Uchiha Matsuzaki looked at the Fourth Hokage before him, unsure of what the man meant by his words. Was he testing him? After all, the Uchiha clan still held a certain degree of influence!

"Lord Hokage, you must already know about what happened earlier. If I hadn't reached out to help, that young girl would surely have suffered."

"I was merely lending a hand!"

Uchiha Matsuzaki said nervously; with his current strength, he had no way to deal with someone at the Kage level.

Furthermore, this was his first time meeting the Fourth Hokage, and he had no idea what kind of scheme the man might be plotting. But he understood one thing: the man was a good person.

Namikaze Minato did not feel surprised to see Uchiha Matsuzaki so nervous, and he smiled.

"No need to be so tense; I'm not here to interrogate you. After hearing about what happened earlier, I just wanted to meet you. I know about some of the geniuses in the Uchiha clan."

"Seeing you today, I truly feel that your clan is a breeding ground for talent! Haha!"

Uchiha Matsuzaki relaxed slightly after hearing what Namikaze Minato had to say.

"You're still in school, right? Any interest in joining the Anbu after you graduate? With your talent, you'll surely have a bright future!"

Namikaze Minato stood up, walked over to Uchiha Matsuzaki's side, and spoke.

Uchiha Matsuzaki thought for a moment after hearing this and said, "I have no plans to join the Anbu for now. Besides, I feel my current strength isn't very high; if I joined the Anbu, I might just end up holding everyone back!"

Namikaze Minato was slightly surprised at this, then smiled and said, "Good, worthy of the Uchiha clan. Very well, if you ever want to join in the future, come find me anytime!"

"Check-in time remaining: ten seconds..."

"Ten, nine, eight, seven, six... one, check-in successful."

"Alright, there's nothing else now. Those two have already received the punishment they deserved. If there's nothing else, you should head back," Namikaze Minato said, looking out the window.

Uchiha Matsuzaki had already completed his check-in and had no reason to stay any longer. He then left the premises.

Namikaze Minato looked through the window at Uchiha Matsuzaki in the courtyard, his expression complex. He had no idea what this young man might eventually change!

That scared the life out of me. I didn't expect it to be just a few words of conversation.

What makes me even happier is the check-in reward. It's actually a bug-level existence: Infinite Chakra!

The reward Uchiha Matsuzaki received upon completing the check-in was Infinite Chakra.

In this world, chakra was equivalent to mana in a game. With infinite mana, he could use ninjutsu continuously.

"Infinite, haha! Even if I encounter a very powerful enemy, I can just wear him down," Uchiha Matsuzaki said with a laugh as he walked down the street.

Walking along the street, Uchiha Matsuzaki suddenly thought of something.

"School seems to start tomorrow. After the Third Great Ninja War, the school was on break for a while, and today is the final day."

"Plus, Mom and my sister are coming home today!"

"I've already checked in twice today, so I might as well head home. I'll tidy up my things this afternoon and head to school tomorrow."

After muttering to himself for a while, Uchiha Matsuzaki arrived at the market, intending to buy some supplies.

I didn't finish my run this morning, but I met her. Compared to that, a run is nothing at all!

Uchiha Matsuzaki thought to himself as he watched the pedestrians on the street.

The events of today were indeed a bit sudden, as if arranged by fate.

Just like that, Uchiha Matsuzaki happily bought many things. By the time he finished, it was already noon. He then carried his items and returned home.
