Chapter 19: Mission Team?



Uchiha You, aware of the danger, did not panic. He adjusted his breathing rhythm and tried his best to control the natural energy to coordinate the operation, keeping the rhythm of the Dantian shock wave stable and more powerful.

The giant ape in his mind seemed to sense that the end was near, and it erupted in a final burst of madness, causing Uchiha Yu's heart to pound wildly, almost like a precursor to cardiac arrest.

If it were an ordinary person, at this time, they would feel chest tightness and shortness of breath at best, or a piercing pain in the heart at worst, or even feel the terror between life and death. However, Uchiha You did not feel any pain, but he felt the illusion of his body expanding as if it did not exist. His intuition told him that this was not a problem, as long as he could kill the damn monkey, everything would be fine.

He was a strange man who practiced Taoism based on his own pleasure. He had full trust in his intuition, so he mustered all his energy and tried his best to keep his mind calm and his body stable.

As for the stinky monkey in your mind, you don't need to do anything more. Just wait for the world of your mind to operate on its own and slowly kill the monkey in your heart.

At this moment, Uchiha You was not in a state of tranquility, but he was better than being in a state of tranquility. There were waves in his heart, but he could sense everything like a mirror. Every beat of his heart, the surge of blood in his veins, the trembling of his dantian, and the final struggle of the monkey in his mind were all reflected in his heart without any error. It was as if he had mastered the great power of omniscience.

As his mind turned, he discovered that not only was he omniscient about his inner world, his perception of the outside world was also unprecedentedly powerful.

The passionate speech of the Third Hokage, the breathing and movements of the sixty-two newly promoted Chunins, the faint breathing of the six Anbu ninjas, the dust floating in the air, and even the sharp gazes of the Anbu ninjas, were all taken in by Uchiha Yuu.

Uchiha You was neither surprised nor happy, but he realized that he had mastered a magical power.

【All-knowing mind and eyes.】

Unfortunately, his first magical power was very immature, and the range it could reach was only nine meters. Beyond this range, the information he could perceive suddenly decayed and was completely meaningless chaos.

As the Heart Monkey let out the most violent roar, its body suddenly exploded, turning into broken pieces that filled the spiritual space, and then turned into blood-red dust in the vibration of Dantian.

But the heart monkey did not disappear completely. Its shrill roar soon turned into a "wailing" sound, and Uchiha You could even hear that it was begging for forgiveness.

[How interesting! Let me see what the monkey has become now? ]

The spiritual space changed with his thoughts. The red dust quickly settled to the ground, forming an extremely flat red earth. A shivering golden monkey appeared on the earth.

I have to say that the monkey looks really cute now, with big black eyes, blue face, golden hair, and a pitiful look huddled up in a ball. It looks so honest and harmless no matter how you look at it. It is completely different species from the gorilla that was beating its chest and stamping its feet just now.

But Uchiha You will never forget that this monkey was only temporarily subdued, and in the long journey of cultivation in the future, it will always be inseparable from him, and will always try to stir up his mind, always wanting to knock him into the dust and take his place.

It is impossible to destroy the monkey in your heart. You can only defeat it again and again until it is completely tamed.

Completely tame the monkey in your heart...

[This is only possible when one finally becomes an immortal...right?]

[That's right, how can the monkey mind be eliminated? It is the comprehensive evolution of desires. Without the monkey mind, there would be no desires, and no impulses or mood swings at all.]

[Those without desires and impulses are definitely not human beings. After all, even plants have desires and emotions. They will fight for sunlight, water and fertilizer under the guidance of desires, and even develop weapons such as strangulation, thorns, and toxins. ]

[Perhaps there is no desire or emotion at all, only inorganic stones and purely digital computer programs.]

[I am a human being, and immortals are also human beings. The monkey mind rests with humans. ]

【Um?】

Uchiha You suddenly discovered that the dark-colored earth in his spiritual world was becoming thinner, just like the snow covering the earth melting, and the flesh and blood dust of the giant ape's body was disappearing.

At the same time, he also realized that heavy rain was falling in his heart, and that rain was red.

The most direct benefit of taming the monkey heart was revealed. The wild and domineering emotions turned into a spiritual rainstorm, nourishing Uchiha You's heart and soul.

So cool!

At this moment, Uchiha You felt extremely refreshed. His mind was particularly fulfilled, his spirit was refreshed and happy, and his body was completely relaxed. He was shaking slightly in the horse stance, stimulating a tangible rise in qi and blood.

It’s like finally having a bowel movement after holding it in for three days. This analogy is a bit vulgar, but surprisingly apt.

As his mind calmed down, the spiritual world gradually became blurred in Uchiha You's mind's eyes, and finally became completely invisible.

Fortunately, his perception of the outside world and the inside of his body was still clear, and his newly acquired magical powers had not been lost. This made Uchiha You very satisfied. This was his first magical power, and he would be so angry if he lost it.

There is nothing more cruel in the world than throwing away something just as you get it.

As luck would have it, with the temporary surrender of the heart monkey, the Third Hokage finally finished speaking the Will of Fire.

"…I hope everyone can uphold the will of fire and work hard for the prosperity and stability of Konoha Village!"

Hualalalal——

The excited children clapped their hands desperately, and some fanatical children even burst into tears, unable to control themselves due to their excitement.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the results of his speech with satisfaction. He believed that these newly promoted Chunins would become his supporters and play a huge role in the upcoming war.

"Sure enough, I am right."

"Times have changed. Ninjas no longer see themselves as mere tools, swords in the hands of nobles, as they did in the Warring States Period."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the hidden Root ninja and frowned slightly.

"There are still ninjas like this, but their numbers are no longer mainstream, and they will never make a big splash."

The Third Hokage left with satisfaction. He had already signed the promotion order yesterday, so he didn't need to do such a small thing personally, such as issuing it, and he didn't have that much time.

Next, he will also attend the promotion ceremony of adult Genin. Although the Third Hokage knows that these ninjas do not have the potential to become Jonin, they have rich mission experience and are qualified Chunin captains.

In the early stages of the war, these Chuunin were the village's main force and should not be ignored like Danzo did.

Soon the administrative ninja handed the promotion order to Uchiha Yu.

Before he could see clearly, another administrative ninja holding a scroll and a brush walked up to him and asked, "Chunnin can form their own mission teams. Do you have any candidates in mind?"

"If there is, please report your name and ninja number, and Lord Hokage will coordinate personnel as appropriate. If there is no target, then you can only wait for random assignment in the village."

"Task team?" Uchiha You smiled and answered simply: "I don't plan to organize a mission team, so there is no need to register."

How could Uchiha You team up with others now? Can his secret be known to others?

Besides, organizing a team requires worrying, spending time, and sharing the task bonuses. It’s not as comfortable as living alone.
