Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: The Task That Cries "Bullshit"

Konoha Year 21, Ninja Academy.

The First Great Ninja War had just ended, yet the cruelty of war seemed to have drifted far from people's minds for a long time.

The entire classroom buzzed with cheerful laughter and playful energy.

In the front row sat a boy completely out of place with the noisy atmosphere around him.

He had black hair, and beneath his messy bangs were deep, dark eyes.

Though still boyish, his striking features hinted at the good looks he would one day grow into.

This boy was none other than our protagonist—Uchiha Kagura, as fate would have it.

Of course, several years ago, Kagura didn't bear this name at all, being merely an ordinary otaku on Earth.

He only remembered that, as a huge fan of ninja lore, he had been playing a mobile game based on the Naruto world that night.

Suddenly, a blinding flash of white light engulfed him before everything went black.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in the body of a three-year-old child.

The scene upon waking remained vivid in his memory.

At that time, his body was soaked, and a group of people surrounded him, shouting something frantically.

After a long daze, he finally understood what had happened from their words.

It turned out the original owner of this three-year-old body had accidentally fallen into the river, but was fortunately discovered and immediately rescued by someone nearby.

Was it really lucky?

Only he knew the truth.

The original owner of this body had likely died during this accident, and he had simply taken over the body through soul transmigration.

Seeing the child who appeared to be in a daze, everyone assumed it was just shock from the accident. They shook their heads and took him home.

In a daze, he followed the adults back home, only learning his current name the next day:

Uchiha Kagura!

Uchiha?

I actually reincarnated into the Naruto world and became part of the Uchiha clan?

Upon realizing this fact, Kagura felt bitterness welling up in his mouth.

Yes, in his previous world, he had always loved the Uchiha.

Those cool Sharingan eyes, those highly stylized settings made them the most popular clan in Naruto.

But having known the Naruto story inside out, he quickly realized that being part of this clan might lead to nothing but tragedy.

Leaving aside the behind-the-scenes big boss Madara Uchiha, just in the not-so-distant future...

There would be a little monster named Itachi Uchiha who would annihilate the entire clan for the sake of so-called justice...

What exactly does "annihilation" mean?

That means my own life will be in danger too—the entire clan is doomed to be wiped out!

Back in the present, Kagura rested his cheek on one hand, staring blankly out the window with a helpless sigh.

Not far away, a few kids were whispering among themselves:

"Hey, that 'monster' from the Uchiha clan is spacing out again."

"Speak softly, do you want to get beaten up by him again?"

"Hmph! What's there to fear? The four or five of us together can't take him down?"

"You said the same thing last time, which got us all beaten up together...

Please stay away from me this time."

"Ahh!"

"Fuku-chan, Kagura-sama looks so cool even when he's daydreaming~"

The whispers from the children beside him naturally reached Kagura's ears.

But right now, he couldn't be bothered to deal with them.

It had been five years since his transmigration.

He trained relentlessly to escape the fate of being slaughtered in the future.

Unconsciously, his strength far surpassed others his age, and gradually he earned the title of "monster" from the Uchiha clan.

As someone who had transmigrated, he naturally had a system too.

However, unlike other novel protagonists, this system gave him no missions or rewards at all.

It simply displayed his abilities numerically.

Every improvement came purely from his own hard training.

Thankfully, this numerical representation allowed him to clearly see the results of each training session.

After five years of practice, his current capabilities at age eight were:

[Eyetechnique: (Single Tomoe Sharingan), Progress 93.5%]

[Taijutsu: (Fourth Gate, Gate of Harm), Progress 86.5%]

[Chakra: (Chunin Level), Progress 32.5%]

Whether it was due to the innate talent of this body or the benefits brought by the internal system,

his cultivation speed was clearly faster than others'.

When Kagura was five, he had already awakened the [Single Tomoe Sharingan].

He deliberately kept it hidden to avoid drawing attention.

After all, according to the Uchiha clan's records, even those who awakened a single tomoe before age ten were considered geniuses.

As for taijutsu, comparing with what he remembered from the Naruto storyline, he should currently surpass Rock Lee's physical abilities at the same age.

Just as he gazed out the window and sighed again, a slightly bossy girl's voice suddenly sounded beside him:

"Hey!

Baka-chan, why are you sighing again?"

Without turning around, he instantly recognized the speaker's voice.

"Leave him alone.

Tsunade, go on a date with me after school!

I found a great bookstore. They have some books we normally can't buy~~~~"

"If you dare bring Tsunade to buy that kind of book, Sarutobi-sensei might actually rip your head off, Jiraiya."

Kagura helplessly turned his head back. As expected, it was Konoha's legendary "Sannin."

Of course, they definitely hadn't yet attained the power matching their "Sannin" title.

In fact, since entering the Ninja Academy at age five, Kagura had shared a class with them for over three years.

Unlike the legendary gambler she would later become, the young Tsunade was still just a brash and spoiled girl back then.

Maybe it was because of her granduncle, Senju Tobirama.

Ever since Kagura entered the academy, she always seemed to have it out for him—a member of the Uchiha clan—and frequently picked fights without any reason.

Kagura didn't want to waste time on a bunch of annoying kids, so he simply ignored Tsunade's provocations at first.

It wasn't aloofness; imagine putting a twenty-plus-year-old soul inside a child's body.

He naturally had zero interest in socializing with these peers of his actual age.

However, due to her unique heritage, Tsunade developed a somewhat arrogant personality.

After some verbal taunts and arguments failed to accomplish anything, she finally took physical action against Kagura.

Naturally, Kagura had no intention of holding back, and gave her a brutal beating!

Tsunade's best friends, Jiraiya and Orochimaru, also got dragged into the fight. But as expected, all three got their asses kicked.

Unexpectedly, this action stirred up quite a hornet's nest. When other boys in the class learned about this incident, they one after another issued challenges to Kagura.

When even the 'Sannin' themselves couldn't win, those little brats obviously stood no chance either.

After nearly every male student in the class had been beaten by Kagura, gradually no one dared challenge him anymore.

So his reputation as a total beast was sealed.

As for the girls in the class, most of them had become obsessed with Kagura because of his looks...

And let's face it—sometimes good looks really do let you get away with anything.

Eventually, only the 'Sannin', led by Tsunade, kept challenging Kagura despite their repeated defeats.

Over time, these few actually developed an unusual friendship.

Seeing Tsunade and the three approaching Kagura to speak with him, nearby classmates began whispering amongst themselves:

"Only Princess Tsunade dares approach that 'monster.'"

"Yeah, but why is Jiraiya so familiar with that 'monster'?"

"Hmph! What do you guys know!

How could you losers ever get someone as hot as Kagura?!"

...

Seeing the three in front of him, Kagura already regretted getting out of bed today.

Actually, the reason for his current troubles was indeed closely related to these three.

It had already been five whole years since his system first assigned him a task.

Just this morning, the system's mission notification had appeared within his mind.

The second he read the mission details, he was sure of one thing—the system was screwing with him:

[Ding!

Please complete the following mission: Kiss one of the Sannin.]
