In the Naruto World, yet without Chakra?
Haruki dared not open his eyes, hoping it was just his imagination.
But the System's incessant chatter kept echoing in his mind.
Haruki could no longer deceive himself.
He didn't even dare to open his eyes and look at Yahiko and the others.
[But seriously, dear, you were really working so hard just now~]
[I was too embarrassed to remind such a diligent dear~]
[Dear, your mindset is still very good~]
[Dear, please don't compare yourself to others~ Yahiko and the others are natives of the Naruto World, you can't compare yourself to them~]
"Shut up."
Two words, uttered from Haruki's Kiba, were swallowed down, only to echo in his mind the next second.
[...]
[Dear, don't bottle things up and cause yourself problems~]
"Shut up."
Haruki's heart was about to explode.
[Dear, your heart rate is so fast~]
[Dear, you seem to have been electrocuted~]
"..."
Haruki could never compete with the inherently abstract System.
Compared to the System, Haruki, a mere internet troll, was as naive as a fresh recruit.
Haruki questioned the System: "How am I supposed to survive in this dangerous world without Chakra? Tell me!"
Haruki broke down.
He had Transmigrated to the Naruto World, already halfway through his strategy guide, only for the System to tell him he had no Chakra?
What was the difference between this and finding a video, getting the tissues ready, making all the preparations, only to pull down your pants and realize you don't have a little bird at all?
It was even more cruel than his example.
[Dear, don't be so anxious~]
"..."
Who wouldn't be anxious in this situation?
He was already considered good-tempered!
The fact that he didn't immediately turn on the System meant he was already the most good-tempered man in the world!
[Dear, don't be senselessly enraged~]
"..."
Senselessly enraged?
Haruki withered.
His heart was completely dead.
[Dear, although you don't have Chakra, you have Curse Power~]
[And your Curse Power talent is very high~]
[Your Curse Power is also very vast~]
[Just like when I told you that you didn't have Chakra, your Curse Power experienced a small burst~]
"..."
Haruki was silent for a second.
"So what? Do you want an award?"
[What award?]
"The 'Anger Your Host to Death' award."
Haruki's heart was like still water.
[...]
[Dear, you need to look on the bright side~ Although the source of attack power is different, the effect of the attack is the same~]
Haruki was reluctantly comforted.
He really had no choice but to be comforted.
Otherwise, was he really going to die?
"..."
Haruki felt that his destiny was truly fraught with difficulties.
Was this the suffering that a protagonist was destined to bear?
"How much Curse Power do I have?"
Alright.
Haruki took a deep breath, adjusting his mindset.
[Dear, don't rely too much on the System~]
"..."
I rely on your brother!
Haruki believed that as a host, he was already working hard enough.
A small family only achieves results when two people work together.
If the System slacks off, what good is it for him, a host, to put in all his effort?
Haruki regarded the System as a disabled System.
After all, it couldn't even answer such a simple question.
"Why don't I just die?"
Is the System that useless?
Haruki could foresee what kind of "surprises" the System would occasionally bring him in the future.
[Dear, don't die~]
[The host's Curse Power is composed of two parts: personal Curse Power (maximum 10,000,000) + Cursed Spirit-carried Curse Power (no maximum limit)]
Haruki understood. Yuta Okkotsu's body had a maximum Curse Power total of only ten million, but every time he activated a Cursed Spirit, the Cursed Spirit's own Curse Power would merge into his body...
Which meant his Curse Power was unlimited.
Suddenly.
Something flashed through Haruki's mind.
He was suddenly stunned.
Immediately after, he promptly had the System bring up his personal information.
[Technique Mimicry (Current progress 36.002%): Can mimic Ninjutsu below A-rank.]
[Mimicable Techniques: Nanami Kento — Warawara (Activated); Inumaki Toge — Cursed Speech (Not Activated); Gojo Satoru — Six Eyes (Not Activated); Gojo Satoru — Limitless Curse Power (Not Activated); Gojo Satoru — Hollow Purple (Not Activated); Gojo Satoru — Domain Expansion (Not Activated); Geto Suguru — Cursed Spirit Manipulation (Not Activated); Fushiguro Toji — Heavenly Restriction (Not Activated)... Click to expand]
Haruki immediately analyzed the key information in his mind.
A-rank or lower Ninjutsu mimicry?
That meant he could still use Ninjutsu!
It's just that his Ninjutsu wasn't activated with Chakra, but with Curse Power!
And the attack effect was the same!
Haruki breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Haruki was now completely relieved.
Not only that, he had already activated Nanami Kento's technique.
Why would Nanami Kento's technique be activated?
Haruki still didn't understand.
He could only attribute it to Rika's upgrade and Ryomen Sukuna's activation.
To activate more mimicry techniques, he needed to increase Rika and Ryomen Sukuna's strength and activate other Cursed Spirits.
Having received a somewhat satisfactory result, Haruki finally dared to open his eyes.
Before he could clearly see the people in front of him, he first heard Yahiko and the others cheering.
"Rin, you succeeded!"
"That's great!"
"I knew you could do it, Rin!"
Before Haruki could say a word, Yahiko and Konan were already excitedly celebrating for Haruki.
Jiraiya and Nagato smiled.
Haruki: "..."
He had to interrupt them.
The next second, the jubilant Yahiko and others heard Haruki's voice.
"I... don't seem to have Chakra."
Jiraiya: "..."
Nagato: "..."
Yahiko: "..."
Konan: "..."
"Are... are you kidding?"
Yahiko was incredulous.
"How can you not have Chakra?"
Yahiko looked at Jiraiya Sensei as if seeking confirmation.
Jiraiya looked at Haruki in confusion, stroking his chin: "Hmm... it's true that some people are born without Chakra."
Legend has it that the Six Paths Sage imparted Chakra to people, and people gradually spread Chakra, thus giving birth to the Shinobi Sect.
Outside the Shinobi Sect, there were still a large number of people in the world who had not been exposed to Chakra, and their descendants also had no Chakra.
"Then what should we do?"
Yahiko looked at Jiraiya with concern.
Jiraiya stared intently at Haruki.
To his surprise, he didn't see any disappointment or nervousness on the child's face.
"Rin, you cannot learn Ninjutsu."
Haruki's heart was like still water when Jiraiya told him this result.
Only he knew whether he could learn Ninjutsu.
But Haruki didn't say anything; he wanted Jiraiya to discover it himself and give Jiraiya a'surprise'.
Haruki's heart revealed an evil smile.
Jiraiya looked at Haruki and comforted him: "But it's not necessarily true that you can only protect yourself by learning Ninjutsu!"
"Next, I will teach you Taijutsu!"
Taijutsu?
When Jiraiya mentioned Taijutsu, Haruki thought of Fushiguro Toji.
He really wanted Heavenly Restriction!
To figure out the rules for activating mimicry techniques, he still had to earn emotion points for experiments!
