Kushina Uzumaki looked nervous, glancing around as if searching for something.
Uchiha In also watched the protagonist's mother with great interest. If it followed the original story, Kushina Uzumaki would soon shout about wanting to become Hokage, then be ostracized by everyone in the class, and then Minato Namikaze would successfully gain her favor, laying the groundwork for pursuing Kushina Uzumaki later.
Although he knew how things would unfold, Uchiha In still found it very interesting. After all, experiencing it firsthand was much more engaging than just watching an anime.
"My name is Kushina Uzumaki, and my goal is..."
Kushina Uzumaki put on a determined expression and continued to shout the latter half of her sentence.
...My goal is to become Uchiha In's wife."
The entire class fell silent. Uchiha In faintly heard the sound of Minato Namikaze's heart shattering.
Kushina Uzumaki wanted to die!
She had never felt so humiliated. She had just confessed to a boy she didn't even know in front of the entire class.
However, Kushina Uzumaki had no choice. If she didn't do this, she would be forced to kiss Uchiha In. This was the System's punishment.
After the nightmare of the Whirlpool Country's destruction, Kushina Uzumaki arrived in Konoha and lived in Uzumaki Mito's home, where she learned the truth about becoming a Jinchuriki.
When Kushina learned she was to be the Nine-Tailed's vessel, her feeling, as she described it, was that the accompanying sense of loneliness and oppression was almost suffocating her.
Though unwilling, she had no choice but to accept this cruel reality.
And when Kushina was at her most helpless, Mito Grandma gently guided her, and eventually, they were brought here to become the Nine-Tailed's vessel.
But before the Tailed Beast could be housed, they needed to fill it with love first.
It was this very sentence that made Kushina want to let go of her mental burdens and face life with an optimistic attitude, when something calling itself the Strongest Jinchuriki System appeared in Kushina Uzumaki's mind.
As long as she bound it and completed the tasks it issued, she could get rid of her Jinchuriki identity! She could even obtain powerful secret techniques, eternal youth, and an ageless appearance!
Kushina Uzumaki was instantly tempted by the System.
Getting rid of her Jinchuriki identity was something Kushina Uzumaki had always dreamed of!
"I really don't want to be a Jinchuriki!"
After silently apologizing to her Mito Grandma, Kushina Uzumaki bound herself to this Strongest Jinchuriki System without hesitation.
"System binding successful. Unique main quest generating. Generation successful."
"Unique Main Quest: Become Uchiha In's wife."
"Side Quest One, Mandatory: During the new student self-introduction, state your dream, which is Quest One."
"Quest success rewards Whirlpool Clan Sealing Technique proficiency +1."
"Quest failure punishes the host by kissing Uchiha In."
"Host, please complete the side quest as soon as possible to unlock more side quests."
Kushina Uzumaki was completely bewildered, then she snapped back to reality, unable to accept it, her small face turning dark as she said, "Why do I have to do such quests? What do these quests have to do with being a Jinchuriki?"
"No comment. Host, please execute the side quest as soon as possible."
"I won't do it! I don't even know that guy named Uchiha In."
"Host, are you sure you want to abandon the side quest? Yes/No (Note: Abandoning the quest will result in the loss of all abilities, but you have one and only one chance to reconsider.)"
"Abandon it! I don't believe you can make me lose all my abilities!"
Chapter 3: Strongest Jinchuriki System
Just as Kushina Uzumaki's words fell, something terrifying happened to Kushina Uzumaki: she felt all her Chakra disappear, and no matter how she tried to refine it, she couldn't!
Chakra can be said to be the foundation of a Ninja; no matter what type of Ninja, Chakra support is needed.
If one loses Chakra, that person will absolutely not be able to become a Ninja!
Kushina Uzumaki panicked. This feeling of losing Chakra made Kushina Uzumaki extremely frightened.
So, she went back on her word!
Kushina Uzumaki is the type of fiery woman who, despite her anger towards this System, dared not speak out.
As the transfer student time approached, she became increasingly anxious, which is why she had that uneasy and restrained expression just now.
"It's just a confession! How could I, Kushina Uzumaki, be afraid!"
Kushina Uzumaki also went all out, shouting loudly in front of the entire class, "My name is Kushina Uzumaki, and my goal is... to become Uchiha In's wife."
After saying this, Kushina Uzumaki could feel her cheeks burning hot, hot enough to cook an egg.
How embarrassing!
Although Kushina Uzumaki has a fiery personality, she also gets shy.
And she could feel that the entire class was silent, clearly shocked by her words.
But there was no other way; the System's task clearly stated that she had to confess loudly during the new student self-introduction, otherwise the System wouldn't acknowledge it.
But the next moment, Kushina Uzumaki was dumbfounded because Uchiha In's cold voice entered her ears.
"Sorry, I'm not interested in you at all."
In an instant, an even greater sense of humiliation spread through Kushina Uzumaki's heart.
She had forced herself to overcome her shyness and say such humiliating words in front of the entire class, but she didn't expect to be tragically rejected!
The intense humiliation made Kushina Uzumaki furious with embarrassment!
Why did he reject me? Am I not pretty? Do I not fit his aesthetic? Doesn't he know that rejecting me directly will make me lose a lot of face?
Although she thought this, Kushina Uzumaki did not shout it out. Instead, she stomped angrily to Uchiha In's side, sat down, and stared intently at Uchiha In, wishing she could devour Uchiha In whole.
If looks could kill, Uchiha In would probably have been sliced into a thousand pieces by Kushina Uzumaki.
In fact, if Kushina Uzumaki's System had a favorability explanation, Kushina Uzumaki would have discovered that Uchiha In's favorability towards her was not as low as Uchiha In made it seem.
Kushina Uzumaki appeared very few times in the original work, but she was very striking and distinctive.
Her optimism, her positivity, and her fiery, unyielding spirit made people can't help but adore her.
Of course, the current Kushina Uzumaki is just a 7 or 8-year-old loli, and Uchiha In wouldn't be interested in the current Kushina Uzumaki, but it doesn't prevent Uchiha In from having a good impression of Kushina Uzumaki.
So why did Uchiha In coldly reject Kushina Uzumaki?
