My clan was exterminated when I was three years old, and you want me to beat Uchiha Itachi? Chapter 044

Looking at his updated attribute panel, Uchiha Kirin estimated that the growth of his Sharingan had increased his Strength, Speed, and Stamina by approximately 200 points each, bringing his total attributes close to 1000. Even among Chunin, this was considered a top-tier level of power!

And with the spoils of war system stacked on top, the speed at which he broke through the 1000-point total made him feel as if he had entered a completely new realm!

As for his Spirit and Chakra reserves, they had grown even more significantly with the increase in his dōjutsu power!

“With so many ninjutsu now, perhaps, with just enough combat experience, my fighting strength could reach the level of a Jōnin!” Combat experience was easy to acquire in Konoha; he just needed to find a place to spar with someone, simulate a few battles, and stack up the experience.

Feeling this surge of power, Uchiha Kirin couldn’t help but estimate inwardly…

Just as he was about to initiate his next simulation, he suddenly remembered: “Right, I haven’t thoroughly checked the items obtained from the simulation!”

With a flick of his hand, two silver-white scrolls were retrieved from the system space and placed on his desk.

Uchiha Kirin reached for the more neatly rolled one, gently unrolling it on the ground. His Sharingan meticulously examined its contents. There was no mistake; this was the scroll detailing how to transplant a Mangekyō Sharingan and fuse dōjutsu, along with numerous examples of eye-swapping between siblings during the Warring States period.

After rolling up the “Mangekyō Sharingan Transplant Jutsu” scroll and returning it to the system space, Uchiha Kirin turned his attention to the other, somewhat misshapen scroll: Uchiha Setsuna’s research notes.

These notes contained Uchiha Setsuna’s years of research and experience with fūinjutsu and the Mangekyō Sharingan, as well as the profound hopes entrusted to him by this master he had only known for less than a day!

After a quick read-through, Uchiha Kirin specifically committed to memory the section about sealing the dōjutsu power of a Three-Tomoe Sharingan into his own eyes. He then pressed the scroll to his chest and whispered, “Inherit the will of the Uchiha, I will…”

Uchiha Kirin slowly rose and walked to the water pipe, drenching himself with cold water. He ran his hands over his head, squeezing out the water from his hair, before finally extracting himself from the immense weight of this mission!

He then successively took out the White Zetsu flesh chunk, Uchiha Setsuna’s Sharingan, the Root ninja’s briefcase he had acquired earlier, and the giant sealing scrolls obtained from previous simulations.

According to the basic sealing methods taught by Uchiha Setsuna in the simulation, the Root ninja’s briefcase was a specialized sealing container made of chakra-infused alloy, called a sealing box:

Compared to sealing scrolls, sealing boxes couldn’t be compressed in size and had a much smaller capacity than scrolls. However, they possessed an identity recognition function and the same ability as sealing scrolls to prevent the internal items’ aura from escaping.

Furthermore, sealing boxes had a function that sealing scrolls lacked: they could achieve nested sealing—in simple terms, a sealing box could hold a smaller sealing box or a sealing scroll, whereas a sealing scroll could not hold another sealing scroll.

Combined with the special chakra-alloy casing, the possibility of breaking free from the inside was far lower than from a sealing scroll. It could be said that precious items were more suitable for storage in such boxes.

With Uchiha Kirin’s current fūinjutsu mastery and his external dōjutsu power and spiritual strength, he easily wiped away the chakra mark and seal left by the Root ninja on the box.

Opening the box, the first thing he found was a stack of explosive tags set with a chakra-triggered trap. No wonder it self-destructed when he tried to force it open earlier. Tucking the explosive tags into his pocket, Uchiha Kirin then proceeded to take out the original contents of the box one by one:

A specialized kunai made of fine steel, with both cutting edges coated in a layer of chakra metal. Its total length was an inch longer than a regular kunai. For a Chunin, this was already a relatively high-quality weapon!

He took out the kunai and hung it at his waist, then pulled out two scrolls, one large and one small.

The smaller scroll was just an unsealed sealing scroll.

But the larger one was a scroll inscribed with numerous runes. These runes looked increasingly familiar to him; they were modules from the “Barrier Ninjutsu: Sixty-Four Layers Seal.” There were a total of sixty-four multiplied by three, or 192 such modules, distributed among each Root ninja responsible for the barrier!

Finally, there was a bottle of dark red, viscous liquid rich in chakra. Based on the fūinjutsu common knowledge he learned in the simulation, Uchiha Kirin recognized it as a bottle of Root ninja blood.

Some non-Uzumaki clan sealing ninjas, due to insufficient chakra reserves, despite mastering the use of fūinjutsu, lacked enough chakra to power the seals. Thus, they developed this method of pre-storing chakra in blood. When their own chakra ran out, they could continue sealing through the chakra-infused blood!

Similarly, this blood could also be used to draw things like explosive tags. If a small barrier was engraved on the bottle beforehand, it could also be thrown to instantly trap hit enemies…

He put all the unnecessary items back into the system space.

Uchiha Kirin first unfroze the White Zetsu flesh chunk from the system, held it in his hand, and kneaded the fragments into a ball. He squeezed it; the texture was somewhere between modeling clay and king oyster mushrooms.

He then applied a seal to it, but even with the seal, the White Zetsu flesh chunk continued to slowly struggle and writhe, attempting to break free from the gaps in the seal.

“It seems White Zetsu cells have some resistance to fūinjutsu!”

What if he added Sharingan suppression?

Conveniently, Uchiha Setsuna’s Sharingan, due to a lack of life force supply, was stuck in an awkward, unstable state of semi-awakened Mangekyō dōjutsu, neither fully advancing nor regressing. Perhaps these White Zetsu cells could provide the life force for it to re-evolve!

As expected, after placing Uchiha Setsuna’s Sharingan into the White Zetsu cells, the two reacted.

First, the struggling White Zetsu flesh chunk quieted down and began to slowly envelop the Sharingan, then it became motionless.

Immediately after, the Sharingan, which had stopped rotating and was stuck in its breakthrough, began to rotate again. Although it was exceptionally slow, it still gave Uchiha Kirin a glimmer of hope.

He sealed both of them together, then sealed them again inside a small sealing scroll, and finally placed the sealing scroll into the sealing box, sealing it once more and setting his own identification password. Uchiha Kirin used his self-created “Soul Sever” as the identification password; only by using a mental attack of appropriate intensity could it be opened.

After all, a normal person wouldn’t use Yin Release ninjutsu on a box.

Finally, he threw the sealing box back into the storage space to freeze it, to be taken out when needed during simulations!

Next, came the main event: sealing Amaterasu’s black flames.
