Sousuke Akai stood in the quiet lecture hall of the grand library. The air was filled with a faint hum, emanating from the countless books and scrolls from all the different worlds. He now had everything he needed to begin. But before he could plan his next steps, there was one thing he needed to take care of first.
In his hand, he held the golden card—the Character Inheritance Card. Its surface shimmered faintly, and he knew this card was the key to another great leap in his power. Taking a deep breath, he activated the card.
"Character inheritance is being applied..."
The system's voice echoed in his mind.
Suddenly, the room was flooded with a bright, mysterious light. It began to flow around him in gentle waves, growing stronger until it merged with his aura. He felt an overwhelming surge of power as the knowledge and abilities of an ancient warrior imprinted themselves into his being. He saw flashes of battles, fire, blades, and a man radiating relentless strength.
"The inheritance of Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni has been successfully integrated."
Sousuke gasped as the vast influx of information and power exploded within him. Yamamoto Genryūsai, the legendary leader of the Gotei 13 from the Bleach universe, was now a part of him. The thousand years of experience from a warrior who had fought through countless battles now flowed through Sousuke's mind. The knowledge of Yamamoto's techniques, his unparalleled control over fire, and his immense, devastating strength fused with Sousuke's own.
But that wasn't all. He could feel his chakra capacity soaring to unimaginable heights. It was as if he had suddenly tapped into the boundless energy of a creature like the Jūbi, yet this energy was orderly, controlled, and ready to be shaped according to his will. The immense power resting within him now dwarfed anything the strongest shinobi had ever achieved. Sousuke was awestruck by the strength he now possessed—and all this without even having released his own Zanpakutō.
He closed his eyes and allowed the new sensations to settle within him. The vast power Yamamoto had amassed over centuries was taking shape inside him, and he felt a new sense of resolve igniting in his heart. He was no longer just a passerby in this world. He had the potential to reshape and change it.
"So, this is the power I wield now," he whispered softly. A smile crept onto his lips, but it wasn't the smile of an arrogant conqueror. It was the smile of a man who knew he had a mission.
"Justice."
The word echoed in his mind. It was the core idea upon which the Marines were built—to uphold justice. In the One Piece world, that concept had often been twisted by the corruption of the World Government, but Sousuke knew he would do things differently. He would enforce true justice. He envisioned a world where children were not pawns in the schemes of the powerful, where they weren't brainwashed by ideologies like the "Will of Fire." Children should just be children—free from war and manipulation.
With this newfound determination, he sat at a table in the vast library and began to organize his thoughts.
"First step: Build a nation founded on justice."
Sousuke knew that if he wanted to change the world, he had to start by building a stable nation. It wasn't enough to be powerful on his own. He needed to create a system based on justice and fairness, a country that could serve as a model for the entire world.
"What makes a strong nation?" The question echoed in his mind as he began jotting down his ideas.
1. A Stable Government
At the heart of any nation was a stable and just government. He wanted to create a system strong enough to protect its people, yet flexible enough to respond to their needs. He would draft a constitution that safeguarded the fundamental rights of all citizens and set clear limits on governmental power. From the outset, corruption had to be eradicated.
He envisioned a council made up of elected representatives who would represent different sectors of society. This council would make decisions for the country but under strict checks to prevent any abuse of power.
2. A Fair Judicial System
Justice had to be the backbone of society. He planned to develop a judicial system that was based on fairness, transparency, and independence. Judges and lawyers would be rigorously trained and selected based on their abilities and moral integrity.
The laws should protect the people, not oppress them. Everyone would have the right to a fair trial, and the justice system had to be so transparent that every citizen could trust in it.
3. Education for All
Education was the key to a just society, and Sousuke knew this better than anyone. His plan was to establish a school system where every child would have access to high-quality education, regardless of their background or social status.
Basic education would be mandatory for all children, focusing on subjects such as mathematics, science, history, and the arts. But it would go beyond that. There would be specialized schools for ninjas, where both physical and mental disciplines were taught. Every student would have the freedom to choose their own path.
In addition, there would be adult education programs. Every citizen should have the opportunity to continue learning, no matter their age. Education would be a lifelong process, one that constantly adapted to the needs of individuals and society.
4. Economy and Employment
The economy of a nation needed to be strong and stable to provide prosperity for its people. Sousuke envisioned an economic system based on free trade and solid infrastructure, but one that also ensured the well-being of its citizens. Everyone should have access to jobs that suited their skills, and there would be programs to help people acquire new skills if they became unemployed.
He wanted to ensure that businesses could thrive, but never at the expense of the people.
5. Health and Well-being
A healthy population was the foundation of a strong nation.
Sousuke planned to implement a healthcare system that would provide every citizen with access to medical care. Everyone should have the opportunity to live a healthy life and receive quality medical treatment, regardless of their financial situation.
He also envisioned specialized programs for mental health, knowing how crucial emotional well-being was for the stability and success of a society.
Hours passed as Sousuke continued to develop his plans. He considered every possible challenge, every loophole that could be exploited to breed corruption, and devised solutions for each one. He wrote and sketched until he had crafted a complex, yet functional, structure for his vision.
"It will take time," he muttered to himself, "but with the right foundation, I can build something lasting."
He thought of the children in the Naruto world, raised as tools of war. It was time for a change. It was time to create a world where justice was upheld for all.
