Chapter 90: The System That Gives You Whatever You Think Of

~8 min read 1,501 words

Trembling, Uchiha Gin placed his fingers under the nose and mouth of Itama Senju, who was foaming at the mouth, and discovered that there was breath going in but none coming out; Uchiha Gin's heart instantly went cold.

He hurriedly stripped off the stinking brat's upper garment and pressed his ear against the soft, tender chest to listen carefully; only after hearing a faint heartbeat did Uchiha Gin let out a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he had just been scared unconscious. A relieved Uchiha Gin dressed Itama Senju, cleaned the filth from his nose and mouth, carried him to the bed in the bedroom, and left him to fend for himself.

"The vitality of the Senju clan should be very tenacious, right!"

Uchiha Gin thought, feeling a bit guilty as he gently closed the door.

Looking at the Three-Tails doll in his hand, Uchiha Gin sighed. It was a good thing he had bought a gift; he just hoped this stinking brat wouldn't be looking to die or acting miserable when he woke up tomorrow.

After hiding the gift he had bought, Uchiha Gin felt physically and mentally exhausted, so he went to take a bath first. After washing, he burned some incense and bowed to the void in honor of the Uchiha clan's ancestor, Indra.

Everything was ready, save for the drawing of the prize. Entering the system space and looking at the Heartsteel Orb settled from the chessboard earlier that day, Uchiha Gin rubbed his hands together, stepped forward cautiously with a nervous heart, and muttered to himself,

"Watch me, the Emperor of Luck, possess this! Open for me!"

Feeling that the moment had arrived, Uchiha Gin struck the orb on the left without hesitation. A dazzling golden light enveloped that Heartsteel Orb. Seeing the golden light, Uchiha Gin's heart rate accelerated and his breathing became rapid; was he really about to take off?

【Gold Brick *5】 Universal currency, can be used for real-world consumption.

WTF! The golden light slowly dissipated, and five substantial gold bricks were lined up on the ground. Uchiha Gin almost couldn't catch his breath; his eyes turned red as he gritted his teeth, barely calming his irritable mood.

Turning his head to look at the other Heartsteel Orb, Uchiha Gin thought,

"Isn't there still one more? Let's just consider the previous one a warm-up; this one is bound to yield good stuff!"

Pressing his palms together, Uchiha Gin bowed deeply and piously to the only remaining orb; he left his fate in its hands!

"Open!"

Having steeled himself, Uchiha Gin remained calm. He reached out and pressed the orb. A blue light instantly enveloped the entire space. After a few breaths, the blue light transformed into two light orbs that floated quietly in front of Uchiha Gin. He opened the first one at random,

【Hyuga Clan Constitution *1】 After use, gain a trace of Hyuga clan bloodline; attributes will be slightly improved.

??? The Hyuga clan?

Seeing the first reward, Uchiha Gin was left stunned on the spot. Having traveled through time for so long without ever seeing a member of the Hyuga clan, how could he possibly draw a Hyuga constitution? Besides, didn't the Hyuga bloodline require the Byakugan?

His own pair of eyes were authentic Sharingan; even if they were cousins once, they were completely unrelated by now.

Temporarily putting this strange reward aside, Uchiha Gin opened the second light orb,

As the faint light dissipated, a few characters slowly emerged. Sharp-eyed Uchiha Gin saw the words "Wood Style" written in front and was so excited he almost jumped up.

His hands were shaking at this moment, and his brain had already begun to imagine the beautiful scene of himself clapping his hands together to clad a Wood Golem in Susanoo.

As Uchiha Gin's breathing grew increasingly rapid, the characters behind also slowly emerged,

【Wood Style: Four-Pillar House】 Capable of instantly creating a complex wooden residence; quite convenient to use.

??????

I can't take it anymore, guys; what kind of junk is this system giving me?

Uchiha Gin rubbed his reddened eyes hard and checked from several different angles to confirm that the ninjutsu in front of him was not misread.

It was indeed the Wood Style ninjutsu used by Yamato, who would be known as the "Little Hashirama" in the future; its main function: building houses.

Uchiha Gin pinched the point between his eyes and found a reason to comfort himself,

"It's fine, it's fine. It's still Wood Style, right? It just so happens I don't need to hire anyone to fix the backyard fence, right?"

Forcibly convincing himself, Uchiha Gin beckoned into the air and integrated these two rewards into his body. In an instant, he felt a warm current surge into his eyes. His vision, even without the Sharingan activated, had improved significantly. It seemed that whether it was Uchiha or Hyuga, their bloodlines possessed the trait of strengthening eyesight.

The ninjutsu Wood Style: Four-Pillar House was also engraved in Uchiha Gin's mind. There were no restrictions; it could be used without the Senju clan's bloodline.

Leaving the system space while grumbling, the "richly rewarded" Uchiha Gin first went to the backyard and attempted to activate the ninjutsu based on his memory,

"Wood Style: Four-Pillar House!"

As his chakra circulated, several wooden beams broke through the soil in the backyard. Following Uchiha Gin's mental design, they arranged themselves neatly. Several logs moved in an orderly fashion, horizontally and vertically, circling the backyard before finally locking firmly together. A row of exquisite fencing was thus born.

Looking at the fence, which was no different from his mental design, Uchiha Gin nodded with satisfaction. Although it wasn't as detailed as the "Kakashi-style" Earth Wall with a dog head carved on it, it was aesthetically pleasing and elegant.

Clapping his hands and humming a little tune, Uchiha Gin returned home. He first checked on Itama Senju and found that the other had recovered to normal and was drooling while fast asleep.

"It's good to be a kid; you can be carefree."

Sighing at the difficulty of growing up, Uchiha Gin turned and lay down on the sofa, falling into a deep sleep.

The next day, Uchiha Gin got up early, made breakfast, devoured one portion himself, left another on the table, and went to work after tidying up.

Walking on the main road of the clan grounds, he passed clansmen heading to work one after another. Recalling the series of events from yesterday, Uchiha Gin's mind was a bit chaotic.

He had originally just wanted to understand what had happened during the clan massacre six years ago, but he hadn't expected to accidentally stumble upon his imprisoned grandfather, who had filled him in on several huge secrets.

The original owner had originally possessed a Mangekyo, but it was gouged out by his hypocritical uncle; the uncle had killed his parents to seize the position of clan head, and his own eyes were about to be born—if he took them back, he could take off and become the clan head above ten thousand.

As it turned out, before he could even process these secrets, he ran into Uchiha Fenghuo, a former underling of the original owner's father, who recounted the events he had personally witnessed, making the words of the grandfather locked in the dungeon lose all credibility.

"Can there be fewer dark-story tropes? What happened to the promised lighthearted, funny story?"

Uchiha Gin rubbed his curly hair fiercely and couldn't help but complain,

"Cousin! Where are you going so early?"

The boisterous Izuna Uchiha interrupted Uchiha Gin's train of thought and pulled him back to reality.

"Where else? To work. I've already become a pathetic adult. Izuna, cherish your happy times now."

Sighing, Uchiha Gin patted the small, spiky head of the silly-looking Izuna Uchiha in front of him. Did all Uchihas who looked like this act so silly when they were kids?

"I don't understand. Anyway, I don't have to work when I grow up; my family has money!"

Izuna Uchiha impatiently swatted away the hand of this stinking adult and said proudly, puffing out his chest.

"Bang! ~"

Uchiha Gin's classic, righteous knuckle-rap.

"That's why I hate self-righteous brats."

Shaking his slightly aching hand, Uchiha Gin ignored Izuna Uchiha, who was squatting on the ground in a state of self-imposed isolation, and walked toward his post.

"Lord Uchiha Gin, did you see that old jailer?"

Just as Uchiha Gin sat down on his office chair and before he could even take out his teacup to brew tea, Lu Cha Uchiha's head poked through the door crack and asked cautiously.

"I saw him. Thank you so much for your help, Brother Lu Cha."

For the highly efficient Lu Cha Uchiha, Uchiha Gin did not skimp on praise,

"With such great talent, Brother Lu Cha, how can you remain stagnant in a guard position? Why not join my ranks? Only then can you spread your wings and achieve great things!"
