Chapter 449 - Chapter 449 – Has She Always Been This Brave?

On the way back, Ada asked cautiously, "Um… we still don't know your name."

Without turning his head, the man replied, "Mirai. Uchiha Mirai."

"Uchiha… Mirai?"

A flicker of surprise flashed through both Ada and Daemon's eyes.

They had sworn loyalty to Kara since they were very young, and had been treated like lab rats in Amado's laboratory ever since.

It was only after awakening their powers that they became a threat to Jigen. He ordered their disposal, so they had no choice but to go into stasis, hiding away to escape certain death.

Because of that, the name "Uchiha Mirai" meant nothing to them.

Ada paused, then said with a flattering smile, "A powerhouse like you must be a big name in the ninja world, right?"

Mirai replied indifferently, "No need to probe. Once you're back in Konoha with me, everything will become clear."

Hearing that, Ada gave up on further questions.

But Daemon, walking beside them, couldn't help but ask, "Mirai-sama, can I ask you a few questions?"

Mirai nodded. "Go ahead."

"I want to know… why didn't my ability work on you?"

Daemon's face was filled with confusion.

His special dojutsu reflected any hostile intent back at his enemies—yet in that fight, Uchiha Mirai had clearly intended to kill him. So why hadn't it worked?

At his question, Mirai came to a stop. He pointed to an ant crushed beneath Daemon's foot.

"When you kill an ant, do you feel any hostility toward it?"

Daemon froze for a second—then a wave of conflicting emotions surged inside him.

He'd always believed he was powerful—powerful enough that even Jigen no longer intimidated him.

But to this man, he was no significant.

If it hadn't been for the fight just now, Daemon would never have believed Mirai's words. But now he could only accept the brutal truth.

...

As the three stepped out of the cave, Mirai activated a jutsu, and the scene before them instantly shifted.

A massive underground lab appeared in front of them.

Ada and Daemon were shocked—this power…

That sensation just now—was it… a godlike technique?

Could it be that this man had also transplanted cells from Ōtsutsuki Shibai?

While they were still reeling from the possibility, Amado stepped out to greet them.

The moment they saw him, both Ada and Daemon grew visibly alert.

After all, their bodies had been modified by Amado. There was always a chance he'd planted something inside them.

The siblings had gone into hiding mainly to get away from this man.

Noticing their wariness, Amado chuckled. "Relax. We're all working under Mirai-sama now. I have no reason to harm you."

Ada and Daemon remained silent, simply following behind Uchiha Mirai.

Mirai said, "Ada, Daemon, for now, you'll stay here at the research base and assist Orochimaru and Amado in their experiments."

"If you run into any problems, come find me."

Ada and Daemon bowed respectfully. "Understood, Mirai-sama."

...

Once Mirai left, Ada turned to Amado.

"Jigen… was he killed by Mirai-sama?"

Amado nodded. "Not just Jigen. Even Ōtsutsuki Isshiki has been completely wiped out."

Ada nodded in response.

Given the power Mirai had demonstrated in battle, it wasn't surprising that he could defeat Isshiki.

But that wasn't what really bothered her.

"Amado… has Mirai-sama transplanted Shibai's cells as well?"

"No, he hasn't. Why?"

Amado looked puzzled by her sudden question.

The moment he answered, cold sweat broke out on Ada's back.

No transplantation?

Then why… why had she sensed that unmistakable divine energy from him earlier?

Could it be…

Uchiha Mirai possesses power on par with Ōtsutsuki Shibai?!

Ada fell into a stunned silence, and Amado didn't press her, simply continuing,

"Anyway, the Kara Organization is basically finished. There's an archive here—you can find everything you want to know inside."

"I don't have much time. Come with me."

...

Late that night.

Ada closed the book in her hands, her expression numb.

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, Momoshiki, Kinshiki, Urashiki…

All of them had been effortlessly slain by Uchiha Mirai.

And even Kaguya—the traitor who once defied Isshiki—was now willingly serving at Mirai's side like a maid.

Add to that the divine aura she'd felt from him earlier today…

Ada was almost certain.

Mirai… possessed power on the same level as Ōtsutsuki Shibai!

The realization shattered her worldview.

Ōtsutsuki Shibai—he was a god among gods, a mythical being.

And someone had reached his level?

It was simply unfathomable.

She had initially submitted to Uchiha Mirai out of fear and pragmatism—but now, all doubts had vanished from her heart.

In the face of such a being, there was only one way to survive—

Obedience.

"So far, it seems Mirai-sama's only real interest is… women."

"I wonder if he'll take a liking to my looks…"

Ada murmured to herself.

She was the type who always understood her circumstances clearly.

For the sake of her and her brother's future, she was willing to pay any price.

...

Thanks to Amado's help, the process of transplanting Shibai's cells went smoothly.

At Mirai's instruction, Uchiha Shisui, Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto, Hyūga Neji, and others all underwent cell implantation.

It wouldn't be long before they awakened divine techniques of their own.

Meanwhile, Ada had been subtly flirting with Mirai—often throwing seductive glances his way.

Naturally, Mirai accepted them gladly.

Ada's beauty and figure were flawless. When someone like her offered herself so readily, Uchiha Mirai wasn't about to refuse.

...

Three months passed in a flash.

Early one morning, Mirai arrived at the Hokage's office.

Inside, Amado stood beside a tall, proud-looking blonde woman.

When Mirai entered, Amado greeted him with a wide smile.

"Mirai-sama, please allow me to introduce someone."

"This is Delta, a former core member of Kara. She's here to pledge allegiance to you."
