Back at the Uchiha clan compound.
Long before arriving, Mirai Uchiha saw a ninja from the clan standing in front of his door.
"Mirai Uchiha, the clan leader wants to see you."
"Understood."
After briefly cleaning up, Mirai Uchiha followed the clan ninja to the house of the current Uchiha clan leader: Tajima Uchiha.
"Leader Tajima."
"Mirai, sit down."
Looking at the elderly Tajima Uchiha, Mirai Uchiha sat on the floor, waiting silently for him to speak.
Sensing his calmness, a look of appreciation appeared on Tajima Uchiha's face.
"You're a good boy. No wonder you've caught the attention of the Third Hokage."
"The Third?"
"That's right, I called you here today precisely for this matter."
Seeing the doubtful expression on Mirai Uchiha's face, Tajima Uchiha didn't beat around the bush.
"Today, the Third sent someone to say that, after you graduate from the Ninja Academy, he wants to assign you to a ninja squad in the village."
"What do you think?" asked Tajima Uchiha, looking at Mirai Uchiha.
"I will follow the clan leader's orders in everything," Mirai Uchiha said directly.
At this moment, he was still in a stage of covert development and did not have the authority to oppose.
The reason Tajima Uchiha had called him was probably just to get to know him a bit more.
It would be foolish to think Tajima Uchiha was truly asking for his opinion.
As for the intentions of Hiruzen Sarutobi, he could roughly guess them.
Most likely, he wanted to brainwash him into becoming a double agent, just like Shisui Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha would later become.
That was fine.
At least...
He wouldn't easily become a target for the higher-ups in the village.
"Very well."
Mirai Uchiha's attitude greatly satisfied Tajima Uchiha. "As compensation, you can ask for something, and the clan will do everything possible to fulfill your request."
Upon hearing Tajima Uchiha's words, Mirai Uchiha thought seriously before speaking slowly: "I would like you to assign an expert to instruct me in his free time."
With his Looting System, it was natural that the stronger the person he fought, the better.
Because powerful ninjas often had some formidable trump cards.
"Well, that..."
Tajima Uchiha had thought that Mirai Uchiha would ask for money or ninjutsu scrolls as a reward, but he didn't expect him to make such a request.
Really a clever boy.
One must know that,
the guidance of an expert cannot be compared to money or a few ninjutsu scrolls.
But, at the same time, such a request did not seem excessive.
"Fugaku!"
Upon hearing Tajima Uchiha's call, a tall, square-faced young man entered from outside.
"Father."
"When you have some free time, instruct Mirai a bit."
"Yes."
...
The next day.
After classes at the Ninja Academy had ended,
After giving Yuhi Kurenai a bento that he had prepared himself for her to take home, heat up, and eat, Mirai Uchiha headed to the agreed-upon place with Fugaku Uchiha.
"First, let me see your strength."
Upon seeing Mirai Uchiha, Fugaku Uchiha didn't bother with greetings and spoke directly with an impassive expression.
Mirai Uchiha, upon hearing this, didn't hold back and immediately activated his two-bladed Sharingan.
He wasn't thinking about pretending to be weak to surprise him.
Because...
With his current strength, that would only make him look like a real weakling.
"Two blades?"
Fugaku Uchiha was a little surprised.
Having awakened the two-bladed Sharingan at this age, without any resources...
He truly deserved the title of "genius."
However,
seeing Mirai Uchiha take an offensive stance, Fugaku Uchiha frowned.
"Do you plan to fight me with empty hands?"
"Then should I use this?"
Mirai Uchiha took a wooden kunai from his tool pouch for practice.
Ninjas have high nutritional requirements, and most of their money had to be reserved to buy meat.
"Hmph! I don't have time to play house with you."
"Use this."
A trace of disdain flashed in Fugaku Uchiha's eyes as he threw a steel kunai at Mirai Uchiha.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!"
The moment Fugaku Uchiha moved, Mirai Uchiha launched his attack.
Immediately afterward, he activated the Body Flicker Jutsu, appearing directly behind Fugaku Uchiha.
Bang!
He kicked toward Fugaku Uchiha's head with a whip kick, but just as he was about to land the blow, Fugaku's arm shot up quickly and spun sharply to grab Mirai Uchiha's ankle.
"What a sly brat."
Fugaku Uchiha snorted coldly and, grabbing Mirai Uchiha, slammed him violently into the ground.
Boom!
A cloud of dust rose, and Mirai Uchiha dissipated in a puff of smoke.
"A shadow clone?"
Fugaku Uchiha frowned.
"Earth Style: Head Hunter Jutsu!"
Two hands emerged from the ground, grabbed Fugaku Uchiha's feet, and yanked him down sharply.
Puff!
Another puff of smoke rose, and Fugaku Uchiha's body turned into a piece of wood.
"Did I miss?"
The surprise attack had failed. Mirai Uchiha shook his head with regret and began searching for Fugaku Uchiha's figure around him.
Suddenly, a dozen shurikens shot toward him.
Mirai Uchiha quickly retreated, and while doing a backflip, he picked up the steel kunai that Fugaku Uchiha had thrown to the ground earlier. Then, using his Sharingan, he deflected the shurikens one by one.
At that moment, Fugaku Uchiha appeared beside him and raised his leg to kick him in the head.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
They both got caught up in hand-to-hand combat.
In just an instant, Mirai Uchiha could no longer hold out.
Whether it was speed, strength, or technique, at that moment, he couldn't compare to Fugaku Uchiha.
"Stop!"
"I give up."
Mirai Uchiha surrendered without hesitation.
He had used all his resources; continuing the fight would just result in a one-sided beating.
"Not bad, your strength," praised Fugaku Uchiha, unable to hold back.
He was a little surprised by Mirai Uchiha.
First, he suddenly attacked while throwing the kunai, using fire jutsu to obscure his vision, then used a shadow clone as a decoy, and finally revealed his true intention by attempting to control him with an earth jutsu...
The most crucial part was that the timing of his attack was perfect.
He had really broken into a cold sweat.
If it hadn't been for his quick reaction and because his opponent's speed was slightly slower, he really could have fallen into the trap.
If that had happened, he would have been completely embarrassed.
Through this battle, Fugaku Uchiha discarded the hint of arrogance in his heart.
Mirai Uchiha's strength wasn't very great, but that was only because he was still a student who hadn't graduated from the Ninja Academy, and his body was far from its optimal state.
To be able to make him feel real pressure with such a level of strength...
The future achievements of this boy would be limitless.
Mirai Uchiha was unaware of Fugaku Uchiha's inner thoughts.
At that moment, he was completely immersed in his own world.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully looting the reward: Uchiha Sword Style!]
[Name: Mirai Uchiha]
[Constitution: 8]
[Mental Strength: 21]
[Chakra: 7]
[Kekkei Genkai: Sharingan]
[Ninjutsu: ...]
[Other: Shuriken Throwing Technique, Trap Setting, Uchiha Sword Style]
With the system notification, a large amount of information flooded Mirai Uchiha's mind.
In addition to the content related to Konoha's Sword Style, it also included a vast amount of experience and understanding of combat.
In just a few seconds, Mirai Uchiha had acquired a level of swordsmanship comparable to Fugaku Uchiha's!
"As expected from the system."
"It's too overpowered."
Mirai Uchiha couldn't help but exclaim in excitement.
In this period when his chakra was still not abundant, this reward had directly elevated his combat power to a new level.
Once he calmed down, Mirai Uchiha saw that Fugaku Uchiha was staring at him.
"Mmm?"
"Have you considered what I just said?"
"What thing?"
"Impudent brat!"
Fugaku Uchiha gritted his teeth. "A true ninja must have his own weapon."
"What weapon do you want to use?"
Upon hearing Fugaku Uchiha's question, Mirai Uchiha smiled slightly.
Did it even need thinking?
"I want to use a sword!"
