Konoha.
In a small, dilapidated courtyard, under a dying tree.
Sora slowly put away the shuriken in his hand and looked at the passers-by outside the hospital who were hurriedly walking with sad faces, with an emotional expression.
"It has been ten days since I came to this world."
That's right!
Sora is a time traveler, and he has a system!
A system called card pickup can randomly pick up attribute cards dropped by others from others.
The stronger the person, the higher the level of cards they can pick up, and the higher attributes Sora will get.
From power cards, to speed cards, to ninjutsu cards, etc., the attributes of the cards picked up are all kinds of strange.
From low to high levels, there are white cards, blue cards, purple cards, red cards and gold cards.
Gold is the highest level card.
Unfortunately.
The system was activated for ten days.
Not only did Sora not see the shadow of the golden card, he had not even picked up any card so far.
The reason is that the day he traveled through time happened to be the day the Third Ninja War ended.
Both his parents died in the war, leaving only Sora , who was only five years old.
The panic from time travel and the confusion about the future made Sora dare not leave the courtyard.
As a result, he hasn't seen anyone at all in the past ten days, and naturally there are no cards for him to pick up.
"It's almost time."
After taking a look at the sky, Sora changed into black clothes and headed towards Konoha's cemetery.
Today is the day when the heroes who died on the battlefield enter the cemetery, and everyone will attend.
Walking on the road, looking at the sad and heartbroken passers-by on the lonely streets, Sora understood more about the cruelty of this world.
Just one war left thousands of families broken in Konoha.
Some children were orphaned like him, and some mothers lost their husbands and children.
That's right, at the end of the Third War, Konoha had already started sending children to the battlefield!
"I must become stronger, strong enough to control my own destiny!"
While secretly swearing in his heart, Sora arrived at the cemetery and looked up. The leader was none other than the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was still in his prime.
Then he swept away row after row, including the pale-faced Orochimaru, the gentle-faced Namikaze Minato and others.
However, they all looked sad at this time and stood quietly in front of the commemorative monument.
Seeing that no one noticed him as a child, Sora randomly found a corner and stood down.
Although there are also parents with this body on the memorial tablet, Sora is not very sad.
Because he has never seen the parents of this body at all.
Even because of the war, the original owner had not seen his parents a few times.
Even though Sora searched all his memories, he only knew that his parents only came back once a year at most.
If he hadn't hired an ordinary person to take care of him, the original owner might have starved to death before he could travel through time.
But after learning that his parents died in the war, the nanny also left on her own.
Because the original owner couldn't bear the blow and was exhausted mentally and physically, he allowed Sora to travel through time.
However, although there is no emotion, the memorial still needs to be held.
Just when Sora was thinking wildly, he suddenly saw a white card at the feet of the person in front of him.
It looks about the same size as a playing card, but it is covered with milky white light and looks very beautiful.
When Sora wanted to explore the content on the card, he found that he could not see anything. i
Sora didn't recognize the ninja in front of him, but judging from his clothes, he was obviously a genin of the Uchiha clan.
After some hesitation, Sora still could not resist the temptation of the card. He pretended to have a sad expression and slowly squatted down.
There was no way. After all, this was the first time he had seen the card. No one knew how long the card would last. It would be bad if it disappeared.
Most of the people present were ninjas, so Sora's actions naturally did not escape their attention.
But when he saw a five-year-old child losing his temper because of sadness, he didn't pay much attention to it.
On the contrary, when Namikaze Minato, who had a sunny face, saw the morning sky, his expression suddenly turned gloomy.
But Sora naturally didn't see this scene. He was slowly extending his claws towards the white card.
Because of the short distance, Sora easily pocketed the cards.
Then he rubbed his eyes and stood up again with a look of suppressing sadness.
Casually placing his gaze on a tombstone, Sora couldn't wait to observe the white card in his mind.
During this period, he got up early and stayed up late every day, exercising like crazy, but to no avail.
Facts have proved that his talent is very average, and the system is the only way for him to become stronger.
[Ding, the white card has a strength attribute of +1. Do you want to absorb it? ]
"absorb!"
Immediately afterwards, a warm current poured into his body.
The feeling of comfort made Sora narrow his eyes slightly.
He could clearly feel that his body strength had increased a lot.
"Bring up the body attribute panel!"
[Host: Sora ]
[Strength: 5]
[Speed: 4]
[Physique: 4]
[Spirit: 22]
[Skill: Shuriken Basic LV1. ]
PS: For an average adult, all four items are 10.
Putting the body panel into his eyes, Sora looked away.
Except for spirit, which is due to time travel, other attributes are pitifully low.
His skills are only the basics of shuriken that he just learned in the past ten days.
Sora was just in a daze, but in the eyes of everyone, it was obvious that the child couldn't bear the huge blow and was stunned.
Seeing this scene, Namikaze Minato immediately gritted his teeth and whispered to Uzumaki Kushina beside him:
"Kushina, that is Izumi and Hei's child, I want to adopt him!"
Izume and Hei are Sora 's parents.
They were also from civilian backgrounds and were neighbors with Namikaze Minato.
It can be said that they grew up together since childhood.
But later, because of Namikaze Minato's great talent, he was accepted as a disciple by Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, and he gradually drifted away.
But in this war, Izume and Hei, who were special jounin, were once again assigned to Namikaze Minato.
Unfortunately, both of them died in the battle and did not come back alive.
"Okay, we'll go find the third Hokage when this is over."
Kushina just glanced at Sora and agreed without hesitation.
She is also familiar with Sora's mother Izume, and she and Izume could be called best friends.
As the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, she had no way of leaving Konoha.
So, when Izume didn't have any tasks, they would always go shopping together.
But since the war started, they have hardly seen each other.
Seeing Sora distracted expression at this moment, Kushina couldn't suppress the maternal brilliance in her heart.
Sora naturally didn't know that his future fate had been decided, and he was still looking around, trying to find other cards.
Unfortunately, there is no harvest yet.
"As long as the leaves are flying, the will of fire will not be extinguished."
After Hiruzen Sarutobi made a long speech, everyone dispersed, and Sora also walked towards his den.
This house with a courtyard was the only thing his parents left him.
"I can't train myself, and I don't know how to extract chakra yet. It seems that I will go out for a walk later to see if I can pick up anything good."
"Besides that, it would be best to enter a ninja school, where there are so many attributes of classmates and teachers that can be picked up."
On the way home, Sora began to make plans for his future.
He is just an ordinary orphan and has no chance of coming into contact with powerful ninjas.
Therefore, Ninja School is the best choice, which can allow him to develop steadily and gradually become stronger!
But for an orphan, entering the ninja school is not that easy, so he must find a way.
In this way, Sora slowly approached his small house while thinking.
"Crunch——!"
Pushing open the door, the moment Sora was about to enter, he noticed something unusual.
Immediately, his right hand touched the ninja bag on his waist, which contained his only weapon, a shuriken.
My heart sank. I was just an ordinary child, and now I was an orphan. Who on earth would come looking for me?
Especially at this critical moment when the third war was about to end,Sora couldn't help but think too much.
"Don't be nervous, I'm your father's friend!"
Before Sora could continue his action, a gentle voice sounded in the courtyard.
Sora looked intently, and Minato Namikaze with yellow hair and a smile was looking at him.
Next to Namikaze Minato was Uzumaki Kushina with red hair hanging over her shoulders.
Immediately Sora felt relieved. If it was these two people, although he didn't know why they were looking for him, there shouldn't be any danger.
"I've seen Minato Jounin and Kushina Jounin. I wonder what you want from me?"
Sora saluted the two of them respectfully.
In this ninja world, the only rule to save your life when you are weak is to never try to provoke someone you can't afford to offend.
After all, not everyone is Uchiha Sasuke, who can fight the sky and the ground and still live so well.
Sora did not have an older brother like Uchiha Itachi, nor did he have the status of being the son of the Sage of Six Paths.
As ninjas, Minato and Kushina naturally noticed Sora 's little moves.
"You look like you know us?"
Kushina knelt down and rubbed Sora 's little face with her two slender hands as white as jade.
She had no doubts about Sora in her heart, she just took this opportunity to rub Sora .
Although Sora was young, his sculpted face and height of barely one meter made it impossible for Kushina to take her eyes away.
When Sora heard this, he was shocked at first, but after noticing Kushina's actions, he calmed down.
Then he glanced at Namikaze Minato again. Although he was sunny, he was not as neurotic as Kushina. Maybe he doubted himself because of this matter.
"It's not like you can't hear the eight-code rope!"
Because the little face was constantly deforming in Kushina's claws, Sora words were vague.
"speak English!"
Kushina, who didn't understand, was immediately stunned, and then started rubbing more and more wantonly.
Judging from the angry expression, it was obvious that Sora was teasing her on purpose.
"Ahem! Kushina, Sora said that his parents told him to let him go first."
Seeing the increasing black lines on Sora 's forehead, Namikaze Minato covered his forehead with one hand and said awkwardly.
Only then did Kushina react and reluctantly let go of Sora 's little face.
Realizing that his cheeks were starting to tingle, Sora glared at Kushina in displeasure.
But he also knew that Kushina was such a nervous woman, so he wasn't angry.
Then he focused his attention on Namikaze Minato again, waiting for his answer.
"That's it. Kushina and I are here to take you back to live together, and we have already obtained the consent of the Third Hokage."
Namikaze Minato took a step forward, touched Sora 's ink-like black hair, and said gently.
At the same time, he was always paying attention to Sora 's expression, for fear of Sora 's rejection.
He failed to save his friends on the battlefield, and Minato could not face his own heart if his children could not have a better life.
But he saw that when he was speaking, Sora 's eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly felt a lot more at ease.
Without waiting for Sora's answer, he made a decisive decision: "Look at what you have to take away. Kushina and I are waiting for you here."
After saying that, he gently pushed Sora towards the house.
But these words left Sora confused.
He just saw a golden card of the highest level falling from Minato Namikaze, so why did he agree to it?
Yes, just when Minato took a step forward, Sora saw a golden card falling from him, so he was a little dazed.
This is a golden card, the highest level card in the system!
The golden card that fell from Namikaze Minato, Sora knew very well what this card represented.
It must be, it can only be the art of Flying Thunder God!
I can't care about anything else at the moment, just adopt, the cards are the most important.
So he followed Minato's power and threw the card towards the location with a "snap".
The moment he landed, he had already put the card in his bag.
Seeing this, Kushina instantly came to Sora , helped him up, and asked, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay, I accidentally fell it! I'll clean it up right now."
Sora waved his hands repeatedly, and then hurriedly thought about running inside the house.
I've already got the golden card, so there's no time to be pretentious here. The most important thing is to go back home and check!
Back inside the house, Morning Sky could still hear Kushina's roar and Minato's begging for mercy.
Thinking that it was just the first time they met, Minato had taken the blame and was taken away by Kushina, a smile appeared on Sora's little face.
It was said to be tidying up, but in fact there was nothing to take, just his own change of clothes.
As for the other things, they are all in a storage scroll. Sora only needs to take away the scroll.
Sora who has the consciousness of an adult and has read the original Naruto novel, is very clear that it won't be long before the Third Hokage throws him into an orphanage and confiscates his house and other finances.
Now following Minato and Kushina is a very good choice, it is infinitely better than going to an orphanage.
At least he can take away the wealth left by his parents!
Adhering to the principle of not taking advantage of the black-hearted old man, Sora implemented the strategy of plucking the goose's hair, leaving not even a grain of rice behind.
From the original work, he dislikes the third generation old man very much.
Counting all the Hokages, he was the weakest, and he even shamelessly named himself the strongest Hokage.
In order to destroy the position of village leader, he carried out all kinds of conspiracies and tricks. He didn't want to strengthen Konoha every day, but he knew how to kill Sarutobi Hiruzen!
If you have that time, wouldn't you think of a way to open up financial avenues for Konoha and free Konoha from the control of the daimyo?
Forget it, the problem is that you actually put all the blame on Danzo, and you have been among thousands of flowers, and not a single leaf has touched you!
Completely express the word shameless!
Although he thought so, Sora would never say it.
There was no way, who could let this shameless old thief live the longest? After saying it, Sora felt that he would not survive the next day.
After finishing cleaning up, Sora opened the system.
Although Minato and Kushina didn't follow him, they would definitely be able to detect his actions due to their strength.
So after cleaning up, stop because of reluctance. This is the best reason.
[Ding, the golden card is a primary space talent. Do you want to absorb it? ]
"absorb!"
Although it was different from his guess, Sora was a little confused, but he still absorbed it.
Just like when he absorbed the power card before, a warm current continued to flow in his body.
The only difference is that this warm current is much larger than before.
After the absorption was over, Sora clenched his fist hard, but there was no improvement.
His system had no intelligence at all, so Sora could only slowly explore it on his own.
"Bring up the system panel!"
[Host: Sora ]
[Strength: 5]
[Speed: 4]
[Physique: 4]
[Spirit: 22]
[Talent: Space Talent LV3. ]
[Skill: Shuriken Basic LV1. ]
All attributes remain unchanged, except for the addition of a space talent.
The moment he saw this talent, Sora knew why it was a golden card.
Because this means that he can practice all space attribute ninjutsu in the future, the representative of which is [Flying Thunder God Jutsu].
While excited, Sora curled his lips a little greedily. The lowest level is LV1 and the highest is LV9. This talent is only LV3, which is not powerful enough!
"Minato Namikaze, you are such a piece of trash!"
After picking up the card, his space talent was completely equal to Minato, so Sora couldn't help but sigh.
Time passes quietly like running water.
Unknowingly, Sora had spent two months with Minato and Kushina.
Because of Minato and Kushina's care, Sora s heart gradually calmed down and he no longer panicked like before.
So gradually, he slowly revealed his original character.
During these two months, Sora never gave up on his training but instead worked harder.
Therefore, even if he did not pick up any cards, his strength has grown somewhat.
[Host: Sora ]
[Strength: 6]
[Speed: 5]
[Physique: 5]
[Spirit: 22]
[Chakra: 5]
[Talent: Space Talent LV3. ]
[Skills: Basic Shuriken LV2, Basic Physical Technique LV1, Chakra Extraction Technique LV1. ]
Seeing that his strength, speed, and physique had improved a little, Sora was very satisfied, and a cute smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The basic taijutsu was given to him by Minato Namikaze, and he was just getting started.
As for the Chakra Extraction Technique, it was something left for Sora by his father. It was because he learned the Chakra Extraction Technique that he had chakra.
During this time, he also figured out that the chakra in the system refers to reserves, not existing chakra.
Chakra five is like a cup, whether there is water or not, it is still five.
When the chakra in the system increases, the cup is enlarged to have more capacity!
Sora, it's time to eat!"
At this moment, Kushina's voice sounded in the room, and at the same time, the tempting smell of rice came.
"I got it, I'll come right away." Before he could finish his words, Sora walked toward the room with his short legs.
No need to look, no need to ask, just by the smell of the rice, you can tell that this is Minato's work.
Although Kushina's cooking skills are good, she has no talent and has always stayed at a good level.
"I'm gonna start now!"
After washing his hands quickly, Sora started eating with a groan.
Minato and Kushina smiled at each other and started eating as well.
It is worth mentioning that although Sora was adopted, he was not the son of Minato and Kushina, but the younger brother.
This was the result that Sora got after he argued hard.
"Crack!"
The sound of bowls and chopsticks falling to the ground suddenly sounded. Sora looked up and found a layer of red mist around Kushina's body.
Kushina, on the other hand, closed her eyes and moved her fingers together.
Minato appeared in front of Kushina immediately, placing his right hand on Kushina's lower abdomen, and a very complicated mark appeared on Kushina's lower abdomen.
"Kyuubi Chakra!"
For the first time, this sentence appeared in Sora 's heart.
But after seeing Minato and Kushina's actions, he was no longer anxious.
Although the Kyuubi is powerful, it cannot break away from Kushina's control, let alone Minato's help.
But as he looked at it, Sora realized that something was not right.
He seemed to sense a space, and there was no obstruction in this space.
With just one step, he seemed to be able to enter this space.
Thinking this way, Sora did so.
The moment he took a step forward, he felt as if he had passed through a layer of water, making him unable to open his eyes.
So, he didn't see that there was a card emitting purple light right under his feet, which he ruthlessly stepped on.
When he opened his eyes, he saw three confused faces, those of Minato, Kushina and Kyuubi.
"Why did you get in?"
In an instant, Minato appeared in front of Sora and protected Sora behind him.
It wasn't until this moment that Kushina and Kyuubi reacted.
Kushina also came to Sora, while Kyuubi snorted proudly in the cage, but also raised his ears to eavesdrop.
"I, I don't know, I just suddenly felt a space, and then I came in."
Sora was also very confused, not knowing how he entered the space inside Kushina's body.
On the contrary, Minato's eyes flashed, and he asked: "Sora are you saying that you felt a space and then came in whenever you wanted?"
"Yes!" Sora nodded without hiding anything.
Hearing this, Minato's eyes sparkled even more brightly, and he said to Kushina: "The matter here is over, let's go back and talk!"
Kushina was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and her figure gradually disappeared.
Minato also pulled Sora toward the black passage.
Before leaving, Sora glanced at Kyuubi curiously, but just this time, he could no longer look away.
Because there are hundreds of cards of various colors beside Kyuubi, including white, blue, and purple!
But the next moment, his and Minato's figures began to disappear.
When he came back to his senses, Sora found that he was still sitting in the same place, not moving at all.
For a moment, he had some guesses in his mind.
Since a behemoth like Kyuubi can be imprisoned in the body, the place where Kyuubi is imprisoned is obviously a space.
The reason why he was able to get in was obviously because of LV3's space talent.
After some discussion, Minato determined that Sora 's talent in space was not weaker than his at all, so he was very happy.
He was even more determined in his heart to teach Sora the art of Flying Thunder God once he has the strength to be a jounin.
But Sora himself didn't know all this.
While confirming his talent, he also received some bad news.
That is, although he has space talent, he cannot freely enter the space where Nine-Tails is imprisoned.
Only after the Nine-Tails Rebellion could he have the ability to enter.
This stopped him from playing with the numerous cards around Kyuubi.
After dinner, Sora went back to his room alone.
During this period of time, he also paid close attention to the situation in the ninja world. The three wars have now completely ended.
After that, the major ninja villages secretly licked their wounds and continued to grow and develop.
All those things that should have happened, such as Uchiha Obito is dead, Minato's voice continues to get louder, etc.
This gave Sora a sense of oppression in his heart. Others didn't know it, but he knew the future.
The big boss Uchiha Obito is already in place, Orochimaru is about to defect, the Night of the Nine-Tails is only a few years away, and the Uchiha clan is not far away.
Not to mention the chaotic dancing after the plot started, even the movie level became a weakling!
Each of these matters is not trivial, and with his strength there is absolutely no way he can interfere.
Originally, it was fine as long as he survived and slowly became stronger, but now that Minato and Kushina are here, Sora wants to keep them!
And this requires strong power to complete.
"Minato is twenty-one years old now. He became Hokage at the age of twenty-two and died in the Nine-Tails Rebellion at the age of twenty-four."
"That means I must have shadow-level strength within three years!"
Thinking of this, Sora 's head feels big!
The Kage level is not that easy to break through, otherwise why would Sarutobi Hiruzen be the third Hokage?
After setting the goal, Sora began to make plans.
He is only five years old now, and his physical fitness and chakra are his biggest shortcomings, which can only be made up for through the system.
There is only one person in Konoha who is most likely to drop physical fitness cards, and that is Might Guy!
The second is chakra. This thing must have the most tailed beasts, and the nine tails are even more.
So Sora still set his sights on Kyuubi, but the specific plan had to be implemented slowly.
As for ninjutsu, it's much simpler. Not too many people know it, so you can pick up a lot casually!
In addition, he can also learn on his own, a two-pronged approach!
"Might Guy should be at the training ground!"
While guessing, Sora stopped waiting, said hello to Kushina and ran towards the training ground.
