The next day, Arata arrived early at the Nanga Shrine.
After all, the Grand Elder had lectured him thoroughly yesterday, and today's matter involved the extremely important relocation of the Uchiha clan.
If he arrived late again, wasn't he practically asking the Grand Elder to scold him again?
When Arata arrived, the Grand Elder was already waiting. However, the members of the third squad had not fully gathered yet.
Unlike the second squad.....made up of elite Uchiha ninjas sent to the Whirlpool Islands to eliminate wild beasts...the third squad was several times larger and consisted mainly of craftsmen and specialists.
Their mission was to construct the new Uchiha settlement at the chosen location.
Since their roles differed, the Grand Elder didn't reprimand them for being disorganized.
Expectations had to be adjusted based on the type of personnel.
The moment Arata stepped into the shrine, the Grand Elder saw him and nodded with a faint smile, clearly pleased that Arata had arrived early.
After entering, Arata didn't just stand in place. Instead, he walked around the interior again.
Previously, Arata had directly pulled out the Sage of Six Paths' stone tablet and thrown it into his personal space.
The giant hole left behind had already been filled in.....likely by the Grand Elder.
Since the Grand Elder never asked about the tablet, Arata chose to pretend he knew nothing.
By the time Arata finished wandering and returned to the gathering area, the third squad had finally assembled.
When the members saw him, they all greeted him respectfully.
After all, Arata was the deputy clan head, the Uchiha's strongest fighter, and.....after killing Shimura Danzo's entire group in one strike outside the village...someone who had earned their admiration.
Since the Grand Elder had already explained the mission to everyone yesterday, Arata didn't waste time.
Once all personnel stood neatly in formation, he activated his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
His pupils spun, and he used the Takamagahara eye technique...instantly transporting the entire formation of hundreds of members into his inner dimension.
After sending them away, Arata blinked. His eyes felt no discomfort.
He couldn't help feeling delighted.
Ever since he knocked out Kakashi and copied the space-time technique Kamui, Arata had gained not only a Kamui-like personal dimension, but also a space-based offensive ability.
He could twist and tear reality itself, dragging anything nearby into the rift.
Because of that, his Takamagahara eye technique had also strengthened. Now, he could transport hundreds of people at once with ease.
And since his eyes were Eternal Mangekyō, his Kamui wasn't like Kakashi's fragile version that required long preparation.
As long as Arata could see the target, he could distort space with a single thought...or, with more power, forcibly drag the target into the Kamui dimension instantly.
Uchiha Arata's newly acquired Kamui space was much like the one Uchiha Obito possessed—an empty, featureless void.
It could easily function as a spatial prison, capable of absorbing anyone directly into it.
Once someone was dragged inside, their life and death rested completely in Arata's hands.
Even tailed beasts could be locked inside without any risk of escape.
Of course, Kamui had its limitations. It couldn't confine individuals adept in space–time ninjutsu.
As long as someone possessed a spatial marker within the ninja world.....like the Fourth Hokage...they could force their way out of Kamui using an immense amount of chakra.
But for anyone who didn't know such ninjutsu, there was no choice but to stay quietly inside and pray the space's owner wouldn't forget about them and leave them to starve.
After examining his Mangekyō, Arata was about to head for the Takamagahara space when he suddenly noticed that the Great Elder had appeared at his side.
He paused his plan and turned to face him.
The Great Elder pointed at himself and said, "This time, I'm going with you all to Whirlpool Island. Take me inside as well."
Arata blinked in surprise. Only now did he notice the elder was dressed differently....already wearing full battle gear. Clearly, he had prepared ahead of time.
Arata looked at him in confusion. During yesterday's discussions, the Great Elder hadn't mentioned joining them.
Seeing his puzzled look, Great Elder Uchiha Ling snorted and said impatiently, "You think I want to go? Sitting here and staying on guard is a much better job.
But last night I learned that brat Uchiha Fugaku left his pregnant wife at home and ran off to lead the clan's expansion.
Do you think I'm that heartless? I'm going to the island to drag him back so he can spend more time with his wife."
