Naruto: Starting with the Celebrity of Japan

Sakumo Hatake's complete devour reward is as follows:

[Potential consequences of consuming the current target]

[I. Moderately increases affinity for Lightning Release chakra, 73.11% probability (probability automatically adjusted for cremation penalty and prolonged death penalty for targets consumed)]

[Second, learn the complete Hatake clan swordsmanship, and when wielding the White Fang Blade, you can unleash the weapon's full power. You will also learn the ninjutsu "White Fang Body Flicker Technique" (22% probability).]

[3. Learn the ninjutsu "Konoha's Secret Taijutsu Technique: Thousand Years of Death" and be able to unleash its full power, 4.88% probability]

[IV. Other random effects, 0.01% probability]

Coincidentally, the most important reward, option two, has the same probability of being drawn as Tobirama's reward.

Ranshu, who had already achieved a nineteen-consecutive-break streak, used the system on Konoha's White Fang's grave.

"Devour".

[Successfully devoured! Extracting results...]

【▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓……99%】

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations on drawing result 1, "Moderately Increased Affinity for Lightning Chakra," the reward is being distributed.]

[Since the recipient has not yet awakened Lightning Release chakra, the reward has been changed to "Moderately Increase Chakra Amount," and the reward is being distributed.]

[Rewards have been distributed]

The current target to be consumed is now prohibited from being eaten.

"..."

Luanxiu could not accept this result.

My 20-pull combo failed!

Twenty!

Is that probability really 22%?!

Ranshu looked at the reward from Konoha's White Fang that he had wasted and was now filled with regret.

"It's alright, though. I've already learned quite a bit of the Hatake family's swordsmanship from Kakashi. It's just a pity about that 'White Fang Body Flicker Technique.'"

Regardless, Ranshu also gained a significant boost in chakra thanks to Konoha's White Fang.

It wasn't entirely without any gains.

However, I dare not try random draws again, especially the Devouring rewards from Tobirama and Hashirama. I can only wait and see if there is a way to reduce the loss from drawing the wrong character.

Having abandoned its chaotic display of manipulating numbers, it turned its attention to devouring other dead.

Ranxiu selected the next victim in order.

The deceased was a female ninja named Yua Aizawa, and her reward distribution was very similar to the previous ones.

Option 1 has a 96% chance of granting a slight increase in chakra.

Option two may be related to the deceased's signature ability, which is that they learned the illusion technique "Fox Mind Technique," with a probability of 3.99%.

This technique creates illusions of spatial displacement, causing the victim to continuously cycle through the same location, unable to escape the labyrinth of illusions.

Luanxiu wasn't particularly interested in acquiring this illusion technique, since it was only a C-rank illusion.

Now, Ranshu can use genjutsu with power no less than this technique, relying only on the most basic power of the Sharingan.

His battle with Kurenai Yuhi a few days ago is proof of that.

Of course, statistically speaking, the 3.99% probability is lower than the previous 22%.

Randomly showing off will probably only result in him increasing his chakra a little bit in the end.

But who knew...

After Ranshu devoured Aizawa Yua, this announcement was heard:

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations on drawing result two, "Learned the illusion technique 'Fox Mind Technique'", the reward is being distributed]

"..."

Luanxiu now feels that the system is targeting him.

After failing to draw the reward he had 19 times in a row, he didn't get the reward with a 22% chance of success, but now he's drawn the reward with a less than 4% chance of success!

This is no less significant than when planning to upgrade weapons to Red 18...

I upgraded the samurai sword I was using as a cushion to +20!

This system is terrible!

Ran Xiu, cursing and swearing, moved from Yua Aizawa's grave to the next deceased person's grave.

……

Meanwhile, in the Hokage's office.

The third generation happily covered the entire crystal ball with the cloth that the crystal ball used for covering.

His observation of Luanxiu tonight had come to an end; there was no need to watch any further.

"Konoha... has found such an outstanding child!"

The third generation couldn't help but sigh.

That's right, this is the third generation's evaluation of Ran Shu.

For the first time, the Third Hokage truly regarded Ran Shu as Minato's disciple.

Countless tests have proven Ran Shu's innocence, and the Third Hokage has no more doubts about him:

—The undercover investigation report found no suspicious points regarding Luanxiu's identity.

—After arriving in Konoha, Ranshu did not indulge in flirting with young girls, but instead devoted himself to charity work at an orphanage.

After experiencing several major missions, he made contributions to Konoha but was not arrogant or complacent. Instead, he continued to train diligently with Kakashi, Guy, and other promising young talents.

—And in the last few days, Ranshu has taken on the additional job of guarding the Konoha Cemetery.

Especially today, unaware that he was being observed by the Third Hokage, Ran Shu still paid his respects at the graves of the First Hokage, the Second Hokage, and a host of Konoha elders.

The focused look, the devout expression, the heartfelt excitement for the heroes they were paying homage to…

All of this undoubtedly proves...

Ranshu is an excellent ninja!

It is the future of Konoha's continued vitality!

If this doesn't prove that Ran Shu inherited the Will of Fire, then I don't know who else could possibly deserve that title.

"Let this child showcase his talents on a bigger stage!"

The third generation nodded, making a decision in his heart.

He then left the office.

After giving a few orders to one of the guards, who was a cat-headed ANBU,...

The three generations went back to their dormitories to rest, feeling reassured.

Meanwhile, the completely unaware Luanxiu...

He was still happily making the old fogies of Konoha shower him with gold coins in the cemetery...

……

Luanxiu returned to his cabin just after dawn.

After a night of devouring—

Of course, a lot of time was wasted on testing earlier.

Ran Xiu's skills have improved again.

The biggest improvement is the increase in total chakra.

This was mainly due to the rewards from the White Fang of Konoha who devoured others; the combined rewards from all the other dead did not equal the rewards given by White Fang alone.

Another important reward is that Ranshu finally awakened his lightning-attribute chakra!

This reward was just revealed before I went home and showed it off.

With lightning chakra and the yang chakra awakened by the Eight Gates, Ranshu is finally a ninja proficient in all chakra attributes.

This also means that Ranshu can start learning and mastering the Lightning Release: Chidori scroll that was revealed a long time ago.

After a brief meditation to recharge, Luanxiu's new day began.

He tidied up the small house briefly.

Today, instead of meeting up with Kakashi and Guy, he arranged to meet with Kurenai Yuhi to practice genjutsu.

Soon after the sun rose, Hong, dressed in red and white, arrived at the scene with two bento boxes.

As soon as she entered, Hong Er didn't say a word and immediately pounced on Luan Xiu.

Luanxiu felt as if she were hugging something fragrant and soft...

"Luanxiu! You look so handsome today!"

Kurenai Yuhi Ranshu, her eyes sparkling, spoke to Ranshu, who was about ten centimeters away from her face.

Luan Xiu thought to himself, "I look so handsome today?"

When am I not handsome?!

Of course, Ranxiu didn't give that answer...

He simply smiled at Hong.

The latter, however, still clung to Luanxiu's neck and wouldn't let go, clinging to him and refusing to get down.

Luanxiu now understood that Hong must want something from him if he came to fawn over him in broad daylight for no reason.

Those who admire the color red desire something from me!

So Luanxiu reached under Hong's armpit, took the clingy Hong off him, and asked with a smile:

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
