NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1: 1
"Wait, this is Konoha! Is my name really Chiba Tetsuya?"
In the Konoha Refugee Concentration Camp, Tetsuya, who was lying on the hospital bed, struggled to sit up and felt the pain coursing through his body, confirming that he was still alive.
But now his mind was particularly confused. He was not originally Chiba Tetsuya, and his previous name had been forgotten.
He only remembered that while playing the Hokage mobile game, Super Shadow Crossing Tribulation, he had gotten frustrated with a vegetable opponent, slapped his computer case, and then the case exploded.
When he awoke again, he found himself here.
And the unfortunate fellow, Chiba Tetsuya, had just died.
"The current time is... the period when Uchiha Madara manipulated the Nine Tails to attack Konoha!"
Looking at the Konoha residents gathered in the tent, this further confirmed the memory in his mind.
But it seemed the attack was over, and Konoha was now in the process of rebuilding.
"Sigh, how did I travel to this period?"
Taking a deep breath and feeling the pain in his body, Tetsuya felt a bit uncomfortable.
When others travel through time, they either become the crown prince Naruto, or the cool Sasuke, or perhaps a descendant of the Senju or Uchiha clan.
But he had traveled back in time to become an ordinary resident of Konoha, not even a ninja.
Damn it, now that he has time-traveled, he also wants to live a life of luxury, and also wants to experience Tsunade's beauty and Hinata's and Hanabi's charm.
Now, let alone those dreams, Tsunade seems to still be a young girl.
"I don't accept this. For God's sake, we are all time travelers. You have to give me a cheat. Is the system here? Come out and give me a message!"
[Ding, congratulations on successful traversal, and the system has been successfully bound.]
A system elf in the shape of Erha appeared in front of Tetsuya.
"Nice, I knew systems are standard for time travelers. Tongzi, tell me, what abilities do you have?"
[The main focus of this system is to be simple and unpretentious. You can become stronger by spending money, and you can draw cards by charging money! The rewards in the card pool come from the entire ninja world. I possess things that both exist and do not exist in the ninja world.]
"Awesome! Are there any novice rewards?"
[Fool, this system never does loss-making business and doesn't reward newbies. Why don't you let me give you the peak combat power in the ninja world?]
Erha System used his dog's paw to pick his nostrils in a very human-like manner.
[There is no novice gift package, but I have a first-load reward here. Do you want to try it? Try it by charging six yen first?]
"Six yen for the first charge?"
Tetsuya's eyelids twitched.
"Damn it, don't tell me that this dog system of yours is produced by Tencent."
[Hey, hey, young man, don't talk nonsense. Let me correct you. This system is second-guessing. A dog is a dog, and Erha is Erha.]
Isn't Erha just a dog!
Also, you actually didn't deny being produced by Tencent. You really are produced by Tencent! Don't tell me, you are actually the Hokage ninja mobile game! Your system is too outrageous!
At this moment, Tetsuya felt as if there were a hundred thousand wild horses running wildly in his heart.
However, if you cheat, just cheat, it's better than nothing.
As the saying goes, poor people rely on mutation, and rich people rely on technology. Time travelers like him who have no money or power can only rely on the system.
He took out a piece of change and some coins from his pocket, exactly six yen (six taels).
"System, recharge."
[Ding, congratulations on the successful first charge.]
The Erha System in front of him immediately changed its tone and became flattering.
This guy is so money-hungry, could this be the legendary krypton gold dog?
[Congratulations on receiving the first charge reward: Introduction to Chakra Refining and Basic Three-Body Technique Training Method.]
At the same time, a panel unfolded in front of Tetsuya.
[Name: Chiba Tetsuya
Age: 16
Identity: Konoha civilian
Skill: Chakra Practice
Chakra: 0
Possessed items: How to practice avatars, how to practice clones, how to practice transfiguration
Points: 120]
Tetsuya couldn't help but feel worried when he looked at his own screen. He was truly weak.
The first-charge reward is quite lacking. Except for Chakra refining, which is directly learned through enlightenment, the other three-body techniques have to be learned manually.
"Gouzi, tell me the truth. Did you get a kickback? Why are the rewards so small?"
[What are you talking about? You have only recharged six yen, how much more do you want? Come on, almost, these are all given to you for free, and you can also draw cards with your coupons.]
"Then I want to draw a card."
[Sorry, you don't have enough coupons. You can't even draw from the most basic prize pool.]
Tetsuya almost couldn't catch his breath and was so angry he nearly passed out.
Goodness, is this a plugin of my own or just to make me angry?
"How much does it cost to draw a card?"
[See for yourself.]
The interface in front of him flashed, and three prize pools appeared before him.
The first one is a 168-point coupon, the second one is a 1680-point coupon, and the third one is a 16800-point coupon.
"You are cheating on me, aren't you!"
[The market conditions are like this now. Okay, Lord Gou, I'm going to take a rest. Call me when you have money. Don't contact me unless necessary.]
"System, system! Erha? Krypton gold dog!"
Tetsuya called out twice from the bottom of his heart, but the other party ignored him.
Suddenly, Tetsuya's head turned black.
"I still have money."
[Oh, you didn't tell me earlier if you had money. Master, how much do you want to top up this time?]
"Haha, face."
Tetsuya couldn't help but roll his eyes. Looking at Erha with a flattering look on his face, Tetsuya took out a few more coins from his pocket.
"No, there are still five yen here, I want to top up."
[Tsk, that's it?]
"What? Five yen isn't money?"
[OK, recharge successful.]
The coins in his hand disappeared, and his coupon balance also became 170.
"OK, that's enough for one draw. System, I want to draw a card."
As soon as he finished speaking, the balance in front of him instantly changed to 2.
A huge turntable appeared and started spinning.
[Ding, congratulations to Host for obtaining the complete production process of Ichiraku Ramen!]
"What a rip-off! What do I want with this thing? Why is there such a thing in the prize pool? Shouldn't it be Ninjutsu, a blade, or something like a Bloodline Limit? Are you kidding me?"
[Oh, you can't say that. Host, I've said it from the beginning. I have everything that the ninja world has, and I also have what the ninja world doesn't have.]
[Why, could it be said that this Ichiraku Ramen is not something from the ninja world?]
"..."
He really couldn't refute this. After all, Ichiraku Ramen was indeed something from the ninja world, and its presence was quite strong.
[And Host, listen to me, Konoha is full of reconstruction needs now. Wouldn't it be just right for you to open a ramen shop? With your ramen skills, you will definitely make a profit.]
Tetsuya thought about the popularity of Ichiraku Ramen in the original work, and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
If he opened a ramen restaurant himself, he could earn a lot of money. Once he made money, wouldn't he be able to draw from the lottery again? Whether it's 168, 1680, or 16800, he could draw whatever he wanted!
Just thinking about it made Tetsuya excited.
"Okay, then let's open a ramen restaurant!"
