This book is a "brainless" novel—please leave your brain at the door.
My name is Lex. While I was at home watching anime, I somehow transmigrated into the Naruto World.
To my surprise, I became the son of Uchiha Madara. My father was defeated by the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama, at the Valley of the End after defecting from the Village. My mother, unable to endure the Village's rumors and gossip, died of a broken heart. Just like that, I became an orphan.
My current name is Uchiha Isamu, and I am ten years old. Because I am the son of a rogue ninja, I have not been allowed to enroll in the Academy.
When he was three years old, Senju Tobirama, the Second Hokage, believed that as Uchiha Madara's descendant, he would inevitably become a threat in the future and should be eliminated early. Fortunately, he was stopped by Senju Hashirama. Hashirama believed that all the fault lay with Madara alone and that there was no need to force Madara's sins onto his descendant.
It must be said that Hashirama truly was Madara's best friend. Even after Madara defected, he still protected Madara's child.
Originally, this was a good thing for Isamu, but unfortunately, the good times didn't last. Senju Hashirama, who had returned from the great battle with Madara at the Valley of the End, passed away within two years.
It had originally been agreed that the position of Second Hokage would be held by someone from the Uchiha Clan. However, because of Madara's defection and the lack of anyone in the clan strong enough to rival Senju Tobirama, Tobirama became the Second Hokage of Konoha with the support of the village, relying on his formidable strength and prestige. The Uchiha Clan didn't dare contest it.
At the age of five, when Isamu should have started school, his right to an education was directly stripped away after Senju Tobirama took office as Hokage. Furthermore, Tobirama sent people to monitor him. The Uchiha Clan members also kept their distance from him, afraid that associating with him would offend the Second Hokage.
Even so, Isamu, who had inherited Madara's powerful bloodline, still displayed astonishing learning talent.
Although most of the powerful Ninjutsu scrolls and money left behind by Madara had been confiscated by the Second Hokage, Isamu still reached the strength of a Genin using only the Three Basic Jutsu that remained.
However, the more talent he showed, the more the Second Hokage wanted to eliminate him. Tobirama had attempted to get rid of him many times, but each time he was stopped by his sister-in-law—Uzumaki Mito, the wife of Senju Hashirama. Otherwise, Isamu might not have even lived to see his tenth birthday.

By a river, Isamu sat on a rock, staring at the slowly flowing water as he lamented his tragic fate.
"I'm a modern guy who somehow transmigrated into the Naruto World. Fine. But becoming Uchiha Madara's son? Madara didn't even have a son in the original story! No school, constant surveillance… this is basically setting me up to die," Isamu muttered as he picked up a stone and tossed it into the river, his face filled with worry.
"I watched Naruto before I transmigrated, so I know the plot. But right now, that plot means nothing. I don't even know if I'll live long enough to see it begin. Even if I do, with Konoha's strict surveillance, I'll probably just end up as some weak old man by the time the story starts."
"Sigh… no Ninjutsu scrolls to study, no one to teach me, and no cheat ability. No matter how talented I am, there's nowhere to use it. Am I supposed to develop my own Ninjutsu?"
"Eh? Develop Ninjutsu… that's right!!! I can create my own Ninjutsu! I'm such an idiot—why didn't I think of this earlier?" Isamu slapped his forehead.
"But before developing Ninjutsu, I need to confirm what Chakra natures I have and research based on those attributes. Chakra Induction Paper is easy to get—they sell it on the street. Let's do it!"
Isamu immediately jogged toward the marketplace.

The three ANBU responsible for monitoring Isamu—an organization founded by Senju Tobirama—saw him suddenly sprint toward the street and quickly followed.
"Captain, he's just a kid. Do we really need to watch him all day?"
One of them, wearing a cat-faced mask, spoke up, and another nodded in agreement.
"You two just joined the ANBU, so of course you don't understand," the captain replied calmly. "His father was someone who could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Shodai-sama."
"What?! You mean that defected former Uchiha Clan Head? He's actually that person's descendant?"
"Now you understand why he's important, right?"
Both of them nodded.

Isamu had no idea the ANBU were discussing him. At that moment, he was happily running home with the Chakra Induction Paper he had just bought.
His home was located at the outermost edge of the Uchiha Clan's territory. Compared to Naruto's situation, the only difference was that no one threw things at him or called him a monster.
After arriving home, he closed the door and immediately began the test.
He slowly channeled Chakra into the induction paper.
Very quickly, the top-left corner of the paper began to burn.
Seeing this, Isamu wasn't surprised at all. Almost every member of the Uchiha Clan possessed Fire Release Chakra.
As the Chakra continued flowing in, the top-right corner wrinkled, the bottom-left corner crumbled into dust, and the bottom-right corner became wet.
Then the paper suddenly split in two, as if it had been cut by a blade.
Seeing the results, Isamu realized he possessed five Chakra natures.
Instead of feeling happy, his expression immediately turned grim.
"Holy crap. My identity is already suspicious enough. If Senju Tobirama finds out I have five Chakra natures, he'll probably charge into my house with a sword right away."
"No way, no way. I have to destroy this piece of paper completely. The plot hasn't even started yet—I can't let my life end because of something this trivial."
Isamu quickly took out a small brazier and threw the paper inside. Only after watching it burn into a pile of ashes did he finally feel a little relieved.
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out in his mind.
[Ding! Point System binding in progress… Host: Uchiha Isamu.]
"Ah! What the hell?!"
A sharp headache struck him as a flood of information poured into his brain. It took nearly half an hour before the pain gradually faded.
The moment it disappeared, a virtual screen suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Whoa!"
Anyone would be startled if something suddenly appeared right in front of their eyes.
Lines of text quickly appeared on the screen, and the system's voice sounded again.
[The system will issue tasks based on the host's surroundings. Completing tasks will grant points and rewards. Points can be used in the Shop to exchange for items.]
[To operate the system, the host only needs to think "System" in their mind. The interface is visible only to the host.]
[First task issued: Defeat the approaching provocateur, Uchiha Yo. Reward: 100 points. Failure penalty: Instant death.]
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't just issue tasks without asking! I haven't even figured everything out yet! And that death penalty is way too harsh!"
The system completely ignored his protest.
Seeing there was no response, Isamu quickly organized the information in his mind.
Simply put, the system assigned tasks. Completing them gave points that could be used in the Shop, while failing meant death.
Isamu clenched his teeth.
"It looks like everyone wants me dead. Even this so-called system cheat is trying to kill me. Since all of you want my life, I'll prove that I can survive."
"I'll slap every one of your faces. Just you wait!"
Thinking "System," Isamu opened the Shop to see what items were available.
The result was exactly what he expected.
Rinnegan — 5,000,000 points
Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan — 1,000,000 points
Sage Body — 1,000,000 points
Looking at the long string of zeros after the number 1, Isamu could only show an expression that said:
Just as expected.
