Phew, last night... was it a dream? My body…" Lin Yu got up and looked at his hands, then squeezed his body. Although his appearance hadn't changed, his physical fitness was more than ten times stronger than yesterday.
Although he was from the Uzumaki Clan, Lin Yu's physique was much stronger than that of ordinary people. But just like Uchiha Itachi's Three-Tomoe Sharingan and a regular Uchiha's Three-Tomoe Sharingan, even though they were both Three Tomoe, their ocular power differed greatly. Lin Yu's physique was also below average within the Uzumaki Clan.
"Primary Sage Body, Kagura Mind's Eye, and Sharingan…" Lin Yu looked at the words in his mind, slightly surprised but not feeling anything was amiss.
He was originally a hybrid of the Uchiha and Uzumaki Clans, and also an illegitimate child. Fortunately, the Uzumaki Clan did not have the arrogance and prejudice of the Uchiha. Although Lin Yu was not well-regarded in the clan, he did not suffer too much disdain.
His parents had both sacrificed themselves in the war, and in the clan, only Uzumaki Kushina, also an orphan, kept him company.
Lin Yu gently closed his eyes, and when he reopened them, three black tomoe adorned his blood-red pupils, making them enchanting and eerie.
Phew, now he finally had some power to protect himself.
He would find some opportunities to copy Ninjutsu with his Sharingan. There was no other way, he was simply too poor, and he had a foodie sister to support. So Lin Yu chose to get things for free. Although it was a bit dangerous, it was worth the risk!
"Let's see what other functions this system has. Speaking of which, don't other seniors' systems usually make a 'beep' or 'ding' sound accompanied by a cold, robotic voice? Why is mine pure text? Is it a defective product? No wonder I fainted from the pain last night. How dare this second-hand product be used to deceive a transmigrator? Bad review, bad review!"
Lin Yu suppressed his internal complaints and scrolled through the text in his mind.
Monthly Missions:
Mission One: Obtain a title from Hanzou, the Giant Salamander (limited to two months).
Reward: Two hours of Rinnegan experience with no consumption (can be frozen).
Mission Two: Get Hiruzen Sarutobi to agree to go to the Battlefield of the Land of Rain.
Reward: Adamantine Sealing Chains and Four Symbols Seal.
Mission Three: Spin Kushina around while holding her.
Reward: shuriken Throwing Mastery.
Friendly Reminder: Three random missions are refreshed monthly. Uncompleted missions will be stored in the mission accumulation. Rewards can be claimed as usual upon completion; accumulating ten missions will permanently randomly eliminate one of the host's main abilities (such as Sage Body, Sharingan, etc.). If a time-limited mission fails, one of the host's main abilities will be permanently eliminated directly.
Phew, after reading the text in his mind, Lin Yu slowly exhaled, trying to keep himself calm. If it weren't for the gentle and approachable mindset he had maintained for the past four years, he would have already turned into a raging maniac.
This ridiculous mission system, not to mention obtaining a title from the "Demigod" of the Ninja World within two months, just the second mission, getting Hiruzen Sarutobi to agree to go to the Battlefield of the Land of Rain, was already hell-level difficulty.
First, there was himself. Aside from the Three Basic Ninjutsu, he knew no other Ninjutsu. The Three Basic Ninjutsu were even taught to him by Kushina after she learned them at the Ninja Academy. His combat experience was almost zero.
Going to the battlefield, he would undoubtedly be cannon fodder, not even a regular soldier.
Should he expose his Kagura Mind's Eye and become a scout? Or tell Hiruzen Sarutobi that he had awakened his Sharingan and wanted to copy some Ninjutsu, asking him to arrange a few hundred Ninja to perform Ninjutsu in front of him in turns.
He would be sliced and diced by Danzo in minutes. Even if he took a step back, he would be confined to Konoha Village. Sharingan plus Sage Body, this would make him the prime candidate for Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
Then the time-limited mission would be impossible to complete, and he would be confined to the village in the future. If a mission to leave the village popped up, his life would truly be dark.
Fortunately, there was still a consolation mission: spinning Kushina around while holding her. Was this like giving a sweet date after two slaps? Give him more of these daily missions, and they could hide until they were invincible, then kick Madara around and punch Ōtsutsuki. How great would that be!
Lin Yu put away his complaining thoughts. Since the missions were set, Lin Yu accepted reality. If he couldn't hide until he was invincible, then he would develop cautiously and not be reckless… He quickly tidied himself up and went downstairs to the living room, which was also a small clinic. Konoha had assigned them a two-story house, with two bedrooms and a living room upstairs, and a kitchen, living room, a storage room, and a toilet downstairs. Relatively speaking, it was quite good.
The living room was where he saw patients, with a small sofa, a recliner, and a stool. The storage room was filled with medicinal herbs.
Lin Yu looked around and didn't see Kushina. He patted his head, almost forgetting that today was the day of the final exam. It was all the fault of that damn second-hand system!
System: ???
On the clean, old wooden table were two steaming steamed buns, with a small note attached: "Food for → Big Lazy Lin Yu Brother (Big Smiling Face)!"
Looking at the cute emoji at the end, Lin Yu curved his lips. That girl always managed to stir his emotions.
This made him even more determined to become stronger! The little sun Minato Namikaze couldn't protect her, but he, Uzumaki Lin Yu, would not let her suffer any more harm!
He quickly stuffed the steamed buns into his mouth, finished eating, closed the rolling shutter, hung up the 'Closed' sign, and walked towards the bustling street.
Lin Yu first went to a daily necessities shop, then visited Yūhi Kurenai at the Yūhi Clan. He didn't see Shinku Yuhi; a woman was gently rocking Yūhi Kurenai.
After checking Yūhi Kurenai's body and finding nothing serious, he playfully teased Yūhi Kurenai for a bit, then bid farewell and walked towards Konoha Hospital.
"Kid Lin Yu is here to learn medical knowledge again, so diligent."
"Isn't he? If my kid had half of Lin Yu's effort, I'd be burning incense."
"Alas, it's a pity Lin Yu isn't a Ninja and can't learn Medical Ninjutsu. Otherwise, your little clinic would probably be overflowing, since the prices are cheap."
"Shh! Don't talk nonsense. If Kid Lin Yu became a Ninja, wouldn't he have to go to the battlefield? Then…"
"Alas, that's true. War…"
Lin Yu smiled gently and greeted the surrounding villagers. In these four years, his gentle and approachable nature and willingness to help had been observed by them. In their hearts, they had already labeled him as a "goody-two-shoes" and "someone who can be bullied."
As long as it didn't involve personal or financial issues, Lin Yu was very happy to help. Sometimes he would even imitate Obito and help old ladies cross the street.
"Lin Yu, here to learn medical knowledge again? You're such a diligent kid."
"Teacher Hizaka Gakusei, I'm going to trouble you again!"
"You don't know what trouble is, kid. You've been coming to the hospital for two or three years straight. Youth is good, full of motivation. Come on, today, follow me to the intensive care unit." Hizaka Gakusei pushed up his glasses, a hint of a smile appearing on his serious face. He thought very highly of this hardworking and diligent young man.
"I'm disturbing you again today. I'm truly troubling you." Hizaka Gakusei was one of Konoha Hospital's attending physicians, possessing extensive medical knowledge and mastering advanced Ninjutsu like the Mystical Palm Technique. This was one of Lin Yu's goals for coming here.
It was already afternoon by the time he finished checking the intensive care unit with Hizaka Gakusei. Hizaka Gakusei patted Lin Yu's shoulder, rubbed his sore eyes, and said, "That's enough for today. Did you remember everything I just taught?"
"Yes! I remembered everything, Teacher Gakusei. Thank you for your trouble. Please go rest."
"I…"
"Doctor! Doctor! Quick, Chunin Matsushita is almost gone, he needs immediate surgery!" An urgent shout interrupted Hizaka Gakusei. Several nurses pushed a stretcher, on which lay a middle-aged man covered in blood, with crisscrossing wounds on his body and burns on his leg. The most severe injury was a deep, bone-deep knife wound on his chest, faintly revealing a beating half-heart!
Hizaka Gakusei didn't have time to say another word. He quickly put on a surgical gown and rushed into the emergency room. Green light surrounded his hands as he carefully treated the wound on the heart, while the nurse beside him gently wiped away the large beads of sweat dripping from his face.
After a while, the green light in Hizaka Gakusei's hands disappeared, and he was panting heavily.
After quite some time, Hizaka Gakusei calmed down and said to the nurse beside him, "All right, the patient's condition is stable. Now, with medication and Medical Ninjutsu, he'll slowly recover."
After giving instructions on what to pay attention to, Hizaka Gakusei turned and walked towards Lin Yu, not even noticing that he had followed him into the emergency room. He heavily patted Lin Yu's shoulder and sighed, "You see? The Ninja World is cruel. Ordinary medical techniques are useless against such injuries; it's hard to even save a life. Work hard, young man!"
"I understand, I will study even harder!"
"You… alright. By the way, why are you wearing goggles today?"
"Ah? This… I angered Kushina and got punched. One of my eyes turned into a panda eye, so…"
"Puhahaha… That girl can indeed be a headache sometimes."
Bidding farewell to Hizaka Gakusei, Lin Yu hung his goggles on his fiery red hair, humming an off-key tune.
"Mystical Palm Technique acquired! Time to pick up Kushina from school!"
