Void

Darkness, all I saw was darkness, pitch black, the void itself swirling around me, a moment later I realized

"Who am I and where am I?"

As if on cue a light appeared in the dark, shining my eyes and grabbing my attention

"Child, looks like you have awoken"

"Am I dead?"

"Unfortunately yes"

"Do you have any questions before I purify and create you anew in your world?"

"I'm tired of my previous world but can I travel to a new world instead or reset my timeline?"

"I guess you're aware, just how much has your world progressed? Anyway I'll think about it later as I've got many appointments today so where?"

"Is it fine If I can chose where I want?

"Worry not my dear, I can hear your thoughts and emotions, so which will it be? Traveling back in time to your earth or going to one of your favorite worlds?"

I was excited getting the first-hand experience of all the Novels I've read, and wanting to do better than most beta characters or those who had the potential but didn't use it, before I answered her, A question hit me again.

"But why? And before that Who am I? And Who are you? and by you, Your Name?"

"Stop asking me questions and answer mine first"

"Well I guess I would want to be reborn into Narutoverse if that isn't a problem with you?"

"All right, now where were we? Oh yes your name was 'Minakami Ryujin"

I finally remembered, yes my name was Ryujin, people called me Jin or Ryu.

"Why have you called me here?"

"I'd say I was bored and despite you being average, I took an interest in you as for why maybe next time I'll tell you, enough of the boring details My dear Ryu, what do you want? Imagine this being your reward for saving those children and dedicating your life to the orphanage"

"Is there a catch for me being reincarnated?"

"None"

"Limits?"

"If there is a need"

"Fine, I want to go to Naruto, and surprise me

"I see, that shall be arranged then"

"Why?"

"Well if you wanna die faster I'll give it to you"

"I was never the one to back down from a challenge anyway."

"Interesting indeed, I'll give you a bonus instead"

"Then I want to have the Uzumaki Bloodline as well as fast learning capabilities"

"I see talent in Fuinjutsu for short as well as a huge chakra pool, okay I accept"

The being in front of me mumbled as it took out a journal from who knows where and began writing.

"I'm a Goddess remember that, what else do you want?"

"Then I want to be born during the Nine-tails gets released! And don't put me in a position where the Nine tails could kill me while I'm being born! And before you throw me somewhere desolate where I may also get killed, I want to be in Konoha!"

"You're very choosy but if this is what you want then I shall give it to you"

As I was conversing, I felt proud that I did not get swindled by this Goddess or is it just me or this Goddess is just that bored.

"All right, now on your way I have many more things to do the rest is in your hands Ryu dear"

"Ah wait!"

"10 seconds"

"I want to look like me, I was fat back then and this time can you at least give me a body that won't at least get fat?"

"No, you have to put in the hard work if you want to have a body like that"

"Thank you oh before I forget you forgot to tell me your name!"

"Invidia, now off you go!"

"Thank you Invidia-san!"

After that conversation I blacked out and saw nothing again

"Was it alright Invidia, I saw you enjoying yourself in a long time"

Out from the void a voice was heard "Luxuria, what a surprise but why are you here?"

"His taste in looks was, well good enough for me to notice, but why him?"

"Well, you could say that he lacks what I am, and that before I became who I am, I guess I saw myself in Him"

"Ara-ara our Invidia taking an interest in a human child"

"I hope he does not disappoint, I am envy after all"

"We will see fufu, I think I saw you giving him something more than he asked"

"Oh, to think you saw it, well it will help him but I've put on a limit on it so It won't be too boring"

"Come on let's not bother anymore I don't want you to interfere more than this"

"I know now who's the next person I'm gonna reincarnate? what about we reincarnate him into a slime or a spider this time?"

As the Gods were conversing meanwhile Ryu who had been reincarnated

"Where Am I? Why is it black again? Am i hearing screams?"

Before I could think properly I saw lights that blinded me again.

"Hurry! The delivery is done lets get out"

"Wait my child!"

"Bring the Child and Akemi! You hold on Akemi, once we're on the evacuation site we'll finish it properly" said the Doctor as we were rushed out of a bed, I guess Chakra does wonders huh.

"So my Mom's name is Akemi?"

I cried since I was still a baby I saw nurses and doctors rushing and helping my mother evacuate

Finally! I can start my Ninja life! but I hope to survive the night

As Ryu was observing he saw a familiar figure, one that should not be on the night of the attack of the Kyubi.

"Calm down dear, Mommy is here" Akemi cried not knowing what tonight would bring as she followed after Tsunade

"Mom is beautiful" she has white hair and beautiful green eyes, guess Invidia-san did it huh?

"Shh everything is all right Ryu" she said while putting me to sleep, "It's all right mom won't leave you alone"

"Akemi once we reach the shelter I want you to create a barrier, I know this is hard since you just gave birth but please!

"All right Tsunade, I'll do what I can, bring back Kushina alive so I can tell her to screw herself!

I cried aloud at first but after awhile she calmed me down despite all the chaos around but then I realized something was wrong.

As I was in deep thought suddenly I heard

[Ding!]

[ Synchronizing with host ]

"A system?"

I hear that familiar voice again.

"It's just a basic system that tracks your progress so You'll know your strengths, just a menu nothing much"

"Thanks, It's better than nothing"

"Take care I hope you'll survive long enough and get ready"

"Why?"

I blacked out again when I heard another explosion, I didn't know what had happened all I know the last thing I saw was my mother putting me in a basket as she did some hand seals somewhere, of course I couldn't see anything just her figure.

Shortly after I heard another small cry and a figure running towards the direction where I was, I saw my mother instantly leave my vision shortly I heard a voice, one I was not familiar with then a new figure appeared in front me, needless to say I was shocked

"Kushina?"
