Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: The formidable Sage Body, the Chūnin Exams are approaching

In the room, Mirai Uchiha was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, meditating.

After a long while, he opened his eyes, and a sharp glint flashed through them.

"So this is the power of the Uzumaki Sage Body?"

"It truly is formidable."

Mirai Uchiha murmured with some excitement.

After his body transformed into the Uzumaki Sage Body, the amount of chakra inside him multiplied by tens of times.

He went from having the chakra of an ordinary elite Jōnin to becoming an existence similar to a "tailed beast."

If he had to face Rasa now, he was completely confident he could wear him out to death!

In addition to that, in terms of Mental energy and physical constitution, his body had also undergone a drastic change.

In summary... even if his three main attributes had not increased numerically, Mirai Uchiha's strength had taken a qualitative leap compared to before.

The most crucial thing was that, now that his constitution was that of an Uzumaki Sage Body, it meant that every attribute point he looted in the future would be enhanced on the foundation of the Uzumaki Sage Body.

In other words, the quality of the increase for each point of constitution, chakra, or spiritual energy obtained in the future would probably be several times greater than before!

After feeling the changes in his body, Mirai Uchiha stood up, activated the barrier he had placed in the room, and directly opened the Eight Inner Gates.

"First Gate, the Gate of Opening: open!"

"Second Gate, the Gate of Rest: open!"

"Third Gate, the Gate of Life: open!"

"..."

"Sixth Gate, the Gate of Joy: open!"

Opening six gates in a row, Mirai Uchiha's body was filled with a violent aura.

If he hadn't activated the barrier beforehand, such a violent chakra would probably have caused a panic in the village.

In fact... Mirai Uchiha had a vague feeling that, with his current physical state, he could probably try to open the seventh of the Eight Inner Gates: the Gate of Shock.

But the energy that the seventh gate could unleash was simply too great. Even with a prepared barrier, Mirai Uchiha couldn't guarantee that no one outside would notice.

So, after thinking about it for a bit, he decided to give up on the idea.

A moment later, Mirai Uchiha took a deep breath and deactivated the Eight Inner Gates.

A wave of fatigue washed over him, but a smile of satisfaction appeared on Mirai Uchiha's face.

Compared to the last time, after opening the Eight Inner Gates, not only was he able to maintain them for longer, but the side effects were also much smaller.

"We'll see tomorrow."

After getting a general idea, Mirai Uchiha didn't push himself any further and lay down on the bed, falling into a deep sleep.

The next day.

Mirai Uchiha got up and stretched his body. Aside from a slight stiffness, he found nothing abnormal.

"As expected of the Uzumaki Sage Body, this recovery speed is beastly."

Mirai Uchiha couldn't help but praise it.

He had to remember that, after his battle with Rasa last time, it had taken him more than half a month of recovery to barely return to his peak condition.

But now, he had recovered with just one night of sleep...

The difference was self-evident.

"If the Uzumaki Sage Body is already this strong, how powerful must the legendary perfect sage body be?"

...

With the fall of the last golden leaf to the ground, the cold winter wind began to make the pedestrians on the street instinctively shrink their necks.

On such a desolate day, two green figures, steaming all over their bodies, came running out of a distant dense forest while walking on their hands.

"Guy! The Chūnin Exams are about to be held, you must work even harder!"

"I will, Father!"

"Come on, we're almost at the finish line, hang in there, I'll treat you to ramen!"

"Waaaaah!!!"

The two entered Ichiraku Ramen shouting: "Boss, four large bowls of chashu ramen."

"Right away, please wait a moment."

After ordering, Might Guy and Might Dai found a corner to sit in. Shortly after, they were served four steaming and hearty bowls of ramen.

"Enjoy your meal."

The sound of slurping noodles was heard, and in a short time, the four bowls of ramen were wiped out, without a drop of soup left.

When they finished eating, a black-haired young man with a handsome and cold air entered through the door.

"Mirai!"

Might Guy, upon seeing the young man, stood up excitedly and waved.

"Guy?"

"Uncle Dai?"

Seeing Might Dai and Might Guy, Mirai Uchiha sat down next to them.

"Mirai, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to run into you here."

"My treat today."

Might Dai said generously, waving his hand.

"Uncle Dai, you'd better save your money to buy some meat and replenish your nutrients."

"I have my own money."

Mirai Uchiha shook his head, refusing Might Dai's kindness.

Ichiraku's ramen wasn't cheap, and the lives of the two had always been very frugal. He didn't want them to spend extra on his account.

"Mirai, my father has money now."

"Huh? Where have you two struck it rich lately?"

Hearing Mirai Uchiha's joke, Might Dai laughed out loud: "Speaking of which, it's actually thanks to you."

"Thanks to me?"

Seeing Mirai Uchiha's confusion, Might Guy immediately explained: "That's right, thanks to you, Mirai, my father can earn a lot of money now!"

"What exactly happened?"

Mirai Uchiha was even more confused.

He hadn't done anything, had he?

"Mirai, a month ago you came back from the front. At that time, thanks to the Eight Inner Gates, you managed to stop Rasa and two Jōnin from the Sand Village."

"When the news reached the village, my father was personally summoned by the Third Hokage."

"After a detailed evaluation, Lord Hokage personally promoted my father to Jōnin."

"Now my father's income is much higher than before."

"And... after my father handed over the training method for the Eight Inner Gates to the village, he also received a large reward."

Might Guy looked at Mirai Uchiha with gratitude.

Not only had he encouraged him by calling him a genius of hard work, helping him find self-confidence, but he had also freed his father from the title of "eternal Genin." He was, simply put, the benefactor of their family.

"So that was it. Then I won't be modest today."

After understanding the situation, Mirai Uchiha didn't continue to refuse and directly ordered a deluxe ramen.

Since they weren't short on money, to keep refusing would be a bit pretentious.

"Mirai, I haven't seen you lately, what have you been busy with?"

Might Guy asked with curiosity while he waited.

In the last month, Mirai Uchiha hadn't sought him out to train together, which had left Might Guy a bit disappointed.

"The Chūnin Exams are just around the corner, lately I've been training with Kurenai and the others."

Mirai Uchiha explained.

Hearing his answer, Might Guy felt much better and smiled: "So that was it. I'm so envious of Kurenai and Asuma, being able to be your teammates."

At that moment, a little girl approached with a large bowl of ramen.

"Your ramen, enjoy."

Looking at little Ayame, only six or seven years old, Mirai Uchiha couldn't help but ruffle her hair: "Little sis, thanks~"

"Hey! My hair!!!"

"Mean big brother!"

Ayame pouted and ran off, angry.

After teasing Ayame, Mirai Uchiha smiled, ate a bite of hot ramen, and continued the conversation: "Guy, how have you prepared for the Chūnin Exams?"

"I can't wait!" Might Guy pumped his fist, full of fighting spirit. "We have all worked very hard for these Chūnin Exams."

"Mirai, you can't be careless, be careful not to slip up."

Hearing Might Guy's words, Mirai Uchiha silently summoned the system panel and took a look.

[Name: Mirai Uchiha]

[Constitution: 213]

[Mental Energy: 207]

[Chakra: 209]

[Kekkei Genkai: Sharingan, Magnet Style: Gold Dust!]

[Ninjutsu: ...]

[Other: ...Partial Multi-Size Jutsu, Shadow Imitation Jutsu, Uzumaki Sage Body!]

Looking at his three main attributes, all over two hundred, as well as his various ninjutsu, secret jutsus, and kekkei genkai, Mirai Uchiha smiled silently.

For him to fail the Chūnin Exams, the Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi himself, would probably have to participate.
