Naruto: Building the Strongest Uchiha Starting with Gacha Pulls

Outside the ninja crow breeding base, Uchiha Gen raised his hand to look into the distance, glanced at the sky, turned around and set off. After buying some tonics and throat-soothing fruits, he headed towards a corner of the clan's territory.

At the entrance of a quiet, secluded house.

Wearing a black velvet fur coat, Uchiha Sumi sat quietly on a small stool in front of the steps, basking in the sun, accompanied by a young girl, occasionally glancing at the intersection.

"I rarely see you so happy, Cheng."

The girl's eyes sparkled with spring as she looked at Uchiha Sumi's pale yet handsome face.

"Yes, yesterday I met my cousin, the new genius who's been the subject of much discussion in the clan. Although we're worlds apart in terms of ninja talent, I believe that the legacy of my father, which I couldn't inherit, will surely blossom anew in him."

A gentle, sunny smile crept onto Uchiha Sumi's sickly face.

When a figure dressed in a blue-black turtleneck appeared at the intersection, Uchiha Sumi's smile deepened.

"Yuan, you've come."

"Um, Brother Cheng, here's a small gift. And this is...?"

Uchiha Gen looked curiously at the girl next to Uchiha Sumi.

The girl didn't have much chakra aura, so she wasn't a ninja, but her clothes had the Uchiha clan crest, so she was obviously a commoner from the clan.

The Uchiha clan alone has more than two hundred members who have awakened the Sharingan, and the number of ordinary ninjas and civilians is even greater. It's impossible for Gen Uchiha to know them all.

"Her name is Yuna, and she is..."

Uchiha Sumire had barely opened her mouth when she was interrupted by a girl beside her who blurted out:

"Hello, Yuan clan brother, I'm Yuna, I'm Cheng-gege's... um, neighbor."

The girl spoke confidently and openly to Uchiha Genji.

Brother Cheng?

Gen Uchiha immediately understood the relationship between the two.

That makes sense. Although Uchiha Sumire wasn't a ninja, her father was, after all, a disciple of the Second Hokage and a once-renowned strongman of the Uchiha clan. He must have left behind a considerable fortune. Not to mention, just with that devastatingly handsome face that even Uchiha Gen envied, she could easily charm countless young girls.

He is never short of female admirers, and he is definitely one of the most popular men among ordinary people.

"Hello, Yuna-nee."

Gen Uchiha smiled at Yuna.

"Ahem, Yuna, could you please help me pack these things? Let's go inside."

Uchiha Sumi couldn't help but cough a few times.

The group entered the courtyard and went into the living room.

Wrapped in an oiled paper cloth, it lay quietly in the center of the living room.

Uchiha Sumire removed the oiled paper cloth, revealing a dark blue box with both the Konoha emblem and the Uchiha clan crest on its surface.

"This is……"

Gen Uchiha looked at the seals covering the box.

"This is... cough... a secret technique left behind by my father. All you need to do is add a Reconciliation Seal after the Shadow Clone Technique seal to break this seal."

A slightly hoarse voice came from Uchiha Sumire:

"This box contains my father's legendary Phantom Body Flicker Technique, which made him famous. I don't have the talent to become a ninja, but..."

Uchiha Sumi looked at Uchiha Gen, his eyes filled with determination and approval.

The person before us is the successor of the Will of Fire, certified by the late Mito-sama, who was capable of sensing people's hearts!

"Yuan, you are different. You have exceptional talent and a magnanimity and will that even Lord Mito acknowledges."

The words that Uchiha Gen had said to Mito back then surfaced in Uchiha Sumire's mind at this moment, invigorating his weak body.

This is the most profound manifestation of the great Will of Fire!

The dark blue box was pushed in front of Genji by Uchiha Sumire.

"Brother Cheng, are you really sure?"

Looking at his cousin's weak, pale face, which was even more delicate than a woman's, Uchiha Gen asked.

It wasn't that he didn't want it, but rather that he was just taking out something so precious so easily.

He didn't know how strong Uchiha Kagami was before, but now that he's a member of the Uchiha clan, how could he not know how strong this strongest Uchiha since Madara's defection is?

With his Sharingan and the Phantom Body Flicker Technique he developed himself, Uchiha Kagami's achievements and performance in the First Shinobi World War were no less than Danzo's, making him a top-tier shinobi with strength approaching Kage level.

While Uchiha Shisui's greatest strength many years later was his Mangekyou Sharingan, his real name was Shisui of the Body Flicker, which he earned in his youth!

"Um."

The latter smiled slightly, nodded, and then took a step back, about to bow to Uchiha Gen.

Gen Uchiha had no choice but to help his cousin up.

"Then I will accept it. I thank you for today's gift, brother."

"No, I should be the one thanking you, Gen. You, who possess the Will of Fire and have awakened the Sharingan, are the only one who can inherit our father's will."

Mom!

Uchiha Gen was almost afraid to look at his cousin's burning gaze, which was so intense it felt like it was scorching him.

He has no will of fire whatsoever; all he has is his own will.

Fortunately, Uchiha Gen was exceptionally talented in acting. He performed on the spot without saying a word, but simply lowered his head, firmly grasped Uchiha Sumi's hand, nodded vigorously, and then gently punched the latter's chest.

Brother, there's no need to say anything more, I understand everything!

……

……

Since the assembly time was 2 PM, there wasn't a rush, so Uchiha Sumi specially kept Uchiha Gen behind and had lunch with him.

Yuna cooked a few home-style dishes. Since one of them was unwell and another was about to go on a mission and was quite young, they didn't drink alcohol and just bought some regular beverages instead.

Neither Uchiha Gen nor Uchiha Sumire have any living direct blood relatives.

The distant relationship between the two parties, which had already transcended the third degree of kinship, actually brought them closer together at this moment.

After all, they were still within the fifth degree of kinship, and in the entire Hidden Leaf Village, neither side could find anyone closer to the other by blood.

The lunch, though lacking in fancy dishes and fine wines, was quite lively among the three, lasting until after 1 p.m., just as the scheduled assembly time was about to arrive.

Shortly after, at exactly two o'clock.

Thousands of fully armed Konoha ninja, organized according to their respective units, lined up and assembled at the main gate of Konoha, ready to depart at any time.

At the very front of the group, the Third Hokage, Danzo Shimura, and Homura Mitokado, three high-ranking officials of Konoha, were also equipped with combat uniforms and solemnly awaited the departure time.

Behind them, the three disciples of the Third Hokage stood on either side of the procession.

They will all be involved in this war.
