekyou Sharingan so much, you will have to rely on your own ability and talent!”

Hideki chuckled, “Awakening Mangekyou Sharingan is not really a difficult task for me, otouto…”

As soon as he heard this, Ryota shouted, “THEN WHY THE FUCK DID YOU MAKE ME GO THROUGH SUCH TORTURE!?”

Hideki’s eyes narrowed, and he spoke with a solemn expression, “Because Mangekyou Sharingan is not the end of it, what I really want is the power above the level of Mangekyou Sharingan!”

“The power above the level of Mangekyou Sharingan!?” – Ryota muttered with a frown, is there any dojutsu above the level of Mangekyou Sharingan? This news was new to Ryota!

After a while of brainstorming to avail no possible result, Ryota roared hysterically, “What is the power above the level of Mangekyou Sharingan? The Mangekyou Sharingan itself is the ultimate power!”

Hideki gave Ryota a *you really are an idiot* look and said while shaking his head, “My stupid otouto, your narrow vision is what limits your life, similar to the most Uchiha. And perhaps you are right too, for useless people like you, Mangekyou Sharingan may as well be the ultimate power. But for me, Mangekyou Sharingan is just the beginning of everything!”

Ryota yelled, “I don’t understand what you are saying, you are being crazy!”

“Ever heard of the statement, ‘there is only a fine line between a genius and insane, and that is defined by his success and failure’

“And WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH EVERYTHING?!” – Shouted Ryota in anger.

“It does, otouto, it does! Now that I think about it, this does remind me of another statement that someone I admire once said, ‘People live their lives bound by what they believe to be ‘reality’ and you are no different!” – Hideki said.

“Stop playing around and answer my question, DAMN IT!” – Ryota yelled

Hideki pondered for a moment, and said, “You know anything about the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan?”

Ryota heard about this for the first time and was at a loss, “Eternal… Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan!?”

Hideki nodded and continued, “You must have heard about the rumors that Uchiha Madara gouged out his younger brother’s eyes, right? Well, those are not just rumors, he really did so! The light of Mangekyou Sharingan weakens after each use and ultimately leads to total blindness!”

Ryota was surprised, “You mean to say…?”

“Yes, the more frequent you use Mangekyou Sharingan, the faster you will lose your light.” – After a pause, Hideki continued, “And there is only one known way to counter that curse of blindness… just as Uchiha Madara did… by obtaining eternal light, that is by awakening the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan!”

Ryota understood what Hideki was referring to and was angrier, “So you want to take my eyes just like Uchiha Madara stole his brother’s!?”

Listening to Ryota’s question, Hideki’s face changed to a fanatic look, “YES! As long as, one’s eyes are changed with his blood relative, preferably brothers if possible, then the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan can be awakened, and once I obtain the same level of power as Uchiha Madara, then what Hokage, what Danzo, Uchiha Clan will not only rule over Konoha but over the entire Shinobi World!”

“I see!” – Ryota muttered with a dazed look, and fell on the ground, he can’t think of anything anymore.

If previously he thought that his brother has gone crazy, or someone was manipulating him to do such a thing, but now that he learned the secret of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, Ryota finally understood that his brother had been playing such a game!

Hideki didn’t care about Ryota and continued, “Ryota, you are my otouto, the only brother I love so dearly, and you are also the only person who can help me awaken the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, you will help me achieve my dream, won’t you?”

Ryota didn’t look up or answered Hideki, but he asked a question with an indifferent tone, “Before I answer anything, I have another thing I want to know, how did you convince Shisui to work in your plan!?”

Hearing Ryota’s question, Hideki laughed loudly, “Hahahaha, you are worried about that? Why wouldn’t Shisui help? This was all done under the knowledge and instructions of Fugaku-sama, so Shisui will obviously following Patriarch’s instructions!”

“Is that so? I guess I should have expected that!” – Ryota spoke sadly, the last bit of belief he had was also shattered now. “I have a few other questions; will you answer them!?”

“Hmm, I might, it depends on what you want to ask!” – Hideki said after a bit of mulling.

“How did you rope in Shisui’s Anbu team member, Hyuga Kuroto, into your plan!?” – asked Ryota, it was just a bit of curiosity and nothing more.

“Heh, that was very easy my dear otouto, Hyuga Kuroto is Orochimaru’s former disciple, so it was easy to convince him to work with us, after all, he would be able to research Sharingan, coupled with some threat to him and his fiancé’s life and some temptation in helping him break the ‘Caged Bird’ Curse Seal, and bam, he was literally wagging his tail to work for me, of course, he would have been disposed-off anyway, so letting him have some fun was nothing to be worried about. And now that I think about it, he didn’t really do a good job, but meh, you killed him so that’s the end of it!”

“I see…!” – Ryota nodded.

Now there was no need to take revenge from Hyuga Kuroto, this wasn’t even his doing, after all, he was working as per Hideki’s instruction, that is to say, he was just a pawn playing in the hands of his brother!

Hideki asked, “So do you have any more questions, you would like me to answer!?”

“Nii-san, will you really be gouging out my eyes?” – Ryota spoke with a surprisingly calm tone.

Hideki heard Ryota’s question but he chose to not reply to this question.

At this time, Ryota’s face changed from despair to a realization, and his expression was in a stupor, but Ryota immediately recovered, and noticing that there was no reply from his brother, Ryota continued, “I see, my question is so ridiculous that it is not even worth answering… of course you will dig out my eyes, after all, that was your goal from the very beginning…! Hahahaha… I see; I was an idiot my whole life!”

At this moment, if Ryota lifted his head to look at his brother sitting on the high-back chair, he would have noticed that Hideki was stopping his right hand with his left hand, and his body was shaking, trying to resist something; and trying to suppress something but was having a hard time doing it!

But sadly, Ryota did not lift his head, while still hanging his head, he suddenly started laughing wildly.

“Hahahahaha… ahahahahaha…… ahahahahahahahahahaha…. Ahahahahahahaha.”

Followed by the laugh, Ryota’s chakra also became terribly gloomy, even a blind person can see that Ryota’s chakra has undergone severe changes.

Looking at the saddened and maddening appearance of Ryota, Hideki suddenly shed tears of blood, and three tomoe in his Sharingan started spinning rapidly, ‘Ryota!’

“Hahahahaha… ahahahahahahahaha……. hahahahahaahahahah…….ahahaha….Fuck it!”

The very next moment, Ryota’s laughter came to an abrupt end, he suddenly raised his head, and it could be seen that his Sharingan was no longer the same as a few moments ago, but changed into a strange five-pointed star pattern.

And strangely enough, at the same moment, whether by a coincidence or some kind of resonance, the pattern of Uchiha Hideki’s Sharingan also changed from three tomoe states to an equally strange pattern.

RRROOOOOOOAAARRRRrrr………

RRROOOOOOOAAARRRRrrr………

Accompanied by two heart-shaking roars, two humungous ethereal figures appeared at the same time.

The gloomy and narrow mountain dungeon could not withstand the sudden emergence of massive figures, as a result, amidst the shaking of the mountain, the secret prison dungeon built by Hyuga Kuroto completely collapsed…!
