A Person in the Shinobi World, Reincarnating at the Start

Late at night, the clear water surface was broken.

A pebble cut through the silence, flying towards the center of the lake.

Nanchuan You looked up at the pond in front of him, his eyes unfocused.

Judging by his appearance, he was probably only about six or seven years old.

At this age, in his previous life, he would have just been a child.

But the situation was different now.

In this world, due to different physiological factors and the existence of extraordinary power like Chakra, even children who looked very young were capable of becoming killing machines.

Of course, even so, six or seven years old was indeed still too young.

Nanchuan You raised his head and looked into the distance.

Memories surged in his mind, causing his eyes to occasionally show a look of confusion.

"Konoha... Ninja... So it's this world."

He touched his head, feeling a bit of a headache at the moment.

To be honest, he had already been in this world for a few years after transmigrating.

It was just that before this, perhaps due to physical development or other reasons, his memories had not fully resurfaced. He only had a vague sense of familiarity with everything around him.

Only now did he seem to awaken, as if waking up from a dream.

He realized what world and environment he was currently in.

"Konoha..."

He got up silently, looked into the distance, and watched the bright light not far away. Various emotions flickered in his eyes: "This is a world of ninja."

For Nanchuan You, changing worlds wasn't a bad thing.

After all, in his previous life, his life hadn't been particularly smooth, and the people he cared about were long gone.

Being able to change to a new place and a new world at this moment was a good experience for him.

To be able to truly transmigrate, if people from his previous world knew about it, who knew how many would scramble to come here.

Nanchuan You didn't have too many thoughts.

For now, his thoughts were simple: accept what fate brings.

After all, no matter what, life had to go on.

However, at this moment, there was a problem before him.

The Third Shinobi World War seemed not far off.

Within Konohagakure, Konoha's White Fang was still alive, but he was currently suffering from rumors.

During a mission, he chose to abandon the mission to save his comrades, which ultimately led to his predicament.

Rumors and gossip were rampant in the village, and even Nanchuan You, a new student at the Ninja Academy, had heard about it.

So, in other words, the time of White Fang's suicide was not far away.

And in Nanchuan You's memory, it seemed that not long after White Fang's suicide, the Third Shinobi World War began.

In other words, war was about to break out.

"Shinobi World War..."

Nanchuan You pondered in his heart.

He knew that once war broke out, many people would inevitably die.

What were merely background stories in the past were now events in reality that could determine the lives of countless people.

What could he do then?

Gazing into the distance, he felt lost.

His current identity was neither high nor low; he was just an ordinary student at the Ninja Academy, not even a Genin.

This identity, while it might seem like a safe haven to avoid risks under normal circumstances, would be a death sentence during wartime.

After all, at that time, no one would care if you were a student. As long as you had some combat ability and were stronger than ordinary people, you would be dragged onto the battlefield without any room for hesitation.

Therefore, in other words, his time of peace was not far from ending.

He had to do something.

Nanchuan You raised his head, looked at the scenery around him, and this thought flashed through his mind.

And as his thoughts arose.

A brand new change began to appear.

The world before his eyes seemed to change, the real scenery was stripped away, leaving only a pure black and white image.

"This is..."

He was a little lost in thought as he watched the scene, taking an unconscious step back.

BOOM!

As if some unknown force in the void began to vibrate, Nanchuan You inexplicably began to understand everything.

He reached out his hand, feeling a brand new essence within him begin to awaken.

It seemed to be something he was born with.

"Could it be..."

A thought sparked in his mind, and he gave it a try.

A completely new screen began to appear.

Name: Nanchuan You.

Reincarnation Count: 1.

Reincarnation Points: 107.

"It actually works."

Various pieces of information appeared in his mind, and joy instantly bloomed on Nanchuan You's face.

To be transmigrated to this world, honestly, he felt immense pressure.

The Ninja World, also known as the Legend of the Eyes, or the history of the Otsutsuki descendants' brawls.

Unlike his previous world, in this one, if you didn't have some alien bloodline or wear special contact lenses, you barely qualified as human.

Before this, Nanchuan You had been wondering what he should do next.

But now, it was fine.

He could just cheat.

A smile spread across his face as he began to examine the panel before him.

"Reincarnation... what happens after that?"

He pondered, "Will it send me to transmigrate again, or reincarnate into someone else?"

Various thoughts flashed through his mind.

With the idea of trying it out, he tentatively clicked.

In an instant, a brand new change appeared.

[Please select your target identity for reincarnation.]

[1. Commoner.]

[2. Samurai.]

[3. Servant.]

"I can choose my identity?"

Nanchuan You was a little surprised.

This panel seemed a bit too flexible.

He looked closely and noticed that besides these three options, there seemed to be an "Add" option.

He hesitated for a moment, then clicked again.

[Consume 100 points to add a target identity?]

To test the function, Nanchuan You chose to confirm.

Then, in an instant, the panel before him changed again.

[1. Commoner.]

[2. Samurai.]

[3. Servant.]

[4. Daimyo.]

The first three options remained unchanged, but a fourth option had now been added.

"Is this like hitting the jackpot?"

Nanchuan You was a little surprised as he looked at the fourth option.

Compared to the first three, this fourth option was undoubtedly much better.

A Daimyo, even the lowest ranking one, was considered nobility. The baseline for this option was far superior to the other three.

After the fourth option appeared, Nanchuan You's points dropped below one hundred.

The "Add" option dimmed, becoming unselectable.

Out of caution, Nanchuan You didn't make a choice here. Instead, he returned to his lodging.

Within the village, he was essentially an orphan.

There's no need to feel like it's cliché.

After all, being an orphan was rare in his previous life, but it's practically commonplace in this world.

With a background of constant warfare, orphans aren't exactly everywhere, but their numbers are certainly not few.

Nanchuan You's parents were both Ninjas who died during the previous Shinobi World War.

Because of this, even though he was an orphan, Nanchuan You still had a place to go and didn't end up on the streets.

Returning to his lodgings, he closed the doors to all the rooms, took a deep breath, and then looked ahead once more.

[Begin Reincarnation?]

Confirm!
