Naruto: The Clanless Prince

Uzumaki Kushina sat in the empty seat next to Sora.

After Uzumaki Kushina sat down, she felt that the atmosphere was very strange.

Many people looked at her and Sora, who was sitting next to her, with strange eyes.

Masada Hayame clapped his hands. "Okay, let's start class now."

During class, Uzumaki Kushina kept glancing at Sora from time to time.

If she could be isolated by everyone, then the boy next to her must have a bad character, right?

But he seemed quite normal.

He looked handsome, not at all vicious.

He also listened to the lesson very carefully during class.

Although it was their first meeting, Uzumaki Kushina had a pretty good impression of Sora. The most important thing was that Sora didn't laugh at her earlier.

According to common sense, someone as handsome as Sora should be quite popular. How could he be isolated?

Uzumaki Kushina sighed. Now was not the time to care about others.

She had just arrived in Konoha today, and she felt really panicked. Moreover, she had been laughed at by her classmates as soon as she entered school.

Uzumaki Kushina felt that her future might not be easy.

Sora was in a very strange mood now.

Because Sora noticed that Uzumaki Kushina kept looking at him from time to time.

Sora guessed that Uzumaki Kushina was curious about him since no one else had chosen to sit next to him.

But what did Uzumaki Kushina's sudden sigh mean?

Could it be that being his deskmate felt exhausting?

Sora could still understand other people's words.

But Uzumaki Kushina had just arrived in Konoha that day, so she probably didn't know about him.

Sora felt puzzled.

However, Sora couldn't focus on why Uzumaki Kushina was sighing now because after witnessing Uzumaki Kushina's admission, Sora finally gathered the last 50 witness points to activate the system.

[Witness the enrollment of important figure Uzumaki Kushina, and you will be rewarded with 50 witness points.]

[It is detected that the Host has 100 witness points and meets the system startup conditions. Do you want to enable it?]

Sora was extremely excited, finally gathering 100 witness points.

"Turn on."

In front of Sora's eyes, a virtual panel appeared.

Sora was shocked and glanced at Uzumaki Kushina next to him with a guilty conscience.

Uzumaki Kushina had her hands on her chin, staring blankly at the blackboard, obviously distracted.

There was nothing unusual about the others.

Sora breathed a sigh of relief. Although he guessed that others wouldn't be able to see the virtual panel, he still couldn't help but worry.

Sora's data was displayed on the virtual panel.

[Character: Sora] 

[Bloodline: Uchiha clan, Senju clan] 

[Blood Inheritance Limit: None] 

[Chakra: One-fifth Sharingan] 

[Ninjutsu: E-level Ninjutsu Three Body Technique] 

[Illusion: None] 

[Taijutsu: Shuriken throwing proficiency, D-level Taijutsu] 

Sora: ... 

One out of five Sharingan status Kakashi? What does that even mean?! 

Sora noticed there was an "Exchange Shop" under his character panel. 

When Sora opened the exchange shop, he was dazzled by the variety of abilities inside. 

There were so many options, ranging from the Seduction Technique to Bloodline Limits. 

The sound of the system echoed in Sora's ears again. 

[Reminder to the Host: If the Host does not have the prerequisites for the ability to purchase, the witness points spent will be increased fivefold. Each time the Host witnesses a major event, the system will randomly provide three rewards for the Host to choose one. The system's random rewards are not limited to the ninja world but will not exceed the ninja world's scope.] 

Sora frowned and asked, "In other words, if I don't have the conditions to awaken the Ice Release bloodline, then the witness points required to redeem it are five times the normal price. But if I have the water-type Chakra and wind-type Chakra, the price is normal, right?" 

[As Host understands. Since this is the first time the Host is activating the system, the system will provide the Host with a gift: choose one of three rewards.] 

[Reward 1: Unlock the Sharingan with two-tomoe in both eyes.] 

[Reward 2: All sword forms of Breath of Thunder, along with Thunder Attribute Chakra form change and Nature Transformation.] 

[Reward 3: Devil Fruit · Swimming Fruit, with the side effects removed, allowing the user to swim in the sea.] 

Seeing these three rewards, Sora began to think deeply. 

First of all, the Devil Fruit · Swimming Fruit could be ignored. 

Being able to swim on the road or walls sounded cool but was ultimately pointless. 

As for unlocking the Sharingan, after some consideration, Sora decided against it. 

Since he already carried Uchiha blood, it wasn't clear if he could awaken the Sharingan on his own. Even if he couldn't buy it in the shop, it would cost the normal amount of witness points. 

What Sora lacked most now was the ability to increase his strength directly. 

And the sword forms of Breath of Thunder seemed perfect for him. 

Sora remembered a saying: 

"One sword per season, one sword dominates per season." 

Most importantly, the Thunder Attribute Chakra form change and Nature Transformation would greatly enhance Sora's overall power. 

In Konoha, the only techniques he currently had access to were the Three Body Technique and basic Taijutsu. 

"System, I choose Reward Two!" 

[Does the Host wish to receive the reward now?] 

Sora raised an eyebrow. "What happens if I receive the reward now?" 

[The Host already possesses the Thunder Attribute Chakra but lacks the concept of its form change and Nature Transformation. 

The system will temporarily take over the Host's body to simulate these abilities, allowing the Host to master them. 

All the sword forms of Breath of Thunder will also be transmitted into the Host's mind and simulated for mastery.] 

Sora hurriedly refused. "Don't activate it yet!" 

[The reward will be temporarily stored in the system space, and the Host can claim it at any time.] 

Sora breathed a sigh of relief. If the system took over his body right now, simulating all the sword forms and Chakra changes, he might attract unwanted attention. 

With the system now activated and the sword forms of Breath of Thunder ready to be mastered, Sora finally felt a sense of security. 

He had no intention of hiding his strength entirely. 

Keeping it hidden would only limit his actions. 

After all, during the next Great Ninja War, Sora would rely on Konoha to gather witness points. 

He also didn't have the unnecessary habit of pretending to be humble to surprise others later. 

The stronger he appeared, the easier his life in Konoha would be. At the very least, he wouldn't have to endure the scrutiny of others. 

In the ninja world, survival depended on strength. 

Still, it wouldn't do to reveal all his abilities at once; there had to be a gradual process. 

Otherwise, the paranoia of Konoha's higher-ups might lead them to act against him. 

Sora suppressed his excitement, deciding to wait until he got home to claim the reward.
