Naruto: Saving the Universe by Stealing Attributes

Pakura gently rested her hand on her abdomen, detailing her current predicament to Uchiha Mirai.

Finally, she looked at Mirai and asked in a grave tone, "Mirai, what should I do now? Should I take the chance to assassinate the Daimyo of the Land of Wind?"

Pakura didn't dare to act alone, but with Mirai's backing, her courage grew.

However, upon hearing her suggestion, Mirai simply shook his head, his expression calm yet firm.

"Pakura, don't assassinate the Daimyo."

"Publicly oppose his policies instead. Even if it means losing your position as Kazekage, it doesn't matter."

"When those who oppose you experience the consequences firsthand, they'll realize what truly needs to be done."

"Experience consequences?" Pakura frowned. "Do you mean to take action against the shinobi of Sunagakure?"

Mirai's voice remained steady. "If we want to unify the ninja world, everyone must learn to fear us."

"Without bloodshed, any future reforms will face insurmountable resistance."

"Would you prefer to sacrifice innocent people or let these radical opponents pay the price?"

Pakura fell silent, struggling with the weight of his words.

If she could, she wouldn't want anyone to die.

Seeing her hesitation, Mirai spoke again. "Pakura, having witnessed the darkness in your village, surely you wouldn't want the next generation to endure the same pain?"

His words struck a chord, and Pakura finally steeled her resolve.

She nodded resolutely. "I understand. I'll do as you say."

Satisfied, Mirai gave a faint smile. "That's the right decision."

With the plan set, Pakura's expression softened. "Mirai, I feel bad for disturbing you on your birthday today."

"It's already late—why don't you rest?"

Mirai smirked, pulling Pakura into his arms.

"Not leaving tonight. Staying here."

Over the following days, dissatisfaction toward Pakura among Sunagakure's shinobi only grew.

To them, it seemed as if she was acting purely out of self-interest, dragging the entire village into poverty.

If they simply followed the Daimyo's orders, they could secure a significant financial boost.

Why openly defy the Daimyo?

Meanwhile, the radicals within Sunagakure, led by Elder Ebizo, seized this opportunity. Stripping Pakura of her authority as Kazekage, they declared war on Konohagakure.

For them, achieving profit justified the cost of lives—after all, shinobi were expendable tools in their eyes.

Facing Mirai directly was beyond their courage, but using the guise of opposing him to amass power and wealth? That, they dared plenty.

...

Konohagakure

In the Hokage's office, Uchiha Mikoto and Konan were casually eating bananas when Kurenai Yuhi burst into the room, urgency etched on her face.

"Mirai, Sunagakure's forces have crossed the border and attacked our frontline shinobi. Should we send reinforcements?"

Mirai waved her off nonchalantly. "No need. I'll handle this alone."

This was the moment he had been waiting for—the radicals seizing power in Sunagakure.

On the battlefield, Mirai could crush his opposition without hesitation.

And it wasn't just Sunagakure.

Kumogakure, Iwagakure, Kirigakure—they would all face the same reckoning.

If he didn't take this chance to exploit these villages, how could he justify his role as a unifier?

Standing up, Mirai declared, "Assemble the troops. It's time for a war address."

"Understood!"

In front of the Hokage Tower, a sea of Konoha shinobi gathered, their eyes gleaming with anticipation.

Sunagakure's declaration of war, under the pretense that Konoha had conspired against the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, enraged every single one of them.

For them, life under Uchiha Mirai's leadership had shown them what it meant for shinobi to truly take charge of their destinies.

No one wanted to return to the days when they were mere tools. Anyone attempting to drag them back to that era would face their fury.

All eyes fixed on Mirai as he stood atop the Hokage Tower and began his speech.

"Sunagakure has once again declared war against us..."

"Whatever their reasons may be, this reckless disregard for life will not be tolerated!"

His words ignited murmurs among the crowd.

"Lord Hokage, we'll crush those Sunagakure fools!"

"Exactly! They're no match for us!"

"No matter how many times they wage war, victory will always belong to Konoha!"

Mirai raised his arm, silencing the crowd.

"I will not allow the sacrifices of those I hold dear to be in vain."

"That's why… this time, I'll go alone to obliterate the ambitions of Sunagakure's radicals."

The crowd erupted in shock.

One man, against an entire village?

Even the legendary First Hokage hadn't done such a thing!

Yet, their surprise quickly turned into awe.

This was the true embodiment of the Will of Fire.

Compared to Mirai, what were the former Hokage, like Hiruzen Sarutobi, worth?

"This is the Hokage we deserve! I'd gladly give my life for someone like him!"

"Yes! A leader willing to shoulder everything alone—how selfless can he be?"

"Long live the Fourth Hokage! We'll follow you to the ends of the earth!"

Amid the chants, Minato Namikaze smiled faintly. Losing the Hokage position to Mirai didn't feel unjust at all.

Might Guy enthusiastically punched Kakashi Hatake on the shoulder.

"Kakashi, I wish I could have such youthful energy as Mirai!"

Kakashi rolled his eye in exasperation. "Guy, I honestly admire how you keep bouncing back from Mirai's constant blows to your ego."

He had long given up trying to keep up with that monster.
