My head hurts so badly, Note clutches his head as an intense pain forces him awake.
"Where the fuck am I?"
Looking around only to be greeted by utter darkness, the room was so dark he couldn't even see his own hands. "Ok it's obvious I've been kidnapped!" he exclaims while wondering who would even kidnap him, he wasn't rich enough to be kidnapped for ransom neither were his parents so obviously the dumbass that kidnapped him is just wasting his time.
My name is Note (yes a weird ass name but its cool) obviously that's not the name my parents gave me but Note sounds better than Richard. I'm a 24 year old Motorsport Engineering student with an above average intelligence, handsome face, 6'4 in height and a really high level of charisma. Of course to balance all this out the world threw a curve ball at me by being a high functioning sociopath with a very limited ability to feel different emotions with no motivation whatsoever to do anything in life as long as I had food, internet I didn't care about anything else. As anyone can guess I grew up extremely bored because I couldn't find anything interesting, when I was 18 I decided to become a full time otaku when I discovered Naruto anime and webnovels.
Suddenly the dark space brightens and I can see there's a table and two chairs on opposite sides of the table while wondering why the space suddenly turns into a spartan looking room with no other furniture whatsoever.
I heard the sound of a door opening behind me, turning around to see who kidnapped only to be stunned by the 70 year old looking man walking into the room.
The man walked to one of the chairs and sat down while looking at me. "You can sit down now Mr Richard or is it Note?" says the old man
"So what do we have here. Mr Richard Kent, Motorsport Engineering student, nothing exactly impressive," says the old man
'I haven't seen anyone with such fascinating soul from your version of Earth in a long time.'
"If you haven't figured it out by now you're already dead and as an agent of a god, it's my job to send your soul to a world of your choosing, so hurry up I have other things to do."
I just sat down listening to this old man telling me I'm dead still wondering if his brain is alright. "Can you please explain better old man? what do you mean I'm dead?."
"You can call me Carter, I find it that you humans relate better to someone that looks like an old man when you die, so that's why look like this" says the old man who I now know as Carter.
"So what world would you like to be born into Mr Richard? and no you can't go back to your world, you've been dead for about 100 years already time moves differently here," says Carter.
"What do you mean agent of a god," I asked remembering what he said a few moments ago. "And how many gods are there?"
"There are thousands of gods out there, even I don't know how many but that doesn't concern you, can you choose the world you want to be born into, I know you don't care you're dead so stop wasting my time Mr Richard," Carter says in with mild irritation all over his face.
"I choose to be reborn in Naruto world," I said to him as that's the only anime I bothered to watch in it's entirety. "Do I get any kind of ability?"
"No you don't, I don't even understand where you humans got the idea you'd get abilities when you are to be reborn. But I have an offer for you, if you're interested that is. If you decline then your rebirth would be entirely based on luck and we both know you don't believe in luck. Are you willing to take that chance Mr Richard?."
Carter replies with a grin on his face as he probably knows I won't let my life hang on luck since he's some kind of otherworldly being or an agent of a god as he said. "So what's the offer then Carter?"
"It's simple Mr Richard the god I work for wants you to be his worker of sorts. In return you'd get a system like ability that has been picked out already for you, a bloodline of your selection of your choice from the Naruto work,any ability you want and two weapons of your choosing, you would have to fulfil certain missions that the system would ask in return. Of course that would only begin after you leave the Naruto world so you're free to not worry about all that for now."
"Why does your god want me to work for him?" I asked Carter
"It's simple Mr Richard, your soul is unique."
"What do you mean Carter?" I asked, slightly confused.
"Your soul possesses both good and evil but you're just in-between, not leaning to any particular side, Mr Richard and that is exactly what the god I work for want, someone that's capable of killing off an entire population if he's bored but would save an entire population as long as it doesn't affect him, someone that's generally not capable of harming others but finds pleasure in harming people, someone that hates helping people but gains pleasure from helping people, the perfect neutral being."
"What would happen to me if I accept but later refuse to do the missions?" I asked Carter
"We both know how bored you're Mr Richard as long as the missions brings you excitement you'd do all of them besides we could kill you but you wouldn't even care so there's no point in going that far and you'd be compensated for every successful mission depending on difficulty of course. Ok Mr Richard we've wasted too much time go ahead and select your ability and bloodline."
"Ok Carter, give me a moment to think of what I want."
"Can I get a list of bloodlines? I have no clue of bloodlines out there other than from Naruto world?" I asked Carter
"It doesn't matter Mr Richard whatever bloodline you select scales up to match which ever world you go to. No matter the bloodline if it's a peak bloodline it would remain a peak bloodline no matter how powerful the world is. That's an exception that was agreed by the gods concerning their respective workers."
"Can you explain better?" I asked Carter
"Fine Mr Richard, I would use the game terms you earthlings seem to understand better. If you have a level 5 bloodline in World A and its the peak bloodline, and then you decide to go to World B which has a peak bloodline of Level 10, your level 5 bloodline automatically scales up to a level 10 bloodline, of course your strength doesn't scale up just your potential so to speak, so if your strength was at level 4 you'd still remain at level 4 but your max level would increase to level 10 from the original level 5. Do you understand me Mr Richard?" Carter replied.
"Yes I do Carter, I select the Otsutsuki bloodline and the ability of Gluttony," I say to Carter
"Ah sneaky Mr Richard, Otsutsuki bloodline with Gluttony combined you'd have no limit to your growth whatsoever. The Otsutsuki bloodline can eat chakra fruits so in theory they can grow limitlessly, of course on its own it nothing impressive as chakra fruits is hard to come by and it takes time to grow, but combined with the ability of gluttony that would let you absorb chakra and make it yours along side whatever special property the chakra contains, of course if you choose to you can even absorb dead bodies to gain the ability but without the gain of increasing your chakra pool, with this you won't have the limits of the Otsutsuki clan. Isn't that right, It won't be as easy as that of course Mr Richard but with time you'd gain different bloodlines. a Devourer of sorts."
"Now let's send you on your way Mr Richard, you'd be born 10 years after Madara and Hashirama during the warring states era. You can create your appearance as you can't be reborn with the appearance from your past life. Ah yes before I forget, you still have to select two weapons of choice, the knowledge on how to use them proficiently comes with your choice so you don't have to worry on who'd teach you if you select weird weapons."
"I want to have a slight resemblance to adult Madara but with my current height, keep my skin colour the same as my past life "(very light skinned African British)", and for weapons I want Sasuke Kusanagi but with a black and red theme for both the blade and sword handle from Naruto Shippuden anime as his sword looks different in Boruto anime, with Madara Gunbai but in black and red," I say to Carter
"That's doable Mr Richard, for your weapons it would be just one weapon but with two different forms so you wouldn't be able to use both of them at the same time, and do not forget you only have the knowledge on how to use the weapons so you still have to learn how to actually wield it. Off you go now Mr Richard."
