The Ninja Academy year had three terms: the first began on April 1 and ended in mid-July, the second began in early September and ended in late December, and the third began in early January and ended in late March.
Konoha Year 54, April 1.
The Ninja Academy welcomed the first term of a new school year once again.
The Sixth-Grade Students had completed graduation at the end of March. Some had become official Genin, some had returned to repeat the year, some had been specially recruited by certain departments, and others had dropped out and given up being ninja.
The students in the other grades officially advanced to higher grades today.
The vacant first-grade classrooms were also about to welcome the new students who had passed the entrance examination.
Izayoi was one of them.
Unlike the other new students, who were sent off by their parents or older siblings, Izayoi was one of the few who had come alone.
Likewise, unlike the new students who looked enviously at the classmates accompanied by their families, Izayoi's gaze held no envy or jealousy. It held only scrutiny.
He was not scrutinizing their appearance, but something only Izayoi could see.
Ninja Aptitude (White)
Chakra Control (Green)
Chunin Aptitude (Green)
Whenever Izayoi stared at them with intense focus, bubbles would appear around their bodies.
Some of the bubbles were the same color, while others were different. Inside them were words in colors matching the bubbles.
Of course, some people had no bubbles at all.
Either they had no talents, or their talents had not even reached the lowest rank. Talents related to some Lifestyle Occupations, for example, were outside the system's scope.
This was Izayoi's cheat.
Izayoi had no surname, only a given name.
According to the orphanage director, he had been given this name because he was born on the night of June 16.
After living in the Orphanage until he was three, learning to read, speak, and a few basic survival skills, Izayoi was sent home by the director. She then took him to the cemetery to meet his parents in death.
It turned out that he had been born into a ninja family, and both of his parents had been orphans without surnames.
His Father had been a Chunin of the village, but unfortunately, his entire squad, including their Guidance Jonin, had died during a mission.
His mother had died in childbirth. With only one breath left, she had not entrusted Izayoi to her husband or any of her friends. Instead, she had asked the doctor to entrust him to the Orphanage.
The Orphanage was backed by the village, so they would not covet Izayoi's family assets.
And that was indeed the case.
Izayoi was not surprised that he had to learn to live independently from the age of three.
After learning what kind of world he had transmigrated into, Izayoi knew that, apart from him, the Child of Destiny of this world had also lived alone from the age of three.
That person was even more impressive. At three years old, he had dared to take a walk alone through a deserted snowy night.
The Naruto World, also known as "Five Villages Melee: The Legend of the Eyes" and "Black Zetsu's Quest for Mother."
After arriving in this world, which was entirely about the Otsutsuki Clan's family feud and absolutely upheld bloodline supremacy, Izayoi did not panic.
Nor did he despair over being an orphan without a surname or a Kekkei Genkai.
Because... he had a cheat too!
The Talent Perks System was the cheat that Izayoi had activated when he turned one.
Apart from seeing the bubbles on other people, Izayoi could also see a Light Screen in his mind. Only he could see it, and once summoned, even a mirror could not reflect it.
The Light Screen displayed Izayoi's personal information, as well as the Newbie Gift Pack.
However, Izayoi had used the Newbie Gift Pack when he was three.
His personal information now was completely different—extremely luxurious.
As Izayoi walked into the Ninja Academy, he summoned the Light Screen in his mind.
Host: Izayoi Talent Perks: Otsutsuki Bloodline (Red), Super Kage Aptitude (Gold), Bloodline Limit (Purple), All-Attribute Constitution (Purple), Medical Genius (Blue), Chakra Control (Blue) Points: 25
While other people had only one or two bubbles, or even none at all,
Izayoi had an astonishing six Talent Perks.
However, when he first obtained the Talent Perks System, he had only one Talent Perk—Chunin Aptitude (Green).
But when he was three, Izayoi had defied fate and changed his destiny. From then on, he became the strongest Talent Monster of this era.
In terms of talent, there was no one in this era stronger than him—only those as strong as him.
The ranks of Talent Perks were: White, Green, Blue, Purple, Gold, and Red.
This was not a ranking provided by the Talent Perks System, but one Izayoi had figured out himself.
He was certain that ranks existed above Red.
As for what colors they were, Izayoi did not know yet.
The Talent Perks System's function was to let its host acquire other people's Talent Perks.
The methods of acquisition also had to be discovered through experimentation. For now, he knew of two.
The first was defeating an opponent. In an equal contest, there was a high chance of obtaining a low-level perk and a very small chance of obtaining a high-level perk.
When a lower-ranked opponent defeated a higher-ranked one, there was a very high chance of obtaining a high-level perk and a one-hundred-percent chance of obtaining a low-level perk.
In an overwhelming victory, there was a very small chance of obtaining either a low- or high-level perk.
The second method was the Newbie Gift Pack from the Talent Perks System, which was given for free once. Izayoi could use it to copy one of another person's Talent Perks.
After learning that he had transmigrated into the Naruto World, which he had been deeply obsessed with during his student days, and that he had been born on June 16, Konoha Year 48, making him the same age as the Konoha 11, Izayoi had almost immediately prepared to use the Newbie Gift Pack on Naruto Uzumaki.
After all, he was the protagonist of both this world and this era.
The reincarnation of Asura Chakra, the son of the Sage, the inheritor of the Sage Body passed down from Hagoromo Otsutsuki, the possessor of the Uzumaki Bloodline that had never been activated in the original story, and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki...
Naruto Uzumaki had two nuclear power plants inside him. Even if he could not pronounce "Chakra" correctly, and even if he did not know how to extract Chakra, the Seal and bloodline within him would cause his Chakra to increase constantly.
As long as Naruto possessed a perk related to Asura or a Sage Body perk, Izayoi only needed to copy it to immediately gain immense potential.
Aside from Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha was also an excellent choice.
He was likewise the reincarnation of the son of the Sage and had inherited the Sage Eye from Hagoromo Otsutsuki.
However, just as Izayoi was searching for them, he brushed past a member of the Hyuga Clan on the street, and a sudden inspiration made him temporarily abandon that idea.
In the Ninja World of this era, the strongest Talent Monsters were indeed Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha.
After all, like Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, they were both reincarnations of the son of the Sage. They possessed not only Super Kage Aptitude, but also the protection of the Sage of Six Paths.
Once they realized their potential, they were destined to become Super Kage Level powerhouses.
Once they received the Sage of Six Paths' inheritance, they would even break through the limits that Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha had never reached and become Six Paths Level powerhouses.
On Earth, no one in this era had greater potential than them.
But... what about beyond Earth?
