Chapter 369 - Chapter 369: The Eve of Graduation

Five years.

Time flew by in the blink of an eye, and five years passed in a flash.

During this time, the ninja world entered a period of relative peace.

No more wars broke out, and no more shinobi fought to the death.

Instead, with the advancement of science and technology, the ninja world had been transformed into a modernized society under Uchiha Mirai's rule.

The domain of the Divine Nation had expanded across the entire ninja world.

Uchiha Mirai had become the sole emperor of the ninja world!

Of course, compared to the changes in the world, Mirai himself had changed even more.

Ever since Orochimaru developed human cloning technology five years ago, Mirai's power had steadily increased.

Every month, he gained 3,000 attribute points.

Later, as Orochimaru refined the cloning process, the number of attribute points Mirai received each month doubled.

Over the past five years, Mirai's attribute points had increased by more than 250,000!

His three main attributes—mental strength, chakra, and physique—each increased by over 80,000 points!

...

Konoha Village.

Inside his room, Uchiha Mirai sat cross-legged in meditation.

His eyes were closed, and his breathing was steady.

With each inhale and exhale, it felt as though stars and galaxies revolved around him.

"Panel."

With a thought, a semi-transparent, sky-blue panel appeared before his eyes.

[Name: Uchiha Mirai]

[Physique:]

[Mental Strength:]

[Chakra:]

[Kekkei Genkai: Mangekyou Sharingan, Magnet Release - Gold Dust, Scorch Release, Shikotsumyaku, Boil Release, Illusion - Five Senses Manipulation, Byakugan, Wood Release, Rinnegan, Ice Release, Dust Release, Crystal Release, Explosion Release]

[Ninjutsu: … Triple Rashōmon]

[Others: Natural Energy Affinity, Senju Body, Superhuman Strength, Shikkotsu Forest Sage Mode, Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, Lightning Release Chakra Mode, Seven Swords Dance, Kagura Mind's Eye…]

[Dōjutsu: Amaterasu, Sarutahiko-no-Mikoto, Takamagahara, Susanoo, Tsukiyomi-no-Mikoto, Kotoamatsukami, , Kamui, Limbo: Border Jail, Chibaku Tensei, Planetary Devastation, Tengai Shinsei , Daikokuten, Sukunahikona, Amenotejikara, All-Killing Ash Bones, Eighty Gods Vacuum Fists, Blaze Release: Kagutsuchi, Engraved Tsukuyomi]

Looking at his total attribute points, which had surpassed 130,000, Mirai couldn't help but smile slightly.

The feeling of infinitely increasing his own power was simply exhilarating.

Compared to five years ago, Mirai now felt as though he could destroy an entire planet with a single punch.

Ōtsutsuki Kaguya? Ōtsutsuki Isshiki? They were nothing compared to him now.

At this point, the only being in the universe that could pose a threat to him was that mysterious Ōtsutsuki God, whose true strength remained unknown.

But it didn't matter. As long as he continued to amass attribute points, there would come a day when he would drag even the Ōtsutsuki God down from his pedestal.

...

As Mirai immersed himself in thought, a knock on the door interrupted his meditation.

A gentle voice drifted in from outside.

"Mirai, today is the ninja academy's graduation exam. Do you want to go watch?"

It was Uchiha Mikoto.

Hearing her voice, Mirai reined in his overwhelming aura.

Opening the door, he smiled at Mikoto. "Naruto and the others are graduating, right?"

"Then I suppose I should go take a look."

With that, he vanished in a flash.

Mikoto sighed helplessly and shook her head.

Honestly, she had wanted to go with him…

...

Ninja Academy.

Inside the lecture hall.

Uzumaki Naruto grinned confidently at Uchiha Sasuke beside him and declared, "Sasuke, after today, we'll be real ninja. Next time we fight, I won't hold back!"

Sasuke frowned, clearly irritated. "Tch, annoying."

"This time, I'll definitely take first place in the class and become Lord Mirai's disciple."

"Hmph!" Naruto pouted. "Mirai-sama's disciple should be me!"

"I won't lose to anyone in the graduation exam."

Hearing their exchange, Kankurō smirked from the back row.

"You two think you can fight for first place?" he sneered. "Do you really think you can beat Gaara?"

Annoyed, Naruto shot back, "What's it to you, dead last?!"

"What did you say?!" Kankurō glared at him.

This brat actually called him dead last?!

Unforgivable!

Just as Kankurō was about to lash out, Gaara's cold voice cut in.

"Kankurō, don't cause trouble."

Temari chimed in as well. "Kankurō, you're no match for Naruto."

Kankurō opened his mouth to argue but couldn't find the words.

In the class rankings, his performance and strength were near the bottom.

Meanwhile, Naruto and Sasuke were among the top students—both recognized as geniuses.

Compared to them, he was indeed lacking.

But…

Recalling a certain figure, Kankurō smirked at Naruto.

"Neither of you will take first place."

"I heard that she is also participating in the exam."

At those words, Naruto and Sasuke instantly looked troubled.

They knew exactly who he meant.

The undisputed strongest new student—Kurama Yakumo.

Not only did she possess the Mangekyō Sharingan and Wood Release, but she had also mastered the Kurama Clan's bloodline ability to manipulate the five senses.

Again and again, she had proven her overwhelming power in battles.

Even the strongest students—Hyūga Neji and Gaara—had been reduced to mere playthings in her hands.

Inuzuka Kiba, who had been eavesdropping, groaned.

"Why is Kurama Yakumo even taking the exam? It's so unfair!"

Yamanaka Ino sighed in defeat. "Looks like I don't stand a chance."

For once, Haruno Sakura agreed with Ino.

If it were a theory exam, she would fear no one.

But in everything else, she lagged far behind.

Akimichi Chōji stuffed the last of his chips into his mouth and opened another bag.

"The last pack before class ends!"

Nara Shikamaru sleepily opened his eyes. "Class is over?"

Lee slapped his desk and boomed, "Not yet! Shikamaru, how can you be sleeping this early? Want to come run a few laps with me?"

Shikamaru shook his head and slumped back down. "Ugh… exams are such a drag."

Hyūga Neji turned to Hinata. "Lady Hinata, do your best."

Hinata nodded. "I will."

Then, she glanced at Tenten, puzzled. "Tenten, what's all that?"

Tenten shrugged. "Just a bunch of sealing scrolls. My mom said if we have to fight, I should just smash my opponents with whatever's inside."

Hinata twitched at the sight of dozens of scrolls.

Wow. Talk about overkill…
