"Alright…"
Seeing Ren's monstrous level of comprehension, Nobuhiko finally nodded.
"I'll allow it—but don't overreach. Know your limits. Got it?"
"Got it!"
Ren grinned and nodded quickly.
"Relax, Dad. I won't get reckless."
"Fine, fine…"
Nobuhiko sighed and added:
"I'll let Elder Zen know again. If you need anything, go to him—he knows this archive better than anyone."
"Also, your mother is actually a medical-nin. There are quite a few medical scrolls at home. You can ask her for guidance too."
"That's it for now. I've got things to do—focus on your studies."
With that, Nobuhiko walked over to notify Uchiha Zen and then took his leave.
Elder Zen, the white-haired man guarding the clan archive, watched the young son of the clan head with growing curiosity.
He didn't fully understand why the patriarch would grant this kid such broad access—especially to so many topics—but he didn't question it.
His guess? The boy was probably a genius.
Ren didn't care what others thought.
Over the next half-month, his routine became highly disciplined.
Morning: Taijutsu body conditioning.
One hour: Chakra refinement training.
Daytime: Studying chakra theory, taijutsu, medical techniques in the clan archive.
Evening: Two more hours of chakra refinement.
By the end of the half-month, he had finished every scroll in the archive related to chakra, taijutsu, Sharingan, and medical ninjutsu.
He had also spent considerable time questioning his mother about medical knowledge.
Combining this with his past-life knowledge of Chinese medicine and human biology, Ren achieved a true fusion of understanding—his medical proficiency soared.
Returning to his room, he activated his Wish Talent.
[I wish to learn the optimal chakra refinement method best suited for me.]
Cost: 2 wish points for a 5-minute maximum-intellect enlightenment period.
"Oh? Only 2 points this time? That's 3 less than last time. Nice!"
It was a good trade—even if he'd spent 1 extra wish earlier, the reduced cost made it worthwhile.
Without hesitation, he continued:
[I wish to consume 2 wish points to maximize my intellect for 5 minutes.]
The next moment, his brain surged with power—as if his mind had unlocked a new level of clarity.
Ren steadied his thoughts, quickly revisiting everything he knew about chakra and human anatomy.
He entered a state of pure enlightenment.
With the Uchiha clan's refinement technique as his foundation, he began developing a personalized, perfect chakra refinement method.
As he created it, he actively tested its internal circulation in his body.
And just like that, five minutes flew by.
As the enlightenment state faded, Ren examined the results.
"My efficiency has increased fivefold."
"And I can now convert over 50% more physical and mental energy into chakra."
That was a huge boost.
"At this rate, I'll be able to unlock the energy pathways in every cell of my body within half a month."
"That's way faster than the three months it would've taken before."
Ren ran the technique once more and couldn't help but smile.
Sharpening the axe really does save time.
He wasn't done.
[I wish to learn the best possible method to awaken the Sharingan, personalized for me.]
Option 2: Consume 7 wish points to maximize intellect for 5 minutes. Use Uchiha meditation as a base, combine it with prior-life techniques, visualization, and all known Sharingan knowledge to 100% create the ideal awakening method.
"Only 7 points? That's 3 less than before. Not bad."
[I wish to learn the perfect training method for the three-tomoe Sharingan.]
Option 1: 87 wish points for a 5-minute enlightenment based on memory + prior-life meditation techniques to develop the perfect method.
Next:
[I wish to develop a chakra cultivation method that allows for permanent storage, purification, and advancement of chakra—a complete chakra training system.]
Option 1: 512 wish points for a 5-minute max-intellect enlightenment to create the "Chakra Circulation Method" that expands meridians and opens the middle dantian as a chakra reserve.
"Whoa! That's a big drop."
"And the three techniques together cost only 606 points total."
"Even after that, I'll still have 859 wish points left."
"What if I invest all of those into increasing my intelligence?"
"Would that further reduce the cost of each technique?"
Without hesitating, Ren began again:
[I wish to consume 800 wish points to permanently maximize my intellect aptitude.]
His stat updated:
[Intellect: Kage Level – 1367/10,000]
Ren deliberately saved 59 wish points as emergency reserves.
He immediately felt the result—a cool energy flooded his mind, and his thinking speed, memory, and comprehension all surged.
"This is way more than just a few times better than before."
Then he rechecked the previous three wish costs:
Sharingan Awakening: 4 points
Three-Tomoe Training: 72 points
Chakra System: 435 points
All had decreased significantly.
Without hesitation, he proceeded:
[I wish to consume 4 wish points to maximize my intellect for 5 minutes.]
"Whooooom—!"
Back into enlightenment.
Ren immediately recalled every bit of knowledge on the Sharingan and meditation and began his synthesis.
Within five minutes, he created a perfect meditation-based Sharingan awakening method.
Even better: with time left to spare, he designed a refined, secondary version of the method for use by other Uchiha.
Although not as powerful as the one tailored for himself, the secondary method still helped Uchiha clan members awaken their Sharingan organically through training, avoiding emotional trauma.
Both methods produced Sharingan that were balanced and stable, free from the usual emotional volatility that led to obsession or breakdown.
The process also strengthened the user's spirit and activated their Uchiha bloodline more deeply.
A complete win.
