Mikoto's Hard Work

"You big fat worm, and you think you can beat me? Wake up already, idiot!" Uchiha Ken started getting a little carried away.

Rage value up

Choza Akimichi's veins bulged. He hated being called fat. He had already thought Uchiha Ken was too arrogant, and now he wanted to boil him alive and eat him.

"You're far too full of yourself! Take this!" A powerful punch flew straight at Uchiha Ken's face.

"Tch, such a slow attack. Are you practicing tai chi?" Uchiha Ken merely shifted sideways and dodged it. Even after several matches, he could still easily avoid punches of this level.

Seeing Uchiha Ken dodge to the side, Choza Akimichi had a sudden flash of inspiration, and a gleam flashed through his eyes.

His fat body leaped in the direction Uchiha Ken had dodged, knocking the swollen Uchiha Ken to the ground in one blow. He landed right on top of him.

When it came to strength, Uchiha Ken was no match for Choza Akimichi. With Choza Akimichi lying on top of him, he could not move at all.

Uchiha Ken struggled desperately a few times. Choza Akimichi felt a little pain, then used a clever burst of force to give Uchiha Ken, who was lying on the ground, another kick.

The fat on Choza Akimichi's body acted like a shock-absorbing cushion, but Uchiha Ken did not have that much flesh. He took that kick full force.

"That's enough. Sparring ends before anyone gets hurt." Ueno Juri hurriedly separated them.

Choza Akimichi got up and dusted off his clothes. Then he whispered to Shikaku Nara, "You really are crafty. He definitely won't have the face to see anyone after this."

"This is nothing for a ninja. Other tools aren't allowed in school sparring, or you definitely would have been seriously injured. Don't be so reckless next time you're in a real battle," Shikaku Nara said slowly.

Choza Akimichi's victory had come from catching him off guard. Otherwise, the gap between them in other aspects was far from small, and the outcome would definitely have been different.

"You're just being underhanded!"

Uchiha Ken felt terribly wronged. Being pinned down by such a fat man, he could not move at all, much less fight back. He felt that it was unfair.

"Once you're on the battlefield, who's going to care whether it's fair? If you feel wronged, I can spar with you." Hyuga Matsuba spoke up.

At this point, Uchiha Ken pursed his lips. If he still had Chakra, he might have had some fighting strength left, but there was barely any Chakra remaining now.

In taijutsu alone, Hyuga Matsuba was definitely stronger than him.

Hyuga Matsuba raised an eyebrow, turned around, and went to find Mikoto, who was practicing alone.

"Mikoto, take a break. It's time for us to go home."

Mikoto was still extracting Chakra from within her body. Hearing this, she opened her eyes, tilted her head, and looked adorably at Hyuga Matsuba.

Hyuga Matsuba's heart stirred, and as if possessed, he reached out and rubbed Mikoto's hair.

A faint blush appeared on her face again. Mikoto stood up and looked toward the setting sun, muttering softly, "Time passed way too fast!"

"I understand that you want to improve yourself quickly, but training has to be taken slowly. You can't rush a hot meal," Hyuga Matsuba said earnestly.

"Alright, I understand." Mikoto said so, but her face was filled with determination.

Mikoto looked easygoing and delicate on the surface, but once she set a goal, she would do everything she could to achieve it.

Hyuga Matsuba had also noticed that Mikoto was no longer listening to him. His face was full of helplessness. They had lived together for some time now, and they were getting to know each other better and better.

"If your Sharingan evolves, your abilities will improve dramatically in a short time. If it becomes a Kage-level Mangekyo, you'll become Kage-level yourself."

Mikoto pressed her lips together. "It seemed that only Madara Uchiha in the Uchiha Clan had ever managed that. How could evolving into a Mangekyō Sharingan be so easy? It was simple to say, but not so simple to do."

Hyuga Matsuba said nothing. Having read Naruto World before, he had long understood how the Mangekyō Sharingan was awakened.

If he possessed the Sharingan himself, he might not necessarily have been able to awaken it. But helping someone else do so would be child's play.

Hyuga Matsuba could help any member of the Uchiha Clan awaken their Sharingan. As long as they had a certain degree of talent, it would be a trivial matter. But the price was also great, and he did not want Mikoto to suffer any harm.

If Hyuga Matsuba used Terrifying Samsara on her, that technique might immediately stimulate the awakening of Mikoto's Sharingan.

But if she suffered too much stimulation and her mental state collapsed, the drawbacks would truly outweigh the benefits.

"It's fine. I have a way to help others awaken their Sharingan, but this method will demand a heavy price from you. If you really do it, you may have to suffer." Hyuga Matsuba spoke from the side.

He had already thought of a way to help Mikoto. Though it was somewhat cruel, in the Uchiha Clan, it seemed that only mental stimulation could trigger the awakening of the Sharingan.

"What?!" Mikoto cried out happily. This was truly good news.

"I'm not lying to you, but I have to warn you first."

"What is it? I haven't even awakened my Sharingan yet. Wouldn't it be better if I did?"

"This method will definitely allow you to awaken the Mangekyo, but it has one fatal flaw. If you use this ability often, the damage to your eyes will be severe. You may even be unable to see this world in the future." Hyuga Matsuba was not joking.

This was indeed an objective fact.

The air fell silent. Mikoto made her decision. "If the price is that great, then I don't want it."

Although she desperately wanted that power, she could not accept never being able to see the world again.

"It's alright. In the future, I'll use a safe method to help you obtain the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. Then you won't have to worry." Hyuga Matsuba patted Mikoto's back.

He was the system's favored son. With the system's help, finding a safe and efficient method would absolutely be child's play.

"An eternal version?"

Mikoto could not believe what he had said. Back when she was in the clan, she had learned a fair amount about the Sharingan. The entire clan knew something about it.

But she had never heard of an eternal version. This was the first time.

"Hey! What are you two sneaking around over there for?" Nawaki came over to meddle again.

"What's it to you?" Hyuga Matsuba replied, then whispered to Mikoto, "When we get home tonight, I'll explain it to you slowly."

School life was easy. Without any unexpected events, they could go home early. Hyuga Matsuba was very satisfied with this; school life before his transmigration had been truly miserable.

Moreover, the school's management was quite lax. If your practical abilities were outstanding enough, you could arrange the contents of your practical classes entirely by yourself.
