I didn't even get a chance to speak.
"Don't worry, kid. You will be safe."
The 5th Hokage, or better say Tsunade Senju, said while gently stroking my hair.
I can't even remember how long it had been since someone had touched me in a caring way.
"I will take care of you, until you recover. You will be all right."
Her smile was so warm, it melted my heart.
She is truly a beautiful woman.
But before I could think anything, I was already carried away.
I was in the arms of a man, and he was running with me in his arms.
I can't see anything, but I can hear the wind, the birds, the trees, the sound of water, and the voices of the people around me.
'Oh my god, is this real?'
'Am I really in the "Naruto" universe? Am I going to live in the "Naruto" world?'
I had read many fanfictions where a character ends up in the Naruto universe, and then, they starts their journey to become the next Hokage or the strongest shinobi, but never did I think that it would actually happen to me.
'I can't wait to meet Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, Kakashi, Hinata, Shikamaru, and everyone else.'
'But how will I get strong? Do I have any special abilities? I can't see anything clearly. Can I even walk?'
I had so many questions.
But right now, all I can do is wait.
'I am not sure if this is a dream or reality, but if it is reality, then this is a chance. A chance for a new beginning. A chance to live a happy and peaceful life.'
But I hope this isn't any kind of fanfiction where the Author is writing me and some readers are laughing at my misery.
I will die of embarrassment if it is.
'Okay, enough joking.'
There is no way that an author could make a real person from the real world into his fanfiction character, right?
Unless the world I came from is also a fanfiction.
Hmmm....
'I don't want to think about it anymore. Let's just enjoy this.'
'Oh, but, will the "Naruto" world have an internet connection? What about TV, radio, and electricity?'
'Wait, what am I thinking? Of course, the "Naruto" world doesn't have an internet connection, TV, or radio. How stupid am I?'
'Well, whatever. Let's not think too much. For now, I will just enjoy this. Let's forget everything and start a new life. Yes, that's a good idea.'
'A new life, huh?'
Let's just...
"Hey kid, you seem to be in trouble. Here let me help you sleep." The man who was carrying me said, and suddenly, my mind started getting cloudy.
'DID HE USE GENjutsu on...'
And just like that, darkness took over me.
....
I slowly opened my eyes.
And the first thing I saw after opening my eyes was the wooden ceiling.
My vision had cleared up and unlike before everything around me was vivid.
I was in a room.
The walls and floor were made of wood, and the windows were covered with cloth.
'Ah, the ceiling. This must be the medical room.'
I was lying in a bed.
My body was still stiff, and it was a little painful, but not as bad as before.
I turned my head to the left, and I saw another bed, and a girl was sleeping on it.
'Oh, I am not alone. Didn't the hospitals in Naruto have one bed in the rooms?'
The girl had short purple hair, and her skin was so pale, it was almost white.
'Who is she? I have never seen her before. She doesn't look like anyone from the original series. Is she a new character?'
But why does she look familiar?
Where have I seen her before?
Was she in the 'Naruto' live-action movie?'
I was staring at her for a while, and suddenly, she opened her eyes.
But other than that, there was no movement in her body.
'Did she just wake up, or she has been awake all this time?'
She was just staring at the ceiling without even blinking her eyes.
'Creepy.'
"Uhh..." She let out a weak moan.
She looked like a ghost.
Should I say something?
Kwachak!
But before I could think about it, a nurse walked into the room.
"Oh, you're awake!" She said, and smiled at me.
Although the girl with purple hair was closer to the door, the nurse didn't even look at her and walked straight to me.
"How are you feeling?"
"I am...fine, I guess."
'Actually, my body feels a little stiff, but it doesn't hurt that much.'
"That is good to hear. More than half of your bones were broken so Lady Tsunade worked very hard to heal you."
"Lady Tsunade...healed me?"
"Yes. She used her Mystical Palm Technique on you, and now, all your wounds have healed. Although, you might still feel some pain, but that will disappear soon."
'Mystical Palm Technique, huh?'
So, the legendary Tsunade Senju not only saved me, but she also healed me.
"Where are we right now? I can't remember what happened."
"We are in the Leaf Village Hospital. Lady Tsunade found you unconscious in the forest. She brought you here and treated you."
"The forest, huh?"
"Yes. But don't worry, everything will be fine now."
'I didn't know what happened before, but now, I think I remember.
Tsunade and Shizune were walking through the forest when they saw me.
Tsunade must have thought that I was attacked and injured by a beast, and then, she brought me to the hospital.
Yeah, that makes sense. And I was unconscious during the whole time, so that's why I didn't know anything.'
"And, who is she?"
I asked, looking at the purple-haired girl.
"Oh, her?" The nurse's face changed.
Her smile which she had while talking to me, disappeared.
"She is...not important."
'What does that supposed to mean? Was the girl also brought by Tsunade? And, why does the nurse have a grim look on her face?'
But before I could ask her, the nurse smiled again.
"Anyway, I will get the dinner for you. You must be hungry."
She said, and then walked out of the room.
I looked back at the purple-haired girl, and she was still staring at the ceiling, but this time, her mouth was open.
She didn't look alive, yet she didn't look dead either.
'What is wrong with her? Does she have an illness or something?'
Man, now I wish I could have a system, just like the MC of the Solo Leveling Novel.
Hmm...
No, wait.
Not like Solo Leveling, I need a system like the main character of 'Marrying 10 SSS Class Blind Wives in the Divine Apocalypse' novel.
With that system, I could analyze her situation and find out her illness.
But of course, that was just wishful thinking.
Ha... But I still wish I had a system.
Just then, Ding!
'Huh?'
I heard a strange sound in my mind.
And, it was the exact sound I have read many times in web novels.
'Did the sound just come from inside my mind?'
The moment of the awakening of the system has finally come.
'Please, be the System from the Novel, I beg you.'
Ding!
[You have awakened an Advance Skill 'Not A Byakugan'.]
[Skill: Not A Byakugan (Legendary) - You can see through everything without losing the colors and with extra analysis details. Even if it means you are looking through a woman's clothes.]
.
.
.
.
.
'It is true. It's a system.'
My own, unique system.
But wait.
'Advance Skill? Not A Byakugan? What the hell does it mean?'
Is it an ability that's not the Byakugan, but at the same time is related to the Byakugan?
'This system is also not the same as the one from that novel, but this is still better than nothing.'
And...
...I didn't even get a cool name like "The Godly System" or "System of The Absolute Evil".
It's just a nameless system.
Ding!
As I was thinking, I suddenly heard another ding.
'There's more?'
[You have awakened another Advance Skill 'Monster Evolutionary Wives'.]
'Huh...'
'...'
Wait!
What?!
