[BOOK 1] A Demon in a Ninja World

Chapter 4 - The Demon is a Gacha addict

Karma uzumaki's POV

After another talk with Hokage-sama, he gave me an apartment an I moved it immediately.

I don't have that much stuff so I moved in fast, and it's Sunday so no school, perfect time to move.

He also gave me monthly pocket money... well enough of that.

NOW IT IS TIME FOR GACHA!!!

I get inside my plain room and started playing around with system-chan.

I tapped on gacha option.

I have 1600 primos so I can roll up to 10 times, but there's no 10x roll button...

well that doesn't matter.

I am an Uzumaki, I have ungodly luck. Not to mention, some items have categories like "a set" which is one item that contains multiples.

I tapped on the 1x button, for now I'll roll 2 times only.

I don't know if earning primos is as hard as in genshin, and it never hurts to save up.

DING*
《<Character cosmetic set>  S x1 get》

DING*
《<Amos bow > S x1 get》

。。。

Hnnn... .

I wonder if I could refine my amos bow.

I opened my equipment tab, and I pressed the bow that has small "equipped" icon bellow Refine
Yes... now, my amos bow is refinement level 2

Nice.

It's time to open the cosmetic stuff thing

DING*
《would you like to open <Character cosmetic set x1>?? 》

Yes

DING*
《CONGRATULATIONS, YOU GET: 》

Well that's great...

But...

Naah, I liked my red hair so I ain't going to use a hair dye, this <ditto's mask> makes me curious though...

<ditto's mask> (A) x1 (consumable)
Efect:

『Transform』 active 150 CP/minute

Allows the user to transform as the opponent, copy opponent's skills, and personality for a period of time.

Now this is cool...

What about this race changing thing...

<race changer> (S) x1 (consumable)
Effect:

『Race change』 active

Allows the user to change their race permanently to any kind of species from humans to animals, even plants and magical creatures.

Ohohoho, sounds like a... "Racist" Item eh?

Hehe, get it?

Let's try to equip it...

DING*
《『Race change』HAS BEEN ACTIVATED, 『Race change』 WILL NOT CHANGE GENES AND DNA OF THE USER, SO PLEASE CHOOSE YOUR DESIRED RACE WISELY》

Human
Angel
Demon
Tailed beast
Undead
Elf
Fairy
...
...
...

There's so many choices but one that caught my eye is the devil race... I read the description and it goes like this:

《Demons are Spiritual Lifeforms similar to Spirits or Angels. They do not have a Body normally, as they exist in the Spiritual World where they mostly wander aimlessly around. By default, most of the Demons do not have names or any sort sense of self. There are a few exceptions which include those that have developed an ego after being summoned several times and having contact with the Material World. 》

Uwa... this Item is consumables...

I can't let it go to waste...

Well I did said that I'll became a demon lord...

So, why not chose that!

I tapped at demon option.

DING*

《would you like to change your current race, 『HUMAN』 to 『DEMON』??? 》

Yes!

My body feels hot, I was enveloped in darkness, more like a black cocoon.

I use 『create I.D』 and set the I.D to empty before losing consciousness....

。
。
。

I woke up.

My body feels light, and there's a pair of black wings sticking out from my back... how do I retract this...?

I spend a little more time trying to hide my wings before checking my stats

。
。
。
。

I used 『Escape I.D』 to escape the zombie apocalypse world, wha- IT'S MORNING!

I'M GONNA BE LATE!

。
。
。

「hey」

I said looking to naruto as we both opened our doors at the same time.

We stared at each other for a while until he shouts.

「Hey! I am Uzumaki Naruto! I'm going to be a hokage someday-dattebayo!」

'he' exclaimed.

I paused a little before replying cheerfully.

「Yo! My name is Uzumaki Karma! Hope we got along well-dattebane!」

Prepares for emotional moments!

「e-eh...u-uzumaki?? That means...you- you're my-」

「I'm your family, right?」 I asked.

I didn't got my answer, I got hugged by a crying naruto at the front door...

Well, I can't help but awkwardly pat 'his' back.

I'm not so good with emotional stuff...

。
。
。

_Time skip 2 Years later_

。
。
。

「NARUTO!! STOP RIGHT THERE!!」

Some anbu and a very familiar chunin sensei is chasing the blonde kid who just vandalized the hokage monument.

Yup you guess it right, it's the first episode of naruto!

And right now, I use instant dungeons constantly to move from spot to spot to watch the scene.

It was terrific.

I get inside the classroom via window, Dispersed my clone that I created on my seat and sit down.

Thankfully no one did try to socialize with me.

So no one touch "me" when I am just sleeping on the spot.

。
。
。

「you failed the graduation test, and the one before that... this is no time to goofing off, you fool!」

「Hmph!」 Naruto turn his head to right while pouting.

A tick mark appeared on iruka's forehead.

「Today we will have a re-test on transformation jutsu! Even those who already passed will take it!」

「Ehhhhhhhh!!! 」 the whole class whined after iruka's remark.

。
。
。
。

I can see naruto is cleaning the hokage monument with iruka sitting on above a monuments' head.

「I won't let you go home unless you clean that all up」

Iruka said.

「I don't care! There's nobody home anyway」

Naruto said.

「aren't you forgetting someone? 」

I said as I appeard behind iruka.

In response to my sudden interruption...

「U-uwa! 」(Iruka)

「Karma!」 naruto exclaimed.

「yo! You did good this time, but I just don't get how you escape all the anbus but not iruka sensei.」

I said as I land next to him.

「Let's finish this quickly, I'll help you out -dattebane」

I said as I take the duster on his water bucket.

「Thanks karma! 」

Naruto exclaimed.

。
。
。
。

「Naruto... 」

Iruka said after regaining is composure.

「What is it this time?」

Naruto said looking up.

「If you clean up all that mess, I'll treat you both ramen tonight.」

Naruto's eyes and mine lighted up.

「YOSHI! I will finish it in no time!!!! 」

Naruto shouted while I grin evilly, maa~...we'll suck out iruka's wallet tonight.

。
。
。

「Naruto... why did you vandalized those faces?? Don't you know who the hokage leaders are??」

Iruka asked.

「of course I do! 」

Naruto said pausing to eat his ramen.

「I know they earned the title hokage because they were the best ninja in their time right?? Especially, the fourth hokage was a hero who save the village from nine-tailed fox」

Naruto replied.

「Then why did you do that? 」

Iruka asked again.

「Because i'll became a hokage myself, and i'll became the greatest hokage of all time! 」

Ah... beautiful scene... what am I doing, you asked?

I'm watching, I watch while slurping my ramen broth, it was beautiful...

This scene... it's like I'm watching the anime in 4D, even though everything is animated...

Hn? How's life? It's been great! In this 2 years I manage to learn many things, I leveled up pretty quickly.

My chakra control also went up to the sky! It went up too much if I may add...

I also managed to collect souls for my demon seed by hunting ghost from dungeons.

But that was useless, because apparently you can buy souls from the market.

More like pseudo souls but hey, it works.

They even use ryos as currency, so I used up all my money earned from dungeons for pseudo souls.

(soul collected: 6.901/10.000)

My goal is to reach demon lord title in 3 years!

「can I borrow that leaf headband for a while???? 」

Naruto asked.

It seems I have been too absorbed in explaining my stats to you readers. Well, I'll stop now.

「ah this?? No no. This is worn only by those who have graduated from ninja academy. Tomorrow you will. 」

「Stingy!」

「hahah! So that's why you took of your googles.. 」

Iruka said.

「humph! One more bowl please! 」

「One more bowl please! 」

naruto shouts in sync with me

「Oi!??!」 Iruka shouted

*DING

《QUEST: "GRADUATE ACADEMY" Would you want to accept? 》

Rewards: basic fuinjutsu scrolls, 30 Primogems

Yes.

_time skip_

「We are now about to begin the graduation test.. 」

Iruka said before pausing.

「When your name is called, proceed to the next classroom. The test is on clone jutsu.」

Iruka finished.

Naruto are derived to despair.

DING*

《QUEST: "GRADUATE ACADEMY" 『COMPLETED』》

<basic fuinjutsu scrolls set> x1 get
<primogems> x20 get

Everything went smoothly.

Well, except for naruto.

I graduated, and use my hitai-ate as an armband.

After the the test I saw a depressed naruto on a swing.

I approached him ,bringing out bentos I made this morning and placing it on top of his head.

「Ka-karma!」

Naruto exclaimed turning his attention to me.

「There's still next time dattebane. Are you going to give up now?? 」

I said.

Yes, Living next to him for 2 years makes me gain a this tic-mark.

I can't help it now.

「wh- who says i'll give up dattebayo!」

I grinned,

「then eat this bento and stop mopping already, -ttebane 」

Naruto smiled as he took the bento from my hands, I told him I'm going to see the hokage so I can't eat with him and I'll join him later.

Before leaving I saw mizuki staring at naruto.

I cursed inwardly before proceeding my way to the hokage tower.

I flared my chakra thrice before barging in through the window, I always did this to tell the anbu guards I'm coming.

「Hokage-sama, I seek a private audience.」

I said after barging in.

Hokage-sama turns his head to me while dismissing the anbu guards.

「very well, congrats on being a genin karma-kun. Now, is this about naruto? 」

「hokage-sama, clone jutsu is a jutsu that used up very little chakra, for someone like naruto who massive chakra reserve, don't you think it's a little bit unfair?」

Hokage-sama's pupil narrowed a bit, there's a minute of silence before hokage-sama answered

「I see, this topic has never crossed my mind. Since he was the last uzumaki... I will ask a re-evaluation on naruto's test and..」

I cut in before hokage sama finished,

「there is no need」

「What do you mean, karma-kun? 」

「I saw mizuki-sensei this afternoon staring at depressed naruto, and I don't think he is NOT up to no good with that disgusting glare of his」

I said arrogantly.

Hokage-sama's pupil narrowed wider than before.

「What do you think he will do? 」 hokage-sama asked.

「Mizuki will manipulate naruto to steal a scroll from here, naruto will learn the jutsu he needs to graduate, Iruka will be there too.」

I summarized.

「Maa~ Don't worry about it, naruto will learn clone jutsu and beat mizuki up before that. And that's when iruka graduate naruto」

I finished.

「how do you predict all of this?? And I don't think a boy who is not even a genin can defeat a chuunin with mere clone jut-」

I cut in again.

「oh, I'm not talking about normal clone jutsu, hokage-sama.」

「...Then, What??」 hokage-sama asked.

「shadow clones... 」

I paused as hokage-sama's pupil narrowed wider.

「I believe shadow clones are perfect jutsu for naruto, if my prediction is correct he could have created hundreds clones already if you gave it to him before」

Hiruzen Sarutobi's POV

「Hokage-sama, I seek private audience」

I turn my head to the voice while dismissing the anbu guards.

「very well, congrats on being a genin karma-kun. Now, is this about naruto? 」

I asked.

「hokage-sama, clone jutsu is a jutsu that used up very little chakra for someone like naruto who has so much chakra, don't you think it's a little bit unfair?」

Hm? It's true... that's a bit unfair, but what makes me shocked right now is that this boy knows about chakra controls.

Well, it probably related from his live before staying here.

I'm not even going to be surprised if he already knows tree walking or water walking,

「I see, this topic has never crossed my mind. Since he was the last uzumaki... I will ask a reevaluation on naruto's test and..」

「there is no need」

He cut in, what is he trying to do?

「What do you mean, karma-kun? 」

「I saw mizuki-sensei this afternoon staring at depressed naruto, and I don't think he is NOT up to no good with that disgusting glare of his」

He said arrogantly.

I narrowed my eyes, his voice is the same tone when he started predicting future events and actions like he used to do after he stayed in konoha.

Sometimes he will came to my office and started explaining events that he shouldn't know about.

Like when he mentioned Danzo's ROOT is still active, or the uchiha massacre, and even the hyuuga's affairs.

When I tried asking him, his answer was "I watched" what did he mean?? Did he spied on konoha for years??? I don't think that's the case.

With his mana I don't know anything he can do with his arts of 'magic'.
He only "watched" and predict everything just like that perhaps??

How much of a genius is this boy really is??

「What do you think he will do? 」 I asked.

「Mizuki will manipulate naruto to steal a scroll from here, naruto will learn the jutsu he needs to graduate, iruka will be there too.」

He said like it was obvious.

「Don't worry about it, naruto will learn clone jutsu and beat mizuki up before that. And that's when iruka graduate naruto」

He finished.

「how do you predict all of this?? And I don't think a boy who is not even a genin can defeat a chuunin with mere clone jut-」

He cut in again.

「oh, I'm not talking about normal clone jutsu, hokage-sama.」

「...Then What?? 」

I asked.

「shadow clones... 」

My pupil narrowed wider.

His explanations are always oddly specific, this boy truly is a demon.


Bonus:

Flash back 1 year ago

Uzumaki karma's POV

「I believe you don't want this Village to fall, but please tell me why is it that you let danzo get away with almost everything???」

I asked hokage sama, who is bewildered by my statement.

「what do you mean, karma-kun? I did let him get away from uzushiogakure's fall, but -」

「I'm not talking about that, hokage sama」 I said.

「I'm talking about how he spread the rumors about naruto's identity as a jinchuriki, how he raise conflict within the village and uchihas just so that he has his hands on sharingan, and probably how he ignored your commands and brings his living tools underground.」

Hokage-sama is dumbfounded.

「you think someone who smiles like an happy old man with multiple presence behind him who he liked to call "tools" can be trusted?

Have you not even wonder what happens with his arms and eyes??

With our technology he can just transplant an arm or eye long time ago, don't you wanna know what is he hiding below those bandages??? 」

Hokage sama is still silent.

「The answer is simple, sharingan.

Did you ever think if the uchiha's won't get their eyes butchered by him?」

「...Did you predict all of this? 」

Hokage-sama asked me calmly.

「Yes」 I replied with stoic face, I didn't really predict.

But hey, it's a half truth.

「how?」

「I watched-」

I managed to stop myself from going on a pit hole there...

Shit, hopefully he doesn't get the wrong idea how could I possibly say 'I watched the anime' that will be awkward.

He didn't asked anymore thankfully.

「I believe you didn't share this with anyone? 」 he asked.

I shook my head.

「good, please keep this a secret. And boy... you'll be the one buying my hair dye, If my hair turns white」

...that's quite the joke hokage-sama....

I do have a <permanent hair dye> from the gacha though...
