Seeing the dizzying increase in his three attributes, Mirai Uchiha showed a satisfied smile.
In a single battle, he had obtained a total of more than eight hundred attribute points.
Among them, the constitution attribute had directly broken the thousand-point barrier.
Mirai Uchiha had a feeling that, with his current physical condition, if he let Rasa attack him with his Magnet Style, he probably couldn't even fracture a bone.
And things like kunai, explosive tags, and senbons probably couldn't even pierce his skin.
Besides that, his chakra and Mental Strength were also approaching a thousand points.
Based on the traditional measurement units of the ninja world, Mirai Uchiha estimated that his chakra probably exceeded a thousand "units."
As for Mental Strength...
Mirai Uchiha felt that his eyes were already showing a vague tendency to evolve again.
Perhaps it wouldn't be long before his Mangekyō Sharingan could undergo another evolution.
As for the various ninjutsus, secret techniques... not even worth mentioning.
Those things, for his current self, aside from satisfying his "collector's mania," were not really of great help to him.
The only harvest that could be considered decent was the Scorch Style Kekkei Genkai that he had plundered from Pakura.
Being able to release high-temperature fireballs that instantly evaporated the enemy's blood was, after all, a pretty good ability.
After briefly assessing his gains, Mirai Uchiha closed his eyes and began to meditate deeply.
He had to familiarize himself as soon as possible with his newly increased attributes and turn them into a power he could control as an extension of his body!
————
Hidden Sand Village.
The wind blew fiercely, kicking up clouds of yellow sand.
The pedestrians on the street were all dressed in black, with solemn and grave expressions. Even the children, who normally liked to play, now had their heads bowed and their eyes red.
From time to time, a sob broke the silent atmosphere. Everything seemed incredibly somber.
In the ninja cemetery, many people placed flowers in front of the tombstones engraved with names, silently praying for the dead.
"Why start a war? So many people dead, is this what the village wanted?"
"Granny Chiyo can't get over the grudge for her son and daughter-in-law, so she has to use the lives of our sons and daughters-in-law for revenge?"
"The people are dead, the village has been defeated, and the days to come will probably be even harder."
"We had the best ninjas in the world, and yet we ended up like this. Chiyo is the sinner of our village!"
"Shhh... if you speak so loudly, do you not fear for your life?"
"I'm the only one left in my family. If they want to kill me, let them come."
"I'm not afraid either. We lost the Third, and now even Lord Rasa has died on the battlefield. This is all Chiyo's fault."
Hearing the villagers' discussions, the ninjas who had participated in the war and returned alive had bitter expressions on their faces.
As eyewitnesses, they understood that the defeat in this war could not be entirely attributed to Chiyo.
On the contrary, the poison and puppets that Chiyo had developed had been of great help to them in the war, making the Konoha ninjas pay a huge price.
It's just that...
Thinking of that Mirai Uchiha who had summoned a gigantic demon tens of meters tall on the battlefield, a feeling of despair invaded the hearts of these Sand ninjas.
What immense power. In a single blow, he had torn their defensive lines to shreds.
All the ninjas who stayed behind to cover the retreat were easily slaughtered by him, and the strength in which they most excelled couldn't even break his defense.
Not even when the One-Tail went on a rampage had they felt anything like it.
In a single battle, he had made their front line, which they had maintained for more than a year, completely collapse.
They, who had become ambitious after defeating the Cloud Village, had been slammed back to reality.
In a corner of the cemetery, Ebizō silently turned and headed towards the Kazekage's building.
In the Kazekage's office, Chiyo was sitting in the chair that belonged exclusively to the Kage, her eyes cloudy.
Seeing Ebizō enter, Chiyo spoke in a low voice: "Ebizō, the village will become very unstable during this period. You must pay attention and not allow people with ill intentions to take the opportunity to cause trouble."
"And... make sure the surroundings of the village are well-guarded. Don't let ninjas from other countries take the chance to attack."
Hearing Chiyo's order, a bitter smile appeared on Ebizō's face: "Sister, public opinion about you right now is very bad. Shouldn't you avoid being the center of attention for a while?"
Hearing that, Chiyo waved her hand: "I have my own plans for this matter, you may leave."
"Yes."
When Ebizō left, Chiyo silently looked towards the outside of the village.
From being a hero admired by everyone in the village to becoming a street rat that everyone wanted to beat, Chiyo felt a whirlwind of emotions.
"Well, for things to have ended up like this, in the end, it's because of my own selfishness..."
Chiyo murmured to herself, and her previously cloudy eyes gradually became firm.
At that moment, a hurried knock was heard at the door.
Chiyo frowned: "Who?"
"Lady Chiyo, it's me."
The office door opened and Pakura entered quickly.
"So you survived."
Chiyo's tone held no emotion. Pakura knelt on one knee: "Yes, Lady Chiyo."
Pakura's expression was a little ashamed.
She had managed to survive not because she was particularly strong, but because at the last moment she had chosen to flee.
"To be able to survive at the hands of Mirai Uchiha, that's not bad at all."
Hearing Chiyo's praise, Pakura's heart, which still held some resentment for being left behind, filled with joy.
Now that the Third Kazekage was missing and the war was over, the Sand Village urgently needed to elect a new Fourth Kazekage.
And at this moment, among the ninjas of the new generation, Rasa, who could compete with her, was already dead.
And she, at the last moment, had risked her life to buy time for the village's ninjas to escape...
The more Pakura thought, the more excited she became.
Perhaps now she really had a chance to become the next Kazekage!
"Just in time. I have to go somewhere, come with me."
With that said, Chiyo turned and walked out.
Pakura followed her hurriedly.
The two walked without stopping until they reached a secret room in the basement of the Kazekage's building.
As soon as she entered, Pakura saw Rasa's headless body. Next to the body, was his shattered head.
"Lady Chiyo?"
Pakura looked at Chiyo, perplexed, not understanding why she had brought her here.
And...
Rasa's body, why wasn't it buried in the martyrs' cemetery, but kept in a secret room in the basement of the Kazekage's building?
"Pakura, the village cannot be without a Kazekage. I have already made a decision."
"Guard the door for me. Without my order, don't let anyone in."
Hearing Chiyo's order, Pakura knelt, delighted: "Yes, Lady Chiyo!"
Did Chiyo mean that she had already agreed for her to be the next Kazekage?
Although Chiyo's reputation among the villagers was not good at the moment, she still controlled most of the village's power.
If she could get her approval, her appointment as Kazekage would be practically assured.
Thinking this, Pakura couldn't contain her joy.
She closed the door of the secret room tightly and stood guard silently.
Inside the secret room, Chiyo approached Rasa's corpse and placed her rough hands on his chest.
"Forbidden Jutsu: One's Own Life Reincarnation!"
