Renye-kun, why are you so distracted?
A few days later, within the merchant caravan.
Utatane Koharu looked at Renye, who was staring blankly from the carriage, a puzzled expression on her face.
Their mission this time was to escort the merchant caravan to the Land of Earth.
But all along the way, Renye had remained silent, clutching his weapon, lost in thought.
Originally, she hadn't wanted to ask. Everyone had their own worries, and there was no need to pry.
However, Renye was different. He was the core of the squad, and such a state was unacceptable, as it could lead to danger during the mission.
Danzo Shimura turned his head to look. This was the first time he had seen Renye in such a state.
He was very curious about what could have happened to make Renye so absent-minded throughout the journey.
Renye had been pondering the matter of awakening his Sharingan and only came back to his senses when he heard the question.
He turned to face the two curious individuals and explained, "I'm thinking about how to quickly evolve a One-Tomoe Sharingan into a Two-Tomoe, or even a Three-Tomoe Sharingan…"
"Renye-kun, is it very difficult for your Uchiha to awaken your Sharingan?" Utatane Koharu asked.
Upon hearing this, Danzo Shimura instinctively frowned, looking displeased at Utatane Koharu.
In his opinion, Koharu's question was somewhat presumptuous. Inquiring about another clan's method of awakening their Bloodline Limit was no different from being a spy.
Fortunately, Renye was their teammate. If it had been another Uchiha Clan member, they might have seized this foolish woman for interrogation.
After all, the awakening of the Sharingan was a secret of the Uchiha Clan!
Renye didn't overthink it. In his view, the Uchiha's method of awakening their Sharingan wasn't a secret, and there was nothing that couldn't be said.
"It is indeed somewhat difficult…"
Danzo Shimura was a little surprised. He hadn't expected Renye to answer such a sensitive topic, and he quickly perked up his ears.
This was a good opportunity to understand the Uchiha.
"The evolution of the Sharingan requires intense emotional stimulation, and with sufficient Chakra, it naturally evolves."
It sounded simple, but the practical application was different.
Within the Uchiha Clan, most clan members who could awaken their Sharingan stopped at the Two-Tomoe, and only a minority could activate the Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
Because the matter of intense emotion was too abstract.
Some clan members had too strong psychological resilience, making it difficult for ordinary emotions to evolve their eyes, unless they witnessed their most beloved dying before them; only then was there a chance for their eyes to evolve.
So, in the Uchiha Clan, having overly strong psychological resilience was not a good thing.
For Renye, it was even more difficult for his eyes to evolve.
He was a transmigrator, always feeling a sense of detachment from this world, unable to quickly integrate into it or form strong emotional bonds.
This was what troubled him greatly.
Ordinary emotions were difficult to stimulate him, unless… he witnessed the death of a comrade or a good friend; otherwise, it would be very difficult for his Sharingan to evolve.
Of course, intense emotions were not just anger; they also included happiness, excitement, fear…
Under life-and-death crises, the eyes could also evolve.
"So, the evolution of the Sharingan requires intense emotions?" Utatane Koharu suddenly understood.
Danzo Shimura was somewhat astonished, muttering, "Is just emotion enough?"
He had thought the evolution of the Sharingan was very complex, never expecting that mere intense emotion would suffice.
This couldn't help but make him feel a little jealous.
Damn it, it's so easy for Ninja from great clans to become strong…
Those from smaller clans, without powerful Bloodline Limits, could only work tirelessly to cultivate if they wanted to become strong.
After all that hard work, they finally became stronger, only to see a neighboring Uchiha Clan member activate their Sharingan due to anger, and their strength immediately surpassed their own. Their world would come crashing down!
Renye didn't know what Danzo was thinking, otherwise he would definitely refute him.
How could the Uchiha's awakening of their Sharingan be that simple?
Renye stroked the innocence in his hand, looking thoughtfully at the two, "What do you say, if you two died in front of me, could I awaken my Sharingan?"
Upon hearing this, the two instantly widened their eyes, revealing expressions of disbelief.
This Renye guy, has he gone crazy wanting to awaken his Sharingan?!
"Ren… Renye-kun, don't be like that." Utatane Koharu nervously swallowed.
"Haha, Renye, don't joke with us." Danzo Shimura let out a dry laugh.
Renye's idea was very dangerous, and he had to be made to abandon it.
Otherwise, they were truly afraid that Renye, for the sake of awakening his Sharingan, would play them during a mission or stand by and do nothing…
At this moment, the two finally realized the meaning of Tobirama-sensei's words back then.
【The Uchiha Clan's personality is extreme and prone to going to extremes.】
Renye quietly looked at the two, his voice cold: "I'm not joking."
As he spoke, he placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, and with a metallic hum, the blade unsheathed more than three inches.
Danzo Shimura and Utatane Koharu, seeing this, instantly widened their eyes in terror.
Holy crap, this is more terrifying than selling out teammates; he's directly making a move?!
"Renye, calm down!"
"Even if you kill us, you might not necessarily awaken your Sharingan!"
They hadn't expected Renye to actually want to attack them.
Seeing Renye's crimson eyes and indifferent expression, cold sweat instantly poured down their bodies.
If it really came to a fight, they truly weren't a match for Renye.
Alarm bells rang in Danzo and Koharu's hearts. They would die, they would really die!
Intense fear made their legs weak, so much so that they even forgot to run.
Looking at their pale faces, Renye smiled slightly, sheathing his sword, "Tsk, don't be so nervous. I was just joking with you."
Upon hearing this, their mouths twitched.
If they weren't no match for Renye, they would definitely beat this scoundrel to a pulp!
Damn it, that joke wasn't funny at all.
They had almost peed themselves just now.
"Renye-kun, you really are… you scared me to death." Utatane Koharu angrily punched Renye's chest.
"Haha, my bad." Renye scratched his head, laughing.
Danzo Shimura stared at Renye with a complex expression. He always felt that Renye hadn't been joking just now.
In that instant, Renye seemed to have truly wanted to attack them.
After all, that intense killing intent couldn't be faked…
"Tobirama-sensei was right, the Uchiha Clan are all lunatics!"
No wonder sensei always had to be wary of the Uchiha. In a situation like just now, who would dare to let the Uchiha run wild?
At this moment, he deeply understood sensei's painstaking efforts.
Thinking of this, Danzo unconsciously distanced himself from Renye.
If Renye showed any signs of that again next time, he would run away.
Renye's actions made him begin to fear the Uchiha.
Such unstable elements should be eliminated as early as possible to prevent them from harming others!
"Danzo, don't be nervous, I really was just joking with you." Renye said helplessly, looking at Danzo's small movements.
The journey was too boring, so he just wanted to make a joke to liven up the atmosphere, but he didn't expect to scare the two of them.
Danzo didn't speak, and again put more distance between himself and Renye.
Seeing this, Renye didn't know what to say.
As for whether he was joking just now, only he himself knew.
