During the Third Great War, people only remembered the Konoha Mortician who swore to protect the bodies of his companions.
Kakashi: "He is a righteous ninja. He lets the deceased rest in their hometown."
Fourth Raikage: "He is a ninja worthy of respect. His actions in defending the bodies of his companions deserve our admiration."
Uchiha Madara: "He is a thief! A thief!"
Maruyama Kifu: "... I am only a Konoha Body Collector."
Chapter 1 Where is Your Old Man Buried?
Maruyama Kifu opened his eyes.
The rain fell outside during the night. The room was damp and cold while the candle flames flickered. Several corpses with different appearances lay on the cold tables.
'Where am I?'
Confused memories flooded into his mind. He quickly understood from these memories that he had transmigrated.
This was the chaotic, bloody, and cold world of Naruto.
In this current era.
War, turmoil, and slaughter were common occurrences. The intertwining of blood and tears became the dessert after a meal.
He was a ninja. He was an unremarkable Genin in Konoha.
However, he also had another job. He was a Konoha Body Collector.
What was a Konoha Body Collector?
As the name suggested, while other ninjas fought hard for the village on the battlefield, people like him were responsible for collecting the bodies.
In the world of ninjas, a corpse contained various Ninjutsu and Bloodline Limits. It also contained information within the brain. Some of this information included the secrets of the village.
Every side had their own mortician teams during the war. He was a member of one.
During times of peace, his job involved collecting bodies and taking care of them. This included simple cosmetic work and grooming the appearance of the deceased.
Regardless of the world, the dead were important. People believed in being buried in peace with an intact body.
Families, clans, husbands, and wives could only take their loved ones home for burial after the village issued a martyr order.
His previous self was an orphan. His parents died in the war. He had mediocre talent and only managed to become a Genin. He took this job to maintain his livelihood.
The room he was currently in was undoubtedly a morgue.
He looked around. A chill ran down his spine.
Staying with so many dead people made him feel terrified.
Suddenly, he saw a faint white light rising from a corpse in front of him. A Kunai was stuck in its heart.
'Is this... a soul?'
He did not dare to get close because of his respect for the dead. He stood in place and hesitated.
There was no doubt that souls existed in the ninja world. Lord Orochimaru, the great scientist, had personally proven this fact through his research.
However, knowing it was one thing. Accepting it was another.
Abruptly, a virtual blue transparent box appeared in front of Maruyama Kifu. It did not block his vision, but it attracted his attention.
`[White Corpse. Success rate: 90%. Loot body? (Current 3/3, Daily 9/9)]`
A `[Yes/No]` interface then popped up.
"Ngh?" (What is this?)
Maruyama Kifu stared at the modern virtual box. He ignored the reason for its appearance. He felt slightly excited.
'Do I have a cheat?'
He was worried about his future in this violent world. However, the appearance of the System gave him the possibility of self-preservation.
Maruyama Kifu looked at the corpse lying quietly in front of him. He suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.
'Familiarity?'
"Stop!" (Do not let my thoughts wander!)
This absurd thought appeared, but he shook his head to suppress it. He needed to stop his mind from wandering to avoid terrifying things from happening.
He turned around and looked at the entire morgue.
He could see light spots flickering on almost every corpse. Some light spots were white, some were green, and some were yellow.
He walked to a corpse with a green light.
The face was pale. Bloodstains covered the green flak jacket. A familiar red and white fan symbol was on the shoulder.
'Uchiha?'
Maruyama Kifu felt surprised.
The Uchiha and Hyuga clans usually handled their own dead. They did this to prevent their bloodlines from leaking.
The village allowed this practice.
However, there was an exception. This happened if the person did not awaken the Bloodline Limit of the Uchiha clan. It was the Sharingan. People often called it "Pink-eye." It dominated the entire Naruto plot and led to the nickname "The Legend of Eye Fighting."
`[Green Corpse. Success rate: 60%. Loot body? (Current 3/3, Daily 9/9)]`
'White, Green... what will Yellow be?'
The colors represented the level of the corpse. It was likely related to the strength, abilities, and Bloodline Limits of the deceased.
He walked to the only corpse in the morgue with a yellow light.
'Miura?'
Coincidentally, he knew the original owner of this corpse.
The man was an old Jonin of Konoha. He had experienced many battles with the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen. He had also served as a member of the Hokage Guard Platoon.
