Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha lacks motivation.

Chapter 64 The Art of Love in a Man's Dream

Uchiha Gin, who really didn't want to do the work himself, used all his knowledge to trick Uchiha Ryōzai into doing his work in his place.

"But I can't decide these things either."

Uchiha Ryuzaki, who was completely swayed by Uchiha Gin, did not immediately agree. Although he was somewhat tempted, the decision to change positions still had to be made by his superiors.

"I will report this to Elder Yan. You can do it without worry!"

Uchiha Gin naturally knew what was troubling him, and immediately invoked the name of Uchiha Ryukage's superior as a guarantee.

"Then I..."

Uchiha Lucha was still hesitating, frantically weighing the feasibility of the matter in his mind.

"What are you hesitating for? This is yours to do!"

Without a word, he shoved the file into his hand, gave him a "good luck, I believe in you" look, and then slipped away.

"You go ahead with your work, I'm going to investigate a prisoner in the dungeon."

Free labor offered to him was too good to pass up, so Uchiha Gin, feeling relieved and carefree, strode confidently to the entrance of Dungeon Number Two.

Today's shift is still held by Uchiha Lucha and Uchiha Tetsudan, who failed to change shifts. Since Uchiha Lucha was pulled away by Uchiha Gin to work as free labor, only Uchiha Tetsudan is left guarding the prison gate alone.

"That kid Lü Cha said he was going to the toilet, but he hasn't come back for so long. Could he have fallen in?"

Thinking of Uchiha Lucha, who hadn't returned for a long time, Uchiha Tiedan, bored out of his mind after spending half a day alone, muttered to himself.

"Brother Tiedan, right? Let me in to take a look."

An unfamiliar voice rang in his ears, and Uchiha Tetsuya, who was still in a daze, was startled and quickly looked up at the person who had come.

"Uchiha... Gin!"

What came into view was his nightmare of the past few days, a man named Uchiha Gin.

"Is there a problem?"

Seeing his startled clansmen, Uchiha Gin raised an eyebrow and asked curiously.

"No problem at all, please come in."

As if waking from a dream, Uchiha Tiedan deftly opened the dungeon door and respectfully invited him in.

"I'm looking for this prisoner. Can you show me the way?"

Just before leaving, Uchiha Gin casually picked up a file of a prisoner in Dungeon Number Two without even looking at it, and now he handed it directly to Uchiha Tetsudan to help him lead the way.

"Um, this prisoner... okay, please come with me."

Uchiha Tetsudan glanced at the prisoner's name and nodded in response.

"Brother Lü, you'll need to help out in the archives for a while. I'll report to Lord Liuying and have you reassigned a teammate."

Uchiha Gin, who was following behind Uchiha Tetsudan, spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Tetsudan felt a pang of sorrow and grief welled up within him. Could it be that his good brother had already met such a tragic end? It was all his fault for dragging him down with him.

Driven by a wildly imaginative mind, Uchiha Tiedan led Uchiha Yin to the door of a cell, pointing inside to indicate that this was it.

"Heh heh heh, so you're here to interrogate me again, you Uchiha brat? Bring on whatever tricks you have up your sleeve. If I, Yamanaka Souichirou, even flinch, I'm no hero!"

Inside the cell was a middle-aged man with brownish-yellow hair. His hands were tied behind his back, and his indigo eyes stared at them fiercely, as if he wanted to devour them alive.

"There's a fly on your forehead."

Uchiha Gin stared at him and suddenly said something out of the blue.

"what?"

Upon hearing this completely unrelated remark, Yamanaka Soichiro subconsciously shrugged.

"Oh dear, look, he's frowning, isn't he?"

Having achieved his goal, Uchiha Gin pointed at him and shouted loudly.

“…………”

An awkward atmosphere instantly filled the entire space.

Not only did Yamanaka Soichiro remain silent, but Uchiha Tetsuya, who was standing next to him, also seemed to be silenced, staring intently at his own feet on the ground, as if counting how many fingers he had.

"Ahem, Lord Yin, you can conduct the interrogation yourself. There's no one guarding the prison gate right now, so I'll head back."

Unable to continue this awkward topic, Uchiha Tetsuya excused himself and left first.

"How boring! People back then had absolutely no sense of humor."

Shaking his head, Uchiha Gin said with a look of disappointment.

"Are you trying to fool me, you brat?"

"I just realized what was happening," Yamanaka Soichiro asked through gritted teeth.

"Just kidding, at your age, don't you even have the most basic tolerance?"

Uchiha Gin flipped through the documents in his hand and said in a relaxed tone.

Soichiro Yamanaka: Skilled in mental techniques, he was arrested along with Ichino Yamanaka and others.

"I've heard that the secret arts of your mountain tribe are quite powerful."

Uchiha Gin walked meaningfully to the side of the bound Yamanaka Souichirou, looked at his hands tied behind his back, and said thoughtfully,

"However, it was still countered by the Sharingan of our Uchiha clan."

"Hmph! If it weren't for your numbers bullying us, we wouldn't have fallen into your hands. If you've got the guts, fight me one-on-one!"

Yamanaka Soichiro, burning with rage, struggled to defend himself.

"All right!"

Uchiha Gin stroked his chin, nodded, and said seriously.

"what?"

Soichiro Yamanaka, whose hands were suddenly free, was caught off guard and stood frozen in place.

"No way, no way, all that bravado and you're just a spineless coward?"

Upon discovering that the system had not yet reacted, Uchiha Gin couldn't resist adding fuel to the fire.

"Host detected to be in combat; Heart Steel Chest begins to accumulate."

A smirk played on his lips; the reverse psychology tactic had worked after all.

"Damn Uchiha brat, to thank you for letting me go, I'll let you leave in peace."

Upon realizing that the restraints on his body had disappeared, Yamanaka Soichiro stood up, grinned, and raised his hands, making a strange gesture.

Upon seeing this pose, Uchiha Gin, who was familiar with the Naruto storyline, immediately recognized it as the signature move of the Yamanaka clan.

The secret techniques of the Yamanaka clan are all Yin Release chakra ninjutsu targeting the mind. They excel at mental attacks, reading memories, and controlling the enemy's consciousness.

[Ninja Art: Mind Transfer Technique]

Soichiro Yamanaka raised his hand and used the Yamanaka clan's signature ninjutsu.

The Mind Transfer Technique is a ninjutsu used by the Yamanaka clan to release their spirit and temporarily possess the enemy's body.

The art of lovemaking for men!

As Yamanaka Soichiro's spiritual power attacked from afar, Uchiha Gin subconsciously activated his Sharingan.

Whether it was due to the Sharingan's ability or not, he could vaguely see a stream of Yin Release chakra, carrying spiritual power, rushing straight towards his forehead.

While still contemplating whether to feign a sliding knee to gain more stacks, Uchiha Gin sidestepped the opponent's charged attack.

"Ha, you think you can dodge this so easily?"

Uchiha Gin's dodge was not unexpected. Yamanaka Soichiro twisted his hands, and the mental energy actually changed direction.

In shock, Uchiha Gin, unable to dodge in time, could only watch helplessly as Yamanaka Souichirou's spiritual power entered his consciousness.

Logically, the Yamanaka clan's Mind Transfer Technique can only attack in a straight line, but unexpectedly, after years of hard training, Yamanaka Soichiro has managed to change the attack route of the Mind Transfer Technique, which is truly terrifying.

Uchiha Gin found himself unable to control his body to make any movements. A surge of mental energy suddenly rushed into his mind, making him feel dizzy and nauseous, as if he had been on a roller coaster for three days and three nights.

"Heh heh heh, you foolish Uchiha brat, you didn't expect my secret technique to have such a twist, did you!"

A strange sound came from Uchiha Gin's mouth, his tone completely different from before.

Soichiro Yamanaka seemed to have lost consciousness, and his body slumped to the side.

"I'll make sure you never feel the end of your suffering!"

With a sinister grin, Yamanaka Soichiro controlled Uchiha Gin's body, pulled a kunai from his ninja tool pouch, and tremblingly thrust it towards his own neck.
