Yue had no idea what to do. His thoughts about continuing to argue with Tsunade had been abruptly interrupted.

Looking at the slightly plump Tsunade before him, he thought she was simply the goddess of his dreams. It was a shame he was so small.

"Why can't I be called Shangguan Yue?" Yue asked coolly, putting on his best aloof act.

Tsunade enunciated each word. "My. Fiancé. His name is Shangguan Yue."

"Anyone can be Shangguan Yue, but you can't. You're too young."

Hearing Tsunade's words, he immediately bristled.

"What do you mean, I'm too young? That's right, I'm your fiancé."

Yue ran back to his room, grabbed their marriage contract, and threw it at Tsunade. He was too weak, though, and it landed on her ample chest.

Tsunade didn't seem to mind. She picked it up and looked at it. It really was their marriage contract. She was furious.

"So this is the marriage Grandfather arranged for me?

What was I waiting for all these years?"

Tsunade was at a loss. As she looked at Yue's young face, disgust suddenly appeared in her brown eyes, along with intense revulsion.

Seeing Tsunade act like that, Shangguan Yue understood.

She looks down on me. Heh.

"I've given you the marriage contract. You can do whatever you want with it. Now please leave my house.

You don't want to marry me, and I don't want to marry you either. Sorry, I'm pretty face-blind, and I don't think you're very pretty. You're not what I want."

Yue's cold voice brought Tsunade back to her senses. The expression she'd worn moments ago was gone. She gripped the marriage contract tightly, unsure what to do.

Seeing Tsunade standing motionless, Shangguan Yue could only sigh.

"If you won't leave, then I will."

Yue got up and went into the inner room, then into the bedroom. He shut the door and lay down on the bed.

"I finally got rid of her.

With no woman in your heart, your blade becomes divine.

She doesn't want to bother with me right now. I might as well make sure she remembers me deeply. At least then I still have a chance."

As an orphan, he could clearly sense other people's emotional shifts, especially those directed at him. Maybe he'd simply been sensitive since childhood.

"Chuuni, quick! How do I use my cheat?"

"From now on, just think to yourself, 'I'm a dog,' and you can enter your cheat," Chuunibyou God teased with a giggle.

"Chuuni, are you trying to get me killed? You can just say so. I'll go find a knife right now and make your wish come true."

Shangguan Yue didn't want to entertain Chuunibyou God. He knew that if he did, it would immediately start chattering away like a chatterbox.

"Don't, don't! Bro, you're my own brother. I was wrong. Just calm your mind and you'll be able to see it. Think 'enter' to go in," Chuunibyou God pleaded hurriedly.

"How can you do this? You just flipped the table! How am I supposed to play now? This is too much!" Chuunibyou God shouted angrily again.

Since Balance of God's life was tied to Shangguan Yue's, if Yue died, it would die too. It had no choice but to act like a little brother and beg for mercy.

Yue didn't want to entertain him. He followed its instructions and calmed his mind. Sure enough, he saw a balance floating in the middle of his sea of consciousness.

"Enter."

Yue felt his soul tremble. When he came to again, he found that his consciousness had taken on a physical form, like a real person, and he had entered the base of Balance of God.

Outside, after Shangguan Yue had rejected Tsunade, indignation suddenly rose in her heart.

"I've waited all these years, and now you say you won't marry me? Dream on."

She flashed into Shangguan Yue's room. Seeing him lying on the bed with his eyes tightly shut, she lost herself in thought for a moment.

"This little man is so sensitive."

"Hm?"

Yue happened to be entering Balance of God, and a faintly pained expression appeared on his face. Thinking he was unwell, Tsunade hurried over to examine him.

A green glow emanated from Tsunade's hands. Chakra infused with Medical Ninjutsu entered Yue's body. Before long, a tumultuous shock surged through her.

"How is he even alive?"

Yue had no idea what was happening outside. Since Chuunibyou God saw that Tsunade wasn't hurting him, it didn't alert him.

Yue was now in a cylindrical room with a vast interior. He sat in a chair at the center.

"What do I do now?"

Chuunibyou God began explaining proudly.

"Using the game data on your phone, I spent four years carefully developing—"

"Enough. Get to the point."

"Ahem. Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Hm?" Yue frowned.

"Fine, fine. I'll start explaining. Listen carefully."

"First, you should know that I've only just recovered, and my divine power is limited. This is all I can do for now. After this, we'll have to rely on our own efforts."

Name: Balance of God The space you're in now is located in the base of the balance. This is the control room. Put your hands on the floating orb in front of you.

Yue did as instructed.

One by one, screens suddenly appeared before him, arranged in a circle around him.

"What are these?"

"These screens are the functions of Balance of God. I used the code from the Naruto mobile game to create the main functions. Everything else is just a prototype because there isn't enough energy."

Yue opened each screen and examined it.

Battle Platform (Complete). World Screen, Earth (Gray, Deceased), Naruto, Not Yet Open. Cultivation Zone, Not Yet Open; Social Zone, Not Yet Open; Dungeon Zone, Not Yet Open; after opening, it includes Summoning Beast Dungeons, Equipment Dungeons, and so on. Leisure Zone, Not Yet Open; Chat Zone, Not Yet Open;

"Can I still go back to Earth?" Yue was stunned, feeling apprehensive.

"No. The version of you in this world is already dead, but I recorded its anchor point."

"Phew." He let out a breath. Strangely, he felt calmer.

"So the only thing I can use right now is this Battle Platform!"

"That's right."

"You useless god. I knew I was right to call you useless.

Give me an explanation."

Chuuni wrung his little hands, then finally let them go with a helpless sigh. Right now, Yue held all the cards, and it was at his mercy.

"As the name suggests, the Battle Platform lets you challenge an opponent of your choice.

I modeled it after the Naruto mobile game. For now, the only opponents you can challenge are people from this world. I've sorted them into ranks,

from the lowest: E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, and SSS.

These correspond to this world's ranks: Trainee, Genin, Chunin, Jonin, Kage, Super Kage, Six Paths, and God.

After selecting the Battle Platform, you'll be transported to the left side of the balance. There, you'll choose the opponent you want to challenge. Once you've made your choice,

the balance will transport your opponent to the right side, then scan both of your physical conditions.

Based on how far the balance tilts (overall), it will adjust the proportion of the rewards you receive. To a certain extent, this reflects the difference in your strength.

The weaker you are, the better the reward if you win. The rewards come from everything your opponent possesses."

"All of this was made possible by using the Law of Balance to forcibly draw this world into the system.

If you win, I'll gain this world's energy.

If you lose, I'll lose some of my divine origin."

Chuunibyou God spoke ingratiatingly.

"So, what do you say? Want to work with me? We'll conquer this world, and then the whole thing will be yours. You'll be the one and only god."
