Naruto: An Uchiha With A Superpower Roulette

"When can I leave?" Uchiha Yōichi inquired.

"Wait for the ANBU investigation," came the response.

"Don't the ANBU usually question the individuals involved during investigations?" Yōichi persisted.

"Wait for the ANBU investigation!" The masked ANBU remained tight-lipped thereafter, ignoring any further inquiries from Yōichi.

Observing this, Yōichi reluctantly gave up. Now, he could only wait for the ANBU to release him or for his clan to intervene.

Considering Uchiha Fugaku's somewhat meek demeanor, he would likely negotiate with the Konoha higher-ups first before awaiting the ANBU's findings.

Pondering this, Yōichi couldn't help but sigh inwardly. The heavy casualties among his teammates were not his fault; it was due to Konoha's inadequate intelligence. It was already commendable that he managed to bring back one teammate from a C-rank mission where an Jounin, a Chunin, and two Genin appeared.

Yōichi shouldn't have been seized upon Konoha's intelligence failure. 

"When will the Uchiha clan become more assertive!"

Yōichi is a transmigrator, thirteen years old this year, who transmigrated to the ninja world a year ago.

The original body possessed significant talents, graduating at ten and becoming a Chunin two years later, even awakening the Sharingan, albeit with only one tomoe. However, after the transmigration, things became somewhat awkward. Although he inherited memories, his combat experience was essentially like a mental replay of movies.

Immediately after transmigrating, Yōichi decisively requested a six-month leave from the clan to hone his strength before taking on any missions.

He knew how to refine chakra, perform hand seals for ninjutsu, and even use the Sharingan. He just needed to convert these into his true strength. So, Yōichi spent six months practicing within the clan.

During this half-year, he made considerable progress, becoming proficient in ninjutsu and chakra control according to his memories, inheriting all the abilities of the original body.

And he also endured many "cheats"!

Speaking of Yōichi's cheat, it's the Superpower Roulette, which highlights "infinite variations"! Every month, it randomly refreshes a superpower, some of which are unbelievably strong, while others are so useless that not even a dog would bother.

For example, in this mission, he, a regular Chunin, along with three Genin, managed to survive and defeated the enemies, all thanks to the blessing of today's superpower.

[Catch the Blade Barehanded]: When you swing your blade, your primary target will unconditionally kneel and grab the blade with both hands. About when the enemy lets go depends on when you draw your blade, but drawing the blade will deplete all your stamina.

It was this move that Yōichi used to coordinate with a Genin to kill the missing-nin Chunin.

In fact, there was another time when his team was almost wiped out. At that time, their team was on a border patrol mission and happened to encounter two elite teams of Cloud ninja trespassing.

If it hadn't been for his superpower being just right at the time, Yōichi, who had only been in the ninja world for six months, would have been on his way to the afterlife.

[Turn Enemies into Friends], instantly raises the goodwill of someone who harbors enmity towards you to 99, but you must flatter and compliment them for three hours, otherwise, the goodwill will drop to -99.

If it weren't for this skill, Yōichi would have died with his teammates.

Fortunately, after activating this superpower, Yōichi successfully befriended the two elite teams of Cloud ninja, mingled with them for a few hours, not only getting clear information about their mission but also managing to lure one of the team leaders, passing by a nearby town during their mission, to reveal the training method for the Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

Another time, during a mission, there were no fatalities, but the team of four ended up in a collective brawl. Except for Yōichi, the other three all ended up with broken legs and arms. After the three team members recovered from their injuries, the team mysteriously disbanded.

Having disbanded three teams in half a year, when Yōichi returned to the village this time, he was brought in for investigation by the ANBU.

But it was more like confinement, Yōichi felt, as he had been locked up for four or five hours already. Apart from two rice balls and a cup of water given halfway through, Yōichi hadn't eaten anything else. And he had just experienced a "battle" before coming back.

A lot of chakra was consumed, and he needed a good meal to recover at least.

Yōichi had been asleep in the confinement room for he didn't know how long when he heard a knock on the door by the ANBU.

"Uchiha Yōichi, you can come out now."

After the masked ANBU said this, they directly opened the door of the confinement room.

"You guys are really efficient. I thought I would have to stay here for a month, but I didn't expect to come out in just a few hundred minutes."

Yōichi couldn't help but sneer, but the masked ANBU didn't respond.

Soon, after leaving the confinement room, Uchiha Yōichi saw Uchiha Kanbayashi outside, the captain of the security team and also a famous ANBU of the Uchiha clan.

"Yōichi, let's go back."

"Thank you for picking me up, senior Kanbayashi."

Yōichi said, then glanced at the sky. It was already pitch black; he had been confined for at least six or seven hours.

"Senior Kanbayashi, what about the mission this time? When the ANBU released me just now, they didn't tell me the outcome."

Uchiha Kanbayashi didn't immediately answer when he heard this. He led Yōichi for a distance, away from the ninja building, before speaking to him, "There's no outcome yet, and the higher-ups haven't reached a consensus. But someone has suggested subjecting you to a brain scan interrogation, although the clan leader hasn't agreed."

"This mission is very suspicious. A Jounin and a Chunin appearing in a C-rank mission is quite unusual. The mission office also refuses to admit that there was an unexpected situation with the mission intel. They're using your past accomplishments to justify it, saying you brought back the head of that Jounin, but after the investigation, it was confirmed to be a coincidence."

"That team of Iwa ninja was probably trying to gather information on the capital city, and it just happened to be disrupted by you. That's also why the clan leader is against probing your brain."

"So, I'm still a hero. But what's going on with the higher-ups in Konoha?"

Yōichi, despite his good temper, almost cursed the clan genealogy. Then he continued, "I risked my life to bring back intelligence for Konoha, and now they want to probe my brain? Senior Kanbayashi, don't you find it unreasonable? I'm the hero who killed an Iwa ninja jonin."

And the unexpected situation with the mission office is too normal. Kakashi took Naruto on their first C-rank mission, and it was upgraded to A-rank or even S-rank. If it weren't for Naruto's kind heart, Kakashi's team would have lost at least two orphans.

"It's indeed unreasonable. The clan members of the security team were very angry when they heard this news. But the clan leader has just taken office, so you have to understand him a bit."

Uchiha Kanbayashi sighed and said that the clan leader wants to further develop the Uchiha clan through his own methods, so as clan members, they can only support him.

"But, Yōichi, how did you kill that Iwa ninja?"
