Transmigrating to Sunagakure

Transmigrating to Sunagakure

My name was Yunqing. I was a Transmigrator, and right now, I was panicking.

The reason I was panicking was not because I had transmigrated.

As everyone knew, transmigration was commonplace in the Qidian Transmigration Club.

What made me panic was that I had transmigrated to the dangerous world of Naruto. Even more panic-inducing was that I had become part of Sunagakure. What terrified me most was that I was about to become the Third Kazekage.

I thought it was ridiculous, but there was nothing I could do. After all, I was the Second Kazekage's disciple, and I had saved the Second Kazekage's life.

Ridiculous as it was, I really did not want to become the Third Kazekage.

"Yunqing, did you hear what I said? What do you think of everyone's proposal?"

Looking at Yunqing, who sat in the seat of honor while constantly spacing out, Chiyo felt that her life was far too difficult.

At such a critical moment for Sunagakure's survival, the man about to inherit the title of Kazekage was actually daydreaming.

Should she choose someone else instead? That Suke seemed pretty good.

Yunqing jolted and hurriedly sat up straight. Looking at the wounded people seated around the Round Table, he did his best to compose himself and hoped everyone would be lenient with him.

"Elder Chiyo, I think I'm still young. Besides, isn't Lord Sāmon, the Second Kazekage, still alive?"

Yunqing hurriedly explained.

What a joke. Become the Third Kazekage? He had not lived long enough yet. Why would he seek death?

What time was this? The Second Ninja World War, an era where Konoha stood head and shoulders above everyone else. Taking office now would be like hanging himself on his birthday—asking for an early death.

"Sigh, Yunqing, we understand. Having you temporarily take the position puts too much pressure on you."

Chiyo slowly sat down and spoke as calmly as possible.

"But we have no other choice. Sāmon is severely injured and still unconscious. The only ones who can inherit the position are you and Suke. In terms of military accomplishments and contributions to Sunagakure, only you are suitable."

Chiyo had no choice either. Her strength was sufficient, but her status was a problem. Sunagakure lacked talent right now, while her son was not strong enough and had recently been busy having children.

In the end, they could only hand it over to Yunqing, who had just come of age.

Yunqing opened his mouth, but what else could he say?

Wasn't that all nonsense? He knew he was the most suitable candidate. He possessed all the power of Irene Belserion, the Dragon Queen from Fairy Tail, as well as the Lottery System. He had used advanced knowledge to transform Sunagakure. Otherwise, would they have dared to go to war?

Thinking carefully, he had been in this world for more than ten years. From his initial confusion, to being picked up by Sāmon, to awakening the Lottery System, gaining power, and growing stronger—Sunagakure had shown him such kindness that he should not back down.

Yunqing's hesitation brought smiles to Chiyo, Ebizo, and Sunagakure's other leaders. They had been afraid that Yunqing would refuse.

They knew Yunqing's strength well. He had single-handedly defeated over a thousand ninja and led the severely injured Sāmon back from the front lines.

If Yunqing truly refused, there was nothing they could do.

"Fine. I'll agree to inherit the position of Third Kazekage. However, Granny Chiyo and all the elders must obey my command completely from now on. Otherwise, I would rather not become the Third Kazekage."

Yunqing raised his head and spoke solemnly.

He truly had feelings for Sunagakure.

There was not much scheming here. Sunagakure was poor, and all anyone wanted was to live a better life.

"No problem. Don't worry. From now on, we'll all listen to you. Then make your preparations. In three days, we'll hold your succession ceremony."

Hearing Yunqing's answer, everyone present smiled even more happily.

They were also glad to have a powerful leader.

They would be even happier if Sāmon could be saved.

"Granny Chiyo, Lord Ebizo, I'll be relying on the two of you from now on."

Yunqing bowed to everyone present, then turned and left.

He had things of his own to do. No matter what, since he had accepted the position of Sunagakure's Third Kazekage, he had to take responsibility.

Just as Yunqing returned to the entrance of his home, he saw a young man radiating killing intent from head to toe standing there.

"Hey, Suke. How is it? Are there any major problems at the front lines?"

Yunqing smiled at the young man, who was a few years older than himself.

Yunqing had some guesses about Suke. He might be the Third Kazekage from the original story.

It was not because Yunqing was some kind of genius. It was simply too easy to guess. In all of Sunagakure, there were only two young people with Kage-level strength: himself and Suke. He was an outsider; without him, Suke would have been forced into the position.

"Not good. Just as you predicted, the gap between us and Konoha is too great. We can barely hold the situation together. Lord Bunpuku is stationed there now."

Suke shook his head and answered with an ugly expression.

He had thought he was strong enough. With the "ninjutsu" Yunqing had prepared for him, he should at least have been able to stop Konoha. Who would have thought that, in the end, they could only barely withstand the pressure?

Yunqing did not have much of a reaction to Suke's words. He had expected it long ago.

Sunagakure was fighting on two fronts to begin with, and their forces could only be considered barely sufficient.

Most importantly, during this period and the period to come, it was more or less Konoha's one-man show.

In Yunqing's opinion, there was no reason to join the chaos in this era. What they should have done was build high walls, stockpile grain, and bide their time before claiming the throne.

Instead of rushing in headfirst.

It was simply too foolish.

Thinking about the situation Sunagakure was facing, Yunqing fell into thought.

Facing the thoughtful Yunqing, Suke hesitated for a moment but did not disturb him.

"I've already agreed to inherit the position of Third Kazekage. I'll end this war as soon as possible. Go back to the front lines now and pull all those child soldiers back, especially Granny Chiyo's son and his family."

Thinking of the red-haired brat in the village, Yunqing gritted his teeth.

"Understood."

Because he recognized Yunqing's strength, Suke, the original Third Kazekage, did not hesitate in the slightest.

"Also, discuss things with Bunpuku more often. He sees things more broadly, and he can help you."

Yunqing gave him one final reminder.

After spending more than ten years in Sunagakure, Yunqing felt that the most correct thing he had done was helping Bunpuku change his fate.

He had also made him a perfect Jinchuriki, raising Sunagakure's strength to another level.

"Granny, since you're here, come out."

As soon as Suke left, Yunqing spoke softly toward the empty living room.

"Haha, kid, you're still as sharp as ever. Or perhaps your strength is still just as frightening."

Chiyo and Ebizo emerged from the shadows, and Ebizo laughed heartily.

Chiyo glared at Ebizo. Though she was not yet old, she looked at Yunqing with a grim expression and said,

"Will Konoha really not be a problem? That Konoha White Fang and Hiruzen's three disciples are all difficult to deal with."

"It's fine. Suke's strength is reliable, and Bunpuku's presence will not be a problem either."

Yunqing had great confidence in Suke and Bunpuku.

"What about Iwagakure?"

Ebizo asked.

"There's nothing we can do. We can only hope those clan heads perform well. I believe in them. We don't need to attack; holding them back should not be a problem."

Yunqing was helpless this time.

Sunagakure's strength was right there. There were only so many people in total. Suke and Bunpuku were responsible for Konoha, while he and Sāmon were responsible for Iwagakure.

He was strong, but Iwagakure had two Tailed Beasts, two users of Kekkei Tōta, and two or three times as many ninja as they did.

Otherwise, Sāmon would not have been severely injured and near death, still undergoing treatment even now.

Thinking about Konoha's lineup, Yunqing felt that this was hell difficulty.

The Third Hokage, Shimura Danzō, and several of their teammates were all in their prime. Most importantly, they were united and had no ulterior motives.

The middle and younger generation had the White Fang and the Sannin holding things up. Although none of the four had reached their peak, they were still terrifying enough, not to mention a group of Backbone members proficient in all kinds of secret techniques and Kekkei Genkai.

Even more viciously, there was a group of old monsters who had survived from the Sengoku era. Both the Uchiha and Senju were still around, and Konoha also had the formidable Mito Uzumaki.

"With that lineup, forget fighting two opponents at once. Even if we threw all our strength into fighting Konoha, we'd definitely lose."

Yunqing grumbled inwardly.

"You two came here because there's something you need, right?"

After venting, Yunqing asked the two of them.

Chiyo and Ebizo exchanged a look, both seeing the helplessness in the other's eyes. Chiyo shook her head, took out two scrolls from her robes, handed them to Yunqing, and motioned for him to read them himself.

Their attitude gave Yunqing a very bad feeling. Could something else have gone wrong at a time like this?

Taking the scrolls, Yunqing quickly read through them.

The further he read, the uglier his expression became. In the end, Yunqing was so enraged that Chakra and magic power surged throughout his body.

"Qing, calm down. You need to calm down."

Chiyo and Ebizo stared at the immense Chakra and almost tangible red power around Yunqing in terror.

The two of them were quite strong. Put simply, with the Ten Puppets, Chiyo was undeniably Kage-level, while Ebizo was also a Quasi-Kage.

The Chakra and magic power Yunqing leaked in his fury made their entire bodies tremble, as though death could descend at any moment.

"Sorry. I got carried away."

Yunqing forced a smile and gave them an apologetic look.

"It's fine. What do you plan to do about this?"

Ebizo struggled to pull out a smile, though his heart was churning wildly.

"Too terrifying. This strength has already surpassed Lord First Kazekage's, hasn't it?"

The contents of the first scroll were simple. The Daimyo's Mansion was deeply dissatisfied with Sāmon's defeat and had decided to further reduce its support in supplies and money.

The second scroll contained Sunagakure's intelligence. The nobles in Daimyo City were publicly condemning Sunagakure's incompetence while secretly selling military supplies to Iwagakure and Konoha.

"What should we do? Handle it cold. Since they can do something like that, so can we. Tell our ninja stationed at the borders to stop fighting, withdraw and station farther back, and temporarily cease hostilities with the other side."

Yunqing sneered.

How stupid. Their own troops were fighting and dying at the front. It would have been one thing if those people merely cursed them from behind, but they were even cutting supplies and selling military materials.

If the Daimyo had not turned a blind eye to it, Yunqing would twist his own head off.

"But the Daimyo's side...?"

Chiyo asked hesitantly.

"Sister, at a time like this, we can barely protect ourselves. Why should we care about them? Let's listen to Qing."

Ebizo hurriedly persuaded her.

He strongly agreed with Yunqing. Since they dared to do it, they had to bear the consequences.

"Fine."

With a sigh, Chiyo said nothing more.
