"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated." In his last battle where he died, Gensou suffered due to a lack of intelligence.

Although he was now deeply immersed in his training and research, he hadn't forgotten to stay informed about the latest developments in the ninja world.

Fortunately, Jomae Village specialized in this kind of work.

While they might not be able to obtain the highest-level secrets of the Five Great Ninja Villages, they could still grasp and analyze the overall situation.

For example, by gathering information on the storage and transportation of food supplies in each village, they could predict the likelihood of wars.

Recently, the ninja world had been relatively peaceful.

Due to the convening of the second Five Kage Summit, the friction between the Five Great Ninja Villages had decreased significantly compared to the past.

After more than a decade of recuperation, the signs of the Fourth Great Ninja War, which should have been rising like before the previous three, seemed to be a distant prospect.

Instead, the Joint Intelligence Division established by the Five Great Ninja Villages during the summit had been making a lot of noise, appearing in many places.

Although they hadn't found any information related to Gensou, they had discovered and destroyed several of Orochimaru's secret bases, and even uncovered a hidden base of the Akatsuki.

One had to admit, when the Five Great Ninja Villages got serious, their efficiency was remarkable.

After silently mourning for Orochimaru and the Akatsuki for a second, Gensou continued to review the intelligence scroll.

In summary, there were no wars in the ninja world.

But when he saw at the end of the report that there were signs of Konoha ninja activity in the Land of Keys, Gensou's gaze sharpened slightly:

"Have you determined the purpose of the Konoha ninja coming to the Land of Keys?"

Ali nodded, "A Konoha team received a C-rank mission to escort a caravan to the Land of Keys. We investigated the caravan leader who issued the mission to Konoha and found nothing suspicious."

"A coincidence?"

Gensou didn't believe in coincidences.

Perhaps this time it was indeed a coincidence.

But after one coincidence, a second and third visit would only be a matter of time.

Although he didn't consider Konoha's ninja a threat to himself, they could pose significant trouble for the Hagoromo clan and many ordinary people without ninja abilities living in the Land of Keys.

"It seems that the conflict between Jomae Village and Konoha hasn't completely dissipated."

If Konoha truly knew he was in Jomae Village, they wouldn't just be making these minor moves.

Most likely, because of Hanare's previous intelligence conflict, Konoha had marked Jomae Village and was now taking advantage of the situation to see if there were any unexpected gains.

"It's time to bring up the retreat plan for Jomae Village."

"Additionally, it's time for me to make some moves outside. Otherwise, Konoha might keep focusing on this place."

After Hanare left, Gensou looked thoughtfully at a functioning cultivation tank.

"Just in time, the test subject in the tank has matured. I'll take it out to test the results and handle some other matters."

Gensou walked to the cultivation tank and opened the sealed door. Inside the tank filled with green nutrient fluid lay a body distinct from its peers, a white Zetsu.

"With the integration of my cells and Uchiha cells, and after extensive modification, this white Zetsu has an exceptional talent for Yin Release. With Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan implanted, it won't have any side effects, making it perfect for my further research on Yin chakra."

During the Warring States period, due to the Sharingan, Gensou had invested the least in genjutsu.

After all, everyone knew that no matter how advanced the genjutsu, it was useless against the Sharingan, an eye that surpassed genjutsu.

Therefore, among the seven chakra natures, Gensou had the least mastery of Yin Release chakra.

Even though he had mastered Yin-Yang Release, the lag in Yin Release made further development of Yin-Yang Release difficult.

To achieve the Kekkei Mora, he needed comprehensive research on all seven chakra natures.

In the past, Gensou would have spent a lot of time slowly exploring Yin Release chakra.

But now, he had found a promising shortcut.

Every Uchiha who awakened their Sharingan was an expert in Yin Release.

And Uchiha who awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, especially those with genjutsu-based dojutsu, had an unparalleled understanding of Yin Release chakra.

Although Shisui was gone, one of his Mangekyou Sharingan remained.

This eye contained immense power and information.

For Gensou, the vast information behind this power was more valuable.

Initially, Gensou planned to transplant Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan into his eye socket for

thorough research to accelerate his development of Yin Release chakra.

But after trying, he found that the Mangekyou Sharingan strongly rejected him, a non-

Uchiha, making the research process slow and inefficient.

While it was still faster than exploring Yin Release chakra alone, after capturing several white Zetsu, Gensou came up with a better idea.

He modified a white Zetsu by integrating Hagoromo and Uchiha cells to perfectly harness the Mangekyou Sharingan's abilities. With his cells involved, it was easier to control.

Just like now.

"Spirit Transformation: Projection!"

Gensou clapped his hands, and his soul projected a shadow that quickly merged into the

modified white Zetsu.

Absorbing the Shinigami's arm not only strengthened his soul but also granted him one of the

Shinigami's abilities, soul projection.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Similar to the Astral Projection technique.

After Gensou's modifications, it became the Spirit Transformation: Projection technique.

The soul projection could travel thousands of miles instantly, possess a body, and control it.

Though the power it wielded was limited, the main body could instantly swap places with the projection under the Spirit Transformation: Projection technique.

Now, with the soul projection entering, the white Zetsu, whose soul had been erased, opened

its eyes. With a thought, its body rapidly transformed.

When it stood up again, it had taken on Gensou's appearance from his previous life.

"Try implanting the Mangekyou Sharingan."

Gensou handed over Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan and instructed.

The white Zetsu, under the projection's control, nodded. After a simple eye transplant technique, the blood-red Mangekyou Sharingan with black blade-like patterns settled in its right eye socket. The black blades rotated a few times before calming down.

Gensou's gaze shifted.

The main body and the projection swapped places instantly.

At this moment, with the main body inside the white Zetsu, Gensou felt everything within it

more clearly and smiled in satisfaction.

"Indeed, the Mangekyou Sharingan has fully opened up to me."
