It's been a week since 'Marcel,' now Tanaka, recalled his past life. The memories came right after he got hurt while on a mission to deliver supplies to the Leaf Village, which had entered a war.
When he woke up, everything had changed for him, whether it was the way he saw this world where he had lived for 15 years or the fact that he was seeing letters above people's heads like in the games he used to play in his previous life.
Things couldn't get even more complicated when he discovered that, in reality, the world he reincarnated into was none other than the world of Naruto.
As a fan of anime, manga, and novels, he couldn't not know this world and the danger he was in, especially being an Uzumaki and knowing what would happen in the near future.
He didn't know exactly when the extermination of the Uzumaki clan, along with the Hidden Whirlpool Village, would happen. But, for now, he should be safe?
What made him feel 'safe' was that his little cousin, 4-year-old Kushina Uzumaki, still lived here. As long as Mito Uzumaki didn't appear wanting to take her away - he should be partially safe?
Well, it was a dangerous world in a period of the Second World War, so it wasn't correct to think he was completely safe.
"Tanaka-san, we are coming in~"
A sweet, childish voice echoed.
"Come in," Tanaka responded.
Soon, a cute little girl with light eyes and long straight red hair entered, followed by a woman with long wavy red hair and red eyes.
Tanaka's eyes blinked a few times as he looked towards his aunt and little cousin.

<???>
LV?? Akane Uzumaki

Although he had many questions about his ability to see this information and the reason behind it, Tanaka's biggest doubt was: 'Why can't I see anything beyond Akane-san's name?'
"Tanaka-kun, are you feeling better?" Akane approached the bed, placing her hand on his forehead. She smiled gently, "Your fever has gone down."
"Yes, I'm feeling better." Tanaka smiled, "Thank you for your concern, Akane-san."
Setting aside the confusing things like the letters he saw above their heads, Tanaka sat up and saw little Kushina carrying a tray and said with a smile, "Is this for me?"
"Yes," Kushina nodded shyly.
"Thank you." Tanaka thanked as he accepted the wooden tray and placed it on his lap.
It was a standard clay pot with a wooden spoon beside it and a glass of water.
Picking up the spoon, he opened the lid.
Before he started eating, something appeared as he looked at the soup.
══════
[Rice and vegetable soup made by Akane Uzumaki and Kushina Uzumaki. With the sincere wish of the two, your HP will be restored. Akane Uzumaki's cooking skills provide additional benefits: +20% EXP for a week and +10% to all skills for a week.]
══════
'There's even something like this?'
Tanaka couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
No matter what or how; since he obtained something like this, he wished to learn more about it.
"Thank you for the food." He said, putting his hands together.
Kushina leaned on the bed with her arms, while Akane stood beside it, watching him start to eat with a gentle smile.
As he ate, he indeed felt increasingly better.
'Is there something like a status?' He thought while eating.

'...' He thought: 'So there really is such a thing and...'
As he ate, his HP was restored until, when he had finished everything, he was now completely recovered.
"Thank you for the food." Putting his hands together, he thanked, "It was delicious."
"Hehe~" Kushina laughed while resting her arms on the bed, her feet going up in the air each time she swung them. She said decently with her childish voice: "I'm glad you liked it~"
"You're welcome." Akane said with the same gentle smile.
When Tanaka finished drinking the glass of water, Akane took the tray and started to carry it out of the room.
Before leaving, she said: "Kushina-chan, come with me, let your cousin rest."
══════
It must be said that having considerably high stats while still being level 1 was hard to understand.
After all, even Kushina was at level 15 and at the current moment, he was stronger than her, so for him to be just at level 1...
'Is it because I am the host of the system?' He thought.
Moreover, just a few minutes ago, after Kushina and Akane left the room, he tried to talk to some system entity. But it yielded no results.
Although having an entity might make it easier for him to understand various things related to the system... Honestly, he felt more comfortable with the fact that such a thing didn't exist.
While Tanaka tried to communicate with some entity, he managed to open the skill list for the first time and there were only two skills listed.
══════
[Gamer's Mind (Passive) Max Level]
[Allows the user to think logically and calmly about situations. Grants a state of mental peace. Immunity to psychological effects.]
══════
[Gamer's Body (Passive) Max Level]
[Grants a body that allows living in the real world as if it were a game.]
══════
The descriptions of each skill were more ridiculous than the other. Whether it was the Gamer's Mind or the Gamer's Body. The mind, if it's as he imagines, perhaps not even someone with a Sharingan would be able to affect him with genjutsu. As for the Gamer's Body, there's a high chance that, even if he had only 1 HP, he would still be able to move normally.
Though not immune to pain. Believe him, he tested it...
In any case, they were two very good and overpowered skills. Just with these two skills alone, he already felt safer.
Of course, the destruction of the Hidden Whirlpool Village was still concerning.
