Back in his room, Mirai Uchiha activated the barrier he had placed around it.
After drawing the curtains and taking every precaution, he sat on the floor with his eyes closed and began to assimilate the reward he had just obtained.
Shortly after.
Mirai Uchiha opened his eyes, pleasantly surprised.
This reward had exceeded his expectations.
Just like the Uchiha clan's sword style he had plundered from Fugaku Uchiha, the reward he obtained this time from Minato Namikaze was not simply the Flying Thunder God Technique.
It included all the understanding and experience that Minato Namikaze had accumulated over time regarding the Flying Thunder God Technique.
All that valuable experience, along with the training method for the Flying Thunder God, flooded Mirai Uchiha's mind at once.
And even...
Just as when he obtained the Chidori, his understanding of the concept of space had deepened, indirectly granting him an innate talent for space-time ninjutsu.
It must be noted that, in the original story, despite how impressive the Flying Thunder God Technique was, only Tobirama Senju and Minato Namikaze managed to master it with proficiency.
This demonstrated how difficult it was to train in space-time ninjutsu.
But now, through the reward of the Flying Thunder God, Mirai Uchiha had obtained the talent to train it.
This reward was, simply put, too generous.
"First, a test."
After completely assimilating the information in his mind, Mirai Uchiha took out a kunai from his ninja tool pouch.
With a thought.
A complex Flying Thunder God marker appeared on the kunai's blade.
"Go!"
As soon as the marker appeared, Mirai Uchiha threw the kunai to the side.
The kunai shot out.
The next second, Mirai Uchiha's figure disappeared from his spot and, in the same instant, appeared next to the kunai.
"It worked!"
Holding the kunai in his hand, an expression of excitement washed over Mirai Uchiha's face.
Putting aside the unpredictable offensive potential of the Flying Thunder God Technique, just as a means of survival, it could already be considered the pinnacle of the ninja world.
It could be said that by just mastering the Flying Thunder God Technique, one was already in an invincible position from the start.
In the original story, if Minato Namikaze hadn't chosen to sacrifice himself along with the Kyūbi to protect Konoha, Mirai Uchiha truly couldn't imagine how they could have killed him.
"Now I can really go around without any worries."
Mirai Uchiha smiled to himself.
As long as he had enough Flying Thunder God markers, no one could threaten his life.
Fight if he wanted, flee if he didn't.
Minato, the one who always comes home?
Now it's Mirai, the one who always comes home!
...
Konoha's base camp on the border.
Shikaku Nara looked at Mirai Uchiha and the others with a hint of exhaustion in his eyes: "We can now confirm that the Sand Village is preparing to start a war against Konoha."
"Orders from the village: from now on, any Sand Village ninja who enters the territory of the Land of Fire will be eliminated without exception!"
"Starting today, you will operate in teams to patrol the areas around the border."
Hearing Shikaku Nara's order, Mirai Uchiha nodded and was the first to leave.
Watching his back, Shikaku Nara's gaze became somewhat complex.
He still couldn't believe that a ninja so willing to take the initiative in everything had emerged from the Uchiha clan.
...
In a dense forest on the border.
Mirai Uchiha watched Kurenai Yūhi and Asuma Sarutobi carefully setting traps, while he sat idly on a branch, discreetly leaving a Flying Thunder God marker.
It didn't consume much chakra anyway, and leaving more markers was never a bad idea.
Just then, the roar of an explosive tag echoed nearby.
Before Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yūhi could react, Mirai Uchiha's figure had already disappeared from the spot.
A kilometer away.
Three Sand Village ninjas quickly fell back as soon as they triggered the trap.
They were only genin. Now that they had been discovered, an immediate retreat was the most correct option.
But before they could get far, a young man with a longsword charged swiftly in their direction.
Seeing the young man, the three Sand Village ninjas looked at each other, and a cruel smile appeared on their faces.
They stopped, and as soon as Mirai Uchiha got close, they immediately surrounded him.
"What good luck, a brat has come to serve himself up on a platter."
"Hmph! I've seen plenty of arrogant guys like this. They see the enemy retreat and chase without thinking. In reality, they're all just conceited idiots."
"Too bad... you only get one life, and it's already too late to regret it."
The three Suna ninjas closed in on Mirai Uchiha, with expressions of excitement on their faces.
This brat looked to be the age of a recent graduate and, what's more, he was alone. It was like a little rabbit offering itself up to them.
"You're right," said Mirai Uchiha.
"Huh?" the three Suna ninjas were perplexed.
The next second, a flash of a blade shone.
The head of a Suna ninja fell to the ground.
"What?!"
"So fast!"
The two remaining Suna ninjas, seeing their comrade dead, showed expressions of shock.
Just a moment ago... they hadn't even been able to follow his movements, and their comrade had already been decapitated.
The two remaining ninjas immediately realized they had messed with the wrong person.
This impulsive-looking young man was much stronger than them.
Definitely, a ninja genius with exceptional talent!
"Retreat, separately!"
Realizing Mirai Uchiha's strength, the two ran in opposite directions. That way, at least one could escape and deliver the information safely.
Swish!
The Suna ninja, who had only run about ten meters, fell powerlessly to the ground with his throat slit by a sword.
He could feel his life fading away quickly.
However, seeing his comrade, who had already gotten hundreds of meters away in the opposite direction, a hint of relief appeared in his eyes.
My sacrifice was worth it.
Such a genius has appeared in Konoha. They must send someone to assassinate him before he gets stronger!
That information is far more important than my life.
But just before his consciousness faded, the Suna ninja, lying on the ground, suddenly saw a kunai shoot out towards his comrade, reaching him in the blink of an eye.
The ninja's heart sank, but seeing his comrade deflect the kunai, he let out a long sigh of relief.
However, the next instant, the eyes of the ninja on the ground flew wide open.
He saw the young man who had been beside him appear out of nowhere next to his comrade, piercing his heart with the sword.
How... how did he do that?!!!
Damn it, with how important this information was...
The Suna ninja's heart sank into despair, and his consciousness, unable to resist any longer, dissipated into darkness.
Mirai Uchiha cleaned his sword, picked up the kunai from the ground, and just then, the system notification sounded in his ears.
