This Naruto Is a Player!

Back home.

Naruto stealthily glanced at the Nine-Tails. Seeing it happily playing in the training space's water, he breathed a sigh of relief.

This next thing was his biggest secret, and it wasn't convenient for Kurama to know about it for now. No other reason, just fear of the Nine-Tails misunderstanding. The Nine-Tails absolutely detested the Uchiha clan, especially Uchiha Madara; it was a deep-seated hatred.

Once the Nine-Tails discovered that he, Naruto, had the Mangekyo, it wouldn't just be his father's hat turning a little green. His father was fine, being gone and probably unwatched, and besides, who's to say Naruto couldn't have some Uchiha blood in his ancestry? It was just the Nine-Tails that wouldn't be easy to fool.

He opened the interface and started adding points. Er, adding experience points.

[Sharingan: 9600/10000 (Three Tomoe)]

Naruto took out the freshly acquired 500 experience points and directly added them. The experience points instantly maxed out, with some even overflowing.

[You have met the activation conditions for the Mangekyo Sharingan. Drawing Mangekyo abilities for you from the ability pool.]

[Hint: Strong will can increase the probability of acquiring corresponding abilities.]

"What does that mean?"

Naruto was utterly confused, perhaps nine-tenths confused, by this hint. He could understand "drawing Mangekyo abilities"—it probably meant gaining an extra usable skill with these eyes.

But what did "strong will can increase the probability of acquiring corresponding abilities" mean? Could he make a wish with this thing?

After confirming he correctly understood the meaning of the sentence, Naruto immediately started brainstorming furiously.

What should he wish for? What could make him stronger?

Time?

Space?

No, the strongest had to be fundamental forces.

"Oh god, no. Oh system, that's not right either." For a moment, Naruto didn't know what to call this thing.

"Oh, God of Games."

He finally settled on this title and quickly wished, "Please give me any one of the four fundamental forces, any one will do!"

Right after saying it, Naruto suddenly remembered that even though this game had flashy functions, it seemed to be just a game after all. This request seemed a bit too grand!

With that thought, Naruto immediately added, "If there are no fundamental forces, then something similar will do!"

[Combining Mangekyo abilities from the ability pool.]

[Suitable combination drawn, generating...]

[You have acquired Mangekyo Sharingan:]

[Left Eye (Attraction) + Right Eye (Repulsion): You can freely control the attraction/repulsion of individuals/areas. You can also control attraction/repulsion with up to 4 black orbs, freely selecting targets, interfering with natural objects, and absorbing/repelling any physical ninjutsu.]

[Durability: Each use consumes 0.5% durability. When durability is depleted, you will go blind.]

[Cooldown: None]

[Usage Restrictions: None]

[Please name your Mangekyo Sharingan]

Naruto stared blankly at the description, still somewhat disbelieving.

Attraction + Repulsion?

His wish had actually come true. And, looking at the ability description, was the Mangekyo really this strong?

Naruto suddenly realized, no wonder Uchiha Madara, with just this, could fight the First Hokage to a standstill. The Mangekyo was simply too powerful.

"The Uchiha clan truly shouldn't be underestimated."

Naruto wasn't even sure if all his years of training could defeat his own Mangekyo. Attraction + Repulsion, capable of deflecting all physical attacks, with no cooldown—how could he fight it? With his head?

This ability felt a bit too buggy.

As for the names...

Naruto instantly decided.

Left eye = Newton.

Right eye = Einstein.

[Your naming has been confirmed. If you are unsatisfied, you can spend a rename coupon to change the name.]

[Your Mangekyo has awakened. You have additionally unlocked the Mangekyo Store. Detected that you possess SSSSSS talent, the Rinnegan evolution path has been additionally unlocked for you. Once the progress bar is full, collect the necessary Six Paths Chakra/purchase an additional upgrade pack to unlock the Rinnegan.]

[Hint: Excessive use of the Mangekyo Sharingan can lead to blindness. Please quickly purchase the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.]

A product link abruptly popped up below the hint. This blatant pay-to-win notification, even though Naruto was already used to the game's nature, still choked him up.

How strange, couldn't he just upgrade it through leveling?

He looked at his original skill again.

[Sharingan: 10100/100000 (Mangekyo → Rinnegan)]

Good heavens, there was no upgrade path at all; he could only buy it with money.

"What's the Rinnegan? And what's Six Paths Chakra?"

The more he learned, the more ignorant Naruto felt. This game—no, this world—always managed to throw out things he didn't know.

Ignoring the unknown Rinnegan for now, Naruto decided to check out the store. After all, the Mangekyo was so strong, he couldn't not use it. So, to avoid going blind, he could only click the link.

He looked.

Damn, 1,000,000 ryo!!!

That's 100,000 yen.

How was this any different from outright robbery?

Oh.

Naruto suddenly remembered that he wasn't really poor anymore; he was no longer the boy who could only dream of reaching a hundred ryo.

However, this price was indeed very expensive! Even if he fiercely sold Family Buckets every month, it would still take him six or seven months to earn that much money.

How much did the Nine-Tails sell for? 2,000,000 ryo.

After two months of studying and reading extracurricular books, Naruto already knew that the Nine-Tails was one of the world's nine tailed beasts, and the strongest. How could this Eternal Mangekyo be worth half the price of a Kurama?

But.

After a moment's thought, Naruto realized he had to buy this thing. If he didn't, he'd face the risk of blindness. He could only make the old man suffer a little longer, make him sell more Family Buckets.

Cough, cough.

Perhaps the time skip was too fast, leading to this lack of introduction. The 'old man' was Naruto's first Wood Clone, the founder of the previously mentioned 'Old Godfather Fast Food.' He was an old man with silver hair, strong and meticulously managed, styled like the KFC Colonel.

However, whether it was due to two months of not returning to his main body, or perhaps a split personality, the old man had now fallen into deep role-playing. In his perception, he wasn't Naruto's clone, but an 80-year-old man, the actual founder of 'Old Godfather Fast Food.'

If Naruto hadn't confirmed that the old man diligently worked every day, handing over all his earnings without keeping a single extra coin, Naruto would have considered dispelling this clone.

But this clone was simply too capable.

In a busy shop, all the work was entirely handled by the old man alone. Moreover, his vitality, his smile, his kindness, and his character were beloved by everyone in the village. This led to the fast food restaurant's daily revenue skyrocketing, with such a small shop generating so much profit.

Naruto once suspected that this clone was so capable, perhaps because he also received the blessing of the SSSSSS talent? Currently, it seemed very likely.

Back to the main topic.

Closing the product page, Naruto opened the newly added Mangekyo Store. Tsukuyomi, Kotoamatsukami, Amaterasu, Kagutsuchi, Kamui, Yata Mirror, and other Mangekyo abilities were all displayed on the shelves.

Buy now, use now, no need to replace eyes, just add usable skills to the existing eyes. The price was uniformly 1,000,000 ryo.

Before opening it, Naruto thought it was some kind of 'Mangekyo Mall,' but after opening it, he realized it really was a 'Mangekyo' store.

Looking at the introductions and descriptions, Naruto found these abilities to be one more bizarre than the last.

'As expected of the Uchiha clan, no wonder they're Konoha's foremost clan,' Naruto genuinely sighed.

To be able to harvest so much from a pair of eyes like this indirectly showed how popular these eyes were in the game.

"As expected of the protagonist." For some reason, Naruto suddenly thought of his rival, Sasuke.

What would his Mangekyo ability be?
