Chapter 2

One thousand... points! I felt tears welling up in my eyes...

« Fucking system... » if I had received so much when I arrived in Naruto's world then...

my life would have been so much easier!

That's almost 5 full years of continuous mission!

«Breath, it's nothing... » with a sigh I tried to calm my messy emotions.

I immediately put my ass back on the grass, I had to think for a moment...

In my second life, I didn't want to choose a lineage thinking it would make my job easier, and in the end...

I ended up in Root Anbu against my will...

If it wasn't for the system and the Fuinjutsu then I would have been stuck there indefinitely...

that was also the reason why Danzo had 'recruited' me...

my talent for Fuinjutsu was invaluable to that rat!

It was clearly my fault for underestimating the difficulty of the ninja world, I wouldn't make that mistake again no matter how different it was!

I was allowed two bloodlines/clans, I needed flexibility if I wanted to survive long enough and that in any world but I wasn't in any world...

I was in a world where geniuses were almost running around!

The Marvel universe...

the MCU to be exact.

How did I know? I was the one who decided to come here, I knew the identification of this world from my past memories. (Earth-1999999)

''system, open the shop in the clan and bloodline category,'' I called out and all the bloodlines of Konoha village were displayed on a list...

scrolling down the list long enough a feeling of greed took hold of me the more bloodlines I saw the more I wanted them!

« It's no use being too stingy... » I shouted to myself mentally.

-

"I hope I made the right decision...'' I speak as I looked at my shopping basket from the system.

''Confirm purchase.'' I immediately said I didn't want to stand around contemplating it any longer...

[Confirming a purchase of 500 Nin points.

Waiting for confirmation of merger and absorption of lineage...]

I ordered without missing a beat, "Start the fusion and absorption...".

An itch appeared in my whole body within a second!

And very quickly it became painful and even unbearable, but due to my training in the Anbu Root, I could not faint...

I could have sworn I had foam coming out of my mouth as I squirmed on the floor...

I didn't know how long it lasted but long enough for the sun to set.

Finally, a sound brought me out of my current mental and physical torture.

[Congratulations, you have merged and absorbed the Uchiha and Nara bloodlines].

(I know Nara isn't a bloodline per se, but I considered it so because of their superior intellect).

''Ye...yeah...I know...thanks.'' I struggled to speak but I still had enough self-awareness to answer.

Struggling to stand up on my two legs which started to shake, I gritted my teeth and started to move, I couldn't stay here or in the same place for too long...

Walking slowly, I caught a glimpse of my new home, laughing at the irony, I entered the seemingly uninhabited cave to get some much-needed sleep.

-

« What the fuck already?! » I mentally shouted as I caught a glimpse of a bald woman in an orange dress sitting in a corner of the cave, drinking tea...

''finally awake I see...'' were the first words of the women. ''uh? Yes... Good morning?" I could have been aggressive but I knew the power of this person, and against her, I could do nothing with my current strength...

''Some tea perhaps? It's very good, perfect for transit.'' she offered me a cup.

''...'' I was speechless at the time... what the fuu ?!

"Not a talker, tell me what are your intentions towards this world?" and off we went...

"What?" yeah, I played dumb.

''Not with me, young man? Oh, I see, your body is young but... not your soul, how interesting, but not as interesting as that energy you have,'' she said making me freak out inside.

Sighing, I quickly realized that there was no point in lying. ''yeah... you can say that... so what are you?''

''I'm what you might call, a protectress? Yes a protector, I protect the reality of this planet as well as threats from other dimensions, such as being like you...

I repeat, what are your intentions towards this world.'' a small smirk made my whole body shiver, this woman was way more dangerous than Danzo!

''Well, first of all, I don't have any intentions or anything, at least nothing malicious,'' I answered honestly, then resumed. ''I'm sort of running away from my reality, dimensions, call it what you want... in short, I'm looking for a place that isn't ruled by violence, as well as blood.''

a raised eyebrow later, she began to speak. ''an asylum then, too bad for you, but I'm afraid you've got the wrong 'place' unless you're willing to...'' I cut her off.

''defend the planet? That depends, what's in it for me?" I asked seriously.

she giggled. ''Absolutely nothing.' was her almost immediate response.

I sighed immediately as I realized the stupid thing I had just done, the thing being, gave her confirmation that I had the power to do something about it or a way to help anyway. ''What am I going to fight? Only if I help, and only if...''

another small smile appeared on his monkish face. ''It's up to you to find out in time, your coming here was not written, I can't tell you more.''

''I wanted to live in this cave quietly...'' I didn't have time to finish my sentence, he had interrupted me.

''We both know that's a lie," she said with a smile.

I sighed again. ''Okay, maybe I was going to make some easy money, no big deal. ''

''now that's more like it, it's time, you're clearly not a threat, but I'm counting on your help if things get... uncontrollable.'' opening a portal that led to a square she entered and closed it behind her...

Once I had confirmation that she was no longer there, I went into a meditative position, I needed to understand why...

Her presence here was clearly not to gauge me, but to give me a warning,

this world has powers beyond your imagination...

that's the message I got from her.

If she had wanted to know my intentions, she would not have revealed herself while I was asleep, when I was most vulnerable.

Perhaps it was paranoia? But in this world as in my old one, if you are not paranoid, then you are either gullible or naive or both!

Did I already regret coming here, absolutely not!

Here the threats came once every two or three years, there it was every day!
