Honest? No, it's a sharp tongue (seeking follow-up)

A new month, the Superpower Roulette refreshed.

[Eavesdrop on Honest Young Master]: You can eavesdrop on what others are thinking, but you can only speak your true thoughts.

What kind of ability is this? It seems very useful, but the "Cannot Lie" part afterwards gives a very bad feeling.

Uchiha Yoichi immediately became vigilant. He had been using this Superpower Roulette for almost a year and had come to understand the patterns of these Random Superpowers.

The stronger the ability, the greater the price.

If one day an ability that could directly kill the opponent was refreshed, Uchiha Yoichi estimated that he would only have one breath left after using it.

The superpower refreshed this time was indeed quite powerful. Even the most skilled Master Liar would find it difficult to deceive their own heart, and Uchiha Yoichi could hear their inner thoughts, meaning basically everyone had no secrets in front of him.

But similarly, he probably wouldn't be able to lie in front of others anymore.

However, Uchiha Yoichi thought about it. If he couldn't lie, he just wouldn't. It was nothing more than being a mute for a month. How could he, a Chunin, not endure such a thing?

Thinking of this, Uchiha Yoichi felt a little more relaxed, but he didn't completely let down his guard against this superpower. Fortunately, he had planned to cultivate alone this month anyway.

Lightning Release Chakra Mode, swordsmanship, and attempting to Stimulate Sharingan Upgrade.

Thanks to Konoha High Command's indifference to the spread of Rumors, Uchiha Yoichi had no friends, which also cut off his social life.

Moreover, the Third Shinobi World War was about to begin, and Uchiha Yoichi felt considerable pressure.

With this in mind, Uchiha Yoichi began his swordsmanship training. When he left the Security Force, Uchiha Kanbayashi had given him some basic Swordsmanship Scrolls, including Chakra Flow and Sword Techniques.

Uchiha Kanbayashi had even wanted to introduce him to a Clan Sword Master, but Uchiha Yoichi refused.

The Uchiha Style swordsmanship was nothing more than combining fire or wind release with Sword Techniques, neither of which suited him, so there was no need to learn it.

There seemed to be nothing much to learn about Sword Techniques. Controlling the moves well and then killing the enemy was enough. Even the moves themselves were superfluous. A ninja's abilities could be said to be ever-changing, and rigid offensive methods would only lead oneself into a desperate situation.

Uchiha Yoichi stared at the Sword Techniques scroll in front of him and thought for a long time. In the end, he felt that he only needed to practice two.

One was to slay the enemy, and the other was to block attacks.

The former only required him to skillfully control his ninja sword, which Uchiha Yoichi could do. He only needed to practice the latter.

As for how to train, Uchiha Yoichi already had a method in mind.

Ding ding ding ding ding!

When Uchiha Kanbayashi arrived at Uchiha Yoichi's usual training spot, he heard this sound. Upon seeing the situation, he couldn't help but ask, "Yoichi, are you practicing swordsmanship using Shurikenjutsu?"

"Kanbayashi-senpai, it's you."

Uchiha Yoichi replied upon seeing the person who arrived: "That's right, I want to practice my reaction speed. Once I'm proficient, it'll give me an extra layer of survival ability when fighting enemies. It's just a bit troublesome to train alone."

He had to use Shurikenjutsu to make the shuriken rebound and fly back at him, then block each one with a short sword. This way, it could simulate an enemy attacking him with shuriken.

At first, Uchiha Yoichi found blocking quite strenuous. He set a goal for himself: to stand still with both feet on the ground and block all incoming attacks with the short sword in his hand.

"I plan to post a request to find a few ninjas to constantly throw shuriken at me. This will save time."

Uchiha Kanbayashi asked: "Why don't you call upon clan members? When it comes to shurikenjutsu, aren't our own kin stronger?"

"It's precisely because Uchiha shurikenjutsu is too outstanding that I'm looking for outsiders. Kanbayashi-senpai, I'm a beginner. If I had a few clan members sparring with me, I might end up in the hospital by accident."

A single Uchiha's shuriken could achieve the effect of two people. If two Uchihas were involved, and he had to stand still and block, his One Tomoe Sharingan wouldn't be enough. Lasting for half an hour would be considered an explosive burst of effort.

Uchiha Kanbayashi nodded in immediate understanding, then said to Uchiha Yoichi: "That's true. Yoichi, you should also attend tomorrow's Clan Gathering. You know the location, it's at Naka Shrine."

[Sigh, I'm sorry to trouble you, Yoichi, but you have to understand the Clan Head.]

After Uchiha Kanbayashi finished speaking, Uchiha Yoichi suddenly heard another sentence. The voice was still Uchiha Kanbayashi's, but it echoed directly in his mind.

And the meaning of this sentence seemed to imply there was another reason for calling him to the gathering?

"Kanbayashi-senpai, why are you suddenly calling me to the gathering? Is the Clan Head trying to make me sacrifice myself again? Let me think, since I returned, the only incident was that time I acted at the Hokage Building, right? The Clan Head isn't going to punish me for that, is he?"

Uchiha Yoichi was about to tentatively ask why he was being called to the Clan Meeting, but his mouth seemed to move uncontrollably, speaking out his inner thoughts.

"There won't be any other reason besides that. If you ask me, the Clan Head is truly a loyal dog of Konoha. He's ready to sacrifice me without even asking for the details? This is the second time."

Uchiha Yoichi immediately controlled himself and shut his mouth.

Even if he thought that way, saying it out loud was too embarrassing!

"Yoichi, how can you speak about the Clan Head like that? It's because the Clan Head sees that you're almost at Jonin strength and wants to cultivate you that he asked me to inform you to attend the Clan Meeting."

[How did Yoichi know? Was what I said just now too obvious? But what Yoichi just said was indeed too much. Although the Clan Head wants Yoichi to apologize, it's entirely for the sake of the entire Uchiha Clan. Why don't you understand at all!]

"Kanbayashi-senpai, it's best to let him understand for himself. I have things to do, so I won't be attending the Clan Meeting."

Uchiha Yoichi now finally understood the meaning of this honesty. As long as he spoke actively, it would definitely be what he was thinking. When others asked, as long as he answered habitually, the words that came out would also be the truth.

However, in many cases, speaking is a habit, so he needed to use some means to control his mouth.

"Uchiha Yoichi, everything the Clan Head does is for the better development of the Uchiha Clan."

Uchiha Kanbayashi said with a look of anger. This time, Uchiha Yoichi didn't hear his inner thoughts. It seemed that what was spoken out was also Uchiha Kanbayashi's true feelings.

"Alright, alright, Kanbayashi-senpai, I still need to go train. If the Clan Head wants to hold a Clan Meeting, there's no need to specifically call me. Moreover, I don't like his ideals. Stop trying to persuade me."

After speaking, Uchiha Yoichi turned and left. He felt that if he didn't leave now, he might say something he shouldn't, like calling him the Uchiha's most filial son or something.
