Naruto: Path towards Godhood

Chapter 3: Ninja Journey Begins



Three Days Later;

Ken moved his fingers and finished the hand signs in less than two seconds.

[Fire Style- Great Fireball Jutsu]

As he released a massive ball of flame out of his mouth, his hand collapsed, and he fell to his knees.

Bang!

The massive fireball, the size of a mini-van, crashed atop the pond, turning the water into mist.

Huff! Huff! Huff!

Ken started panting heavily until he heard a strange ringtone on his head.

[Ding! Congratulations on completing your First Task]

[You received 200 Points]

As he got this notification, Ken tried to relax on the ground. He only had five percent of his Chakra remaining.

Thanks to his regular training, he completed the task by releasing three Fireballs on the third day.

And now, he had successfully used Fireball a hundred times.

As he recovered his mental strength, he took out Food Pill and ate it. This food pill granted him enough Chakra to refill his Chakra Reserves.

This pill was quite expensive and also risky to use regularly, so he couldn't use it during the training.

After he settled down, he opened the main panel and thought for a moment.

He could use these points for many things, but what truly could make a difference was something like breaking his limits.

So, he put 100 points in his Uchiha Bloodline and one hundred points in his Chakra.

As soon as he did that, the panel changed instantly.

Genjutsu- None

Points- Zero

Task- Practice Fireball Jutsu five hundred times- Reward (1000 Points)]

When he saw this new panel, he immediately got distracted by the changes that occurred in his body.

His physical body began to slowly grow stronger while his mental strength exploded exponentially.

Just as he felt that he also felt a sting in his eyes, as he looked around, he found that the world around him was much more clear.

Not only that, he could even see the flight of flying insects and ants crawling nearly a hundred meters away.

He instantly stood up and walked toward the pond, only to realize that his eyes hadn't evolved yet.

They were still one Tomoe Sharingan.

Despite that, he didn't feel bad. He quickly started extracting Chakra by merging his physical energy and spiritual energy.

And, feeling the immense amount of Chakra flowing through Chakra Pathway, he realized just how ridiculous this upgrade was.

But he also realized something.

He was having a hard time controlling this Chakra, and it was mostly spiritual.

He realized this improvement had nothing to do with Chakra itself but rather his mental energy.

Realizing this, he stared at the panel for a moment and muttered.

"So, my Chakra won't improve until I reach a thousand points. That's gonna take a while. But, now I should be able to use Sharingan while constantly using Fireball to improve both at the same time."

"Still, I need to find out how it calculates the points for Sharingan. My Fire Chakra has improved as well. This is a good news for me."

Ken nodded his head with satisfaction and started performing hand signs. At the same time, he also opened his Sharingan.

[Fire Release- Great Fireball Jutsu]

As he released a fireball out of his mouth, Ken focused his eyes on the panel.

As he expected, Fireball got one more point, while Sharingan didn't get any. So, he didn't shut his Sharingan and instead waited.

After a minute, he realized nothing seemed to have changed, which made him frown. So, he finally stopped using Sharingan.

He still hadn't figured out this part of the system, so he needed to focus on something else.

Today was the day to meet his Team Instructor.

So, after returning to his house, he packed up Kunai, Shuriken, and Ninja Wires inside a pouch and put on the back of his waist and his legs before running out of the house.

He quickly reached his academy, where most of his classmates were waiting for their Class Division.

As they waited, Momoto Sensei arrived and began calling their names and group.

[Team 25 will be Nakamura Mito, Ito Jenzi, and Uchiha Ken. Your team instructor will be Yuhi Shinku]

Ken was surprised to be on the team with Mito and Jenzi. Although he didn't know them personally, they were still his friends.

Jenzi didn't hate him for his looks, while Mito wasn't a hardcore fangirl.

Mito was a young girl with brown hair and pink pupils. She had a round and chubby face.

She was nearly as tall as Ken, who was only four feet and eight inches tall.

Jenzi was a bit shorter than both of them. While he looked small, he had many muscles for someone his age.

"Please take care of me!"

"Please take care of me!"

Jenzi and Mito immediately rushed next to him. After all, they were quite excited to be in a team with a Uchiha.

Not to mention, Ken wasn't an arrogant person.

Ken smiled at them and said.

"Please take care of me!"

After that, they waited for the teacher to finish calling every single team. Soon, one by one, Jonin Instructors began to walk in and take their teams outside.

Soon, a middle-aged man with Jonin attire and a sword strapped to his back walked inside. He had black hair and strange ringed red eyes.

He wore his Forehead protector as a bandana and slightly longer sleeves. The flak jacket was the same as other Jonin, which appeared green with the Uzumaki symbol on the back.

"Team 25, follow me!"

As he called their name, he turned around and left the room.

Ken and his team stood up and immediately followed after him. As they ran toward the training grounds, Shinku began to increase his speed.

Ken had no problem following him since his Chakra had grown significantly.

But Jenzi and Mito were having trouble. Despite that, they had the mentality to become a ninja, so they endured.

When they reached an empty training ground, Shinku stopped and turned around.

"Alright, since we are going to be a team, let's start with a simple introduction. I'll go first."

Ken and the others nodded.

"My name is Yuhi Shinku. I like training the future generations of the leaf and playing with my daughter. I dislike the traitors. My dream is to keep Konoha safe."

"Next, let's start with you."

Shinku pointed at Jenzi as he finished introducing himself.

"My name is Ito Jenzi. I like good food and hate food that doesn't taste good. I want to be a Jonin."

Hearing his introduction, Shinku nodded. Ken and Mito were surprised by his dream since this was the first time they heard him talking about it.

After him, Mito spoke.

"My name is Nakamura Mito. I love sweets and hate disgusting people. My goal is to become a powerful ninja just like Tsunade-sama."

Shino nodded and looked at Ken, who started introducing himself.

"My name is Uchiha Ken. I love training and getting stronger. I hate people who put a righteous face to commit the worst crimes. My dream is to become the Strongest Person in the world."

His original dream wasn't this. His original dream was to become the strongest Uchiha. Even though he didn't have talent, he still had the ambition.

But when he received those dreams, he realized just how low his vision was.

He still liked the identity of the ninja, but he didn't want to remain a ninja. If he could create a new profession in the future, he would do anything to leave the profession of Ninja.

Not because it was dangerous but rather because it wasn't something he would want to do.

He saw a new future, path, and even a new destination for this world.

Although it might be too far away, it was something to chase after.

Shinku was surprised by his introduction, not at his dreams or likes but rather at his dislikes.

As someone who has been Jonin and a ninja for quite a long time, he has dealt with a lot of hypocrisy and scums who are protected due to their status in the world, village, or country.

But, for someone like Ken to voice his dislike or even hatred toward those people, he couldn't fathom what kind of experience Ken went through.

Not knowing that Ken's entire perspective as a Uchiha or a Ninja had been completely flipped on its head due to his dreams, Shinku thought Ken had some secret dark past that nobody knew about.

But he didn't dwindle over it. After all, he was here to be their Jonin Instructor, not a babysitter.

"Since introductions are finished, let's get to the main point. Although you have graduated from the academy, you still aren't ready to become a Genin until you pass my test."

"And, my test is simple. Attack me with everything you've got and force me to use C-Rank Jutsu."
