The Uchiha are a clan of love. It is precisely because they love too deeply that, when pushed to the extreme, they veer toward hatred, causing a person's temperament to change drastically; when love reaches its peak, it begins to fade.
Uchiha clansmen who have not yet awakened their Sharingan are simply people with kind hearts.
Some are born with gentle dispositions, while others possess strong resilience against pressure.
Take Sasuke's resilience, for example: his entire family was slaughtered, and he awakened a single-tomoe Sharingan.
What about a representative of someone with poor resilience?
Uchiha Obito saw Kakashi get injured and immediately awakened his two-tomoe Sharingan; upon seeing Rin pierced through by his good brother, he even awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.
He is the classic example of someone with poor resilience who then embarked on the extreme path of taking revenge on society.
Uchiha Shimizu, regardless of anything else, had lived among the Uchiha for many years.
His parents passed away early, and he grew up relying on the kindness of the entire clan.
He believed in repaying kindness with kindness and hatred with hatred.
He would not sit idly by while Itachi and Shisui, those two Uchiha, stirred up trouble. One's position is determined by where one stands; how could he allow his stance to be skewed?
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and the day arrived once more when he could perform a simulation.
Qingshui excitedly activated the simulator.
[Current attempts: 1. Do you wish to start the Perfect Life Simulation?]
"Start it quickly."
Qingshui said immediately.
[Ding, Perfect Life Simulation in progress...]
[Day 1: You go out to buy three-colored dango and run into Yuhi Kurenai. You jokingly remark that you want to see her in revealing clothes right now, or else you will use genjutsu to bully her.]
[Day 2: Yuhi Kurenai's father comes to the Uchiha clan and discusses this matter with Uchiha Fugaku. Your reputation within the Uchiha clan is ruined.]
[Day 3: News of your reputation reaches the Ninja Academy. The school teachers call you in for a talk to provide psychological counseling.]
[Day 4: While training, you are pelted with stones by two passing Uchiha children, who claim you are tarnishing the Uchiha name.]
[Day 5: You go to the hospital for treatment and meet Nonou Yakushi, known as the "Walking Miko." You develop the idea of wanting to learn medical ninjutsu.]
[Day 16: Uchiha Tekka comes to challenge you to a duel. You defeat him.]
[Day 17: Uchiha Inabi comes to challenge you to a duel. You defeat him.]
[Day 18: Uchiha Tekka and Uchiha Inabi decide to follow your lead.]
[Day 160: After half a year of training, you discover that you have no talent for medical arts. You are deeply devastated.]
[Day 161: The influence of the Sharingan on you is greater than you imagined. You develop your one-tomoe Sharingan to its limit and accidentally reveal a portion of your strength, attracting the attention of Konoha's higher-ups.]
[Day 162: Your talent is recognized by the Uchiha clan. Uchiha Setsuna pats your head, saying you are a true Uchiha and hoping you won't cause any more trouble like before.]
[Day 163: Mikoto invites you to her home for a meal because Uchiha Fugaku asked if you wanted to graduate from the Ninja Academy early to prevent the Uchiha name from being further tarnished.]
[Day 164: The Third Hokage feels you are a promising talent. Although your personal conduct is slightly lacking, you lack the arrogance of other Uchiha and possess more talent than Obito, so he talks to you and teaches you about the Will of Fire.]
[Day 165: Forced to study the Will of Fire...]
[Day 769: The White Fang of Konoha commits suicide. Kakashi becomes obsessed. You go to comfort Kakashi and, under the guise of sparring, steal the techniques of the Hatake clan's sword style.]
[Day 833: You graduate from the Ninja Academy. Because your strength is too low-profile, you are assigned to Team Minato, replacing Obito. Obito goes to another team, and you feel that something is terribly wrong.]
[Day 834: Kakashi invites you to dinner, saying he is happy to be assigned to the same team.]
[Day 835: You are stunned to discover that Obito uses his spare time to seek out Kakashi. Obito and Kakashi gradually develop an inexplicable emotion; although they argue constantly, you can see their friendship leaning toward the original timeline.]
[Day 836: Nohara Rin, unable to stand Obito's pestering, uses you as a shield, telling him to come back when he is as handsome as you. Obito leaves, disheartened.]
[Day 837: You go on a mission and are accidentally injured, suffering organ damage. Fortunately, Tsunade has returned from abroad, and Shizune helps treat you.]
[Day 974: Watching the Uchiha clan living in harmony, you feel more and more that Itachi is a fool.]
[Day 975: You run into Root members in the Uchiha settlement. You know they are installing surveillance devices.]
[Day 976: Jiraiya is beaten black and blue by Tsunade. You happen to pass by and ponder how you might also acquire that kind of monstrous strength.]
[Day 977: You step into an enemy trap and are severely wounded. Nohara Rin uses medical ninjutsu to heal you, but you are left with a permanent disability.]
[Day 978: Back in the village, Shizune, who is studying at the hospital, treats your disability.]
[Day 1095: Your strength has seen significant improvement.]
[Simulation ended, calculating results...]
[Please select one reward: Medical Ninja Talent, Apple x1, Injured Internal Organs]
Shimizu looked at the simulator, which had produced a result completely different from the first time, and rubbed his chin.
Now, there was good news and bad news.
The good news was that he wouldn't die in a year. Following the plot, his life would be secure for three years, and Danzo wouldn't stir up trouble.
He could guarantee a period of stable development and strength accumulation during this time.
The bad news was that he had been assigned to Team Minato, and he didn't know if reality would follow suit.
What if Obito's feelings for Rin weren't as deep as in the original story? Then the stimulus wouldn't be enough.
If Madara saw that, he would think, This isn't right. The darkness in Obito's heart isn't dark enough; I need to find someone dark enough.
Then he would view Shimizu as a substitute, brainwash him, and have him carry out the Eye of the Moon Plan.
"How can I avoid this?"
Shimizu rubbed his chin, not even looking at the rewards for a moment, instead pondering how to avoid this outcome.
After a long while, Shimizu looked back at the rewards at the bottom of the simulator.
There was nothing to discuss this time; choosing the first option was the only logical move, as the other two were just polluting the reward pool.
"I choose Medical Talent."
Shimizu ultimately chose the Medical Talent. This talent wasn't just the literal ability to learn medical ninjutsu; it also represented a talent for precise chakra control!
However, those weren't the most important parts—the most important thing was the Yang release!
To use medical ninjutsu, one had to possess the Yang nature. Shimizu didn't know if he had it before, but now, he was guaranteed to have it.
Furthermore, he could now begin learning certain jutsu that involved Yang release.
[Medical Talent granted...]
