Orochimaru: "Hahaha~"
Orochimaru: "Black-framed Naruto-kun is truly adorable~"
Orochimaru: "However, thinking this way isn't bad. What is too rigid will break easily; being cautious is a good thing."
Senju Tobirama: "Indeed, in my eyes right now, Black-framed Naruto-kun might not lack anything, but in his own eyes, he still lacks quite a bit."
Uchiha Izuna: "The shadow left by big brother... Haha~ As expected of big brother!"
Uchiha Madara: "..."
You flatter me.
Ōnoki: "I see... Madara-senpai was indeed so powerful it caused despair. To be honest, even today, with one foot in the grave, that battle back then... it couldn't even be called a fight, yet it remains deeply etched in my memory."
Fourth Raikage: "It's simple, just have a fight."
Mabui: "Raikage-sama... the words are blunt but the logic is sound. Indeed, if Black-framed Naruto-kun could face Uchiha Madara head-on once, his thoughts would naturally clear up."
Temari: "That may be so, but... when would that even happen?"
The footage on the black-framed large screen continues:
[Sharingan, complete!]
[Vision restored.]
[Naruto feels that the world entering his eyes seems to have taken on a different appearance.]
[It's as if a nearsighted person has put on glasses.]
[Compared to the transparent world of the Byakugan.]
[The Sharingan is more focused on the real world.]
[Naruto empties his mind for a few seconds.]
[Then, he blinks.]
[He raises his hand and forms a seal with one hand.]
[Buzz—]
[Ice Release.]
[A sphere of water first appears in Naruto's hand, then freezes at an extremely fast speed.]
[After that, it turns into a mirror.]
["Two-Tomoe Sharingan in the left eye, Three-Tomoe Sharingan in the right eye."]
["This is... Sasuke's current ocular power."]
["The ocular power that fed back is missing the Three-Tomoe power of the left eye."]
[Silence for a moment.]
[Naruto settles his mind.]
[Taking advantage of the time before the Sage Body is fully developed, he tries to use his eyes and the ocular power fed back from Sasuke in his mind as a foundation.]
[Combined with the whispered Chakra of Ashura in his mind.]
[He attempts to convert his own Chakra into ocular power.]
[Theory is just theory after all.]
[At this moment, putting it into practice, Naruto is still a bit uncertain.]
[But fortunately, the result seems even simpler than he imagined.]
[Born from the same root...]
[Ocular power conversion successful.]
[Next is...]
[Naruto takes a deep breath.]
[Then he directs all of that successfully converted ocular power toward his left eye.]
[Click—]
[In the next instant, Naruto feels a slight restriction in his brain being broken through.]
[Buzz—]
[In the ice mirror in his hand, his reflected image undergoes a change.]
[The left eye, which was originally only a Two-Tomoe.]
[Under the impact of the converted ocular power.]
[A clear change occurs.]
[The two tomoe rotate around the pitch-black pupil.]
[They stop after a few rotations.]
[Those symmetrical two tomoe have somehow become a triangular Three-Tomoe Sharingan.]
[Three-Tomoe in both eyes.]
[The feeling is instantly different.]
[The enhancement isn't as intense as imagined.]
[But it is smooth.]
[He casts his gaze forward once again.]
[Things he couldn't see before are revealed one by one.]
[And the basic memories of the Sharingan flood into his mind.]
[Observation, Copying, Hypnosis, Genjutsu... etc., the use and introduction of the Sharingan's basic abilities.]
[Naruto looks up at the sky.]
[Just then, a bird flies by.]
[Slow!]
[Very slow!]
[It's as if the entire world has slowed down.]
["Is this the dynamic vision unique to the Sharingan that Kakashi-sensei mentioned?"]
["Chakra control has also become more effortless with the awakening of the Sharingan."]
["No wonder the Uchiha and Hyuga experience a qualitative leap in combat power after awakening their eyes."]
[He observes for a while longer to satisfy his curiosity.]
[The Sage Eyes are indeed very useful.]
[Whether it's the Byakugan or the Sharingan, both make Naruto feel incredibly novel.]
[At the same time, he also notices changes in his body.]
[Not just the strengthening brought by the Sharingan.]
[But also... a step further into 'All Creation'.]
[It's about time.]
[The thought had just arisen.]
[A large amount of golden Chakra surges from Naruto's body surface, instantly donning a golden Chakra cloak.]
["Such powerful vitality!"]
[Naruto raises an eyebrow, startled by another unfamiliar yet familiar Chakra surging within his body.]
["This feeling... could it be... one of the Uzumaki Clan's Secret Techniques hidden in their bloodline... Heal Bite?"]
["Even in historical documents... the number of Uzumaki clansmen who could awaken this ability is few and far between."]
["An ability like this..."]
[Naruto thinks of the descriptions of the God of Shinobi, Senju Hashirama, in historical documents.]
[A self-healing ability even more powerful than a Tailed Beast's.]
[Fatal wounds can be restored to their original state in the blink of an eye.]
[Naruto knows the Great Fox's healing ability all too well.]
[Even Wife Izumi relied on the Great Fox's Yang Release Chakra to recover back then.]
["The Uzumaki Clan's Heal Bite is only stronger, not weaker!"]
["Perhaps it doesn't match Senju Hashirama's self-healing ability, but the Uzumaki Clan's Heal Bite isn't just for oneself; it can heal others."]
["Combined with the Great Fox's Yang Release Chakra... it might not be much inferior to Senju Hashirama!"]
[Naruto's breathing becomes rapid.]
[The power of bloodlines is somewhat beyond imagination.]
[Every single one is an extremely useful ability.]
[The current direction of development is correct!]
[He absolutely has the qualifications to play the bloodline... lineage theory game.]
[Similarly, he also has the qualifications to play with powers beyond bloodlines and Chakra!]
["Looking at it this way... if I only focus on the Sage Body and Sage Eyes... then my upper limit will be locked."]
["Whether it's the Sage Eyes or the Sage Body."]
["They are all powers divided from the Six Paths Sage. If gathered entirely... my achievements probably won't be much different from the Six Paths Sage."]
[Another silence.]
[Suddenly, Naruto shakes his head. "Too ambitious."]
["However, right now I'm just missing the Adamantine Sealing Chains."]
[Naruto also roughly understands how to stimulate and activate his Sage Body.]
[Immediately, he closes his eyes.]
[He begins a new round of attempts.]
[His eyes return to normal.]
["One more time, and the Adamantine Sealing Chains should be activated."]
[Great Fox: "..."]
[You brat! What's with that mischievous smirk on your face?!]
[A moment later.]
[Naruto finishes his preparations.]
[He begins the attempt.]
[Left eye, Sharingan.]
[Buzz—]
[Awakening it on only one side feels a bit strange.]
[But fortunately, it's within the range of tolerance.]
["Add a bit more Spiritual Power."]
[Poof—]
[Another Shadow Clone meditating in the Sealing Space dispels itself.]
["Open again."]
[Buzz—]
[Right eye, Byakugan.]
[Boom—]
[When the blood vessels around the right eye bulge and the eye becomes a pure, flawless Byakugan.]
[Some kind of restriction in the brain seems to have been broken through again.]
[A brand new feeling surges in his heart.]
[It's wonderful.]
[Naruto clenches his fist.]
[The physical changes brought about aren't large.]
[But in terms of fine Chakra control and other aspects, there's a geometric increase compared to a single Sage Eye.]
['Complete Sage Eyes'?]
[Boom—]
[There's that feeling of some restriction in the brain being broken through again.]
["Is it the Adamantine Sealing Chains?"]
[No! That's not right!]
[This feeling... two types... multiple Chakra combinations...]
[Water-attribute Chakra combining with Earth-attribute Chakra...]
