Crossing into the Naruto World, Inheriting a System

Konohagakure.

The edge of the Uchiha Clan Compound.

Six-year-old Uchiha Tunan knelt by the doorway, gazing at the setting sun.

His clothes were in disarray, covered in dust, and there were even shoe prints on his back.

Uchiha Tunan was a transmigrator, having been here for three months.

The original soul might have been devoured, or perhaps it had gone to the Pure Land.

His awakened golden finger was called the Legacy Inheritance System.

As long as someone who acknowledged him died, he could inherit all of their abilities.

There were many ways to be acknowledged: through strength, emotion, ideals, and so on...

But since his transmigration, the system had only indicated that Uchiha Tunan's parents met the criteria.

Uchiha Tunan's parents were both members of the Konoha Military Police Force, and they had good talent, both having awakened the Two-Tomoe Sharingan.

As for Uchiha Tunan himself, under his parents' tutelage, he had already begun learning to refine chakra.

However, Uchiha Tunan's talent was too poor. At this rate, his highest achievement in life would likely only be Chunin.

Whether he could awaken the Sharingan depended on chance.

"Don't blame me, I can't help it,"

Uchiha Tunan muttered, then lowered his head, putting on a dejected and disappointed expression, waiting for his parents to come home.

After a while.

Uchiha Tunan's parents, Uchiha Genbo and Uchiha Nanako, returned from outside.

As soon as they reached the doorway, they saw the marks of a beating on Uchiha Tunan.

Uchiha Nanako looked at Uchiha Tunan with a pained expression, but the Uchiha clan had always been ruled by men, especially when it came to the education of the next generation.

Uchiha Nanako could only stand by quietly, waiting for Uchiha Genbo to speak.

Uchiha Genbo frowned slightly and said coldly, "Were you bullied by classmates?"

Uchiha Tunan nodded sullenly.

Uchiha Genbo's tone was stern, "Then train harder and fight back. There are no weaklings in the Uchiha clan."

He then walked straight past Uchiha Tunan and entered the house.

Uchiha Nanako wanted to reach out and pick up her son, but Uchiha Genbo's angry shout came from inside.

"Leave him be."

Uchiha Nanako hesitated for a moment, then withdrew her arm and went to the kitchen to cook.

Uchiha Genbo entered the house and poured himself a cup of sake.

"That Kakashi is too detestable," Uchiha Tunan's whimpering voice came from outside the door.

Uchiha Genbo paused upon hearing this, lifted his wine cup, and took a small sip. His tone softened slightly.

"Kakashi? Lord White Fang's son. It's normal that you can't beat him.

Precisely because of this, you must strive to catch up to him.

By the way, why did you get into a fight?"

Uchiha Tunan stood up, nodded sullenly, then wiped his tears with his hand, looking aggrieved.

"Today, I said that Father and Mother are members of the Military Police, the pride of the village.

Unexpectedly, that Kakashi said in front of me that you are cowards who don't dare to go to the battlefield and only dare to hide in the village and bully civilians.

All the strong Uchiha clan members have gone to the front lines; only losers choose to stay behind.

I couldn't hold back..."

"Crack!" Uchiha Genbo crushed the wine cup in his hand, his desire to drink completely gone.

He gave Uchiha Tunan a deep look, then slowly stood up and walked towards the bedroom.

"Eat your meal later, then go to the courtyard to practice your Throwing Technique."

Uchiha Tunan, his face streaked with tears, nodded.

After dinner, Uchiha Tunan took a kunai and went to the courtyard, practicing his Throwing Technique at a target hanging on the tree trunk.

Hmm.

He didn't hit it once.

In the bedroom, Uchiha Genbo and Uchiha Nanako knelt opposite each other, the atmosphere slightly heavy.

"Have you truly decided? The battlefield is very dangerous."

"I've always felt Tunan's talent was poor and his disposition insufficient, disgracing the Uchiha clan.

I never expected that I, as a father, would be seen as a waste by others."

Tomorrow I'll report to the elders and head to the front lines to fight.

As a father, I must set an example. I want Tunan to know that his father is neither a coward nor useless."

"I'll go with you."

"You should stay home and take care of Tunan."

"No, as a member of the Uchiha clan, he should also learn to be independent."

At this moment, Uchiha Tunan was throwing kunai while glancing at the house, thinking to himself.

I'm sorry, but it's hard for me to take the first step if you don't die.

Doesn't the Will of Fire emphasize sacrifice? Then consider sacrificing your lives for me.

Although I'm not your child, I'll sleep with several genetically superior female ninjas in the future to pass on this body's bloodline.

Go down and keep your children company sooner. Dying at the hands of the enemy is better than dying at the hands of your clan later.

This is a bit wicked. I've only been transmigrated for a few months, taken someone else's body, and now I'm sending their parents to their deaths. How have I become more and more like a ninja?

He then threw a kunai in an elegant parabolic arc, which landed heavily.

Missed.

In the bedroom, Uchiha Genbo heard the continuous sound of kunai dropping outside, strengthening his resolve to go to the battlefield.

The next day, at the Ninja Academy.

Today marked the end of the semester, and the students were to take their midterm exams.

The exams were scheduled for the afternoon.

The morning was reserved for Lord Hokage to lecture on the Will of Fire.

All the students at the Ninja Academy gathered on the training grounds.

Hiruzen Sarutobi stood on the podium, surveying the students below.

He then cleared his throat and began his speech...

After speaking for only a couple of sentences, Hiruzen Sarutobi sensed something was amiss.

Most of the students below were looking at him with adoration.

However, one first-year student's eyes held a deep sense of confusion.

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned and recalled the content of his speech, finding no errors.

Perhaps this child's comprehension was too poor to understand.

He then dismissed the thought and continued his lecture.

When he reached the halfway point, Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly noticed that the confusion in the student's eyes had vanished, replaced by an expression of sudden realization.

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded slightly in his heart. Good, it seems this kid is listening very attentively.

His voice grew even more passionate.

By the end of the speech, Uchiha Tunan had adopted an expression of admiration, no different from the others.

But Hiruzen Sarutobi knew that Uchiha Tunan's admiration was different from everyone else's.

The others admired his status, while Uchiha Tunan was genuinely convinced by the principles he had explained.

Thinking this, Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded with satisfaction.

If this kid can grow, he could be a useful tool.

The speech concluded, and Hiruzen Sarutobi departed amidst the students' cheers. Before leaving, he cast a meaningful glance at Uchiha Tunan.

At that single glance, Uchiha Tunan trembled with excitement.

At noon, Uchiha Tunan returned home.

As expected, the house was empty, with only a table of food and a note left behind.

The handwriting on the note looked quite neat.

It was clearly written by Uchiha Nanako.

The gist of it was that they had already departed for the battlefield and hoped Uchiha Tunan would take care of himself.

Study hard, train hard, and strive to become a powerful ninja in the future.

There was enough money left in the bedroom, but they still hoped Uchiha Tunan wouldn't spend extravagantly.

Many other precautions were mentioned.

Only the last line revealed Uchiha Genbo's tone.

There are no cowards, nor are there any weaklings in the Uchiha clan.

After reading it, Uchiha Tunan sighed and put the note away.

Have a safe trip, and please don't come back alive.
