Exploding Luck, Rasengan at the Start

Naruto was just about to click the draw button.

System was already impatient to set Naruto on the path of righteousness.

[Detected that the host's corruption may be influenced by the name of the Demon Fox]

[New mission has appeared]

[To prevent the host from becoming a delinquent jinchuriki like Gaara who never takes naps and stays up late]

[Please handle your relationship with the Nine-Tails properly, try to communicate with the Tailed Beast, and form an unbreakable bond!]

[As a jinchuriki, you must have a good relationship with your Tailed Beast; politeness is a must]

[Mission success will grant 10 Goodwill Points]

[Mission failure will grant 100 Penalty Points]

"Get along with the Nine-Tails?"

Naruto nodded.

"Right, right, right, just watch me show it some manners!"

He felt the seal on his abdomen.

Naruto had already appeared outside a wooden gate with gaps wide enough for a horse to run through.

The ground was covered in water.

His footsteps created ripples.

Deep in the darkness.

The Nine-Tails slowly cast its gaze over, exhaling with disdain.

Just a brat from the Uzumaki clan, daring to stand before the strongest Tailed Beast—truly ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth!

"Nine-Tails!"

The Nine-Tails remained unmoved, flicking its tail.

A hurricane struck.

It blew so hard that Naruto nearly lost his footing.

"Stinky fox!"

Hiss!

The Nine-Tails stood up in a flash.

It stared at Naruto as if its fur had been electrified.

Back in the day, among the nine Tailed Beasts, only that dead raccoon, the One-Tail Shukaku, dared to bark like that!

Ha!

The Nine-Tails flew into a rage, and a wild wind whipped up.

Its blood-red eyes looked down at Naruto outside the gate.

"Remember this!"

"You are a Tailed Beast, and I am the jinchuriki. I know you don't want to be trapped."

Naruto gripped the bars, staring back at the Nine-Tails without a hint of fear.

I have to say!

Even though there is such a thing as megalophobia.

A super-giant kitty or fox right in front of you is still as cute as ever!

The Nine-Tails stared at Naruto.

It thought this brat must want to say that he didn't want to be a jinchuriki either, and didn't want to be called a demon fox by others.

For so many years.

The Nine-Tails had only one view on the relationship between Tailed Beasts and jinchuriki.

Tragedy.

Power, hatred, coercion—every single one was helpless.

"So what if you don't like it?"

"I like it!"

"As long as I'm a monk, I'll ring the bell; as long as I'm a jinchuriki, you give me chakra!"

Naruto grabbed the bars with both hands and pressed his face against them.

From the Nine-Tails' perspective, he looked like a pathetic penguin looking up.

Clearly asking for something, yet so righteous about it!

Hmph!

The Nine-Tails flicked its tail and turned its back directly.

Even the Yellow Flash wouldn't dare speak to me like that!

Who the hell are you, kid?

You little blond brat!

"You can keep throwing your little temper tantrum; after all, little animals are bound to act spoiled a bit."

"Especially a cute-type fox like you. If you grow that many tails and don't act cute, wouldn't they be a waste?"

Naruto turned and waved his hand.

Damn it!

What does "cute-type" mean?

And what is "acting cute"!

Calling me temperamental and spoiled!

The strongest Tailed Beast is a "little animal"!

The Nine-Tails bristled on the spot.

It bared its fangs and looked back.

Naruto was already gone.

Damn it!

The Nine-Tails spun around in anger several times, finally resting its head on its own tail to feel a bit more at ease.

It couldn't wrap its head around it no matter how much it thought.

Did this son of Uzumaki Kushina suddenly start acting like his mother?

That shouldn't be right.

Over the years, it had watched this child be ostracized by the people step by step, turning from the son of a hero into a demon fox.

He had been guided step by step by the Third Hokage.

He had somehow completely missed out on the excellent genes of Minato Namikaze and Uzumaki Kushina.

How could he change overnight?

The Nine-Tails blinked, unable to stop observing Naruto.

He did seem a bit different.

He often talked to himself.

Even his walk had become three parts more arrogant!

Leaving the hot springs.

Naruto strode home with a swagger that showed no regard for his own kin.

The Nine-Tails watched the entire process, its confusion and bewilderment suddenly deepening.

[Ding!]

[Detected that the host's relationship with the Nine-Tails has improved; Nine-Tails favorability increased by 15%.]

[Task completed, received 10 Goodwill Points as a reward.]

"Huh?"

Naruto was stunned.

He had almost forgotten that the Nine-Tails was a total tsundere!

Damn it!

Naruto nearly ground his molars to dust.

He returned home and flopped onto the bed.

What else could he do?

Draw a prize, of course!

[Sensing the host's daily good deeds and harmony with the fox, achievement unlocked: Good Person of Konoha, reward received: 10 Goodwill Points.]

[Continue to perform good deeds and accumulate virtue, and this system will also bestow blessings upon the host.]

"I don't need blessings, I just want task rewards!"

Naruto was truly defeated.

If he became the greatest good person in the ninja world, the Turn Back to the Shore System wouldn't have any more tasks!

If there were no tasks, how could he draw prizes!

The moment Naruto thought about his mundane life ahead—becoming Hokage, marrying the Hyuga princess, and defeating the Otsutsuki—he couldn't help but feel melancholy!

"Doesn't seem half bad."

Naruto rested his hands behind his head and crossed his legs.

"System, if you're going to be this useless, just go die. I don't need you anymore."

"I am, by nature, the greatest good person in the history of the ninja world. Do I really need you to guide me?"

"Get lost! Go self-destruct right now!"

Naruto didn't even bother with the draw anymore; he simply lay flat and gave up.

He was already the protagonist with the script of a Child of the Plane.

What did he need a trashy system like this for?

[Ding!]

[Detected the budding of malice in the host's heart; it must be suppressed with benevolent merit.]

[The Turn Back to the Shore System is currently seeking a new benevolent merit task. Please, host, do not give up on yourself.]

"You'd better hurry up!"

"Otherwise, I really won't be able to stop myself from turning dark!"

Naruto's stomach growled fiercely. He opened the refrigerator and slammed it shut just as quickly.

"It's infuriating! Ichiraku Ramen still hasn't started a delivery service!"

"I'll finish the draws first, otherwise, if this useless System dies, I'll still be stuck with the debt."

Naruto had 20 points of Benevolence and 100 points of Punishment, enough for three draws.

"Spin!"

Naruto decided to use two Benevolence draws first.

[Incredible! The host's luck is off the charts. Good people are rewarded!]

[The two Benevolence draws have yielded Earth Style: Headhunter Jutsu and the Hanging-from-a-Tree Basilisk Jutsu.]

[Go practice them quickly!]

"As expected."

"You really are trash! Go die! Doesn't the host have the right to make the System self-destruct directly?"

Naruto knew these two ninjutsu.

One used Earth Style to bury a person until only their head remained—it was basically just for scaring people.

The other involved hanging upside down from a tree; if you were wearing a robe, it would fall down, making it one of the few anime settings that actually bothered to include Newton's laws.

[Detected a sharp increase in the host's malice. This System is accelerating the search for good deeds in Konoha.]

"I'll take anything! I'll learn it all!"

Naruto practiced these few ninjutsu several times.

He ran many laps while hanging upside down from the ceiling.

He took the expired milk from his house, went outside, and used the "Headhunter Jutsu" to bury them all in the dirt, leaving only the tips exposed.

"Meow!"

A white cat discovered the surprise and hurriedly went to find other cats to join in the spectacle.

The world had finally started growing milk!

"Meow! Meow!"

Several cats meowed, saying they absolutely couldn't drink it because they were lactose intolerant!

The cats happily walked out of the bushes, and from then on, they treated the area downstairs from Naruto's house as their gathering spot.

Every day, after eating and drinking their fill, they would just sleep and bask in the sun.

Now, they had one more source of entertainment: watching the milk trees grow.

On the road.

Before heading to the Ichiraku Ramen shop, Naruto casually performed a draw.

[What a pity.]

[On the other hand, the situation with the Punishment points is quite dire.]

[The host only drew a ninjutsu that can only be used for combat: Rasengan.]

"Then just let me die a miserable death!"

Naruto's mood suddenly improved.

"Oh, it's Naruto. How did the Chunin Exams go?"

Uncle Ichiraku was still hiding the fact that he was definitely not a member of the Otsutsuki clan.

"Without me, the ninja world would be as dark as the eternal night!"

Naruto's stomach rumbled.

He raised his hand with heroic spirit.

"Uncle, make it a bit more luxurious today—add an egg!"
