Chapter 1: Uchiha Seimei
In the room.
Seimei slowly awakens, his gaze sweeping around, confusion filling his eyes.
'Where is this?'
The moment this thought crosses his mind, a flood of fragmented memories rushes into his head.
'Ninja. Konoha Uchiha.'
Seimei quickly sorts through the memories, familiar yet strange words helping him gradually understand his current situation.
There's no doubt about it; he has traversed into another world.
According to the memories, the original owner of this body shares his name but is a member of the Uchiha clan from Konoha.
Uchiha Seimei is just ten years old and currently in the fourth grade at the Ninja Academy.
The reason he was able to take over this body is simple: the original owner had just received news of his parents' deaths after school this afternoon.
Overwhelmed with grief, he inadvertently met his end.
And now, Seimei is the new master of this body.
However, none of that matters.
What matters is that this world is renowned for its ninja culture and is currently in the midst of the Third Great Ninja War.
One word perfectly describes this era: life is as disposable as grass.
Not only the common folk but even high-ranking ninjas live in uncertainty during this chaotic time.
This leaves Seimei with little sense of security.
Even in the strongest village, Konoha, the situation is dire.
Moreover, the original owner is from the Uchiha clan, which faced annihilation after the Great Ninja War—a perfect storm of misfortune!
"Ugh! I thought dying from overwork was tragic enough, but now I have to deal with this."
Seimei feels a wave of disbelief wash over him.
What? You say he has extraordinary powers?
Please, Seimei just felt it—the original owner, despite this immense trauma, still hasn't awakened the Sharingan.
This talent can hardly be described as poor; it's downright garbage.
As for chakra?
Well, he has a bit.
But so what?
In the ninja world, it ultimately boils down to bloodline; those whose bloodlines are closer to Otsutsuki Kaguya have higher potential.
Otherwise, he might as well be like Might Guy, a brief flash in the pan.
Seimei has no desire to save the world.
He understands himself very well.
He may have some ability, but just a little; trying to carve out a unique path like Orochimaru is nearly impossible.
"If only I had a golden finger!"
After pondering for a while and coming up empty, Seimei can only voice his frustration.
However, just as his words fall, a pale blue, translucent panel appears in his field of vision.
**[Name: Uchiha Seimei
Age: 10
Physical: 5
Mental: 7
Chakra: 60 (125)
Bloodline: Sharingan - Unawakened (51/100)
Skills: None]**
"This is... a system panel?!"
Seimei instantly sits up straight, his negative thoughts vanishing in an instant.
He's not one to easily give up; the previous situation was just too perplexing, leading to unavoidable feelings of lethargy.
But now...
While he's still unsure what this panel can do, it gives him a glimmer of hope, doesn't it?
His eyes scan the panel; he dismisses the name and age as basic information.
What catches his attention is the physical and mental stats.
The former represents his potential in physical abilities.
This includes, but isn't limited to, physical recovery, nerve response speed, muscle density, bone strength, and all other physical-related capabilities.
As for the latter, it represents his mental potential.
For ordinary people, these two stats average around three points; exceeding three indicates the potential to become a ninja.
His physical stat is five, and his mental stat is seven. At first glance, this seems good, but that's misleading.
At his age, a physical stat of five is impressive among common students, but remember, the original owner has inherited the Uchiha clan's prestigious bloodline, so this is somewhat lacking.
As for the mental stat...
Seven isn't low, but Seimei suspects it has increased due to his arrival; otherwise, it would probably be around five.
Otherwise, there's no explanation for why the original owner didn't awaken the Sharingan.
It's nonsense to say the original owner lacked feelings for his parents.
He clearly succumbed to grief upon learning of their sacrifice; how could he have no real feelings?
Yet even so, the original owner's Sharingan awakening level barely exceeded half. This can only mean the body's potential is severely lacking, leaving no other explanation.
However, this burden now falls on Seimei.
After thinking for a moment, Seimei finds no good solution and can only set it aside for now.
He turns his gaze to the skills section, which is completely empty.
Logically, having fused with the original memories, he should have some skills, but the panel shows nothing.
Although Uchiha Seimei's potential is lacking, he should still know the basics of the three body techniques, so this puzzles him.
If it weren't for the chakra flowing through his meridians, he would have doubted the authenticity of those memories.
'Um, could it be because 'I' haven't tried it myself?'
With this thought in mind, Seimei stands up, recalling the memories in his head. He begins to channel chakra, slowly forming hand seals, attempting to perform the Clone Technique.
However, after expending chakra, nothing happens.
Wait a minute...
Seimei's gaze sharpens as he looks at the skill panel, where he notices a distortion. Eventually, a line of text appears: — Clone Technique: lv0 (1/100)!
"It really is because I didn't try it myself."
Murmuring at the newly revealed skill, Seimei shifts his gaze to the level and numbers that follow.
If he's not mistaken, this should indicate proficiency.
With that thought, Seimei channels chakra once more, just like before, and attempts the Clone Technique.
Without any surprises, he fails again.
However, there's no trace of impatience on Seimei's face.
Why?
Because the number in the skill panel has changed. The Clone Technique now reads lv0 (3/100).
From this, Seimei can reasonably conclude that this is a proficiency system.
As for why his proficiency increased by two points this time?
Seimei suspects it has to do with the memories in his mind.
At this point, he's essentially recalling the power he once had, so the proficiency growth is unstable.
Verifying it is simple.
Seimei takes a deep breath to calm his racing heart, then tries hard to recall the original owner's practice of the Clone Technique and starts to recreate it.
A few seconds later, a puff of chakra smoke appears but quickly dissipates.
The Clone Technique fails again.
However, the proficiency increases by three points — Clone Technique: lv0 (6/100)!
Clearly, his suspicion was correct.
Now, he can quickly manifest everything the original owner had in the shortest time possible, thereby covering up his abnormalities.
It's important to know that the ninja world has plenty of mind-reading techniques, and if he reveals any weaknesses, Seimei doesn't think he can escape the scrutiny of the Anbu.
Though the likelihood of the Anbu noticing him is slim, it never hurts to be cautious.
