Wu Liang returned to the Lord's Manor. Segghardt was alone in the hall, leisurely sipping tea. Seeing Wu Liang return, he hurriedly rose and bowed respectfully. "The Young City Lord is back. How long will you be staying this time? Don't tell me you've brought some high-end combat power back to the Lord's Manor again. That'd be wonderful."

"Get lost, get lost. No, I only brought Bai Qi back this time. He's not some high-end combat power, just as weak as me," Wu Liang said disdainfully as he looked at the grinning Segghardt.

"Oh? A combat servant. I'm really jealous of you, kid. You get to follow the Young City Lord around and have fun everywhere. We don't have that kind of luck. We're not even as fortunate as Xiao Tian. Even though he's only level 87, at least he can go down anytime and deal with the natives." Segghardt nodded at Bai Qi.

"Alright, alright. Go arrange a room for Bai Qi. After that, do whatever you want." Wu Liang first had Segghardt arrange Bai Qi's room, then told Bai Qi, "Everyone you see in the Lord's Manor is one of us. If you need anything, just tell those Exorcists. If your hands get itchy and you want to practice swordsmanship, have someone take you to the training ground. It has every facility you'll need."

Once everything had been arranged, Wu Liang took little Kanna back to his room.

Back in his room, after thinking it over, Wu Liang took the Otherworld Experience Card from his Portable Space. Looking outside, he saw that it was nearly dark.

"Seria, if I use this Otherworld Experience Card, and the story I experience lasts more than ten years, will more than ten years pass in this world as well?" Wu Liang seriously asked Seria in his mind.

Seria said, "Host, you're overthinking it. It's called an Experience Card. What does that mean? It means it's for you to experience. No matter how long you spend in the experience world, only one second will pass in Douluo World. Besides, unless the items you obtain in the other world are special items recognized by the system, or things you earn through missions, they will all be removed after you return. Your body will also revert to its original state after your return."

"Is that so? Then what if it isn't an Experience Card?"

Seria said, "There are several types of non-experience cards, including Otherworld Travel Cards, Otherworld Mission Cards, Otherworld Character Cards, Otherworld Lottery Cards, Otherworld Exclusive Cards, and many more. Let me give you a simple introduction.

Otherworld Travel Card: You can travel to another world. Everything you obtain, aside from people, can be brought back. The time ratio is one day to one year. In other words, one day in Douluo World equals one year in the other world.

Otherworld Mission Card: It randomly generates a mission world. You can return after completing the mission. During that time, all items obtained, aside from mission items, cannot be brought out.

Otherworld Character Card: You can randomly draw a protagonist or supporting character from another world as a servant or combat servant.

Otherworld Lottery Card: It randomly selects another world, then lets you draw randomly within that world. The lottery pool includes characters, items, origin laws, and more.

Otherworld Exclusive Card: It randomly selects another world, then allows you to choose exclusive items, characters, weapons, and so on belonging to that world's protagonist.

So? Aren't you jealous now? Unfortunately, these cards can only be obtained from the monthly sign-in boxes. They can't appear in the shop. So, do you want them or not?"

After hearing Seria's introduction, Wu Liang suddenly felt that the Otherworld Experience Card in his hand no longer seemed so appealing. "Seria, I think you did that on purpose."

Seria said, "I didn't. It wasn't me. I definitely wouldn't retaliate out of envy because you stepped in dog shit and drew an Otherworld Experience Card."

"Seria, you gave yourself away. So how do I use this Otherworld Experience Card?" Wu Liang asked seriously.

Seria said, "You want to use it?"

"Yeah. Tell me how."

Seria said, "Just tear it open."

After hearing how to use the Otherworld Experience Card, Wu Liang no longer hesitated. He tore it in half, and then everything went black as he lost consciousness. Only Seria's notification continued to ring in his mind.

Seria said, "Otherworld Experience Card successfully used."

Seria said, "Searching for another world. Search successful."

Seria said, "Opening the dimensional gate."

Seria said, "Travel successful. Arranging identity. Identity arrangement successful."

Seria said, "Registering identity. Registration successful."

Seria said, "May the host enjoy the experience. The time limit for this experience is Part One. You will return to the main world once the experience ends or if you die prematurely."

Wu Liang had no idea how much time passed. He remained in a dazed state, instinctively eating and drinking, as though he had become a baby without the slightest self-awareness.

By the time Wu Liang's consciousness returned to his mind, six years had already passed. In other words, Wu Liang had been in this other world for six years.

The instant Wu Liang regained consciousness, the muddled memories of the past six years gradually surfaced in his mind like a movie, slow yet profound.

His memories of the first three years were always fragmented. In them, only a lonely yet kind woman appeared, holding him in her arms. She should have been his mother in this world. As for his father, judging from the memories of the latter three years, he was certain he had never seen him. In other words, for the past six years, it had been this kind yet sorrowful and lonely mother who cared for him. But today, after regaining consciousness, he found himself standing before a small gravestone. A bouquet of flowers lay beside it, clearly placed there by him just moments ago. The photograph on the gravestone was that kind yet lonely face from his memories.

Minako Senju. That was the woman's name. She had been a medical ninja, killed by spies several days ago while treating someone at the ninja hospital. Wu Liang had been left alone in this village, and that village was the famed Konoha Village.

Seria said, "Host, your travel to the other world was successful. Enjoy your experience."

"Seria, are you sure I'll enjoy this experience? I just regained consciousness and was met with this. Couldn't you have given me a better identity? Why did it have to be an orphan?" Wu Liang said irritably.

Seria said, "Host, know when to quit while you're ahead. Look at your own information."

"Hm?" Wu Liang had wanted to complain, but hearing Seria say that, he opened his information card.

Current Otherworld: Naruto Host: Wu Liang, Ryo Senju Physique: Sun God Demigod Body, Sage Body Bloodline Limits: Wood Release, Yin Release Chakra Attributes: Water, Fire, Earth, Yin Strength: Chakra Refinement not yet begun, none.

"Th-This... Seria, what's going on? Why do I have Wood Release and Yin Release? I can understand Yin Release, but I don't have Wood Release," Wu Liang said in shock after reading his information card.

Seria said, "When you traveled here and registered your identity with this world's Heavenly Dao, you were randomly assigned to the Senju Clan. That is why you possess the Senju Clan's Wood Release bloodline limit. However, because of your Sun God Demigod Body, your Sage Body and Wood Release were also activated. I have to say, Host, your luck with stepping in dog shit is truly powerful."

"What else can I say? In any case, I can't bring anything I obtain in this world back to Douluo World. I can only enjoy myself in this world for now." Wu Liang calmed down after his shock.

"Mm, not bad. Such composure is rare," Seria praised.

Just as Wu Liang was about to say something else, an Anbu wearing a cat-face mask appeared behind him and said, "Wu Liang, the Hokage wants to see you."

Wu Liang was somewhat stunned. He had no idea why the old Third Hokage wanted to see him now, but he obediently followed the cat-faced Anbu to the Hokage's office.

The Anbu ninja knocked on the door, then gestured for Wu Liang to enter.

Just as Wu Liang wondered why the old Third Hokage had summoned him, the old man's voice came from inside. "Come in."

Wu Liang pushed the door open and entered. He looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage seated behind the desk, but did not speak.

The old Third Hokage also studied the small figure before him.

The Third Hokage before him was not yet truly old. His body was still fairly robust, he did not have much white hair yet, and he merely looked somewhat haggard.

"You are Ryo Senju of the Senju Clan, correct?" The Third Hokage slowly asked as he looked at the small figure before him.

Hearing the Third Hokage break the silence, Wu Liang raised his head and looked at him. "My name is Wu Liang, Lord Third Hokage."

"Uh..."

Hearing this, the Third Hokage said awkwardly, "There is no Wu surname in Konoha Village. Your father was Mori Senju, another direct branch of the Senju Clan besides Tsunade. After the First Hokage ordered the clan members to split up and scatter throughout the Land of Fire, he wandered back to Konoha under the alias Wu Ya. He died six years ago during the Nine-Tails Attack."

"I don't know anything about what you said. I have never met my so-called father, and Mother unfortunately died in the recent battle with the spies. However, Mother was indeed surnamed Senju," Wu Liang said calmly.

The Third Hokage looked at the child before him. No matter what, he was his teacher's clansman and should be properly cared for. Thus, he gently said, "Fine. No matter how much you deny it, you are still a Senju. You are already six years old, the age to enter the Ninja Academy. I have arranged everything. You will attend school tomorrow. Also, your house was destroyed in the battle with the spies. I will have someone take you to your new home later. Do you have any requests?"

Hearing the Third Hokage's words, Wu Liang was also taken aback. The Third Hokage had already arranged everything for him. What else could he say? Wait, perhaps he could make some requests.

"Since I am from the Senju Clan, then you can give me the Senju Clan's Chakra Refinement technique and the Second Hokage's Water Release, right?" Wu Liang asked.

The Third Hokage was slightly stunned. "I can give you the Senju Clan's Chakra Refinement technique, but not my teacher's Water Release. At the very least, I cannot give it to you before confirming whether you possess water-nature Chakra."

"Alright." Wu Liang shook his head. He had not held much hope anyway. Getting the Senju Clan's Chakra Refinement technique was already good enough. If he had not asked for it himself, he definitely would not have received it. Most likely, he would only have gotten the Ninja Academy's standard Chakra Refinement technique.

"If there is nothing else, you may leave for now. The Anbu will take you to your new home. It is a little small, but it should be enough for you to live in. After all, there are not many empty houses in Konoha right now." After the Third Hokage finished speaking, the cat-faced Anbu who had brought him there instantly appeared before Wu Liang and gestured for him to follow.
