It's been some time since my death, and I'm pretty sure that I'm in hell or if I'm lucky in a void where the soul goes when it doesn't enter heaven or hell. This pitch-black place is pretty calming for me after all. I liked it when I'm alone before my death but depression and shit like that got me into this situation.
My life was simple, I had loving parents and I was their only child. After graduation from college, I joined the army as a specialist. In my fourth year in the Army, I was promoted to sergeant and after six months of meeting with my team, we were deployed overseas. My first year there was peaceful, but it all came down to the ground like a castle of cards. Because there was an enemy attack, me and my team were sent to the front lines to fend them off, that was the day I took my first kill. After that, we were sent to the front lines multiple times and in my sixth deployment I got injured badly, to be exact I lost my legs that deployment.
After my injury, I retired from the army and was living off my pension. That was until I got shot dead by some robbers who broke into my home, and that was the last thing I remember. Luckily, my parents were on a trip after my relentless persuasion, so they are safe, I know that.
So here I am after my death floating in the void minding my own business and talking to the people beyond the 4th wall. You have no problem with me ranting here right, because if I don't do that, even if I love to be alone in here if I don't do anything I'll go crazy. And since I can't use my body, because I'm in my soul form all I can do is think like this and pass on time, there's time here right?
As I was just minding my business in this place black void, I saw a swirl of white in the distance.
Curious I went towards it and to my surprise, I was seeing a lady with red hair who is impaled by something, and she was speaking something to the baby boy that looks to be only one to two hours old.
I was confused about this situation, I mean what the hell is this all about. Suddenly that white swirl sucked me in, not minding my protest.

Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage of Konohagakure is right now at death's door. He and his wife both are impaled by the claw of the Kyuubi and they will die at any moment, as for Minato, he is sure that he won't be going to the pure land like his beloved, but will be inside the belly of the Shinigami for the rest of eternity with the Yin Half of the Kyuubi.
As his wife, Kushina finished saying what she had to tell their son Naruto, she said to him "Sorry... Minato... I took.... a lot... of... time."
Smiling at her, he said, "No, It's alright."
Then looking at his son, Minato said "Naruto,... as your father,... I will just.... second everything your chatty mom said."
Then closing his eyes he said "Hakke Fuin."
Right after he did that seal, the Shinigami took its blade and was about to cut the soul of Minato from his body along with the Kyuubi.
As his life was going to slip away from him, memories started to flow into his mind. Memories of another world where there were no Ninjas, no Chakra, no Biju, no Jutsus.
But there were wars, weapons of mass destruction similar to the Biju's, then there was the entertainment industry.
As he was skimming through the memories
, he heard a mechanical voice.
[Congratulations! You've transmigrated into the body of Minato Namikaze!
Because of the late awakening of memories, you will be compensated.
So you have won a chance to get some powers!
To get it say Draw!]
Even though he is confused about this situation, he said "Draw."
[Ding! Ding! Ding! You got the powers of Shiba Tatsuya!]
"Who?" That was his first thought, but after that, the mechanical voice didn't speak again and information about the powers of the man named Shiba Tatsuya flooded into his mind.
As he got the information about the powers, his eyes went wide and looking at his wife Kushina he said "I think that I will be the only one absent from our son's life. Take care of him." Saying that he kissed the back of her head and used the powers "Restoration."
As he said that, the wounds on Kushina started to disappear as it was never there in an instant. Right after he did that he looked at the Shinigami who is ready to take his and the Kyuubi's soul into its belly and said to himself "I don't know if this will work."
"Restoration!"
