--------------------------------------------------------------

So, a year later, Sasuke started his "school" days again.

Now, he goes to Onikiri's dojo to practice swordsmanship during the day and continues to delve into the knowledge of psychic secret techniques at home at night, keeping his schedule full.

And all Kaito needs to do is spend a little time each evening answering some of Sasuke's questions.

Teaching children is really easy, I'm definitely good at this sort of thing.

Kaito genuinely thought.

Based on his own experience, cultivation is all about self-effort.

He's now even found the best swordsmanship teacher for Sasuke and answers his questions daily, which is already an extra attentive education.

Luckily, he didn't say it out loud, so he doesn't know whether Sasuke would cry from anger if he heard it.

During this time, Kaito was busy tinkering with new paper dolls.

The paper dolls he previously cut from the sealing scrolls were a new material for him that couldn't be used directly. They needed some processing, most importantly adjusting and drawing the runes.

Once this batch of paper dolls was processed, the next step was to test their stability.

Hmm... Should I summon that old man to see?

Kaito had a sudden idea, did as he thought, and immediately performed a soul-calling technique using blood as a guide.

"Urgent as a decree!"

The light of spiritual power lit up in the dim room, and as the technique succeeded, the tiny paper doll turned into a gray-haired old man.

"What's going on, I thought I was dead." Uchiha Shō opened his eyes to see a familiar yet strange young man.

"Yo, old man, long time no see." Kaito waved with a smile.

"It's you, brat." Uchiha Shō's expression immediately became stern, looking at Kaito with disdain, "Finally got rid of your useless status, huh? Seems like the years you spent outside weren't entirely wasted."

He sensed his body and found that although his state was a bit odd, he could still exert some combat power.

So, he started to gather his aura, telling Kaito, "I don't know how you managed to do this. But now that you've gained power, let me properly assess whether you're worthy of the Uchiha name."

As he spoke, he began to form hand signs, with clear chakra fluctuations appearing around him.

Kaito rolled his eyes ungracefully and formed a hand sign as well.

"Don't forget you're an Uchiha, I..." Uchiha Shō froze mid-sentence, his words stuck in his throat.

"Hmph, I was just doing an experiment with the technique, not needing to listen to your boring lectures again." Kaito's face broke into a satisfied smile.

He had always wanted to do this, a childhood dream finally realized!

What a relief to the body and mind.

Due to taking his mother's life at birth and later being discovered as a chakra insulator, Kaito grew up with his father as if they were sworn enemies.

If it weren't for having a sister more than a decade older than him at home, he really couldn't guarantee he would grow up smoothly.

So, before summoning Uchiha Shō, he had already anticipated the ensuing scene.

However, it seems the material produced this time is quite useful.

The old man probably had the strength of a Jōnin during his life, which didn't affect his ability to fight.

Even if he could only exhibit a part of his abilities, it was still good progress.

"Alright, the experiment is over." Kaito's hands fluttered as he changed the hand seals again, "I'll send you back to the Pure Land now. Continue your slumber, old man."

Uchiha Shō's figure gradually became transparent. Clearly, his soul was peeling off the paper doll.

At the same time, Kaito also released his control.

Uchiha Shō's face had already blurred, only his rigid speech echoed in the room: "Since you're still alive, live well."

"Ah, of course, I'll live well." Kaito's face brimmed with confidence almost to the point of arrogance, "You don't need to worry about me anymore, old man."

"Hmph, don't disturb me again, unfilial son."

"Ah, farewell, Father."

As Kaito softly bid farewell, Uchiha Shō's soul had disappeared, completely returning to the Pure Land.

"Next up, let's call upon Senior Uchiha Izuna."

The room fell silent for a few seconds, and Kaito suddenly started talking to himself.

"Array, Soldiers, Fight, Person, All, Formation, Line up, Present, In front!"

The same spiritual light surged out like a tide, illuminating the formation on the ground.

Kaito took out two paper dolls of different styles, throwing one of them first.

"Lend me your strength, Yūrei."

The paper doll exploded into powerful youkai energy in the air, turning into Yūrei's form.

"Ah la, secretly using my power again, Kaito." Yūrei's clone spoke in a somewhat ethereal voice.

"Please, Miss Yūrei, I need to summon Uchiha Izuna again."

"Hehe, I know."

Both of them waved their sleeves, Kaito throwing the other paper doll into the formation while Yūrei sprinkled some starry scale powder.

"Urgent as a decree."

As the technique completed, Uchiha Izuna appeared before Kaito again.

After opening his eyes, he first felt his own state, then frowned slightly in dissatisfaction.

"Kid, it's still not enough, at most I can exert about ten percent of my power."

"That's the case, Senior Izuna," Kaito nodded, "This technique still needs further improvement, and due to a lack of materials, this is the best we can do for now."

"However, Senior Izuna should understand, my goal is to summon your elder brother Uchiha Madara to ask him some questions, not to engage in combat."

"I understand." Uchiha Izuna shook his head, "But summoning brother like this is meaningless. Although you've told me some things, it's useless to try to persuade that stubborn brother like this."

"Even if it's from you, he wouldn't listen?" Kaito was somewhat puzzled.

"Normally, I would support whatever brother wants to do unconditionally," Uchiha Izuna spoke firmly, "But according to what you've said, you're suspecting brother has been deceived. Although I almost believe you, you can't provide any decisive evidence."

"Brother is a confident person; he wouldn't think anyone in this world could deceive him. So without evidence, he won't believe it, even if it's because of my status. What's the point of reluctantly persuading him? I wouldn't try to persuade him without having accurate information."

"Is that so?" Kaito showed understanding, "Then let's go find the evidence, and also see who this self-proclaimed Madara really is."

"I wonder if the task I gave to Itachi has been completed properly." He turned to look at Yūrei's clone, "Miss Yūrei, please sense the marker scale powder I gave earlier."

Yūrei's clone nodded and closed her eyes to sense.

After a while, she reopened her eyes and said, "Sensed it, several people's dream worlds have been marked."

"Great." Kaito revealed a satisfied smile, "Then let's take a trip to the world of dreams tonight."
