Family Prosperity Level Up!

The surrounding crowd fell silent all at once.

Xuandou followed the sound and discovered that the one who had thrown the egg was an old woman with graying hair.

She ran to the ninja pinned to the ground, grabbed his clothes, and pointed at the members of the Uchiha Police Force, shouting:

"This is my son! By what right do you arrest him!"

An Uchiha clansman stepped forward to explain:

"He killed a woman after getting drunk. According to village regulations, we must take him back for investigation."

Upon hearing this, the old woman's voice turned shrill:

"Impossible! He is a good boy; he could never do such a thing!"

"It must be you Uchiha framing him!"

"We have witnesses and physical evidence, and the scene also..."

"So what!"

The old woman interrupted him, her voice growing louder as she began to make unreasonable demands.

"Besides, what does it matter if he killed someone! He is a Special Jonin!"

"Even if a ninja kills an insignificant civilian, it's no big deal, right!"

She lunged forward but was held back by those nearby, still struggling desperately:

"You Uchiha only know how to bully your own people! You only know how to act tough within your own walls!"

People in the crowd began to mutter in low voices.

"Has the Uchiha been overstepping their bounds lately?"

"I heard their clan leader wants to be Hokage, and he even mentioned it to the Daimyo..."

The young Police Force member who had been hit by the egg stood in place, egg yolk still dripping down his forehead, stunned and unsure of how to react.

Fugaku walked over with a dark expression and patted him on the shoulder.

"Take him away."

He ignored the old woman who had thrown the egg and offered no explanation.

Three members of the Police Force hauled the troublemaking ninja away.

The crowd automatically cleared a path, their gazes following them as they walked away.

The whispering continued.

Xuandou stood at the street corner, taking it all in.

He sighed inwardly; the conflict between the Konoha Police Force and the public seemed to be growing ever wider...

Just then, a figure appeared beside Fugaku.

It was Uchiha Itachi.

"Father! Mother is going into labor!"

Xuandou's expression shifted.

Uchiha Sasuke, about to be born?

He stepped forward:

"May I go along to see?"

Fugaku glanced at him and nodded.

When they arrived at the hospital, several clansmen were already standing outside the delivery room.

Before long, a loud cry from a newborn echoed from within.

The door to the delivery room pushed open, and a nurse walked out carrying an infant wrapped in swaddling clothes:

"Is the child's family here?"

Fugaku stepped forward immediately:

"I am the child's father."

The nurse smiled and handed the child over:

"It's a healthy baby boy. Give him a name."

Fugaku looked down at the small face in his arms, remained silent for a moment, and spoke:

"I have always held the Third Hokage's father, Sarutobi Sasuke, in high regard."

"My son's name shall be Sasuke."

As soon as the words fell, a system notification rang in Xuandou's mind:

[Ding! Clan prosperity level upgraded!]

[Clan: Uchiha]

Prosperity: B-Rank (Clan Rising)

Clan Population: 3154

Ninja Count: 1203

Clan Buildings: Clan Ancestral Hall, Indulgence Apartment, Desire Hot Spring

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission! Reward: Draw count ×1]

Hearing the system prompt, Uchiha Gento nodded.

After all, as the reincarnation of Indra, Sasuke's future potential was naturally limitless.

That he could cause the clan's prosperity to upgrade did not surprise Uchiha Gento.

The system voice continued to ring out:

[Ding! Current clan prosperity has reached B-Rank (Clan Rising), unlocking clan building: Awakening Chamber.]

[Awakening Chamber]

[Introduction: A special location dedicated to the inheritance and awakening of the Mangekyo Sharingan. The Sharingan of fallen clan members can be preserved here, and through specific rituals, help clan members awaken or evolve their Sharingan.]

[Effect: Can inherit the Sharingan of the fallen by sacrificing Sharingan.]

[Ding! Current clan prosperity has reached B-Rank (Clan Rising), unlocking clan building: Mission Hall.]

[Mission Hall]

[Introduction: A place for clan members to accept commissioned missions. Mission sources are mainly civilian commissions and cooperation requests from other organizations or individuals.]

[Effect: After completing missions, client satisfaction increases by 30%, accelerating the increase in clan reputation and attracting external commissions. Prosperity growth rate is accelerated.]

Uchiha Gento looked at the two newly appeared buildings and pondered.

The function of the Awakening Chamber was very direct.

If clan members who sacrificed themselves in the future left behind their Sharingan, they could be passed on to their descendants, ensuring the clan's strength would not be damaged too much by the death of powerful individuals.

As for the Mission Hall...

This was somewhat sensitive.

Commissioned missions in Konoha had always been distributed uniformly by the Hokage.

If the Uchiha were to build their own Mission Hall to accept missions, it would be equivalent to openly seizing power from the Hokage.

But the benefits were indeed significant.

Clan members would have an extra source of income, the clan's reputation would rise, and prosperity would upgrade faster.

However, now was not the time.

Uchiha Gento shook his head, temporarily putting these thoughts aside.

What was most urgent right now was the system draw.

After the prosperity upgrade, the draw probability had also increased!

"Minister Fugaku, congratulations on the birth of your son!"

Uchiha Gento nodded at Fugaku.

"I won't disturb you any further; I'll be taking my leave."

He turned and left the hospital, his steps light.

Returning home, Uchiha Gento did not delay, sitting cross-legged immediately and sinking his consciousness into his mind.

[Host: Uchiha Gento

Kekkei Genkai: Mangekyo Sharingan

Chakra Attributes: Fire, Lightning, Yin

Ninjutsu: Transformation Technique (E), Substitution Technique (E), Clone Technique (E), Body Flicker Technique (D), Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique (C), Lightning Style: Earth Flash (C), Fire Style: Ash Hiding (C), Yin Release: Heart-Diverging Door (S), Yin Seal: Slave Seal (S)

Dojutsu: Susanoo, Yomotsu, Time-Guard

Remaining Draw Counts: 2]

"Draw!"

As the thought fell, a brand-new roulette wheel appeared in his mind.

Below the wheel, the upgraded probabilities were marked:

[D-Rank Reward 20%, C-Rank Reward 30%, B-Rank Reward 40%, A-Rank Reward 10%]

The wheel spun slowly, the pointer gliding over the slots before finally coming to a stop.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a B-Rank reward: B-Rank Ninjutsu, Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet]

In an instant, the hand seal sequence, chakra flow patterns, and practical combat techniques for Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet flooded into his mind, as if he had practiced them thousands of times.

Uchiha Gento shook his head.

A B-Rank ninjutsu was truly not enough for him now.

He activated his right eye's ocular technique without a moment's hesitation.

"Time-Guard!"

A sharp pain radiated from his right eye.

The draw opportunity he had just consumed was instantly restored.

At the same time, all memories regarding the Fire Dragon Flame Bullet receded from his mind like a tide; no matter how hard he tried to recall them, he could not remember a single detail.

Xuandou wiped the fluid seeping from the corner of his eye and silently chanted once more:

"Draw!"

The wheel spun again.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining an A-rank reward: Mastery of Wind-Attribute Chakra Essence]

A nimble sensation rose from within his body, as if something had awakened in his meridians.

Xuandou closed his eyes to perceive it and discovered that wind-attribute chakra was indeed beginning to generate within him.

He had actually drawn an A-rank?

He was somewhat surprised, but he did not hesitate for long; he had no intention of rewinding this time.

An A-rank reward was worth it.

One draw opportunity remained.

"Draw!"
