Su Zheng's house was a two-story cottage. The first floor had one bedroom, one living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. The second floor had three bedrooms, a living room, and a bathroom. However, Su Zheng usually lived downstairs, while the upstairs bedrooms went unused and served as storage rooms or training rooms. Each floor was around 120 square meters, and there was also a 50-square-meter courtyard. Hanzo had treated him quite well.

They bought plenty of basic supplies and daily necessities, as well as several outfits for each of them. The two girls were overjoyed.

Opening the door, Su Zheng looked seriously at Haruna and Konan. "From now on, this is your home. What do you think? Do you like it?"

"We like it! We love it! Thank you, Brother Zheng!" The girls' eyes sparkled. It had not been easy to find a home.

"All right, hurry up and pick a room. It'll be your bedroom from now on!" Su Zheng gently rubbed their heads.

"Yay!" The two girls skipped upstairs to choose their rooms.

In the end, they chose to sleep in the same room, saying it would help them bond. Su Zheng thought it was more likely because they were afraid in an unfamiliar environment and felt safer together.

Su Zheng lived on the first floor, so there was no need to tidy anything up. They simply put away the supplies they had bought.

After tidying the rooms, Su Zheng and the others made hot pot to celebrate Konan and Haruna moving into their new home.

However, during dinner, the two little girls kept sneaking glances at Su Zheng and whispering to each other, which left him puzzled.

After dinner, there were no entertainment facilities, so after agreeing to train together tomorrow, Maki and Shota went home.

While Su Zheng was clearing the dishes, he saw the two girls still chatting. He poked his head out of the kitchen. "All right, hurry up and take a bath. Get some rest early!"

The two girls quickly went upstairs.

After Su Zheng finished washing the dishes, he found Konan standing outside the kitchen.

Konan stepped forward and looked up at Su Zheng. "Thank you for taking us in, Brother Su Zheng!"

"Mm, go get some sleep." He gently rubbed her head.

Konan blushed and went upstairs. Su Zheng could not help but laugh. This girl...

Su Zheng walked into the bathroom and looked at himself in the mirror. His originally blue eyes had turned red, with a single tomoe within them.

Su Zheng looked at the screen in his mind.

System activated. Rescue Points: 2000. Reward: Training Ground, Sharingan. Training Ground: Chunin Exams Training Ground, radius of 300 meters. Permissions can be continuously unlocked through training. Sharingan: The bloodline limit of the Uchiha Clan, descendants of Indra, the eldest son of the Sage of Six Paths. The Mind's Eye of Perception can continuously evolve through use. Training Ground Evolution: Radius of 100 meters (1000 Rescue Points), radius of 300 meters (Rescue Points), radius of 3000 meters (Rescue Points), radius of meters (Rescue Points). Weather Mode (can simulate scenes under different weather conditions, such as rain, snow, strong winds, and more); Scene Mode (can change into different training environments, such as Konoha's forests, Sunagakure's deserts, Iwagakure's rocky mountains, Kirigakure's misty mountains, Kumogakure's cloud-covered peaks, and more). Sharingan Evolution: Two Tomoe (1000 Rescue Points), Three Tomoe (Rescue Points), Mangekyo (Rescue Points), Rinnegan (Rescue Points).

Su Zheng focused his mind on it. The Training Ground was the final arena of the Chunin Exams! Although its initial range was only a radius of 30 meters, it was already excellent that he could expand it through training. It could even change the weather and scenery. This was fantastic! From now on, he could practice ninjutsu in different environments whenever and wherever he wanted.

Most importantly, there was the Sharingan. Su Zheng trembled slightly as he stroked his eye socket. This was one of the strongest ocular techniques. Its evolution required many Rescue Points, but that was fine! At worst, he could slowly train and evolve it himself.

But what exactly were these Rescue Points? How could he obtain them? There was no clue at all. Well, he would figure it out slowly.

Casting aside all his earlier rambling thoughts, Su Zheng felt delighted. His system had no artificial intelligence and was merely an interface, but that was enough.

Su Zheng activated the Sharingan and observed his surroundings. Dust in the air and grains of sand on the ground were all presented before his eyes in exquisite detail.

"So this is the power of the Sharingan? It's truly incredible!" Su Zheng withdrew his ocular power, and his red pupils returned to blue.

Although he had the Sharingan, he could not reveal it. There was no way to explain it, so he could only explore it slowly on his own. Of course, it would be great if there were an Uchiha Clan member around.

With such pleasant thoughts, Su Zheng drifted off to sleep.

On the second floor, in the girls' bedroom.

Konan lay on the soft bed beneath a warm blanket, feeling so happy. She would never have to return to that cold, damp cave again.

"Konan, what kind of person do you think Brother Su Zheng is?"

Konan blurted out, "Brother Su Zheng was willing to take us in. Even though he's a ninja, he's a very good person."

"By the way, why did you dare ask Brother Su Zheng to take us in back then?"

In that situation, Haruna had feared that they would be harmed, so she had chosen to seek protection from someone strong. She had only tried it with no real expectations, yet he had agreed immediately.

Haruna did not explain and instead asked, "Then, do you want to thank Brother Zheng in the future?"

Konan was confused. They had already agreed during dinner that she would thank Su Zheng for taking them in. "Didn't I already thank him?"

"That definitely isn't enough. From now on, we need to help Brother Zheng cook, do laundry, clean the house..." Haruna listed the tasks one by one.

Konan felt a little dazed, but humbly accepted the tasks Haruna assigned them. She did not know why, but Haruna had said they needed to repay Brother Su Zheng, so it had to be right!

The two girls planned out their household chores like that before falling soundly asleep.

The next day, Su Zheng naturally finished making breakfast before waking them up. The two girls felt uneasy because they had failed to do any chores.

He could only patiently explain, "You're still young. We can talk about it when you grow up!" After that, the girls stopped dwelling on it.

After breakfast, Su Zheng went to Amegakure's archives.

"Yo, Zheng, you're here again. Borrowing more ninjutsu?" The Chunin on duty greeted Su Zheng warmly. Since Su Zheng came often, the duty ninja was no longer surprised.

"Mm, this time I want to borrow some B-rank and A-rank ninjutsu!"

The duty ninja was startled and frowned. "Zheng, ninjutsu of that level can't be borrowed without authorization."

Su Zheng raised an eyebrow, took out the authorization Hanzo had given him, and responded, "Of course. My uncle gave me this!"

The duty ninja verified the handwriting. It was indeed Lord Hanzo's order. He immediately said respectfully, "Then what type of ninjutsu would Zheng like to borrow? I can recommend some."

Su Zheng had already considered it before coming. Ninjutsu was about quality, not quantity. The key was finding techniques suited to his own style of attack, so at this stage, he would mainly focus on Water Release and Earth Release.

Of course, he could also learn any particularly special techniques.

"Thank you, sir, but there's no need to trouble yourself. I'll choose for myself."

Su Zheng looked through the documents handed to him and chose several special Earth Release and Water Release ninjutsu.

Suddenly, Su Zheng noticed a particularly special technique listed under Fuinjutsu—Binding Talisman.

Su Zheng remembered that this was the technique Madara Uchiha had used to control Rin and Obito.

Binding Talisman: By implanting the talisman into the target's heart, one could control the target at will. When the target attempted to remove the talisman, their movements would be restricted.

Later, this talisman had been destroyed by Kakashi's Lightning Blade. During Madara's plan involving the Three-Tails' rampage, Rin could not control herself and deliberately ran into Kakashi's Lightning Blade. Later, during the Fourth Shinobi World War, when Obito fought Kakashi, he had also used the Lightning Blade to break free of the restraint.

It had to be said that this technique was quite useful. Otherwise, how could Madara have confidently allowed Obito to inherit his plan? Black Zetsu watched him openly, while the talisman controlled him in secret. Madara truly had everything calculated.

So Su Zheng added a Binding Talisman as well.

The duty ninja entered the archives to retrieve the scrolls. Ninjutsu Scrolls were usually not originals but handwritten copies, and they were also covered with various forbidden-technique restrictions to prevent them from being lost or spread.

Not long after Su Zheng left, Kaiyu Rui, who was stationed in Amegakure, received news that Su Zheng had gone to the ninjutsu archives to exchange for ninjutsu.

Kaiyu Rui had a headache. Reports had arrived that several teams carrying out missions had been swept aside by Amegakure ninjas. He had no choice but to demand a temporary halt to the plan. Hanzo was truly a huge problem!

Now Hanzo's nephew had appeared as well, displaying extraordinary talent. At eleven years old, he had killed three Chunin and injured a Jonin. Such a terrifying genius absolutely could not be allowed to grow. If he could not be used by me, then he could die!
