Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha lacks motivation.

Chapter 184 As expected, the Senju clan is the largest.

Compared to the bustling moon, people on Earth are peacefully enjoying a pleasant night.

The pure white moonlight, as white as snow, shone on the shimmering Uchiha clan territory, adding a touch of tranquility to this peaceful scene.

In the courtyard of the Uchiha clan's residence, several figures sat around a stove, a steaming teapot bubbling over the flames. These people, who should have been enjoying the beautiful scenery under the flowers and moon, were instead sitting cross-legged, eyes closed, meditating, except for Uchiha Eimi, who had a smile on her face.

"Phew~"

Uchiha Eimi rested her chin on her hands, her lips slightly parted, gently blowing on the steaming hot tea in front of her. Her mature and alluring face remained smiling as she tilted her head, observing the three Uchiha members. Her long purple hair cascaded casually over her bare, fair shoulders, her beautiful eyes held a hint of longing, and her full red lips were slightly pouting, displaying an impatient expression. The purple diamond-shaped mark on her forehead glowed faintly in the firelight.

"Hehe, it looks like these little guys are about to succeed~"

Unaware of what was happening around her, Uchiha Yumi's black pupils slowly turned red as the flames rose, three mysterious tomoe rotating within them. The flow of chakra among the three Uchiha clan members was clearly visible in her eyes. Smiling, she whispered something before starting to bet on who would be the first to win.

Little Zhili~ Mom believes in you!

Seeing Uchiha Osamu's body trembling slightly, Uchiha Eimi couldn't help but cheer her on in her heart. After all, Osamu had undergone her secret training, so it wouldn't be too much for her to get first place, right?

Just as Uchiha Eimi focused her attention on Uchiha Osamu, she didn't expect that another dark horse would overtake her at that moment.

"Huh? You actually succeeded first?"

As Senju Itama's immense life force compressed, a purple diamond-shaped mark slowly appeared on her fair forehead. Sensing the aura of the Yin Seal, Uchiha Eimi's beautiful eyes were filled with astonishment. Logically speaking, Itama's chakra manipulation was the worst. Even if she could successfully train, it shouldn't be this fast.

After compressing all the excess life force within her body into the Yin Seal, the cold and beautiful Senju Itama slowly opened her eyes, her black pupils filled with surprise.

"Phew~ Thank you, Aunt Yongmei."

Feeling the dramatic changes happening to her body, her usually cold lips now curled into a wide smile. After calming her excited emotions, she looked at Uchiha Yumi before her, slightly surprised by the woman's bloodshot eyes, but without asking any questions. She simply stood up, bowed deeply to the beautiful woman before her, and said gratefully...

"If it weren't for Aunt Yongmei's dedicated teaching, I would never have been able to learn this secret skill."

"Oh dear~ We're all family, you're being too polite with the small room, Auntie's going to get angry~"

Upon hearing Senju Itama's respectful words, Uchiha Eimi feigned anger, pouting her rosy lips and placing her hands on her slender waist, looking adorably sullen.

Hehe~

Senju Itama gave a charming smile, touched her long, smooth hair, and let out a genuine laugh.

"I'll try this technique and see how it works!"

Seeing that Uchiha Osamu and Uchiha Hikaru were still meditating, Senju Itama, feeling quite pleased with herself, took the lead in practicing the Yin Seal. She formed hand seals and activated the Yin Seal's power.

Under her manipulation, the life energy within her body began to undergo miraculous changes. Senju Itama's figure slowly shrank as her physical energy decreased, only ceasing her manipulation when it reached a certain level.

Wow, you're so tall!

At this moment, Senju Itama's field of vision became much lower, and her clothes, which had been fitting perfectly just moments before, had all fallen to the ground. Feeling a chill, she shivered slightly, looked up at the smiling Uchiha Eimi, and exclaimed loudly. A clear, childlike voice rang out in the courtyard.

"Your voice has changed too?"

Before she could even react, Uchiha Eimi had already draped a blanket over her smooth, pink body, her beautiful eyes full of mockery. She pointed a long, slender finger at Senju Banza's forehead and spoke a reminder.

"Little room, this kind of behavior is rather indecent~"

"what!"

Only now did Senju Itama realize that she had returned to her initial state. Looking at her tender little hands, she confirmed that she had actually turned into a four or five-year-old. It wasn't a transformation jutsu, but rather a transformation from the inside out into a child.

"Isn't it amazing! When I first learned how to do it, I could play with it all day long!"

Seeing the bewildered Senju Itama, Uchiha Eimi, having been through similar experiences, smiled and said to her...

Hehe, I can now unlock women of all ages, Gintoki is so lucky~

Clearly, Senju Itama made the same mistake as her. The young Itama, in her child form, wore a look of longing on her face. Her delicate white hands formed hand seals once more. As her life energy surged, her body rapidly expanded, slowly growing from unremarkable to budding, and finally transforming into a surging torrent.

"Holy crap! How can it be so big!"

The toddler had vanished, replaced by a stunningly voluptuous black-haired beauty. She resembled a teenage Senju Itama, but possessed a more alluring charm. Her impressive bust instantly overshadowed the smiling Uchiha Eimi, freezing her smile on her face. Senju Itama, curiously exploring her future appearance, watched as the purple-haired woman's surprised exclamation threatened to escalate into a rage.

"You can't sneak in your own stuff in this small room!"

Uchiha Eimi narrowed her eyes, a crimson light bursting forth. Her strange tone left the mature version of Senju Itama completely bewildered. He struggled to support the heavy burden with his hands, and said with a bewildered expression,

"No, I just followed the normal procedure! Um... why is this thing so heavy?"

Although Senju Itama's figure was already far superior to that of her peers at her age, it wasn't to such an exaggerated degree. After the initial novelty wore off, she felt that those two lumps were a huge burden. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she couldn't help but continue to complain.

"Alright, alright, let's change back quickly. Auntie's heart isn't very strong."

Feeling a dull ache in her heart, Uchiha Eimi reached out to Senju Itama, signaling him to stop playing around, at least for now. If he wanted to show off, he should go home and do it alone in front of the mirror.

"Okay~"

After adjusting his age back to normal and getting dressed, Senju Itama sat down next to Uchiha Eimi and made the same face-slapping motion, waiting for the remaining two.

"Huh~ Not done yet?"

Not long after, Senju Itama felt a wave of drowsiness wash over her. Her eyelids drooped uncontrollably, and she yawned repeatedly. After burying her head on the table, she couldn't help but ask a question.

"You two are so close! You'd better keep it up!"

Uchiha Eimi's eyes were still bloodshot as she stared intently at the two women. With the aid of her Sharingan, she could clearly see that the two women in front of her were just one step away from consummating their relationship.

"Huh? It's out!"

As the two were chatting, Senju Itama, who had a stronger sense of perception, suddenly sensed a familiar aura. After exclaiming in surprise, he saw that almost simultaneously, a purple diamond-shaped mark appeared on the fair foreheads of Uchiha Osamu and Uchiha Hikaru. As the mark solidified, the auras of the two underwent a dramatic change.

"Phew~ I won!" *2

Uchiha Osamu and Uchiha Hikari opened their eyes at the same time, their beautiful black eyes filled with smugness. They both believed that they would be the first to learn the Yin Seal.

"Mother, who will succeed first?"

The two girls, pleasantly surprised, immediately noticed the mark on each other's foreheads. Uchiha Rinpoche, a strange competitive spirit rising within him, turned to his mother and asked...

"Madam Yongmei, please tell the truth and do not show favoritism because of family ties."

Uchiha Hikaru, who also possessed a strong competitive spirit, turned his head and slowly said...

"Well, you both succeeded at almost the same time, so I can't be sure who won."

Surprisingly, despite their age, the two were still incredibly competitive. Resigned, Uchiha Eimi decided to remain neutral.

Is it meaningful to compete for second place?

"No! This competition must have a winner!"

The two stubborn women shouted at Uchiha Eimi at the same time, as they had placed a bet and a winner had to be decided.

"Is second place really that important?"

Squeezing her chin and suppressing a laugh, Uchiha Eimi asked in a hesitant tone,

"Huh?" *2

Now it was the two girls' turn to be confused. How did they get second place?

"Hehe, you two are defeated opponents, I am the real number one!"

Having watched the show unfold for some time, Senju Itama made her grand entrance, hands on her hips, nose practically pointing to the sky, looking at the two competing women with a victor's air, and loudly proclaimed...

"Impossible! How could a stupid brat like you possibly succeed first?"

Uchiha Hikaru, who had always been at odds with Senju Itama, spoke first, his large eyes filled with doubt.

"That's right, Xiaojian, hurry up and wipe off the marks you drew on, stop causing trouble here."

Uchiha Osamu and Senju Itama were best friends for many years, but this time she couldn't continue to accommodate her, and her words were filled with distrust.

Oh no~ My best friend and I have a falling out, and it happened today!

"It's true, the smaller units were indeed one step ahead of you."

In the end, it was Uchiha Eimi who stepped forward and ended the conflict, announcing that the winner was Senju Itama.

"hateful!"

Uchiha Hikaru was so angry he gritted his teeth, never expecting to lose to this brat.

"Phew~ Koita, did you find some trick?"

Compared to the indignant Uchiha Hikaru, Uchiha Osamu appeared more rational, generously acknowledging the opponent's victory before curiously asking Senju Itama a question.

"Well, there's no secret to it. I just feel that cultivating is very smooth, like..."

Upon hearing this, Senju Itama stroked his chin, his once childish face now showing a strange expression, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"What does it look like?"

Seeing Senju Itama's expression, Uchiha Osamu's curiosity grew even stronger, and he quickly asked a question. Uchiha Hikaru, who was standing to the side, also pricked up his ears, ready to eavesdrop.

"This technique seems to have been tailor-made for me; it runs without any obstruction."

After saying that, Senju Itama scratched her head and smiled sheepishly. Only then did everyone realize that the purple mark on her forehead did indeed suit her well.
