However, Might Duy's eagerness to risk his life and pledge his loyalty suddenly made Uchiha Kai's heart stir. He couldn't help but think about the Otsutsuki clan, who would later come to the ninja world.
These aliens had special abilities that were the perfect counter to ninjutsu. The flashy techniques that were once proud of in the Shippuden era became completely ineffective. Even the Susanoo was no match for a single kick from the Otsutsuki.
By that time, the most useful skill would actually be taijutsu. Even when enhanced, taijutsu would still be the most effective.
For example, after Naruto Uzumaki and Kurama used Baryon Mode, their taijutsu still proved most effective against Otsutsuki Isshiki.
So, the question was, since taijutsu would be the most useful against the Otsutsuki in the future, why not start preparing for it now?
Maybe the arrival of these aliens was still far off, but preparing in advance was always a good idea.
Moreover, if taijutsu was used well, it would also be very useful in dealing with the troublesome people within the ninja world in the future.
Didn't you see Guy's future burst that almost took down Six Paths Madara?
Although at that time, Uchiha Madara wanted to personally experience the power of Eight Gates Guy, and others had to help him to land a hit on Six Paths Madara, Uchiha Kai never said he had to single-handedly take on the Otsutsuki.
When dealing with those evil outsiders, there's no need to talk about martial ethics. Of course, we should fight side by side.
The more Uchiha Kai thought about it, the more he felt there was a lot of potential in this idea.
After thinking for a while, he suddenly asked, "Duy-san, would you be willing to pass on your Taijutsu skills? I mean, start a Taijutsu training class with you as the instructor."
The sudden question left everyone present shocked. Even the few younger ones who were chatting nearby turned to look.
What Uchiha Kai said was so surprising. It wasn't that teaching Taijutsu was a problem, but the idea of having Might Duy, Eternal Genin, teach Taijutsu seemed odd.
Konoha wasn't lacking Taijutsu instructors.
Clans like the Hyuga Clan specialized in Taijutsu.
If someone were to teach, it should be those long-established Taijutsu clans.
Having Might Duy, a Genin and civilian ninja, do it seemed completely strange.
Even Might Duy himself was stunned at first and then became very nervous. He said he wasn't qualified and that teaching others would only lead them astray. He didn't dare accept Uchiha Kai's suggestion.
In the end, it was decided to go ahead with it.
Although Might Duy himself had no confidence and was very nervous, Uchiha Kai was more confident than anyone else.
Because he truly understood how powerful Might Duy was when using the Eight Gates.
As for Might Duy's reputation as Eternal Genin, it was hard for people to believe...
But that was no longer an issue. Since Uchiha Kai had decided to do it, he had a clear plan.
Fighting games, this ancient yet competitive 1v1 game, had been popular even before Uchiha Kai traveled to this world.
Games like King of Fighters, Street Fighter, and Tekken were memories of two generations, and also the childhood memories of countless people.
In the past, when the internet wasn't well-developed and the competitive gaming atmosphere formed by the internet hadn't yet taken off, these fighting games were the representative of competitive gaming.
Now, with game arcades opening up in various regions, a special version of fighting games for the ninja world was also on the agenda.
Likewise, this fighting game could be used as a way to promote Might Duy's taijutsu, allowing him to unleash the Eight Gates directly in the game and show people how intense he could really be with a self-destructive move.
So, in the end, under Uchiha Kai's insistence, Might Duy had no choice but to accept Uchiha Kai's invitation and prepare to open a taijutsu training class.
Although others had doubts, Namikaze Minato fully supported it without question, so no one else dared to voice any objections—after all, even if the younger ones disagreed, it wouldn't make a difference.
Minato Namikaze's attitude was clear: "Although I don't understand why you think so highly of Duy-san, I always trust your judgment. Since you believe Duy-san's Taijutsu skills are enough to surpass everyone in Konoha, then he must have such strength. If you need my help in this regard, feel free to ask, and I'll do everything I can to assist."
Simple, direct, and straightforward—this was Minato's attitude.
It was under these circumstances that a bit of "Golden Spirit" emerged.
Uchiha Kai glanced over and couldn't help but comment, "Is the Nine-Tails really going to turn into a homebody fox? It's exploding with the Golden Spirit again."
That's right, this time the Nine-Tails was the one exploding with Golden Spirit. Even though it was just playing a bunch of old-school games, it was still enjoying itself immensely and constantly churning out gold coins.
Since getting the game console, it had already triggered three bursts of Golden Spirit, which was quite a stable output.
At this point, Uchiha Kai realized his emotion value lottery had reached 290/300, meaning there were only ten pulls left until the guaranteed 300.
There was no need to think twice—he immediately ignored the recently acquired Golden Spirit and went for a ten-pull.
In an instant, the system's lottery panel erupted with dazzling brilliance, as if countless lights were flickering, seeking the arrival of something wonderful, with some super amazing item about to appear.
The next moment, the light faded, and when Uchiha Kai focused, he saw that this time he had drawn a golden item, but not just any golden item—it was a dark golden color with a hint of orange-yellow.
This seemed to signify something more advanced than a regular golden item.
Uchiha Kai immediately asked the system what dark gold was, as it hadn't mentioned such an item in the lottery pool.
And then, Uchiha Kai got the answer—the dark gold was actually a golden item, just one that had been enhanced.
With the boost from the Golden Spirit, Uchiha Kai had hit the jackpot on the 300 guaranteed pull and had drawn an enhanced version of a gold-tier item.
At this moment, Uchiha Kai curiously checked and found that this dark golden item was actually a skill.
[Summon the Dead (Gold, Enhanced): Consumes a certain amount of energy and stamina. Using something left behind by a deceased person, summon their soul to aid the host.]
[Special Note: In the face of business battles on Earth in the 21st century, extreme caution is often needed. Both covert and overt assassinations targeting the host's inner circle are common tactics in business warfare. Other murder-related methods are also widely used. For example, framing the host for a murder is undoubtedly an effective strategy. To prevent the host from suffering such persecution, we must provide decisive evidence of their innocence, and even directly identify the true culprit. Therefore, we can summon the soul of the deceased to help the host testify or even identify the murderer.]
[Skill Duration: 1 hour. Cooldown: One month. PS: Skills that disrupt the boundaries between life and death should be used sparingly.]
Above is the skill that Uchiha Kai drew.
From the text description, the meaning is clear—this is a skill that can directly summon the soul of a deceased person, requiring only something they left behind in this world.
It can be said that this skill to summon the dead is quite mystical, almost like those Taoist priests in movies calling upon ghosts.
Of course, the summoned dead cannot help in battle; they can only be seen and communicate.
As the system mentioned in the skill's description, it's better not to break the boundaries of life and death unless necessary, because such things are far too shocking on Earth. It completely subverts the materialistic worldview.
