Chapter 2: System

I'm crying… I'm crying so much and I'm not even sure why.

Actually, there are many reasons…

Why? Why don't I have my own body? Why am I in the body of Neji Hyuga and what happened to the original Neji?

I don't know… Maybe I am the original Neji and it has always been my fate to be born in this world. Oh no, I'm not starting with this fate bullshit!

Anyway, now that I think about it, it doesn't really matter to me what happens to the original soul of this body, it's God's problem, not mine. I never ask for this body, my conscience is clear.

The real reason for my grievance is that I know how bad Neji's life is. Now that I'm him, I know my own future.

Even if in the manga Neji is only a secondary character, he still has an important role as a member of Team Guy.

What if I'm not strong enough and die in a fight? What if I'm not strong enough and because of me Lee and Tenten die? And I'm not even talking about Neji's stupid death during The Fourth Shinobi World War that I need to avoid…

There is also my new father Hizashi, I don't want him to die, I don't want to be left alone in the scary Hyuga clan since I'm a member of the branch family…

Now I understand why God said that my life will be very hard. All this pressure, and I'm not even one day old…

Thinking about my situation, there is actually a simple solution to all my problems: strength. With strength I can protect people dear to me, I can change their future and more importantly, I can change my own future! Yes, I promise I will be strong, I will work hard, I will not be lazy like in my last life.

At first, I didn't plan to change the future of this world, I just wanted to befriend the main cast and try my best to survive. But now that I am Neji Hyuga, everything has changed…

"Neji? Are you alright? Why are you crying so much? Are you hurt somewhere?" Asked my father in a worried voice while inspecting me.

Oh that's right, now that I have found a solution to my problems and have accepted my new life I should stop crying.

Ouch! I'm so stupid, I cried so much that my throat hurts terribly.

"Don't worry Hyuga-san, he must be hungry. If you're ready, I can take him to the nursery." Said a female voice. I know this voice, it's the same nurse again.

Hungry? Now that she says it, it's true that I'm hungry.

"Yes. Please take care of him, I have to make some preparations for my wife's funeral."

My father carefully gives me to the nurse, who then brings me elsewhere. After some time, she finally gives me a bottle of milk. It doesn't taste bad!

I'm now in a crib... Again… But this time with babies crying around me. I really hope I will not have to stay in this nursery for too long, all this noise is unbearable!

[The system has successfully merged with the host's soul.]

Suddenly, a blue screen appears before my eyes. Huh? What is this?

Oh yeah, I almost forgot that God gave me a system. If I remember correctly, he told me that with the help of this system, I could become the strongest shinobi in this world. Amazing! I just hope it's true because I don't think I can become stronger than Naruto, Sasuke, Madara, and Kaguya by myself.

[A tutorial explaining how to use the system will soon start. Please note that after this tutorial, the system will never directly interact with you. The system will never guide you, advise you, nor judge you. Furthermore, all quests provided by the system are optional, you can live your new life the way you want.]

That's good to know, at least I avoid the cliche of the annoying system who thinks for its host.

[Beginning of the tutorial… The system has five main functions: 1.Status, 2.Attributes, 3.Skills, 4.Quests, 5.Shop. You can display the corresponding screen of a function by thinking about it.

Please think 'Status' to display the status screen.]

There is a shop! I can't wait to see what it sells.

Okay, let's try it! 'Status'.

STATUS

Name : Neji Hyuga

Level : 1

XP : 0/100

Chakra point : 20/20 (Newborn)

Endurance point : 10/10 (Newborn)

Strength : 10 (Newborn)

Speed : 10 (Newborn)

Chakra control : 21% (Low genin)

Shop Points : 5000

[To gain a level you need a certain amount of XP (Experience Point). You also gain a level every year during your birthday… You can gain XP by killing or defeating an opponent, completing quests provided by the system or completing missions for your village… You can increase your statistics thanks to Attributes Points. Attributes Points will be explained later in the tutorial… Finally, Shop Points can be used to buy things in the shop. You can gain Shop Points by completing quests, you also gain 5000 Shop Points each time you level up.

Please think 'Attributes' to display the attributes screen.]

I carefully read the explanations… It's easy to understand and works exactly like a video game. It's surprising, the system seems rather generous, one free level every year and 5000 Shop Points each time I level up.

Alright next! 'Attributes'.

ATTRIBUTES

PWR: 1

CHA: 1

AGL: 1

Remaining Attributes Points: 10

PWR: Power - each point increases Endurance point by 10, Strength by 10 and strengthens the host's body.

CHA: Chakra - each point increases Chakra point by 20 and Chakra control by 1%.

AGL: Agility - each point increases Speed by 10, also increases the host's perception and aim.

[Each attribute is explained on the screen. Attributes have a direct effect on your body. There are two ways to increase your attributes: the first is by using Attributes Points, you gain 10 Attributes Points each time you level up. The second is by physically training your body and your chakra.

Please think 'Skills' to display the skills screen.]

Only three attributes?! Each attribute is powerful and useful and thankfully I can increase them by training. I'm not yet sure how to spend my Attributes Points, maybe I will start to equally distribute them, then later specialize. Since Hyuga are Taijutsu specialist, I should probably specialize in it, but Ninjutsu is also very important… Ahh, it's hard to choose!

Anyway, I still have time, I will think about it later. Let's see the next function. 'Skills'.

SKILLS

Active skills

-

Training skills

-

Perks

<Hyuga>

[Active skills gather all your jutsu (Taijutsu, Ninjutsu, Genjutsu…)... Training skills gather all the skills related to your training. These skills have the particularity to increase your attributes… Perks are passive abilities that give you various bonuses. You can gain perks by completing special quests provided by the system… All active and training skills can level up and are upgradable… Note: you can learn more about a skill/perk by thinking about its name.

Please think 'Hyuga' to learn more about this perk.]

Wow, all my skills can level up and are upgradable that's really powerful. I'm so excited, this system is amazing!

I wonder what bonuses the Hyuga perks gives me. 'Hyuga'.

[Perks: Hyuga

Effects: 1. Your Chakra control starts at 20%. 2. Increase XP gains for all Taijutsu skills by 25%. 3. Reduce by 50% the cost of all Hyuga's techniques in the shop.

Restriction: Being born in the Hyuga clan.]

Hmm, all Hyugas are born with good chakra control and a natural talent for Taijutsu thanks to the Byakugan, it's in their bloodline. However, the 50% reduction for the shop is incredible, it means that the shop sells Hyuga's techniques! No hesitation, I will buy them all, it will help me a lot, especially since a lot of techniques are available to the clan's main house only.

[Please think 'Quests' to display the quests screen.]

'Quests'.

QUESTS

-

[This screen display all your current quests. You don't have any quest for the moment. The quests are divided into three categories:

- Main quest (usually long or hard to complete with a good reward at the end).

- Daily quest (short and easy quest which can be completed every day).

- Event quest (can only be triggered by a special event and disappears at the end of this event).

Some quests have a timer. If a quest with a timer is not completed before the end of its timer, the quest is considered as failed. No matter the category, all quests are optional.

Please think 'Shop' to display the shop screen.]

Even if quests are optional, I think I will do them all. They are a good source of XP and rewards. Well, except if the quests ask me to kill innocent people…

Alright, now it's time for the most interesting part: the shop! 'Shop'.

SHOP

[Jutsu], [Search]

[The shop sells every known jutsu in this world except for Kekkei Genkai (bloodline limits) and Kekkei Tota (bloodline selection).

The function Shop has two sub-function : [Jutsu] and [Search]. Thinking 'Jutsu' will display the list of all jutsu in the shop. Thinking 'Search' followed by what you're looking for will display the result of your search. For example: 'Search: Hyuga's techniques', or 'Search: Chidori'... Buying a jutsu from the shop will directly give you all the knowledge about it.

Please try the sub-function 'Search' to search a jutsu of your choice.]

Too bad no Kekkei Genkai, but I can't be too greedy, this shop is still amazing! I can already imagine all the possibilities. Effortlessly learning jutsu just by buying them in the shop is a real cheat. I can become the next God of shinobi by mastering all known jutsu! If I don't die before of course…

Alright, the system wants me to search for a jutsu. Hmm, let's see. 'Search: Rasengan'.

[Jutsu name: Rasengan

Type: Ninjutsu

Description: The Rasengan is a spinning ball of chakra formed and held in the palm of the user's hand.

Effect: On contact, the Rasengan grinds into its target, propels them along the Rasengan's trajectory causing high damage.

Chakra cost: 600+

Restriction: CHA: 35

Shop point: 25000

]

[The "+" symbol next to the chakra cost means that you can use more chakra than indicated to increase the power of the jutsu… Some jutsu have a restriction, you can't buy them if you don't meet the requirement. In this case, you can't buy the jutsu Rasengan until your CHA attribute reaches 35.]

I understand. Anyway, for now I don't even have enough chakra to use it so the restriction doesn't matter.

Hmm, Rasengan cost only 25000 shop points, that doesn't seem that high knowing that I gain 5000 shop points by level.

[The tutorial is now complete. Good luck with your new life.]

Thank you!
