Chapter 5: Chapter 5

[Translator Note: I'll be uploading more chapter in a couple of days to stock a few, but it will be uploaded daily in P@treon, for free readers I'm sorry but had to wait a few days]

"Yōichi, I apologize for burdening you. If there's anything about ninjutsu you don't understand, feel free to come to me. My chakra nature happens to be lightning," reassured Kanbayashi as they left the Fugaku household.

Although the clan compensated Yōichi with ninjutsu training and money, the former held little use for him, while the latter was rightfully his due. Both of Yōichi's parents were ninjas, and their home undoubtedly contained numerous scrolls of ninjutsu. Yōichi was familiar with most of the basic fire release techniques.

Regarding the money, it was rightfully his due. Upgrading from a C-rank to an A-rank mission, and considering the importance of the obtained intelligence, giving him five hundred thousand ryo was not excessive.

This time, Yōichi had to make concessions for the clan. Not only did he not fight for the recognition he deserved, but he also couldn't clear his name when suspicions arose about his failure to save a teammate.

It wasn't surprising that Yōichi felt frustrated. He was unfairly labeled despite doing nothing wrong, and the clan didn't support him either.

Now that the village didn't assign Yōichi to a team, it tacitly endorsed the rumors circulating about him—things like being a "teammate jinx" or "intentionally not rescuing."

Furthermore, he couldn't take on B-rank missions. Although chūnin could undertake B-rank missions, Yōichi couldn't form a team, so he didn't qualify. He would only be able to take on solo C-rank or D-rank missions in the future.

"I don't need anything recently, Senior Kanbayashi. If there's nothing else, I'll head back," Yōichi said, wanting to return immediately. He was disappointed with the Uchiha clan, but more so, he was worried about the unintended activation of that damned power.

Gawking at men's naked bodies was sure to cause problems.

"Then go ahead, Yōichi. If you need help, you can find me at the vigilance team," Kanbayashi said before parting ways with Yōichi.

Meanwhile, after preparing lunch, Mikoto entered the quiet room. "Fugaku, lunch is ready."

Shortly after, the door opened, and Fugaku stepped out, saying, "Mikoto, if you're tired, you can rest first. No need to rush."

Mikoto hastily replied, "Fugaku, I'm fine. Just a momentary lapse."

Seeing her insistence, Fugaku stopped persuading her. As they entered the dining room together, they began to enjoy their lunch.

During the meal, Mikoto couldn't help but ask, "Fugaku, why did Yōichi come to our house earlier?"

"Because of some illogical rumors, Yōichi had to make a concession. But it's also for the benefit of the Uchiha clan to progress further in the village. However, this does indeed overlook his contributions, so I was planning to compensate him," Fugaku explained, still believing in the Third Hokage. He believed that under the leadership of the Third Hokage, the Uchiha clan might overcome its past embarrassments and integrate better into Konoha.

"I see. Fugaku, a question, does the Sharingan have the ability of clairvoyance?" Mikoto asked tentatively, wondering if her eyes had malfunctioned. It was strange that she could see Yōichi's naked body, but others couldn't. It must have been her own problem.

"Clairvoyance? The Sharingan can only perceive chakra and, by observing chakra, see the shadows of objects behind them. However, it only goes this far. In terms of clairvoyance, the Byakugan is indeed superior to the Sharingan. But overall, the Sharingan is more powerful," Fugaku explained to Mikoto, emphasizing the strength of the Sharingan.

"Then is it possible for the Sharingan to have the abilities of the Byakugan?" Mikoto began to ask, but Fugaku interrupted her, saying, "Don't believe in such illogical rumors. There were indeed rumors before that claimed the Sharingan originated from the Byakugan, but those were made up by those who admired the Byakugan. The Sharingan surpasses the Byakugan in many aspects."

"I see. I understand, Fugaku," Mikoto nodded, then lowered her head to eat. However, she still couldn't understand why she could see Yōichi's naked body. Why was it only her?

...

"Activating the lightning release cellular activation is almost achieved. The next step is to increase the flow of lightning attribute chakra to achieve the effect of lightning armor. But this will require meticulous practice," Yōichi thought to himself satisfactorily.

With the help of a transformer, he spent a week mastering the nature transformation of lightning and then spent over a week enabling himself to use the lightning release armor while activating cellular activation.

Next is to control the lightning release chakra to continuously strengthen the body, allowing the meridians, cells, muscles, and bones to withstand higher levels of lightning release chakra. This way, his body would continuously become stronger, and his speed and reflexes would also increase.

The Fourth Raikage's speed was almost unmatched in the ninja world, only slightly slower than the cheating teleportation jutsu. It relied on continuously enhancing the body's limits with lightning release chakra.

To practice this ninjutsu and to avoid activating his "clairvoyance" ability, Yōichi hardly left the clan territory during this period.

"After cellular activation, my speed has doubled. If I can enhance the flow of lightning release chakra to the extreme, my speed could triple. The focus in the future can be on taijutsu," Yōichi thought. His ninjutsu was average; his hand seals were not fast enough. At best, he could perform three hand seals per second. He had the upper hand against ordinary chūnin, but he was insufficient against jōnin, especially those specializing in ninjutsu.

In particular, those upper-tier jōnin who specialized in ninjutsu could perform five hand seals per second, which was normal.

Powerful taijutsu posed a significant threat to ninjutsu-type ninjas. The Hyūga clan became famous in the ninja world through the Byakugan and gentle fist taijutsu.

Moreover, Uchiha Yōichi vaguely remembered a renegade from the Hyūga clan who defeated the Raikage's body flicker technique with powerful taijutsu. This was enough to show the advantages of taijutsu in combat.

"With increased strength, the next step is to familiarize and control. Ninjas always increase their strength through combat," Yōichi thought, feeling like taking on missions again. He also suspected that the village elders didn't want him to form a team because they didn't want him to take on B-rank or higher missions.

Logically, the village elders had no reason to focus on him, a mere middle-ranked ninja. Moreover, the relationship between the Uchiha clan and the village wasn't so bad as to warrant such actions.

But merely based on rumors, they advised against him forming a mission team further, claiming there was no subjective bias, which Yōichi didn't believe.

"I can take on a long-term out-of-village mission and then visit the underground exchange to see. Of course, it's limited to within the borders of the Land of Fire," he thought. His strength was not weak to begin with. Now that he had learned the lightning release chakra mode cellular activation, his overall strength was considered elite among middle-ranked ninjas.

If he could develop the lightning release chakra mode into a lightning armor wrap and combine it with the Sharingan, he would be able to compete with special jōnin in taijutsu alone.

If he could unleash some abnormal abilities and encounter elite jōnin, Yōichi was confident he could kill them.

Chapter 6: Chapter 6

A new month began.

After contemplating leaving the village, Yoichi spent an additional two days familiarizing himself with the Lightning Style Chakra Mode. Then, he decided to see if the Superpower Roulette could refresh a powerful ability before his departure.

[Sneeze Transformation]: After sneezing, randomly make a person possess an animal within a ten-kilometer radius. The person who becomes the animal will hear your thoughts. Sneezing again will end the possession for the other person.

What kind of bizarre ability was this? And what did it have to do with him?

Yoichi pondered for a moment and confirmed that this was almost a prank ability unrelated to him. So, he closed the Superpower Roulette and stopped paying attention to it.

In the past year, he had drawn too many strange abilities. Yoichi had gone from expecting the Superpower Roulette to change his fate and achieve the Six Paths, to just checking it routinely.

Today, this ability was obviously for pranks. It was random, and Yoichi couldn't control it. Moreover, if he remembered correctly, he had already sneezed when he woke up in the morning.

After breakfast, Yoichi packed his ninja tools and armed himself before heading to the Hokage's office.

There were still some savings at home. Taking missions was Yoichi's way of wanting to leave the village. He was not a native Uchiha or a Leaf Shinobi, so he didn't feel much attachment here.

Moreover, despite the seemingly large size of Konoha, over sixty percent of it was inhabited by villagers and ninja clans. There were few places to visit, and staying here for a long time would suffocate him.

Arriving at the Hokage's office, Yoichi went directly to the mission desk.

Usually, the Third Hokage managed the distribution of missions. A and S-rank missions were personally assigned by the Third Hokage to the ninja. However, when the Hokage was busy, he wouldn't come to the mission desk.

"I want to take a mission, preferably a C-rank mission outside the village, like a solo mission to subdue bandits."

After speaking, Yoichi paused for a moment, then continued in a more serious tone, "It's C-rank, not fake C pretending to be A or pseudo-S. Don't mix in some enemy Jonin in the mission!"

The ninja at the mission desk recognized the ninja in front of them who had disbanded three mission teams within half a year and was known as the "cold-blooded teammate", prioritizing mission completion without caring about the lives of teammates.

"Understood."

Although the people at the mission desk were not very happy, there was indeed a mistake in the last mission. Besides, the other party was an Uchiha, and his expression wasn't very friendly, so the people at the mission desk didn't argue.

"There aren't many C-rank missions left to leave the village. There are only four. One is to escort a merchant group, which requires a team. There are also two long-term protection missions, also requiring ninja teams. The last one was just submitted by the client, a resident near the village. It is said that wild beasts trampled their fields and even broke into their houses."

The ninja at the mission desk explained that apart from skirmishes, there were hardly any missions suitable for solo individuals.

Especially for escort and protection missions, in the eyes of employers, the more ninjas, the better. They couldn't distinguish which ninja was stronger.

"Only the last one, clearing out the wild beasts, is available for you. The rest are D-rank missions, with no restrictions for Chunin. There are also some B-rank missions, but you can only take some assassination types."

Yoichi was somewhat surprised after hearing this. "I can take B-rank missions?"

Although Chunin could take B-rank missions, they were usually assigned to Chunin teams. Solo missions had a higher failure rate. If there were several failures recorded, it would damage Konoha's reputation.

"Others can't, but you, Yoichi-san, can."

After hearing the words of the mission desk, Yoichi suddenly realized that this was probably arranged internally and informed to the higher-ups.

"Help me see if there are any suitable B-rank missions."

---

Yoichi took on a C-rank mission to clear out wild beasts and a B-rank mission to eliminate a black-market organization supported by a ninja. The former was reported to the village just today when Yoichi arrived at the Hokage's office, so he probably just missed the client.

According to the investigation feedback, it was said to be a wild boar that ran out from the Forest of Death, trampling fields and crashing into a village near Konoha.

At that time, the village head was frightened and hurried to Konoha, hoping to hire ninjas to kill the beast.

The wild beasts that emerged from the Forest of Death were likely to have chakra in their bodies, but even if they did, they were still beasts without intelligence and didn't pose a threat to ninjas.

Yoichi took on this mission incidentally. Slaughtering a wild beast would earn him fifty thousand Ryo, without the need to split it with other team members. Thinking about it, it wasn't bad to do it alone.

At the gate of Konoha, Yoichi met the client who had commissioned the mission and walked with him towards the village.

The attacked village was not far from Konoha, only ten minutes away.

While on the way, Yoichi learned about the situation from the village head.

The village was attacked by a wild boar, but the tusks of that wild boar were as big as elephants, and its body was like a small hill. The village head was frightened at that time, but according to his memory, it was conservatively estimated to have a body length of four to five meters.

This size was not small even in the Forest of Death. However, in the irregular natural environment of ninja, it was considered normal. There were even bamboo trees over ten meters thick in the Land of Grass.

Tracking wild beasts was simple; unlike ninjas, they couldn't hide their tracks. The footprints they left behind when they left were clearly visible.

After observing for a while, Yoichi prepared to take action to find the beast. "Village head, wait here for news."

With that, a Body Flicker Technique, and Yoichi disappeared from the village head's sight. The Lightning Style Chakra Mode required daily stimulation with Lightning Style Chakra to stimulate and train the body, so the Body Flicker had become his frequently used technique.

"I've turned into a wild boar!?"

Waking up from a nap, Tsunade was shocked and almost lost her bearings.

She had been drinking at home last night, and today, after waking up, she found herself in a forest on the outskirts!

Moreover, her body had changed. Her vision was completely different from usual, and when she tried to speak, she made grunting noises. She couldn't even wave her hand.

As a top medical ninja, Tsunade's understanding of the human body was unparalleled in the ninja world. She quickly realized that she was no longer in a human body.

Her body was huge, her limbs were short, covered in stinking mud, and she was very hungry.

"Oink oink oink!!"

"Damn bastard, who played such a joke on me, I'll kill you when I recover!!"

After realizing that she had turned into a wild beast, Tsunade roared angrily, but her words turned into a series of grunts like a wild boar.

Finally, she reached the riverbank and discovered that she had indeed turned into a wild boar, and this place seemed to be the Forest of Death.

If it were normal times, Tsunade could leave the Forest of Death in just ten minutes. But now, in a wild boar's body, she could barely muster any chakra, couldn't climb trees or swim, and with her stomach growling, she could only move in one direction.

After breaking through the protective barrier of the Forest of Death and spending some time, Tsunade finally found a village near Konoha.

At this point, Tsunade also realized that she had gone the wrong way, but the hunger in her belly made it unbearable for her. So she broke into the village head's house and found a rice jar to eat some; eating raw food was already the limit for Tsunade. If she had to eat what wild boars usually ate, she would rather die.

After eating her fill, Tsunade retraced her steps towards Konoha. Her top priority now was to change back. In her memory, Jiraiya seemed to have used this kind of ninjutsu to turn someone into an animal before.

However, he turned people into toads, not wild boars. Tsunade wasn't very clear about it, but she didn't think it was something Jiraiya would do. If he dared to play such an outrageous joke on her, Tsunade would break him twelve more ribs.

"After going back, I'll find Jiraiya first. But it's troublesome to avoid villagers and ninjas now, and I can't speak."

As Tsunade was thinking about how to change back, her well-developed sense of danger, honed through countless battles, made her feel uneasy in an instant. So, with a kick of her hind legs, she leaped forward suddenly.

Just as Tsunade jumped out, six shurikens attacked from several directions, whooshing and piercing into the ground.

Seeing this scene from afar, Yoichi's eyes widened slightly. His shuriken throwing technique was so bad? Even a wild boar could dodge it?
