Chapter 1: Descent into the Naruto World
(*Brain Storage Note: The core setting is a Naruto-themed game. Players can cross into the Naruto universe, complete system tasks, and earn rewards, items, and [abilities]. These powers can be used in the real world, creating a dual-world storyline!)
[Ding! System binding successful! The Naruto World Descent begins!]
[Each nation will randomly select 100 players to enter the Naruto universe.]
[Upon reincarnation, players will be grouped by their nation, assigned to specific factions as their starting allegiance.]
[Warning: In the game world, if your character dies, you die for real... Rewards: Powers gained in the game will carry over to the real world upon completion.]
[Time period of traversal: The Battle of the Valley of the End!]
...
A cold, mechanical system announcement echoed across the skies of Earth, followed by the moon transforming into a massive, crimson eye.
People worldwide froze, gazing upward in awe.
The moon unleashed a blinding light, illuminating the entire planet as if it were midday. The radiance pierced through all matter, inescapable no matter where one hid.
Those bathed in the light found their eyes rippling with samsara-like patterns. Gradually, they lost self-awareness, their bodies paralyzed, until they were drawn into a virtual world constructed by the system.
The moonlight's effect was brief but all-encompassing, penetrating Earth's surface and affecting 99.99% of its population.
They became candidates, randomly pulled into the Naruto world!
...
Moments later, the ritual ended.
Consciousness returned to the masses.
Chu Tianyou's eyes snapped open.
With a swift carp-like flip, he bolted upright from his bed.
"Naruto? One of the world's top three iconic anime, beloved globally? It's actually come to life!"
Chu Tianyou grabbed his phone, frantically scrolling for information.
Online, chaos reigned. Every Naruto-related group, forum, and even government websites were flooded with activity, notifications maxed out at 99+.
He opened a random post, and the heated discussions poured in:
[Did anyone else hear the system's voice?] [Not just you—everyone in the world heard it! Wonder which faction our country will get. Konoha? Sunagakure?] [Doesn't matter which faction—I'm heading straight to Konoha to snag a Sharingan!] [Good luck with that. Without Hashirama's cells or Madara's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, you'll burn out your chakra or go blind. Total waste!] [No chakra? No problem. I'm destined to become the next Might Guy. Eight Gates, Death Gate—kick the story to its finale!]
The Naruto forums were ablaze with excitement.
The Descent System, after its cooldown, issued a new announcement:
[Faction assignments completed.]
Participating nations with at least one Kage-level powerhouse are as follows:
Neon Nation: Fire Country, Konoha Village Ninjas Eagle Nation: Wind Country, Sunagakure Ninjas Bear Nation: Lightning Country, Kumogakure Ninjas Camel Nation: Earth Country, Iwagakure Ninjas Third Nation: Water Country, Kirigakure Ninjas Neutral: Iron Country (currently unavailable)
[Other nations: Randomly assigned to 25 minor countries.]
Sole antagonistic faction:
Dragon Country: Original story villains (e.g., Akatsuki, Seven Mists Swordsmen, rogue ninjas)
The announcement sparked an uproar among Dragon Country's citizens.
"What the hell? Rogue ninjas? We're born just to be hunted down?!" "Is the system trying to screw Dragon Country over?" "Why does Neon Nation get the golden start in Konoha while we're stuck as rogue ninjas?" "Rigged! Total conspiracy!"
...
Dragon Country's netizens were understandably furious.
Who'd want to play the villain when they could be the hero?
Sure, some Naruto villains rival Kage-level strength, but the timeline is set before the First Great Ninja War. At this point, the Akatsuki doesn't even exist—most of its members aren't even born yet!
Savvy players familiar with the plot would target Dragon Country's players before they could grow, leaving no room for development.
Worse, in the Naruto world, rogue ninjas face relentless pursuit from every village—hunted to the death without mercy.
This setup pitted Dragon Country against every other faction.
Detecting the outrage from over 1.4 billion people, the Descent System quickly adjusted, issuing an updated announcement:
[Due to faction imbalance, each Dragon Country player will receive a random special talent.] [Talent strength ranges from F to SSS, unbound by the original world's rules.]
...
This blatant "cheat" from the system slightly appeased Dragon Country's players.
However, it sparked fierce protests from other nations.
"Why do Dragon Country players get special talents just because they have a bigger population?" "This is unfair! It ruins the game's balance!" "As the world's second most populous nation, Third Nation demands equal treatment or we'll boycott this game!"
The Descent System, unmoved by the complaints, responded with divine retribution.
Red laser beams shot down from the sky, instantly vaporizing hundreds of thousands of the loudest online critics.
The system's dominance was undeniable.
After silencing the most vocal dissenters, the world quieted, nations falling into reluctant compliance.
[Game Start]
[All player actions will be livestreamed to the public.] [Game duration: Ends after 2–4 Great Ninja Wars or when global player count drops to 10.] [Rewards will be distributed to nations based on the proportion of surviving players.] [Selected players will now be teleported for reincarnation. Roles, times, and locations are random.]
As the system's voice faded, beams of white light enveloped players worldwide, wrapping them in a cocoon for reincarnation into the Naruto world.
Chu Tianyou was one of Dragon Country's chosen players!
His surroundings dissolved, and when he opened his eyes, it was night.
He found himself darting through a dense forest.
A flood of memories surged into his mind: [Chu Tianyou / Uchiha You, an ordinary member of the Uchiha Clan. Due to conflicting beliefs, you fled Konoha, becoming a rogue ninja.] [Currently pursued by both the Senju Clan and the Uchiha Clan, your life hangs by a thread.] [Randomly acquired SSS-tier unique talent: Immortality!] [Immortality's auxiliary skill: Absorb the life force, chakra, and attributes of targets.]
