Naruto: Saving the Universe by Stealing Attributes

Chapter 138: Chapter 138: The Beginning of Change



"All chakra flows are as clear as day. In this regard, the Byakugan surpasses even the Sharingan…"

Mirai released his Shadow Clone Technique, a satisfied smile spreading across his face.

The Byakugan's unparalleled observational and perceptive abilities opened up new possibilities for his combat strategies. With this newfound advantage, he was confident he could develop even more tactics.

Activating the Flying Thunder God Technique, he returned to his courtyard, only to find it deserted.

Only then did it occur to Mirai that Mikoto and the others had likely already moved into the clan leader's estate, a privilege reserved for the head of the Uchiha clan.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Mirai activated the Body Flicker Technique and arrived at the grandest and most luxurious courtyard in the clan's district.

At the entrance, Uchiha Hachida was busy organizing a group of Uchiha shinobi, directing them as they moved furniture and made adjustments.

The moment they noticed Mirai's arrival, everyone stopped what they were doing and stood to attention.

"Captain Mirai!" they called out in unison.

"Hachida, what's going on here?"

Hachida's face broke into a grin as he replied, "Captain, it seems you've finally come around."

"With your status, you should've moved into this place long ago."

Mirai raised his hand, interrupting him. "I'm asking why you've got so many people working here."

Hachida scratched his head before explaining, "You're our new leader, Captain. Even if we didn't renovate the courtyard, it wouldn't be fitting for you to use the old furniture. Earlier today, Lady Mikoto asked me to help with the move, so I decided to freshen up the place a bit while we were at it."

Recognizing Hachida's well-intentioned gesture, Mirai nodded and said softly, "Thank you, Hachida."

Hachida quickly waved off the gratitude. "Captain Mirai, this is what we're here for. Without you, the Uchiha clan wouldn't be flourishing like it is now."

Mirai chuckled. "Hachida, your flattery is improving."

Looking dead serious, Hachida declared, "Captain, I mean every word of it. We Uchihas don't engage in empty flattery."

"Ha! Hahaha…" Mirai couldn't help but laugh, his already good mood lifted even further.

Whoever said the Uchiha couldn't flatter? This was top-tier work!

Inside the spacious living room, Uchiha Mikoto and a few others were busy preparing dinner.

When Mirai walked in, they all greeted him warmly.

"You're back, Mirai!"

"Go wash up. Dinner's almost ready."

Watching the three women bustling about, a warm sense of belonging welled up within Mirai.

For the first time since coming to this world, he felt at home.

After sharing dinner with Uchiha Mikoto, Yakumo Kurama, and Konan, Mirai waved Yakumo off for the evening. His gaze then turned toward Konan, his expression soft yet teasing.

Her purple hair was adorned with a delicate white paper flower, and her refined features carried an air of cool elegance. The graceful curve of her neck led to a figure that was both slender and perfectly proportioned. Sitting on her knees, her posture accentuated her natural beauty.

Even her petite feet, their pale skin turned slightly rosy from pressure, added to her charm.

"Have you stared long enough?" Konan's voice, tinged with a mix of shyness and reproach, broke his reverie.

Her face flushed as she met his unabashed gaze. Didn't this man realize how rude it was to look at someone so openly? She felt as though his gaze had stripped her bare.

Instead of looking away, Mirai met her eyes and replied with a faint smile, "Konan, tonight…"

"You'll need to fulfill the promise you made to me first!" she interrupted hastily, her cheeks burning.

That kind of thing…

She wasn't ready yet.

Mirai didn't push her, nodding instead. There were other matters to attend to. The groundwork had been laid, it was time to act against the Hokage faction. If Konan wanted him to keep his promise, he'd start by dealing with Danzo.

"Don't overthink it, Mirai," Konan said softly, lowering her head. "I-I'll be yours eventually…"

Her voice trailed off, and her face turned a deeper shade of red before she hurriedly left the room.

Mirai sighed, a restless energy coursing through him. Turning away, he placed a hand on the table, steadying himself.

Tomorrow, he would make his move against Danzo!

At the outskirts of the Uchiha district, Mirai activated his Byakugan and quickly located one of Danzo's surveillance outposts.

The small base was equipped with an array of surveillance tools—listening devices, telescopes, and monitors. They were clearly tracking the comings and goings of the Uchiha clan.

The root shinobi stationed there were startled by Mirai's sudden appearance. But before they could react, their consciousness faded, and they collapsed.

[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully looting: +1 Physique! ]

[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully looting: +1 Chakra! ]

[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully looting: +1 Mental Strength! ]

The system notifications chimed repeatedly as Mirai eradicated every operative.

Once he had eliminated the other nearby outposts, Mirai piled up the bodies of the Root agents and dumped them in front of the Police Force headquarters.

The sight left the non-Uchiha recruits stunned and fearful.

Even though they had undergone training, it was unmistakable—these shinobi were part of the Hokage's ANBU.

What was Captain Mirai planning?

"These shinobi have been secretly monitoring the Uchiha district. I suspect they have ulterior motives."

"Hachida, summon the clan leaders here immediately."

"Shisui, take the other Uchiha members of the Police Force and guard the district. No one goes in or out."

"The rest of you, maintain order in the village as usual."

Marking a few locations on the village map, Mirai vanished with the Body Flicker Technique.

The regular officers were left confused, but Hachida and Shisui exchanged knowing glances.

As Mirai's trusted followers, they were privy to his plans.

This was it—the time to act against the Hokage faction.

Change was coming.

Starting today, Konoha would transform.

The era of the Uchiha was about to begin.
