The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 644 Two Plans

Fugaku, Mayumi, Itachi, Shisui.

Chiyo suddenly noticed that Fugaku was wearing a pair of thick glasses, as thick as the bottom of a beer bottle, which looked rather comical.

However, compared to being blind, this appearance is nothing.

"What, Fugaku, can't you see it anymore?"

Qian Yao's tone carried a hint of amusement.

Fugaku, however, remained nonchalant and calmly replied:

"It's good that the clan leader is back. Look at my eyes, should I fuse them with Itachi's, or wait for Sasuke to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

In fact, given Orochimaru's abilities, cloning a pair of eyes is a piece of cake.

Whether from a technical standpoint or in terms of the various materials required, it is an easy task.

However, it should be noted that even if the eyes are successfully cloned, these newly generated eyes have not yet activated the Sharingan state in the initial stage; they are just ordinary eyes.

That's why Fugaku made do with his original eyes and used his body to nurture these Mangekyou Sharingan.

It's important to understand that the Mangekyou Sharingan is undoubtedly a crucial strategic resource for the entire Uchiha clan.

The specific power to distribute these resources should rightfully belong to Qianyao, who is the clan leader.

It's not like Fugaku can just give it to whomever he wants.

If Chiyo fails to return to the clan for an extended period, the Uchiha clan may have to elect a new clan head.

Of course, many of the clansmen still hoped that Qianyao could return as soon as possible to take control of the situation.

After all, looking at the entire clan, how many people possess such extraordinary wisdom and unparalleled combat power as Qian Yao?

Qianyao didn't rush to answer. Instead, he looked at Itachi and asked:

How are your physical and eye conditions right now?

Itachi first bowed respectfully to Chiyo, and then replied:

"Senior, I have always gone to Lord Orochimaru regularly for a full physical examination."

"For now, my health is pretty good. It's just that..."

At this point, Itachi paused slightly:

After experiencing that war, my eyesight deteriorated significantly.

"To be specific, I currently have about 100 degrees of astigmatism and nearly 300 degrees of myopia."

Upon hearing Itachi's words, Chiyo nodded slightly in understanding.

After all, such a degree of vision impairment might not cause too much trouble in the daily lives of ordinary people.

However, for Itachi, a ninja, even the slightest change in vision could be the key to life or death, which is quite fatal.

Thinking about all this, Qianyao reached out and gently patted Itachi's broad and sturdy chest a few times.

There was a series of thumping sounds, and the firm, powerful touch came through my palm; clearly, it was all tight, hard muscle.

Looking at Itachi, who had grown into a young man, and recalling his own youthful and naive appearance, Chiyo felt a pang of emotion.

It must be admitted that Itachi's body has indeed become much stronger and more robust since his youth.

Moreover, according to the original timeline, someone his age should have been frail and sickly, or even terminally ill.

In retrospect, it seems that Itachi's illness was caused by the immense psychological pressure he carried due to premature and excessive use of the Mangekyou Sharingan, as well as the personal slaughter of many of his own clansmen.

His overall physical condition is very good now.

Although Itachi's eye power has indeed been depleted to some extent.

Fortunately, these losses were within a reasonable and tolerable range and did not fundamentally reduce his strength.

"Regarding the eyes, I think we need to reconsider. By the way, what's the progress on finding Jing's body that I asked you to do?"

After answering Fugaku, Chiyo turned his gaze to Shisui.

After all, the first stage of the Mangekyou Sharingan is not perfect and has certain flaws.

Now that we have a powerful team composed of an outstanding life science expert like Orochimaru and a highly skilled medical expert like Tsunade, we should naturally try our best to make up for these shortcomings.

The best solution would undoubtedly be to complete the genes and enhance the pupil's power, thereby prompting it to evolve into the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

However, all the members of Shisui's clan had already passed away, and the one closest to the present day was Uchiha Kagami.

Unfortunately, Jing died many years ago, and his body has been missing ever since.

In response to Qianyao's question, Zhishui gently shook his head and replied:

"It hasn't been found yet. Orochimaru's side has sent word that we might have to use a second or third plan."

This so-called second option is actually to inject a solution of interstitial cells into the body to restore the upper limit of pupil power.

However, this method carries significant risks. This is because the cells within the intercolumnar cells possess an exceptionally strong cellular will, and the slightest mistake could very likely lead to experimental failure.

The result of failure is, naturally, to become a tree.

The third option is relatively more complicated, but it is also more reliable and stable.

The Sharingan of the Uchiha clan is considered one of the top bloodline limits in the ninja world, but when it evolves into the Mangekyou Sharingan, it hides a huge crisis.

Due to the instability of genes, this evolution often leads to the collapse of physical tissues.

The reason behind acquiring the eyes of a blood relative is not simply to complete the gene pool; it is also crucial for perfecting pupil function.

This is why a third feasible solution emerged – the bloodline fusion method.

The specific method involves extracting blood from Zhishui and comparing it with the blood of everyone in the clan.

In this way, those whose bloodline is particularly similar to Shisui can be screened out, and then they can be allowed to undergo bloodline fusion attempts in the hope of finding an individual that is perfectly compatible with Shisui.

All of these operations were carried out in accordance with the model used by Chiyo in its advance into Eternal Kaleidoscope.

It's worth mentioning that Shisui himself didn't actually rely excessively on his Mangekyou Sharingan.

Over the years, he has carefully preserved his pupillary power, so that his eyes are now almost undamaged.

Therefore, there is no need to rush into taking action regarding stopping the water.

At this moment, Qianyao turned to look at Zhenyu and asked:

"Mayumi, so what's your situation now?"

The issue mentioned here is naturally related to the eyes.

Since Mayumi successfully awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, all kinds of related knowledge have been completely opened to him.

After learning that the Mangekyou Sharingan had a serious flaw that could lead to blindness, Mayumi began cooperating with Orochimaru to conduct various experiments and research in an attempt to find a solution.

Mayumi replied, "Clan leader, I am currently using the third bloodline fusion scheme."

"We used my daughter's Sharingan gene, but so far, we haven't observed any obvious results."

"Next, Lord Orochimaru plans to further replenish Yang Release chakra to accelerate the catalytic process."

"However, my vision loss is not severe and will not affect the battle for the time being."

After listening, Qian Yao nodded slightly to show his understanding, and said in a deep voice:

"Okay, I understand your situation. I will discuss it with Orochimaru later."

"That's all for today, I'm going to visit the children."

After saying that, he flashed away, instantly using the Instantaneous Movement Technique, and left as swiftly as the wind.
