"No need to be so formal. We are brothers, after all," Shisui said.

"Can I ask how you're my brother, if you don't mind?" Kaida asked Shisui.

"Of course, you can. My mother and yours were cousins and best friends. She was one of the few people who supported your mother during her marriage to your father," Shisui explained.

"Oh," Kaida said, then fell silent for a moment, deep in thought.

'Shisui is my brother now. What is this, some kind of cheat greater than the Sharingan? As I remember, Shisui was the strongest Uchiha of the younger generation, even ahead of Itachi. He wasn't affected by the Uchiha's curse of hatred. But he died trying to prevent the Uchiha massacre, killed by none other than Danzo for his eyes. Should I try to save him? Even though he was my favorite character, is it worth it to change the future? If I do, my trump card—knowledge of future events—will be completely lost.'

Kaida had a serious look on his face while thinking this, and Shisui mistook it as sadness from remembering his parents.

"Don't worry, little bro. You still have me as your family. Whenever you have any problems, just come and find me. Your brother is super strong, you know!" Shisui said with a smile, flexing his biceps.

Listening to him, Kaida smiled and decided on his future actions but didn't say anything other than, "Yes, Brother," before leaving.

Kaida returned to the training ground. Since he hadn't dispersed his clones, all 50 of them were still practicing different jutsus. He continued his training, creating more clones during his breaks.

For three days straight, Kaida kept his Sharingan activated. This slowed down his training slightly since he had to continuously invest chakra into the Sharingan. However, after keeping it active for 72 hours straight, he could feel he was very close to upgrading his Sharingan.

Any normal Uchiha wouldn't have been able to keep their eyes active for so long like Kaida did, and might have even bled from their eyes. But due to his Senju bloodline, Kaida's body was stronger than most ninjas and able to handle the load of the Sharingan.

When the time was almost up, Kaida sent some of his clones back to his house to cook food and clean.

"Hey guys, the time is almost up. Let's go back," Kaida said.

"Okay, just give me 10 minutes," Ryota said as he stopped rotating.

"This chakra flow is too difficult. The most I can maintain my chakra in the blade is for 1 hour, and that's with the help of a soldier pill. Without it, my chakra would be exhausted within 30 minutes or less," Yomi said.

"Yomi, can you show me how you're practicing the chakra flow?"

Yomi nodded and flowed her chakra into the sword. The sword started releasing lightning, and a yellow aura surrounded it in a 5 cm radius.

"You're using too much chakra for this. With just 50% of that amount, you can coat your sword. Try to reduce the chakra usage next time."

While Kaida and Yomi were discussing this, Ryota approached Kaida.

"It's alright, Sensei. Let's go; we've completed our training for today. By the way, who was that ninja who came to meet you during training?"

"Some Uchiha clan elder wanted to meet me. It was some bullshit about it being my responsibility to serve the clan and all. Of course, I denied it. I also met with Shisui Uchiha. He's my cousin brother and said I can ask him for any help," Kaida said.
