Lessons for the Brats

He could obtain all the resources he was entitled to.

The Uchiha Clan had never been stingy with geniuses, because only such pragmatism would allow the Uchiha to remain strong in the face of all manner of hostility.

Kunai and shuriken training were essentials. In addition, the Uchiha Clan's specialized training grounds were open to them.

These were the standards for ordinary geniuses. Even the most basic Fire Release ninjutsu would be taught by jonin within the clan.

This alone showed the difference between the great ninja clans and civilian ninjas.

Those geniuses received clan education from childhood, naturally developing a stronger sense of identity and belonging toward the clan. In contrast, they would develop a sense of alienation from the village. This divide normally remained hidden, but whenever conflict arose between the village and the clan, they would stand with the clan without hesitation.

Of course, different factions also existed within the village, especially people like Uchiha Yū, who turned against his own.

The moment he arrived at the training grounds, several people gathered around him. The Uchiha member leading them had already revealed a single tomoe in his eyes.

Displaying a single tomoe at that age proved that he was a genius.

However, the mockery in his eyes was undisguised. Looking at Uchiha Yū's fully recovered body and seeing that he was even more handsome than himself, jealousy rose within him as he said in a strange tone:

"Isn't this the trash from a while back? I heard he used to be nothing more than a lump of rotten flesh. Even his parents abandoned him."

"Not only that, he attacked and injured Uchiha members. If the clan head hadn't been so generous, someone like him would have been expelled long ago. How could he still enjoy the Uchiha Clan's resources?"

They had no intention of letting Uchiha Yū off with just a few words. The boy at the front gave a light wave of his hand, and two Uchiha members immediately moved to restrain You.

"Ridiculous."

You could not find any fitting words to deal with the scene before him. To him, these people were merely relying on their greater numbers. If numbers alone could deal with him, then a cold smile curled across Uchiha Yū's lips.

"What?"

Uchiha Yan thought he had misheard, until the next second, when one of the members beside him who had been about to make a move was kicked flying.

"Since you've already decided to make a move, there's no need to hold back."

A trace of ferocity appeared on his face. It seemed somewhat unnatural against his young frame, yet it was perfectly suited for dealing with these brats.

"Get him together! Teach this bastard a proper lesson!"

The Uchiha members rushing forward had no intention of showing You any courtesy. Two of them tried to circle around from behind, but the instant they took a step, You was already standing before them.

A flying kick struck one in the shoulder. Borrowing the recoil, his palm landed on the other's chest. In the span of two blinks, two more Uchiha clansmen lay on the ground, wailing in pain.

The few people who had only rushed halfway froze on the spot.

One boy quietly backed away, swallowed, then moved closer to Uchiha Yan and muttered softly:

"Big brother, I don't think we can beat him."

"A bunch of trash!"

He kicked the trash beside him away, and Uchiha Yan revealed his single tomoe. The scarlet tomoe stared directly at his opponent.

Beyond their powerful visual abilities, the Sharingan also possessed innate genjutsu.

"You, you'll regret coming into this world!"

"Genjutsu! Hell Viewing Technique!"

The instant he opened his eyes, the genjutsu took shape.

As a clan renowned for genjutsu, Hell Viewing was one of the most common genjutsu. Combined with the Sharingan's enhancement, even an ordinary C-rank ninjutsu could achieve unexpected results.

Uchiha Yan was taking advantage of the fact that You was merely an ordinary Ninja Academy student, lacking the mental fortitude to resist it, much less dispel the genjutsu.

He wanted to humiliate him viciously in front of everyone present and let him understand the difference between Uchiha geniuses and the monsters others saw them as.

Thinking of this, a vicious gleam flashed in Uchiha Yan's eyes.

You stared directly into his eyes, but the ninjutsu's effect only held him for one second.

Though he did not know how to dispel genjutsu, You had concealed the fact that he had awakened his eyes. One tomoe against one tomoe.

Clearly, the mental torment of the past few years had made You's will extremely firm. The Hell Viewing Technique's greatest effect was to amplify the fear in one's heart, making one see what they feared most deep within.

But Uchiha Yū had already experienced his deepest fear.

He had once sat in a wheelchair like trash, unable to care for himself. With his parents dead in battle and no one to look after him, every movement had forced him to endure unbearable pain.

Even the simplest tasks of eating, dressing, and daily living left blood seeping from his body after he finished them, not to mention the damage radioactive elements inflicted upon him and the constant agony they caused.

It was like being sliced by a thousand blades every day!

Seeing Uchiha Yū standing there in a daze, Yan walked straight up to him and laughed arrogantly.

"Trash will always be trash. You can't even withstand a little ninjutsu."

When he turned to look at his subordinates groaning on the ground, disgust entered his eyes. He snorted coldly and said:

"You lot had better train properly. You can't even beat a piece of trash. If there's a next time..."

Before he could finish, he saw the terrified looks on several subordinates' faces as they stared at him, leaving him somewhat confused.

"I'm only scolding you. I'm not going to attack you. What are you afraid of?"

"Big brother... behind you..."

One person lying on the ground pointed behind him in terror. Yan suddenly felt something was wrong and tried to turn around to create distance, only to feel someone pat his shoulder.

"That was a pretty good ninjutsu. It reminded me of an unpleasant experience, and it has also truly made me angry."

Having broken free of the Hell Viewing Technique, You had recalled that deep, dark pain. His already foul mood became even more violent.

His right hand gripped Uchiha Yan's shoulder. With only a slight exertion of strength, he suppressed him completely.

"Are you prepared to pay the price for bearing my anger?"

An icy, emotionless voice sounded beside Uchiha Yan's ear. The chilling aura made him shudder.

"You... how did you break free from the genjutsu so quickly..."

What answered him was a fierce blow!

"Bang!"

A figure was sent flying outward at high speed.

Uchiha Yan only felt as though he had been struck by a carriage. The force was impossible to resist. By the time he came back to his senses, he was already in midair.
