Chapter 24 Weighing the Pros and Cons



The letter was actually an invitation letter. The clan leader invited all the jonin and chunin to attend Uchiha Itachi's naming banquet.

The ninja world also has the concept of full moon, but it is called naming, which means that the child has survived and has established himself, so he can be named.

If a baby dies within a month of birth, it can only be considered a miscarriage and does not deserve a name.

Even though he died before the age of six, at least he came into this world and left a little trace behind, so even after his death he would have a tombstone.

For example, Uzumaki Naruto was given a name when he was born more than ten years later, but that was an inevitable exception.

Uchiha You calmed down and happily took Miwa Masayo to the banquet, presented gifts, and ate and drank with high-quality ingredients that he could not afford normally, with very high nutritional value.

"You, these things are all good, but why do they not taste as good as the ones you make?"

Miwa Masayo was full, so she lay on Uchiha You's lap with her belly turned over, asking her owner to rub her belly.

Uchiha You smiled and said, "Because my cooking philosophy is different from others."

"I like to use spices to enhance the flavor. Except for the liver, which is eaten raw to preserve its nutrients, all meats are cooked. I also use a lot of oil, but I don't use too much oil on one dish."

“Balance is my philosophy, and the chefs here go for extremes.”

The diet in the ninja world is undoubtedly a combination of Japanese light meals and American fast food. It is fine to eat it as a work meal, but if you think of it as a gourmet meal, then you are really thinking too much.

But the ingredients in the clan leader's house are really impeccable, they are so good that they can be digested immediately after entering the stomach, and then turn into hot currents that spread into every part of the body and become nutrients for building the foundation of the body.

"If I can eat three meals a day, I think I will see obvious results in building my foundation within a month or two."

"Niao? You, do you think you have changed a little now?"

"Is it very big?"

"That's really exaggerated, meow. If I hadn't been with you every day, I wouldn't have recognized you..."

"But none of my people think I have changed?"

"Ha, You, what do you think your position is here?"

"You are just a nobody, squatting outside the room, at the outermost layer of the yard, in the corner under the wall, a small character that no one notices."

“Who will pay attention to you, meow?”

"Well, you're right, but my neighbors don't notice anything different about me, do they?"

"You're so slow, meow. Everyone can see that you've grown stronger!"

(Baji, Baji)

"Well, maybe in the eyes of humans, you haven't changed much."

"But in our eyes, your taste and smell change every day. It's horrible."

"Really?"

"Have you not noticed that now when you pass by the stinky dog's door, there is no stinky dog ​​arguing with me?"

Uchiha You was stunned, and immediately recalled these changes. It was indeed as Miwa Masayo said.

He did not continue to argue with the tabby cat, but called a waiter who was passing by and said, "Shigenobu, give me five more plates of this meat. What kind of meat is this? It's delicious."

The waiter also knew Uchiha You, and said with a smile: "Brother You, this is the deer meat of the Nara family. It is said that the deer grew up eating medicinal herbs."

At this time, he saw the plates on the table and immediately gasped: "Oh my God, Brother You, how many plates of meat did you eat? Is there really no problem?"

"I won't have a nosebleed, give me five more plates."

"Okay...are you really okay?"

"It's okay! By the way, take these plates away. They're a bit conspicuous."

"OK."

When Uchiha Shigenobu walked away, Miwa Masayo was shocked and said, "My meow, you can still eat? Were you starving before?"

"No, I was full before. It's just that I'm in the foundation-building stage and can control my stomach. When there's something delicious, I can eat several times more."

"...As expected of you."

Miwa Masayo couldn't help but yawn loudly, unable to hide his sleepiness at all.

Uchiha You put the cute cat in his arms, curled her up into a ball, and said, "Go to sleep if you're sleepy. You should be more in tune with your body now."

"Okay meow."

The tabby cat did not resist Uchiha You's caress and hug. It followed his movements, buried its head under its belly, and fell asleep.

Animals and humans are different. Even if they are both advancing on the immortal path, their paths are different.

To become an immortal by following the natural order is the way to immortality for human beings. To practice step by step, one must not only strengthen the body, but also tame and control the instincts, and use these as resources to achieve a higher life.

But other animals need to follow their instincts, trace their bloodlines, learn from the original primitive life, and upgrade their life essence. So Uchiha Yuu worked hard to train himself, polish his body and temper his mind, while at the same time he suggested that Miwa Masayo eat when he wants to, sleep when he wants to, move when he wants to, and quarrel with the ninja dog when he wants to, and everything should follow nature and the body's instincts.

Sure enough, by following this principle, the tabby cat made rapid progress and its strength grew at a rate no slower than his, which made the cat slaves envious.

So jealous.

But humans are special. They rely entirely on their brains to gain hegemony over all ecological niches. Human nature is to work hard. After complaining about envy and jealousy, Uchiha You continued to work hard calmly.

Under Uchiha Yu's touch, Miwa Masaya soon began to purr comfortably.

But he still felt very heavy-hearted. Thanks to Miwa Masayo's reminder, otherwise he might have accidentally revealed his true identity at some point.

There are four essentials for cultivating immortality: Dharma, wealth, companions and land.

These four types only differ in order, but there is no unimportant existence.

Miwa Masayo's reminder made Uchiha You realize the value of a partner, and also made him realize that his concealment could deceive humans, but not the sensitive ninja beasts.

Perhaps Inuzuka Tsumugi could also sense his changes, but this carefree female kunoichi ignored it.

Uchiha You's thoughts have changed, but there is still a long way to go before he can show his ability in front of others, and he lacks confidence.

Uchiha You has relied on his own exploration in the path of immortality. He has not yet mastered the techniques used in the foundation-building period. His training focuses on comprehensively strengthening his physical foundation. He has no idea what the level of his own combat power is.

Now, apart from meat and delicacies, he has no special needs for any resources, and his external demands are very low. There is no need for him to stand out and become a famous genius in Konoha Village.

If his body's needs increase again and his appetite increases several times again, far exceeding the limit of what he can bear, he will take the initiative to step forward without being urged by others, become a genius that everyone pays attention to, stand at the center of the family and the Hokage's attention, and then strive for more resources from the family.

The more famous the genius's reputation is, the more resources Uchiha You can get from the family.

But the losses of becoming the focus are equally great. The family will have messy missions, the Anbu and the Root will be monitoring them all the time, and even assassinations will follow.

It's a trade-off.

Uchiha You was sure that it would be more beneficial to hide himself now.

That's why he deliberately chose the outermost yard and sat in the most remote corner.
