Naruto: Building the Strongest Uchiha Starting with Gacha Pulls

Orochimaru left quickly.

Following the assembly point specified in the order, Uchiha Gen and his two companions arrived at a camp.

The young Jonin with purple hair was solemnly instructing his two disciples. When he saw Uchiha Gen and the others arrive, he simply gestured for the three to wait a moment and handed a mission scroll to Aomori and Miyagi Izumi.

"Make sure the intelligence is transmitted smoothly. Once you arrive at the mission location, intelligence personnel from other departments in the village will contact you."

"Yes, Teacher Zixiao."

Two young Chunin received the mission scroll from Mitarashi Shishou with solemn expressions. They then turned and nodded amicably to Uchiha Gen and the others waiting outside the door before leaving.

"You just saw Lord Orochimaru?"

Mitarashi Shishou asked the three of them.

"Yes."

The former nodded slightly and took out another scroll from the drawer.

"For the next period of time, your team will be responsible for assisting in the defense of areas four through six, mainly through patrols and blockades."

"Understood, but our team doesn't have a proper sensory ninja, and I can only barely be considered half one, so is that...?"

"I understand your confusion, Gen, but those sensory ninjas all have other important roles and have been transferred to other places by Lord Orochimaru. I shouldn't be explaining this to you, but you are trustworthy comrades, so I'm saying a few words. If it were any other Jonin who gave the order, even for Lord Orochimaru's sake, they might not be as polite as I am."

Mitarashi Shishou explained to Uchiha Gen.

"I understand. I'm sorry, Senior Zixiao. I only dared to ask because you are an elder among our own people."

Uchiha Gen said with a hint of apology.

Ninja villages are military organizations. When ninjas receive a mission, they should think about whether they have the ability to complete it, rather than questioning the rationality of the mission.

"Yes, go ahead. Don't disappoint Lord Orochimaru. I have other things to attend to."

Mitarashi Shishou pointed outside the tent.

In just a short while, two more ninja teams arrived outside to submit their missions.

As the second-in-command of Orochimaru's faction, he needs to assist Orochimaru in handling many matters.

As Orochimaru became increasingly busy, his time also became increasingly tight.

"Yes, Senior Zixiao."

……

……

The Land of Rain has a hot and humid climate with abundant rainfall throughout the year. Its vegetation is lush, and although its territory is not as vast as that of some of the major countries, its terrain is complex and varied.

Hills, rivers, lakes, forests, or even human-made towns on flat land, each play a different role in war due to their respective geographical characteristics.

The area that the Uchiha Gen team was to patrol and seal off was located in an oak forest.

This type of terrain has limited visibility, many obstructions, is unsuitable for habitation, and has a sparse population. If an enemy wants to infiltrate secretly, this type of place is often the most suitable.

For several days in a row, Uchiha Gen and his teammates wandered around here.

In the woods, flocks of ninja crows would occasionally fly by, their calls of varying frequency and length relaying information to Uchiha Gen like a coded message.

From time to time, a few small snakes would crawl out from the ground and wriggle their bodies to his side.

Coupled with the forest here, Uchiha Gen sometimes felt like a druid.

He used his spirit beasts to take care of everything he could, both in the sky and on the ground.

Although using summoning beasts for reconnaissance might not be as effective as more experienced and intelligent ninjas in identifying well-disguised and lurking enemy ninjas, it was still better than the three of them aimlessly wandering around this vast oak forest along the prescribed route.

Unfortunately, it rains constantly in the Land of Rain. Although the feathers of the ninja crows have a certain waterproof effect due to the oil secreted by their bodies, their flying ability is still weakened. The snakes' ability to sense scent is also weakened by the water flow brought by the heavy rain.

Otherwise, their mission would be much easier.

"Yuan, it's time for a shift change. Liuli and I will take over from here."

Sarutobi Enjun muttered to himself, munching on a cookie.

"it is good."

Uchiha Gen reached out and took the packets of cookies that Sarutobi Enjun threw to him. He then released the summoning and nimbly darted to the top of a nearby tree. He used the canopy of leaves to shelter from the rain and started munching on the cookies with water from his water bottle.

During missions, one must do everything possible to ensure their physical and mental well-being in order to prepare for any potential battles.

Making the most of the time to replenish energy is essential.

Watching his two teammates summon serpents and inspect and repair the traps around them, Uchiha Gen swallowed the salty biscuit in his mouth and began to check the system panel.

"Patrol missions are settled every three days, which is equivalent to a C-level mission. If there are no unforeseen circumstances, at the current pace, I should be able to advance to level 20 by the end of next week."

"In addition, I don't know why my eye power has been subtly improving recently, but after removing the character card of young Madara, I did not activate the Sharingan myself. Is it because my brain and eye nerves are often stimulated by the eye power of the Sharingan, which has activated the bloodline of the Uchiha clan in my body, resulting in convergent evolution, causing my own eyes to also show an evolutionary trend?"

But why haven't I opened my eyes yet?

Was it that Madara's single-tomoe Sharingan lacked sufficient power, or that he hadn't had enough time to nurture it?

Uchiha Gen leaned against the thick tree trunk behind him, unconsciously toying with a kunai in his hand, lost in thought.

This kind of matter concerns the system and involves his deepest secrets. Unlike other matters, he can't seek help from Orochimaru and the Grand Elder, his two mentors on his ninja path.

He had to figure it out on his own.

Just as Uchiha Gen was still thinking, a small, emerald-green snake suddenly slithered out from the side, flicking its tongue at him and hissing.

Yuan recognized this as Uzuki Ruri's summoned snake—including the large snake named Bamboo Leaf, Uzuki Ruri had subdued a small group of snakes in Ryuchi Cave, and their colors were mostly this green.

"Is there an enemy?"

"Uchiha Gen asked in a low voice."

The little green snake nodded obediently.

Ruri Uzuki discovered traces of the enemy, but to avoid alerting them and being discovered, she only sent this small snake to quietly inform them.

"I see."

Gen Uchiha immediately understood. He let the emerald green snake climb onto his shoulder, then leaped down from the treetop. His movements were as nimble as a cat, and he quickly rushed off in the direction the snake indicated.
