This Uchiha Just Wants to Lay Low

### Chapter 26: The Giant Summoning Beast: Chubimaru!

Uchiha Toru sighed regretfully.

How wonderful it would be to succeed in one go.

"No!" Uchiha Takashi shook his head and explained, "It was a success. Just a few more experiments, and Mei will regain her sight!"

The effects of the new potion had already been verified. Now, it was just a matter of conducting more experiments to master the dosage.

Moreover, he had confirmed a few things, and the progress would only get faster.

"That's great!"

Uchiha Toru's expression was filled with excitement.

Having watched Uchiha Mei grow up since she was a child, she had come to see her as a daughter, which is why she was so emotional.

"But we need to think ahead about how to explain it."

Uchiha Takashi calmly pointed this out.

Healing her wasn't the problem, but how to explain it afterward was.

The new potion and a healing potion were completely different things.

A healing potion could at most be considered a substitute for medical ninjutsu, and even then, it was a 'low-grade' version.

But something like 'limb regeneration' was unprecedented.

At least, medical ninjutsu couldn't achieve it, not even Tsunade, who pioneered medical ninjutsu.

So once exposed, the consequences would be extremely severe.

Not to mention whether the Uchiha clan would protect him, even if they did, it might not be enough.

"Don't worry, I've already used genjutsu to alter the memories of those medical ninjas. As long as Mei announces that she was healed by other medical ninjas, it'll be fine!"

Uchiha Toru confidently assured that it wouldn't be a problem.

The medical ninjas they had previously found weren't from Konoha, so their memories had naturally been altered.

This was to prevent Sharingan information from leaking, so outsiders didn't know the situation.

Within the clan, they only knew her eyes were injured, but only a few knew how severe it was.

As long as they claimed she encountered a skilled medical ninja who helped her due to a favor owed to her grandfather, it would suffice.

As for anyone asking for detailed explanations?

Sorry, Uchiha Mei wasn't an ordinary person.

As the 'former princess' of the Uchiha clan, she naturally had the right not to disclose everything.

And this right wasn't exclusive to her; if they really wanted to dig into all the details, it would cross the line for all ninjas.

"Then I'll leave it to Aunt Jingxiang!"

Uchiha Takashi was quite satisfied with this.

As long as no one suspected him, it was fine.

Half a month later! When Uchiha Takashi completed the fifth experiment and returned to the courtyard, the thing he had been eagerly anticipating arrived.

"This is the summoning scroll you wanted!"

Uchiha Mei tossed over a scroll as thick as an arm.

Though her eyes were still covered with white cloth, her demeanor had recovered, no longer showing the dead look from before.

Slap! Uchiha Takashi excitedly caught the scroll.

Though having someone else retrieve it for him was risky.

But if he waited to do it himself, who knew how long it would take, so he thought of using 'money power' to have Kakuzu retrieve it for him.

As it turned out, as long as the money was right, Kakuzu could complete any task well.

"Let's go to the training ground!"

Uchiha Takashi was a bit excited.

Because this would definitely be his trump card.

Even if Taiichi had greater potential.

But to grow to the level of the giant lizard Shouki, it would still take quite some time.

Uchiha Mei quietly followed.

For a ninja, even if they couldn't see, it didn't mean they couldn't move freely.

Detection ninjutsu!

The clan didn't lack such things.

Uchiha Mei had already learned one, allowing her to move around with some ease.

And during this time, word had spread that her eyes were 'recovering' due to the intervention of a skilled medical ninja.

Of course, this claim was to cover for the new potion.

The two quickly arrived at the training grounds exclusive to the main branch of the Uchiha clan.

Every major ninja clan had their own training grounds.

The Uchiha clan, of course, had theirs, and it was even the largest, otherwise, they wouldn't be considered an 'elite clan.'

The training grounds were not only equipped with training tools but also had interference barriers to ensure privacy.

Even the Byakugan couldn't see through these barriers.

No way.

### Chapter 26: The Giant Summoning Beast: Chubimaru!

In the world of ninjas, intelligence is of utmost importance, so setting up these measures is not surprising. Standing at the center of an exclusive training ground surrounded by dense forest, Uchiha Takashi slowly unfurled the summoning scroll.

At this moment, he was curious to know if a certain name was on it.

Kishimoto Masashi!

As the scroll unfurled, there were only a few names, with the foremost being 'Shuzo Gosuke.'

"Thank goodness..."

Uchiha Takashi quietly breathed a sigh of relief; he was worried that name might actually be there.

He bit his finger and wrote his own name on the scroll.

After writing his name, Uchiha Takashi felt a vague sense of connection.

Boar-Dog-Rooster...! His hands slowly formed the seals.

Attention.

The latest novel is first released on 69 Books Bar!

A summoning beast doesn't necessarily fight for you just because you've signed a contract.

Obtaining the summoning scroll is only the first step; you must earn the creature's approval to summon it for battle.

Moreover, summoning beasts have different temperaments.

Just like how Naruto and Gamabunta's relationship was in the future, it's not unusual for a summoned beast to disobey your orders.

Although the personality of the Great Lizard of Shuzaki is supposed to be loyal, Uchiha Takashi was still cautious, which is why he chose to summon it in this training ground rather than in the basement.

"Summoning Jutsu!"

Uchiha Takashi used all the chakra in his body.

The chakra consumption varies depending on the summoning target.

For a small summoning beast, even a Genin can summon it easily.

But for a large summoning beast, a Genin shouldn't even think about it unless their last name is 'Uzumaki' and they are a Jinchuriki.

Uchiha Takashi's chakra wasn't even at 'one card,' but it was equivalent to that of a Special Jonin, and it was completely drained, as if he had been sucked dry.

Bang! A large cloud of white smoke spread out.

Standing to the side, Uchiha Mei drew a kunai and also held a signal flare.

In her perception, an immense chakra suddenly appeared in the training ground, making her extremely tense.

'What kind of summoning beast is this?'

Just from the chakra alone, it was clear that this was a summoning beast far stronger than the previous ninja crows, and even among the Uchiha clan, there was no summoning beast that could compare.

As the white smoke dissipated, a massive white lizard with crimson eyes appeared in the training ground.

It was over ten meters tall and at least several dozen meters long.

What kind of concept is this?

It meant that to see the full view of the creature, one would have to step back a bit.

Powerful.

Just by looking at its size, one could tell.

For summoning beasts, the larger the size, the stronger they are.

The reason is simple.

The larger the body, the more chakra it can hold, and the greater the destructive power.

"It seems the line of Lord Shuzo has ended, and you are the new contractor?"

The white giant lizard lowered its head, examining Uchiha Takashi with its crimson eyes.

'It seems easy to deal with!'

Realizing that the creature didn't attack immediately, Uchiha Takashi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and introduced himself:

"I am Uchiha Takashi, pleased to meet you!"

Fortunately, the creature wasn't stubbornly refusing to accept him as the new contractor; otherwise, it would have been troublesome.

If the creature was unwilling to cooperate, there was nothing he could do with his current strength.

"I am Chubimaru. I will assist you in battle in the future, but for now, my chakra is depleted, so I shall take my leave!"

After stating its name, the Great Lizard of Shuzaki indicated that the summoning was over.

Indeed.

With Uchiha Takashi's current chakra, it wasn't even enough to cover the creature's 'appearance fee' for half a minute.

However, such powerful combat strength, even for just half a minute, was sufficient.

At least in terms of destructive power, it was definitely not weaker than a Kage-level, and perhaps even stronger.

The chakra consumption will decrease as the relationship between the summoner and the summoning beast improves.

The default is that the summoner bears the summoning cost, but once the relationship improves, the summoning beast can bear most of the cost.

Like Taiichi, during summoning, the summoning beast bears most of the chakra cost.

In the case of Chubimaru, Uchiha Takashi bore the entire chakra cost during summoning, which is why the duration was so short.
