Sunset twilight.
Land of Fire, Konoha Hidden Village, Uchiha Clan Residence.
"Boss, give me a bento."
Kin wore pure black short sleeves and shorts, with a flame fan on his back indicating his Uchiha identity.
He was drooling over the bento on the counter.
However, it wouldn't matter even if he wasn't wearing clothes.
In general, no villagers would dare to enter the Uchiha clan grounds.
"Uchiha Kin, you disgrace of the Uchiha Clan!!"
An angry reprimand made Kin, who was picking a bento, look up.
It was not the shop owner uncle who came out of the shop, but a small boy.
The son of the shop owner, named Uchiha Nobi.
"Forget it."
Uchiha Kin shook his head, deciding not to buy a bento. There were still some ingredients at home, so he would just make something.
Ignoring him completely, Kin looked at Nobi, who then mocked him.
"Don't think that pretending not to hear will get you out of this. You failed your Ninja exam again, didn't you?"
Kin unexpectedly grinned at him, raised his thumb, and proudly said,
"You guessed it right!"
Nobi's anger surged. How could someone be so shameless?
When had the Uchiha Clan ever had a member who couldn't even pass the Ninja exam?
"You bastard, do you have any dignity as a member of the Uchiha Clan?"
"Hold on, you better look behind you."
Kin suddenly interrupted Nobi.
But Nobi was resolute.
"I don't believe your nonsense."
He was sure that if he turned his head, Kin would disappear and be impossible to find, based on past experiences at school.
"What are you saying to Kin?! You little brat!"
A large hand grabbed the nape of Nobi's neck, making him flail and scream.
A middle-aged man with a limp, his face livid, was grabbing his son.
The shop owner. Uchiha Nogi.
"I'll deal with you later."
Nogi said as he threw Nobi into the house, then turned to Kin with a kind expression.
"This kid needs a beating, don't mind him. It's okay that you didn't pass this time, little Kin. Just keep trying."
He handed Kin a carefully prepared bento.
"And take this, don't go hungry."
"Uncle Nogi, how much is this?"
"It's free. Take whatever you want."
"Okay, uncle." Kin nodded and walked towards his home. When he was a certain distance away, he took out a fifty-ryo coin and tossed it, letting it land on the counter with a graceful arc.
"This kid." Nogi chuckled as he picked up the coin, hurriedly shouting, "It's too much!"
"Consider it payment for next time aswell." Kin's voice came from afar.
Watching Kin walk away, Nogi's expression grew complicated.
"What a pity."
Despite having Jonin parents, he had no talent for Ninjutsu.
In this power-revering clan, life was tough for him, but there was nothing Nogi could do. He sighed helplessly.
Nobi came over, rubbing his head.
"Why, Dad!?"
Just because of a useless person, he treated his own son this way. He was his biological son, after all. Why did it feel like he cared more for Uchiha Kin than him?
"You little brat!" Nogi started rolling up his sleeves. Seeing the situation was bad, Nobi tried to run but was caught.
Nogi grabbed a broom from nearby and started hitting Nobi while scolding him.
"Your father's life was saved by Kin's father! And you still dare to treat Kin like this! Don't you know he comes over to support our business!?"
Nobi couldn't listen at all, his mind completely overwhelmed by the pain.
"Stop hitting me! I know I was wrong!"
"If I don't teach you a lesson today, you really won't take my words seriously."
"Smack, smack, smack." The sound of the intense beating made passersby gasp.
Kin's way home was also not peaceful. A group of young kids who hadn't started school yet suddenly surrounded him, circling and singing.
"The glory of our Uchiha, Uchiha Kin, Uchiha's waste, can't pass, Ninja."
Kin even hummed along to their tune, not caring about the lyrics at all.
After all, this was already a fact; being scolded wouldn't hurt him.
"Hmm~ hmm~."
He even started dancing along with them, which wasn't strange considering he was only twelve.
Passing Uchiha clan members showed various reactions: some with disdain, some with contempt, some with scorn, and some with sympathy.
Kin followed the kids' mocking rhyme, hopping and jumping, which lifted his spirits quite a bit. However, the kids were not happy.
They had come to mock Kin, not to accompany him.
"Meh." The little kids made faces at him and then ran away.
Kin didn't stop and continued hopping and jumping all the way home.
"Indeed, childhood should be about experiencing the joys of being a child."
Although the atmosphere wasn't pleasant, he could entertain himself.
Upon returning home, he offered three sticks of incense to his parents who died in the war.
"Although it's not a tradition of this world, it has some meaning."
Kin looked at the black-and-white photos of his parents and sighed helplessly.
He was very grateful to his parents in this life, as they gave him a new life.
In his previous life, he got hit by a dump truck because he didn't look at the traffic lights.
A promising life ended just like that, and when he opened his eyes, he found himself in this war-torn world of Naruto, born into the Uchiha Clan.
He felt like crying but had no tears.
Not to mention the unstable peace timeline; although there were no major wars, small conflicts kept occurring, and there was the final battle waiting for him.
After this, there would be the Third Shinobi World War. If he managed to survive that, then there was the threat of the Uchiha Clan massacre.
It was like having a guillotine hanging over his head.
His life could end at any moment.
As for failing the Ninja exam, it wasn't because he was pretending to be weak; he really failed both times.
The last Ninja exam tested the Clone Jutsu, and this time it was the Substitution Jutsu. Unfortunately, he couldn't perform either.
He could now be considered the only one in the Uchiha Clan who couldn't perform Ninjutsu.
As for the Uchiha Clan's hereditary Ninjutsu, the Sharingan, he never had any hopes for it, making him a disgrace among the many transmigrators.
To awaken the Sharingan, one needs to experience emotional pain.
Not to mention the Mangekyo Sharingan, which requires extreme love.
Uchiha Madara choosing Obito was not because he had some incredible talent but because he could love deeply enough to hate intensely.
For Kin, not to mention extreme love, even emotional fluctuations were difficult. He found it really hard to form any kind of bond with this world.
Emotions are crucial for awakening the Sharingan.
Look at Sasuke opening a single Tomoe out of rage on the night of the massacre, and you'll understand how difficult such emotions are to achieve.
The main reason he couldn't perform Ninjutsu now had to be mentioned.
"The damned golden finger!"
His golden finger was called Deduction, which could deduce anything, from immortal cultivation methods to quick ways to fall asleep.
It sounds powerful, right?
But it had many requirements! The restrictions were harsh!
First, to deduce something, a text box would appear where he had to input his ideas and the direction of creation.
Then he had to provide the basic technology!!!
For example, if you want to deduce postpartum care for a sow, you need to provide biological knowledge of sows, the birthing process technology, and care techniques for the sow!
Why not just buy a book on postpartum care for sows directly?
In other words, to deduce something, you first have to provide the underlying logic.
"It's no different from learning and combining technologies to invent something myself!"
Of course, the only commendable aspect is the correctness; anything deduced is guaranteed to work without any mistakes.
Scientific enthusiasts would be thrilled.
"You should go find Orochimaru, why are you looking for me!!"
Well, it's still better to rely on this, as this is also the key to his rise.
The most important restriction is that once something is deduced, he immediately and forcibly learns it!!
He paid a heavy price for this.
In order to deduce, he went through the Ninjutsu his parents left him in this world, and there were indeed a lot of them.
And the most abundant are various types of Sealing Jutsu.
He doesn't remember his parents being part of the Sealing Team in this life until he found a record of it in his father's diary.
"If the Nine-Tails seal is undone and sealed within oneself to become a Jinchuriki, relying on the Nine-Tails' power, can an Uchiha become a Hokage."
He never expected that; his parents were radicals, so radical that they even foresaw the future!
As a member inheriting the radical Uchiha lineage, it's really something to celebrate! What a joke!
Let's not talk about radicals for now. Let's just say he got a ton of Sealing Jutsu and studied day and night.
Although he didn't understand them, he remembered them, and then he had a sudden inspiration.
If he focused on Sealing Jutsu and turned Chakra extraction into accumulating Chakra to create a Ninjutsu similar to internal skills, would manipulating Chakra just by changing Sealing Jutsu have any effect?
The golden finger thought it was very promising.
A version of basic Chakra internal skills bred from the Chakra sealing method.
Chakra internal skills can slow aging, increase physical recovery, and enhance physical fitness.
It's a proper variant of Tsunade's Yin Seal.
If that were all, it would be fine, but his basic internal skills were extremely domineering; Chakra couldn't be expelled from the body!
As long as it was expelled, the basic internal skills would forcefully draw it back.
This has led to Ninjutsu becoming a delusion.
There was no room for regret with forced learning.
Kin's tears were almost dry. But that's not the worst part.
The worst part is that to deepen the advancement, he needs to raise the limit.
Do it yourself, golden finger.
What can he do? He's also helpless.
The Chakra basic internal skills he designed are divided into levels, and he needs to gradually expand the seal to strengthen everything from physical fitness to lifespan.
If expanded throughout the body, normal Ninjutsu can be used.
What kind of rubbish game plot is this!
"I hope this world gets destroyed!" Kin's face was devastated as he started thinking like a typical Uchiha...
