Uchiha Mingyou

Year 47 of Konoha.

The Third Kazekage of the Land of Wind was assassinated by Sasori. Seizing the opportunity, Sunagakure joined forces with the other three major ninja villages to launch the Third Ninja World War against Konoha.

Konoha was besieged on all sides at the time, yet it still did not fall behind and stubbornly fought against the major ninja villages.

That year, Uchiha Mikoto, the wife of the Uchiha Clan's patriarch, gave birth to a pair of twin brothers.

One of them was Uchiha Itachi, a genius ninja of Konoha's new generation.

At the age of seven, he successfully graduated early from the Ninja Academy with his outstanding strength.

At eight, he directly awakened the Uchiha Clan's Kekkei Genkai, the Sharingan.

At ten, he was promoted to Jonin through his exceptional strength and successfully joined the Anbu.

The other was Uchiha Mingyou, Konoha's useless ninja of the new generation.

He only learned how to gather Chakra at the age of six.

After entering the Ninja Academy at six and a half, he successfully took last place with the weakest strength.

Throughout his time at the Ninja Academy, no one had ever been able to shake his position at the bottom.

Even the Three-Body Technique required for the graduation examination only barely reached a passing score after he repeated a year.

Mingyou had often been mocked by his classmates at school. When he returned home, his parents could only shake their heads and sigh at the sight of him.

The Uchiha Clan members also treated Mingyou with cold words and disdain.

Even his seven-year-old younger brother, Second Pillar, was far stronger than Mingyou and could already use some Fire Release.

"God, you sent me to the Ninja World just so I could suffer this humiliation?"

Uchiha Mingyou sat in a forest, raised his head toward the sky, and cried out helplessly.

Mingyou truly was a transmigrator. After being pursued by tens of thousands of people on Water Sphere and falling off a cliff, he woke up again to find himself in the world of Naruto.

At the time, held in the arms of the young and beautiful Uchiha Mikoto, Mingyou simply could not believe it was real.

But as he gradually grew older, Mingyou slowly accepted reality. He really had transmigrated.

Transmigration was one thing, but why did he have to become a good-for-nothing?

It was now Year 58 of Konoha.

If he remembered correctly, Uchiha Itachi would accept Shimura Danzō's orders this year and carry out the plan to destroy the Uchiha Clan.

That guy Itachi could even kill his own parents. As his useless and incompetent brother, Mingyou was probably unable to escape the fate of death either.

"Could I really only wait to die?"

Rumble—

At that moment, a thunderclap suddenly rang out in the sky.

Mingyou only felt a dazzling flash of light pass before his eyes. Immediately afterward, his whole body went numb, and he could not help convulsing.

Ding! God-tier Replication System activating. Progress: 10%, 20%.

"System? Has my time to rise up really come?"

Mingyou was overwhelmed with excitement. His cheat had finally arrived.

Installation complete. Notice: You may replicate the attributes and abilities of all ninjas within one hundred meters of you.

Including Ninjutsu attributes, Ninjutsu talent, Kekkei Genkai, Ninjutsu skills, Chakra reserves, and so on.

"Hey, Brother, what are you doing over there?"

Young Second Pillar appeared at some point. Looking at Mingyou grinning foolishly, he felt rather speechless.

He had thought his useless older brother was cultivating diligently here, but it seemed he had still overestimated Mingyou.

"N-Nothing." Mingyou smiled awkwardly.

Turning around, he saw faint energy clusters floating around Sasuke's body.

Some of those clusters were pale blue energy the size of fists, while others were red energy the size of thumbs.

The energy clusters drifted through the air and gathered toward his body.

You have replicated one portion of overflowing Genin Chakra. Chakra Reserves +2.

You have replicated one portion of Fire Attribute Chakra experience. Fire Release Ninjutsu comprehension +1.

"See you, Sasuke. I'm heading back first."

Mingyou left Sasuke alone to train and quietly started walking back.

Mingyou could clearly feel that his strength had improved. This was only from replicating Sasuke, a Genin who had not even graduated yet.

If he replicated every member of the Uchiha Clan, Mingyou would definitely be able to awaken the Sharingan.

Before long, Mingyou returned to the entrance of the Uchiha Compound.

The Uchiha Clan members passing in and out nearby also had energy clusters of various colors around them.

When Mingyou came within one hundred meters of them, the system began absorbing all those clusters.

You have replicated one portion of overflowing Sharingan Eye Power. Eye Power +2.

Mingyou felt the red cluster envelop his eyes as a scorching energy began to merge with them.

You have replicated one portion of overflowing Sharingan Eye Power. Eye Power +1.

You have replicated one portion of overflowing Sharingan Eye Power. Eye Power +2.

Notice: Your Eye Power has reached the evolution requirement. Begin evolution?

"Evolve, quickly."

Mingyou gave the command impatiently.

Evolution successful.

Sharingan: LV1 (36/200)

Mingyou tried channeling the Chakra within his body into his eyes and felt a scorching, swollen pain in his eyeballs.

As his crimson eyes turned, a black tomoe suddenly appeared.

"Is this the ability of the One-Tomoe Sharingan?"

Mingyou's field of vision was more than twice as broad as before.

The moment the children in the distance threw their shot puts, Mingyou could already predict where the shot puts would land.

This was the One-Tomoe Sharingan's ability of perception and prediction.

Mingyou was immediately in high spirits and leisurely wandered around the compound.

The Eye Power and Ninjutsu experience drifting over from time to time filled Mingyou with excitement.

You have replicated one portion of overflowing Sharingan Eye Power. Eye Power +1.

You have replicated one portion of overflowing Jonin Chakra. Chakra Reserves +6.

You have replicated Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique and Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique.

After Mingyou had wandered through the enormous Uchiha Compound, his Sharingan had already accumulated enough Eye Power to advance to Three-Tomoe Sharingan.

Even his Chakra reserves had reached the Chunin level.

Sharingan: LV3 (603/2000)

Chakra Reserves: LV2 (296/600)

"The Three-Tomoe Sharingan's ocular techniques really are powerful."

Mingyou deactivated his Sharingan and sighed inwardly.

In the Three-Tomoe state, its perception, copying ability, Genjutsu ability, and everything else had increased by a full three times compared to before.

"Mingyou, shouldn't you be training at this hour?"

Uchiha Itachi, dressed in a gray vest, walked over from the distance and greeted Mingyou.

You have replicated one portion of overflowing Sharingan Eye Power. Eye Power +38.

You have replicated one portion of overflowing Jonin Chakra. Chakra Reserves +32.

"Itachi, I'm not training today."

"My talent is poor. No matter how much I train, it'll only amount to that much. I might as well walk around and clear my head."

Mingyou awkwardly scratched the back of his head.
