Naruto: Starting as the Third Hokage with Tears in His Eyes

Chapter 77 Uchiha Barbecue Team

On the east side of the reservoir construction site in the Nanhechuan Gorge, there is a large open space that has been specially cleared out.

This is the "hottest" and most spectacular place on the entire construction site.

Hundreds of Uchiha clan members dressed in police uniforms formed several huge square formations here.

Before them were huge molds made of refractory materials. The Earth Release ninjas were pouring concrete slurry, mixed according to a special formula, into these molds.

This is the work site of the "Uchiha Barbecue Team".

"Everyone, perk up!"

The head of the security forces, Uchiha Tetsuka, stood on a high command platform, holding a huge tin megaphone, and shouted in a loud voice.

Uchiha Kagami, standing beside him, looked utterly helpless.

"Tetsuka, do we really have to use the name 'Barbecue Team'? It sounds kind of weird."

Jing muttered under her breath.

"Chieftain, you don't understand."

Tiehuo replied with a serious expression, "This is an affectionate title bestowed upon us by the Hokage himself! It represents the Hokage's recognition of our Uchiha flames! We must carry it forward!"

Uchiha Kagami: "..."

He felt that the Hokage might have just been joking.

"First squad, prepare!"

Tie Huo raised the command flag high in his hand.

Below, the Uchiha ninjas in the first formation immediately took a deep breath, their chests bulging, and their hands quickly formed hand seals. Their movements were so synchronized and pleasing to the eye.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

With a sudden swing of the command flag, Tie Huo was able to command the enemy.

boom--!

Dozens of enormous fireballs, like a meteor shower, spewed from their mouths, carrying scorching heat, and landed precisely on the huge concrete molds.

Flames roared, turning the gray mud a deep red. The air distorted from the intense heat, and waves of heat rolled in, creating a spectacular scene.

"oh!!"

The craftsmen and ninjas watching from afar all gasped in amazement.

They had never seen such a magnificent sight before.

The simultaneous unleashing of the Great Fireball Technique by so many Uchiha clan members was something that could only be seen on the most brutal battlefields in the past.

Now, this destructive force, capable of crushing cities and seizing strongholds, is being used to... sinter concrete.

Under the Uchiha ninjas' exquisite chakra manipulation, the flames formed a stable, continuously burning flame field that enveloped the entire mold.

The moisture in the mud evaporated rapidly under the high temperature, making a sizzling sound, as if a huge piece of pork belly was being grilled on an iron plate.

The air was filled with the distinctive smell of burnt rocks.

"Keep the temperature between 1400 and 1500 degrees Celsius! Pay attention to the evenness of chakra output! Avoid localized overheating!"

Uchiha Tetsuka, the impartial and incorruptible head of the security forces, was pacing back and forth among the ranks with his hands behind his back, scrutinizing the performance of each clansman with sharp eyes.

He was like the strictest instructor; no mistake, however small, could escape his notice.

"Hey kid on the far left! Your fireball's off by five degrees! Trying to roast the tribespeople next to you too?"

"Hey you over there! Yes, you, Fugaku! Your chakra output is so inconsistent, it goes up and down like crazy. Are you roasting a sweet potato?! Show some of that drive you when you're chasing girls!"

When his name was called, Fugaku Uchiha, a young man with a calm face and sharp eyes, blushed slightly and quickly adjusted his chakra output to make the flames more stable.

The Uchiha members of the third squad all let out good-natured chuckles.

"Cheer up, don't embarrass yourself!"

"Haha, Fugaku, don't blush!"
