Chapter 76: Unexpected Changes

At this moment, Ryujiro followed Orochimaru into a hidden room.

Entering the room, various preserved human organs and special limbs were displayed before them.

This was Orochimaru's personal laboratory.

And the most striking aspect of the laboratory was the several pairs of crimson eyes.

Initially, during the Uchiha clan massacre, Danzo had collected many pairs of eyes, and without Orochimaru's assistance, Danzo would never have been able to possess an arm full of terrifying Sharingan.

As someone who coveted the Sharingan's power the most, how could Orochimaru not keep a few pairs of eyes for himself?

However, transplanting the Sharingan was not so simple.

Unless the recipient's body was compatible with the Sharingan, the body and eyes would reject each other and not integrate well.

Kakashi was actually an example of this.

Without the Sharingan, Kakashi might have gone further. The Chakra consumption due to the Sharingan was also a considerable burden for him.

"I didn't expect you to be so interested in the power of the Sharingan," Orochimaru said, astonished.

Ryujiro looked at those pairs of crimson eyes, a cold smile playing on his lips.

Interested in the Sharingan?

No.

The only thing that could truly interest him was the Rinnegan. 

Even if the Sharingan evolved into the Mangekyo Sharingan, it couldn't be used frequently. Only the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan could provide the user with true power.

Except for Ryujiro and Orochimaru, no one else knew about this laboratory. Even Ryujiro had only casually inquired about it before.

Unexpectedly, Orochimaru had truly hidden so many Sharingan. No wonder the subsequent puppets of the Uchiha clan, like Shin, had so many Sharingan.

Ryujiro had no intention of transplanting the Sharingan. He only wanted to test whether the Hogyoku could understand the secrets of the Sharingan.

Suddenly, there appeared in Ryujiro's hand a dazzling object as brilliant as a gemstone.

The shining black light made Orochimaru's expression change, as if his soul was trembling.

Such a thing was definitely not ordinary.

Orochimaru stared at the orb in Ryujiro's hand, his mouth dry, and asked, "Ryujiro, what is that in your hand?"

"Hogyoku; a thing that is capable of manifesting desires."

Indeed, the Hogyoku could manifest desires, enchant hearts. Even though this wasn't the first time Ryujiro held the Hogyoku, its power still intoxicated him.

Hogyoku?

Orochimaru didn't know what the Hogyoku was, but his intuition told him that this spherical gem could peer into another, extraordinary world.

In the moment due to Hogyoku's brilliance, the Sharingan preserved in the container began to rotate strangely.

Seeing this scene, Orochimaru widened his eyes in disbelief.

Because the Sharingan, which was placed in the container like a windmill, began to rotate eerily.

In an instant, the Sharingan in the container changed into a Mangekyo Sharingan.

Orochimaru's eyes widened suddenly, his breathing becoming rapid.

The evolution of the Sharingan should be stimulated by the emotions of the individual, but the Sharingan in the container was just a normal Sharingan.

The orb actually contained such magical power.

The development of events exceeded Ryujiro's expectations. 

It wasn't just Ryujiro who was evolving; it seemed that the Hogyoku itself was absorbing various energies and changing.

From a single Mangekyo Sharingan to a double Mangekyo Sharingan, Orochimaru was completely stunned by the appearance of the third Mangekyo Sharingan.

Such power surpassed his understanding.

It continued to rotate, and Orochimaru couldn't help but gulp, unable to suppress the crazy ideas swirling in his mind.

Could it be?

The Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, the ultimate power of the Uchiha clan, was the next evolution.

With a "bang" sound...

The container exploded instantly, and as the Sharingan in the container burst open, the splashing eyeballs were about to fall on Ryujiro, but were abruptly bounced away by a spiritual pressure.

Orochimaru was somewhat disappointed to see this.

Was obtaining the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan really impossible?

It seemed that he had thought too much. 

However, after witnessing Ryujiro's miraculous methods, he became more convinced that Ryujiro was the only one who could lead to the path of immortality.

And his hope of obtaining perfect immortality also rested on Ryujiro.

The moment the Hogyoku disappeared, Ryujiro couldn't help but furrow his brow, feeling an unbearable itch in his eyes.

Ryujiro couldn't help but rub his eyes. When Orochimaru looked at Ryujiro's strange eyes and tremblingly pointed at him, "Ryujiro! Your eyes!"

My eyes?

Ryujiro's heart skipped a beat.

He quickly walked to a mirror in the laboratory and looked at his own eyes, his breath involuntarily halting at the sight of his distinct crimson eyes.

How could this be possible!

Sharingan!

The crimson eyes with black tomoe were undoubtedly Sharingan, although they were just regular Mangekyo Sharingan.

But Ryujiro wasn't an Uchiha, and these eyes weren't transplanted by him. They were completely his own eyes that had undergone a mutation to become Sharingan.

Could it be!

Had the Hogyoku already understood the secrets of the Sharingan?

"The Sharingan... Ryujiro, your eyes have actually transformed into Sharingan."

"It's simply unbelievable."

Orochimaru stared at Ryujiro with wide eyes, shocked.

Ryujiro was somewhat puzzled, but he quickly regained his composure from the shock.

Regardless, this was a good thing for Ryujiro. Only with the Sharingan could he possibly unlock the Rinnegan.

The ability of the Rinnegan was indeed something Ryujiro coveted.

The Hogyoku could materialize inner desires. Simply put, the Hogyoku was like what we call a wishing stone.

Of course, the Hogyoku wouldn't blindly experiment with your wishes. It would only help guide you towards that direction if you had potential and talent in that aspect.

What Ryujiro hoped for was to dominate everything with his own power, with no one threatening him. 

After all, the enemies he would face in the future were Kaguya and, besides Kaguya, the other Otsutsuki clan members, whose whereabouts were currently unknown.

The only desire in Ryujiro's heart was to become stronger.

Moreover, with the potential Ryujiro possessed from the system, the Hogyoku would guide him in which direction to evolve. Even Ryujiro himself wasn't sure.

Ryujiro also found that he could switch back to his normal eyes when he didn't need to use the Sharingan.

This was really beneficial for him caused it won't create anyother problems for him and also, he liked his dark green eyes more.

The ability of the Sharingan... Indeed, the world seen through his eyes had become somewhat different.
