Be the Main God from Naruto - Chapter 43
Grandpa Sarutobi Hiruzen and Uncle Asuma were captured as “old power stubborn elements” and are currently undergoing thought education and labor reform in prison.
Originally, the biggest second-generation official of Konoha, Konohamaru, fell from the peak to the valley in an instant, becoming an ordinary child without any background.
The newly inaugurated Fifth Hokage had introduced special care policies for children like Konohamaru, who were left uncared for. Still, at that time, he was a thoroughly spoiled brat and had refused the relief funds and materials without even thinking.
Once he realized the reality of his situation, his frustration made it impossible for him to soften toward the Tsunade regime.
Reality quickly matured this wild child.
Konohamaru had to take responsibility for his sustenance. He had to come out and do odd jobs to survive and keep living.
Fortunately, his friends, Udon and Moegi, stayed by his side, not drifting away despite the change in his status.
“Hey, does Big Brother have an interest in comic books? This promising new author comes from a distinguished background, and her works are even acknowledged by the Fifth Hokage herself!”
Konohamaru spoke as he dragged Sasuke toward the bookstore.
Uchiha Sasuke, who doesn’t know him!
Although an orphan with no one to rely on, he had inherited part of the Uchiha family’s legacy and was more generous than most!
If Konohamaru could attract a buyer, he could also get a cut in sales.
Sasuke happened to be free at the moment, and suddenly returning to Konoha after over a year, he felt a bit out of place, so having a little guide wasn’t too bad.
“Comic books…”
Sasuke was very sensitive to these words now.
He wondered if that old series “Naruto” had been leaked.
If true…
The consequences could be unimaginable.
“Hey! Uncle Kinkon! I brought you a customer!”
At Konohamaru’s call, a middle-aged man with glasses and a pot belly, moving at a speed inconsistent with his physique, rushed out.
“Ah! Distinguished guest, are you looking to buy novels or comics? Considering your age, you might like the youthful ninja fantasy genre, but recently, we’ve discovered a genius newcomer! She has created a completely new type of work! You’re going to love it!”
The enthusiasm of the shop owner piqued Sasuke’s interest: “Oh? Let me see one.”
The middle-aged man took out a beautifully bound comic book and handed it over.
Sasuke focused his attention and glanced over it.
“Rise of Konoha.”
The cover showed two young girls holding hands and frolicking in a field of flowers, with the warm spring sun spreading its rays in the sky and the breeze causing dandelions to settle on the girls’ hair.
Flipping open the cover, he was greeted by a concise introduction to the work.
?What’s wrong with girls liking girls? The problem isn’t with us; and it’s with the world!?
Volume One—The Name of the Lily.
This comic’s creative technique completely differed from “Naruto,” offering a god-like perspective for the readers, looking down upon all beings, making every character seem like real people, compelling the reader to follow along with the author’s strokes.
“An ensemble piece… Interesting. But these character roles seem oddly familiar…”
Sasuke felt that the characters “Haruno Jin” and “Yamanaka Naito” in the work eerily reminded him of someone.
The plot quickly moved to the period when the relationship between the two female leads heated up. They overcame the societal gaze and resistance from their parents and old conservatives, finally being together openly.
Subconsciously flipping another page, Sasuke’s face reddened, and his body heated slightly.
“This plot… very impressive! Water Release shape transformation and molding… I didn’t know girls could do this with each other?”
Sasuke coughed awkwardly, trying to sound more composed: “How much? This work… No, how many works does this author have? I’ll buy them all.”
The shop owner gave him a knowing look, helping to pack the comics while saying, “It seems our esteemed guest has quite the eye for quality. Unfortunately, this author is a newcomer. There was a literary work she started before, but it was too obscure and didn’t fit the market.”
“This is her second work. Only the first volume is completed, and she’s rushing to finish the next.”
Sasuke closed the comic, glancing down at the cover.
Author: Hinata Hyuga.
“The Hyuga heiress, the one prophesied to marry Naruto?”
It must be said Hinata’s presence was so low in the ninja academy that even Sas.
Uke, her classmate for many years, needed a comic book to recall her identity.
“How did she start drawing comics?”
Sasuke shook his head, deciding not to ponder this question.
His trip to the Sand Hidden Village for “over a year” had been fruitful but also very stressful. Now was a good time to relax.
…
Hokage Office.
Tsunade leaned back in her reclining chair, her eyes staring into the void.
“Reincarnator 003.”
“One C-class Fate Stone, reward points…”
The Fate Stone wasn’t a physical object, just a string of meaningless codes and numbers on the reincarnator’s data screen.
Reincarnators couldn’t possibly glean anything from these meaningless numbers.
Yet, Wang Yan had endowed them with supreme significance.
To exchange for any high-level ability, item, inheritance, or material, one had to pay with Fate Stones as the price, thus securing the right to purchase.
This was a threshold.
“Fate Stones are ranked from high to low in five grades, S/A/B/C/D.”
“High-grade Fate Stones can be exchanged for three of a lower grade. Meanwhile, combining lower-grade Fate Stones into a higher-grade one requires exactly five!”
“Is this encouraging us to undertake high-difficulty missions?”
Tsunade rubbed the red mark on her forehead, her expression peculiar as she looked at the poster on her desk.
?The new cutting-edge work endorsed by the Fifth Hokage Tsunade is now available!?
She couldn’t help but snicker.
She hadn’t expected that that Hyuga girl would utilize a casual signature to such an extent.
But there would be no next time.
“The second task will probably arrive in a few weeks, right?”
Knock, knock, knock.
The door was knocked.
At the same moment, a haunting notification rang in Tsunade’s mind.
?Reincarnator 003 triggers an optional mission.?
?Mission: Promote the virtual reality game “Glory League” across the ninja world.?
?Reward: Reward points and Fate Stones issued based on the degree of mission completion, up to 4000 reward points, and a B-grade Fate Stone.?
?Failure penalty: Deduction of 4000 reward points, reincarnator rating downgrade.?
“A B-grade Fate Stone!”
Tsunade slammed her hand on the table, standing up excitedly, her shoulders trembling.
To revive a person, a B-grade Fate Stone was a prerequisite condition!
She might not understand what a virtual reality game was, but she understood the meaning of “promotion.”
That Hyuga girl had just made an appearance, teaching her a lesson.
Hinata blinked, shyly saying, “Please cast a recommendation vote for me…”
