Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 95 Ninja Battle Suit (Please Subscribe)

"Yang Yi Jun, this month's welfare payments have all been distributed, and many clansmen have asked me to convey their gratitude to you."

Mikoto Uchiha spoke in a gentle voice, and after seeing that Yoichi Uchiha nodded without saying anything, she moved on to the next matter.

"The ninja game has already been released, and it will be launched in six cities across the Land of Fire today. However, it's already doomed. Yuuto is very confident that the ninja game will sell well, but now that Konoha is about to go to war, is selling the game a good idea?"

The final question is for Mikoto Uchiha herself; after hearing the news of the war, she certainly won't have the desire to play games anymore.

However, Uchiha Yoichi didn't think so. He calmly said, "It's okay. The war between ninjas has little to do with civilians. At least it's safe in the Land of Fire, so it won't affect them."

Furthermore, the first version of our game was related to war, and GG called on all citizens of the Land of Fire to fight off the invaders in the game. This isn't an ordinary ninja game; it's a patriotic game! For every copy of the game they buy, the ninjas on the front lines will gain an extra shuriken.

Uchiha Yoichi opened the newspaper, found a page with an article titled "GG," and showed it to Uchiha Mikoto. It read, "Contribute to the ninjas on the front lines! In the game, you are also a national hero!"

To be honest, after seeing the "GG" message, Mikoto Uchiha couldn't help but have the idea of ​​buying a copy of the game and contributing a shuriken to the frontline ninjas.

"Shinya and Hideto are already trying their best to purchase military equipment and supplies, but they are not easy to buy now. All the major ninja villages are also scrambling to buy them. They can only try their best to guarantee the share that was agreed upon before."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yoichi shook his head and said, "Since the war has already begun, it's naturally not so easy to buy. Just let them try to stockpile. They should have had the foresight to buy these things earlier. What were they doing before?"

"."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Mikoto lowered her head slightly and remained silent. In the past, her husband had always been in charge of such matters, and she could not agree with him and speak ill of him.

However, given how busy Fugaku was before, it's understandable that there might have been some oversights. Besides, he has already handed over the clan's military equipment business, which can be considered compensation.

"Yoichi-kun, Tokugawa-san said he'll be coming to see you this afternoon. The first combat suit is finished, and the quality seems to be excellent."

Uchiha Yoichi nodded after hearing this and said, "I understand. I will go to see Elder Kenji later. If Mrs. Mikoto has time, she can come and take a look this afternoon as well."

"Oh, right, there's one more thing I need you to do, Mrs. Mikoto: compile a list of the tribe's needs, what they want to do or buy after they receive the money."

This is a complicated matter, and you probably can't handle it alone. I'll go find Elder Kenji, or you, Lady Mikoto, can ask the clan leader for some help."

"Yoichi-kun, I can just find Fugaku, but why do we need to compile this data? What's the point?"

"The clansmen suddenly received so much money, and they receive so much money every month. There's no use in saving it. They'll want to spend it soon. And how many places in the village can they spend money on? They can't even fill a street. It's not enough for the clansmen to spend."

Uchiha Yoichi explained that he had thought of this when he was distributing the money. He was the one who was distributing the money and making money, and he was also the one who gained a good reputation and the gratitude of his clansmen.

In this matter, the only one who would clench his fists, turn red in the face, and be indignant is probably Uchiha Fugaku.

"What's money if you can't spend it? It's not even worth as much as toilet paper. So we need to know what our people want to do and what they want to buy. Knowing this will save ordinary people from having to leave the village. After all, it's quite troublesome for them to leave the village. If we help them buy it, they can enjoy it as soon as they go out. Isn't that a win-win situation?"

Upon hearing Uchiha Yoichi's words, Uchiha Mikoto nodded unconsciously. Thinking about it this way, it would indeed have many benefits for ordinary clan members.

Having money means you'll have to spend it. Even buying some good beef to improve your meals is better than saving it. Besides, very few people have the habit of saving money. This is Konoha Village, and we can't compare ourselves to ordinary people.

Uchiha Yoichi said, "Ninjas have their needs, and ordinary clansmen have theirs. Since we want to benefit our clansmen, we must consider things carefully. However, this might be a bit tiring for you, Lady Mikoto. Fortunately, you can get the clan head to help you."

"Yang Yi-jun, you're right."

This praise came from the bottom of Mikoto's heart. Although she used to dislike Uchiha Yoichi for always opposing Fugaku, now that she saw Uchiha Yoichi often thinking about his clan, her feelings were somewhat complicated.

I also noticed she seemed very tired and wanted to find someone to help her.

After reporting what had happened, Mikoto Uchiha hurried home. She might have to go out again in the afternoon, and while she was at lunchtime, she wanted to check on Itachi.

When they returned home, Fugaku Uchiha was already sitting at the dining table eating, and Itachi was being taken care of by a member of his clan.

The clanswoman who takes care of Itachi Uchiha is Hazuki Uchiha, 28 years old. Her husband was originally a Chunin in the clan, but he died in an accident three years ago while on a mission.

Hazuki Uchiha also has a daughter, who is about the same age as Itachi. Unfortunately, she is unable to work because of her child. However, with the Uchiha welfare system in place and having accepted employment from Fugaku Uchiha, she can ask her younger sister for help when she is taking care of Itachi, which makes things much more convenient.

"Mrs. Mikoto, you're back. Dinner is ready. Let me serve you."

Upon seeing Mikoto Uchiha return, Hazuki Uchiha put Itachi down and got up to serve Mikoto rice; however, Mikoto waved her hand and said, "I can do it myself. You take care of Itachi first. By the way, how is Izumi?"

"Izumi is very good, and Itachi is very sensible. I hardly have to worry about them."

Uchiha Hazuki said with a smile, and then continued to take care of Itachi's meal.

After dinner, Mikoto Uchiha and Itachi spent some time together, but not long after, Fugaku Uchiha called her into the house.

"Mikoto, what did he say to you today?"

Upon hearing this, Mikoto Uchiha sighed inwardly, but then said, "Yoichi Uchiha asked me to collect the preferences of the clan members because the Uchiha welfare system provides money every month, and the clan members will definitely want to spend it. He wants to save the clan members the trouble of running errands."

Upon hearing about what happened today, Fugaku Uchiha frowned.

He hadn't expected Uchiha Yoichi to pull such a stunt; doing so would indeed win over many of his clansmen.

Fugaku Uchiha even considered taking over the operation of these matters, but then he realized that he didn't have many people available at the moment, and the security forces were almost in a period of combat readiness patrols. After thinking for a while, he gave up the idea.

"Mikoto, when you're doing this, try to conceal Uchiha Yoichi's reputation as much as possible, and just emphasize your own contributions. Your actions will also be credited to me."

He absolutely did not want Uchiha Yoichi to become the clan leader. Now, every time he saw Uchiha Yoichi, Uchiha Fugaku would vaguely recall the knife that almost slashed his neck a year ago!

If it were anyone else, especially a member of the clan with exceptional abilities, Fugaku Uchiha might have considered relinquishing his position as clan leader. But Yoichi Uchiha was different; he would not compromise and would not give up his position.

Fugaku Uchiha could not forgive or understand someone who had once harbored murderous intent and almost killed him.

However, Mikoto Uchiha paused slightly upon hearing this, then quickly said, "Fugaku, this... this isn't taking credit for something that doesn't belong to me."

"Mikoto, this isn't about usurping power. It was an idea you all came up with through discussion, and I absolutely cannot allow Uchiha Yoichi to become the clan leader!"

Fugaku Uchiha's tone rose slightly, and his expression became stern.

The room fell silent. After a few minutes, Fugaku Uchiha finally spoke, "Mikoto, I hope you can understand me. Yoichi Uchiha once tried to kill me, and his personality is completely unsuitable to be the clan leader. I'm begging you!"

"Fugaku, like this."

"Please, Mikoto, help me this once!"

Mikoto Uchiha felt her breath catch in her throat. After a while, she managed to say, "I...I understand. I will do as you say, Fugaku."

"Thank you, Misaka!"

Fugaku Uchiha only smiled when he saw that Mikoto had agreed.

Then, the room fell silent. Uchiha Mikoto had intended to get up to do what Yoichi had asked her to do, but considering that collecting the requirements was a complicated matter that she couldn't easily accomplish alone, she spoke up.

"Fugaku, could you help me find two assistants? Things might get very busy from now on, and I'm finding it difficult to manage on my own."

Upon hearing this, Fugaku Uchiha looked troubled and said, "The security team is also very busy. Mikoto, I will try my best to find someone for you."

Mikoto Uchiha originally wanted to suggest finding two ordinary clansmen who could read and count, but seeing the troubled look on her husband's face, she suddenly didn't want to speak.

"I understand, I'll go check on Itachi."

----------------

In the afternoon, Uchiha Tokugawa returned with a ninja combat suit, his face beaming with joy.

"Lord Yang, this ninja outfit is finished. The internal structure is exactly as you described. Its defensive capabilities are beyond imagination; at least I can't damage it!"

Uchiha Tokugawa was only a Chunin, and his chakra nature was the Earth Release, which was extremely rare within the Uchiha clan. After the battle suit was made, he used three ninjutsu, but they couldn't destroy it at all.

Kunai, shuriken, and explosive tags could not destroy this combat suit.

"Come with me to Elder Kenji, let him see as well. Tokugawa-kun, you did a great job, you've done a great service this time."

After Uchiha Yangyi finished speaking, he patted Uchiha Tokugawa on the shoulder and said, "Oh, it's all thanks to the information provided by Yangyi-sama, and also to that spider." Uchiha Tokugawa was a little embarrassed and smiled as he declined, "Not at all, it's all thanks to Yangyi-sama and that spider."

"By the way, my summoned beasts have started breeding and are being raised in isolation. Next month's spider silk production will be enough to make seventeen combat suits."

The spider silk spun by his spider also contained chakra. It was difficult to cut with kunai, and with the addition of special processes to compress and extract the essence dozens of times, it took ten pounds of spider silk to make a combat suit.

Moreover, it is very lightweight, with a complete combat suit weighing less than 300 grams, yet it offers extremely strong protection.

When Uchiha Yoichi held it in his hand, it was less valuable than a few kunai.

The two arrived at Uchiha Kenji's house, rang the doorbell, and were welcomed inside. After explaining their purpose, Uchiha Kenji led Yoichi and Tokugawa to the courtyard.

The Uchiha clan's territory is currently located relatively close to the center of the village, and it is quite large. People of Uchiha Kenji's status and position all have sizable courtyards where they live.

However, Uchiha Yoichi's original house was very small. It was only after he brought back Uzumaki Mina and Geiz that he built a large house on the edge of the clan's territory, along with a sizable courtyard for him to train.

Kenji Uchiha immediately took out kunai and explosive tags to test the defensive capabilities of the combat suit, but before he could make a move, he was stopped by Tokugawa Uchiha.

"Second Elder, this test is not effective enough. We need to put a dummy inside to test the energy absorption effect of the combat suit."

After saying that, Uchiha Tokugawa took out a test dummy from his storage scroll and stuffed it into his combat suit; it seems he had already tested it and was very confident.

Kenji Uchiha first used kunai and shuriken, and with Tokugawa's encouragement, he directly imbued the kunai with chakra and threw it with all his might.

Although Kenji Uchiha did not possess wind-style chakra, his throw still carried considerable force.

However, after hitting the combat suit, the surface was only slightly dented, and then the kunai's momentum dissipated, causing it to fall directly to the ground.

"This level of protection is excellent."

Then Kenji Uchiha took out two more explosive tags and threw them over again.

Boom! Boom!

The two explosions and intense flames engulfed the combat suits, and the thick smoke only slowly dissipated several tens of seconds later.

At this point, the dummy's head had been blown apart, but the combat suit was still intact, just a little dirty.

At this moment, Uchiha Tokugawa spoke up, "If you can react quickly enough to block the explosive tags with your arms, you can reduce the damage."

He then removed the combat suit from the dummy. Apart from its head being blown off, the dummy only had a few cracks on its body. If a ninja were to wear this combat suit and be hit by an explosive tag, they would probably only have bruises.

Kenji Uchiha was somewhat shocked by this level of protection.

"Father, what happened with that explosion just now?"

Several figures suddenly appeared in the backyard. The one who spoke was Uchiha Masato. He had just been patrolling near the clan's territory and, upon hearing the explosion, assumed it was a spy from another ninja village, so he came after them.

"It's a gentleman. Sorry, I was just conducting a test."

After meeting Masato, Kenji Uchiha smiled and explained to him, and then talked about the battle suit.

"Is its protective capability that strong?"

Uchiha Masato's eyes widened upon hearing this; wearing it would practically be like having an extra life.

Upon seeing their gazes, Uchiha Yoichi smiled and said, "Senior Masato, no need to rush. With the current production capacity of the combat suit research factory, we can soon have one for each of us."

The "people" he referred to were naturally his militant clansmen who supported him.
