Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 43 Mrs. Mikoto's Frustration

After returning to Konoha, Mina Uzumaki went to the Konoha Hospital and found two medical ninjas.

One hundred thousand taels per person is roughly equivalent to receiving the top-tier C-level mission reward, and since they are only tasked with treating a spirit beast, naturally no one would object.

Although ninjas are not short of money, they would not refuse money that is so easy to earn; after the two medical ninjas arrived at the Uchiha clan's territory, they saw Geiz's miserable state and began to treat him without saying a word.

The burned fur was cut off and then ointment was applied. Although the large wounds had stopped bleeding, they still needed to be stitched up, and some wounds also required them to use palm magic.

With the financial incentive, the two medical ninjas treated the matter as a mission and worked very diligently in their treatment.

An hour later, the two medical ninjas were so exhausted that they didn't care about their appearance and sat down on the ground.

The two of them used up a lot of chakra to treat all of Geiz's wounds. Now he only needs a few days of rest to fully recover. Moreover, Uchiha Yoichi also learned through soul communication that Geiz is much better now.

They then presented the payment and sent the two away.

The next day.

After a night's rest, Uchiha Yangyi felt much better. When he got up, he found that the bedding was warm, at least fifty or sixty degrees Celsius.

It should be related to the evolution of Godzilla within him, but Uchiha Yang didn't feel uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, after he slept, his energy recovered quickly.

This morning I visited the Second Elder and asked him to use the clan's resources to find some talent in manufacturing electronic devices, so that we could start making money.

Now there's another foodie in the house. Even the cheapest pork costs forty or fifty ounces per pound; and Gates doesn't like pork, so to satisfy him, we'd need at least lamb or beef.

The cheapest beef is around 340 taels per catty now, while slightly better quality beef costs 460 taels per catty. If you want to properly feed Gates, he would need to eat 32 taels a day!

Even using slightly inferior beef, it would still cost more than 200,000 taels a day.

After calculating this number last night, Uchiha Yoichi didn't get much sleep.

All his wealth could only support Gates for a little over a year at most; his summoned beast was indeed quite powerful, and after becoming familiar with ninja combat, ordinary ninjas were no match for it.

If Gates were to reach adulthood, he would be a standard tailed beast.

Although it takes a considerable amount of time, Gates told him that a thousand years is the natural adulthood of a giant earth bear, when it does nothing but lie in its cave and sleep. However, most giant earth bears will go out to find food that can help them grow quickly.

Therefore, many Earth Bears reach adulthood at around 700 years old. With the help of their parents, it is not uncommon for them to evolve into adulthood at 500 or 600 years old. However, Gates is an orphan bear, whose mother never returned after going out to find food for him.

If Uchiha Yoichi wants Geiz to reach adulthood sooner, he will definitely need a large sum of money.

There's also the Uchiha clan's welfare system and the money for hiring other ninjas; it all adds up to expenses everywhere.

Elder Kenji wanted to make him the clan leader, and Uchiha Yoichi did not refuse.

What's wrong with becoming the head of the Uchiha clan? They're practically the number one clan in the ninja world, with immense potential and many powerful members.

Once you unlock the three-tomoe form, you become a Jonin, and it's very difficult for you to lose a one-on-one fight against other Jonin.

In a one-on-one situation, he will definitely flee.

This isn't something the Uchiha themselves made up; it's something other ninja villages learned from their battles with the Uchiha. If you encounter an Uchiha on your own, you'd better run away as fast as you can.

Once you're caught in an illusion, no one can help you break free, since not everyone is like Might Guy, who can train to fight by targeting feet.

If there's anything wrong with becoming the head of the Uchiha clan, it's probably that there will always be a few lunatics in the clan. However, most of the clan members are quite normal. Awakening the Three Tomoe has an impact on the Uchiha clan members, but it's not a big one.

However, to become a clan leader, one must first establish a welfare system in order to win people's hearts.

While thinking about this, Uchiha Yoichi suddenly noticed the situation in front of him.

A mature and beautiful woman carrying a gift box came out of the house, and the lady of the house came to the door to see her off. She looked a little embarrassed. After seeing the mature and beautiful woman out, she went back into the house and closed the door.

The woman sighed as she came out, but when she noticed Uchiha Yoichi passing by, the disappointment on her face disappeared.

"Mrs. Mikoto, are you here to give Captain Ryota a gift?"

Uchiha Yangyi glanced at the gift box in Uchiha Mikoto's hand. The packaging was quite exquisite, but he wondered what was inside.

But is this Fugaku Uchiha's instruction? Is he also starting to use his wife as a stepping stone, trying to win over the clan members by befriending his wife?

"This wasn't ordered by Fugaku; I just wanted to do something for him."

Mikoto Uchiha said with a somewhat complicated expression, explaining that she had seen Uchiha Yoichi's possession earlier and had been somewhat rude to him, which initially made her feel a little embarrassed.

However, Mikoto later heard that Uchiha Yoichi and Fugaku had completely fallen out, and that Yoichi had sided with the radical Second Elder of the clan, and had almost injured Fugaku.

This left Mikoto with mixed feelings, but she knew that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Yang Yijun was an enemy of her family.

Although it's a bit unreasonable to treat one's clansmen as enemies, Mikoto knows how her husband treats Uchiha Yoichi at home. Since she's married, she should follow in her husband's footsteps.

Mikoto's visit to Uchiha Ryota was intended to help Fugaku, but she didn't expect that Ryota's wife seemed to have received instructions beforehand, neither accepting her gift nor showing any intention of getting to know her better.

"Yoichi-kun, we are all from the same clan, why can't we work together? Fugaku has no selfish motives."

"Lady Mikoto, I believe what you say. The clan chief is unlikely to have ulterior motives, but he lacks the ability to do so, do you understand?"

Uchiha Yoichi interrupted the beautiful woman's attempt to persuade her. Even without him, the Uchiha clan, under the leadership of Uchiha Fugaku, would certainly have been wiped out.

"I didn't originally have much ambition to be the clan leader, but the clan leader has repeatedly wronged me, even though I haven't done anything wrong, so I have no choice but to rebel!"

"To be honest, I don't recognize Fugaku Uchiha as the clan leader. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely become the clan leader myself, and you don't need to do those useless things anymore."

Uchiha Yoichi said with great certainty, then pointed to the gift box in Uchiha Mikoto's hand and asked, "Do you still need this?"

"Why?"

Mikoto Uchiha was taken aback. She hadn't expected Yoichi Uchiha to suddenly ask about the gift box in her hand. However, since she hadn't given it away, there was no point in taking it back.

"Then lend it to me."

Seeing that Uchiha Mikoto had raised the gift box without saying anything, Uchiha Yang took the gift box and then tore off the packaging.

He then took the unwrapped gift box and headed towards Uchiha Ryota's house.

She rang the doorbell, and after a short while, Mrs. Ryota opened the door. Seeing Uchiha Yoichi standing outside, she asked, "Who are you?"

"Madam, I am Uchiha Yoichi. Ryota-senpai took good care of me a few days ago. I didn't bring any good gifts to visit you today, but I will come to thank you properly when Ryota-senpai is home."

"Ah, it's Yoichi-kun. No need to be so polite. Ryota often talks about you too."

Upon hearing that it was Uchiha Yoichi, Uchiha Ryota's wife smiled and naturally accepted the gift box, saying, "Yoichi-kun, would you like to come in and sit for a while?"

"No need, Madam. I will pay a visit after Ryota-senpai returns."

"Alright then, Yang Yi-jun is welcome to visit next time."

When Mikoto Uchiha saw this, she was immediately furious. She knew that Yoichi Uchiha was using this method to tell her that it was completely useless.

This sense of failure filled Mikoto Uchiha with frustration, and she bit her lip in resentment. Then, seeing Yoichi Uchiha nodding at her almost boastfully, Mikoto turned and left.

"Fugaku was right, that guy is really annoying!"
