Naruto: Forbidden Arts and an Immortal Agenda

The next morning.

After stuffing himself with food and drink, Aozora made his way straight to the Chief's office at Police Force HQ.

When he saw Aozora, Fugaku's dead-fish expression instantly broke into a smile.

Yet, because of his usual authoritative demeanor, the smile came off as stiff and unnatural. As Aozora and Kyudai stepped inside, it sent a cold shiver down both their spines.

"Aozora, I knew you always had the Clan in your heart!"

With that, Fugaku picked up a document from his desk as if preparing to hand it over to Aozora.

Faced with Fugaku's enthusiasm, Aozora waved him off directly. "I'm still on vacation."

Kyudai watched helplessly as the coveted file was rejected by Aozora, his heart breaking into pieces.

Give it to me!

He doesn't want it? Give it to me already!

Clan Head, I'm your loyal assistant!

Aozora skips work every single day—clearly not worthy of your trust!

Overcome with emotion, Kyudai's eyes bulged wide, red from sheer frustration.

Aozora didn't see Kyudai's expression behind him.

Otherwise, just for the sake of the Clan, Aozora might've teased Kyudai a little—maybe even pushed him toward unlocking Three Tomoe.

Of course, Fugaku paid no attention to his little assistant's inner turmoil. Regretfully setting the document aside, he gave a cold snort. "If you're not here to work, then what are you doing at the Police Force?"

Aozora smiled sheepishly. "I came here to see you!"

Fugaku asked, "What do you need me for? Did you come to ask permission to leave the village?"

He couldn't imagine anything urgent Aozora might have needed.

Aozora reminded him, "Chief, you were the one who told me to come find you."

There was Kyudai present, and though he didn't seem like a bad person, caution was necessary. Aozora wasn't ready to reveal his true abilities yet.

"You telling me to come find you?" Furrowing his brow, Fugaku repeated the words.

As he spoke, he tried to recall.

But nothing surfaced.

Seeing this, Aozora could only wink meaningfully at him.

Furrowing his brows in thought, Fugaku suddenly changed expressions—he had a shocking realization.

"You..."

He was about to voice his suspicion but stopped himself when he noticed Aozora hadn't revealed anything either.

After a moment's hesitation, he suppressed the storm within and calmly said to Kyudai, "Kyudai, represent me and inspect the Northern District. Check whether the officers are slacking off!"

The Police Force headquarters were located in the Southern District.

Hearing this, Kyudai shot up eagerly at once. "Yes! I'll get it done—no problem!"

After receiving the order, Kyudai even raised an eyebrow mockingly at Aozora.

Aozora blinked in disbelief—didn't this guy realize he was being sent away?

Suddenly, Aozora felt like the IQ level in the whole office dropped a few points.

Once Kyudai left, Fugaku looked at Aozora with immense anticipation and said, "You... you've unlocked Three Tomoe."

Aozora modestly nodded. Three Tomoe isn't a big deal, really.

Though Aozora remained composed, Fugaku was deeply shocked.

Back then, when he first learned that Aozora had awakened the Two Tomoe Sharingan, he had already been amazed.

Within the Uchiha Clan, a relatively high percentage of members awaken the Sharingan. Awakening it at age twelve wouldn't be unusual.

But awakening directly into Two Tomoe? That was extremely rare in Uchiha history—those who did were usually extraordinarily gifted ninja.

Since the founding of the village, the only other case besides Aozora of someone awakening directly with Two Tomoe had been the late Obito.

The last time after the protest, Fugaku rewarded Aozora with two Sharingan dojutsu. One reason was to express gratitude and secure his loyalty; the other was the hope that Aozora wouldn't let his potential go to waste.

Later on, Aozora indeed proved his talent by beheading a Jonin-level spy in a single slash, then eliminating multiple Rogue Ninja and even two Jonin from Iwagakure during an escort mission.

Privately pleased, Fugaku encouraged Aozora further by offering access to the Clan's Secret Techniques, hoping this young talent would awaken the Three-Tomoe soon.

Fugaku knew the Two-Tomoe and Three-Tomoe Sharingan were completely different. The Three-Tomoe would surely elevate Aozora's strength to another level, making him a pillar on which the Uchiha could rely.

He looked forward to that day, though never expecting it would arrive so quickly.

After all, according to intelligence reports, Aozora had only awakened his Sharingan two months ago.

Uchiha Aozora—awakened Sharingan at age twelve, initially showing Two Tomoe. Two months later, he evolved to the Three-Tomoe.

This is what the Uchiha clan history records. Would anyone believe it?

Even Fugaku himself found it hard to accept. He paced thoughtfully before turning to ask sternly, "Show me!"

With the goal of learning Izanagi from Fugaku, Aozora had no intention of hiding his abilities.

His eyes closed briefly, then reopened—revealing his deep black irises now showing the mysterious and awe-inspiring Three-Tomoe Sharingan.

Fugaku instinctively stepped closer, carefully studying the three black tomoe swirling within those blood-red eyes.

Seeing Aozora's pure and imposing Three-Tomoe Sharingan, Fugaku asked in surprise, "When exactly did you evolve into the Three-Tomoe Sharingan?"

Aozora replied, "Yesterday!"

"How come?" Fugaku shook his head in disbelief. "There's not even a hint of murkiness in your eyes. Not a single trace of chakra leakage after activating your Sharingan—you must've awakened long ago."

"But really, I did evolve into Three-Tomoe yesterday night."

Aozora insisted he wasn't lying, then asked curiously, "Clan Head, does evolving into Three-Tomoe Sharingan differ for others compared to myself?"

Fugaku nodded, "Of course! The leap from Two-Tomoe to Three-Tomoe Sharingan is huge."

His tone darkened as he continued, "Most clan members only evolve after experiencing some traumatic event. And even when they do awaken the Three-Tomoe, lacking control often damages their eyesight and may cause sudden changes in personality at the moment of awakening."

Aozora slowly nodded at this.

He roughly understood now—others awakened through emotional trauma, while he achieved it through chakra mastery. Hence why others suffered side effects but he remained perfectly fine.

After finishing his explanation, Fugaku suddenly turned serious and asked, "Have you left the village in the past two weeks? Why didn't you report this to me sooner?"

It wasn't about controlling Aozora's movements—it was concern for his safety.

Recently during missions outside the village, two Jonin-level Uchiha had already gone missing.

Aozora shook his head. "I haven't been anywhere. Just cultivated at home, actually—I only went out yesterday."

Hearing that, Fugaku raised his eyebrows in astonishment and quickly asked, "Then how exactly did you evolve?"

[Sharingan awakening] has always remained a mystery.

Though they understood emotional trauma could trigger evolution, the Uchiha were not cruel—they would never intentionally create tragedy solely to gain power.

Aozora hesitated for a moment before replying blankly, "I don't know. I took a nap last night, and when I woke up, I had the Three Tomoe."

Since Aozora didn't want to reveal the secret of the Heavenly Book, he could only lie to Fugaku.

"A nap..." Fugaku frowned in thought for a moment. "Did you have a dream?"

Aozora replied casually, "Maybe!"

Fugaku seemed to have his suspicions confirmed, his eyes gleaming with intensity.

"Then what did you dream about? Was it a nightmare?"

Caught off guard, Aozora helplessly made something up following Fugaku's line of questioning.

"I did have a dream—it was a nightmare... I dreamed Shisui died... He died horribly—one of his eyes was gouged out... He fell off a cliff, and there wasn't even a bone left..."

As he spoke, Aozora's mood sank.

He had indeed had this dream before. Knowing what became of Shisui, Aozora had often dreamed about it since childhood.

Seeing his reaction, Fugaku comforted him, "It was just a false vision! With Shisui's strength, almost nobody in the Ninja World could even touch him."

After consoling Aozora, Fugaku said proudly, "I think I understand how your evolution happened!"

Aozora's gloomy mood was abruptly interrupted, leaving him stunned and confused.

"How did you even figure that out?"

"You actually figured it out?"

"What exactly do you think you've found out?"
