"Hmm? Sora, why do I feel like there's already chakra inside your body? Didn't you say you wouldn't consider extracting chakra before the age of five or six?"
While practicing the Perfect Sharingan Cultivation Method, Uchiha Misa casually glanced at Sora with her Sharingan—and immediately noticed something unusual. She couldn't help but ask with concern.
Extracting chakra too early wasn't a good thing. It could damage the body and even reduce one's potential.
"What?!"
Hearing this, Uchiha Masayuki and the others immediately grew anxious and all turned to look at Sora.
"Don't worry!"
Sora quickly waved his hand. "This wasn't something I actively extracted. It's chakra that was naturally fed back to me when my Sharingan awakened—generated from pupil power and bloodline awakening. It doesn't harm my body at all."
"Also, with my current physical foundation and strength, even if I did extract chakra from my cells, as long as it's controlled, it wouldn't damage my foundation."
"Not to mention—I've already created a method to reverse my Innate Qi to compensate for any cellular energy or vitality loss caused by chakra extraction."
"So… I can officially start learning ninjutsu now."
Plans couldn't keep up with changes.
Originally, he really had planned not to extract chakra before age five.
But now—with a perfect workaround—
Using a small amount of chakra for research and practice was completely safe.
"Wait… that's even possible?"
Everyone was stunned.
Isn't chakra supposed to be formed from the fusion of physical energy and spiritual energy?
"How is that fair? I feel like your chakra is already comparable to mine!"
Uchiha Hao said with a depressed face.
So all his years of hard work… lost to one awakening?
Life really isn't fair.
"Isn't that normal?"
Sora shrugged. "When you awakened your Sharingan—or when it evolved—didn't your chakra and physique also surge? Same principle."
Hao wanted to argue that it wasn't the same at all…
But then he thought about it.
This was Sora.
Nothing about him followed normal logic anyway.
Better to just go train.
Soon after—
Sora finished reading and fully digesting all the clan's medical books.
His major research phases—Sharingan system, medical theory, cultivation methods—were also temporarily complete.
His daily routine now was just:
CultivateImproveRefine
Which meant…
He suddenly had free time.
"If I want to continue researching bloodlines and medical ninjutsu… I need access to the ninja hospital."
"I'll have to find a way in."
With that thought, he waited until noon and told his mother.
"Eh?"
Uchiha Misa was surprised.
"You want to join the ninja hospital to study? Isn't that too early? You're only three! And didn't you say you wanted to stay low-key?"
Getting him in would definitely expose some of his talent.
"That doesn't mean I should slow my growth," Sora shook his head.
"Don't worry—I've already mastered a method to suppress my chakra and hide my true strength. Revealing a bit of talent is fine."
Sooner or later, it would happen anyway.
At this point—
His overall strength was already at least Jōnin level.
Even ordinary Jōnin could be defeated if careless.
There wasn't much to fear anymore.
"…Alright."
Misa nodded.
She trusted her son.
"After lunch, I'll take you to the ninja hospital and introduce you to Tsunade."
"We'll see if she's willing to take you as a student."
"If that works, everything—learning medical ninjutsu, accessing resources—will become much easier."
"Otherwise… with our Uchiha identity, it won't be simple."
Over the past two years, she had clearly begun to notice the subtle hostility from Konoha's higher-ups.
Something she hadn't paid attention to before—
But now, thanks to Sora, she could see it.
"Sounds good. I'll leave it to you, Mom."
Sora nodded.
Becoming Tsunade's student…
That would be extremely valuable.
Not just her medical expertise—
But also the legacy of the Senju clan she carried.
And, well…
She was one of the most beautiful women in the ninja world.
At noon—
Uchiha Masayuki, Uchiha Hao, and Uchiha Mikoto were all out on missions.
So Sora went with his mother alone.
The moment they entered the ninja hospital—
Chaos erupted.
"Ahhh! Misa-jie, is this your son? He's so cute!!"
"Oh my god, such a perfect little face—let me hug him!"
"These cheeks—if I don't pinch them, I'll regret it!"
"You've been hiding such a cute child at home?! That's too much!"
"..."
Within seconds—
Sora was surrounded.
By a swarm of overly enthusiastic medical kunoichi.
Hugging.
Pinching.
Lifting.
Smothering.
He was completely overwhelmed.
This… was NOT part of the plan.
He had completely underestimated one thing—
After cultivating since the womb with Innate Qi…
Combined with excellent genetics…
His appearance had reached a dangerous level of cuteness.
And now—
He was paying the price.
Ten minutes later—
Still trapped.
Still being "attacked."
Still unable to escape.
Sora was seriously considering using genjutsu to break free.
When suddenly—
A sharp voice cut through the chaos:
"What are you all doing crowding here? Why is it so noisy?!"
Everyone froze.
"…Lady Tsunade?!"
