[Host Confirmed: Mikoto Uchiha (Vulpix)]
[Skills Activated: Ember, Bind]
[Trait Activated: Sunlight]
In another dimension, a rare flicker of surprise crossed Shiroishi's features.
"Fire Vulpix... This is unexpected."
Kushina Uzumaki had hatched an Ice Vulpix, bringing the Snow Warning trait along with Icy Snow and Bind.
Yet now, Mikoto Uchiha's hatched Vulpix burned with vivid flames, awakening the Sunlight trait within its body.
The Sunlight trait was a mutation of one's physical constitution.
Unlike Red's Sunlight Release, which was a technique requiring activation methods, traits were integrated into one's own Bloodline Ability.
Though both created clear weather, there were inherent differences.
Ice and fire.
Two extremes, yet perfectly corresponding.
Shiroishi adjusted his glasses, thoughts rapidly flowing:
"One is an Uzumaki, the other an Uchiha..."
Most crucially, Red of the Flame Gym used Sunlight Release as a technique, while Mikoto Uchiha naturally possessed the Sunlight trait due to her awakened trait.
Especially when Vulpix evolves into Nine Tails in the future, the entire Uchiha clan would likely become turbulent.
Meanwhile, the Uchiha compound was already in turmoil.
The wave of flames upon Vulpix's hatching had illuminated the entire clan grounds in crimson.
When the Sunlight trait unfolded, the sky instantly brightened as if daytime, visible even to ninjas on Hidden Leaf Village's main street from afar.
Deep within the Uchiha compound, the flame-wreathed Vulpix rested in Mikoto's arms, its tail tip flickering like fire.
Clan members crowded around tightly.
"Mikoto... actually awakened such powerful strength?"
"This symbolizes the pinnacle of Fire Release!"
"Heaven blesses the Uchiha!"
Excitement, fervor, and expectations all pressed upon this daughter of an elder.
Though somewhat shy and holding Vulpix with slight awkwardness, Mikoto quickly composed herself.
Stimulated by Vulpix, her bloodline also awakened a trace of Sunlight Chakra, her entire being seemingly gilded with a soft, radiant gold.
Heavenly Illumination is Yin Fire...
Is this Yang Fire then?
Amid the crowd's admiration, Mikoto's grandfather, a respected elder of the Uchiha clan, spoke with solemn gravity:
"Mikoto, accompany me to Naka Shrine tonight."
"Several elders of the clan need to meet you... and your Vulpix."
His tone was weighty, as if announcing matters of great importance.
Mikoto nodded slightly but secretly glanced toward the youth at the crowd's edge.
Fugaku Uchiha.
He stood quietly, his gaze profound yet unable to conceal his emotions.
Both astonished and gratified, with a hint of... being overshadowed?
Mikoto wanted to comfort him, stepping forward, but Fugaku's gentle voice preempted her:
"Mikoto, your Vulpix hatched exceptionally well."
There was no jealousy in his words, only genuine admiration from the heart.
The usually calm, disciplined, and meticulous young Fugaku now had flames dancing in his eyes.
Because Mikoto Uchiha's strength was also Fugaku Uchiha's honor.
Their marriage had long been arranged.
She was destined to be the mother of the Uchiha's next clan leader.
The stronger the mother, the stronger the next generation of Uchiha would be.
The Uchiha clan would grow stronger too.
Mikoto's face flushed slightly: "Fugaku-nii... you should work hard too."
Fugaku gave a soft "Mm" in response.
In truth, Fugaku was very confident.
Convinced that the Ninja Beast he would hatch would only be stronger than Mikoto's.
It seemed he had never considered the possibility that his abilities might be inferior to Vulpix.
In the flickering firelight, the Vulpix in Mikoto's arms nuzzled Fugaku's hand like a small flame, emitting a soft cry.
Deep underground in the Root headquarters.
Footsteps echoed between the dark stone walls as two masked Anbu swiftly knelt before Danzo, presenting the latest intelligence.
"Lord Danzo, a member of the Uchiha clan has hatched a fire-type six-tailed Ninja Beast."
"Simultaneously, the beast's host has awakened a special Fire Release... possessing the same Sunlight Release ability as the Flame Gym Leader."
As the final words fell, the air in the room seemed to instantly solidify.
Danzo's originally gloomy expression darkened completely.
The mysterious Flame Gym Leader from the Land of Rain.
The one who severely wounded Hanzo, crushed the Rain Ninja forces, and unleashed the Forbidden Fire Release technique known as Sun Hell.
According to intelligence, that technique completely dispersed the rain clouds, allowing the scorching sun to directly shine upon the Land of Rain, raising ground temperatures to levels unbearable for ordinary people.
It was a technique capable of influencing the course of wars.
And now...
It had actually appeared within the Uchiha clan.
Danzo's cane struck the ground with a sharp thud.
"This power? It's not merely about strength, but carries special symbolic significance as well."
Danzo understood better than anyone that this Artificial Tailed Beast appeared to possess significant potential for growth.
Then he recalled another matter: "Kushina Uzumaki's Vulpix seems to possess a snow-related ability?
Ice and fire versions of Vulpix, their abilities likely correspond to each other.
"Immediately dispatch personnel to investigate the perimeter of the Naka Shrine!
Meanwhile!
Outside the Naka Shrine.
Mikoto Uchiha slowly emerged from the shrine's main gate.
Her steps were light, yet carried an indescribable solemnity.
Beneath her haori, the fiery red Vulpix obediently perched on her shoulder, its tail tip flickering with pale golden flames as if ready to illuminate the entire clan district at any moment.
Outside the shrine, the Uchiha elders had been waiting for some time.
The moment Mikoto appeared, their hushed discussions surged like tidal waves—
"That Ninja Beast behind her..."
"It even resembles a younger form of the Nine Tails..."
Another elder spoke gravely
"I sensed her Chakra inside the shrine earlier - it carries an intense sensation of solar combustion and destruction."
As Mikoto Uchiha stepped onto the stone monument, her grandfather spoke calmly: "Mikoto, demonstrate your new power."
Mmm.
Mikoto nodded gently.
She took a deep breath, while the Fire Vulpix in her arms raised its head, its small tail swaying lightly in the air, embers scattering.
The next instant!
Mikoto raised her eyes.
As her Two-Tomoe Sharingan activated, her entire body began to combust.
Her hair transformed from black to golden-red.
What surged from deep within her wasn't ordinary fire Chakra, but compressed golden-red light of extreme intensity!
BOOM!!
Flames erupted, swirling through the air of the entire Naka Shrine.
Mikoto's figure was swallowed by the blazing radiance, her entire being seemingly sublimated into an incarnation of the scorching sun, her outline blurred within the dazzling flames.
A pillar of sunlight erupted from beneath her feet, piercing through the cloud layers.
The original sky of Hidden Leaf Village!
Was forcibly dispersed in an instant!
Sunlight poured down like a golden deluge, spilling over every rooftop throughout the village.
The weather changed drastically.
The entire Hidden Leaf was forced into clear sky mode.
As if some celestial being had plunged a flaming sun into the Shinobi World.
Before the Uchiha clansmen at Nankai Shrine, bathed in sunlight, they first froze in astonishment, then erupted in irrepressible ecstasy.
"Hahahahaha!!!"
"Sunlight Fire!! A power capable of altering celestial phenomena!!"
"The Uchiha's sun... has been born!!"
Some laughed heartily at the sky, some had tears welling up in their eyes, and others trembled with excitement.
Within the World Tree, Shiroishi observed the data before him.
"A new seed of turmoil has been born."
