Three days later, Uzumaki Mito was preparing to say her farewells and leave.

The purpose of her runaway escapade was to confirm Kyosuke's safety.

Logically, she should have already decided to return to the Land of Whirlpools, but for certain reasons, she had been reluctant to leave.

Now that she had appeared openly at the Uchiha clan's outpost, it was only a matter of time before word spread.

Not wanting to incite another war between the two clans, the only option left for Mito was to leave as quickly as possible.

"I'm leaving now~" Standing at the entrance of the camp, the young girl swayed her twin buns playfully, her large eyes fixed on the boy with a mischievous glint.

"Mm, take care on your way." Kyosuke responded, glancing toward Uchiha Izumi and the special escort squad he had specially assembled.

Each member of the team was an elite, not only highly skilled but also proficient in the Chidori technique.

Combined with his specially crafted "Alert Talisman," they were more than capable of ensuring the little girl's safe return to the Land of Whirlpools.

The Alert Talisman, resembling a small satchel, would send a signal to Kyosuke no matter the distance when crushed.

Thanks to time-space coordinates scattered throughout the Land of Fire, he could swiftly reach any location, allowing him to pull off seemingly impossible rescue missions.

"Rest assured, my lord, I will ensure Lady Mito's safety with my life," one of the team members declared.

"Good." Kyosuke nodded, signaling with his eyes that they could depart.

Everything that needed to be said had already been discussed over the past three days; there was no need for more parting words now.

At least, that's what Kyosuke thought. Mito, however, had a different plan in mind.

What could she do? With how popular Kyosuke was among the Uchiha, she couldn't bear the thought of something unexpected happening to him while she wasn't around.

Outwardly, she nodded and turned as if preparing to leave, but her large eyes darted mischievously around, searching for someone.

Before long, a sneaky figure appeared in the distance—it was Maya.

She handed a large megaphone to the Uzumaki princess before retreating quietly back the way she came.

Of course, she didn't go far. After all, she had been looking forward to what was about to happen for days.

"Ahem." Mito raised the megaphone Maya had prepared, took a deep breath, and shouted.

"Kyosuke! You must hurry up and marry me!!!"

Her voice, amplified by the device, echoed across the entire camp.

You must come and marry me!

Come and marry me!

Marry me!

For a moment, the entire camp fell into an eerie silence.

Uchiha Tajima, who had been eating, froze.

Madara, instructing his subordinates in training, froze.

Uchiha Izuna, rushing back to camp, froze.

Even Kaijun, who had remained behind closed doors for the past three days, froze.

It was as if someone had pressed the pause button on the entire Uchiha clan. Everyone collectively wondered who was brave enough to say something like that.

"Hehe, now no one will dare make a move on him," the twin-bun princess smirked with satisfaction before tossing aside the megaphone and bolting into the distance.

Back in the camp, Kyosuke covered his face with his hand, thinking it might be best to avoid showing up for a while.

Those legion Commanders had notoriously sharp tongues; while he prided himself on his wit, he wasn't confident enough to fend off all their banter.

If it were about debating with a bunch of busty women, I might stand a better chance.

Unfortunately, the calm was short-lived. Before Kyosuke could recover from the embarrassment of the public proposal, someone barged into his tent with great fervor.

"Haha, so you're really not dead after all!"

The visitor was none other than Uchiha Izuna, returning from his training journey.

---

At the Uchiha camp's rear mountains, in the training grounds:

"Sigh." Feeling the unusual stares from those around him, Kyosuke let out a deep sigh, lamenting his misfortune.

He was genuinely glad about Izuna's return.

Along with Uchiha Madara, the three brothers reunited, enjoying a long-overdue moment of camaraderie with hotpot and songs. It was as relaxing as could be.

But of course, Kyosuke had to ruin it by casually asking Izuna about his training progress, leading to the current situation.

"Hmph." Perhaps sensing Kyosuke's casual attitude, Izuna crossed his arms in imitation of his elder brother, and spoke with smug confidence, "You better watch out. If you lose to me, it'll be a disgrace.

"Don't worry; that won't happen."

"Tch, if you've got the guts, don't use your Mangekyo."

"Fine, no Mangekyo."

The kid had grown up—he even knew how to use reverse psychology now.

Kyosuke wasn't planning to use the Mangekyo anyway. The power of those eyes was far too valuable to squander needlessly.

While Mangekyo's ocular power could gradually recover over time, each use without proper replenishment would decrease the upper limit of his total visual capacity.

When that limit was reached, symptoms like blurred vision would start to appear.

For a friendly spar, there was no need to go all out—especially since Izuna might not even be strong enough to warrant such measures.

"Don't underestimate him, Kyosuke," Madara suddenly said with a chuckle.

As soon as the words left Madara's mouth, Izuna appeared right in front of Kyosuke, raising his blade and delivering a terrifying slash.

Uchiha Style: Flaming Sword Slash!

So fast! Kyosuke instinctively activated his Sharingan.

Unleashing his Chidori Blade, he managed to block the sudden attack, albeit barely.

It was at that moment Kyosuke realized Izuna was no longer the little kid he could easily brush off.

In the original storyline, Izuna was hailed as an enemy who "barely showed any weaknesses."

Even Tobirama Senju, who mastered techniques like Flying Thunder God, Shadow Clones, and Edo Tensei, couldn't gain the upper hand against Izuna until he reached his second stage of mastery.

This alone spoke volumes about Izuna's extraordinary prowess.

"Interesting," Kyosuke murmured, releasing a burst of chakra to force Izuna back.

He then unleashed Chidori Sharp Spear, a five-meter-long lightning blade that shot toward Izuna in an instant.

However, with a nimble roll, Izuna easily dodged the attack.

"This guy is incredibly agile." Kyosuke frowned, his amazement growing.

Izuna's flexibility and agility were remarkable. Combined with his refined swordsmanship, he could counter almost any attack.

Most importantly, Izuna's proficiency in Fire Release was even greater than Madara's.

As Kyosuke used the Body Flicker Technique to dodge attacks, he couldn't help but ponder a question:

What exactly was Izuna's Mangekyo Sharingan ability?

During the Fourth Great Ninja War, Senju Tobirama once praised Sasuke, saying he had never seen such a powerful Kagutsuchi.

This implied Tobirama had encountered the technique before.

Given Tobirama's mastery of Water Release, Izuna must have possessed Kagutsuchi to be able to fight him to a stalemate.

This particular ocular technique allowed the user to manipulate all flames, including Amaterasu, and extinguish them while simultaneously enhancing their power.

"A remarkable ability," Kyosuke thought with a smile, "Its boost to foundational strength is significant."

As he mused, Kyosuke casually tossed a specially-designed kunai.

"Flying Thunder God?" Izuna tilted his head in confusion, wondering if Kyosuke had lost his mind.

Given his understanding of the technique, such an attack seemed childishly simple.

Swish!

Kyosuke's figure vanished along with the kunai.

By the time Izuna realized what had happened, a slash had already appeared across the front of his clothing.

The match was decided—

Kyosuke had won.
