"I'm back."
Obito walked to the entrance, changed his shoes, and told his grandmother in a cheerful voice that he was back.
"Hey, is grandma taking a walk outside?" Obito was a little confused when he didn't get a response.
Usually, whenever he called out, "I'm back," grandma would either come to the door to pick him up or respond to Obito with her voice.
When Obito walked in, he found that it was not that his grandmother was away, but that there were guests coming and his grandmother was entertaining them, so she did not respond immediately.
"Obito, welcome home." Grandma said with a kind smile.
Obito looked curiously at the guest sitting in the living room, a middle-aged man with brown hair and wearing dark blue clothes.
Although he didn't know who it was, Obito was sure that it was a ninja from their Uchiha clan, because the brown-haired middle-aged man not only wore a ninja forehead protector, but also had the Uchiha round fan pattern on the back of his clothes.
"Obito, you're here just in time. Say hello to Uncle Yashiro." Grandma reminded.
"Hello, Uncle Yashiro." Obito honestly followed his grandmother's instructions and greeted the guest.
Uchiha Yashiro smiled and praised: "Obito, you are very good."
"Among the Uchiha of your age, you are one of the best."
"Hehe, it's okay." Obito scratched his head and laughed, but he didn't feel too bad.
Because he didn't even know the Uchiha Yashiro in front of him, he naturally wouldn't get too emotional because of the compliments from a stranger. She wasn't his grandmother or Nohara Rin and Mu Yue.
"By the way, grandma, I got first place in the practical exam!" Obito couldn't wait to tell his grandma the good news.
"Well, our Obito is really awesome. He will definitely become an excellent ninja after graduation." Grandma smiled and touched Obito's head and praised.
When Uchiha Yashiro heard what Obito said, he nodded secretly in his heart, thinking that Obito was indeed worth his trip.
Although being number one in the grade does not necessarily mean that you will be very strong in the future, it does prove that you are very good at this stage.
He remembered that there was an Uchiha named Tetsuka who was the same age as Obito. His strength was quite good for his age, but he had never been first in the grade.
"Keep it up like this and work hard to become a ninja capable of inheriting the glory of the Uchiha clan." said Uchiha Yashiro.
After saying that, Uchiha Yashiro put some nutritional supplements he had brought on the table, and then counted out 50,000 taels of silver and put them on the table.
"We Uchiha are never stingy with outstanding members of our clan. This is a reward for your achievements." said Uchiha Yashiro.
He definitely didn't come here to chat with Grandma Obito. Although the Uchiha are more or less related, except for direct relatives, a normal Uchiha would not waste time chatting with the elderly.
He came to Obito's house just to reward Obito.
This is a policy within the Uchiha clan. If a clan member's strength far exceeds that of his peers, he will be rewarded.
Obito should have received this reward during the final exam.
But the Uchiha high-ups didn't assign anyone to keep a special eye on the performance of the ninja school. Obito only had his grandmother, and among his peers he was only familiar with one other person, Uchiha Shisui. He had very little sense of existence in the Uchiha group.
So it was only recently that the Uchiha realized that Obito, the Uchiha kid with little presence, had counterattacked and become an Uchiha genius.
"You should practice hard in the future. After graduation, you can join the clan's police force. I will personally lead you then." Uchiha Yashiro continued.
Ninjas from large families all have certain privileges.
The privilege of the Hyuga clan is that the main family members do not need to go to ninja school but can receive education directly within the clan and become Genin before taking the Chunin exam.
The privilege of the Uchiha clan is the Konoha Police Force.
The Konoha Police Force is fully controlled by the Uchiha clan, and everyone in the department is a ninja from the Uchiha clan. The Uchiha clan can appoint any position they want their clan members to.
If Obito can maintain such excellent strength in the future, Uchiha Yashiro would not mind becoming Obito's teacher on his ninja journey.
The prerequisite is to always maintain such an excellent level, otherwise the guidance he mentioned can only be to help Obito familiarize himself with the work in the initial stage.
The Uchiha clan's ancestral motto since ancient times is that the strong are respected, and there has never been any sympathy for the weak. If you have strength, you can have everything, but if you don't have strength, no one will care about you no matter how difficult your situation is.
"Thank you so much, I will practice hard." Obito said with gratitude. Then he selectively ignored Uchiha Yashiro's words about joining the police department.
Looking at Obito's grateful expression, Uchiha Yashiro nodded secretly in his heart.
"Communicate more with Uchiha peers and seniors. Only the clan members are the most reliable force."
"After you graduate as a Genin, you can apply to your clan to learn new fire-style ninjutsu." After saying that, Uchiha Yashiro left Obito's house.
"Our Obito is really promising. Your father has never been rewarded by the family before. You are already better than your father was." Grandma said with a smile.
"Father..." Obito recalled in his mind, but he couldn't find any figure related to the word father.
His parents died before he could remember.
But precisely because he had no memories, Obito had a relatively happy childhood, because he had his grandmother by his side and he did not lack love from his elders.
"Grandma, please put the money away quickly, otherwise it will be blown away by the wind." Obito sorted the money on the table and handed it to his grandmother.
"Obito, use the money to buy food. This is money you earned yourself. Grandma doesn't want it." Grandma smiled kindly.
"Then I'll keep the money with you, grandma. I'm afraid I'll lose it." Obito thought for a moment, took out a hundred taels, and handed the rest of the money to his grandmother.
In the end, grandma accepted the money given by Obito with a look of relief on her face.
"Obito, you've really grown up." Grandma sighed, "I just don't know when I'll be able to hold my great-grandson."
Hearing his grandmother talking about holding a grandson, Obito's face quickly turned red and he reminded her:
"Grandma, I'm still in school!"
Grandma Obito smiled and said, "You can cultivate your relationship by going to school. Your father is your mother's classmate."
"I think Xiaolin is a very nice kid, and seems very caring. How are you guys getting along lately?"
"I'm going to study!" Obito ran upstairs with a red face.
…
"Look around, it looks like this is the place." Mu Yue looked up at the name of the store and walked in.
He felt that the name given by the shop owner was a bit abstract. If it weren't for the words "ninja tools" written next to the store name, most people would probably have no idea what the store sold when they saw the name.
If it weren't for Minato's recommendation, Mu Yue would probably have gone to a ninja tool shop with a more normal name.
Walking into the store, Mu Yue took a few glances and saw that the counter and walls were covered with various ninja tools, including various styles of kunai and shuriken.
Compared to the name, the layout of the store is no different from that of an ordinary ninja tool store.
"Sir, do you need any ninja tools?" A young man with a warm smile on his face walked up and asked.
"Can I borrow your equipment to make my own ninja tools? I may need some assistance from you during the process." Mu Yue asked directly.
"Borrow equipment and build it yourself?" The young man was a little confused. He had taken over the ninja tool shop for several years, and this was the first time he had encountered such a request.
"If you, the customer, want to make specific ninja tools, our store accepts customized services." The young boss thought for a moment and said.
Mu Yue felt that his boss had misunderstood his meaning, so he explained:
"I'm planning to make a ninja tool myself to give to someone. I value the thought behind it more than its practicality."
"Is that really the case? That's really thoughtful of you." The young boss showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
"Whether you use the equipment or need assistance, I will give corresponding remuneration. I will also be responsible if any accidents occur during the creation process." Mu Yue said.
Mu Yue did not spend any of the salary and bonus from the end of last semester. Adding the salary for summer special training and one month's salary for the new semester, he left some money for unexpected expenses, and he had no problem budgeting within 700,000 taels.
Mu Yue felt that it shouldn't be so exaggerated. He didn't want anything made of pure chakra metal or meteorite from outer space.
A kunai of ordinary quality is usually worth only two hundred taels, and even if it is multiplied by a thousand times, it would only be two hundred thousand taels.
"It must be a gift to an important person. Fortunately, you came to my side. Now the Konoha Ninja Tool Shop basically purchases goods from other places and sells them. There are very few tools for forging ninja tools." The young boss thought for a while and said.
He originally wanted to refuse, but when he thought about how thoughtful Mu Yue was and that she would give him corresponding rewards, he decided to agree.
"Come with me." The young boss called a young woman who looked about his age to come down to look after the store, and he took Mu Yue out of the Ninja Tool Shop.
Mu Yue followed the young boss to their backyard warehouse.
"I occasionally make some fine ninja tools myself to sell, but now I use them less often. It's still more profitable to sell ordinary ninja tools." said the young boss, pointing to the forging equipment in the warehouse.
"Nowadays, factories are engaged in mass production. Times have changed," said the young boss with emotion.
When he was a child, he often learned from his father to make various ninja tools. However, more than ten years later, the times have changed. Making ninja tools purely by hand is not only more tiring, but also inefficient.
Then the two of them discussed the price. Mu Yue needed to pay for all the materials used during the period, and then he had to pay the boss for the fees.
Mu Yue plans to practice with ordinary materials in the early stage, and then start formally crafting with better materials after becoming proficient.
The birthdays of his three disciples are Shisui on October 19th, Might Guy on January 1st, and Obito on February 10th.
The closest one is Shisui, and there are only eight days left. Taking into account some related books he had read before, Mu Yue feels that he should be able to catch up by using shadow clones to speed up his learning.
Using shadow clones to practice ninjutsu consumes a lot of chakra, because you have to leave enough chakra for each shadow clone to use ninjutsu. But it is different for blacksmithing. Just be careful not to split it too much and accumulate too much fatigue.
And in the final construction, you can ask the boss to assist throughout the process, which is enough to make up for a lot of things.
I felt dizzy and didn't get up until 4pm.
