Chapter 2 - Danzō! Hiruzen Sarutobi!

She then withdrew her Kagura Mind's Eye, her mood quite pleasant.

This little guy looked rather good… and seemed to be in the same generation as Tsunade.

But matters between young people should be left to themselves. After all, forced melons are never sweet.

Uchiha Shin let out a sigh of relief and continued examining the system's functions.

On the system panel, he saw a shop, a roulette, and a mission system.

His current points were 0, so he didn't check the shop or roulette. Instead, he opened the mission panel.

Good lord—there were daily missions, weekly missions, achievements, random encounters, and favorability.

Everything was there.

There was even a "friendly" reminder at the top:

"There are no unfinished tasks, only useless people unwilling to complete them."

Uchiha Shin felt his head ache.

What was this?

This was PUA!

What was this?

This was capitalism!

Beasts, absolute beasts.

What do you mean there are no unfinished tasks, only useless people unwilling to complete them?

That's no different from saying as long as you can endure hardship, there will always be endless hardship!

Uchiha Shin sighed. Then he suddenly noticed—

Some missions had already been completed.

Achievement Mission: Awakening the Sharingan

(Congratulations, you are now a somewhat capable useless person. Keep working hard!)

Reward: 500 points

Favorability Mission: Uzumaki Mito (Acquaintance)

Reward: 50 points

Favorability Mission: Tsunade (Chance Encounter)

Reward: 10 points

Uchiha Shin let out a breath.

He could be considered somewhat wealthy now, right?

But when he opened the shop, his face turned green.

What the hell was all this?!

Sage Body: 999,999 points

Mangekyō Sharingan: 99,999 points

Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan: 999,999 points

A-rank Ninjutsu: 20,000

B-rank Ninjutsu: 5,000

C-rank Ninjutsu: 500

D-rank Ninjutsu: 50

Uchiha Shin quickly closed the shop.

He had thought he was somewhat rich.

Turns out his entire fortune could barely buy a C-rank ninjutsu!

Damn it—what use is a C-rank ninjutsu?!

As for things like the Sage Body and Mangekyō Sharingan… he was still dirt poor.

Wait—wasn't there also the roulette?

Uchiha Shin opened the roulette and looked at the rewards.

Not bad. There were eight slots in total, glowing in red, gold, purple, blue, and green.

The remaining three slots were:

"Thank you for participating"

One month's supply of soldier pills

One month's supply of water

Uchiha Shin nodded.

The rewards looked decent.

But one spin cost 168 points…

He hesitated.

A five-draw only cost 800 points, but he currently had only 560.

So he decided to save up a bit more.

After closing the system panel, he spoke in his mind:

"System, you know everything, right?"

"system notifications

The system is omniscient. Host may ask freely."

"What is Danzō doing right now?"

Uchiha Shin suddenly asked.

"system notifications

This information requires 10 points. Would the host like to view it?"

"View."

Uchiha Shin was curious.

After all, during this war, Danzō had been relatively well-behaved.

Hiruzen Sarutobi had just taken office, and Danzō had just become a Konoha advisor elder.

Even for his own interests, he had to perform well in this war.

"system notifications Playing video for the host."

Suddenly, an image appeared in Uchiha Shin's mind.

The Third Hokage had just finished a meeting and assigned the troops.

Immediately after, the handsome Danzō pushed open the door and entered.

"Hiruzen, there's a young Uchiha who has come into contact with Tsunade and Lady Mito."

"I suspect the Uchiha clan is planning a rebellion. I suggest handing this brat over to me for interrogation!"

Shimura Danzō slapped the Hokage's desk.

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned, then clasped his hands before his mouth.

"Danzō, I am already aware of this matter. Leave it alone for now."

"And the Uchiha are Konoha's Uchiha."

"If they wanted to rebel, they would have followed Madara when he left!"

"Besides, don't forget—Kagami was our comrade and an Uchiha recognized by our teacher!"

"We are about to enter war. The Uchiha are also part of the village's strength."

Danzō snorted coldly.

"Kagami may be recognized by our teacher, but don't forget the talent of the Uchiha clan."

"As long as they awaken the three-tomoe Sharingan, they can reach Jonin-level strength."

"Aren't you worried?"

A trace of sinister intent flashed in his eyes.

"Enough!"

"Danzō!"

"I am the Hokage!"

"Put away your schemes!"

"For now, the Uchiha are not to be touched!"

The Third Hokage slammed the table.

Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado trembled at the side.

At this time, Hiruzen Sarutobi was in his prime.

Having just become Hokage, he carried a trace of dominance.

"Hiruzen, you—!"

Shimura Danzō was stunned.

He hadn't expected his old friend—

To suppress him using the authority of the Hokage. This was the first time!

All for a group of "inherently evil" Uchiha brats!

"Fine, Hiruzen—you'll regret this!"

With that, Danzō left the Hokage's office, smashing the door with his right hand.

Bang!

He made no effort to conceal his anger.

Hiruzen Sarutobi watched Danzō's departing figure and fell into thought.

Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado tried to calm him down.

Danzō had only acted on impulse.

At this time, Hiruzen Sarutobi was not the man he would become in old age.

He had strong convictions—whoever dared to invade would be met with force.

He would not easily be swayed by Danzō's manipulation.

Hiruzen picked up his pipe and lit it.

The meeting room filled with smoke.

No one knew what he was thinking.

Although Koharu disliked the smell, she didn't dare say anything.

She simply stood by, waiting for Hiruzen's orders.

Homura continued to console him.

The video ended here.

Uchiha Shin nodded.

It seemed that at this time, Hiruzen Sarutobi was still a "hero of shinobi," not a "bear of shinobi."

At that moment, the door suddenly opened.

The one who entered—

Was Tsunade.

Her long ponytail and already well-developed figure radiated charm at all times.

Uchiha Shin couldn't help but glance at her.

Tsunade was momentarily stunned, then remembered he was still here.

A smile appeared on her face.

"Uchiha Shin-kun, you're awake. How are you feeling? Better?"

She asked naturally, removing her shinobi armor.

Underneath, she wore a black tight-fitting outfit that perfectly outlined her figure.

Tsunade didn't notice—

Just how much impact her casual action had on Uchiha Shin.

He quickly turned his head away, his face flushing red.

Seeing this, Tsunade looked down at her outfit and couldn't help but blush.

But noticing his reaction—

For some reason, she suddenly wasn't nervous anymore.

Instead, her eyes turned mischievous.

"Uchiha Shin-kun, what's wrong? Why is your face so red…?"

Tsunade's playful side emerged…
