My technique is famously good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Gin, having been pushed out, shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a shy kid. We're both grown men, why all the covering up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After about an hour, Senju Itama, wrapped up tightly, poked his head out. His face tightened when he saw Uchiha Gin still sitting in the living room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You finally came out. How can a kid take so long to bathe? I was about to fall asleep.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Gin stood up while yawning, holding the bottle of hair dye in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't come over here yet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Senju Itama gripped the door tightly to prevent the other from entering. Uchiha Gin, feeling a bit mischievous, leaned against the bathroom door and said teasingly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you up to something bad, kid? You should take care of your body at such a young age.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Uchiha Gin increased the force on his hand, the bathroom door was pushed open instantly. The stark-naked Senju Itama tumbled out. Before he could even see the details, the other had already covered his vital parts with both hands, looking at him with a blushing face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So what if you're not wearing anything? When I was your age, I used to run around the streets bare-assed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Senju Itama's naked body, Uchiha Gin joked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shameless!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Senju Itama, his whole body as red as if he were in a sauna, shouted at the top of his lungs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, alright, I'll leave the hair dye here for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that the kid was getting a bit anxious, Uchiha Gin didn't continue to tease him; he put down the hair dye and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I couldn't tell, but your skin is actually quite fair, kid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just before leaving, Uchiha Gin turned his head to drop that line, which earned him a bottle of shampoo thrown his way, which he dodged with a laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After going out and circling to the back wall, Uchiha Gin reinforced the fence again. The few square meters of \"backyard\" were now officially established; he would be grinding skills here in the days to come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing with the backyard, seeing the sky gradually darken, Uchiha Gin returned to the house to wait for the middle of the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, Senju Itama had already put on his clothes, and his black-and-white hair had been dyed a single color. Uchiha Gin nodded repeatedly; with his hair color looking more pleasing, the kid actually looked quite delicate and pretty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This way, no one should notice you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps angry at Uchiha Gin's earlier actions, Senju Itama turned his head away, pouting and not saying a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a boring kid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Gin, whose mind was elsewhere, didn't care and, after giving a few instructions, lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Senju Itama looked at the curly-haired Uchiha with a complex expression, his eyes shifting as if thinking about something, before finally getting up silently to return to the bedroom to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the middle of the night, Uchiha Gin, who had been fast asleep, opened his eyes again. After confirming that the person in the bedroom was asleep, he tiptoed to the backyard and stood in the open space, waiting for the refresh to arrive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tonight, dark clouds covered the moon again. Uchiha Gin's residence was far from the settlement, surrounded only by cliffs and forests; one had to pass through the forest to reach the Uchiha clan's residential area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A breeze blew through the forest, making a rustling sound. Uchiha Gin, his whole body tense, suddenly felt the atmosphere around him congeal—a familiar feeling surged in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ding-ling~\" Amidst the rustling leaves, a faint bell sound came. Relying on his keen senses, Uchiha Gin locked onto the direction immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A figure wearing a conical hat and a black cloak with red clouds slowly emerged from the void. The right hand, painted with black nail polish, slightly lifted the hat, and a pair of scarlet eyes looked at him without any emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Itachi Uchiha again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having suffered at his hands twice, Uchiha Gin reacted immediately. He activated his Sharingan, the tomoe in his right eye began to spin rapidly, and his body's chakra poured into it crazily as if it were free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Amaterasu]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Striking first, black flames appeared out of thin air on Uchiha Gin's chest, showing significant improvement over the lighter-sized black flames from last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having been on the receiving end for the past few times, Uchiha Gin wanted to see what would happen if he injured or even defeated the NPC that released the skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ignoring the raging black flames on his chest, the refreshed Itachi Uchiha calmly took off his hat, his eyes having turned into two shuriken-shaped Mangekyo Sharingan at some point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, the Amaterasu, which had been intensifying, seemed to misfire. With the appearance of Itachi Uchiha's Mangekyo, the flames were extinguished as if drenched by heavy rain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could even be shocked, Uchiha Gin quickly shifted his eyes elsewhere, avoiding eye contact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking down at the ground, Uchiha Gin saw that the originally green grass had turned into a transparent lake at some point. The surface of the lake reflected his own image like a mirror, and in the sky within the reflection, a blood-red full moon hung resolutely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing this, Uchiha Gin cursed inwardly; he had fallen for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Genjutsu: Tsukuyomi]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he was uncontrollably hung up by a cross, Uchiha Gin knew that tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sighed, looking at the Itachi Uchiha that had surrounded him once again, and his mentality completely collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, come on! Don't spare me just because I'm a delicate flower!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, the sound of dense blades and cutting boards resonated throughout the genjutsu space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Gin, who had spent 72 hours in the genjutsu space, finally welcomed his release the moment the countdown hit zero.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the genjutsu space shattered, the surroundings returned to their familiar state, and the figure of Itachi Uchiha vanished without a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he had spent 72 hours of torture in Tsukuyomi, only an instant had passed outside. Lying on the ground, Uchiha Gin had a splitting headache, and his Sharingan, having been overstimulated, voluntarily entered a dormant state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After two Tsukuyomi experiences, Uchiha Gin discovered that every time he was hit by Tsukuyomi, his left eye's ocular power would increase, and his mastery of the Sharingan would become more mature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Backyard daily refresh random skill [Genjutsu: Tsukuyomi], obtained Tsukuyomi Fragment *4\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Tsukuyomi Fragment (5\u002F40), collect 40 pieces to synthesize Genjutsu: Tsukuyomi, learnable by Mangekyo Sharingan skill]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the system prompt, Uchiha Gin was greatly surprised; he had actually obtained 4 Tsukuyomi fragments this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it just pure luck, or are rewards calculated based on combat evaluation?\" Uchiha Gin speculated in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously with the system prompt, the exhaustion all over Uchiha Gin's body was swept away, and his brain, traumatized by Tsukuyomi, gradually cleared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His right eye, which had been bleeding from releasing Amaterasu, also recovered as before; all negative physical buffs were cleared by the system with one click.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He climbed up easily, felt his body's state, and after confirming there was nothing abnormal, Uchiha Gin quietly returned to the house and lay on the sofa, falling asleep silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Gin, who hadn't dreamed in a long time, once again dreamed of several strange fragments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a pitch-black hospital room, a young boy lay on a hospital bed, his eyes bandaged, his expression numb, being manipulated at will by someone like a puppet. A middle-aged man in his forties or fifties stroked his head, seemingly saying something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Gin could only watch from afar, unable to hear anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged man looked at the boy with a complex expression. At this moment, the hospital room door was pushed open, and a young girl walked in. She was a bit younger than the boy; upon seeing him, she seemed very agitated, bowing her head by the boy's bed and weeping bitterly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he wanted to continue watching, his entire consciousness was pushed out by a pair of ruthless hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opening his eyes again, it was already the next morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scratching his head and recalling the strange, headless, and tailless dream from last night, Uchiha Gin began his ninja-world corporate-slave life after washing up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He left some money for Senju Itama, who had already dyed his hair black, telling him to solve his own food and clothing problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his hair dyed, he was not at all conspicuous when thrown into a crowd of Uchihas, so there was no need to worry about his safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't run around. If you run, I'll go catch your brother.\" Uchiha Gin didn't forget to put some pressure on the kid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Got it, got it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Senju Itama looked speechlessly at the curly-haired Uchiha who was trying to threaten him. Having thought things through, he wasn't stupid; was there any point in trying to fool him with that kind of excuse?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's with that look like you're looking at an idiot?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling looked down upon, a \"#\" vein popped out on Uchiha Gin's forehead. He stretched out an angry hand, preparing to give the kid a righteous flick on the forehead, but the now-wary Senju Itama easily dodged it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Senju Itama making faces at him, Uchiha Gin narrowed his dead-fish eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt more and more that this kid was becoming a bit different, but he couldn't quite put his finger on where.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1631,"2026-06-25T11:57:15.904Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","9cdd160cf1592696e2ac7482ccf3fc1b6d9e77da67ae6789fe16e4d62896095f","konoha-the-thirty-year-old-uchiha-has-no-motivat-chapter-43","konoha-the-thirty-year-old-uchiha-has-no-motivat-chapter-41",603,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fkonoha-the-thirty-year-old-uchiha-has-no-motivat-cover.jpg"]
