Uchiha Akaishi Tour

Chapter 219 Water

On his first day back in Konoha, Akaishi visited the orphaned children of Shinwa, and after a short rest, he began... "Teaching by Example." Judging from the title, it's an immersive drama about education.

This year, the number of new members in Konoha ninja families has surged. In a few years, these kids will be at their most destructive. Akaishi chose this drama because he felt he could learn some lessons from it. Although Akaishi is not in the Security Department, he can still pass on his experience to his clansmen!

At the beginning of the story, Akaishi discovers that this time it is a "technological" background again—a world without ninjutsu, chakra or any power that can be cultivated, relying entirely on "technology" to form a social structure that Akaishi does not understand but has become accustomed to.

Hong Yan is a high-level employee under the Zhang Group. Although he works for someone else, he is a junior manager in a large corporation with a considerable salary and a relatively high status. He is married with a ten-year-old child...

[Let me guess, could this child... not be mine?] Akaishi had already started speculating.

but……

Based on current grafting experience, there seems to be no indication of this.

Apart from the grandmother who came to take care of the child and Hongyan's wife who spoils the child a little, there was nothing special. In fact, Hongyan is about to be promoted and receive a raise.

【No, this is really not right, there must be a trap...】Akashi was a little unaccustomed to such a smooth start.

The first scene of the immersive experience is in a hot pot restaurant, where the whole family is having dinner together to celebrate Hong Yan's promotion.

Hong Yan and his wife arrived first, followed by his mother and children.

Then I saw...

The ten-year-old boy started running around the store and knocked a woman holding dipping sauce off her feet!

"Are you blind? Can't you see my precious grandson?"

"If you crash this, I'll kill you!"

"What do you mean by reasoning? Oh, you're going to hit me? Oh... I'm dizzy..."

"You bumped into me on purpose! You even ruined my ice cream, you have to pay me back!"

Akaishi:……

Alright, alright, Akaishi understood the "trap" right away.

"Slightly spoiled," huh? It seems Hong Yan's memory judgment is flawed!

Hong Yan stepped forward, intending to scold his son, but was interrupted by his wife...

"Are you crazy? Xiao Nan is your own son!"

"Exactly! I think you're stupid... Aijuan, ignore him!"

"Hmph, Daddy's the worst!"

Akaishi:……

Hong Yan privately compensated the other party and apologized, and the matter came to an end. When they returned to the dinner table, Hong Yan emphasized that he would focus on Xiao Nan's education in the future... Since it is called "Teaching by Example", perhaps there will be an opportunity?

"Xiao Nan is very well-mannered, okay? He's only ten years old. What do you want from him?"

"I think you can't tell the difference between inside and outside!"

"You go out every day leisurely, while we take care of everything at home, and you still criticize us..."

"Dad does nothing, and Mom gives you pocket money, yet he still tries to control me?"

Akaishi:……

It seems there's no way to turn things around!

and……

What does "only ten years old" mean?

Minato was only ten years old last year, okay?

Afterwards, his wife and mother started talking about their worries again...

"The loan for the new house has been approved, and there's also Xiaonan's prestigious school... Remember to work hard, it all costs money." Akashi: ...

Do you feel that what you said contradicts what you just said?

"Why take out a loan to buy a house? Isn't your current place good enough?"

"The house is so small, Xiaonan has to go outside to play in the indoor playground!"

"Doesn't General Manager Zhang value you highly? With this promotion, please mention your desire for a raise."

"Grandma, I want some snacks..."

"Come on, Grandma will take you to buy snacks!"

Akaishi:……

Akaishi felt that there was absolutely no need to educate people about eating snacks before meals.

Hongyan found the meal extremely frustrating, but Chishi fared better...

Because Akaishi really likes hot pot.

Just as they were finishing their meal, Hongyan's phone rang.

"Xiaoyan! Come quick! Our family has been bullied!"

"There's a scammer here, parked in a beat-up car, holding a bottle of cheap liquor, trying to scam us, and he even hit us!"

"Ouch... my back hurts so much... Xiaonan was pushed too..."

Akaishi:……

Akaishi felt that he could guess what had happened.

"You shameless old woman, aren't you trying to scam me?"

"They attacked first, we all saw it..."

"Don't get involved, don't get entangled with this kind of person..."

The "passerby voices" coming from the phone also matched Akaishi's guess.

but……

Upon hearing this, Hong Yan's wife, Ai Juan, slammed her hand on the table, stood up, and swayed her hips as she walked out.

"Someone bullied Xiaonan... I'll teach them a lesson!"

Akaishi:……

Akaishi felt that he could almost guess who the "victim" was!

Hong Yan followed behind and soon saw two men in suits being beaten by three generations of a family next to a luxury car... Chi Shi: ...

[I knew it... Why else would someone deliberately implant the image of the "President of the Zhang Group" into my memory for no reason?] "Hong Yan? You've really raised a good son, a good wife, and a good mother!"

"Mr. Zhang, Secretary Wang, there must be some misunderstanding here..."

"A misunderstanding? Look at Mr. Zhang's face, it's all scratched up!"

"And the car that Mr. Zhang was going to give to his mother as a birthday gift, your son broke off the car emblem, and this limited edition bottle of red wine, your son snatched it and smashed it!"

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Zhang, I'll reimburse you for the car repair costs and the cost of the drinks..."

"Compensation? Forget about repairs for now. Do you know how much this bottle of wine cost? Back in the day, so-and-so took a sip and it was worth hundreds of thousands, and it turned out to be fake… This is something Mr. Zhang went through a lot of trouble to get!"

"Xiaoyan, what are you doing? He's a liar!"

"Exactly, he's a fraud, and you, a spineless coward, still call him 'General Manager Zhang'?"

"That's enough! Do you think I wouldn't recognize General Manager Zhang?"

Akaishi:……

Good, good, good. Each and every one of them is good material to become an Uchiha. They can all deny reality with their will, right?

"Waaah, oh well, you're yelling at us for the sake of an outsider..."

"I don't want Daddy anymore, I don't want Daddy..."

"Mr. Zhang, I..."

"Alright, that's enough. Get out of the company right now!"

"Hey, if you're going to fire my son, you should at least pay him compensation! One million, not a penny less!"

"Mom, please shut up..."

"Oh dear? Why are you siding with outsiders? He's the boss, doesn't he rely on you guys too? How can you be so spineless!"

"Exactly, with so many companies, can't you just choose one that respects you?"

Akaishi:……

Akaishi was momentarily confused about the definition of "respect".

After making a phone call, the other party left without paying any more attention to Hong Yan, while Hong Yan's wife and mother started answering their phones. "What? The loan has to be repaid immediately?"

"Principal...why? Didn't you say...how can you just expel me like that?"

"Xiaoyan! You need to find another job quickly! Otherwise, our house will be taken away."

"The school also said your family isn't academically strong... Have you been putting in any effort?"

"What's the point of my efforts? Half of Haicheng belongs to Boss Zhang, don't you understand?"

"What kind of attitude is that?"

[Wangjie Full Body Hydration and Moisturizing Device: Nano-level fine mist, nourishing hydration, refilling your body's fluids anytime!]

[Product currently being tested...]

After the first round ended, Akaishi woke up full of energy in the morning and began to try out the new products—the number of "new products" that Akaishi had been browsing recently had greatly increased.

After all, due to the needs of combat and the availability of funds, Akaishi will keep the original "eye massager" and other products in stock, so there will be no more trial of these old products.

"Hydrate?" Akashi's expression shifted slightly upon hearing this awkward word.

The next moment, Akaishi felt his whole body was wet, as if he had received some kind of nourishment...

A moment later, Akashi jumped out of bed and felt... that his whole body was very smooth and soft, almost better than Lanwu's skin - generally, people with the talent of Water Release Chakra Transformation have better skin.

This made Akaishi even more eager to see his previous guesses.

really……

[Trial period ended... Water Release Chakra Transformation Awakening in progress...]

"A physical examination!"

Akashi placed an order for the "hydrating and moisturizing device" and then used it for a "physical examination" to check her "Water Release Chakra (unawakened, 6.01%)".

Sure enough, the Water Release technique has begun to awaken!

Looking at the order list, the "hydrating and moisturizing device" comes with 30 packets of moisturizing essence, which should... definitely be enough.

Akaishi immediately wanted to use it again, but...

[The user's body is detected to be moist and saturated; further use is not effective. Continue use?]

A system notification sounded.

Akaishi decisively chose no.

Although he didn't know how long the interval would be, Akaishi knew that this state certainly wouldn't last forever.

Akashi immediately got up and went to the training ground.

In Akashi's memory, the village's training ground was "abundant" for the first time—a large number of ninjas entered the battlefield, and the number of village ninjas was less than 30% of the usual number, so naturally no one used the training ground.

However, Akaishi had made plans with Ranmai and Might Guy last night...

Actually, Might Guy has a lot of missions to do right now. Because of the war, Konoha has stopped accepting most missions, but there are always some that can't be stopped and must be completed, such as some requests from the nobles of the Fire City. And now that there is a shortage of ninjas, Might Guy, who is usually disliked, has become "in demand".

only………

In Might Guy's view, being Akaishi's sparring partner was the most important task.

Even setting aside the fact that Akaishi had helped him a great deal, not only by delivering the secret medicine but also by saving his wife and son, in Mighty's view, being Akaishi and Lanwu's sparring partner was more helpful to the war than finding cats and dogs for the nobles of the Fire City or investigating their extramarital affairs!

"Hmm? You slept well last night?" Lan Wu looked at Chi Shi with some surprise.

"What's wrong?" Akaishi asked, puzzled.

"Nothing much... I feel... I look pretty good," Lan Wu said strangely.

Akaishi:……

Sure enough, it wasn't Akaishi's imagination that his skin felt smoother.

After a morning of physical training, Akaishi declared that it was time to call it a day…

"Huh? You only practiced for one morning?" Lan Wu looked at Akaishi with suspicion. "Didn't you agree to meet Minato in the evening?"

That's right, Akaishi is going to Kushina's place tonight to learn "Sealing Techniques".

Lan Wu thought that Akaishi would stay at the training ground and practice until the time he had agreed to meet with Minato.

"I need to go back and learn some A-rank and higher-rank ninjutsu... Sigh, if I learn three or five a day, it'll take me a month!"

Akaishi complained with a face full of emotion.

Lanwu: ...

Lan Wu felt like she had asked the wrong question!

When Akashi met with Clan Chief Kensuke yesterday, the chief told Akashi that he should go to him this afternoon—that he could also replicate the three-bar ninjutsu with one eye!

It mainly consists of A-rank ninjutsu, but it can also copy some other ranks of ninjutsu!

Most A-rank ninjutsu that are neither bloodline limits nor secret techniques can be copied with the Sharingan. Some that are more demanding cannot be copied. As for S-rank ninjutsu... most of them cannot be copied, and only a few can be copied.

Many of the Uchiha clan's top fighters also went to the battlefield in the Land of Rain, so Kensuke simply asked Akashi to find him to make a copy.

Just as the morning's physical training was over, Akaishi's skin had basically recovered—the moisturizing seemed to be working very well, but... the effect didn't last long!

This is good news for Akaishi.

After all, Akaishi wanted to awaken his Water Release chakra transformation talent, not to have "smooth skin"...

On the way back to the Uchiha clan's territory, Akashi "hydrated" again. Sure enough, this time there was no reduction in effectiveness, and the effect was fully utilized. The awakening progress exceeded 12%. It seems that he will be fully awakened within a week!

Team 7's "rest" period in Konoha this time will almost certainly exceed one week, or even one month—unless some major event occurs that necessitates their emergency deployment.

Not to mention that Konoha regularly sends ninjas from the war zone back for rest to ensure they are in the best condition... especially their mental state. Besides, it's no secret that Akaishi has advanced to the Three-Handed Sharingan.

Due to the limitations of his pupil power, the one-eyed Sanba is not very efficient at copying A-rank and S-rank ninjutsu. Generally speaking, he can only copy three to five a day. Moreover, Akashi has many attributes, and he may not be able to copy all four-attribute ninjutsu in a month.

If it were not necessary, Akaishi would certainly not be sent out at this time.

"I have the talent for chakra transformation in Fire Release, Wind Release, and Lightning Release. As for Earth Release, you can go and have Elder Lan Yu copy it after he returns," Jian Cheng said to Chi Shi in the clan's training ground.

Chi Shi then realized that Elder Lan Yu was not present—no wonder he hadn't seen him at the clan leader's house yesterday.

"Clan leader, I should be able to awaken my Water Release talent soon, what do you think..." Chi Shi asked again.

"Water Release? So you've almost mastered all five basic chakra natures?" Jian Cheng's eyes lit up upon hearing this, but he quickly corrected himself, "If you add Yang Release, then you've mastered all seven chakra natures!"

Jian Cheng, in high spirits, said, "Don't worry, Elder Lan Yu also has Water Release chakra transformations, he should be back in the next few days."
