"Then many thanks. This is the current list of medicinal materials we need each month. It may increase later—please have a look."
As he spoke, Uchiha Sora took out a document from his robe and handed it to Nara Lushan.
Nara Lushan received it and carefully examined the contents. His brows lifted slightly.
"The quantity is quite large… but for the Nara Clan, it's not a problem."
"However, it will take some time to prepare. How about delivering the first batch in five days?"
"If that works for you, we can sign a supply contract first. A 10% deposit will be sufficient."
Most of the materials listed were common and produced in large quantities. Even the rarer ones were still within their capacity to supply.
If this deal continued long-term, the Nara Clan would never have to worry about selling their medicinal materials again.
"Of course!"
Uchiha Sora was delighted. He immediately finalized the supply contract with Nara Lushan and paid the deposit.
Then he stood up to take his leave.
Before departing, he placed six porcelain bottles on the table and said with a smile:
"These are the medicines our shop plans to sell. Their usage and effects are labeled on each bottle. Consider them a small gift for today's visit—please don't refuse. Farewell."
With that, Uchiha Sora left with Uchiha Qianyi.
"I'll see you out."
Nara Lushan was slightly surprised and curious, but still stood up to escort them.
After seeing them off, he returned to the living room.
At that moment, his son, Nara Shikaku, walked out from the inner room.
He looked curiously at the bottles on the table, picked one up, and said:
"This Uchiha Sora is very different from what I imagined. He doesn't feel like a three-year-old at all—more like someone my age. His speech and bearing are both like that."
Without waiting for a reply, he read the label on the bottle in his hand:
"Youth Version Body Tempering Pill—suitable for ages 6–12, increases taijutsu training efficiency by 2–3 times… What the hell? Is this real?"
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Nara Lushan immediately took the bottle and examined it carefully.
"It really says that."
He opened the bottle, poured out two pills, and sniffed them. His brows furrowed slightly.
"They've been processed with a special method. I can't identify the ingredients just by smell. I'll run animal tests first."
With that, he gathered all the bottles and hurried out.
"Yare yare… looks like the village is about to get lively."
Nara Shikaku crossed his arms, yawned, and muttered leisurely.
On the way, Nara Lushan reviewed the labels on the remaining bottles, his thoughts growing heavier.
"If all these effects are real… then Uchiha Sora is going to shake things up. His family will make a fortune."
But more importantly—it was what these medicines represented.
Especially the Body Tempering Pill.
A 2–3x increase in taijutsu training efficiency was simply terrifying.
As a major producer of medicinal herbs, the Nara Clan naturally had well-developed facilities for pharmaceutical testing.
Within a single day, Nara Lushan verified the effects of all six medicines.
Every single one matched the descriptions perfectly.
"I can't analyze most of the ingredients… what an incredible secrecy method."
"Looks like I can only purchase them in bulk directly from Uchiha Sora—and quickly."
He could already foresee how explosive the demand would be once the Body Tempering Pill's effects became known.
Supply would inevitably become scarce.
Acting early was essential.
"Mm… I should bring in the Yamanaka and Akimichi Clans as well. We share fortune and hardship together—can't let short-term profit damage our alliance."
That very night, Nara Lushan invited the current clan heads of the Yamanaka and Akimichi Clans.
He explained the cooperation with Uchiha Sora regarding medicinal supply and the Body Tempering Pills in detail.
He especially emphasized the pill's terrifying effectiveness.
"Lushan, are you serious? A 2–3x increase in taijutsu training efficiency?"
Akimichi Chongshan shot to his feet, asking urgently.
Everyone knew the Akimichi Clan were large-bodied individuals who relied on their Expansion Techniques.
At first glance, they appeared to be a taijutsu-focused clan.
But that wasn't entirely accurate.
They primarily relied on chakra and Expansion Techniques, with taijutsu as support.
By consuming large amounts of food, they stored energy as fat, which could then be rapidly converted into chakra for combat.
Chakra could be replenished through eating—but physical conditioning and taijutsu required long-term training.
And their bulky bodies made that training even more difficult.
This resulted in Akimichi clan members being relatively weak in the early and mid stages.
As for late game?
Ninjas were a life-consuming profession—they could die at any time on missions.
What late game was there?
So upon hearing about such a pill, how could he not be excited?
"If the effect is real, then this is a miracle drug. It would also be extremely valuable to the Yamanaka Clan—though we should confirm whether there are side effects."
Yamanaka Lan spoke up thoughtfully.
Although their clan specialized in Yin Release techniques, their physical abilities were a major weakness.
If they could improve their bodies, it would greatly enhance their survival.
Moreover, stronger physiques would also improve mental energy, strengthening their Yin Release abilities.
"I've already tested it. The effects are confirmed, and there are almost no side effects. The only limitation is that it can only be taken once per day."
Nara Lushan replied.
"Then this really is a divine medicine! Lushan, introduce us to Uchiha Sora—we want to place large orders!"
Akimichi Chongshan and Yamanaka Lan spoke at the same time.
"Of course."
Nara Lushan smiled.
"I knew you'd want this—that's why I called you here."
"But we'll have to wait four days. Uchiha Sora will come to deliver the first batch of medicinal materials. At that time, we can place our orders together. He'll definitely give us priority."
"Other than the Uchiha Clan itself, no one should be ahead of us."
He could sense Uchiha Sora's goodwill during their previous meeting.
And since Sora needed their supply, there was no need to worry.
"That's good! We'll leave this matter to you!"
Both expressed their gratitude.
"What are you saying? Our three clans stand as one—good things must be shared."
"Haha! Exactly—brothers!"
"Brothers!"
