Naruto: Saving the Universe by Stealing Attributes

A clang!

A crisp metallic sound echoed as the kunai, reinforced with steel, snapped cleanly in half, leaving not even a scratch on the impenetrable Susanoo.

"Impossible..."

Danzō's face contorted in disbelief. He had infused the kunai with Wind Release chakra, capable of extraordinary cutting power. Yet, it was utterly ineffective.

Could its defense truly be this strong?

Before Danzō could process his thoughts, Mirai controlled Susanoo's hand to seize him.

Squish!

With a slight squeeze, Danzō's body was reduced to a pulp.

However, space warped once again, and Danzō reappeared a short distance in front of Mirai.

[ Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have successfully plundered: Reverse Four Symbols Seal! ]

Hearing the system prompt in his mind, Mirai was mildly surprised.

I received a reward the last time I killed Shimura Danzō. I didn't expect to get another one this time.

Not bad.

"You brat, you can't kill me," Danzō snarled.

"Wind Release: Vacuum Wave!"

A flurry of massive, scythe-like wind slashes struck Susanoo. Yet, aside from leaving faint white marks that vanished almost instantly, they had no effect.

"Amaterasu."

Black flames engulfed Shimura Danzō.

[ Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have successfully plundered: Wood Release: Binding Technique! ]

"Curse you, Uchiha!"

Danzō reappeared once more, his gaze seething with resentment.

Facing Mirai in battle, he truly understood despair.

He couldn't even breach Mirai's defenses, yet Mirai could take his life effortlessly.

Even with ten Sharingan at his disposal, things weren't looking good.

As Danzō frantically calculated his next move, Mirai clapped his hands together.

In an instant, thick wooden tendrils emerged and tightly coiled around Danzō.

Crack!

His organs were crushed under the immense pressure, and his life slipped away.

[ Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have successfully plundered: +1 Mental Strength! ]

"He can even use Wood Release..."

"I put so much effort into acquiring a fragment of Wood Release's power…"

Revived again, Danzō looked at Mirai's Mangekyō Sharingan with envy. He had already deduced that Mirai's Sharingan could copy kekkei genkai, but to think he could replicate even Wood Release?

Danzō had spent decades trying to harness Hashirama's power but still couldn't fully control it. Yet Mirai had gained it in mere moments of battle.

If only that power were mine…

Blaming others to suppress his jealousy, Danzō silently cursed Sarutobi Hiruzen for being weak.

If only he had eradicated the Uchiha earlier, this power would have been mine.

Shaking off these thoughts, Danzō forced himself to suppress his greed. He'd already used up four Sharingan. Survival was his only priority now.

As long as he lived, he'd have a chance to rebuild.

Danzō activated Body Flicker at its peak, instantly distancing himself by over a hundred meters.

But suddenly, he felt a strange distortion, and before he realized it, his body was back where he started.

Thud!

Danzō stared in panic at the blade piercing his heart.

"This again... What is this cursed technique?"

His composure cracked.

He had thought the protection of his subordinates, coupled with ten Sharingan capable of Izanagi, guaranteed his safety. Yet, none of it mattered.

"Still relying on others to die in your place, just like when you were a subordinate," Mirai mocked.

"And now, as a leader, you send your subordinates to their deaths. Some things never change."

"You brat, you don't understand anything!" Danzō snapped.

"I can't die—not until I achieve my dream."

Mirai raised an eyebrow. "Too bad. You're not escaping this time."

With that, Mirai plunged his blade into Danzō's heart once more.

"Rasengan!"

"Wood Release: Spiked Pillars!"

"Chidori!"

One technique after another struck, and soon all ten of Danzō's Sharingan were spent.

Without them, the Hashirama cells in his right arm spiraled out of control.

Starting from his fingers, Danzō's body began to transform into wood.

"You brat... you'll join me in hell!"

"Reverse Four Symbols Seal!"

Blood erupted from Danzō's body, forming a seal meant to drag Mirai into the afterlife.

But just as he finished the hand signs, Mirai's figure vanished.

Among all the dangers of the ninja world, sealing techniques were ones Mirai refused to take lightly. There was no way he'd give Danzō the chance to trap him.

"Curse you, Uchiha…"

With resentment etched into his features, Danzō died.

After confirming Danzō's demise several times, Mirai incinerated the surrounding bodies with Fire Release, leaving no evidence behind.

Once the task was done, he activated Flying Thunder God and disappeared.

...

Deep into the night.

Shimura Clan's compound.

The luxurious estate sprawled over vast land, filled with exquisite buildings.

The Shimura Clan had been second only to the Senju and Uchiha during the Warring States Period. Under Danzō's leadership, their wealth and influence had surged once more.

With a population of nearly five thousand, their resources were unmatched.

But by the night's end, the Shimura Clan would cease to exist.

Before his confrontation with Danzō, Mirai had already issued high-level orders to summon every Shimura ninja back to the village, making his task more efficient.

As the scent of blood thickened, Mirai recalled the Uchiha Clan's annihilation.

Under the blood-red moon, Mirai began the Shimura Clan's final night.
