Konoha, Year 46.
The Third Shinobi World War, on the border of the Land of Fire, the front lines of the Iwagakure battlefield.
In a makeshift infirmary, Qingye lay on the sickbed with a pale face, bandages wrapped around his body.
After his squad was wiped out for the third time, he had successfully completed his mission and managed to retreat with his life.
"Uchiha Qingye."
"Fractured left arm, burns on his right lower leg from an Explosive Tag explosion, and a sword wound from his shoulder to his chest, losing over a liter of blood… hmm, it's not serious."
The medical Jonin said in a flat tone.
What kind of situation haven't I seen before?
This level of injury is a piece of cake.
Qingye's eyeballs moved slightly, he perked up, and tried to move his right hand, confirming it was fine:
"Senior, how long will it take for me to fully recover?"
"With my medical Ninjutsu skills, ten days, half a month at most… hmm, you should rest well during this time, and you can take on missions again after half a month."
"Half a month?!"
Qingye's face fell.
The medical Jonin was somewhat helpless, "The rest period is indeed a bit short, but there's no other way. You know, the Iwagakure battlefield is short-handed right now, so we can't let you rest for too long."
Konoha was currently being attacked from all sides.
On the Iwagakure battlefield alone, there was an army of thousands of Iwagakure Ninja within the Land of Grass.
While on the Konoha Ninja Camp side, there were less than five hundred Ninja…
"Too long!"
"Huh? What?"
The medical Jonin was stunned, not understanding.
"I can't rest for this long! Let me recover faster, and I can return to the battlefield to take on missions as soon as I'm healed!" Qingye said urgently.
"..."
Good heavens!
Do you want to take another look at your injuries?
My medical Ninjutsu can make you fully recover, but it can't make you instantly revive with full HP!
The medical Jonin was a bit perplexed.
He had seen many Ninja who faked their injuries to avoid going to the battlefield.
But this was the first time he had seen someone who had just suffered a severe injury, had their squad wiped out, and then wanted to immediately return to the battlefield to die!
The Iwagakure battlefield was short-handed, but they wouldn't use their own village's Ninja like this!
Or were all people from the Uchiha clan this crazy?
The medical Jonin thought for a moment, then asked, "I heard your squad encountered a squad led by a Tokubetsu Jonin from Iwagakure this time, but in the end, you killed them all by yourself?"
"It was just luck, my teammates also played a big part," Qingye shook his head.
"You're too humble. With your talent, you're almost as gifted as that Kakashi Hatake," the medical Jonin couldn't help but sigh.
"...I'm still far from Kakashi."
Qingye wasn't being humble this time at all.
He knew better than anyone the gap in talent between himself and Kakashi.
"But it's not that far off."
As the medical Jonin left, he gave one last piece of advice, "I'll find a way to speed up your recovery, but you also need to think clearly. Even geniuses need to grow first, and necessary rest is crucial to ensure you can perform at your best in the next mission."
Qingye lay on his back on the sickbed, touched his eye sockets, and couldn't help but sigh.
The current situation left him no choice but to be anxious.
The situation on the Iwagakure battlefield was not optimistic.
Who knew when the Minato Namikaze squad would be dispatched to blow up the bridge!
Although it was Kakashi's squad that was responsible for blowing up the bridge in the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, Qingye remembered very clearly that while the Battle of Kannabi Bridge was ongoing, other parts of the Iwagakure battlefield were also in fierce battles!
Including the battle where Minato Namikaze shook the ninja world by fighting 1 vs. 50!
And in that battlefield, by the time Minato Namikaze arrived, the Konoha side had been beaten down to only 4 people left…
Qingye didn't have the confidence that he could survive such a high casualty ratio battle.
He had to seize this last opportunity to find a way to improve his strength!
But still, he did have some talent, though not much.
He transmigrated to the world of Naruto, and what's more, into the Uchiha clan. Orphaned from birth, he awakened memories of his past life at the age of three.
With the Uchiha bloodline and decent talent.
He thought he would have a bright future.
After easily mastering the Three Body Techniques when he first started learning Ninjutsu, he was once proud of his talent.
But in his first year at the Ninja Academy, when the teacher tested everyone's Clone Technique mastery, Kakashi Hatake pulled off a Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu!
Not a Clone Technique, not even a Shadow Clone, but a Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu!
Aoya was completely stunned at the time!
Is this even human?
Is this damn kid five years old?!
Later, Aoya went back and sought out the clan's elder, pestering him until he was allowed to try cultivating the Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu, but he couldn't even use the Shadow Clone Technique.
He hadn't even reached the Chakra threshold required for Shadow Clones!
It truly lived up to the saying: the gap between people is greater than the gap between a person and a dog.
After being doused with a bucket of cold water by reality, Aoya didn't give up. He continued to train diligently, watching Kakashi graduate early at five, become a Chunin at six...
He himself graduated at nine with his peers. After a few months of C-rank and D-rank missions, the Third Shinobi World War broke out, and he began his career as "cannon fodder."
Until now.
He fought for two and a half years on the Battlefield, awakened his Sharingan, and upgraded it to Two Tomoe, gaining roughly the strength of a Tokubetsu Jonin.
But that wasn't enough!
"Forget Mangekyo, at least upgrade me to Three Tomoe?" Aoya was depressed.
Over the years, Aoya realized he was missing something regarding his Sharingan.
He wasn't crazy enough!
As everyone knows, the crazier the personality of a Uchiha, the stronger their Sharingan talent!
If you're not crazy, how can you awaken the Mangekyo?
But Aoya felt his personality couldn't possibly match those crazy bastards, beasts, and inhuman creatures, and he also didn't have any important "eye-opening tool people" around him.
So, there was only one path left:
Fight! Just fight to the death!
The Uchiha clan should awaken their eyes in life-or-death battles!
Aoya's previous eye-opening and Two Tomoe upgrade came about this way.
But this time, it failed.
He narrowly escaped death once again, but his Sharingan didn't upgrade.
"Sigh, if only I had a cheat."
Why would he need to risk his life repeatedly to awaken his eyes like this now?
Forget it.
Without a cheat, he could still survive the Third Shinobi World War!
Lying on the hospital bed, Aoya prepared to practice hand seals with his still-intact right hand when a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
[Future Loan System loading complete. Bind?]
"???"
He shot up in shock.
He confirmed carefully, sure it wasn't Genjutsu!
[Bind?]
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Aoya quickly responded in his mind.
To be honest, he could survive without a cheat, but with a Golden Finger, the possibilities would be endless!
