CONFRONTATION

Madara quickly ran to his brother's side, making sure he was unharmed. Kanji was stunned but unscathed, and the two siblings shared a silent moment of relief and gratitude.

But suddenly, something clicked in her head, and a screen appeared in her vision.

[CONGRATULATIONS, INFILTRATOR, FIRST KILL ACHIEVED]

[REWARD!, Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu, +100 coins]

This excited Madara, who had a vacant look on the outside but was ecstatic on the inside. This was more than she had expected; it was a beginning. It wasn't the best technique, but she knew it could be useful, and in this era, even Tobirama hadn't created it yet, so she could claim it as her own.

Before closing the system, she noticed that she had gained 100 coins, which piqued her curiosity about what to spend them on, so she opened the shop.

What she saw surprised her. Countless techniques and bloodline limits, like Naruto's doujutsus, were available. She saw the Mangekyo Sharingan, but it cost 10,000 coins, which was too much.

However, she was determined to become strong. If she wasn't mistaken, she would meet Hashirama in four years, and she was looking forward to that encounter, as the Mokuton was a powerful technique. With the books of Vishanti and the Darkhold, instead of substituting Hashirama's cells in her body, she could make them ancestral, ensuring she would live a long time.

She didn't want to live forever, but she wanted to unify the world, and she knew that would take time. So, she left it, knowing there was still a long way to go. She snapped out of her thoughts when Kanji spoke. "Big sister, how did you do that? I've never seen anything like it!" Her brother asked, and she just looked at him.

"I'll explain later, for now, let's get rid of the supplies," she said. They did it, and strangely, there were no issues. All the Senjus and their alliance members fought on the battlefield, and then the two of them returned to the Uchiha camp.

When the dust settled, Madara knew she had to explain her new technique to her father and the rest of the Uchiha clan. She was well aware that her ability was unprecedented in the clan and had piqued her father's curiosity.

Uchiha Tajima looked at his daughter seriously, wanting to hear her version. Addressing those present, he said, "Listen, everyone. Madara has something remarkable to share with us. Let her explain."

Madara took a deep breath and began describing how she had acquired this unique portal technique. "Thank you, father," she said respectfully, and continued, "I obtained a unique technique from the Book of Vishanti." She explained, but she knew they didn't know what this book was, so she continued, "This book is quite dangerous, and that's where I learned the technique. I acquired it in my previous battle, which left me unconscious, where an old woman gave it to me," she lied, knowing they couldn't see through her deception, "and I used it today to save Kanji and secure our supplies."

Everyone was surprised by that book. "What kind of technique is it, Madara?" Her brother Izuna asked since he was present.

It gave her a persistent headache; it was a nuisance to explain this, so she had to be more careful the next time she showed her abilities. But it also benefited her to have a reputation that struck fear. "It's a portal technique that allows me to create gateways, instantly transporting me to different places."

"That's how she saved me, father. It was incredible!" Uchiha Kanji spoke excitedly, admiring his older sister.

"Impressive, Madara. This could be of great help to our clan," her father said, proud of his daughter, knowing she was a genius unlike any they had seen in years.

An elder spoke, and his comment irritated her. "Madara, will you teach us this technique? It could make our clan even more powerful," he said helplessly and arrogantly, like most of them.

She got straight to the point, cold as ice. "I'm sorry, but I can't teach it for security reasons. It's too dangerous to fall into the wrong hands, and you don't have the right mindset to learn it," she said without further explanation, offending the elders.

Another elder spoke, emphasizing why they should be given the technique. "Safety is important, but power is equally crucial. We need to know this technique."

"I understand your ambition, but I won't take the risk. My priority is the safety of our clan, and you're not fit for that," Madara spoke with cold eyes.

Another angry elder spoke, "Madara, you're being selfish! We can't let this opportunity pass."

"I won't change my mind. This technique is not for the use of our clan. It's too dangerous. You should be thankful that I'm looking out for you," she said without losing her composure.

Uchiha Tajima, seeing the persistent argument, intervened. He knew his daughter had her reasons. "That's enough. Madara has made her decision. We should respect it."

The clan elders reluctantly accepted Madara's decision, even though they were still dissatisfied. The Uchiha clan recognized the potential of Madara's unique ability but also understood the importance of safeguarding her power.

Madara's portal ability had not only saved her brother but also opened up new possibilities for the Uchiha clan, solidifying her position as a rising star within their ranks. As they looked to the future, they knew that with Madara's newfound power and their collective determination, they were ready to face any challenges that awaited them in the ninja world.
