“Still nothing? Where on earth did that brat come from?!”
After their plan failed for the Nth time, the higher-ups of the jujutsu world let out a cry of utter despair.
Uchiha Maki is an Uchiha who, all by herself, made the entire Hidden Leaf Village understand exactly what “when a kid goes quiet, they're definitely up to no good” means.
Her shining achievements include, but are not limited to:
Using space-time ninjutsu to teleport homemade poisonous mushroom juice into her opponents' mouths, insisting it was a next-generation genjutsu.
Setting a chain of traps in the Ninja Academy to improve her classmates' reflexes, making Iruka-sensei trip eight times in one week.
The famous Hokage Rock photo spot has also suffered through plenty...
So when this menace suddenly showed up in the jujutsu world one day, the higher-ups' nightmare began.
A certain church mysteriously got struck by lightning and disappeared?
Uchiha Maki: “Natural disaster.”
Taking people away out of thin air, then making them reappear just as suddenly?
Uchiha Maki: “Domain Expansion.”
As for why she can get whatever she wants just by moving her hands?
Who knows? If asked, she'll say it's a technique. If that doesn't explain it, it's a binding vow. And if she can't make anything up, she'll say it's been passed down in her family.
Even worse, she didn't just come over by herself. Every so often, she'd bring someone else along, and every one of them was ridiculously strong!
Watching the jujutsu world gradually descend into chaos thanks to her own efforts, Uchiha Maki smiled with an innocent expression.
“We're just ordinary, unremarkable ninja~”
The people she'd wreaked havoc on: “Do you really expect us to believe that?!”
Then the Shibuya Incident broke out. Uchiha Maki tilted her head back and stared at the familiar yet strange thing before her, falling into a long silence for the first time.
Wait, how did that God Tree we lost back then end up growing here?!
