[You showed interest in Ninjutsu, started learning it, and soon achieved some results. You mastered the Three Body Technique and several basic-level jutsu.]
[Your talent for Ninjutsu was discovered by your father, who found many Ninjutsu scrolls for you.]
"Huh?"
"This is pretty good~"
"It seems the Hatake family is no longer the pure samurai clan it was during the Warring States Period, but has already begun to transition into a ninja clan."
[Senju Tobirama decided to conduct real combat training to improve the practical abilities of the young ninja trainees.]
[You performed exceptionally well during the training. You excelled in both ninjutsu and taijutsu and were even able to resist the genjutsu of the Uchiha clan.]
"It's outrageous... As expected of the legendary era of Konoha's Twin Super Shadows—a six-year-old kid participating in real combat and facing off against a Sharingan user."
Such things were practically unheard of in today's Konoha.
A six-year-old these days would still be playing in the mud.
[Time passed quickly. You were about to graduate from the Ninja Academy when you received a confession from Utatane Koharu. Your choice is…]
"What the hell? What's going on? That old—uh..."
"She actually confessed to my character?"
Naruto blinked in disbelief, feeling a mix of shock and confusion.
But... should he accept or reject?
What if the character he was playing was like him—addicted to women?
Now, Naruto already understood what the 'Hero's Tomb' meant.
As someone who carried both Uzumaki and Senju bloodlines,
and whose body had been strengthened countless times by the system,
Naruto felt a strange weakness in his legs just thinking about it.
Forget it, just reject her.
It's not my real life anyway, so whatever.
The most important thing now is to be a good tool and keep learning.
"Reject."
[You rejected Utatane Koharu's confession, which made her furious. She suddenly attacked you. You were caught off guard, not expecting a companion to turn on you, and she pinned you against a wall and kissed you wildly for two hours.]
Naruto: "?"
Naruto: "6"
[You found an opportunity and beat up Utatane Koharu.]
Naruto: "???"
Naruto: "666"
If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have chosen this little guy just because of his good looks.
Now look—trouble.
But at least it seems to have calmed down.
[In order to strengthen the unity among major clans, Senju Tobirama decided to take on apprentices. Because of your exceptional talent, he chose you as his student. Your decision is…]
"Senju Tobirama?"
"Wait, that's not right. I wanted to be a disciple of the Big Pillar!"
The Big Pillar was, of course, Senju Hashirama.
And Sasuke was the Second Pillar.
Although the two weren't related by blood and had never even met, their nicknames were oddly similar...
"So what should I do?"
"Let's just ask Tobirama if I can become Hashirama's disciple instead—to learn Sage Jutsu."
[You said that you admired Senju Hashirama and wanted to become his disciple, but Senju Tobirama said Hashirama was unreliable and couldn't teach properly. Your answer is…]
"Tsk~ The Big Pillar is unreliable... but I'll still stick to my choice!"
[You insisted on your decision. Not wanting you to lose a chance to grow stronger, Senju Tobirama introduced you to Senju Hashirama.]
[Senju Hashirama said he only knew Wood Release and didn't have much experience as a teacher. He asked why you wanted him to be your master.]
"Here's the key part!"
"But this Big Pillar guy has a point."
"Hashirama is the kind who uses sheer chakra and destructive ninjutsu to overwhelm his enemies. Strategy becomes meaningless against him."
"So just tell him straight—you want to learn Sage Jutsu!"
[You said you wanted to learn Sage Jutsu, so Senju Hashirama took you to the Shikkotsu Forest and recommended you to Katsuyu, the Great Slug Sage.]
"Nice~"
"Mission complete. Whether this character manages to learn it now depends on luck."
[You began studying Sage Jutsu, but faced great difficulty. Still, you never gave up and stayed in the Shikkotsu Forest.]
[Three years later, you returned, now capable of using Sage Jutsu.]
"Perfect, goal achieved! Now you can use senjutsu."
"But don't end the simulation yet. The stronger the character gets, the more physical enhancement I'll receive."
[You were later challenged by Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzō, and Utatane Koharu, but you defeated them all using Sage Jutsu.]
[You met Tsunade as a child. She was a chubby, adorable little rich girl who loved money. You made her cry, and Uzumaki Mito scolded you for it.]
Naruto: "So Tsunade already existed at that time~"
"I really wanna see what she looked like when she was a kid."
[Uchiha Madara left the village. Senju Hashirama pursued him, leading to the Battle at the Valley of the End. Madara faked his death, while Hashirama returned severely injured and passed away a few days later.]
[With both Hashirama and Madara gone, the ninja world fell into chaos. Senju Tobirama succeeded him as Hokage.]
[You went to the battlefield and fought against ninjas from other nations, quickly earning great merit.]
[To restore peace, Senju Tobirama held a Five Kage Summit to discuss the division of territory and resources.]
[The talks failed to produce results.]
[Senju Tobirama eventually compromised and formed an alliance with the Second Raikage. You were brought along to the ceremony with Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mitokado Homura, Utatane Koharu, Shimura Danzō, Akimichi Torifu, and Uchiha Kagami.]
[During the alliance ceremony, the Gold and Silver Brothers launched a coup, using the Six Paths Tools and the Nine Tails' chakra to attack both the Second Raikage and Tobirama, gravely injuring them.]
[Tobirama retreated with his men but was pursued by the Gold and Silver forces.]
[At the critical moment, Tobirama analyzed the situation and declared that someone needed to stay behind to delay the enemy so the others could escape. You were one of those present. Your choice is…]
"Stay behind?"
"This must be Tobirama's test. If this character is to become strong in the future, he must have real conviction."
"Alright then, I'll choose to stay. That fits his personality."
[You volunteered to stay behind. Your decision stunned Danzō, surprised Sarutobi, and moved Utatane Koharu, who offered to stay with you.]
Naruto: "What the—? This girl really does like this kid!"
[Tobirama didn't allow you or Koharu to stay. He realized Koharu's reason wasn't duty but affection for you. Impressed by your resolve, Tobirama named you the Third Hokage on the spot.]
Seeing this, Naruto recalled everything the original Third Hokage—Sarutobi Hiruzen—had done in the main timeline.
He decided to rely on his character's abilities and take a completely different path, to see how far Konoha could go under a new kind of Hokage.
