Marvel: Randomly Load a Protagonist Template - Chapter 77

That Goku’s Saiyan bloodline is not high-level; it doesn’t compare to Broleven Vegeta. It is of the lowest rank among Saiyans.

Goku’s incredible strength comes from his unclouded mind and pure martial arts dedication.

Hawking, however, is not so pure-hearted; he seeks to increase his fighting power merely for self-preservation, his thoughts far from singular. To reach Goku’s heights, he needs to supplement with various abilities.

Moreover, the refinement of ninja chakra involves a combination of physical and mental power, and excelling in either can mark one as a genius.

Now, with Naruto Uzumaki’s whirlpool bloodline, combined with a Saiyan’s terrifying physical gifts and a wizard’s mental prowess, wouldn’t he instantly become a super ninja genius?

What if he transformed into a Great Ape then? Could a simple Rasengan then rival the power of a Tailed Beast Bomb?

And what would happen if he used the Multi-Shadow Clone Technique after transforming into the Great Ape?

Lastly, once the Naruto template is loaded, would the Nine-Tails also be inside him? If the Nine-Tails is included, with its transformation, the Fox Cloak, and the healing solid effects of the Nine-Tails chakra, the combination of these buffs might be quite advantageous.

A Saiyan in a Fox Cloak, or a Great Ape in a Fox Cloak.

The more he thinks about it, the more he realizes that the Naruto template isn’t as disappointing as initially thought; it could be combined to develop many impressive techniques.

“First, I should find a place to load it once, then slowly validate these ideas.”

Only by loading a protagonist template at least once can a body retain the protagonist’s bloodline and memories. Right now, all these thoughts are just speculation.

Turning off the panel and dressing, he opened the window when a gust of cold wind blew in.

“Wow, it’s snowing. Well, Christmas is coming soon.”

Looking at the swirling snowflakes outside, Hawking paused momentarily but didn’t pay much attention; such weather is trivial for him.

Using his flight technique, he flew out the window, headed far from the school to a secluded woodland, where he opened his panel again and clicked the load button for sixteen-year-old Naruto Uzumaki.

Instantly, his black hair spiked up and turned blonde, a Leaf Village headband appeared on his forehead, and his clothes transformed into an orange and black tracksuit.

Marks like those of a fox’s whiskers also appeared on his cheeks.

At the same time, sixteen years of Naruto’s memories rapidly flashed through his mind.

This included what Hawking was most concerned about: the basic ninja techniques learned in ninja school, Kakashi’s guidance, Jiraiya’s teachings, etc.

The memories stopped abruptly after the battle at the Tenchi Bridge when he fought Orochimaru as a four-tailed beast.

“Too bad, a bit further, and I could have learned Sage Mode.”

As the memories receded, Hawking sighed.

But he quickly came to terms with it; it’s all random. If he had first drawn Goku in his thirties as Super Saiyan, he would have been far too powerful from the start.

The protagonist’s template is just a bonus; the primary goal remains to enhance his innate strength.

Loading the protagonist template is just icing on the cake; his continuous training truly builds his power.

Like the fight against the riot last night, he didn’t need to load any protagonist template to be effective; that strength is what he truly seeks.

“Let’s test this power.”

After warming up, Hawking began to test the changes to his body with various punches and kicks, now enhanced with Naruto’s bloodline.

He quickly discovered that his strength and speed had increased significantly since the previous night.

“Shadow Clone Technique!”

With a series of hand signs, a clone identical to himself appeared instantly beside him.

“Rasengan!”

With the aid of the clone, a blue Rasengan rapidly formed in Hawking’s right hand.
“Impressive, it’s so big!”

Once the Rasengan was fully formed, Hawking looked at it in surprise, noticing it was as large as a basketball.

Remarkably, he wasn’t using any advanced Rasengan like the Giant Rasengan; it was just a standard one. This confirmed his suspicion that the Saiyan and wizard bloodlines had enhanced his chakra and ninjutsu, making his techniques significantly more potent than usual. Additionally, as his physical and mental strengths improved, his ninjutsu would continue to strengthen. At this rate, he might be able to create a Rasengan as large as the moon.

Dispersing the Rasengan, he decided to test other techniques and realized that aside from the Rasengan, Naruto didn’t know many other complex jutsus. He knew the basics: substitution, transformation, and his original Sexy Jutsu and Harem Jutsu.

“Right, there’s also the Summoning Jutsu, but can I use that here?”

Summoning Jutsu is a space-time ninjutsu that allows users to summon creatures with which they have made a blood contract. Naruto’s contract allows him to summon toads from Mount Myoboku.

Given that he was in the Marvel universe, logically, even if he performed the Summoning Jutsu, it might not work.

However, considering previous experiences with the magic staff, Nimbus Cloud, flying broomstick, and invisibility cloak, it seemed possible he could defy logic and summon something while the Naruto template was loaded.

“Only one way to find out.”

Biting his thumb to draw blood, Hawking quickly formed the necessary hand seals and pressed his hand to the ground.

“Ninja Art: Summoning Jutsu!”

A black summoning seal spread on the ground, followed by a loud “bang,” and a giant red toad with a smoking pipe appeared under Hawking. The toad was so huge it was about ten stories tall.

“Holy crap, it worked!”

Staring at the giant toad under him, Hawking was stunned in place, amazed at the power of the protagonist template.

According to Naruto’s memories, this wasn’t the toad Gamakichi he had grown up with but Gamakichi’s father, Gamabunta.

“Young man, why have you summoned me suddenly?”

The giant toad puffed on its pipe, puzzled. Naruto usually summoned his sons for battles; why would he summon him today? Was there a formidable enemy they needed to confront?

But looking around and sensing no enemies, the situation seemed peaceful.

“Nice to meet you, Elder Toad!”

Hawking flew up from the top of Gamabunta’s head to face him directly, making himself visible to the toad.

On seeing Hawking, Gamabunta’s toady eyes blinked in confusion:
“Who are you, kid?”

The kid in front of him had the same chakra and wore the same clothes and hair as Naruto, but his face was different. Was this Naruto using a transformation technique?
