Naruto: Uchiha Plunder System

Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Hanzo, You're the Challenger



Seeing Mirai Uchiha's confident expression, Konan found herself momentarily stunned.

Just like the last time they met.

No matter the situation, this man always seemed brimming with absolute confidence.

"Mirai Uchiha?!"

Hanzo Sanshouo, standing above the valley, frowned.

Although he had been hiding in Amegakure for a while, he had certainly heard more than once about Mirai Uchiha's reputation.

This was a ninja who possessed the legendary Mangekyo Sharingan...

Why would he show up here?

And judging by the look of things, it seemed like he had come especially to help those Akatsuki guys.

Thinking about it, Hanzo Sanshouo instinctively wanted to seek out Danzo Shimura for an explanation, but realized that Danzo and his men had disappeared at some point without a trace.

"Darn that guy..."

"And he still wants me to help him seize power in Konoha?"

Hanzo Sanshouo muttered under his breath.

Danzo Shimura had suddenly approached him, claiming he could help eliminate the Akatsuki threat within Amegakure.

The condition was for Hanzo to lead Amegakure's shinobi to assist him in taking over Konoha.

He'd even promised to form an alliance with Amegakure afterward, protecting them from the ravages of war.

Yet now the man had simply vanished, proving himself completely unreliable!

Still, there wasn't much Hanzo Sanshouo could do, so he spoke grimly, "Mirai Uchiha, I advise you not to interfere in our village's internal matters."

According to intelligence reports, Mirai Uchiha's strength was formidable. If possible, he absolutely did not want to clash with a person of this caliber.

Upon hearing that, Mirai Uchiha replied indifferently, "That's too bad. These two are under my protection."

Hanzo Sanshouo narrowed his eyes, "Mirai Uchiha, are you really challenging the 'Half-God' himself?"

Mirai shook his head, "You've got it all wrong. I'm the strongest now—you're the challenger."

After hearing Mirai Uchiha's words, fury surged inside Hanzo Sanshouo.

How many powerful opponents had fallen beneath his hand? Even today's Sannin took pride in the titles he bestowed upon them.

But now...

A mere brat dared belittle him like this.

"Kill him!"

At Hanzo's command, nearly a hundred ninjas of Amegakure charged simultaneously toward Mirai Uchiha.

A faint sneer surfaced on Mirai Uchiha's face. His pitch-black eyes morphed instantly into the pattern of the Mangekyo Sharingan.

In the next moment, terrifying ocular power surged outward, engulfing everything around them.

[Mangekyo: Five-Sense Manipulation!]

As Mirai Uchiha clapped his hands together, all the charging Amegakure ninjas fell down one after another.

Before long, the stunned look on their faces shifted into sheer horror.

Screams of agony echoed as the Amegakure ninja perished in flames within the illusion, each one collapsing into a pile of ash.

Witnessing this scene, both Konan and Hanzo Sanshouo were utterly shocked.

This was nearly a hundred elite, handpicked ninja!

With such strength, they could have easily crushed several weak minor city-states.

Yet now, all these ninja had died in an instant?

Even they couldn't comprehend how Mirai Uchiha, who had stood still the entire time, had pulled off something like this.

[Ding! Congratulations, Master! Reward obtained: Physique +1!]

[Ding! Congratulations, Master! Reward obtained: Chakra +1!]

[Ding! Congratulations, Master! Reward obtained: Spiritual Power +1!]

[...]

Hearing the system's series of announcements, Mirai Uchiha's face broke into a satisfied smile.

The power from combining the Mangekyo Sharingan with the Kurama clan's genjutsu exceeded his expectations.

Anyone unable to break free from the illusion right away would be completely consumed by it!

"Damn you!"

Seeing his subordinates die in an instant, Hanzo Sanshouo felt like his heart was being torn apart.

At the same time, a wave of fear surged through him.

Years of experience told him that when facing an unknown enemy, the best move was to retreat first.

Hanzo Sanshouo slammed both hands onto the ground. "Summoning Jutsu!"

Poof!

An ashen-gray giant salamander covered in pus-filled blisters appeared before him.

The moment it appeared, the giant salamander opened its mouth wide, spewing thick purple poison mist.

Instantly engulfing Mirai Uchiha's figure.

Mirai Uchiha formed hand seals. [Wind Release: Typhoon Passes Through!]

A hurricane-force wind blew through, instantly dispersing the poisonous mist.

Suddenly, the ground collapsed beneath them. Moments later, the giant salamander burst forth from underground, opening its bloodstained jaws to swallow Mirai Uchiha whole.

But in the blink of an eye, a flash of blood-red light tore through the air.

The giant salamander's body was cleaved clean in two, its blood and poison spraying into the air.

Inside the body of his Susanoo, Mirai Uchiha stood arms crossed, eyes cold.

"Escaped, did he?"

Looking at where Hanzo Sanshouo's figure had vanished, Mirai Uchiha didn't seem particularly concerned.

Just an old relic clinging desperately to life, having long since lost his conviction.

Letting him live out his last moments for a little longer wouldn't be a problem.

Mirai Uchiha dismissed his Susanoo and strode toward Konan and Nagato. "It's over."

Konan nodded numbly, feeling her lips go dry.

She had known Mirai Uchiha was strong, but she had never imagined that someone could reach such an extreme level of power.

Killing a hundred elite ninja at once, effortlessly defeating the "demigod" Hanzo Sanshouo...

"Hey!"

Hearing the voice, Konan snapped back to reality. "Huh?"

"Say thank you."

"Eh?"

Mirai Uchiha repeated, "I just saved your life. Shouldn't you at least say thanks?"

At his words, Konan stammered out, "Th-thank you."

Mirai Uchiha chuckled slightly and asked again, "Now do you realize the truth?"

Konan's mood sank again as she glanced at Yahiko's corpse nearby, murmuring, "It was my mistake. If I had thought of you sooner, maybe Yahiko wouldn't have died."

"Nagato wouldn't have either..."

Looking at Nagato's legs, which were nearly reduced to bones, Konan felt overwhelming guilt.

It was all for saving her that Yahiko and Nagato ended up in this state.

"It's not too late to face reality now. Cruelty and tragedy are the true nature of this world."

Mirai Uchiha extended his hand. "Come with me from now on."

Before Konan could even answer, Nagato warily stepped in front of Mirai Uchiha. "Leaf ninja, what exactly is your scheme?"

"I clearly saw it just now. This whole plot was orchestrated by Hanzo Sanshouo and Danzo Shimura of your Konoha."

Upon hearing Nagato's words, Mirai Uchiha shrugged indifferently.

Actually, even he sometimes couldn't help but admire Danzo Shimura's talent for causing chaos.

Even though the Hokage's faction was already preoccupied dealing with internal affairs caused by him, Danzo still somehow found time to interfere with the Akatsuki Organization—an issue that had nothing to do with him.

Sometimes he thought, if Danzo hadn't been so fixated on becoming Hokage and instead turned his attention outward, the entire ninja world might have been thrown into chaos.
