...
A mechanical system prompt echoed across the entire Blue Star (Earth). At the same moment, the moon in the sky transformed into a massive, crimson eyeball. People all over the world stopped and stared upward.
The moon released a vast wave of light, illuminating the globe as if it were daylight. The light penetrated all matter—no matter where one hid, they could not escape it. Any living being touched by the light had their eyes display ripple patterns resembling the Rinnegan. They gradually lost consciousness and became unable to move. Finally, they fell into the illusory world constructed by the system.
The moonlight lasted only a short time, yet it pierced the entire surface of Blue Star, affecting 99.99% of the population. All of them became candidates, randomly pulled into the Naruto world!
...
Moments later, the ritual ended. Everyone regained consciousness.
Chu Tianyou's eyes snapped open. With a carp-like leap, he shot upright in bed.
"Naruto? Isn't that one of the three legendary migrant-worker manga/anime that swept the globe? It actually descended into reality."
Chu Tianyou immediately grabbed his phone and began searching for information. He checked forums, groups, and official government sites related to Naruto. All of them had crashed instantly, showing only "99" errors.
He randomly opened a surviving post and read the discussion:
[Did you guys hear the system voice?]
[It wasn't just you—the entire world heard it… I wonder which faction our country will get: Konoha or Sunagakure?]
[No matter the camp, first stop is Konoha to grab a Sharingan.]
[Even if you get one, it's useless without Hashirama's cells. Unless you're Madara with Eternal Mangekyō, you'll either run out of chakra or go blind. Total waste.]
[I'm not worried about lacking chakra. I'm the man destined to become Might Guy—Eight Gates, Death Gate open, one kick to the finale!]
The Naruto forums were exploding with activity.
The Descent System finished cooldown and released a new announcement:
[Faction random assignment complete.]
Participating nations (those with at least one "Kage-level" powerhouse):
Neon Country → Identity (Fire Country, Konoha ninja) Eagle Corner Country → Identity (Wind Country, Sunagakure ninja) Bear Country → Identity (Lightning Country, Kumogakure ninja) Camel Country → Identity (Earth Country, Iwagakure ninja) Ah-San Country → Identity (Water Country, Kirigakure ninja) Neutral nation: Land of Iron (not yet open) … (Other nations randomly received identities from 25 minor countries.)
The only villain faction: Dragon Country → Identity (Canon villains and rogue ninjas from various villages, e.g., Akatsuki, Seven Ninja Swordsmen, etc.)
The announcement detonated Dragon Country's internet. "Holy hell, rogue ninja faction?! The moment we spawn we're hunted by everyone—this system wants us dead!" "Is the system just bad at balancing?" "Why do Neon Country players get the protagonist start as Konoha ninjas while all Dragon Country players are rogue ninjas?" "Rigged! Total black curtain!"
It was understandable—nobody wants to play the villain when they could be the hero. Though many villains in Naruto are Kage-level or stronger, the timeline is set just before the First Shinobi World War. At this point, Akatsuki doesn't even exist yet—most of its future members haven't been born!
Players familiar with the plot would surely eliminate Dragon Country players before they could grow strong. On top of player hostility, canon villages hunt rogue ninjas relentlessly—kill on sight, no mercy. This setup placed Dragon Country directly opposite every other faction…
Detecting dissatisfaction from over 1.4 billion people, the Descent System quickly adjusted and issued an update:
[Due to faction imbalance, every Dragon Country player will randomly receive one special talent.] [Strength ranges from F-rank to SSS-rank.]
[Unrestricted by the original world's rules.]
This blatant buff finally calmed Dragon Country citizens a little. But it sparked fierce protests from other nations: "Why give Dragon Country cheats just because they have more people?" "This destroys fairness!" "As the world's second-most populous nation, Ah-San Country demands countermeasures and the removal of special talents for Dragon players, or we refuse to participate."
The system scanned the complaints but refused to compromise. Instead, it unleashed heavenly punishment. Crimson laser beams rained from the sky, instantly piercing the tens of thousands of loudest keyboard warriors.
The system's dominance was clear. After forcibly silencing the radicals, the world quieted down and accepted the rules in silence.
[Game start.]
[All player actions will be livestreamed to the public.]
[Each round lasts until the end of 2–4 Shinobi World Wars, or until global player count drops to 10 (early termination).]
[Upon conclusion, rewards will be distributed to nations based on surviving player ratio.] [Players for this round have been selected. Transmigration and reincarnation commencing—role, time, and location randomized.]
As the system finished speaking, beams of white light began appearing worldwide. The light enveloped selected players, reincarnating and descending them into the Naruto world.
Chu Tianyou was one of the chosen Dragon Country players!
He felt his surroundings vanish. When he opened his eyes again, it was night. He was dashing through a dense forest. Along with him came a flood of memories.
[Chu Tianyou / Uchiha Tasuke – An ordinary member of the Uchiha clan who fled Konoha due to differing ideals, becoming a rogue ninja.]
[Currently hunted by both the Senju and Uchiha clans—life in extreme danger.]
[Randomly obtained SSS-rank unique talent: Immortality!]
[Immortality auxiliary skill: Can absorb target's life force, chakra, and attributes.]
