Chapter 1: Novice Mission - Kill a Villager[New author, new book. Please deposit your brain here.][Handsome Guys and Beauties' Photo Area]Konoha Village, Konoha Year 54.[The timeline here is that Naruto was born in Konoha Year 51. There are two versions online: Konoha Year 51 and Konoha Year 48. I'm using Konoha Year 51, based on the Fourth War ending in Konoha Year 68 and Naruto being 17 then.][So, what year do you think Naruto was born in?]"Get out! Demon Fox!"Bang!In a Konoha Village bakery, three-year-old Naruto, wearing filthy clothes, gazed vacantly at the scene before him with his azure eyes. The bakery owner across from him was looking at him with a face full of rage mixed with a trace of fear, as if looking at some filthy plague..."If you dare come to my shop again, see if I don't beat you to death!"An iron tray came flying with a gust of wind. Naruto's pupils constricted slightly. His body's instinct was faster than his thoughts as he stumbled to the side. The iron tray hit the wall behind him with a "clatter."Turning his head, Naruto's eyes looked at the bakery owner without any emotion. Without saying much, he turned and left the bakery."Pah! Truly bad luck!" The bakery owner, Fuyuyuki Kento, walked to the spot where Naruto had just stood with a look of indignation. He took out a disinfectant spray and sprayed the area as if Naruto's presence had brought many uncertain germs.As the evicted Naruto walked a few steps, malice from the surroundings surged like a tide. Some people hurriedly picked up their children and stayed away, some spat at his feet, and some children picked up stones to throw at him.Every gaze was like a poisoned needle, with undisguised fear wrapped in hatred.Not making the slightest effort to hide it, it was as if Naruto's appearance was one giant mistake. Everyone's eyes were fixed on him.Good.Very good.Naruto clenched his fists and walked step by step into the shadows, then disappeared from everyone's sight."That damn demon fox actually dares to come out. Next time, I'll definitely give him a beating!""I really don't know what Hokage-sama is thinking keeping the demon fox here. If it were up to me, I'd just have him executed!""Truly bad luck!"..."Heh... Uzumaki... Naruto, huh?"Naruto hadn't gone far. Instead, he watched the performance of these villagers from the shadows, but those azure eyes had now turned completely cold.Harsh insults continued to pour into Naruto's ears. There seemed to be no restraint whatsoever just because Naruto was only a three-year-old child.After a long time, Naruto stood up again and walked toward his small home.It was a very dilapidated small apartment. He took out a key, held his hand high to insert it into the lock, and then gave it a gentle turn to open the somewhat broken wooden door.Entering and closing the door, the dull sound isolated the malice from the outside world.With a thud, Naruto walked into the kitchen. A growling sound came from his stomach as if reminding this body of its hunger.On the table were milk and instant noodles that hadn't been there when he left this morning. He walked over and picked them up.He sniffed them. A strong, rancid smell hit his nose. As expected, they were expired.Setting these things aside, as Naruto passed the window, he saw the Hokage faces carved into the mountain outside.The four statues were very majestic and carved quite lifelike.But Naruto looked at the fourth face with mockery in his eyes.[Minato Namikaze, so this is the Village you fought so hard to protect. This is the Village you entrusted your own flesh and blood to.]Looking at the expired milk and instant noodles nearby, a cold sneer appeared at the corner of Naruto's mouth.Truly... ridiculous.Growl.The rumbling in his stomach constantly reminded Naruto. He placed his hands on the expired instant noodles and milk. The noodles weren't soaked in water, and the milk wasn't heated.Just like that, gnawing on the dry noodles and drinking the cold milk, Naruto's thoughts drifted elsewhere....[Ding!]A smile appeared on Naruto's lips. This was the sound he had heard in the bakery just after he had transmigrated today.A transmigrator's essential "Gold Finger"? Truly... you Haji-System.Yes, the current Naruto was not the original Uzumaki Naruto, but Lin Ye, a corporate slave who had transmigrated from Blue Star. After experiencing the "blessing" of 996, he was about to watch Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle when he was hit directly by Truck-kun.After Truck-kun hit him, it disappeared on the spot, leaving only Lin Ye's corpse behind. Then, Lin Ye's soul arrived at the scene just now.Having read the entire Naruto manga, he naturally knew Naruto's current situation and what would happen next.Within all this, there was one thing Lin Ye never understood. Even if others had a thousand or ten thousand reasons to turn dark, they all paled in comparison to the so-called "Prince" Uzumaki Naruto.In the entire anime, the one who most deserved to turn dark was actually the protagonist, Uzumaki Naruto himself.However, whether it was because Minato Namikaze's "Little Sun" genes were too strong or for some other reason, Uzumaki Naruto always treated everyone with kindness. Even the villagers who had always bullied him, he saved them time and time again.Is this... logical?Since he had become him, everything would be different.He began to organize the memories he had received, while simultaneously sinking his mind into his brain, touching the system notification from before.[Ding!][Ding! Congratulations on activating the revenge system.][Novice Mission: Kill the bakery owner - Fuyuki Kento][Time Limit: One month!][Starter Pack: Three Basic Jutsu (One-time use)][Mission Reward: Mangekyo Sharingan! Three Basic Jutsu (Mastery)! Random Attribute +1!]"Heh, here it comes."Naruto narrowed his eyes, the malice throughout his body no longer hideable. The experiences of today shrouded him like darkness, leaving only the purest malice.Looking at the prompt in the system, a flash of red crossed Naruto's eyes.Killing an ordinary person within a month without being discovered was obviously an impossible task for a three-year-old child.But... if it were him... it would be different.Naruto clenched his fists, his entire body filled with malice. He had no reason to miss out on this mission's target and rewards.After all, facing the dark side of this Village, what he currently needed most was power.Whether it was Hiruzen Sarutobi, who played the 'nice guy' and'strongest Hokage' on the surface, or Danzo Shimura, who hid in the shadows claiming 'everything is for Konoha,' or even the always-scheming Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado.Besides power, these people's strength was also evident, especially Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura; their strength was beyond doubt.To safely pass the early stages from the hands of these people, the most important thing was not to expose his thoughts.Therefore, completing this novice mission to obtain the Mangekyo Sharingan was the most important thing right now.[System, introduce your functions.]Naruto stuffed the last bit of dry instant noodles into his mouth, swallowed with effort, and then deliberately slowed his movements, even lightening his breathing as he relaxed his body.There must be people from the Anbu, or even the Root, monitoring him. Everything... still requires caution!
