Naruto, your uncle is going to be Hokage!

Listening to Namikaze Mirai's urging, Kakashi picked up the short sword. It was cold to the touch and felt slightly heavier than the white teeth his father had left him.

"There's a switch at the guard; try flipping it."

Following Mirai Namikaze's suggestion, Kakashi indeed discovered the switch on the short sword.

Use your fingers to flick it.

In an instant, his expression changed drastically.

shock!

The knife is trembling!

The vibration was so slight that it was invisible to the naked eye, but Kakashi, who was holding the hilt, could clearly feel the short sword vibrating in his hand.

To be precise, it is the blade that is vibrating, vibrating at an extremely high frequency.

Kakashi tentatively ran the blade across the tray, encountering no resistance whatsoever. It was as easy as cutting butter with a heated knife, effortlessly making a cut in the several-millimeter-thick metal tray.

"Good knife!"

Kakashi praised it highly.

This is absolutely a top-tier weapon, and it was specially designed using White Fang as a template to take into account his usage habits.

It's quite handy to use.

"Let's look at another one!"

another?

Kakashi picked up the remaining belt. The belt was made of a very special material that felt very comfortable to the touch. There was a round button in the middle of the belt.

Kakashi pressed the button.

In an instant, a viscous silver liquid seemed to flow out from the belt, spreading along Kakashi's fingers, covering his body, and forming a thin layer of armor.

"This is a waist armor made with nanotechnology. It can be worn by pressing a button and has multiple functions such as invisibility, protection, and amplification."

Nanotechnology?

Kakashi looked at the layer of armor that had appeared on his body with a strange expression.

"With your bionic prosthetic eye, high-frequency vibrating short sword, and nano-armor, you should be the strongest among Konoha's technologically advanced ninjas."

Mirai Namikaze was quite satisfied with the Kakashi she had created.

Technological ninjas are a new type of ninja born in Konoha, possessing the ability to combine technology and ninjutsu.

The Hyuga clan, wielding electromagnetic sniper rifles, and the Uchiha clan, possessing technologically advanced ninja swords, are both considered technology-based ninjas.

However, if we were to choose the strongest one, there's no doubt that Kakashi would be on the list right now.

Whether it's a bionic prosthetic eye, a high-frequency vibration knife, or a nano waist armor, they are all top-tier technological weapons.

Kakashi, with all three combined, now possesses Kage-level strength.

"Take good care of the gift I've given you. One day, I'll need you to use the weapon I've given you to do something for me."

Namikaze Mirai turned and left.

His voice echoed in Kakashi's ears, lingering for a long time.

……

Outside Konoha Village, in the forest behind the mountain.

Kakashi gripped the White Fang short sword, and his prosthetic left eye jolted, his vision suddenly shifting.

The scene in his field of vision seemed to slow down, and every tree became a target waiting for him to cut it down.

Kakashi pressed a button on his waist, and nanofluid spread out, covering his body.

Whoosh!

His body vanished instantly, flickering through the forest like a ghost. The short knife in his hand unleashed terrifying cutting power, slicing through the surrounding tree trunks as easily as cutting tofu.

As Kakashi stopped, a creaking sound suddenly came from the grove of trees behind him.

Dozens of trees collapsed almost simultaneously, kicking up clouds of dust, creating a spectacular sight!

Kakashi turned around and witnessed his masterpiece.

powerful!

This is how he feels about himself right now.

Compared to when he had the Sharingan, he is now much stronger.

Even against ninjas of the Five Kage level, excluding freaks like Namikaze Mirai whose abilities defy common sense, he was confident he could put up a fight.

However, he felt little joy.

Every gift of fate comes with a price already marked in secret.

The words that Namikaze Mirai spoke as she left echoed in his ears.

These technological weapons were not given to him for free.

He needs to do something for Namikaze Mirai.

But as for what it was, he doesn't know yet.

Chapter 142 Worldline Correction, The Newly Born Sound Village!

"In the future, the town reforms within the Republic of Fire have been remarkably effective; this is the report on the results."

In the Hokage's room, Orochimaru handed a report to Namikaze Mirai.

Namikaze Mirai looked at the report, a satisfied expression on her face, and smiled.

"Well done, Orochimaru. You might be more suited to be Hokage than I am."

His words were not a compliment.

Orochimaru not only possesses talent in scientific research, but he is also quite adept at politics and governing a country.

If Minato hadn't been his brother, he might have supported Orochimaru to become Hokage when the election for Fourth Hokage took place.

A ninja village governed by Orochimaru might just take on a whole new look.

Orochimaru, as his secretary, wielded power second only to him, and with his assistance, his life would be much easier.

"Hehe, I'm still very clear about my own capabilities in the future."

Orochimaru chuckled.

If he hadn't returned to Konoha, he might have agreed with what Namikaze Mirai just said.

He had a very high opinion of himself and was quite arrogant.

But ever since returning to the village and witnessing firsthand Namikaze's various groundbreaking achievements as an observer, even a proud genius like him has instantly lost his luster.

In the face of the future, I am nothing, am I?

This stark difference allowed Orochimaru to gain a clearer understanding of himself.

Silently supporting Namikaze Mirai from the sidelines and witnessing this wind blow across the ninja world is the best thing I can do.

"By the way, in the future, since we issued the statement, some small countries that have been oppressed by the daimyo have also had the idea of ​​a coup, but they have wavered because of the power of the four-nation alliance."

Orochimaru said this.

Namikaze Mirai eliminated the daimyo and almost wiped out the entire aristocratic class.

The current Republic of Fire operates under a completely different system than before.

If the former Land of Fire was a feudal state, the current Republic of Fire is more inclined towards capitalism and socialism.

The birth of a brand-new system, especially the unification of political and military power, was like a hammer smashing open the closed-mindedness of the small ninja villages and nations in the ninja world.

Could it still be like this?

The daimyo only possessed political power, but not military power?

How could those hired samurai and ninja possibly stop the ninja village?

Why should the funds be withheld by the big name every year?

If we just eliminate the daimyo, wouldn't everything be mine?

This idea, which was almost considered heretical in the past, has spread almost obsessively from many small ninja villages, led by Konoha, the strongest ninja village in the ninja world.

However, due to the strength of the Four Nations Alliance, these small ninja villages only dared to dream about it.

"Therefore, we need to find a leader. With a leader to guide us, those ninja villages that are watching from the sidelines will have the courage to take action."

Namikaze Mirai smiled.

"The leader?"

Orochimaru frowned.

"The future, you mean..."

He roughly understood what Namikaze Mirai meant.
