(The harem includes: Mito Uzumaki, Tsunade, Kushina, Mikoto Uchiha, Konan, Rin Nohara, Kurenai Yuhi, Mei Terumi, Samui, Kurotsuchi, Hinata Hyuga, Hanabi Hyuga, Shion, Kaguya Otsutsuki, and nearly 100 other female characters who have appeared in Naruto.)
(Brain Storage)
Year 13 of Konoha.
Heavy rain fell, and Konoha Village was shrouded in a sorrowful atmosphere.
Led by a woman dressed entirely in black, a large group of villagers mourned a middle-aged man inside a coffin. Rain lashed the woman's face, making it impossible to distinguish between rain and tears.
The man lying in the coffin was the one who brought about the end of the Warring States period.
Hashirama Senju.
The funeral lasted for several days.
But just as everyone was mourning the God of Shinobi, a mysterious visitor from another world quietly descended upon Konoha Village.
At that moment, in a boudoir within the Senju clan's territory, a spatial rift suddenly opened, and a figure fell out.
"Thump—"
The person landed directly on the ground.
"Ouch, what's going on?"
A bewildered Hoshino was completely confused.
He didn't understand why, just a moment ago he was in his own little house, looking at the newly released 18+ Naruto comic on his phone,
he was suddenly sucked away by a black rift!
And then he found himself in this unknown room, clearly not his own little house.
He surveyed the room's decor, immediately recognizing it as a woman's boudoir.
"Not only a boudoir, but the decor also seems to be Japanese."
His first thought was that he'd been transported to Japan?
But when he saw the human-faced statue on the distant cliff outside the window, he immediately realized it wasn't just a simple matter of being transported to Japan.
"I've actually been transported to the world of Naruto?"
His expression could only be described as complex, a mixture of joy and worry.
Joy at arriving in a world of extraordinary power, and one filled with beautiful women.
Worry because this seemed to be a world where strength was determined by bloodline.
With the luck of possessing the bloodline of the Uchiha, Senju, or even Uzumaki clans, life could be almost effortlessly easy.
At least, even if you fared poorly, you'd still be a ninja, perhaps even reaching Kage-level strength.
But the unfortunate thing was that he was transported into a body—a human from Earth without a single trace of chakra!
"Am I being sent to the Naruto world as a commoner? I refuse to accept this!"
[The system detects that the host has successfully transmigrated to the Naruto world and is currently expressing dissatisfaction with the lack of chakra within them.]
Upon seeing that he possessed a system, Hoshino's bitter face instantly transformed into a radiant sunflower.
"Yes, yes, I refuse to accept this! I can't extract any chakra from my body at all, not even given a chance to become stronger!"
He immediately launched into a tirade, almost revealing the sorrow of being sent here before even finishing reading the Naruto manga.
[The system immediately arranges for the host's body to return to infancy to redevelop and adapt to and acquire the special energy chakra of this world.]
When Xingye saw the solution offered by the system, the words he was about to say instantly caught in his throat.
But he didn't even have a chance to speak the next second. His body seemed to have been reversed in time, rapidly becoming younger.
"No! Wait! I mean, give me a cheat code!"
Before he could finish speaking, Xingye had already transformed from a young man into a teenager, his voice becoming childish.
"Not into a little kid—"
As he uttered the last word, he had once again transformed from a teenager into a child.
At this moment, Xingye was only a little over 90 centimeters tall, looking incredibly cute. He would definitely grow up to be a handsome man (of course, still not as handsome as you on screen).
Just as he was about to continue venting his dissatisfaction to the system, the wooden door to the room was opened.
Upon hearing the noise, Xingye immediately fell silent. After all, his current body age was still three years old.
At this age, he could probably only utter a few simple sentences. It would be terrible if someone discovered anything was amiss.
Although he couldn't speak, his eyes could still see openly.
He watched as the wooden door slowly opened, and the first thing he saw was a pure black kimono, devoid of any other color or adornment.
Then, Hoshino looked at her face and was surprised, especially by the diamond-shaped pattern on her forehead, which perfectly adorned her entire face.
But perhaps due to sadness, or perhaps from overwork, her face looked unusually haggard, giving her a pitiful appearance.
However, he didn't admire her for long before he saw the long red hair behind her, and a name subconsciously appeared in his mind.
"Is she Kushina Uzumaki? No, Kushina doesn't seem to have a diamond-shaped pattern on her forehead, does she?"
Of course, he only dared to think this in his mind; he dared not say it aloud.
Just as Hoshino was recognizing the person before him,
the red-haired woman standing in front of the wooden door saw that in her boudoir, and on her bed, there was a little one lying there.
A slightly sad, yet still pleasant voice softly spoke:
"Is this a child? Why is such a little one suddenly appearing in my room?"
The woman stared blankly at Xingye, momentarily forgetting her exhaustion. She didn't know how much time had passed, or what she was thinking.
Tears that had long since dried began to flow again, but this time, instead of a sorrowful expression, they were accompanied by a slight smile.
The woman slowly walked to the bedside and gently sat down, as if afraid of frightening the little one.
At this moment, Xingye already guessed who the red-haired woman before him was.
But he wasn't entirely sure. After all, the ninja world was vast, Konoha Village was vast, and the Uzumaki clan had many members.
It was possible that the red-haired woman he encountered was the one he suspected, since he had never actually met her before.
As Xingye didn't know how to break the awkward silence, his vision slowly rose higher.
"Ahhh!"
He instinctively let out a loud, whimpering cry.
"Don't be afraid, I'll just hug you for a bit."
It turned out that Xingye had been picked up directly.
Just as he relaxed, his little head was squeezed into a soft embrace.
Then came a woman's voice, clear and melodious:
"Hashirama just left me, but now this little one has suddenly appeared in my room. Perhaps it's fate."
The woman's eyes were filled with joy as she gently cradled the little one in her arms, talking to herself and recounting the many heartbreaking events of the past few days.
Hearing her stories, Hoshino, held in her arms, was now completely certain that the red-haired woman holding him was the one he had just suspected.
"It really is Uzumaki Mito!"
"Have I been transported directly to the boudoir of one of the strongest ninja in the world?"
He was incredibly excited; after all, this was a powerful figure!
It was common knowledge that the strongest woman in the ninja world was Otsutsuki Kaguya, but Uzumaki Mito was definitely second.
Putting everything else aside, just the complete Nine-Tails within her was enough to cause Konoha a major crisis.
Moreover, he had gleaned a crucial piece of information from Uzumaki Mito's self-talk!
So, Hasirama died just a few days ago!
The reason, of course, was his battle with Madara at the Valley of the End a few years ago. After various battles, his body couldn't take it anymore, and he died.
After all, extracting chakra consumes cellular energy, and the more frequent the battles, the faster one dies.
Just as Hoshino was diligently gathering information—no, listening intently—the culprit who turned him into a little kid reappeared!
[Ding! Detected feelings for the host from one of the female protagonists, Uzumaki Mito. This system is alive!!]
