Chapter 19 - Chapter 19: Power Increase and the Visit from Kakashi and Guy

Time flies.

Two more months passed in the blink of an eye.

During these two months, Mirai Uchiha had not rested a single day.

Taking on missions, executing missions...

She acted like an unceasing machine.

Her reputation also gradually spread throughout the village.

Almost every ninja in Konoha knew that among the newly promoted genin, a mission fanatic had appeared.

During this time, Kurenai Yūhi had asked Mirai Uchiha several times, indirectly, if she lacked money, telling her that she could ask her father to lend her some.

After asking several times without receiving a clear answer, Kurenai Yūhi had no choice but to give up, merely reminding Mirai Uchiha to be careful when carrying out her missions.

Although the intense pace of the missions also left Mirai Uchiha exhausted, the rewards had been abundant.

In two months, in addition to the daily combat rewards, she had obtained a total of 140 attribute points.

Thanks to her efforts, the problem of bandits in the Land of Fire had been significantly reduced.

[Name: Mirai Uchiha]

[Constitution: 105]

[Mental Strength: 92]

[Chakra: 59]

[Kekkei Genkai: Sharingan]

[Ninjutsu: ...]

[Others: ...]

Looking at her attribute panel, a satisfied smile appeared on Mirai Uchiha's face.

After this period of accumulation, her physical condition had multiplied several times over.

Although her appearance was still that of a teenager, both in strength, speed, and endurance, she was no longer at all inferior to a jōnin.

As for her spiritual strength, Mirai Uchiha could feel that her Sharingan was already showing a weak tendency to evolve again.

It probably wouldn't be long before she evolved it into a three-tomoe Sharingan.

In comparison, her chakra had not increased as much.

But there was nothing to be done about it. Most of her attribute points came from killing bandits, and most of them were common folk, so the rewards from looting mainly focused on Constitution and Mental Strength.

With my current power, if I faced Kakashi Hatake again, I could probably crush him directly, Mirai Uchiha thought to herself.

In his early stages, Kakashi was considered one of the most talented ninjas, but even then, he was far below her.

And most importantly...

Even the greatest geniuses, after going through the initial period of rapid growth, enter a phase of stagnation.

Aside from Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, this applied to people like Kakashi, Obito Uchiha, Nagato, etc.

Wanting to take another step forward was as difficult as climbing a mountain.

But she didn't have that worry. As long as she kept looting attribute points, her power could continue to grow endlessly.

That was the charm of being able to assign points!

Unfortunately, bandit missions had run out lately, and higher-difficulty missions required the entire ninja team to participate.

It was clear that Kurenai Yūhi and Asuma Sarutobi still did not have the required strength.

Therefore... for the next period, she would have to slow down a bit.

However, Mirai Uchiha wasn't too worried about it.

After increasing her power, she also needed some time to adapt.

Otherwise, it would be like Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, who had immense power but didn't know how to use it, which would be a waste.

Knock!

Knock!

Knock!

A few knocks on the door brought Mirai Uchiha out of her thoughts.

"Kakashi?"

Upon seeing the young man with white hair standing outside the door, Mirai Uchiha's expression was one of surprise.

Why did it feel like the gaze Kakashi was giving her was filled with resentment?

"So no one has the right to challenge you without first defeating me?" asked Kakashi Hatake, looking at Mirai Uchiha with an annoyance he didn't try to hide.

It was then that Mirai Uchiha realized that, beside the door, Might Guy, dressed in a tight green suit, was standing shyly.

"Heh, heh, heh..."

"Mirai, Kakashi insisted on bringing me to look for you."

Seeing the two of them, Mirai Uchiha understood the situation.

Kakashi must have heard about the conversation she had with Might Duy in the Mission Hall, which was why he had come to find her with Might Guy.

Although what he meant to say and what Might Duy understood were completely different things, in this situation, there was no need to explain anything.

"I lost last time, but that doesn't mean you're stronger than me."

"Today we are going to compete. Whoever loses will be Guy's training partner from now on," said Kakashi Hatake in a serious tone, looking at Mirai Uchiha.

As Konoha's former number one genius, he had his own pride.

That Mirai Uchiha had beaten him once didn't mean she could always beat him.

The last time was because he hadn't expected Mirai Uchiha to decipher his tactic. In a rematch, Kakashi didn't believe he would lose to her again.

"Too bad."

"Let's go."

Mirai Uchiha, seeing Kakashi Hatake's aggressive look, didn't say much more. She turned around and led them to an empty training field.

Seeing the two of them standing across from each other, Might Guy's face was filled with excitement.

"Two geniuses facing off in a duel to decide who is the best!"

"This is the flame of youth!"

"How moving!" Tears appeared in Might Guy's eyes.

Mirai Uchiha had no doubt that if Might Duy were here, father and son would be putting on a scene of crying while hugging.

"Unlike last time, this time I will go all out, so... be careful."

Kakashi Hatake unsheathed his tantō and held it in his hand, his sharp gaze fixed on Mirai Uchiha.

Mirai Uchiha said nothing, simply unsheathing her long sword and gesturing for Kakashi to come closer.

"Damn you!"

Kakashi snorted, activated the Body Flicker Jutsu, and appeared instantly in front of Mirai Uchiha, launching a flurry of attacks.

Her speed... it's too slow, Mirai Uchiha thought to herself as she observed Kakashi Hatake's movements.

Although Kakashi's movements were faster than last time, for her, it was even easier to counter them.

The last time, she needed to activate her Sharingan to keep up with Kakashi's moves. This time, she could see them clearly without even activating it.

With just a few casual counterattacks, she forced Kakashi to work hard to defend.

"Incredible!"

For the current Might Guy, Mirai Uchiha and Kakashi's strength far surpassed his own.

Watching the two face off at breakneck speed in a taijutsu battle was a visual feast for him.

This guy... had he been holding back last time?

Might Guy couldn't feel it, but Kakashi was growing increasingly alarmed as he fought.

Mirai Uchiha hadn't only not activated her Sharingan, but with just a few casual counterattacks, she had him on the ropes.

It was as if...

Their forces were not on the same level at all.

"Kakashi, surrender."

"Not a chance!"

Kakashi Hatake forced Mirai Uchiha to step back with a blow from his sword and quickly increased the distance between them.

"Ushi - U - Saru!"

Kakashi Hatake's right hand became covered in electrical arcs, emitting a high-pitched sound like a thousand birds singing in unison.

"Chidori!"

With a muffled cry, Kakashi's body shot toward Mirai Uchiha like an arrow fired from a bow.

His speed was such that Might Guy stood there, mouth agape in shock.

"Mirai, be careful!" warned Might Guy urgently.

CRACK!

A sharp sound rang out.

Time seemed to stop. Kakashi Hatake's right hand was caught by a single hand from Mirai Uchiha, while a pair of crimson red Sharingan eyes slowly spun.

"Kakashi, with such a dangerous jutsu, you'd better be more careful when using it."
