[Ding...]
[Detecting the host's soaring resentment, the Heavenly Fortune Plundering System is at your service.]
[For every 100 increase in fortune, you can obtain a standard attribute reward and a random reward. For every 1000 increase in fortune value, you can randomly activate a time-travel service once.]
Before Uchiha Jin could react, an attribute panel unfolded across his retina.
Host: Uchiha Jin
Chakra: 32
Sharingan: None
Skills: Three Body Techniques, Great Fireball Technique, Phoenix Sage Fire Technique, Shadow Clone Technique, Uchiha Nintaijutsu.
Fortune Value: 0
Evaluation: Cannon Fodder
Evaluation: The host possesses zero fortune. Given the special circumstances of the Uchiha, you are prone to falling into various dangerous situations and encountering various schemes and plots. Please raise your fortune value to the safety threshold of 300 as soon as possible.
Uchiha Jin wore a blank expression.
At this moment, he was full of disbelief. After all, he had not just time-traveled recently, but had grown up slowly starting from an infant.
Five years.
He had never awakened a system, and even he himself had given up.
However, who would have thought.
At this exact juncture, the system had suddenly appeared?
Although the system he had just awakened was quite crude and had almost nothing besides the attribute panel, it was already enough for Uchiha Jin.
What truly made it hard for him to bear was that he did not have a shred of fortune?
He was reincarnated as an Uchiha, after all; how could he turn out to be such a wretched disaster?
[Ding.]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the newbie gift pack!]
[10m*10m system space.]
[A standard Uchiha Bloodline: The system synthesized this based on the median Uchiha bloodline, using Uchiha Inabi as the reference object for the bloodline.]
Without giving Uchiha Jin time to react, this Uchiha Bloodline directly integrated into his body.
Almost in an instant.
He felt his chakra instantly surge severalfold and involuntarily glanced at the attribute panel.
Chakra: 376
More importantly, a cold aura spread within his eyes.
Opening his eyes again to look around, he found that everything was extremely clear.
Regardless of the patterns on the leaves, even the wings of insects in the air were clearly visible.
Nara Shikaichi was completely dumbfounded, and even Hatake Kakashi, who looked like a walking corpse, gazed at Uchiha Jin in confusion.
The two of them wore dark expressions at the moment, their eyes filled with bewilderment and shock.
What the hell?
From their perspective, Uchiha Jin had looked at Kakashi, his voice first cracking from shock, and then he was so scared that he directly awakened the Sharingan.
Especially Kakashi!
Even though he was depressed due to his father's suicide and was a person who rarely found anything interesting, he was still shocked by Uchiha Jin's bizarre stunt.
Although the two were classmates, he and Uchiha Jin were not really close.
Even though Nohara Rin often dragged him along to play, because of Uchiha Jin's aloof and arrogant personality, their relationship was genuinely ordinary, and they had barely even spoken a few words.
So, why?
Why had seeing him caused Uchiha Jin to become so shocked that he awakened the Sharingan?
Yet thinking of his father's evaluation and instructions regarding Uchiha Jin prior to his suicide, his gaze turned obscure.
With a soft sigh, he stopped paying attention.
Time slowly passed.
In the woods at this moment, the atmosphere was quite eerie, and the three of them remained silent without speaking.
A long while later.
Uchiha Jin, who had finally recovered from the shock of activating the system, noticed the shocked and bewildered gazes of Kakashi and Nara Shikaichi.
Uchiha Jin asked in some confusion: "What is wrong with you two?"
Kakashi remained silent as before.
On the contrary, Nara Shikaichi's mouth twitched slightly before he spoke with a helpless expression: "You've awakened the Sharingan."
"What?" Uchiha Jin was somewhat dazed.
Nara Shikaichi formed hand seals and executed a Water Style, simply creating a puddle of water.
Uchiha Jin instinctively looked over and saw his own blood-red eyes, inside of which a single tomoe was slowly spinning in each.
A dark line crossed his forehead.
His persona had collapsed!
Other Uchihas awakened the Sharingan under the stimulation of loved ones dying, but if today's incident accidentally leaked out, would it mean he had awakened the Sharingan purely from fright after being teamed up with Kakashi?
Damn it!
Putting everything else aside, he would definitely become a laughingstock.
Still, there was no help for it!
He couldn't very well tell people it was because he awakened a system, could he?
For a moment, he fell silent.
Even as a time-traveler, Uchiha Jin had no idea what to say right now.
I'm exhausted, just destroy the world!
At that very moment, a person wearing a green flak jacket walked over.
Standing beside the three of them with his arms crossed, a gentle smile appeared at the corners of his mouth: "My name is Takada Fujiwara, a jounin. I am proficient in Fire Release and Earth Release, and I also know a bit of fuinjutsu."
"My hobbies are ramen, grilled meat, and fishing; I hate sudden emergencies most of all; and my dream is world peace. Starting today, I am your guiding instructor."
Uchiha Jin furrowed his brow slightly; Konoha had no Takada clan.
A civilian ninja?
Then he was definitely a die-hard loyalist of Sarutobi Hiruzen!
It seemed he needed to be careful from now on, because from the perspective of a civilian ninja, Sarutobi Hiruzen truly was a fine leader.
"My name is Nara Shikaichi, proficient in clan secret techniques, and I also know a bit of sensory ninjutsu."
"I like lying at home doing nothing, hate thinking, and my dream is to retire and go home immediately."
Nara Shikaichi scratched the back of his head.
He felt particularly unlucky. Other clansmen had the Ino-Shika-Cho formation, but he alone was a wretched soul without peers, forcing him to barely scrape by in other squads while waiting for a spot to open up in another Ino-Shika-Cho trio.
Of course.
This possibility was actually not high!
Because the Ino-Shika-Cho combination was fixed; unless someone suddenly died during battle, and he could guarantee that the dead one was a Nara, there was a high probability he would have to team up with others for the rest of his life.
Yet, damn it.
He was already thoroughly unlucky, and to his dismay, the teammates assigned to him were even more extraordinary specimens.
Although Hatake Kakashi was a genius, his personality had turned gloomy due to his father's suicide, making him look like a problem child no matter how one viewed him.
Topped off with an Uchiha, Konoha's legendary walking disaster?
How was he supposed to endure this life!
Thinking of this, he could not help but let out a sigh.
Hatake Kakashi spoke in an icy tone: "Hatake Kakashi, skilled in swordsmanship and Lightning Release."
"I have nothing I like, I hate others dragging me down in battle, and I have no dreams."
His gaze was dim, devoid of a shred of light.
His entire person was terrifyingly cold!
Subsequently.
Everyone's gazes shifted to Uchiha Jin.
Uchiha Jin narrowed his eyes, yet still wore his mask of "arrogance": "Uchiha Jin, skilled in Fire Release, possessor of a One-Tomoe Sharingan."
"I like cultivation, hate trouble, and my dream is to become the Hokage!"
He didn't fabricate things like likes, dislikes, or dreams, because he knew Takada Fujiwara would definitely report today's events to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and making up everything would surely be taken as having ulterior motives.
Therefore, he would just half-make it up!
Naturally, even fabrication had to have limits; otherwise, if his actions in the future completely contradicted what he said now, they would surely be over-interpreted by others.
As an Uchiha whom everyone detested, wanting to be a low-profile nobody required not only careful speech, but also maintaining the Uchiha's aloof tradition.
As for the Sharingan?
Though he had wanted to hide it as a trump card, the problem was that others had already seen it.
Sigh!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
Because Uchiha members opened their eyes after the age of ten, and even geniuses generally did so around seven or eight, yet he had opened his eyes at a mere five years old. He could well imagine the scenario once word of this got out.
Lay low?
In your dreams!
Fugaku would summon him that very day; relying on Uchiha logic, they would most likely force him into the most dangerous places.
The Uchiha were just like that—the more of a genius one was, the more one had to go fight and kill.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was likely much the same.
More importantly, Danzo!
He temporarily did not want to be targeted by Danzo, nor did he want to participate in the internal troubles of the clan and the village. As someone from China, he understood that the bird that sticks out gets shot, and he knew all too well what it meant for towering trees to be destroyed by the wind.
Right now, he just wanted to be a low-profile nobody; even if he wanted to act arrogant, he would have to wait until he had actual strength.
Takada Fujiwara looked stunned: "You've awakened the Sharingan?"
Uchiha Jin found it rather hard to bear, but still nodded: "It just activated ten minutes ago."
He was terrified that Takada Fujiwara would think he had been hiding his abilities all along.
Nara Shikaichi also vouched for him, while Kakashi remained silent, clearly immersed in his own world.
Takada Fujiwara took a deep breath: "Very well, I understand."
"Because friction at the Sunagakure border is becoming increasingly severe, there is no time to give you D-rank missions to get used to each other. I've just taken on a C-rank mission, and the three of you must use this mission to coordinate as soon as possible."
"Because for the next mission, we will be heading to the front lines."
"Alright, move out!"
