Yakiniku Q, Private Room.
Takada Fujiwara appeared more mature, while Kakashi was indifferent to everything. Only the intelligent Nara Shikaichi was a bit gossipy, but it was likely more for probing.
"Jin, why?"
"I can understand hiding your strength, but what's the point of hiding your personality?"
As for this.
Looking at Nara Shikaichi's curious face, Uchiha Jin swallowed the grilled meat in his mouth before slowly revealing a faint smile, "The Uchiha have a negative example, his name is Uchiha Obito!"
Instantly.
Nara Shikaichi understood immediately. After all, Obito was quite the oddball and famous among his peers.
Even though he was two years ahead of Uchiha Jin and Kakashi, he had heard of this so-called "Uchiha's shame" and instantly understood Uchiha Jin's intentions.
If it were any other ninja clan or a commoner, being aloof and arrogant would make them stand out.
Within the eccentric Uchiha clan, whether one was too high-profile or too low-profile, they would almost always seem different. Conversely, an aloof and arrogant Uchiha would fit people's ingrained impressions better.
"Jin, you're so smart!"
Nara Shikaichi said it sincerely because he had thought of more things.
Uchiha Jin also chuckled lightly, "It's so much easier talking to smart people!"
Takada Fujiwara and Kakashi, however, looked bewildered.
Having not gone through nine years of compulsory education and not having brains like Nara's, they truly couldn't understand what Uchiha Jin and Nara Shikaichi were talking about.
"That idiot Obito?"
Kakashi muttered softly, then shook his head and stopped speaking.
Because of Nohara Rin, he was quite familiar with Obito. He never expected Obito to be directly labeled a negative example by Uchiha Jin.
Of course.
He was just casually remarking. He wasn't interested in these things now.
Time slowly passed.
Their team dinner was very harmonious. They got to know each other much better, and it could be considered that they had at least some initial cohesion.
After the dinner.
Uchiha Jin parted ways with everyone and returned directly to his own small courtyard.
Uchiha Clan Compound, Outer Area.
A simple two-story courtyard was Uchiha Jin's home in this world.
The house was very quiet!
The courtyard was tidied up very cleanly. Uchiha Jin entered the living room and plopped down on the tatami mat.
His parents were Uchiha civilians who ran a small izakaya in the clan. They naturally wouldn't get home until late every day, which was a good thing for Uchiha Jin. After all, he had the soul of an adult, and there were many things his parents couldn't discover.
For example—now!
Uchiha Jin lay on the tatami mat, constantly exploring the system he had just obtained.
Never mind conquering the ninja world; his survival in the future might depend on this system!
"Plunder fortune, shuttle through the heavens!"
"It seems these are the system's main functions, but traversing the heavens requires fortune points, and my initial fortune points are zero?!"
"I'm an Uchiha, after all. But considering the Uchiha's situation, it's considerate that it's not negative."
"Becoming a captain gave me 10 fortune points, and defeating the bandits gave me 50 fortune points."
"It seems I need to change the plot from now on!"
Uchiha Jin muttered to himself.
He wasn't too concerned about the "traverse the heavens" function for now, as he couldn't get 1000 fortune points in a short time. His current focus was on the fact that for every 100 fortune points gained, he would receive a standard attribute reward and a random reward.
He already had 60 fortune points. If he saved up another 40, he would receive a reward!
[Ding, congratulations to the host.]
[Slightly altering the fated deaths of Takada Fujiwara and Nara Shikaichi, slightly altering Kakashi's fate, rewarding 50 fortune points!]
[Detected that the host's fortune points have reached 100, rewarding a standard Uchiha bloodline and one Uchiha Madara's Fire Style comprehension!]
Almost instantly.
Before Uchiha Jin could react, the Uchiha bloodline began to fuse. Lin Mo instantly felt his chakra surge again, and the power of his Sharingan increased somewhat.
Especially Uchiha Madara's Fire Style comprehension, which made him feel enlightened and greatly benefited.
"Uchiha Jin, come out for a moment!"
Just as Uchiha Jin was slowly comprehending Fire Style, a shout suddenly came from outside the small courtyard.
Uchiha Jin opened his eyes, feeling a slight annoyance.
The sounds outside the small courtyard were filled with coldness and arrogance, bringing a name to mind.
Uchiha Ryugan!
He was one of his neighbors, and although a few years older, they could still be considered peers.
However, unlike himself, who came from a civilian Uchiha family, Ryugan's father was an elite Jonin of the Uchiha and one of the core confidants of the clan head, Fugaku.
Though he wondered what Ryugan was doing here, he quickly opened the courtyard gate.
"Lord Ryugan!"
Uchiha Jin said, very respectfully.
In the original work, the Uchiha clan was merely a backdrop, so much was left undescribed. It was that while people in the village might appear gentle on the surface, the internal rules of a Ninja Clan were numerous!
That was – hierarchy!
As a prestigious clan of a thousand years, the Uchiha were by no means inferior to the Hyuga.
It was just that most Uchiha were arrogant and disdained using cursed seals like the Caged Bird.
Uchiha Ryugan before him was a Chunin, considered one of the clan's elites, so Uchiha Jin had to bow his head.
"Inside is the scroll for the Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame jutsu, fifty thousand Ryo, twenty Kunai, twenty Shuriken, ten explosive tags, and three rolls of specially made clan steel wire."
"Although you've lost your eligibility to join the Police Force, you will represent the Uchiha in the regular ninja corps. These resources are some support from the clan head."
"Don't disappoint the clan head!"
He tossed a scroll to Uchiha Jin, his tone as cold and arrogant as if he were bestowing charity.
It wasn't that he had a problem with Uchiha Jin, but rather that most Uchiha had such expressions.
Uchiha Jin was the same.
After respectfully receiving the scroll, he replied in an equally cold and arrogant tone.
"Thank you, Clan Head. I will absolutely not bring shame to the Uchiha!"
"Hmm, good!"
Uchiha Ryugan said with a look of relief, as Uchiha Jin's demeanor was that of a typical Uchiha.
He patted Uchiha Jin's shoulder and then left with a Body Flicker Technique.
In front of the courtyard gate.
Uchiha Jin looked at the scroll in his hand, unable to help but sigh inwardly, feeling he was a disgrace to the army of transmigrators!
Other transmigrators agonized over which faction to join.
The moderate faction of the Uchiha? The radical faction? Or Fugaku's centrist faction?
Or they would join the Hokage's faction, and the powerful ones would even form their own factions.
And himself?
He was looked down upon by the Hokage, and also by Fugaku.
They didn't even bother to recruit him personally, just sending a Chunin to brush him off.
