[BOOK 1] A Demon in a Ninja World

Chapter 1 - Game!

Hey there, the name's Kaito mikazuchi, and I'm the protagonist of this story!

Well, supposedly...

But this story started after I died though?

Huh, weird.

But other than that, everything's great.

I mean, floating around in the endless abyss with nothing but darkness, can't go that bad, right?

But it has been strange lately, some weird sound appeared on my mind... but that's alright! Cause I am a gamer! We don't die, we respawn!!

≪Confirmed. 『Gamer body』 has been created≫

Eh? What the hell was that?

...

I know you're in there!!! Answer me!! With my burning spirit, I DON'T FEAR DEATH!!!!

Maa~ Cause' I am already dead... it feels like magic that right now I'm so calm inside the abyss, please note the sarcasm.

≪Confirmed. Reconstructing the spirit...『Gamer's mind』 has been acquired.

Report. 『Gamer's mind』 and 『Gamer's body』 evolved into one skill category:

Skill, 『Gamer』 has been created and bestowed.

Additionally, 『magic perception』 has been obtained≫

What's with this thing? It's so stiff...

Are you some kind of robot???

≪...≫

Silence?

Did I hallucinate?

Can a ghost even hallucinate?

Now that I think about it, I could've used all my primogems first before dying.

I was saving up for hu tao and tartaglia...

Actually, never mind...

I wish Shiori dumped my Hardisk to the bathtubs properly, she didn't open it first right!?

I'll be damned...

≪Confirmed.

Attempting full format of all information.

Error, Impossible. due to lack of definition.

Attempting alternate interpretation. Establishing electricity resistance.

Success.

Additionally, 『paralysis resistance』 and a new feature for 『Gamer』 has been acquired≫

My hallucination getting worse, it seems.

Man, I should've re-watched Naruto before I decided to kick the bucket...

≪Confirmed. Alternating reincarnation location proses to the world: Narutoverse≫

Eh?

Reincarnation?

What is this thing saying...?

Did I survive, but the doctor put too much morphine on me??

Man, that would suck...

≪Confirmed. Generating body that's immune to poison, 『 Poison ressistance』has been acquired≫

...I'll ignore that...

shiori-chan~ I want to meet you again...

I remembered when I cosplayed as Assassination Classroom's karma with her as another anime girl character when we're visiting Akihabara...

Which I failed miserably...

My face doesn't match Karma Akabane that much, Shiori-chan laughed at my face... feels bad bro...

≪Confirmed. Creating a body with resemblance of the individual: Karma Akabane≫

Can you stop talking?

I'm reminiscing the moment of my life here...

≪Confirmed.

Generating a skill involving memories of the soul...

『 Perfect memory EX』 『Photographic Memory』

has been created≫

I'LL CHAIN YOU UP UNTIL EVEN THE UZUMAKIS PROUD, YOU BASTARD! JUST SHUT UP ALREADY!

≪Confirmed.

Creating a body that matches the DNA and characteristics of an Uzumaki's≫

I was expecting, "confirmed. I'll shut up now" but it seems like this thing is an idiot, I'm just so done...

≪Confirmed. Individual: Mikadzuchi Kaito, will be known as "Uzumaki Karma". The soul will be delivered and dwell in a new body. ≫

Eh?

Oi! What-

...

「unfamiliar ceiling.... Rather, there's no ceiling at all...」

Failing to make a reference, I get up.

After scanning my surroundings, I make my way to a nearby lake.



.
.
.

I AM REINCARNATED!???

.
.
.

That thing was not joking when it said it's gonna reincarnate me as Karma Akabane or is it Karma Uzumaki now?

Should I be happy though???

Getting a second chance and all?

No.

I got reincarnated to a world where killing is a norm and so is a child soldier.

That thing did say something about the system, and gamer, and shit...

Oh, dear...

「Status...」I called.

DING*

A blue screen appeared right in front of my eyes.

The screen has 3 rectangular options and an X button at the left top just like every window panel has appeared.

...IS THIS A MANHWA!??

.
.
.

First is "status", the second is "market", and last is "inventory", and now that I saw this, playing this second life as a game wouldn't be so bad...

Anyway, I should probably grow stronger to survive, and judging from my appearance, I am a kid again, OH JOY.

Did "it" send me at the start of the story??

That voice sounded familiar for some reason...

Ah...that's right.

It also appears on an anime once.

Tensura's Voice of the world...

Sigh, let's think about that later.

For now, to find shelter and survive, I realized now that I'm wearing a long white sleeve shirt complete with white short pants.

My mind is screaming...

Not that I'm complaining though...

Let's see, oh? I'm ten huh... there's no HP or MP here...this is bad, HP points are important but there's no MP too???

Well, If I have MP, then it would probably be overkill for this world.

I've read "The gamer", and the MC, Jihan gets his MP increased by rising his INT, should I do the same???

But I have a large chakra reserve already since I am an Uzumaki.

Otto! I remember that Jihan has 『Observation』 by freaking himself out while watching the man in black what's-his-name-again, let's try that, shall we?

Turning my head, I focused my thoughts on a nearby tree "observing" it.

...

DING* the screen appeared

≪Due to the continuous action, a new skill 『observation』 is created.≫

≪Tree≫

Ah yes, this is also familiar.

Nai wa...

Maa~ at least it worked.

Aren't I a genius?

DING*

≪WIS has increased by 1≫

...

...I'll take that you are complimenting me system-chan... Probably.

For now, let's see the market, the screen change again and it shows me 3 option.

Item, skills, gacha.

Holy Log, GACHA IS BACK!!!

Immediately, I move my hand to tap on the screen as the screen once more changes again.

The screen shows a box with a question mark in the middle and a Roll 1x button below it with "first time free" beside it, There's no 10x roll???, wait...

IS THAT PRIMOGEMS?????

The top corner of my screen has a pink and blue star shape-thing and the number 1600 next to it.

I'm not hallucinating alright, that's a primogems, the primogems I grind so hard just to get hu tao in my previous life, which I end up getting mona btw...

My gacha addiction did not change at all even in another world, I am blaming God for this...

Damn, that's a good Light novel Title...

...

Guess I'll just do gacha then...

I clicked the 1x roll button...

DING*

≪<Ajax's set > x1 get≫

...a cleaning product??

I pondered awhile before dismissing the screen...

A what now?

Tapping the item upon entering the inventory tab...

DING*

≪Would you like to open <Ajax's set>???≫

Yes!

Right after I said that in my mind, a light appeared in front of me.

Oh never mind, thank god it's not a cleaning product...

It glows for about 5 seconds until its shapes shifted into a; bow, a blood-red mask, a waist belt with stone or some jewelry orb that glows blue attached, and a red scarf with a jewelry orb glowing purple pinned to it.

After a while, the purple orb faded and became transparent, the blue one did not.

DING*

≪Congratulations! you get:≫

- <Amos bow> x1 S
- <Hydro vision> x1 S
- <Electro delusion> x1 S
- <Abyss's mask> x1 B

Those letters... I would never get them in my previous life, my luck was not this great in my past life... is this because I'm an Uzumaki???

There's a possibility...

Naruto has ungodly luck in gambling, but let's put that aside later.

I equipped all the items I just acquired.

I wear my <electro delusion> scarf and my <hydro vision> as a belt, I managed to make my bow appear and disappear...

It just appeared when I want and disappeared when I throw it into the air.

The red mask is equipped beside my face like a hairpin, and it surprisingly sticks to my head just like that... don't ask me how.

DING* skill added

-『Foul Legacy: Raging Tide』

-『Foul legacy: Devouring Deep』

-『Abyssal Gospel』

So, now I guess I'll just get to my first objective.

Food and shelter...now, guess I'll just go and hunt??

I'm hungry...

I run around the forest for a while, trying to find foo-

Hn???

I feel like something is appro... what is this feeling?

Like someone's stalking me.. watching me?

Maa~Guess I'll go and say my usual bullshit,

"Hey there! you like stalking??? Me too!!"

The second I said that, a man with grey...

I mean, "silver" defying gravity hair and a black mask appeared from the bushes I was facing while holding a kunai.

This man is Kakashi Hatake.

「state your name and business in Konoha. 」 he shouted.

「...」

「...」

We had a staring contest for a while until I spoke.

「Hi?」

I am very sociable and talkative as you can see...(please note the sarcasm).

WHAT DO YOU EXPECT??? I'M A NEET!

I LEAVE ALL THAT WORK TO MY GIRLFRIEND...

yeah, you're probably asking why a useless otaku like me can have a girlfriend....the answer is...

BECAUSE I HAVE ALRIGHT...

I still make money online so I'm not completely useless...

Ugh... Shiori-chan...


Let's put aside flashbacks for later.

For now...

.
.
.

The staring contest continues...

「state your name and business in Konoha....」

He said it again, still holding a kunai.

「...」

Before I knew it, a green blur dashed, and a bowl-headed guy appeared beside the masked Hatake, this man is Maito Gai.

「MY YOUTHFULL RIVAL! THAT IS NOT HOW YOU SPEAK TO A YOUTHFUL CHILD!」

He's loud...

I've seen how weird he is in the anime but meeting him in person is...phenomenal...

Taking a step back by surprise and almost falling, I regained my balance by leaning on the tree behind me...

「WHAT IS YOUR NAME YOUTHFUL CHILD???」 Gai asked.

「Karma...Uzumaki」

I replied, still surprised (more disgusted) by the scenery of the grinning bowl head.

Kakashi narrowed his eyes upon hearing my name...

「what is your business in Konoha?」 Kakashi asked suddenly.

「...I'm lost」 I replied

「you are lost...?」

「...yEs」

Gai is still grinning, when Kakashi sighed.

「come with us kid」

I just followed as we head to Konoha...

Surprisingly, they didn't ask anything along the way.

.
.
.


Right now, I am facing the 3rd Hokage with a stoic face while we are waiting for inoichi Yamanaka, inside the Hokage's office and a mountain stack of paperwork beside him on the table.

We waited for about 30 minutes of silence with hiruzen working on his paperwork and me playing with my scarf until a sound knocked behind the door.

「come in...」 hiruzen said.

A Kakashi that's sticking his nose into his beloved icha icha paradise book, and a man with long ash-blond hair reaching into his lower back tied into a ponytail entered the room, this man is inoichi yamanaka.

「pardon my intrusion, Hokage-sama. This is my report.」 Inoichi said.

「ah...inoichi, thank you for your reports, now let's start, shall we?」

Hiruzen replied.

「Hai,」

Inoichi said before turning to me.

「Kid, we need to check if you're a threat or not. 」

Such bluntness, is this some form of ninjutsu?

「So, I'll be using a Jutsu to look inside your mind, so just lay down and relax-」

「I refuse」

I objected before he finish.

The atmosphere tensed.

「...can you tell us why, young man???」 hiruzen asked.

「I like my privacy」

I replied with a poker face, you think I'll let you do that! I'll fight you even if I would die again in this second life!

MY CODES SHALL NEVER BE KNOWN TO ANYONE EXCEPT ME!

Inoichi approaches.

「then I guess we will need to do this the old way...」

Well shit.

....

「Name?」

Inoichi suddenly asked.

Ehh??

He's only questioning me???

Alright, stay calm...

Right now, I am karma...

I need to act like him...

How does he act again??!!

OKAY! Just- uhh- emotionless! Yes! That would do!

「Karma Uzumaki」 I replied.

「gender?」 he asked

「male」 obviously...

「age?」

「Ten」

「why are you in Konoha?」

「I was lost in the forest, 2 shinobi found me」

「do you have any ill intention towards Konoha?」

「no.」

Inoichi stopped asking and say,

「I can sense no lies on that, hokage-sama」

「....」

「Karma-kun, would you like to be a ninja in this village???」

Hiruzen asked making me jolt a little.

Geez... Talk about fanfics...

「sure, why not」

I replied directly, rolling an eye.

To this, hiruzen hummed and gestured his hand towards Kakashi.

「now, this is Kakashi Hatake... 」

Hiruzen said gesturing his hand towards him.

「...and you will stay at his place until I give you a new apartment.」

.
.
.

「you're an Uzumaki...」 the masked Hatake said.

「and you're a Hatake...」 I replied flatly.

Let me explain to you the situation...

It's 5 pm and we were eating and chatting like the most sociable and outgoing person we are at ichiraku's as you can see (note the sarcasm).

Anyway, after eating we go "home" and we'll call this a day but...

「do you know anyone else who is an Uzumaki?」 Kakashi asked.

「no」 I replied flatly.

And the conversation ends there. Don't ask me, I didn't know what he's thinking, he's probably trying to ask I have parents or not, and thought it was a sensitive subject.

Well, right now I'm alone in the guest room, and I have been looking at my stats.

Since I have so much chakra as an Uzumaki I should probably use my points to increase Chakra control...

Let's put 50 on CKRC and 50 on INT.

DING*

≪due to 『INT』 passing 10 『MP STAT』 and 『HP STAT』 has been created≫

DING*

≪due to 『INT』 passing 50 『MP』 has increased by 5≫

DING*

≪due to『INT』passing 50 a skill 『mana affinity』 has been created≫

Humu. I see...

It's not because I don't have hp or mp stat, but I just need to unlock it.

Int doesn't have anything to do with chakra!

This is interesting...

Maybe I should save points for wis later, because, from the manhwa, Jihan increases his mana regeneration by wisdom.

I can plagiarize him later on!

DING*

≪『WIS』 has increased by 1≫

...

Well, let's see my stats for the last time before going to bed...
