Early the next morning—
Uchiha Senichi took Uchiha Sora out of the house, carrying two types of Body Tempering Pills they had worked overnight to prepare:
Youth VersionAdult VersionAt the Third Elder's Residence
They first visited the Third Elder, Uchiha Akiha.
After handing over the pills, Senichi explained:
The Body Tempering PillsThe business cooperation plansRestaurants, alcohol, pharmaceuticals
Everything had already been prepared.
"So, Uncle Akiha… what do you think?"
"Heh… not bad."
Akiha examined the pills, sniffing them lightly before nodding.
"You should've done this earlier."
Then he added with a smirk:
"The Foundation Bath formula shouldn't have been handed over so easily either."
"But back then, Sora needed clan merit and access to archives, so I let it slide."
Then—
He glanced at Senichi teasingly.
"You've always been a bit… rough."
"I was actually waiting to see when you'd run out of money."
"So?"
"You're broke now, right?"
Senichi scratched his head awkwardly.
"…Nothing gets past you."
"The medicinal baths alone are insanely expensive."
"And Sora's research… materials, equipment…"
"It's like feeding a gold-devouring beast."
Akiha chuckled.
"You're lucky you have a son like him."
"Otherwise… hehe."
Then his expression turned serious.
"The effects you described—are they accurate?"
"Absolutely."
Senichi nodded firmly.
"Everything Sora makes—guaranteed quality."
"Good."
Akiha nodded.
"I'll have people test it today."
"Tomorrow is the clan meeting—I'll present it then."
Testing Results
Later that day—
Two test subjects reported back:
A 12-year-old Uchiha boyA 25-year-old Uchiha man
Both said:
"The effect equals about 5 days of intense Taijutsu training."
"Hiss…"
Akiha inhaled sharply.
"This is… terrifying."
"If mass-produced—"
"The Uchiha Clan could all become Taijutsu elites."
And more importantly—
Stronger bodies → more chakraHigher limits → stronger ninjas
"This is strategic-level."
"Internal use should be prioritized."
"External sales must be weaker."
Decision made instantly.
Clan Meeting
The next morning—
At the clan assembly hall—
Even Sora attended.
The Second Elder spoke first:
"Yesterday, Senichi proposed cooperation."
Chain restaurantsExclusive alcoholBusiness expansion
Then—
"Samples are here."
"Everyone, try them."
Soon—
The hall erupted with reactions:
"Whoa! This fish—amazing!"
"This meat is incredible!"
"This wine—! So strong! So good!"
The results were unanimous:
✔ Food — excellent
✔ Alcohol — exceptional
✔ Business potential — huge
Final Outcome
A few hours later—
Sora's family walked out smiling.
"HAHA! It worked!"
Senichi couldn't stop grinning.
"No more money problems!"
Mixin pinched his waist.
"Stop acting stupid."
But she was smiling too.
Final Decisions from the ClanRestaurant & alcohol business approvedPartnership structure:Sora's family → 30% sharesClan → capital, manpower, locationsBody Tempering Pills DecisionAllowed for saleExternal version → half potency of clan versionClan supply → at cost priceBack Home
Uchiha Hao asked:
"So we're reducing potency again?"
"That's only 1/4 of the original version."
"Isn't that… kind of a scam?"
"SMACK!"
Senichi hit him instantly.
"Idiot!"
"Even at reduced strength, one pill equals 2.5 days of training."
"And the efficiency boost is even higher."
"This is still insanely valuable."
"You think people won't buy it?"
Then his tone turned more serious.
"Selling full-strength would be dangerous."
"That's basically… strengthening enemies."
Inside Konoha alone—
There were already many who disliked the Uchiha.
And people like Danzo Shimura?
They'd definitely benefit the most.
Lower potency = safer.
In fact—
If not for market viability…
Senichi would've lowered it even further.
