Naruto: Saving the Uchiha Clan Starting with the Plunder System

At the command, Uchiha Mirai and the other two vanished from their spots in an instant.

Just as they had practiced, the three of them split into three directions and crept toward the bandit stronghold.

With the aid of the Sharingan, Uchiha Mirai could see the surrounding scenery clearly even through the thick of night.

One, two, three...

After confirming the positions of the bandits, Uchiha Mirai walked toward them in plain sight.

The bandit on sentry duty saw Uchiha Mirai suddenly appear and was about to shout, but in the next second, he lost consciousness under a genjutsu.

Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully plundering a reward: Physique +0.5!

There really is no limit!

Having obtained another reward, the corners of Uchiha Mirai's mouth curled into a smile.

Death is like the wind, always by my side.

The slaughter had begun.

Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully plundering a reward: Physique +0.5!

Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully plundering a reward: Mental Power +0.5!

The system's notifications rang out incessantly, and Uchiha Mirai's attribute points began to climb steadily.

Because Uchiha Mirai did not bother to hide his presence, the bandit stronghold was already in total chaos.

After the initial panic, all the bandits in the stronghold surged toward Uchiha Mirai's location.

"It's this guy! Everyone, attack and kill him!"

Watching the bandits swarm toward him, Uchiha Mirai held his forehead and laughed. "Do you wish to dance as well?"

Uchiha Mirai charged into the encirclement, cutting through the ranks from left to right.

He was like an incredibly elegant dancer; every strike he made claimed a fresh life with unerring precision.

In only a moment, the bandits had suffered heavy casualties.

And they hadn't even managed to touch a corner of Uchiha Mirai's clothes.

"Damn it, this guy is a monster! A monster!"

"We're all going to be killed, run!"

"It's a Konoha ninja! Those two bastards didn't pass us any information!"

"Move, don't block my way, run for your lives!"

Under Uchiha Mirai's slaughter, the bandits began to break and flee.

"That won't do."

These were all experience points for increasing his strength, and Uchiha Mirai had no intention of letting a single one escape.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!"

"Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu!"

"..."

Uchiha Mirai performed hand seals rapidly, swiftly reaping the lives of the bandits.

After a while, the screams faded away.

The bandits had been completely wiped out by Uchiha Mirai.

"This is truly unexpected."

In the distance, Shinku Yuhi, who had been silently watching the stronghold, couldn't help but shake his head.

He had originally thought Uchiha Mirai would adopt a stealthy approach to take the bandits out one by one.

He never expected this guy to choose a direct, head-on confrontation.

As expected of a ninja from the Uchiha Clan; his actions were always so unpredictable.

Arriving at the center of the stronghold, Uchiha Mirai saw Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yuhi.

Both of them were covered in dirt, and their expressions were quite grim.

It looked like... they had suffered quite a bit.

At this moment, seeing Uchiha Mirai's pristine appearance, Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma Sarutobi both felt a sense of shame.

If Uchiha Mirai hadn't drawn the majority of the bandits away, they likely would have been in an even more pathetic state.

"What is the meaning of this?"

Uchiha Mirai frowned as he looked at the dozen or so elderly, weak, and disabled people crouching before the two.

"Mirai, they have already surrendered."

"There's no threat in letting these people live, is there?" Kurenai Yuhi explained.

"Have you forgotten what Shinku-sensei said earlier?" Uchiha Mirai said coldly. "A saintly heart toward the enemy will only get you killed."

"Hey, why are you so cold-blooded?"

"Are you telling us to kill all these old people and children?" Asuma Sarutobi demanded loudly.

The elderly and weak crouching on the ground also began to weep in unison.

"The two of you, come here."

Uchiha Mirai said calmly.

A terrifying aura surged from his body.

Having just killed dozens of people, he made Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma Sarutobi feel too intimidated to look him in the eye.

"Mirai, I... I'll listen to you."

Kurenai Yuhi lowered her head in admission, while Asuma Sarutobi clenched his fists, yet he dared not defy Uchiha Mirai's order.

Just as the two were about to leave, a sudden change occurred.

The bandits on the ground grabbed handfuls of dirt and threw them at Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yuhi.

"You brat, you really are ruthless!"

Two puffs of white smoke rose, and two of the old women in the crowd revealed ferocious expressions, launching a simultaneous attack on Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma Sarutobi.

"Oh no, they're ninjas!"

Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yuhi's faces changed.

They never imagined that among these seemingly harmless elderly and weak people, two ninjas using the Transformation Jutsu were hiding.

"We can't dodge it!"

Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yuhi closed their eyes in despair.

At such close range, with the enemy launching a sneak attack while they were completely off guard, they had no chance to react.

Slash!

Slash!

Two sounds of blades piercing flesh rang out. Uchiha Mirai had moved faster than them, using his long blade to slit the throats of the two attacking ninjas.

As the two bodies hit the ground, the system's notification rang in Uchiha Mirai's mind once more.

Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully plundering a reward: Chakra +1!

Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully plundering a reward: Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!

Ignoring the voices in his head for the moment, Uchiha Mirai looked at Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma Sarutobi. "You handle the rest."

Although he could gain rewards by killing the remaining people himself, if he could help Kurenai and Asuma adapt to their identities as ninjas as quickly as possible, a few attribute points were nothing.

After all...

For a long time to come, they would be his teammates.

Chapter 18: A Bountiful Harvest

Under Uchiha Mirai's watchful gaze, Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma Sarutobi picked up their kunai and killed the remaining bandits.

After finishing, Kurenai Yuhi walked cautiously up to Uchiha Mirai.

"Mirai, I won't do this again. Please don't be angry, okay?"

"I'm not angry. You just need to remember today's lesson."

Uchiha Mirai patted Kurenai Yuhi's head and said softly.

He didn't feel much anger toward Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma Sarutobi's actions.

Unlike him, Kurenai and Asuma were only ten years old, and this was their first time experiencing such a situation; it was normal for them to hesitate.

As long as they learned their lesson, that was enough.

"Mirai, thank you for this time."

"From now on... I'll listen to you."

Asuma Sarutobi said, still shaken.

If Uchiha Mirai hadn't intervened earlier, he might have already been dead.

"Hm? What did you say?"

"I said thank you, from now on I'll listen to you."

"Speak up, did you not eat?"

"I said thank you for saving me, I will never defy your orders again."

Asuma Sarutobi shouted.

Uchiha Mirai patted Asuma Sarutobi on the shoulder. "I still prefer your previous rebellious attitude. Please go back to that."

Asuma Sarutobi gritted his teeth. I knew I couldn't get along with this bastard...

While they were talking, Shinku Yuhi arrived as well.

He patted Uchiha Mirai's shoulder in gratitude.

If Mirai hadn't acted in time, things would have been troublesome this time.

"You go ahead and lecture those two; I'm going to rest for a while."

Uchiha Mirai walked to an empty space nearby, sat down, and opened the system panel.

Name: Uchiha Mirai Physique: 45 Mental Power: 42 Chakra: 29 Kekkei Genkai: Sharingan Ninjutsu: ...Wind Release: Great Breakthrough! Other: ...

Compared to before, his Physique had increased by 7 points, Mental Power by 8 points, and Chakra by 1 point.
