Impossible, Absolutely Impossible! (Newbie author, new book, please support!)

Konoha Year 41, March 18th.

"Crap, crap, crap..."

Uchiha Obito sprinted toward the Ninja Academy wearing his goggles, but by the time he arrived, the teacher had already taken down the entrance ceremony banner, and the students who had participated were already scattering.

He was late!

Missing the entrance ceremony meant that even if he passed the assessment, he wouldn't be able to enter the Ninja Academy and would have to wait another year.

Uchiha Obito couldn't help but deflate.

Kakashi, who was walking past him with a scarf wrapped around his neck and enrollment papers tucked under his arm, suddenly stopped and glanced back slightly: "To be late even for such an important occasion—someone like that has no qualifications to enter the school. It's over for you!"

As he said this, Kakashi spread his hands.

Uchiha Obito turned his head, gritting his teeth at the sight of the snide Kakashi: This bastard, he's so infuriating.

Just then, an angelic voice rang out.

"It's okay, I'll take care of this for you!"

Uchiha Obito turned to see Nohara Rin, her face wearing a gentle smile as she held a set of documents in her hands.

In that moment, the girl's smile etched itself deep into his heart. A flush appeared on Uchiha Obito's face as he pressed his palms together and grinned: "Thanks for the help! I owe you one, thank you so much!"

Nohara Rin smiled and said: "You don't have to be so polite."

Up ahead, Kakashi glanced back, curled his lip, and walked away with his hands in his pockets.

Not far away, under a tree by the roadside, Shita Genichi took in this classic scene, feeling as if he were witnessing history.

His surname was Shita, his given name Genichi.

In reality, for three generations back, his family had only had given names, no surnames.

Of course, the surname Shita wasn't something Genichi had chosen for himself, but his father.

Because he was held in high hopes, and to commemorate the spot where he had confessed his love to his wife under a tree, he had used Shita as his son's surname.

That was very typical of these parts.

However, although his old man claimed it was a decision made after long consideration, Genichi knew for a fact that his father had only come up with this surname on the very day he passed the Ninja Academy exam.

Turning to stroll toward home, Shita Genichi focused his attention on the mysterious, brilliant purple orb of light within his mind.

He had seen it this morning after his past-life wisdom awakened and he gained the memories of his previous life.

A standard golden finger for a transmigrator; it was only natural.

He had been too busy with the entrance ceremony to find the time to study it until now.

Can I cash in on the future ahead of time?

Shita Genichi captured the information within the purple orb.

Pre-drawing future achievements? Like drawing a salary advance?

No, it should be called an overdraft, right?

Wait, that's not right either—it doesn't seem like I have to pay it back.

Shita Genichi pondered secretly: Still, this golden finger isn't very intuitive. It would be better if it were simpler.

As he thought this, the purple orb suddenly shifted, spreading out to form a System Panel.

The panel was incredibly concise, featuring only two options.

[Overdraft of Future Decade] [Overdraft of Future Century]

Furthermore, of these two options, only [Overdraft of Future Decade] was flickering with purple light; the latter was grayed out.

Good, good, good—now that's got some style!

Shita Genichi felt a secret thrill, and a thought immediately arose: It would be even better if there were an explanation.

The next moment, a line of notes appeared on the panel.

[The future that can be overdrafted (cashed in) includes achievements in ninjutsu and other fields, as well as experience, but does not include memories.]

It doesn't include memories... that's fine. While I don't remember much of the plot, since a transmigrator like me has appeared, many so-called plot points will change anyway.

However, the intelligence on many people and events won't change. Even if I don't get future memories, it doesn't matter.

The key is ninjutsu, and... experience!

Shita Genichi felt a surge of secret excitement.

To be honest, when his past-life wisdom awakened and he learned he had transmigrated into the world of Hokage, Shita Genichi had been anxious.

The world of Hokage was truly not a place where a normal person could survive, especially a hellhole like Konoha.

Although it was favored by fate, it was also fraught with danger.

Furthermore, becoming a ninja was inherently an extremely dangerous path; even setting aside the routine missions, the various Great Ninja Wars were all massive catastrophes.

Of course, he could choose not to be a ninja.

But compared to being an ordinary person, powerless in the face of disaster, Shita Genichi preferred to choose to become a ninja and give it a shot!

"With a cheat, I'm a hacker too!"

Filled with anticipation, Shita Genichi quickened his pace.

When he returned home, his mom and dad were busy.

The family ran a Dango Shop; the storefront was on the ground floor, and the second floor was their home.

"Dad, Mom, I'm back! The entrance ceremony went smoothly!"

Shita Genichi waved the documents in his hand and then scurried upstairs.

Genichi's father watched his son head upstairs with a smile, his heart finally at ease. "Our family finally has another ninja!"

Genichi's mother, however, looked slightly worried. "Being a ninja is very dangerous."

Genichi's father laughed. "Don't worry, the Great Ninja War is already over. Once Genichi graduates and takes on some simple missions, he'll be very safe."

Although he had high hopes for his son, those hopes only extended to him becoming a ninja.

A Genin would be enough.

If he could become a Chunin, that would be a huge surprise.

As for a Jonin... he didn't dare to think about it, he didn't dare to think about it, he absolutely didn't dare to think about it!

There hadn't been a single Jonin in their family for three generations.

Returning to his bedroom, Shita Genichi immediately lay down on his bed, closed his eyes, and focused his attention on the Overdraft Panel.

"Ten years of training results, training experience, even combat experience, mission experience, all kinds of knowledge..."

"I'll be 15 in ten years. As a transmigrator, not to mention Kage, Super Kage, or Six Paths level, being a Jonin shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"Come on, my next ten years, show yourself!"

Shita Genichi made his choice and overdrafted the next ten years.

In an instant, the panel turned into a purple ball of light, erupting with radiance that illuminated every cell in Shita Genichi's body.

At this moment, Shita Genichi's mind went blank, while his body felt as if it were being electrocuted; every inch of muscle and every cell was trembling.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but when Shita Genichi's consciousness returned, he felt as if he had just had a six-year-long dream.

Wait, why six years?

Shita Genichi opened his eyes. "Does this mean... I'm going to die in six years?"

"Also, why is there only Water Colliding Wave as a Water Release ninjutsu, besides the Three Body Technique and the basic Body Flicker Technique?"

"Is this really something a Jonin should have?"

He stood up abruptly, his face turning green.

Does this mean that in ten years, I'll only be a Genin?

Or perhaps I'll even die in six years?

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Even if this body has mediocre talent, how could I, someone who knows the plot, be this pathetic?

If nothing else, the Sexy Technique, Harem Technique, and even the Rasengan shouldn't be a problem, right?

Shita Genichi found it completely unacceptable.

Just then, new notes appeared on the panel that had already recovered in his mind.

[The future is not set in stone.]

[The present determines the future.]
