"Then I'll wait for you to challenge me."
"I'll definitely beat you down!" Uchiha Obito clenched his fists and shouted, "And Kakashi too! Master Obito is invincible!"
"Heh." Yuuki Yuichi didn't take him seriously and turned to leave, but then stopped.
[Achievement: Obito's Promise.]
[Agreements between men always stir the blood!]
[Reward: Uchiha Sasuke (Sharingan)]
[Uchiha Sasuke (Sharingan)]
[Skills: Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique, Sharingan, Chidori.]
[I swear by the glory of the Uchiha, I will kill him!]
[Skill 1: Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique: Gather chakra in the throat, then expel a large area of flames to incinerate the target.]
[Skill 2: Sharingan: Activate the Sharingan to anticipate the target's actions. In the next five minutes, your Great Fireball Technique will be enhanced, and with the same chakra amount, it will last longer.]
[Skill 3: Chidori: Concentrate a large amount of chakra into your hand and charge forward. Any target in the path will suffer severe lightning damage.]
[Special Talent: 1.5 Tomoe Sharingan.]
Yuuki Yuichi hadn't expected that such a simple exchange with Uchiha Obito could trigger an achievement.
"Promise?" Yuuki murmured, recalling Obito's words.
Many people he had beaten up before had said similar things, so when Obito said it, he didn't think much of it, just assuming it was another empty threat.
But why hadn't those others triggered an achievement, yet Obito had?
Yuuki rubbed his chin and glanced at Uchiha Obito. The intensity of his gaze made Obito step back a little.
"Does he… like me?" Obito thought nervously, his body tensing as he inched closer to Nohara Rin without making a sound.
Coming out of his thoughts, Yuuki Yuichi looked at Obito with a bright smile.
Just as Obito was about to grab Nohara Rin and flee, Yuuki's smile vanished, replaced by a cold expression. "Anyone who's been beaten by me doesn't qualify as my opponent."
"You're still 20,000 years too early to defeat me!"
Obito glared at him, ignoring the earlier uncomfortable gaze and clenching his fists.
"Damn you! Wait until I activate my bloodline limit—I'll defeat you then!"
"We'll see." Yuuki shrugged, then pulled Might Guy to the side.
Obito, still fuming, watched him go.
"What an arrogant guy!"
"Obito, are you okay?" Nohara Rin walked over, pulling out bandages from her pocket. "Good thing I always bring bandages for practice, otherwise your injuries would be harder to treat."
She gently bandaged Obito, but couldn't help complaining. "Yuichi-kun is stronger than you. You should wait until you've trained more before challenging him. Why did you rush into it?"
Obito blushed as Nohara Rin treated him, turning his head away and muttering softly, "But Rin is here…"
"Obito!" Nohara Rin heard him clearly and grew a little angry.
Seeing her upset, Obito quickly promised, "I know I was wrong! I'll challenge that arrogant guy again after I've trained hard!"
"Hmph! If you do this again next time, I won't help you!"
Obito quickly assured her again, and then, taking out a small bottle of eye drops from his pocket, he muttered, "As long as I protect my eyes well, I'll awaken my Sharingan. Then I'll challenge Yuuki Yuichi!"
Obito raised his head carefully and began dripping the eye drops into his eyes.
Nohara Rin, having just finished bandaging him, asked curiously, "Obito, is the Sharingan really that powerful?"
Her question caught the attention of their other friends nearby.
Like Nohara Rin, they came from ordinary families and only knew some basics about ninjas. They had never heard of things like bloodline limits, but they became curious after meeting Obito.
Now that Rin had asked the question they all wondered about, they gathered around to listen.
Seeing his friends' interest, Obito proudly stood up, stepping onto his seat.
"Of course! The Sharingan is the strongest eye technique in the ninja world. Once activated, it gives you the strength of a Genin!"
"There's the two-tomoe and three-tomoe Sharingan, which represent Chunin and Jounin levels!"
"Is there anything beyond the three-tomoe Sharingan?" Yuuki Yuichi asked, appearing beside Obito at some point.
Hearing Yuichi's question, Obito immediately became even more proud. "Three-tomoe is for Jounin! There's nothing beyond that!"
"Really?"
"I don't believe it."
Yuichi shook his head. "I think there's something beyond the three-tomoe Sharingan."
"Impossible!" Obito retorted. "How could I, a member of the Uchiha clan, not know if there was something beyond the three-tomoe Sharingan?"
Seeing that Yuichi still looked unconvinced, Obito gritted his teeth and said, "If there's anything beyond the three-tomoe Sharingan, I'll jump off the cliff at Minamiga River!"
Hearing Obito's bold words, Yuichi smiled strangely. Was Obito about to imitate Uchiha Shisui?
Might Guy, who stood to the side, felt a bit helpless. He had known Yuichi for a long time and knew that his friend had a sharp tongue. Yuichi could be harsh but wasn't a bad person.
Still, Yuichi had a habit of nitpicking and pressing on others' nerves.
While Might Guy struggled with what to do, Yuichi Yuichi's attention was drawn to the eye drops in Obito's hand. He glanced at Obito and then pointed to the bottle.
"Can I borrow your eye drops?" Yuichi asked.
He wanted to deal a crushing blow to this kid.
Without much thought, Obito tossed the eye drops over. "Sure, here you go."
"Is your eyesight bad?" Obito asked, concerned. Despite being beaten up by Yuichi, Obito didn't hold a grudge and was genuinely worried about him.
After all, the only people who used eye drops, in Obito's mind, were people like him with poor vision.
"Your method of using eye drops to awaken the Sharingan is interesting. I want to try it too," Yuichi said, amused.
