"Where the hell did this take me?"
Inside a room in the Uchiha Clan Grounds, a young man who appeared to be no older than twenty was sitting on the bed, looking utterly dejected.
The young man, now named Uchiha Hirito, was a Transmigrator.
He woke up and found himself in the Ninja World.
After merging with the original body's memories, Uchiha Hirito's mental state completely collapsed.
Good news: He was currently employed in the Police Force within the clan. Although his position wasn't high, it was a form of security.
Bad news: The time he transmigrated to was very delicate—exactly thirty days before the Night of the Clan Annihilation.
Thirty days later, that filial son, Itachi, with his noble Will of Fire, would kill all Uchiha clan members, including him.
"This is a disastrous start!"
Uchiha Hirito stared blankly at the strikingly handsome face in the mirror, muttering.
At present, the relationship between the clan and the Village had already become riddled with holes.
After the Nine-Tailed's Night, they were extremely wary of the Uchiha. The Anbu had been monitoring the Uchiha, which was something everyone knew.
Any slight disturbance within the clan would be reported to the Konoha higher-ups.
Escaping was impossible.
As for staying?
Wasn't that just waiting for Itachi to stab him in the heart?
How could a minor character who had only awakened a one-tomoe Sharingan possibly defeat Uchiha Itachi, who had activated his Mangekyo?
Not to mention, there were also the black-hearted Obito and the venomous Danzo lurking in the shadows, waiting at every moment to finish them off and pluck out their eyes.
There was simply nowhere to hide, nowhere to escape!
Uchiha Hirito sighed deeply, rubbed his head, and forced himself to calm down, trying to find a glimmer of hope.
"No, no, I absolutely cannot give up too early. As long as I can awaken my Mangekyo, maybe then..."
As he spoke, Uchiha Hirito himself couldn't maintain his composure.
"Damn it!"
"Thirty days! Where the hell am I going to awaken my Mangekyo in thirty days?!"
"I'm tired, just let it all be destroyed. There's nothing left to play for!"
"Ding—"
"Your Wonderful Life Simulator is loading..."
"Loading progress 77%..."
"Loading progress 86%..."
Just as Uchiha Hirito felt despair, a mechanical voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
System?!
Holy crap, a cheat has arrived!
Uchiha Hirito immediately sprang up from the bed with a carp-like flip, his eyes instantly lighting up.
As an experienced web novel reader, he had absolute trust in systems.
With it, he was saved!
Itachi? Obito? Danzo?
All of you, die for me!
Uchiha Hirito's eyes were burning with fervor, staring intently at the illusory progress bar in front of him.
Once it loaded to one hundred percent, a new prompt immediately popped up.
"Ding!"
"Congratulations to the host for successfully binding the Wonderful Life Simulator. This system will fully assist the host in experiencing a wonderful life."
"After the simulation begins, the host will experience a new life on other timelines."
"The rewards issued will be determined based on the difficulty of the mission chosen by the host and the progress of its completion."
"Current number of simulations available: 1"
"Other timelines?"
Uchiha Hirito paused slightly, "Does this refer to other timelines in Naruto?"
The simulator did not answer. Clearly, it meant for him to figure it out himself!
However, Uchiha Hirito didn't care much about this. After all, it was just a simulation; it couldn't do anything to him.
As for what missions he needed to complete, it didn't matter as long as the rewards he obtained could help him survive!
"Wonderful Life Simulator activating..."
"Please select the final mission objective for this life simulation:"
"1. Create a world with Rin. Difficulty: A"
"2. Destroy the Ninja World. Difficulty: B"
"3. Help Kushina avoid a death outcome. Difficulty: S"
Upon seeing the three options presented on the panel, Uchiha Hirito was completely stunned.
"No, why do I feel like every mission is very difficult?"
To create a world with Rin... Does Edo Tensei count?
As for destroying the Ninja World, that was even more outrageous; wasn't that asking him to go against everyone?
The difficulty of these two missions should clearly be harder than the third one!
But why did the system say the third one was the hardest?
Was it because of the timeline issue?
If he were placed at the time when Kaguya was fighting Naruto and Sasuke, and he just worked hard on the side, assisting the naive Kaguya, he might actually be able to destroy the Ninja World.
Thinking about it that way, it really didn't seem that difficult... After some contemplation, Uchiha Hirito ultimately decided to choose the third mission.
After all, it was marked as the most difficult, which meant the rewards would also be the most generous.
And to be honest, he felt this one was actually the simplest.
The system was probably confused!
"You have selected the final mission objective for this simulation: Help Kushina avoid a death outcome."
"Worldline deduction in progress... Deduction successful!"
"Talent entries generating... Generation complete!"
"The host can choose three talent entries from the following as initial talents:"
"Note: The entry levels are White, Green, Blue, Purple, Gold, Red, in order. And talent entries do not represent strength, but potential."
"Ninja Aptitude (White)"
"Chakra Control (Green)"
"Chunin Aptitude (Green)"
"Jonin Aptitude (Blue)"
"Kage-level Aptitude (Gold)"
"Yin Release Power (Blue)"
"Medical Genius (Purple)"
"Jinchuriki Aptitude (Blue)"
..."Hiss, it seems quite powerful."
Looking at the "Kage-level Aptitude" among the refreshed talent entries, Uchiha Hirito's eyes widened.
Although this did not represent strength, but potential.
But as long as Uchiha Hirito didn't die prematurely in the simulation, he might eventually become an existence comparable to Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.
Without much hesitation, Uchiha Hirito immediately picked this sole golden entry.
After all, Obito's strength was also quite formidable. If he wasn't strong enough himself, he might not be able to save Kushina.
For the second one, Uchiha Hirito chose "Medical Genius."
This was just in case.
If Uchiha Hirito didn't arrive at the scene in time, or failed to prevent the disaster from happening, he could still rely on his superb medical skills to pull Kushina back from the brink of death.
The last one he chose was "Yin Release Power."
This was chosen in conjunction with the previous "Medical Genius" entry.
He was afraid that if he only had the theoretical maximum of "Medical Genius" but didn't possess the Yin Release Power necessary to use Medical Ninjutsu, wouldn't that be a disaster?
What would he do at the disaster scene?
Just stare blankly?
So this "Yin Release Power" was very necessary!
"Initial talent entries selected: Kage-level Aptitude (Gold), Medical Genius (Blue), Yin Release Power (Blue)"
"Detecting that the host is prepared for life, the gears of fate begin to turn."
"Simulation begins!"
"Wait, what preparations have I made?"
Only managing to utter that sentence, in the next instant, Uchiha Hirito's entire figure vanished from the room...
End of the Chapter.
