As Sasuke's body started to disappear, his soul shuddered and felt cold, He had failed to avenge his clan and now confronted the grim aftermath. The quest for revenge had brought him to this fatal moment, The ignited Sharingan intensified his rage and restlessness, as he revisited the memories of his past—both a gift and a torment—that stoked the flames of his fury and impatience. As darkness encroached upon his sight, a serene and distant voice shattered the quiet, contrasting with his stormy reflections.
"[System]: System activation initiated due to the sudden death of the host. Emergency procedures are commencing."
Sasuke sensed his essence being torn from his reality, thrown into the unknown abyss of the void.
======= ==========
He awoke in an unfamiliar room, its walls stark and unadorned. Surveying his surroundings, he realized he was in a bedroom, accompanied only by a bed and a closet, yet he had no recollection of how he came to be there.
He walked towards the mirror and faced his reflection with apprehension. The face looking back at him was a paradox, both familiar and foreign. His black hair fell over his youthful features, and his dark eyes held a trace of his hatred.
[ System: "Greetings, Sasuke. Welcome to the system space.I am here to guide and assist you. This system has been designed to help you conquer goddesses in different worlds." ]
Sasuke realized this was the most common theme in many novels where the system would only activate after the protagonist's demise, this thought alone was enough to fuel a surge of resentment within him, prompting the bitter musing, ''Do I have to die for you to get active?''
"As long as you follow the original path of your life and attain adulthood, the system will activate automatically."
"That's impossible; I would never follow the original destiny," Sasuke said.just thinking about the original story of Sasuke, he feel disgusted. "do you think after I reach 18 years old I will still be able to take revenge every year I delay? They are getting stronger." His voice was bitter.
"[System: without knowing my existence, what you said makes sense," the voice replied dispassionately.]
Sasuke was engulfed in a storm of feelings, wrestling with the unknowns of what lay ahead. He decided to believe in the system for now.
"Why did the Sage of Six Paths strike me down?" he inquired, his voice laced with frustration.
"[System]: Host, you already know the answer! He had been waiting for Naruto for the last 1000 years, and you were about to kill Naruto. He might have wanted both of you to work together to protect the Ninja world and wait for a new savior, but you were about to destroy everything."
---
"I just planned to kill some high-level people and those related to them, and that stupid Naruto who tried to..." he snapped, his words tinged with resentment.
"[System]: Host, stop your ranting. For now, consider your options," the voice interrupted, prompting Sasuke to ponder his next move.
"What are my options?" he queried, his resolve faltering.
"[System]: Host, you have two options. You can return to the Naruto world, where you have a 100% chance of dying, or you can hide and travel to different worlds, acquire new abilities, and enjoy your new life."
Sasuke's voice barely rose above a whisper, resonating with desolation and solitude. "What about my revenge?" he murmured.
The system, devoid of emotion, responded matter-of-factly, "I'm not designed for revenge. I'm a goddess collector system intended to aid in attracting females." Upon hearing this, Sasuke felt a wave of disappointment. His focus shattered as conflicting emotions surged within him. How could he reconcile his thirst for revenge, Feeling lost and unsettled, Sasuke turned to the system, seeking answers for his agitated emotions. "Is there something wrong with my emotions?" he questioned; uncertainty palpable in his tone.
The system paused, considering its response. "Your spirit appears to be stable," it finally replied.
"Without a physical body, I cannot judge anything."
Observing Sasuke inspecting his hands and feet, the system added,
"You're just an incorporeal form.''
As the system provided its answer, Sasuke fell silent. Both of the options were not acceptable, so he didn't want to choose.
Looking at Sasuke, who was not choosing any of the options the system suggested,
["I will attempt to reverse the timeline of the Naruto world, perhaps one or two years earlier," the system proposed. "You can start traveling to different worlds, complete missions, grow stronger, and achieve your goals. ]
Upon learning about time reversal, Sasuke questioned whether the system could specifically reverse time to the night of the genocide, seeking a pivotal change in events.
[ The system clarified, "The process of reversing time is already depleting a considerable portion of my energy reserves. Should I extend the reversal beyond three years, you would lose the memories you currently possess. 'Regaining those memories after returning to the night of the genocide doesn't make sense, as it would mean experiencing the same pain twice without any benefit. ]
Slightly disappointed, Sasuke inquired, "Will there be a way for me to safely reverse the time in the future?" The system's response was hard to swallow.
"It will become increasingly challenging with time. Even if you try, you might create a branch timeline, which you would not want.
"Immersed in thought, Sasuke then asked about the system's abilities.
"As I said, you get system points," the system clarified. "These points can be used in the system mall to exchange for daily necessities, weapons, knowledge, or training yourself or other girls. You can acquire system points by collecting girls, assisting them, or completing system missions."
Sasuke asked, "Is there any starter pack?"
"Besides this system space, you will receive a new Mangekyou Sharingan from the start," the system replied. "Additionally, your chakra will be improved to make it more compatible with multiple uses, and you'll also receive ten healing potion bottles."
Sasuke raised a concern: "Didn't I already have the Mangekyou Sharingan?"
"Upon reversing time, your current Mangekyou Sharingan will vanish, and a new one will be bestowed upon you, integrating with your body."
He inquired, ''Can you merge them after I awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan so I can achieve the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan?''
The system clarified, "Host, fusing the same Sharingan to obtain the Eternal Kaleidoscope isn't possible." Sasuke questioned further, "Isn't it wasteful to fuse the Mangekyō Sharingan if they can't grant me the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan?"
[ The system reassured him, "You'll receive a Mangekyō Sharingan, which is more durable and on the same level as Indra. Achieving the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan is very easy for you, so you shouldn't be worried about getting an upgrade. ]
As Sasuke absorbed the system's advice and pondered his options, a sense of defiance stirred within him. Sasuke closed his eyes briefly, taking a deep breath. Now with time reversal, Sasuke knew that if this didn't solve his problems, no one else could fix them. this marked the beginning of a new chapter, a chance to reshape his destiny.
