Naruto: Building the Strongest Uchiha Starting with Gacha Pulls

Chapter 123 Matt Day

Since Tsunade has already handed things over to Orochimaru, her external brain, what else could possibly happen?

"Lady Tsunade, I'm very busy. I've had my three-tomoe Sharingan for so long, but I haven't even had time to start learning the clan's Sharingan secret techniques yet."

Gen Uchiha knew what Tsunade was planning the moment he saw her eyes.

Because Orochimaru had the same look in his eyes when he conscripted men before.

"Tsk, so when you're training new people in the future, you can always help out by mentoring them when I'm not available, right?"

There are very few high-level medical ninjas in the entire Hidden Leaf Village right now. In fact, apart from Tsunade, there are only Gen Uchiha and Biwako Sarutobi. Both of them learned their Healing Palm Techniques from Tsunade.

"I can go when we're really short-staffed, but I need to spend most of my time cultivating."

He knew Tsunade's personality.

In other aspects, Tsunade may indeed be very diligent, especially in training, where she is absolutely willing to put in a lot of hard work. However, when it comes to various trivial matters and interpersonal interactions, she will definitely avoid them as much as possible.

"I know, but we still have Lady Biwako. You should train when you need to, as improving your strength is always the top priority. It's just that sometimes I have to go on missions and can't leave. If Lady Biwako is too busy, you can come and help out."

Tsunade just wanted someone to share the burden.

She knew how difficult it was to build a complete new ninja system, and that there were many things that even high-level medical ninjas like Uchiha Gen and Sarutobi Biwako could not do.

Putting aside everything else, just the compilation of teaching materials alone requires her, an authoritative figure, to oversee it.

Throughout the entire ninja world, going back several hundred years, only Tsunade had the ability to establish the profession of medical ninja, and its importance is irreplaceable by anyone else.

At that point, she won't be able to avoid being busy even if she wants to.

After Tsunade left, the Uchiha summoned two ninja crows, wrote down the prescription and address, and instructed them to deliver it to the Nara clan's pharmacy.

He is quite badly injured now. Although he has not yet lost the ability to take care of himself, it is best not to cause him any trouble.

Putting everything else aside, just the fact that he's all red and his skin is wrinkled makes it impossible for him to go out.

Not long after, just over ten minutes later, a low-ranking ninja, acting like a beast of burden, delivered the packaged medicinal herbs.

Larger shops like Nara Pharmacy often hire lower-ranking ninjas to perform D-rank missions. These missions typically involve running errands for a few days and are considered a D-rank mission, where the ninja act as deliverymen.

However, a proper team led by a Chunin or higher-ranking ninja usually wouldn't touch this kind of mission—although it's safe, it's tedious and the income is the lowest among all D-rank missions, just barely reaching the lowest rank threshold.

Only those genin who can't find teammates for a while and are in a bad situation will take on these missions.

"Hello! Jonin! I'm Genin Might Guy! Here are the medicinal herbs you requested!"

A genin with thick eyebrows and big eyes, dressed in green, appeared upside down in front of Uchiha Gen's house.

"Come in."

Gen Uchiha gently pushed open the door and looked at the strange genin in front of him, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

It was this guy!

Although it was a coincidence, it was both unexpected and reasonable.

Before Might Guy opened the Eight Gates and defeated the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, he was just an ordinary genin with low strength who was only good at taijutsu. He was looked down upon by all ninjas and was even refused when he wanted to team up with others for missions.

The reputation of being a perennial genin had already spread by this time.

No one is willing to take him on missions he can carry out, and his strength is insufficient without opening the Eight Gates. So, isn't this the kind of mission that Might Dai can only do?

"Is that Dai? Come in. I suffered some side effects from training in ninjutsu and need medicine to regulate my body. Could you please brew some medicine for me? Although I didn't apply for a mission quota from the mission department in advance, I can pay you 10,000 taels of silver as a reward."

"No problem! Jonin, leave it to me!"

Matt Day dropped the packets of medicine hanging from his feet, straightened up from his upside-down position, and patted his chest.

Uchiha Gen took the medicine packet and was surprised to find that Might Guy hadn't tied the packets to his leg; they were just hanging there.

"Dai, did you walk upside down all the way from the pharmacy?"

"Yes, Genjo Ninja."

"Didn't it fall off on the way?"

Matt Day immediately panicked.

"Junior Ninja, please don't misunderstand! I was very careful the whole way. The medicine packet definitely didn't fall off, and the herbs are absolutely undamaged!"

"sharp."

Gen Uchiha gave Might Guy a thumbs-up.

The latter, however, looked puzzled.

"Jonin, running upside down shouldn't be a difficult task for a skilled ninja like you, right? Why are you praising me?"

"No, that's not what I'm praising."

Gen Uchiha shook his head and pointed to Might Guy's leg.

"Simply hanging something on your leg without any other means of securing it, yet it doesn't fall down. While this doesn't demonstrate any destructive power, it showcases an extremely high level of balance and muscle strength control."

Even if I were stronger, I wouldn't have such precise control.

Dai, your physical skills are excellent.

Matt Day was taken aback for a moment, then scratched his head.

"I don't know any powerful ninjutsu, so I can only put all my energy into taijutsu."

"Is that so? While being skilled only in taijutsu might put one at a disadvantage compared to other ninjas, reaching the pinnacle in this area can be just as good. Isn't there a living example right here in our village?"

"Yes! Genjo Ninja, you also know Chen Baojun, Teacher Chen?"

Matt Dai's eyes lit up instantly.

"I don't know him personally, but I've heard of him."

Gen Uchiha shook his head.

There is indeed a ninja in Konoha who has a Chinese name, and he is quite famous.

In the Fourth Shinobi World War of the original timeline, Chen, who was resurrected through Edo Tensei, fought against Might Guy and Rock Lee. He was one of Konoha's top taijutsu-type Jonin with considerable strength, and his ultimate move, Konoha Dragon God, was a first-rate killing move.

In this era, he was practically the idol of all taijutsu-type ninjas.

"Maybe in the future, you'll surpass him?"

Matt Day didn't answer, he just kept scratching his head and chuckling to himself.

He felt he really had a chance.

Seeing this, Uchiha Gen simply smiled, then stepped aside and waved to the latter.

"Alright, come in and help me prepare the medicine. I'll tell you the proportions and order of preparation."
