Chapter 1 - Chapter 1+2: The Rise of Yuto

Chapter 1

Konoha Year 38

Hissss... My head throbbed as he blinked back into consciousness. What happened? The memory was a blur, a strange mix of images and emotions, none of which made sense. He struggled to steady my breath. Who am I? No, whose memory is this?

He forced myself to take deep, slow breaths, trying to calm the chaos in my mind. Breathe in… breathe out... Slowly, the fog cleared, and everything fell into place, like puzzle pieces locking together. Wait... Did I… travel to the world of Naruto? My pulse quickened as realization hit. Am I the only son of the largest weapons dealer in the Fire Country?

I clenched my fists, when the situation cleared and wrap around me. My parents... they're dead. They died while traveling. I'm alone now, left to inherit everything they built. But it wasn't just that—I wasn't only Yuto Watanabe, a four-year-old orphan in the capital city of the Fire Country. No, I also held memories from another life, from a completely different world. I had died on Earth at the age of eighteen, in a world where crime and violence weren't uncommon for someone like me, a weapon trader for criminals but was also peaceful for normal people. And now... I had awakened in this world, filled with shinobi, chakra, and unimaginable dangers.

Calm down, I reminded myself. First, assess the situation.

Uncle Jack. My butler. He's been taking care of me and the family business even before my parents passed. I remembered him clearly—his towering figure, his calm, steady demeanor. He was a kage-level shinobi, bound by a seal that guaranteed his loyalty to my family but which was of need because there family always take care of our family. With him around, I was safe, for now. But I couldn't rely on him forever. This world was far more dangerous than Earth had ever been. Here, power ruled. The weak were trampled, and even the strong could fall prey to those more weaker the them by the help of human wave tactics, killing people by dragging them to death. If I wanted to survive, I couldn't stay weak.

I needed strength.

I stood up from the bed, my small body feeling foreign and awkward. I looked around my room, the high ceilings, the luxurious furniture—reminders of my parents' wealth and influence. None of it would save me if I didn't get stronger.

"Is there a system?" I murmured, my voice trembling with both hope and fear.

[Yes, host.]

My breath caught. It was real.

[Do you want to bind the system?]

"Yes," I whispered, barely able to believe my luck.

[Ding: Creation System is binding... Binding successful.]

[Ding

This system will change as per host wish and desires]

My heart raced. I took a deep breath, trying to calm my excitement it's like wishing system. "Status," I commanded, eager to see what I had to work with.

[Host: Yuto Watanabe

Age: 4years

Gender: Male

Level: Genin

Soul coins: 10,000

Skills: All Eye (Allows you to see the level and status of anything)]

I stared at the words floating in front of me. A system… a real system, just like in those novels. But I wasn't here to live out a fantasy. I was here to survive, and that meant using every advantage I had. The sooner I grew stronger, the safer I'd be.

[Ding

"Do you want to open the novice gift pack?"]

The system prompted.

"Yes."

[Ding

Opening....

Opening successful.]

[Skill 1 - Soul Cultivation and Absorption: Can cultivate on its own and absorb all soul power and 5-30% of the chakra and ninjutsu experience of enemies.]

[Skill 2 - Soul Cloning and Perfect Possession: Create soul clones that can possess individuals by using soul coins relative to there level. Clones are perfect copies and can synchronize with the original, feeding cultivation back.]

I stood there, frozen in disbelief. These skills... they were incredible. Almost overpowered. This is a pie from the sky, I thought, a smile creeping onto my lips. But I needed to stay focused. This world was unforgiving, and power came with responsibility. I couldn't afford to waste any opportunity.

But first, I needed to test these powers. And what better way than with the people who killed my parents?

"Uncle Jack!" I called out, my voice echoing in the vast room.

Moments later, the door opened, and Uncle Jack entered. He bowed slightly, his deep voice as steady as ever. "Yes, Master Yuto?"

"Bring me the people responsible for my parents' deaths," he said, with his voice cold. He could feel the weight of those words, "I want them here, Now. He said"

Jack's eyes widened slightly but quickly returned to their neutral state. He didn't questioned. "At once, Master Yuto."

As Jack left to carry out my orders, Yuto took a moment to gather my thoughts. He wasn't the same person he used to be. Earth's Yuto had been cold, calculating, and always looking out for himself and was in the middle of the food chain. But in this world, with these new powers,he had to be more than that. He had be on top of the world

Yuto thought of Jenny, Uncle Jack's daughter. She had been by my side since we were children. She was my only friend in this world, the only person who cared for me the most

"Uncle Jack," he said as Jack returned. "Also… bring Jenny here."

"Of course," he replied, his tone respectful but curious. He left again, and I was left alone with my thoughts.

Minutes passed before both Uncle Jack and Jenny reappeared. Jenny, a six-year-old girl with bright eyes and a warm smile, bowed slightly when she entered. "Good afternoon, young master," she said softly.

"Jenny," Yuto said, meeting her eyes, "how many times do I have to tell you? Call me brother Yuto."

She pouted, her face scrunching up. "But… I'm older than you! It doesn't feel right."

I smirked at her stubbornness, but my mind was elsewhere. I activated the All Eye, and information about her appeared before me.

| Status:

Name: Jenny

Age: 6 years

Level: Genin

Skills: Chef, Physical Arts, management and miscellaneous work|

"Jenny," Yuto said suddenly, "I want you to marry me."

Her eyes widened, and even Uncle Jack looked taken aback. "What?" they both said in unison.

He looked at Jack. "You promised my father we'd be married," I said firmly. "We'll make it official this month."

"But…" Jenny stuttered, her cheeks turning red. "Young master, I—"

"Do you not love me?" I asked, my voice choked and sad

"No!" she cried, her face beet red. "I mean, yes! I mean… I do love you…"

"Then it's settled," he said with a mischievous smile. He took the pendant from around my neck and held it out to her. "This belonged to my mother. Now it's yours."

Jenny hesitated for a moment, then took the pendant with trembling hands. She held it close, her eyes shining with emotion. They embraced, and in that moment, I promised myself I would protect her, no matter the cost.

Uncle Jack cleared his throat. "Master Yuto… the criminals are here."

He took a kunai and turned, feeling the weight of the kunai in his hand. The time for hesitation was over.

All eyes Yuto muttered

[Status pannel

| 13 shinobies

One elite Jounin

Two Jounin

Six Chunin

Four Genin|]

Yuto Pierced the kunai through the heart of thvze criminals. He felt uncomfortable, after killing for the first time, He stood over the fallen criminals, his heart pounding as he pulled the kunai from their lifeless bodies. The rush of killing had subsided, leaving him in an uneasy stillness. Guilt nagged at him, a small voice in the back of his mind whispering that taking lives was wrong. Yet, an undeniable sense of relief washed over him—he had avenged the wrongs committed against his family. Justice had been served, and that made him feel powerful.

As he stared down at the fallen men, he couldn't shake the feeling that this moment would change everything. The weight of their lives rested heavily on his shoulders, but deep down, he knew he would do it again.

Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed in his mind, pulling him from his thoughts.

Chapter 2

"Uncle Jack," Yuto called, his voice steady despite the turmoil within. "Please bring me the bodies of the three Jounins. Dispose of the rest."

Jack moved quickly, his face a mask of obedience. He had served Yuto's family for years and was well aware of the young boy's extraordinary potential. Jenny, however, remained by Yuto's side, her brow furrowed in confusion.

"What do you want to do with the bodies?" she asked, a hint of worry in her voice.

Yuto turned to her, his eyes gleaming with tenderness but determination . "You'll see in a minute."

Minutes later, Jack returned, dragging the bodies of the three Jounins behind him. The sight was grim, their lifeless forms a stark reminder of the violence that surrounded them. "Master Yuto, the bodies are here," Jack announced, his voice low and respectful.

"Excellent," Yuto replied, his heart racing with anticipation. He could feel the power surging within him, waiting to be unleashed. "System, use their souls to activate Soul Possession."

[Ding

Using Soul Possession: With 10 minutes, the person will be revived and will become loyal to you. Do you want to proceed?

Yuto gasped, his eyes widening at the prompt. Could it be true? The thought of reviving the fallen Jounins thrilled him. "Yes! Proceed!"]

[Ding

Using 6,000 Soul Coins. Possession successful.]

In an instant, the three Jounins stirred, their eyes fluttering open. They knelt before Yuto, their expressions a mix of confusion and reverence. "Lord, we await your orders," they said in unison.

Jenny's mouth dropped open in disbelief, and Uncle Jack looked on with wide eyes. "This... this is incredible," Jack stammered, checking the Jounins' pulses to confirm they were alive. "How is this possible?" He turned to Yuto, awe evident on his face.

Yuto stood tall, a newfound authority radiating from him. "Anyone who dies within ten minutes can be resurrected, but they will become loyal to me. It requires a mysterious energy that I can gather by killing or some amount every day." The weight of his words hung in the air, each syllable carrying the weight of his ambitions.

Uncle Jack and Jenny exchanged glances, both realizing that Yuto had awakened a rare and formidable blood succession.

"Master Yuto, you truly are extraordinary," Jack said, a proud smile breaking across his face.

Yuto felt a swell of pride but also knew this was just the beginning. "I'm going to rest now and won't be eating tonight. Let's have a meeting tomorrow morning at breakfast." He turned to Jenny, extending his hand. "Would you like to come with me and get some sleep?"

Jenny blushed at the offer but nodded, feeling a flutter in her chest. They moved together, and Uncle Jack watched them with a smile, thinking how fortunate Jenny was. "Such a lovely pair," he mused aloud. "But Master Yuto will need to marry more wives to strengthen the family. Let's encourage Jenny to become the main wife."

Once in their room, Yuto and Jenny lay on the bed. After a moment of silence, Yuto broke it. "Hey, Jenny, are you asleep?"

"No," she replied softly.

"Do you think I can become the richest and strongest?" Yuto asked, the dream spilling out of him. "I want to marry many wives, have many children, and create the strongest clan in the Ninja World."

Jenny frowned, pouting slightly. "You can be the richest and strongest, but is it really necessary to marry many wives?"

"Yes," Yuto said, his tone in gentle.

"Okay, but I have to be the main one!" she insisted, her voice laced with determination she couldn't say no to Yuto from when he started speaking.

"Alright, alright," he laughed, pulling her into a hug. "I promise." He rested her head against his chest, feeling her warmth, and began to coax her to sleep.

[Ding]

[Ding

"Hey, System, are you conscious?" he inquired.

[Ding

"...,.Okay...… are you male or female?" he asked.

Yuto felt a sense of relief wash over him. "Phew... Can you tell me about yourself? What's your name?"

[Ding

"Would you like me to give you one?" he asked, curious.
