Naruto: The Manga System
I died as a tired art student.
I woke up as Kurama Akabane—frail heir of a dying genjutsu clan, in a world heading straight for war.
My body is weak, my clan is fading, and the “main characters” of history are still just kids in my classroom.
Then a translucent panel appeared in front of me.
A Manga System.
For every person who reads my manga, I gain points. With points, I can strengthen my body, amplify my mind, awaken the Kurama bloodline, and even exchange for real jutsu—from the Shadow Clone Technique to forbidden arts that shouldn’t exist yet.
And the story I chose to draw?
Naruto.
To my classmates—Tsunade, Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Sakumo—it’s just a strange, addictive comic about a loud blond troublemaker in some distant future.
To the Third Hokage spying through his crystal ball, it’s a glimpse of what Konoha might one day become.
To me, it’s a weapon.
If I can hook geniuses, clans, and even Kage on my manga, I can harvest the power to survive the coming wars—and maybe twist fate away from the bloodiest endings I remember.
I am Kurama Akabane.
In a village of shinobi, I will fight with ink, paper, and genjutsu.
And every page they read will make me stronger.
