Starter Pack

After this series of events, it was already night by the time Naruto returned home.

Looking at his filthy, messy home, Naruto decided to tidy it up a little.

He got to work, gathering up all the trash and throwing it into the bin.

Then he put everything in its proper place. That said, Naruto's home had been sparsely furnished to begin with.

The little money the Third Hokage gave him was nowhere near enough to buy any decent furniture, let alone decorations.

After Naruto cleaned up, the house looked fairly neat, but it was too bare.

It was bare enough that a thief would have to leave behind two hundred ryō before leaving.

Feeling a gaze still watching him, Naruto could not help frowning.

Those ANBU really did not rest, even in the middle of the night.

Naruto climbed into bed, pretending to go to sleep, and turned off the lights.

He pretended to fall asleep instantly and began snoring.

The gazes outside seemed to lessen considerably, but they were still there. To be safe, Naruto chose to wait them out. Finally, after more than an hour—

The feeling of being watched finally disappeared. Even the ANBU could not keep watch over Naruto twenty-four hours a day; they needed time to change shifts.

Clearly, this was when Naruto was truly free.

Naruto remained lying on the bed and silently asked in his heart, "System, are you there?"

A lifeless voice rang out in Naruto's mind.

"I'm here, Host!"

Naruto instantly became excited. What happened during the day had not been an illusion after all. He really had awakened the cheat that every transmigrator needed.

Even with only the knowledge in his mind, he could have used his foresight to gradually cultivate himself into the strongest in this world.

But with a cheat, he could take shortcuts and might even obtain many things that would otherwise be difficult to acquire.

"System, introduce yourself," Naruto silently said.

"Answering the Host: this system's full name is the God-Tier Mission System. Its function is very simple. As long as the Host completes missions issued by the system, the Host will receive corresponding rewards. The richness of the rewards is linked to the difficulty of the missions!"

Naruto understood. This system did not have a bunch of flashy functions. He just needed to complete missions. He simply did not know what rewards it offered, though as long as it was not too stingy, he could accept it.

The missions were also issued completely at random, and Naruto would be notified in his mind when one was issued.

This was already an unexpected windfall. Even without the system, Naruto could slowly become stronger.

"Then do you have something like a starter pack?" Naruto continued.

"Answering the Host: yes. Today, after the Host killed a fish, the Host completed the mission to unlock the system, activating the system and obtaining one starter pack. Would you like to open it?"

"Open it!" Of course he wanted to open it. Naruto was dirt poor right now and lacked everything.

"Congratulations to the Host for opening the starter pack.

Obtained three crates of never-expiring nutritious canned food.

Obtained 20,000 ryō.

Obtained God-Tier Chakra Extraction.

Obtained the passive ability, Heavenly Mouth.

Naruto naturally understood the money, but he needed to inspect the other items carefully.

"Nutritious Canned Food: Produced by the system. Contains abundant nutrients and is suitable for people suffering from malnutrition or physical weakness. It can improve one's physique, keeps one from getting hungry easily after consumption, and tastes delicious."

"God-Tier Chakra Extraction: Produced by the system. A chakra extraction technique improved by the system. It possesses the highest possible chakra extraction efficiency and places zero strain on the body. Suitable for users of all ages."

"Heavenly Mouth: Produced by the system. After obtaining Heavenly Mouth, the probability of persuading others increases slightly, and one's persuasiveness will also increase imperceptibly. As the Host uses it, its effects will continue to improve."

Naruto was genuinely amused now.

The system was truly too considerate. It knew he lacked food, so it sent him some. Nutritious canned food was exactly what he needed right now.

It could also improve his physique, and it sounded filling and delicious from the description.

And since canned food was such a common food, Naruto could eat it at home without arousing the ANBU outside's suspicions. Its concealment value was maxed out!

As for God-Tier Chakra Extraction, it was also something Naruto currently needed.

The major clans taught their children chakra extraction techniques as soon as they entered the Ninja Academy.

Although the academy also taught chakra extraction techniques, those were the lowest-grade techniques circulating on the market. Their extraction efficiency was low, and excessive use could easily harm one's spiritual energy.

Chakra was produced by combining spiritual energy and physical energy.

The reason the major clans taught their children chakra extraction techniques after they entered the Ninja Academy—

Was because children at that stage had begun developing physically and could already try extracting chakra.

Moreover, the chakra extraction techniques of the major clans had been improved over generations by their ancestors, so they were not as harmful to the body.

They would not affect the children's growth.

Naruto's God-Tier Chakra Extraction was even more powerful. It ignored the user's age, could be used from a very young age, caused no damage to the body or mind, and was the most efficient as well.

With it, Naruto could gradually develop his own strength.

Although Naruto possessed the bloodline of the Uzumaki Clan, his father was Minato Namikaze, a mere civilian, so the Uzumaki Clan bloodline within him was not very pure.

He had also heard before that Minato Namikaze's genes were actually very strong. They had somehow suppressed Kushina of the Uzumaki Clan, leaving Naruto with blond hair.

As for that, Naruto felt that Kishimoto probably just thought blond hair looked better. After all, Kishimoto was just a lousy manga artist. What did he know about Naruto?

So chakra was still very important to him, and Naruto was in no hurry to seek out the Nine-Tails.

After all, he was not yet ready to meet a tailed beast. With the Nine-Tails inside him, he would definitely remain safe for the next few years.

As for Heavenly Mouth, Naruto immediately laughed.

Wasn't this already his passive ability? How had it become a reward and been given to him again?

In the original story, Naruto's mouth was practically a cheat. Whenever he encountered an enemy, he would try to persuade them. If negotiations failed, he would use Rasengan for some physical persuasion. Once they had been beaten into submission, they would also be successfully talked into submission.

His little mouth was as overpowered as a cheat.

It was late at night, but God-Tier Chakra Extraction had one advantage: as long as he closed his eyes, he could use it.

So in the future, he could pretend to be asleep while actually extracting chakra.

On his first night in the world of Naruto, Naruto decided not to grind just yet. Since things had come to this, he should sleep first.

One day would not make a difference. Good night, everyone!
