In the small yard of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Yuichi, a young shinobi of Konoha, emerged in full battle uniform, bearing the Uchiha emblem. Despite his youth, at nineteen, Yuichi commanded respect from his fellow clansmen. The Uchiha, known for their pride, revered strength above all, and Yuichi had earned his place as one of the most powerful among them.
As he made his way to the training ground, Yuichi reflected on his life in this world. Having crossed into it nineteen years ago, he had relied on his exceptional talent to rise to the quasi-Kage level, making him one of the top combatants in Konoha.
Yet, he knew this wasn't enough. In a world filled with immense power, he needed more to survive the looming threats he knew were coming.
"Master Yuichi, half of the Uchiha clan supports you as the next patriarch," whispered Uchiha Itoi, one of his loyal followers, as Yuichi arrived at the training ground.
Ito, an Elite Jōnin, represented the high-end combat power of the Uchiha family. The current patriarch was expected to step down, with Uchiha Fugaku as the likely successor. However, many believed Yuichi, stronger and more capable, was the better choice.
Yuichi, however, was indifferent. "When did I say I wanted to be the patriarch?" he replied.
As a transmigrator, Yuichi was well aware of the Uchiha clan's precarious position in Konoha. The clan was isolated, viewed with suspicion by the village's leadership, and Yuichi knew that becoming the patriarch would be a thankless and dangerous role.
"Only by leading the Uchiha clan can you bring us to the top," Ito insisted. Yuichi merely glanced at him, knowing the grim fate that awaited the clan. He had no illusions about changing the future.
Suddenly, a mechanical voice echoed in Yuichi's mind, altering his thoughts.
[Ding, charging complete. Villain system loading... 10%... 30%... 100%. System activated!]
Yuichi's expression shifted.
'Is this the Cheat I've been waiting for?' He thought as he quickly excused himself and returned home using the Body Flicker Technique.
'System,' he called out in his mind.
[Host, I am here.]
A wave of excitement washed over Yuichi. Without a Cheat, he knew his future would be limited, but with this system, everything could change.
"System, what are your functions?"
[Host, this is the Villain System. By committing evil deeds, you can earn rewards. Depending on the severity of your actions, you can receive either evil value or tangible rewards. Evil value can be spent in the Evil Value Mall.]
A list of items appeared before Yuichi:
- [Mangekyō Sharingan: 300,000 Evil Value]
- [Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan: 1 Million Evil Value]
- [Perfect Sage Body: 1 Million Evil Value]
- [Nine Tomoe Rinnegan: 10 Million Evil Value]
Yuichi was unfazed by the system's moral implications. "So, I can become stronger by doing bad things?"
The system continued:
[There is no novice gift package, but there is a compensation package. Would you like to activate it?]
"Activate it," Yuichi said without hesitation.
[Compensation package opened. Congratulations, Host, you have received: Zanpakutō · Ryūjin Jakka and 100,000 Evil Value.]
A simple long sword appeared in Yuichi's hand. It looked unassuming, but Yuichi knew its true power—it was Ryūjin Jakka, one of the most powerful Zanpakutō from the world of Shinigami.
"System, can I actually use this?" Yuichi asked, knowing that Zanpakutō were typically wielded by spirit beings.
[The system has adapted Ryūjin Jakka for the Host. It now consumes chakra instead of spiritual energy.]
Yuichi nodded, understanding that he still needed to improve his skills to unleash Ryūjin Jakka's full potential.
"I will still need to learn proper swordsmanship," he mused, realizing his basic ninja skills wouldn't suffice.
He strapped the sword to his back and headed to the Konoha Guard headquarters, where he served as the deputy captain.
Although he had 100,000 Evil Value at his disposal, Yuichi decided to save it for a future purchase, like the Mangekyō Sharingan. Despite his talents, he had yet to awaken this powerful dojutsu, which required not just skill but intense emotional trauma—something Yuichi, who had led a relatively smooth life, had never experienced.
At the Konoha Guard, Yuichi was greeted by the stern face of Uchiha Fugaku. "You're late again, Yuichi. This is the seventeenth time this month," Fugaku scolded.
Fugaku, the captain of the guard, and Yuichi had a strained relationship. Although Yuichi was technically the stronger of the two, Fugaku held the captaincy due to his father's position as the Uchiha patriarch. The tension between them was palpable, driven primarily by the looming question of who would succeed as the clan's leader.
Yuichi, now armed with his system and Ryūjin Jakka, was unperturbed by Fugaku's rebuke. He knew that with the system's help, his future was no longer bound by the limits of this world or the constraints of the Uchiha clan.
The path ahead was clear—he would grow stronger, not as a hero, but as a force to be reckoned with.
