Naruto: Neurolink Transmigration

Chapter 7: Learning, Training, and AFKing

I returned to my home—yeah, my house, which is way too big for someone living alone. Thinking about it, maybe I should find someone to keep me company. Well, I'll think about it later; it's not like it's completely lonely. The house has guards, after all.

You all might wonder why it seems like most Uchiha aren't short on money. The answer lies in their strength. Most Uchiha can easily win 1v1 situations in their class.

"If you ever find yourself in a 1v1 against an Uchiha, consider yourself unlucky."

That's what people say when talking about the Uchiha. At least for those who have awakened their 2-tomoe Sharingan.

Why do I say that's one of the reasons the Uchiha are wealthy? Simple—because in war, the Uchiha have a massive advantage:

1v1 = win.

1v2 = trade kill.

2v3 = victory.

And they complete missions with minimal casualties. In short, they complete 180% more missions than other clans.

In the most desperate situations, the Uchiha sometimes explode with extraordinary power. You see, they have the Sharingan. When a Sharingan user is under extreme pressure—like losing their teammates—40% of Uchiha will experience an evolution of their eyes.

Maybe you didn't know this, but most Uchiha tend to look down on others as if everyone else is weaker than them. Yet, in extreme situations where their comrades are in danger, Uchiha are firmly against running away.

"Uchiha is the strongest clan. We protect the weak."

And if somehow they fail to protect the weak, they will feel like they've failed as an Uchiha and enter a berserk state.

"You kill my dude, I'll kill you too."

A family full of pride—the lion sin of pride.

Because of this, most Konoha ninjas prefer to be under Uchiha leadership during wartime rather than anyone else. At least they know that if they die on a mission or in battle under Uchiha command, their deaths will be avenged.

The Uchiha's soul doesn't come from the Sharingan but from their pride and love. Don't misunderstand the pride of the Uchiha. Most Uchiha are closed-off because they don't want to form deep feelings for anyone. They're too sentimental.

I remember the words of my father and mother during their lifetime...

"When a man learns to love, he must bear the risk of hatred."

"Through love and loss, we ignite."

"Passion is our power, and our loss."

"Our strength is forged in love and tempered by loss."

"To protect is our duty; to avenge, is our promise."

Yeah, it might sound a bit much to say to kids, but those words are engraved in the hearts of many Uchiha children. It has to be acknowledged that young Obito was the perfect representation of an Uchiha.

He sacrificed himself for his friend and cast a genjutsu over the entire world just for Rin. He was a perfect Uchiha—like Sasuke. In the anime, you could even say Shisui and Itachi wiped out their clan out of love for Konoha. But let's be honest—they were idiots.

At least Itachi gave up his world for Sasuke. But Shisui? He handed his world over to Danzo!

What a joke, man.

--- I finally arrived at my residence. ---

"Neu, help me learn the Shadow Clone Jutsu."

---- According to the scroll, you just need to perform the hand signs and channel your chakra accordingly.

"How much chakra do I need?"

---- Half of yours. Leave the chakra control to me.

"Alright."

Tora Kage

I performed the necessary hand signs, and suddenly, my shadow clone appeared.

"Huh, doesn't this mean I don't need to learn the jutsu myself?"

---- I can help you perform simple ninjutsu, but it'll be difficult in combat. You know, it's still something you need to learn... or rather, your clone needs to learn.

I looked at my clone and grinned.

"Hehe, buoy."

"Hey, idiot! Why are you staring at me like that?!" my clone snapped at me.

"Stop spouting nonsense! Does Neu get duplicated too?"

My clone went silent for a moment.

"Yeah, I have one too... but this one doesn't have an interface, just floating text answering my questions."

"Well, at least you have it. You're gonna need it. Really need it."

I tossed him the Shadow Clone Jutsu scroll.

"Learn this and spam it until you get it right. Once you've achieved a 100% success rate, you can move on to fire ninjutsu with another clone."

I performed another hand sign, and with Neu's help, I created two more clones.

"One of you will learn fire ninjutsu, and the other will train with lightning techniques. Remember, don't waste chakra! I'm off to sleep and train tomorrow!"

I glanced back at my clones, their faces darkened with frustration, as I walked away and left them to their tasks.
