Golden apples

Setting aside the more common techniques, the world of Naruto had a mix of strange techniques like Hidan's curse, the Uzumaki sealing jutsu, the Kurama clan's Genjutsu, the artifacts of the Sage of the Six Paths, or the Rinnegan. These were potential threats to his carefree lifestyle, and not knowing how they would affect him, he wasn't willing to risk it, so he requested not to be affected by such things, consuming another two percent.

Sure, the possibility of Hidan getting a drop of his blood was "impossible" with his elemental body, but he saw no reason not to ensure the matter. What if there was another type of curse that used a portrait of him as a medium instead of blood? In this world, a little paranoia can help you stay alive for a long time.

From the moment he accepted that he was in the world of Naruto, he knew he needed to change his mindset or he would end up like Yahiko. It's not like it was an excuse to start exterminating villages and drinking human blood, but he needed to take a more adaptable approach, in the vein of Orochimaru.

He knew some characters and their stories, but it's not like he had friendships with them or anything. Just go with the flow, explore as you wish, save when you feel like it, and kill when you're threatened.

And whoever asked for Enel's body forgot to request the full Haki package and instead requested that the consumption of physical strength using the power of the devil fruit be reduced to zero. So, apart from a devil fruit ability with no weakness that also wouldn't tire him, he only possessed the "Mantra" ability, which made him the equivalent of a sensor ninja. He didn't even have a golden staff with him.

He had some means to defend himself, a place to live, and a new world to explore, but he felt like something was still missing, and with only one percent of compensation remaining, he could only ask for something small.

So, he asked for apples. The power to summon the most delicious apples from the world whenever he pleased! Well, it seems that thinking about Tony Akimichi influenced him a bit...

But it turns out that this was so simple that it wasn't enough to consume the remaining one percent, so he raised the requirements a bit.

"Then I want golden apples."

In countless myths and legends, these apples had similar characteristics in common: they could cure ailments and diseases while increasing one's lifespan. There were also variants that granted forbidden knowledge, increased fertility, enhanced beauty, bestowed immense physical strength upon the consumer, and more. They were so famous that they were even used in some video games!

But he went from falling short to going overboard, so after some back and forth, he settled for two types of apples. The most delicious apples could be of different types, depending on whether he wanted a sweeter, more sour, juicier, or crunchier apple. They were also perfect for making juice, jam, pie, or ice cream.

Meanwhile, the golden apples retained only the two most well-known effects, which were healing and extending one's lifespan by a year per consumed apple. They were essentially the ultimate panacea. Poison, cancer, congenital defects, blindness, and anything else one could think of would be healed by eating a golden apple. At the same time, not only would the consumer's lifespan increase by a year, but they would also have a rejuvenated body, kept at its prime.

Of course, he made sure to request that these were delicious as well.

Silence.

"All right, I have two days until I receive my Sky Island, so I think I can take a walk and see the surroundings. I don't even know what time period I'm in. Hmm, should I use my old name, come up with a new one, or use Enel's?"

I got up and looked around, then began walking in a random direction before feeling something strange in my pants. I held up my waist and looked down.

"Well, I think I know half the reason why Enel thought he was a god. And here I thought earlobes were exaggerated. Congratulations to my future wife."

Wait, I think in this world polygamy is common if you have the ability, right? No matter, let's take things slow.

I get lost in my thoughts as I walk and tread on the snow. It's a strange feeling; I can feel how cold it is, but after walking a few minutes, I don't feel like my feet are cold. Not only that, every time I step on a sharp rock or a splintered stick, it just tickles.

I'll have to get used to my new body for a while, as the legs are not the same as I had before, and I cover more distance with the same steps.

Would people be scared when they see me now?

I mean, with how big I am, along with the fact that I'm only wearing pants in this weather, I think I'd give anyone quite a shock.

"Wait a moment," I suddenly thought of a possible oversight. "In this place, they speak Japanese. Do I know how to speak Japanese now?"

It would be terribly tedious if the first thing I had to do in my new life was find someone willing to teach me an entirely new language, spoken, read, and written.

"Oh, I see a cabin beyond the trees; let's take a look and find out."

Am I talking to myself too often?

I don't know if it's because of my new mindset or if it's also a remnant of Enel.

"I never liked my previous name, and I'm not good at coming up with new ones, so I'll just take Enel's name from now on," he decided as he walked towards the cabin.

I see several people entering it. Perhaps it's a hunters' cabin where they rest?

I saw some white rabbits, but I have no intention of hunting them. Gutting them, cleaning them, and roasting them is too much work, and if I use my abilities, I don't even know if there will be ashes left, as I don't have good control yet.

If I get hungry, I can summon an apple.

"NOOOOOOO!"

"Eh?"

I think I heard a child's scream, but what is happening before my eyes is also worth paying attention to. The entire cabin is suddenly impaled with ice spikes as tall as me. I see the shadow of a child who seems stunned coming out of the place. What exactly happened?
