Naruto: Climbing Ranks to Rule the Ninja World! - Chapter 2

Chapter 2: Get the Prize, Delicious Bingliang Wan

Shihouin Naraku hurried home amid the enthusiastic greetings of many ninjas.

His mind was now completely focused on the system that had suddenly appeared, and he couldn’t wait to figure out everything about the system.

Returning to his home and entering a quiet room, Naraku sat cross-legged and began to ask in a low voice:

“system?”

[Ding! The promotion system is at your service! ]

Hearing the system’s voice ringing in his mind again, Naraku was relieved that it was not his hallucination.

Next, he immediately devoted himself to the system and quickly understood it.

As the name suggests, the promotion system is naturally related to promotion.

No matter what Shihouin Naraku’s position in Konoha Village is, as long as there is a change, he will be eligible for the lottery here in the system.

If you are demoted, you will get a fixed chance to draw the lottery. If you are just transferred to a different position, you will get two chances to draw the lottery.

Only by getting promoted can you get the most lottery qualifications.

Depending on the size of the position, you can get a minimum of three draws and a maximum of five draws.

Once you have the qualifications to draw the lottery, you can randomly draw various powerful treasures, abilities, and other things from all over the world in the system.

“Then let me see what good stuff there is!”

As soon as Shihouin Naraku finished speaking, an extremely huge lottery wheel appeared in his mind, and a wide variety of magical items all came into view.

“What are these things…”

“Ninjutsu, genjutsu, Byakugan, Sharingan…”

“Tailed Beast Chakra? All of this? Ten Tails?”

“This is ridiculous. We already have Ten Tails. Why not just add Ōtsutsuki Kaguya…”

Shihouin Naraku’s eyes kept scanning the large number of prizes, and finally he muttered to himself.

“Not just the Hokage?”

“Devil Fruit? This is… Zanpakutō?”

“And Dragon Slayer Magic… Wait, Kaio-ken?”

“Senzu beans, somersault cloud…”

Shihouin Naraku opened his eyes wide and could hardly see it all because there were too many good things in front of him!

“I really want them all!”

Shihouin Naraku admitted that he lost his composure because the system was so unexpectedly powerful!

As a Jōnin of Konohagakure, and especially as a direct disciple of Tsunade, Shihouin Naraku not only possesses top-notch medical ninjutsu, but is also very powerful in his own right.

But even Naraku himself admitted that his strength was at most at the forefront of many Konoha Village Jōnin, and there was still a gap between him and the strongest few Jōnin.

It’s because the Shihouin clan doesn’t have a powerful bloodline limit. Naraku also knows that this is his limit.

But now it is different. The emergence of the system will help Shihouin Naraku break his limits and allow him to truly possess the strength to compete with the top ninjas in the ninja world.

A genuine smile appeared on his handsome face. Naraku looked at the various magical items in the roulette wheel in his mind and spoke:

“System, how many draws do I have now?”

【Host has twelve remaining draws! 】

[Friendly reminder: It is more likely to get magical items when you draw ten times in a row! ]

Naraku has obtained seven lottery qualifications for the positions of Deputy Director of the Medical Department and Deputy Captain of Konoha Anbu. With the five chances of the novice gift package given by the system, he now has twelve lottery chances.

“Since it’s easier to get good stuff when you draw ten times in a row, let’s start, ten times in a row!”

[Ding! Do you want to start the first ten-pull? ]

“Open!”

As Shihouin Naraku finished speaking, the huge roulette wheel in front of him began to spin.

The pointer on the roulette wheel passed over the prizes that excited Shihouin Naraku, and he was reluctant to blink at this moment.

The numerous magical treasures almost dazzled Naraku.

【bite……】

[Congratulations to Host for receiving the following rewards…]

【1. Excellent Shuriken*5! 】

[2. Delicious Bingliangwan*5! ]

【3. One thousand taels (paper money)! 】

【4. Fire Style·Head hard! 】

【5. Fire Style·Extinguish the fire! 】

【6. One hundred taels (coins)! 】

【7. Lightning Style·Thunder! 】

[8. Chakra seven attributes (fire, water, wind, thunder, earth, yin, yang)! ]

【9. My Fruit!】

【10. Water Style·Explosive Water Waves! 】

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for mastering four ninjutsu! ]

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for completing the seven Chakra attributes! ]

……

Shihouin Naraku sat cross-legged in a quiet room, and suddenly a bunch of things appeared out of thin air on the low table in front of him.

Scattered banknotes and coins, clinking shurikens, wrapped military pills, and most importantly, a strange-looking fruit.

“This is the Devil Fruit! The Mera-mera Fruit!”

Naraku paid no attention to the other things and reached out to take the Mera-mera Fruit in his hand.

[Mera-mera Fruit: After eating the fruit, you gain the ability to control fire, and any part of your body can turn into fire! (The seawater in the Hokage world does not contain special substances, so it will not affect the Host.)]

“good!”

The system’s prompts made Naraku even more satisfied with the Mera-mera Fruit in his hand.

In fact, what he values ​​most is the elemental ability of the Mera-mera Fruit, which is something Naraku needs very much.

You have to know that although most ninjas in the Hokage world are powerful, their physiques are weak. Sometimes even a small hidden weapon can take down a powerful ninja.

Naraku, who participated in the Ninja World War, had witnessed with his own eyes that a powerful ninja was killed by a hidden weapon that hit his vitals.

Therefore, the elementalization of Mera-mera Fruit is very important.

“vomit–”

Shihouin Naraku took a bite of the Mera-mera Fruit, and a strange, indescribable taste immediately filled his mouth, making him almost vomit.

“This taste… Ugh… It’s so disgusting!”

Even though he was prepared, Naraku was defeated by the horrible taste of the Devil Fruit.

After a while, Naraku opened his palm.

With a puff, a burning flame suddenly ignited in Naraku’s palm.

Looking at the flames dancing in his palm, Naraku was very satisfied.

“The first time, there was Mera-mera Fruit. After that…”

At this moment, Naraku made up his mind.

He wants a promotion!

Work hard to get promoted!

From now on, no one can stand in his way of promotion!

Naraku, whose strength has greatly increased, immediately began to experiment with the ability of the Mera-mera Fruit. Of course, the experiment could not be carried out in the room.

……

boom!!!

Gravel flew everywhere, and the flames from the explosion spread suddenly, erupting with extremely powerful force.

A hot breath spread instantly!

After a while, the test site deep in the forest finally calmed down.

Shihouin Naraku clenched his fists, looked at the test site which had become a mess, and nodded with satisfaction.

“This level of improvement is almost the same even if it hasn’t reached Kage-level!”

“The most important thing is the power of Fire Style…”

At this moment, Naraku can proudly say that there is no one in the entire ninja world who is better at Fire Style than him!

Before he got the Mera-mera Fruit, his strongest points besides medical ninjutsu were Fire Style and Water Style.

Especially the Fire Style, there weren’t many people in the entire Konoha Village who could be said to be better at Fire Style than him.

And now with the Mera-mera Fruit, not only is his Fire Style more powerful, but most importantly, he no longer needs to make hand seals to release any Fire Style!

Just like First Hokage Senju Hashirama, he clapped his hands and whatever he shouted came true!

Of course, Senju Hashirama unleashes Wood Style, while Naraku unleashes Fire Style!

For the next day, Naraku was familiarizing himself with his rapidly increasing strength.

Only strength is the foundation of everything.
