Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 3 Ability Activation

"Lightning Release Chakra Mode utilizes special Lightning Release chakra to stimulate the body's nerves, increasing speed. It also allows the user to wrap Lightning Release chakra around their body for attack or defense."

Uchiha Yoichi read the cultivation scroll more than a dozen times, memorizing every word until he could recite it almost backwards, before destroying the scroll.

First, he needs to master the lightning nature transformation of chakra, which is a prerequisite for releasing lightning ninjutsu.

Nature transformation, simply put, is about making chakra simulate the changes of various attributes, not actually turning chakra into lightning or water. The reason it can be cut by wind release or burned by fire release is because chakra imitates the sharpness of wind and the temperature of fire to achieve the effect.

Uchiha Yoichi clearly remembered that when Sarutobi Asuma was teaching Naruto about wind nature transformation, he said that dividing chakra into two balls and rubbing them together continuously to make them thinner and sharper was wind nature transformation.

Lightning has many variations, but in the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, a ninjutsu, Uchiha Yoichi felt he should first master the two aspects of 'stimulation' and 'conduction'.

"By accelerating the flow of chakra through the body's meridians, simulating the effect of an electric current, we can activate the body's chakra and increase speed and power. However, the Lightning Release Chakra Mode is a bit more complex."

Uchiha Yoichi was a Chunin, so he naturally mastered climbing trees and walking on water, and he could increase his speed by gathering chakra in his feet.

"I'll go find an electrician this afternoon to see if he can make me a transformer to release current; it might help with my cultivation."

The technology in the ninja world was quite advanced; electrical appliances had already appeared by this time.

Soon, Uchiha Yoichi began to use chakra to simulate the nature transformation of lightning. One advantage was that he suddenly activated his ability when looking in the mirror, allowing him to see through his body and prevent overtraining from causing internal damage.

This may be the only use of this ability; by observing the meridians within the body during cultivation, one can also reduce the risks.

"Yang Yi, you're cultivating?"

When Uchiha Rin arrived at the training ground, he saw Uchiha Yoichi sitting on the ground covered in sweat. He couldn't help but nod in approval. This is how a genius of the Uchiha clan should be, with both talent and hard work going hand in hand.

Uchiha Yoichi, slightly out of breath, said, "I wanted to cultivate the nature transformation of lightning. After a week of practice, I've finally managed to activate my cells."

Uchiha Rin nodded and said, "You've achieved cell activation in just one week? Yoichi, your talent is quite good. You've already mastered the Lightning Nature Transformation to this extent. Once you master the second chakra nature transformation, you won't be far from becoming a Jonin."

Once you've reached a certain level of strength, the rest comes down to experience, and the Uchiha clan, being a large clan, has the ability to help its members gain experience quickly.

"Let's not talk about that. The clan chief wants you to go to his house. It seems like the village has made a decision."

"It's been a week already; I thought it would be shelved until next year before it was dealt with."

"Yang Yi, I know you feel wronged for being ignored despite your merits. However, the clan leader sometimes has to compromise. Yang Yi, you should understand the clan leader when the time comes."

"Uchiha Masahiro sighed."

Fugaku Uchiha was not satisfied with the Uchiha clan being confined to the police force. He wanted the Uchiha to be more integrated into Konoha, such as the Anbu and mission squads. Therefore, on a certain issue, Fugaku Uchiha would make concessions to the Konoha leadership in exchange for the clan taking a step forward.

Uchiha Masahiro was aware of this situation, and he felt that the Fugaku clan leader's choice was correct. To gain something, you have to give up something, and the clan members should understand.

But Uchiha Yoichi was an exception; he was not a pure-blooded Uchiha.

"I'll go back and change my clothes, Senior Mabayashi."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

After saying that, Uchiha Rin and Uchiha Yoichi went home first. They had trained all morning and were covered in sweat. They were still a little dirty, so they needed to take a shower and change their clothes.

"Senior Jianlin, I haven't eaten yet."

Uchiha Masahiro shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it after we leave the clan head's house. It'll probably only take a few words."

The two then headed toward Fugaku Uchiha's house, and soon arrived at the gate of a mansion.

After ringing the doorbell, the door opened shortly afterward, and a young woman with a mature and beautiful demeanor smiled and said, "Mr. Mabayashi, this must be Mr. Yoichi. Fugaku is already waiting for you."

"Sorry to bother you."

After bowing slightly, Uchiha Masahiro and Uchiha Yoichi changed their shoes in the entryway and went inside.

This must be Uchiha Mikoto. Judging from the timeline, the most filial son of the Uchiha clan will be born in two years. Thinking of Uchiha Itachi, Yoichi wanted to find an opportunity to drown him.

After entering the house, the two were led to the reception room by Uchiha Mikoto.

Fugaku Uchiha was already waiting inside. Upon seeing Mabayashi and Yoichi, Fugaku nodded expressionlessly and said, "Maba-senpai, Yoichi, you've arrived. Please have a seat."

"Chieftain."

After taking his seat, Fugaku Uchiha got straight to the point without beating around the bush: "Yoichi-kun, the Konoha leadership has already reached a conclusion regarding the matter from last time. The Iwa ninja head you brought back will be of great help to the village, and the village has now dispatched personnel to thwart the Iwa ninja's plot."

"However, the interrogation team also questioned your surviving teammate and the information obtained from the heads of the Iwa ninja. The village believes you have a tendency to exploit your teammates during missions. Although you inadvertently achieved merit this time, the village leadership does not recommend that you continue to form or participate in mission teams."

"Jianlin also told me about your intentions, so I wanted to ask you personally today: are you still willing to join the security force?"

After hearing this, Uchiha Yoichi remained silent for a moment before asking, "Clan head, I don't understand. A Chunin and three Genin encountered a Jonin, a Chunin, and two Genin on the other side. It's already an accident that they survived. Why do they think I have a tendency to exploit my teammates?"

"The surviving member of your team is no longer fit to be a ninja. According to him, you should have had a chance to save him."

"How can I save him without chakra? By relying on the Will of Fire or by talking? Clan leader, why didn't the current Konoha leadership save the Second Hokage back then? They should have been the Shadow Guard."

"Yangyi, this is the village's suggestion. As the clan chief, I have accepted it, and I hope you can understand."

Fugaku Uchiha emphasized his words slightly. This was the result of discussions between the Uchiha clan and the village. Although it was a suggestion, it couldn't be changed now.

However, he knew that Uchiha Yoichi was somewhat aggrieved, so he softened his tone and continued, "The clan knows about your contributions, so they can compensate you."

"No need, anyway..."

"Fugaku, I have prepared tea and refreshments for you."

Just as Uchiha Yoichi was about to say something, he heard Uchiha Mikoto's gentle voice outside the door, so he stopped talking.

However, at this moment, Uchiha Yoichi's eyes felt slightly itchy. It wasn't the Sharingan; he had long been able to control the Sharingan freely.

Damn it, that useless ability!

From Uchiha Yoichi's perspective, a person walked in carrying a tea tray.

"Fugaku, I'll leave the tea and snacks here. Oh, oh, oh!?"

Before Mikoto Uchiha could finish speaking, her eyes widened instantly. Her mind was in a state of confusion, wondering why there was a naked boy in front of her.
