I woke up in an infinite void, surrounded by overwhelming silence. There was no light, no darkness, simply a colorless, formless space. My mind was blank. I didn't remember anything: not my name, not my past, not even how I had gotten there.
As he tried to understand the situation, a voice echoed through the void. It was soft and melodious, but had an unquestionable presence.
Welcome, lost soul.
I looked around, but there was no one. Still, I felt that voice was directed at me. Before he could respond, the voice continued.
You have reached the end of your existence in your previous world. However, you have a unique opportunity. I am what some would call an "omnipotent being", and I have decided to give you another life.
My heart, or whatever it was in this strange state, fluttered. Hereafter? What was he talking about? I couldn't help but ask:
Who... who are you? What does this mean?
I am an entity that will be in charge of guiding you in your new life. But before we continue, tell me, what kind of life would you like to have?
Such a simple question, but so loaded with possibilities. Something inside me, something I didn't know still existed, woke up. A latent desire, buried in my subconscious, emerged clearly.
I want to go to the world of Naruto. I said, almost without thinking.
A brief silence followed my words, and then I heard what could be interpreted as light laughter.
Interesting choice. So do you want to be born in that world? In what time? What do you want to achieve?
I thought for a moment. If I was going to be reborn, I wanted to be someone strong, someone capable of changing things.
I want to be reborn in the generation of Naruto and Sasuke. And I want to be powerful enough to influence history.
The voice of the being seemed to approve my answer.
That can be fixed. But there is something else. To help you on your path, I will grant you a special system. He will give you quests that, when completed, will provide you with skills, items, and knowledge. But I must warn you, the path you choose will depend entirely on your decisions. And before you ship, you have the opportunity to design your new look. What look do you want?
The idea excited me. If I was going to start over, I wanted to stand out. I closed my eyes—or whatever I used to "see" in this place—and thought. Finally, I spoke decisively.
I want to look like Tobirama Senju. White hair, piercing red eyes, an imposing figure. But it's not exactly the same, I want my appearance to have a unique touch. Perhaps with a younger look, an air of mystery.
Interesting choice. responded.
Everything is almost ready. Before you are reborn, do you have any questions for me?
I hesitated for a moment, but there was something I couldn't ignore.
Why did you choose me? Why give me this opportunity?
The voice softened, as if he were smiling.
That, little one, is something you will discover in time. Now, get ready. Your new life begins now.
A blinding flash filled the void, and for an instant, it felt like my consciousness was being ripped away and thrown into a whirlwind. Just before I lost track of everything, I heard one last phrase:
Oh, by the way, call me whatever you want, but... I think "Aya" would be a good name for me, don't you?
And then, everything went out. The next moment I opened my eyes, I felt the breeze of a new world, heard the sounds of distant birds, and for the first time in a long time or perhaps in my entire existence, I smiled. He had been reborn. And this time, I would do things my way.
________________________________________
As soon as I regained consciousness in this new space, I met Aya again. This time, he was not surrounded by an infinite void. The setting looked like a simple but bright room, with white walls and a desk in front of me. Behind that desk was her, or at least her representation: a girl with long silver hair, bright violet eyes, and a mysterious smile.
"Welcome back, user," he said, bowing his head slightly. Before launching you into this world, I wanted to explain some important details about your new life.
I crossed my arms and looked at her skeptically. Although his appearance was surprisingly friendly, his presence was still a little intimidating.
You've thrown a whirlwind of information at me before. What else do I need to know?
Aya smiled, as if waiting for my answer.
First, you are entitled to a welcome gift. Consider it a nudge to make your experience a little more interesting. You can choose between three options.
He snapped his fingers, and three holographic screens appeared in front of me. In each one, there was an image accompanied by a brief description.
Advanced Chakra Art: Instant mastery of the basics of chakra, perfect for mastering ninjutsu from the beginning.
Divine Eye: A unique doujutsu that grants special abilities not seen in that world.
Senju Bloodline: The power of regeneration and manipulation of wood, with a little extra: a deeper connection to the nature chakra.
I took a moment to think, but the decision was obvious.
I want the Senju Bloodline. If I'm going to be like Tobirama, I want some of his legacy too.
Good choice. Aya said, nodding in satisfaction. The Senju bloodline will give you a big boost, but keep in mind that it will be up to you to develop it to the fullest.
A golden flash enveloped me completely, and I felt as if my body was filled with energy, an energy I had not felt before. When the glow dissipated, Aya spoke again, this time with a more playful tone.
Now, there's something else I wanted to offer you. .
Anything else? I asked, intrigued.
Yes. A special function for your system. It's called Harem Mode.
I was paralyzed. .
That?. I said dumbfounded
Aya giggled, enjoying my confusion.
Just as you hear it. This function will allow you to conquer any girl in this new world. You will be able to see their emotions, their levels of romantic interest, and even their level of love for you.
Isn't that... a little excessive? I said a little awkwardly.
Oh, come on. It's a world full of powerful ninjas, intrigue and combat. A little romance won't hurt you. Plus, this feature has more uses than you imagine. You will be able to better understand the people around you and use that information to forge alliances or resolve conflicts.
I thought about it for a moment. As strange as it sounded, having the ability to understand people's feelings could be incredibly useful. Although the idea of the "harem" still seemed a little ridiculous, I couldn't deny that I could use it to my advantage.
Alright. I guess it won't hurt to try. I said going with the flow
Aya snapped her fingers again, and a heart-shaped icon appeared in the air in front of me.
Perfect. The system is now configured. Now, whenever you talk to someone, you will be able to see a colored bar that will represent their emotions. Green for friendship, yellow for interest, red for love and black for distrust. Additionally, you will also be able to see their names and some basic information.
"This is going to be interesting," I murmured.
Aya leaned forward, her smile wider than ever.
Oh, and before I forget... I've adjusted your appearance a bit. Don't worry, you still look like Tobirama, but with a more modern touch. I'm sure the girls will appreciate it.
I rolled my eyes, although I couldn't help but smile.
Very good, Aya. Anything else you want to add before I launch into this new world?
Just one more thing. Have fun.
And with that, the surroundings faded away, letting me fall towards my destination. The next thing I knew, I was in an open field, with the sound of the wind and birds all around. My new life had begun. And now, not only did he have the power of the Senju clan, but also a system that promised to change everything.
The wind blew gently, and the sunlight warmed my skin. I looked around; I was in a field full of green grass and wildflowers. There was something surreal about all of this. The world seemed more alive, more vibrant than he could remember from...well, wherever he came from.
A crystalline river ran calmly. The sound of flowing water attracted me, and, without thinking much, I approached. As I leaned over to look at my reflection on the surface of the water, I came across a face that was strange but familiar.
Snow-white hair fell messily on my forehead. My eyes were an icy blue, deep and penetrating, as if they hid a latent power. My skin was fair, my jawline was well defined, and there was something in my expression that made me appear calm but authoritative. If Tobirama Senju had a younger version, this would probably be it.
Tobirama: Wow... I murmured, observing myself carefully.
You look pretty good, right? Aya's voice rang in my mind, as clear as if she were right next to me.
Tobirama: Are you always going to suddenly appear like this? I asked, rolling my eyes.
Oh, come on, don't be grumpy. You know you like having me here.
I sighed, but couldn't help but smile slightly.
Tobirama: It's okay, Aya. Now that I'm here, what's next? You said it would have a system with stats and skills. I want to see what I have.
"Of course," he responded enthusiastically. Simply say "Open Status" and the screen will appear in front of you.
Without much thought, I spoke the words.
Open State.
A holographic screen appeared in front of me, floating in the air. It was translucent, with letters and numbers standing out in a bright blue.
Name: Tobirama
Age: 12 years
Clan: Senju
Current Rank: Academy Student
Bloodline: Senju (Advanced regeneration, affinity with the Wood Element, Water Element and the Nature Chakra)
Statistics:
Strength: 15
Agility: 14
Resistance: 18
Chakra: 22
Chakra Control: 20
Intelligence: 17
Charisma: 16
Active Skills:
Senju Regeneration (Passive): Recovers minor wounds quickly.
Chakra Affinity (Wood): Level 1 (You can sense and manipulate nature chakra more easily).
Special System Abilities:
Harem Mode: Active (Allows you to see emotions and levels of romantic interest).
Tobirama: So my name is Tobirama, huh? I asked, reading the screen carefully.
I thought it would be appropriate. Aya replied with a giggle. You can't look like him without having a worthy name.
Tobirama: I guess you're right.
I looked at my stats. Although they seemed a little low compared to what I remembered from characters like Naruto or Sasuke, I had a good base to start with. What stood out the most was my chakra level and control, which made sense for someone from the Senju clan.
Your stats are pretty balanced for your age. Aya commented. As you complete missions, they will grow, and you will also unlock new abilities.
Tobirama: And how do the missions work?
It's simple. Some I will assign to you directly, but others will arise from the decisions you make in this world. For example, if you decide to train with someone, that could trigger a training mission. Oh, and I almost forgot: you can also receive special rewards for missions related to Harem Mode.
Tobirama: I don't know if that's something I should be proud of... I muttered.
Trust me, it will be useful to you.
I turned off the screen with a wave of my hand and sighed. It was a lot to process, but something in me was excited for what was to come.
Tobirama: Very good, Aya. I'm ready to start. What is the first thing I should do?
Aya paused before answering, as if she was planning something.
First, you should go to the Ninja Academy. You're already registered as a student, and it's the perfect place to start making connections... and activate Harem Mode, of course.
Tobirama: Of course you mention it again...
With one last look at the river and my reflection, I stood up. It was time to face this world and see how far it could go. And although I wouldn't admit it out loud, I felt lucky to have Aya with me. This was going to be interesting.
I was about to take my first step towards this new life when Aya's voice echoed in my mind, this time with a more serious tone.
Wait a minute, Tobirama.
I stopped dead, turning to nowhere, as she only existed inside my head.
Tobirama: What happens now? Anything else you forgot to tell me?
It's something important. You are being watched.
My senses were instantly heightened. I looked around, but didn't detect anything out of the ordinary.
Tobirama: By who?
For the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi responded, his tone firm. It seems he is aware of your existence and suspects that you might be one of the last members of the Senju clan.
A chill ran through my body. The Senju clan had almost completely disappeared after the era of Hashirama and Tobirama. The fact that someone as important as the Hokage was aware of me from the beginning did not bode well.
Tobirama: How is that possible? I have just arrived into this world.
Let's say it wasn't a coincidence that I placed you right here. Aya explained. Hiruzen has been keeping an eye out for any signs of descendants of the Senju. Your resemblance to Tobirama is too striking to go unnoticed.
Tobirama: Great...
I muttered sarcastically, running a hand through my white hair.
Don't be alarmed yet. Aya continued, trying to calm me down. For now, he's just watching you. He doesn't know who you are exactly, but he's curious. That could be good or bad, depending on how you handle the situation.
Tobirama: And what do you suggest I do? Act as if nothing happened or face the problem head on?
Aya paused, thoughtful.
For now, act naturally. Go to the Academy as planned and start settling down. As long as you don't give a reason to be more suspicious, the Hokage will only watch you from a distance. However...
Tobirama: What? Is there anything else? I asked, feeling like there was always something more with Aya.
Well, being technically a member of the Senju clan, that makes you a rarity. And don't forget that Danzo, with his obsession with power, could also become interested in you if he found out about your existence.
That name set off an alarm in my mind. Danzo Shimura was a dangerous figure in this world, someone who manipulated everything from the shadows. If he found out about me...
Tobirama: "This is getting more and more complicated," I murmured.
It's part of the challenge of this world, Tobirama. But remember, you also have your own advantages. You are stronger than you seem, and you have your system. Use this as an opportunity to show that you can be one step ahead of everyone.
I took a deep breath, taking it all in.
Tobirama: Okay. I won't let that stop me. If the Third Hokage wants to observe me, let him do so. I'm not going to hide.
"That's the attitude," Aya said with a note of satisfaction. Now, don't waste any more time. Go to the Academy and start building your path.
With one last look at the horizon, I adjusted my posture and began walking towards the town. I felt the pressure of being watched, but also a burning determination within me. He had not come to this world to live under the shadows of others; I was here to make my own mark.
Hiruzen could watch me all he wanted. He would soon show her that he was not a threat, but someone destined for great things.
Tobe continue...
