Presumably, this was also the reason why these students were rushed through graduation to become cannon fodder.
[Ding.]
[Congratulations, Host, for realizing the true meaning of life. The Lying Flat and Slacking System has officially launched.]
[This system is very lazy, too lazy to introduce in detail. In short, as long as you lie flat, the Host will receive rewards.]
[The core principle is simple: if you can lie down, never sit; if you can sit, never stand.]
[For everything else, please explore on your own, Host.]
[This system is going to lie flat and slack off now. Bye-bye, Host, mwah!]
Uchiha Jin: "..."
Hearing the electronic synthetic voice in his mind, he was first stunned, then ecstatic.
Wow, he's saved!
He knew that his current strength was, at most, enough for self-preservation.
And this was only in the early stages; once Six Paths of Pain appeared later, the entire Shinobi World's power level would skyrocket instantly.
Forget about Six Paths Madara or Kaguya; he couldn't even beat Obito, Shisui, or even Konoha's Sannin.
Fortunately, the system had awakened.
However...
After he finished listening to the system's introduction, he was completely bewildered.
Lying flat and slacking off?
He wanted to!
But in this Shinobi World, if he dared to do that, he'd immediately be treated as a traitor.
Especially this system, it was even too lazy to introduce itself—how outrageous!
Explore on his own?
Damn it!
But, never mind.
He'd figure out future matters slowly. First, he needed to get benefits for himself; that was the most important thing.
"Uh, System, don't run off."
"Where's the Newbie Gift Pack ? Don't tell me there isn't one."
"Hurry up!"
Uchiha Jin was very anxious and quickly called out inwardly.
[Ding, Newbie Gift Pack is being issued.]
[Congratulations, Host, you have received: Rokushiki Training Method.]
This, this is good stuff!
Uchiha Jin was a little excited; after all, the Rokushiki from the Pirate World could definitely be considered a secret martial arts manual.
He closed his eyes.
He instantly grasped the training method for Rokushiki.
After thinking for a moment, he continued to speak.
"System, are there any missions?"
[Ding, no.]
[This system is very lazy and not interested in all that messy stuff.]
[As long as the Host is detected in a lying flat state, ninjutsu, chakra, and other abilities will automatically gain experience points, and rewards will be automatically issued when the Host's level increases.]
[The attribute panel has been issued. Please don't bother me, Host.]
[I'm out!]
[...]
Chapter Two: Kakashi's Sigh, The Strange Uchiha
Uchiha Jin's mouth twitched.
Encountering such a lazy system, he truly felt helpless.
Fortunately!
At least he got the Newbie Gift Pack, and he wouldn't need to do any missions in the future; he'd just get rewards by being as lazy as possible.
From this perspective, maybe it was a good thing?
But, damn it.
In this damn society of the Shinobi World, ninjas were the village's weapons.
If he dared to be lazy during wartime, even if Danzo Shimura didn't make a move, the village wouldn't spare him.
Even in peacetime, he still had to do missions!
Truly, what a headache!
Just as Uchiha Jin was worrying, Sarutobi Takeo on the podium finally finished his rousing speech.
"Ahem, one last thing."
"Everyone, rest well these next few days. Team assignments will begin in three days."
"Class dismissed!"
After Sarutobi Takeo finished speaking, he left the classroom directly.
Inside the classroom.
As the teacher left, the ninja students from civilian backgrounds began to clamor loudly.
"I've finally become a ninja and can fight to protect the village!"
"I will definitely become a great ninja, surpassing Kakashi and even Konoha's Sannin."
"I want to be Hokage!"
"..."
The civilian ninjas spoke one after another.
They all seemed energized, with light in their eyes, as if they saw themselves dominating and becoming pillars of the village.
In contrast, the ninjas from various clans, however, had furrowed brows and flickering eyes.
They had access to more information and were clearer about the village's true situation.
However...
They did not remind these civilian ninjas; instead, they left the classroom quietly in groups of two or three.
Uchiha Jin's eyes narrowed slightly.
His expression was very calm, and when he looked at this group of civilian ninjas, his eyes held a complex mix of pity.
He had no intention of reminding them, quietly left the classroom, and then headed straight home.
The reason was simple.
These people had been completely brainwashed. If he dared to speak nonsense, these guys wouldn't just be ungrateful; they might even report him directly to the Hokage.
Then he wouldn't get any benefit and would only stir up trouble.
Coupled with his Uchiha identity, what might await him then could very well be Konoha's Danzo Shimura... On the street, pedestrians were like weaving threads.
Uchiha Jin looked relaxed, glanced at the clear blue sky, yawned, and then arrived at Ichiraku Ramen.
"Teuchi-san, one super deluxe seafood ramen."
Uchiha Jin sat down and spoke very casually.
He was a regular at this shop, often coming here since he transmigrated.
For one thing, he couldn't cook.
He had developed the habit in his previous life of ordering takeout every day, and having long become a shut-in, he had long forgotten this skill.
And for another, although his parents had died tragically, he was not short on money.
Of course, more importantly, he also hoped to get familiar with Teuchi-san.
So that when great chaos broke out in Konoha in the future, he could hide here and weather the storm.
