I Traveled to the Ninja World, and You Gave Me a Game Development System? (New Book, Please Support)

Ding~ System reading: 100%. Activation beginning.

On the night of June 17, Year 46 of Konoha, young Konoha Chunin Uchiha Qi lay at home as his mind jolted once, twice, three times—then violently.

An immense wave of ecstasy surged through him, nearly making Uchiha Qi, who had spent eighteen years in the Ninja World after transmigrating here and was still only a Chunin, burst into tears.

Finally!

After all these years, the cheat every transmigrator was supposed to have had finally appeared.

At that moment, joy and emotion completely overwhelmed Uchiha Qi's weathered heart.

After all, the Ninja World was a godforsaken place where bloodlines and cheats determined everything. Although Uchiha Qi was a member of Konoha's foremost noble clan, the Uchiha Clan, he came from a branch family, and his mother had merely been a Konoha civilian. As a result, his bloodline was considered highly impure within the Uchiha Clan—discarded scraps around the edges.

That was not a metaphor, nor was it some melodramatic dispute over legitimate and illegitimate birth. It was simply because his Uchiha bloodline was not pure enough, making his talent visibly trash.

Normally, Uchiha like him would not become ninjas. They would merely serve as "inferiors" within the clan, managing the Uchiha Clan's family businesses.

However, as a transmigrator, Uchiha Qi knew all too well how dangerous the ninja world was. He knew even more clearly that the Uchiha Clan would face the threat of extermination in the future.

Thus, Uchiha Qi had worked incredibly hard since childhood. Even though both the clan elders and outsiders thought his talent was poor, even though they believed he would have no future as a ninja, he had still desperately striven to become stronger through sheer hard work—just like Konoha's Blue Beast, who had nearly kicked out the ending with a single blow.

Yet reality proved that Uchiha Qi had been overthinking things.

Might Guy had become Guy-sensei because he was genuinely a Taijutsu genius. Uchiha Qi, on the other hand, was undoubtedly mediocre. No matter how desperately he trained, all he got in the end was the miserable result of "overtraining and getting injured."

On the day he strained his ligaments, Uchiha Qi understood that the Ninja World was fucking realistic to the extreme. Without cheats or an ultimate bloodline, no amount of hard work or desperation could prevent someone from being mediocre.

Those damn Otsutsuki Clan bastards had polluted the Ninja World's bloodlines and genes, turning it into a true caste society where nobles and kings really were born with superior blood.

And now, just as the Third Great Ninja War was about to begin, Uchiha Qi had accepted reality. He had planned to fake his death during the war, flee Konoha, and spend the rest of his life living anonymously in another country. Yet he had suddenly received the cheat he had long since despaired of and given up on.

Truly, heaven never sealed off every road.

At that moment, Uchiha Qi understood that his era had arrived!

So, System, get ready to boost my stats—Uchiha Qi had become so excited that he began letting his imagination run wild.

Ding~ The Super Game Producer System has completed activation. Please complete the development of a game as soon as possible. Newbie gift pack: the Game Production Mastery skill has been issued.

In an instant, an enormous amount of knowledge flooded into Uchiha Qi's mind, giving him the peculiar feeling of being contaminated by knowledge.

Except...

"...System, say that again. What kind of system are you? What functions do you have?" Uchiha Qi asked expressionlessly. His earlier excitement had vanished without a trace.

System: Super Game Producer System. Its function is to cultivate the host into the world's strongest game producer.

Uchiha Qi: "...What world am I currently in?"

System: Earth in the year 2024.

Uchiha Qi: "...? This is the Ninja World in Year 47 of Konoha!!!"

System: According to the scan, this is Earth in the year 2024. Please complete development of your first game as soon as possible.

Uchiha Qi: "??? You fucking @#￥%..."

At that moment, Uchiha Qi could not help swearing.

He had thought it was a system that would let him soar straight to the top and become a Protagonist. Instead, it was a system designed for an urban setting. This was screwing him over all the way to his grandmother's house.

And it looked intelligent, but it was actually an artificial idiot that could not even identify the world correctly.

Sure enough, becoming some Protagonist big shot with a system was pure wishful thinking. He should continue preparing to become a Konoha escapee instead.

After all, his father had already died in the line of duty in this life, while his mother had died of illness when he was young. He had long since had no family left in Konoha.

He did have a group of Red Eye clan members, but honestly, because he lacked talent and had stubbornly insisted on becoming a ninja, Uchiha Qi had made quite a few people in the clan dissatisfied. They felt that he embarrassed the Uchiha Clan whenever he went out, much like the young Uchiha Obito. In the words of some people, he was the "Disgrace of the Uchiha," and his situation felt somewhat like Xiao Yan's script. It was only because the Uchiha Clan was generally proud that he had not been openly bullied.

In such an environment of subtle cold violence, even after living for eighteen years, Uchiha Qi had only limited attachment to the place. Naturally, he had little psychological burden about running away.

Run, run, run! As long as he ran fast enough, the Ninja World was so damn big that everywhere could be home!

Of course, even if he wanted to run, that would have to wait at least two years. For now, Uchiha Qi still needed to obediently remain in the village as a law-abiding resident and avoid arousing suspicion. With his sensitive identity as an "Uchiha," trying to escape Konoha was basically no different from courting death.

So, lying in bed and feeling slightly bored, unable to sleep after the system activation, Uchiha Qi simply began studying the system.

As it turned out, whenever he called for the system, it only responded rigidly. It was not even as smart as Xiaomi's Xiao Ai assistant. If he kept talking, it would merely tell the host to quickly complete the newbie mission of developing his first game.

High emotional intelligence: The system was steadfastly helping the host become a top-tier game producer, unlike certain systems that plotted conspiracies and schemed against their hosts.

Low emotional intelligence: This system was an artificial idiot with extremely low intelligence!

Fuck, where was he supposed to make a game in this backward world, where not even the most basic computers or game consoles existed?

Though he inwardly complained about the artificial idiot system's unreliability, Uchiha Qi still examined the system activation newbie reward that had been implanted into his mind and committed every detail to memory: the Game Production Mastery skill. He wanted to see what it actually contained.

His mindset was simply to study it casually and pass the time.

But very quickly, Uchiha Qi discovered that something was wrong, and he soon sucked in a sharp breath.

"Is this really a game development skill? Since when is game development technology in your house this absurd?"

He could not help voicing his complaint, because the game production skill issued by the system was incredibly abstract—or rather, far too comprehensive.

Aside from the computer, game console, and mobile platforms Uchiha Qi knew about, it also included virtual reality, artificial intelligence, Spiritual Networks, and other gaming platforms that did not yet exist on Earth. It claimed to have scanned Earth in 2024, yet the skill it granted contained game development technology from several hundred years into the future.

Uchiha Qi felt that with such an absurdly comprehensive game development skill, even if he transmigrated to Earth in the year 2424, he probably would not need to worry about finding work.

Unfortunately, this was the Ninja World. To the Ninja World, these game development technologies were far too advanced. There was simply no way...

Wait, what the hell was this Spiritual Network? Could future humans directly use brain cells and thoughts as computers? Could people form Spiritual Networks through mental resonance?

Holy shit, what kind of high-tech black magic was this? It did not feel scientific at all. It sounded more like a fantasy concept from a magical story.

Uchiha Qi commented on the relevant knowledge in his mind, clicking his tongue in wonder.

Then, all of a sudden, he thought of something.

In a sense, the Ninja World was itself a fantasy world, and things related to the mind were not uncommon here.

Moreover, as a member of the Uchiha Clan, he understood such matters even more clearly.

After all, the Uchiha Clan possessed a Kekkei Genkai called the Sharingan. As the Eye That Reflects the Heart, the Sharingan itself was directly and intensely linked to a person's spirit. After awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan, it could even grant miraculous abilities corresponding to the desires in one's heart through the power of one's will.

In a sense, that was already an over-the-top case of the spirit interfering with reality.

So the question was, could he use the Sharingan or other methods related to the mind, together with the game development skill granted by the system, to develop and play games?

At that thought, Uchiha Qi fell into prolonged contemplation.

The more he thought about it and compared it to the characteristics of the Sharingan, the more he felt that game development truly had potential.

"Why not... give it a try?"

Muttering to himself, Uchiha Qi was tempted, so he simply did it.

Immediately, Uchiha Qi activated his Sharingan.

Though he was mediocre within the Uchiha Clan, he was still an eighteen-year-old Chunin. Naturally, activating the Sharingan was no problem. Although it was only a One Tomoe Sharingan, embarrassingly so for a transmigrator, he had at least managed to awaken it.

Then, while keeping his Sharingan active, Uchiha Qi closed his eyes and focused his spirit on the Sharingan. Using it as a "platform," he combined it with the Ninja World's distinctive Genjutsu techniques and began attempting game development according to the game production skill granted by the system.

As it turned out, he actually succeeded. As though it were only natural, a Spiritual Network-based game development interface appeared within Uchiha Qi's closed field of vision.

Everything flowed as naturally as water reaching a channel, as though doing this was easy.

However, it was actually the result of Uchiha Qi's eighteen years of hard work.

As one of the mediocre members of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Qi knew that his talent and aptitude were insufficient. Thus, he trained extremely diligently and, in order to compensate for his lack of natural ability, specifically strengthened certain details.

For example, Chakra control, as well as techniques such as spiritual refinement and perception—things normal Uchiha had no need to train at all, because the Sharingan alone could perfectly fill those gaps.

It was precisely because he had previously trained and strengthened those abilities that Uchiha Qi could now accomplish something so incredible as naturally as breathing.

Hard work really did pay off.

It simply required an opportunity, a platform.

Now, Uchiha Qi seemed to have obtained the platform and opportunity he had waited years for.

It was just that this opportunity and platform were actually being used to make games, which made it feel like a rather grim joke.

After all, no matter how good a game he made, could it really turn him into a Kage-level powerhouse?
