Naruto: Building the Strongest Uchiha Starting with Gacha Pulls

The Land of Fire, Konoha Village.

A light rain was falling from the sky.

On the playground of the ninja academy, two young boys are fighting each other, wielding kunai.

"The written test results are out, and you're first again, Yuan."

Nara Shikaku, with a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, leaned against the railing watching the battle on the playground, and casually addressed Uchiha Genji, who was eating snacks beside him.

"The written test only accounts for 40% of the score, so it's not a big deal. But you, you can always accurately control your score to 60 points. That's probably much more difficult."

Uchiha Gen shook the empty snack bag and spoke, then casually took a small bag of dried fruit from Akimichi Choza's backpack.

Choza Akimichi blinked his small eyes a few times, looked at the nearly empty snacks in his backpack, and fell silent.

This is the graduation exam for the Ninja Academy, and it's already in its final two rounds. Most of the elite students are waiting here while watching the battle between Uchiha Inahisa and Sarutobi Enjun.

When they saw Uchiha Gen getting snacks from Akimichi Choza and eating them while watching, many others also went to Akimichi Choza to grab a handful of snacks like sunflower seeds and dried fruit, and sat down to watch the show.

Most of the Akimichi clan's ninjas are gluttons, but Akimichi Choza is gentle and doesn't mind sharing food with his comrades.

The premise is that you won't go hungry.

"Tsk, it looks like the competition is about to end. Yan Jun should be the winner of this practical assessment."

Nara Shikaku stood up from the ground and stretched.

The practical assessment has ended, which means that this graduation assessment is almost over.

Because of the Fourth Shinobi World War that broke out two years ago, even the grandson of the First Hokage, who graduated at that time, perished on the battlefield. Therefore, starting this year, in order to improve the practical combat ability of ninja academy students, the graduation assessment will not only test the Three Body Techniques again, but will also use the results of practical combat exercises as the standard for scoring.

"It's hard to say, that kid Daohuo has something up his sleeve."

Uchiha Gen popped a raisin into his mouth.

Currently, the one with the upper hand is Sarutobi Enjun, the eldest son of the Sarutobi clan. However, Uchiha Gen knows that during the winter break this year, Uchiha Inahime learned a C-rank ninjutsu at the Uchiha clan's academy.

The resources available to ninja clan members are far superior to those available to ordinary ninjas. The Uchiha clan, as the most prestigious clan in the current ninja world, also has its own unique educational system.

Clan schools are generally used to lay a foundation for children who haven't yet entered ninja academies, but they are also open to clan members who are still ninja trainees during the winter and summer vacations each year. It's almost like a holiday cram school, in order to prevent any student in the clan from having poor grades and bringing shame to the clan.

Uchiha Inahisa has excellent grades and her overall abilities give her a chance to compete for first place among this year's ninja trainees. In addition, she has a Jonin father who has awakened the Sharingan with three tomoe. At this stage, the educational resources she can obtain are no worse than anyone else's.

Even though Sarutobi Enjun was the eldest son of the Third Hokage, it didn't matter.

As for the source...

He is rather special.

In terms of innate talent, he felt that he could only be considered above average. However, because he was a transmigrator, he matured earlier and accumulated a certain advantage when he first entered the Ninja Academy. With the training of the Uchiha clan school, although the resources were not as good as those of Inahisa and Yanjun, he was not too far behind others in this elite class full of second-generation ninjas.

With the help of his "golden finger" (a special ability or advantage), he was able to maintain his position in the top three of the class, not much worse than Daohuo and the others.

As for why it's only a "small" help...

[Character Name: Uchiha Gen]

Character Level: 8

[Currently loading character card: Sakura Haruno (Ninja Academy)]

[Currently available item cards: None]

Available card draw attempts: 0

【当前属性值：忍5；体4；幻4；力4；速5；精4；印5；贤6；合计37】

……

The system's greatest help to Uchiha Gen was this Sakura Haruno character card he obtained through a gacha pull.

Although most of the abilities that Gen possesses have surpassed those of Sakura Haruno from the era represented by this character card,

However, this character card still solidified his foundation, giving him comprehensive qualities no less than those of Uchiha Inahashi and Sarutobi Enjun.

Furthermore, the card's greatest use is Sakura's almost superhuman grasp of basic knowledge, which allows Uchiha Gen to consistently achieve near-perfect scores and take first place in every written test.

Yes, Yuan has a system on him, and he is quite familiar with this system because he developed many of its functions.

Before he transmigrated, the mobile game based on the Naruto IP developed and operated by his company was very popular. Even though the potato server would occasionally malfunction, it still frequently topped the revenue charts thanks to the players' enthusiasm.

So the company started a "breeding" model, trying to replicate this successful experience. On the one hand, it invested real money to develop similar games based on other IPs, and on the other hand, it continued to cultivate the Naruto IP and developed a card game.

As an employee of the latter project, Uchiha Gen participated in the production of many game content settings. However, when the game was still a half-finished product, he stumbled upon the ninja world on his way to work.

The unfinished games on his work laptop also came over and became part of his operating system.

Because it's a work in progress, the gameplay is still quite rough, with only the basic upgrade and card-drawing mechanics being established.

Besides the character cards that have already been produced, the prize pool also contains a lot of items, some good and some bad, but the probability of getting them is not very high.

This is obviously to force players to spend money.

To get a chance to draw cards besides leveling up, you naturally have to participate in events and gameplay that require spending money.

Their company's games are all about making money to become stronger.

Unfortunately, apart from this part, the rest of the content has not been completed yet. Even the experience required to upgrade the system has only been implemented as a function that rewards experience through tasks.

Fortunately, Uchiha Gen discovered that missions issued by the Konoha Village government could also earn experience points. Even the practical training, monthly exams, and final exams at the Ninja Academy could be counted as missions, although the rating was very low, only E-rank.

"The battle is about to be decided."

A brown-haired boy with a perpetually stern face suddenly spoke up.

His name is Kurama Congyun, and he is a member of the Kurama clan.

Not only Kurama Murakumo noticed it, but many of the other students present also noticed it.

Because the two sides competing in the playground had distanced themselves, their hands were rapidly forming hand seals.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique".

Bright flames shot out from Uchiha Inahi's mouth, illuminating his young face in a crimson glow.

Meanwhile, Sarutobi Enjun on the opposite side finished his hand seals and unleashed a fireball into the air.

"Fire Release: Flame Bullet!"
