86.73% Naruto: An Uchiha With A Superpower Roulette / Chapter 327: Chapter 327

Chapter 327: Chapter 327

The testing grounds were completely destroyed by a single punch. Moriki's power left everyone in shock.

Everyone present knew Moriki—a researcher skilled in medical techniques but lacking the talent of a ninja. He couldn't even use chakra.

However, after consuming the Dragon Power Pill, the strength he exhibited left even Sakura utterly stunned, her mouth agape in disbelief.

The only one seemingly unaffected by Moriki's display of strength was Ino. She glanced down, realizing her waist was being held by an arm, which immediately made her blush. To her dismay, the arm belonged to the person she least liked—the local pharmacist.

Before Ino could say anything, the arm was quickly withdrawn. Once she steadied herself, she glanced at Yoichi with a mix of embarrassment and excitement.

But before she could speak, Yoichi beat her to it. "Out of everyone here, you're the only one who fell. Are you sure you're a ninja? You can't even stand as well as the civilians."

"You… You!"

Ino, now both ashamed and angry, wanted to retort but was interrupted by Sakura's shout.

"Moriki-kun, are you okay?"

"I'm fine! I feel amazing!"

Moriki waved his hand nervously and added, "I think I didn't use my full strength earlier. Should I punch again?"

"No, no need! That punch was enough!"

Sakura quickly stopped him and gestured to the Konoha Hospital staff to approach and examine Moriki. They began running additional tests to measure his increased strength, durability, and the pill's overall effects, including its duration.

Yoichi remained indifferent as Sakura and her team conducted their experiments. After all, the Dragon Power Pill could only be refined by him.

Ino, meanwhile, edged closer. While she wasn't a medical ninja, her curiosity about the mysterious pill and Yoichi's secrets grew.

"Hey, who are you really? How did you create such a powerful secret pill?" Ino whispered, her tone cautious. "If you're a spy from another village, I suggest you abandon any thoughts of harming Konoha. We won't let you get away with it!"

Yoichi shot her a glance, shook his head, and said, "Ungrateful."

He then stepped away, his demeanor making it clear he wasn't interested in talking.

That single word and his dismissive attitude erased any lingering gratitude Ino felt. She clenched her fists behind her back, wishing she could punch his annoyingly handsome face.

After a while, Sakura completed the tests. She even tested her own strength against Moriki, resulting in her being sent flying.

Moriki rushed to check on her, but Sakura assured him she wasn't hurt—it was simply a matter of being overpowered.

This outcome left everyone, including Ino, in disbelief. Sakura, renowned for her monstrous strength as the inheritor of Tsunade's power, had been bested by someone who wasn't even a ninja, all thanks to the pill.

If a ninja consumed this secret pill, how much stronger would they become?

An hour later, the effects of the Dragon Power Pill wore off. Moriki's swollen physique gradually returned to normal, leaving him feeling weak and ravenously hungry.

Yoichi approached and advised, "Let him eat plenty and rest. He'll be fine after that."

The Dragon Power Pill's effectiveness seemed promising. Moriki, being an ordinary person, couldn't precisely control his body, resulting in much of the pill's power going to waste. If given to a taijutsu expert, the results could be far greater.

Following Yoichi's advice, Sakura provided Moriki with food and monitored his recovery. Apart from fatigue, he showed no other issues.

Meanwhile, the effects of the other three types of secret pills were tested, each aligning perfectly with Yoichi's claims. The researchers at Konoha Hospital were ecstatic, their eyes gleaming with excitement.

The Dragon Power Pill, however, was particularly astonishing. It enabled an ordinary person to match a jonin in combat—a feat unheard of.

Yoichi, seeing the results, said, "Since the tests are done, I'll be heading back."

"Wait!"

Sakura stopped him, her tone calmer as she approached. "About your shop, I'd like to discuss something on behalf of Konoha."

"Oh? What about it?"

"Regarding the sale of these secret pills, will you sell them to anyone who meets your conditions?"

Yoichi nodded. "Of course. I run a business to trade items. Why wouldn't I sell to anyone who comes to my shop?"

Sakura sighed inwardly. She expected this answer but still tried to persuade him. "If that's the case, there's a risk that bad people could purchase these pills and use them to harm others."

"Hold on," Yoichi interrupted, raising his hand. "Before we get into that, let me ask you something. Do these bad people eat food or use weapons while committing their crimes?"

"Uh… Yes?"

"Then maybe you should shut down all the restaurants and weapon shops first. That way, they won't have the strength or tools to cause harm."

Yoichi chuckled and added, "The Dragon Power Pill is a Level 5 secret pill. I'll finalize its price tomorrow. If you're interested, you're welcome to discuss a trade. But I warn you, a Level 5 pill isn't easy to obtain."

Without waiting for Sakura's reply, Yoichi turned and left. He had achieved his goal, and the Dragon Power Pill had proven its value.

Sakura, still processing his words, was approached by Ino.

"That guy is so infuriating. He's got a way of saying things that really gets under your skin. Maybe we should ask Naruto about this."

Ino, too, was astonished by the pill's effects. Its power was undeniable and potentially dangerous if misused.

"But Sakura, don't worry too much. Did you hear him? Even the Level 1 and 2 pills are expensive. This Level 5 pill must be beyond what even Konoha can afford, let alone others."

Sakura nodded. "Still, his background is suspicious. Not even Lady Tsunade could create such powerful pills. Who exactly is this guy?"

"I'll write to my mentor and ask. But for now, I need to inform Naruto. If the effects are as real as they seem, the village could benefit from purchasing some."

Ino agreed and headed home, while Sakura made her way to the Hokage's office.

After explaining everything to Naruto and Shikamaru, both were left stunned.

"So, you're saying Moriki punched you away after taking the pill?" Naruto asked, his disbelief evident.

"Well, not exactly… But yes, think of it that way," Sakura replied, admitting the Dragon Power Pill's overwhelming power.

"This pill is incredibly strong. If a ninja used it, their strength would skyrocket. Its side effects are negligible, making it nearly risk-free. However, the price is so steep that even we might struggle to afford it."

Shikamaru rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "It's troublesome. If bad actors get their hands on these pills, it could be catastrophic. But this guy… Where is he from?"

Sakura shook her head. "I don't know, but I plan to write to sensei and see if she knows anything."

Naruto nodded. "Good idea. Let Sai investigate him in the meantime. He doesn't seem to belong to any of the five great nations, but we can't take any chances."

Chapter 328: Chapter 328

"Understood," Sai said after listening to Naruto and Shikamaru. He promptly left the Hokage's office.

Heading to the ANBU headquarters, Sai issued the orders, and the ANBU operatives soon returned with intelligence. Following the Five Great Nations' peace conference, the ANBU's responsibilities had been significantly reduced, leaving them primarily with intelligence gathering.

Reviewing the report, Sai found it only detailed Yoichi's activities since his arrival in Konoha, with no information about his past.

"Is there nothing about before he came to the village?" Sai asked.

"The timeframe was too short, and this person isn't flagged. We need more time to gather the earlier data."

"Is he a ninja?" Sai pressed.

"That's unclear. We've never seen him use ninjutsu, but considering he can make secret pills useful to ninjas, he might be one," replied an ANBU operative.

"Don't assume. Verify. Involve the Hyūga clan for this investigation," Sai instructed, suddenly recalling someone. "I'll handle this for now. Focus on gathering information about him before he arrived in Konoha."

"Understood," the ANBU replied before departing to continue their investigation.

Sai then prepared a case of money. Naruto and Shikamaru had decided to purchase some of Yoichi's secret pills, and Sai could use the opportunity to enlist a Hyūga clan member to assist him.

"Hanabi, I'll leave this task to you."

After finding Hyūga Hanabi, Sai explained his request.

"No problem at all. You just need me to use my Byakugan to check if he's a ninja, right? Easy," Hanabi replied nonchalantly, waving her hand. "But are the secret pills from this shop really that impressive? Enough to warrant your attention?"

"According to Sakura's judgment, the effects are as claimed. They're rare even by ninja world standards," Sai explained. "That's precisely why we're being cautious."

Hanabi nodded. "If Sakura-senpai believes in them, they're probably legitimate. In that case, I might buy some for emergencies too."

"They're not cheap," Sai warned, but then stopped himself. Hanabi was the Hyūga heir, so the price likely wouldn't be an issue for her.

"Let's go. Naruto's already decided to purchase some. You can buy yours while we're there," Sai suggested.

"Alright, let's head out!"

As they approached Yoichi's shop, Hanabi suddenly stopped Sai.

"Wait a moment. Let me use my Byakugan to see what he's doing and check if the shopkeeper has chakra."

Though chakra needs to be refined, those who frequently use it often have residual chakra within their bodies due to muscle memory and habitual refinement.

"Byakugan!"

Veins bulged at the sides of Hanabi's eyes as she activated her Byakugan, peering into the shop's interior.

Inside, she saw a pill furnace, golden flames, and Uchiha Yoichi skillfully manipulating the fire to refine medicinal materials.

"This guy's refining medicine with fire? He must be a ninja… Wait, he has no chakra. How is he controlling the flames?"

Hanabi's astonishment grew as she observed Yoichi's lack of chakra flow.

"What's going on?" Sai asked.

Hanabi explained, "He's manually creating flames and using a black container-like tool to refine medicine, but he has no chakra flow. None at all."

"No chakra flow? Could he be using some secret technique to block it?" Sai speculated.

"Impossible. My Byakugan can see through his internal organs, even his… hair and…" Hanabi trailed off, her face reddening as she widened her eyes in disbelief.

"Why is there a dragon…?"

"What?" Sai asked, puzzled.

"N-Nothing! Anyway, my Byakugan doesn't lie. He truly has no chakra flow. As for the flames, it must be some kind of secret technique," Hanabi said, hastily retracting her Byakugan.

"A secret technique that doesn't rely on chakra? That's new to me. Well, let's just buy the pills for now," Sai said, heading toward the shop.

A soft chime rang as they entered the shop. After about five minutes, Yoichi descended from the second floor. His striking appearance caught Hanabi's eye, though her thoughts wandered to the… peculiar sight her Byakugan had revealed earlier.

"Why is it so… different from the illustrations in novels?" she wondered.

"Are you here to trade ingredients or purchase secret pills?" Yoichi asked, his tone neutral. Though their faces seemed familiar, he didn't react overtly.

Sai placed the case of money on the counter. "We're here to purchase secret pills. I'd like to see the list first."

"Here it is. But money can only buy Level 1 and Level 2 pills," Yoichi replied, handing over the catalog.

Sai flipped through the list. It was only a few pages long, with less than twenty items. However, each pill had impressive effects, surpassing most non-clan-based secret medicines in the ninja world.

The prices, though, were steep, with the cheapest pill costing 300,000 ryō.

After reviewing the catalog, Sai closed it and said, "I'll take ten Recovery Pills, ten Power Pills, and ten Healing Pills."

Hanabi chimed in, "I'll have the same."

"That'll be 16 million ryō per order, totaling 32 million ryō for both of you. Are you paying together or separately?" Yoichi asked.

"Separately," Sai replied.

After Yoichi placed their requested pills on the counter, Sai quickly paid without hesitation.

When it was Hanabi's turn, she smiled at Yoichi and asked, "Can I pay after I return home and send someone with the money?"

Yoichi wordlessly retrieved half of the pills from the counter and said flatly, "No credit allowed."

"You—!"

Hanabi's smile faltered as she fumed internally. She turned to Sai and said, "Can you deliver a message to my family for me?"

"Understood," Sai replied before leaving with his purchase.

Now alone with Yoichi, Hanabi leaned casually on the counter and asked, "Are all these pills made by you personally?"

"Yes."

"That's amazing. Are you an apothecary?"

"Yes."

"Wow… What kind of rare ingredients are needed to trade for higher-level pills?"

"Things like this," Yoichi replied, showing her a 200-year-old ginseng root and a natural stone about the size of a fist.

As a member of a prominent clan, Hanabi quickly recognized the ginseng's immense value—something money couldn't easily buy.

Hanabi sighed inwardly. She had hoped to trade for higher-level pills, but it seemed nearly impossible.

"Do only these items qualify for trades?"

"Not necessarily. Other valuable and rare items might work. If you're unsure, bring them here, and I'll assess them," Yoichi said, curious about what unique items this world might offer.

Hanabi's curiosity got the better of her, and she asked, "What exactly do you do?"

"You wouldn't understand even if I told you," Yoichi replied, pausing briefly before adding, "Have you heard of an onmyōji?"

...

Meanwhile, elsewhere…

"Victor!"

A ripple distorted the space, and a masked figure appeared, seating himself casually before Victor.

Victor, a skilled ninja proficient in multiple elemental jutsu, immediately sensed the use of space-time ninjutsu. He discreetly gathered chakra and asked warily, "Who are you, and what do you want?"

"Relax. I'm here to help you. Our cooperation will benefit us both," the masked figure said nonchalantly, lounging on Victor's sofa. "Have you heard about the Divine Tree yet?"

Victor's heart sank. This was classified information known only to the organization's inner circle.

"You—"

"It seems you have. Why not cultivate your own Divine Tree?" the masked figure suggested. "Do you really think anyone would willingly share its power? If it were me, I wouldn't. Right now, the tree is entirely under your leader's control. When the time comes, you'll be lucky to survive. Why not secure your own power instead of relying on empty promises?"

Victor's expression shifted several times. The masked figure's words struck a chord, echoing his own unspoken doubts.
