349. Chapter 343: Three Elements of Uchiha Gin's Characteristics

Konoha Year 13

Morning.

"I'm going to work."

"Wait! Take the lunch bento."

Uchiha Gin, who was about to go out to work, stopped his steps, scratched his head, turned around, and looked at the Q-version Senju Itama, who was holding the bento box and had an increasingly wifely taste. After thinking about it, he reached out and took it.

"What's the dish?"

Senju Itama, who heard this question, rolled his eyes. If he wasn't worried that this curly-haired guy wouldn't eat well at work at noon, he wouldn't have gotten up before dawn to cook, like Uchiha Hikari, that stinky woman, sleeping until he woke up naturally—isn't that fragrant?

"Sweet and sour fish."

Uchiha Gin, who got the satisfactory answer, nodded, then pushed the door and went out. At the same time, the girl's soft, glutinous voice came to his ears.

"Come back early after work."

"Got it~"

After Uchiha Gin left, Senju Itama, wearing a small apron, stretched, and his fair little face carried a thick sense of motivation.

"Hoo... time to start work!"

After saying that, he turned around and began to tidy up the clothes discarded on the sofa, preparing to wash them. Even for the strawberry underwear that gave off an unknown smell, he still held it in his hand without any disgust. Everything was so natural.

"Another peaceful day~"

Uchiha Gin, steadily carrying the bento, walked on the streets of Konoha with a pace that didn't recognize his relatives. The once solid dirt road had long been replaced by a brand-new cement road, adding a few modern colors to the street.

Although it was early winter, the shops on both sides of the street had opened for business early. The office workers going to work were all full of energy, ready to dedicate their youth to Konoha at any time.

Not far away, the Konoha city management team, wearing dark blue uniforms, had also entered the working state early, starting to patrol the street. Uchiha Gin recognized the young man in the lead; it was the cheap second uncle of Little Tuan Tuan. Looking at his full mental state, he must be very passionate about this job.

"Should I find a few 'dage' tonight to have a drink and have fun?"

Uchiha Gin sighed at the hard-won comfortable time, and by the way, thought about who to find to have fun with tonight.

"Gin-san! No rest today?"

Just then, a voice interrupted Uchiha Gin's thoughts. He turned his head, looked at the middle-aged man with blond hair poking his head out of a shop, and a lazy smile hung on the corner of his mouth.

"Rest? There's no time for rest in our line of work. I also want to give myself a vacation, but the conditions don't allow it."

Uchiha Gin shook his head at these words. The number of Heartsteel treasure chests refreshed daily, and they wouldn't accumulate to the next day.

"Have you had breakfast?"

The blond middle-aged man smiled, pointed to the pancake emitting heat in his hand, and sent an invitation to Uchiha Gin.

"What kind of sauce is smeared on it?"

"Sweet bean sauce."

"Give me a portion!"

Uchiha Gin, who accepted the feeding, smiled and said goodbye to the blond middle-aged man. When he was about to leave, as if he had thought of something, he turned his head and asked.

"Are you used to it after moving here?"

"Konoha is pretty good, it's just that seafood isn't as cheap as in the Land of Waves."

The blond middle-aged man with a smile in his eyes gave the answer quickly. Having devoted many years of hard work to Konoha's construction, he had only recently moved his whole family to the Land of Fire, which could be considered a second-generation immigrant.

Relying on the money he had saved from working as a concrete worker for many years, he bought several shops at an internal price and had lived the life of a leisurely landlord grandpa ever since.

"That's good, see you later~"

There wasn't much time left before work, and Uchiha Gin, who didn't want to fail to clock in, waved goodbye to the blond middle-aged man from the Land of Waves and continued to move toward his workplace.

"Gin-san~ Good morning!"

"Gin-san, give me a fresh cucumber!"

"Gin-san, freshly steamed buns, have a taste!"

Along the way, many merchants who were familiar with Uchiha Gin poked their heads out and stuffed the products in their shops into his arms.

"Ouch, how can I be embarrassed..."

"Uh... this one is exempt!"

Holding the small snacks fed by kind-hearted people, Uchiha Gin refused the thong handed over by the underwear shop owner very moved.

He was afraid they would misunderstand.

"Everyone is really getting more and more enthusiastic~"

Uchiha Gin gnawed on the small cucumber and gave a high evaluation to the residents of Konoha. At the same time, a building emitting a gloomy and terrifying aura appeared in his eyes.

【Konoha Prison】

"Beep! Clocked in for 2920 days~"

Accompanied by the pleasant clocking-in sound, Uchiha Gin nodded with satisfaction, successfully maintaining his super-long clocking-in record. If there were a sign-in system, it would be even better, but it's a pity, it's a pity~

"There must be a place for me in this year's model worker!"

Is it a distortion of human nature, or a loss of morality, that actually made Uchiha Gin, who had always been lazy, fall in love with work?

"Gin-sama, isn't it a shadow clone today?"

The guard at the door looked at Uchiha Gin, who was full of self-satisfaction, and spoke in a killjoy way to reveal the ugly behavior of someone who usually enslaved shadow clones.

"How did you kid see it?"

Uchiha Gin looked at this guard with some surprise. His transformation jutsu could be said to have no flaws, and even that white-haired Senju Tobirama couldn't see any clues. He hadn't expected to fall into the hands of a plain-looking gatekeeper grandpa today. Could it be that the other party was also a Konoha sweeping monk like him?

"Your shadow clone wouldn't bring this."

The guard pointed to the bento box in Uchiha Gin's hand.

"You scared me."

It turned out that the love bento prepared by Senju Itama had exposed his true identity. Uchiha Gin shook his head with some regret and handed the cucumber he had just obtained to this attentive guard.

"Have it."

"Uh... thanks."

Speechlessly squeezing the small cucumber in his hand, the guard raised his head to look at Uchiha Gin's departing back, but there was more doubt in his heart.

Why hasn't Gin-sama aged yet?

With the development of technology, the torches on the walls of the prison corridor had long been replaced by light bulbs. However, in order to cater to the gloomy atmosphere of the prison, the bright light had been deliberately adjusted to a dim, faint light.

The cells on both sides had also undergone earth-shaking changes. They were no longer the broken large dormitories covered with thatch, but clean and tidy single rooms, making many habitual thieves linger and forget to return.

"Do the real business first~"

After arriving at his post, Uchiha Gin put Senju Itama's love bento in the office, then strolled all the way to the detention point for serious criminals.

"Gin-sama, good morning!"

The jailer on duty saw Uchiha Gin and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

"As usual today, don't come in if you hear any sound."

The jailer on duty nodded, didn't ask much, and directly opened the gate leading to the serious criminal area.

"Let me think..."

Walking alone in the cold corridor, the cell doors on both sides were all pasted with sealing charms, emitting dim light. Uchiha Gin touched his chin, thinking about who he should find to perform a wave today.

"Hey, you curly-haired guy, stand still for this grandpa!"

Just as Uchiha Gin was racking his brains, someone just sent himself to the door.

"Coming, coming~"

Hearing the roar, Uchiha Gin's eyes lit up, and then he walked over with a smile.

He saw a black-skinned young man standing in the cell, with light yellow long hair draped behind his head, his expression very arrogant, his arms crossed, his face full of flesh like a melon seller selling raw melons, his strong muscles knotted, and his whole body radiating a tyrannical aura.

"Call your manager here!"

At a glance, it was an excellent farm tool specialty of the Land of Lightning. Uchiha Gin didn't care about his impolite tone, but instead looked at this black "dage" in front of him with great interest. He was very curious, clearly it was a peaceful period now, how did this foreigner get into the prison?

"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a handsome guy?"

Being stared at by Uchiha Gin with the eyes of looking at goods for a long time, the black "dage" said impatiently.

He had only arrived in Konoha yesterday. He had just beaten up a few thieves who wanted to steal his wallet on the street, and as a result, he was pressed down by a group of red-eyed people wearing dark blue uniforms and big-brimmed hats, and was confusedly thrown into prison.

"Dage, you look unfamiliar, are you new?"

"Blah blah! Hurry up and call your manager, I want to go out!"

"I'm just a small jailer, I don't have such great authority~"

Facing the furious black "dage", Uchiha Gin spread his hands and showed a regretful expression, but combined with his lazy dead-fish eyes, it looked like mockery no matter how you looked at it.

"Damn it!"

Uchiha Gin's unconsciously annoying appearance made the young man in the cell itch with hatred. In a rage, his whole body was instantly covered with blue electric arcs.

【Lightning Release Chakra Mode】

Seeing this scene, a flash of surprise flashed in Uchiha Gin's eyes. He was a bit familiar with this move. An ordinary black "dage" absolutely couldn't learn it. The guy in front of him definitely had a great background.

"Boom!"

The next moment, a large hand with thunder pierced the charm on the cell door and tore down the sturdy gate. The strong black "dage" walked out with a face full of unkindness, his gaze locked on Uchiha Gin, who had a strange face.

"Do you know that you are committing a crime?"

What you are poking is not the cell door, you kid are poking the spine of that white-haired Senju Tobirama.

Breaking out of prison is a serious crime. Even if foreigners have diplomatic immunity, they cannot disregard Konoha's laws like this.

"This grandpa doesn't care about so much. I am the Raikage's student. How dare you Konoha treat me like this? You didn't even listen to the explanation and just threw me in."

The young black "dage" was actually very restrained. When he was thrown into prison yesterday, he was very cooperative and didn't resist much. But a night passed, and not only did no one pay attention to him, but a very annoying curly-haired jailer came.

His little violent temper suddenly came up. In his village, he was also a master who was under a few people and above ten thousand people. Where had he ever suffered such grievances?

"I express my sympathy for your encounter, but remember to settle the repair costs for the cell door when you are released from prison~"

Facing the young black "dage"'s accusation, Uchiha Gin expressed sympathy, but one thing is one thing. Even if you are the Raikage's apprentice, you have to pay the maintenance costs for the cell door.

"Hoo... sorry Master, I'm going to break the rules!"

Influenced by Uchiha Gin's self-contained mockery aura, the young black "dage" raised his sand-pot-sized fist, his eyes carrying a trace of struggle, but the fist wind was very fierce.

"Detected that the host is in battle, Heartsteel treasure chest starts to accumulate..."

At the same time, the familiar BGM sounded in Uchiha Gin's mind. This is exactly what he wanted~

"Look, everyone, that new greenhorn actually dares to provoke Uchiha Gin."

The sound of the black "dage" violently tearing down the door also attracted the attention of jailmates in other cells. The old people who had been in the cell for a long time looked at the young black "dage" who was confronting Uchiha Gin, and there was no worry on their faces, but full of mockery.

"Rumble~"

The young black "dage"'s fist carried a faint thunder sound. Uchiha Gin's fluffy curly hair was blown left and right by the fist wind, but his expression remained unchanged, which made the young man who was throwing the punch feel very confused.

Can't even dodge my slowest punch, is this guy really a ninja?

"Oh?"

Uchiha Gin, who could feel that the young man's punch was empty, had doubts in his heart, but the process still had to be followed. So he raised his fists and "dangerously" took this punch.

"Boom!"

Only hearing a loud noise, Uchiha Gin, who was "resisting stubbornly," was instantly sent flying, hitting the wall heavily. After sliding to the ground, he knelt on one knee, a trace of scarlet oozing from the corner of his mouth, his eyes carrying an unyielding look, staring dead at the young black "dage" who maintained the punching posture.

"Cough cough cough... as expected of the future star of the Cloud Village, the power of this punch is not inferior to the First Raikage..."

Uchiha Gin clutched his chest, coughed a few times weakly, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a pale face, and his tone carried an unyielding but this time convinced tone.

"Ah?"

The young black "dage" looked at his fist blankly. He clearly hadn't used any force, just wanted to scare this annoying jailer. Where had he thought that the curly-haired guy would fly so far?

I haven't used any force yet, why did he fall down?

Could it be that he had realized the dark energy that even his big brother hadn't realized?

"Are you okay?"

The young black "dage", who was a bit at a loss, hurriedly ran over, his face full of flesh carrying a look of worry, wanting to see if Uchiha Gin's injuries were serious.

He didn't come to Konoha to cause trouble, but carried a mission assigned by his big brother. If he messed up the mission, whether he could go back was one thing, but his two violent brothers would definitely blow his dog head off.

"Cough cough cough... I, Uchiha Gin, would like to call you the strongest in taijutsu~"

Ignoring the young black "dage"'s sudden concern, Uchiha Gin finished the lines of the process by himself.

The young man who was on his way, after hearing the four words Uchiha Gin, suddenly stopped his steps. The big face that was just worried was now strangely distorted, and a pair of ox eyes were wide open.

"You are Uchiha Gin?"

"Huh?"

I think I haven't provoked you black "dage"s all these years...

"Ding! Host failed, obtained Heart Energy * 10"

The familiar prompt sound rang out just right. Uchiha Gin didn't pretend anymore, stood up like nothing happened, patted the dust on his body, licked the scarlet at the corner of his mouth, swallowed the tomato sauce into his stomach, and then raised his head, asking in confusion.

"I don't seem to know you, 'dage'~"

"Wait!"

The young black "dage" with a frown immediately started rummaging through his pockets, and finally found a crumpled note, carefully reading the description on it.

"Curly hair OK, dead-fish eyes OK, annoying... also OK! It's you!"

After a simple confirmation, the black "dage" who reached a conclusion threw the note in his hand, and performed a fierce tiger landing style toward Uchiha Gin, who was full of confusion. The hard cement floor was smashed into a visible big pit.
