Konoha, Year 1.
On the Hokage Rock, Xia You gazed at the [Konohagakure] being constructed below, lost in thought.
There was no doubt about it, he had indeed transmigrated!
And he hadn't transmigrated into an ordinary world of Naruto, but a spacetime matrix composed of seven parallel Naruto worlds.
Each Naruto world was like a normal spacetime, only differing in their temporal nodes.
The main quest issued by the system was: [Within each spacetime, select one faction and help it unify the ninja world, ensuring it does not split for twenty years after unification.]
Upon completing the main quest, the host would [become an immortal on the spot, eternally deathless.]
Good news: He had a system, and the rewards seemed generous.
Bad news: The system's main quest was not easy to complete.
This was the world of Naruto!
A high-level martial world where [Chibaku Tensei] and [Tailed Beast Bombs] could flatten the landscape at any moment!
Just a few minutes ago, he was an ordinary, model modern student. How could he possibly unify the Naruto world?
And he had to choose a faction to complete the unification, and then maintain it for twenty years!
Not to mention, there were a total of seven Naruto worlds.
Even if Xia You was familiar with the entire history of Naruto, this difficulty level was plus·max.
Fortunately, the system also provided some assistance:
First: He could freely travel between any spacetime, with ten travel opportunities per day and no limit on stay duration.
Second: Upon binding to a faction, he would receive a beginner's gift package.
Third: For each world unified, he would receive a system reward and unlock new system abilities.
Xia You pondered secretly. With these system aids, it might not be impossible to try.
After all, the system's ultimate reward was truly tempting: [Become an immortal on the spot, eternally deathless.] He had to give it his all!
"I should check the beginner's gift package first!"
Xia You mentally selected the [Konohagakure] on the system panel and claimed the 'Beginner's Gift Package'.
Why choose Konoha?
Naturally, to reduce the difficulty.
Although Xia You didn't particularly like Konoha, to be precise, he disliked certain people in Konoha.
But looking at the entire history of the ninja world, in any era, Konoha possessed top-tier comprehensive strength, making it the optimal choice for unifying the ninja world.
Not to mention that it had produced two generations of reincarnations of Asura and Indra.
How could other ninja villages and factions compete with Konoha?
Xia You saw no reason to choose the easy mode and then pick a hell mode; he wasn't a masochist. His primary goal was to complete the main quest.
[Ding--Beginner's Gift Package has been opened.]
[Congratulations, you have obtained a pair of (Rinnegan)! (Automatically replaced)]
[Congratulations, you have obtained the ninja tool (Qiankun Cloth Bag)!]
[Congratulations, you have obtained three (Modern Item Redemption Vouchers)!]
Xia You was overjoyed. He quickly took out his phone and looked at his eyes in the reflection.
A pair of rippling [Rinnegan] had replaced his original eyes. His dynamic vision ability instantly amplified dozens of times, allowing him to clearly count the compound eyes of flies flying in the distance.
It took Xia You a while to barely suppress and adapt to the terrifying dynamic vision brought by his new eyes.
Besides this, Xia You discovered he couldn't use the other abilities of the [Rinnegan].
The reason was that he had no chakra within his body and didn't know how to refine chakra.
Even though he couldn't wield the power of the [Rinnegan] at the moment.
Just these eyes alone were enough to intimidate and persuade many people.
Otherwise, as a pure ordinary person, even approaching ninja legends like Hashirama Senju would be extremely dangerous.
Very good.
The system was quite effective, and this beginner's gift package was excellent.
"Let's go. First, let's go meet the [God of Shinobi] of this era, Hashirama Senju."
Xia You stood up and looked towards the location of the [Hokage Building].
Logically speaking.
This era was actually the best time to complete the unification of the ninja world.
The major ninja villages had just been founded, and Konoha possessed an almost absolute crushing strength.
Just Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha alone were enough to sweep across the entire ninja world.
'Susanoo and the Great Buddha, two people destroy four nations' wasn't just a joke.
But precisely because of this, the difficulty also lay with Hashirama and Madara.
The more powerful a person is, the firmer their heart and will tend to be. Convincing them to change their beliefs and paths wouldn't be a simple matter!
Not everyone was as easily persuaded by Talk no Jutsu as Nagato.
With the slightest misstep, after negotiations broke down, one might find themselves fighting Susanoo and the Great Buddha alone.
[Time: First Hokage Era Date: Year 1 of Konoha Unification Progress: 30%]
Outside the Hokage Building, Hashirama Senju, just off work, excitedly pushed open the door. Tobirama Senju's shout immediately came from inside:
"Big Brother, where are you going?"
"Uh..."
"Don't tell me you're going gambling again? Don't forget your current status, and all the official duties waiting for you!"
"No, no..."
"Could it be you're going to see Madara?"
"Tobirama, how did you know?"
"Hmph! Only when you go to see that guy do you get this happy!" Tobirama said with a cold snort, crossing his arms in dissatisfaction.
"Hahaha, Madara invited me to meet at the Uchiha clan's Naka Shrine. He probably has something important to discuss," Hashirama said with a sheepish grin, scratching his head.
"Naka Shrine? Madara's been getting more and more reclusive lately. I wonder what he's plotting now. Big Brother, you need to be careful! Don't let him fool you again!"
Tobirama knew he couldn't stop his big brother from going to see his old flame, so he could only nag incessantly.
Fortunately, Big Brother had already taken office as the First Hokage. Madara probably wouldn't be able to stir up too much trouble.
"Okay, okay, okay!"
"I'm leaving now. Please tell Mito I won't be back tonight..."
Tobirama's face darkened, utterly speechless: "..."
And just as Hashirama turned around.
He saw a figure appear out of thin air across the corridor!
It wasn't the Flying Thunder God Technique; it was even more covert, even more sudden! It happened without any warning, without any chakra fluctuations.
It even made Hashirama freeze.
The person had short hair, wore a white t-shirt, and their style of dress was completely out of place in the ninja world.
Most importantly, their pair of deep, serene eyes rippled, looking exactly like the Rinnegan, rumored to represent the highest form of dojutsu!
Hashirama instantly tensed his body, but still asked in a friendly, easygoing manner:
"Who are you?"
"First Hokage Hashirama Senju, do you have time to chat?" Xia You asked.
He hadn't misjudged. Hashirama was the type of person with immense personal power, but who was very restrained in using force.
Otherwise, the subsequent Five Kage Summit wouldn't have seen him bowing to others; the other four Kage would have been bowing to him.
This kind of person was the easiest to approach for the first time.
If it were Madara, encountering such an unknown and dangerous existence, he would most likely activate Susanoo instantly and attack first.
Only those who could withstand a blow from Susanoo would be qualified to negotiate with him.
"Big Brother? What's wrong?"
Tobirama flashed over instantly. Upon seeing Xia You, he was greatly alarmed and immediately drew his samurai sword.
"Who are you?"
"Tobirama, stand down!"
"Big Brother!"
Hashirama roared, exuding an overwhelming presence: "Clear out the room. I want to have a chat with this gentleman. You can stand guard outside!"
Tobirama pouted in agreement, not daring to defy his serious older brother.
