Naruto: Inheriting the Legacy of a Person Who Traveled Through Time

At the barrier gate of Konoha Village in the Land of Fire.

Tetsuya's expression was not good.

One minute ago.

"I'm sorry, your situation doesn't meet the requirements of the security guard team. Please train for a few more years before coming back."

Wearing a ninja hat and with long brown hair that covered half of his face, Izumo Kamui expressionlessly refused Tetsuya's request.

In fact, Tetsuya had expected this outcome; he was just making a last-ditch effort with a glimmer of hope.

As a graduate of the previous ninja academy, Tetsuya was definitely the most typical cannon fodder. Born into a commoner family and orphaned, he had no other notable abilities besides the chakra refining techniques and the Three Body Techniques taught at the ninja academy, as well as a throwing technique that was considered decent for a genin.

As the face of Konoha, although there is no explicit rule, the gatekeeper team is composed of Chunin, and it is impossible to recruit a lowly Genin like Tetsuya.

As for the Chunin teacher who was assigned to the job after graduation, he was now lying in Konoha's mortuary. After all, who could have imagined that a simple mission to wipe out bandits would lead to an encounter with a wandering ninja? Caught off guard by the sneak attack, the Chunin teacher died along with the wandering ninja behind the bandits. Two of his companions also died, one dead and the other seriously injured, leaving Che alone.

Most importantly, just one day ago, the future Seventh Hokage and savior, Naruto Uzumaki, had successfully graduated from the Ninja Academy. This meant that the Konoha Crush, Pain's invasion, and the Fourth Shinobi World War would follow one after another. How to survive became a problem that Tetsuya had to face.

Applying to join the gatekeeper team was originally one of the best options for Tetsuya to continue being a ninja. After all, as long as the Konoha Crush plan was avoided, the gatekeeper team was a relatively safe place in Konoha. Even if the filial son returned to the village, he would at most be hit by a genjutsu. Moreover, Pain did not invade through the gate, and even the Shinra Tensei that destroyed Konoha did not affect this place.

Since this path is not feasible, becoming a bodyguard for the Daimyo of the Land of Fire is even more impossible. The Twelve Guardian Ninjas are at least Jonin level, and Toru is not Asuma, the son of the Hokage. Without Konoha's permission, rashly approaching the Daimyo of the Land of Fire would surely lead to him being regarded as a spy and killed on the spot.

It seems there's only one path left: fully utilize his good looks and become a live-in son-in-law at Ichiraku Ramen...

Tetsuya touched his handsome face. He must be Ayame's type, right?

In the world of Five Villages' Melee: The Legend of the Eyes, even surviving is not an easy thing. Only by staying by the side of Ichiraku Otsutsuki, who survived until Boruto, can one gain a fragile sense of security.

Ding!

Just as Tetsuya was about to resign himself to his fate, a clear voice rang in his ears, bringing a glimmer of hope to his eyes.

[Simultaneously, the chat group has finished loading, and member ability sharing is now enabled.]

Currently, there is 1 person online.

[Unread messages have been detected in the chat group. Do you want to enable this feature?]

Several messages flashed through Tetsuya's mind, causing him to pause in his steps toward Ichiraku Ramen and subtly turn around to take another path.

A two-story detached old house, about fifty or sixty square meters in area, is the only legacy left by the parents of this body.

Inside the room, Tetsuya, slightly excited, focused his consciousness into his mind.

Is anyone there?

"I've actually arrived in that insane and extraordinary world of the Lord of Mysteries, and become a Sequence 9 diviner. With just a whistle, you can share in extraordinary power..."

"Damn, I've already advanced to demigod level, and I'm still the only one in this group. What's the use of this cheat system?"

"...Damn Amon, the extraordinary trait of the Miracle Master that I went through so much trouble to obtain has been tracked down by Amon..."

"Since we're going to die anyway, I might as well leave the Miracle Master's extraordinary abilities to me in another world rather than let Amon benefit from them!"

"Interesting, let me see what's going on... Ah!"

[Unbound soul intrusion detected, has been eliminated!]

Inside the room, Tetsuya stared at the series of group chat records, his eyes twitching a few times.

So, the me who also transmigrated to the world of Lord of Mysteries has already been possessed by Amon?

What about that extraordinary quality of a miracle worker?

The thought popped into his mind, and Tetsuya's eyes lit up as a crystal heart the size of a fist appeared in front of him.

Is this the extraordinary characteristic of a miracle worker?

Tetsuya suppressed his joy and carefully examined the crystal heart in front of him, which was about the size of a fist, as clear as crystal, emitting a faint purple light, and with tiny bubbles constantly rising from its bottom. As soon as his gaze fell on the bubbles, Tetsuya's eyes lost focus and he fell into an illusion.

"That's amazing..."

A minute later, when the bubble rose to the top and burst, Tetsuya regained his senses and couldn't help but sigh.

When Tetsuya carefully reached out and touched the crystal heart, a new piece of information immediately appeared in his mind.

[Sealed Artifact: A Gift of Time and Fate]

[Extraordinary Ability 1: Every ten days, a Mystic Doll with a Sequence 2 slot is created, retaining the Fool's Path ability of those below the demigod level.]

[Extraordinary Ability 2: Mystic Artifacts can summon projections of historical voids, images, and even fragments of time, but require an extremely detailed and realistic understanding of the corresponding history and events. The more detailed and realistic the understanding, the greater the probability of success and the longer the effect lasts. In addition, some abilities can be gained from the target.]

That's all?

Tetsuya blinked, about to complain that Amon had stolen some of the power from this sealed artifact, when the crystal heart transformed into a stream of light and entered Tetsuya's body, merging with his beating heart into one.

Summon Mystic!

With a thought, Tetsuya's surroundings gathered light, and an identical figure appeared beside him. Tetsuya's vision split in two, and the two figures stared at each other.

After a few seconds of stunned silence, Tetsuya still couldn't get used to this multitasking perspective, so he simply took a few steps back and sat down in a chair, focusing intently on manipulating the puppet's body.

Manipulating flames, air bullets, paper dolls...

His ability to use various skills at will brought a smile to Tetsuya's face.

Unfortunately, this puppet has limitations; each summoning can only last for about fifteen minutes. Otherwise, with a demigod-level puppet protecting us day and night, why would we need to worry about Orochimaru and Pain?

Oh, and the most crucial historical projection!

Just as he raised his hand, a thought suddenly flashed through Tetsuya's mind.

Tetsuya was fully aware of everything that would happen in the future of the Naruto world.

In that case, is it possible to summon a projection of the future?

Tetsuya's hand, which had paused, reached out again and grabbed at the air in front of him. Then, his arm suddenly sank, pulling out a figure wearing a Hokage hat and a divine robe. It was none other than the Seventh Hokage, Naruto Uzumaki!

Sure enough!

Before Tetsuya's joy could blossom, he immediately noticed that Naruto Uzumaki, whose body was mostly exposed, had a blank stare and his entire figure shattered and disappeared like a phantom.

The projection is too far removed from the real-world target; lacking a foundation, it cannot be sustained.

Too far away?

Tetsuya snapped his fingers, and a ball of fire rose from several fallen leaves dozens of feet away from the house. The puppet, whose appearance and height had been altered through the Faceless Man's abilities, appeared out of thin air above the flames. This bizarre scene went unnoticed by anyone.

In the Genin stage, whose ability would bring about a transformative power boost?

Almost without thinking, Tetsuya already had the answer in his heart.
