After failing to assassinate Hashirama, Kakuzu was betrayed by his village and left on the brink of death. That was when he bound himself to the “System of All-Evil Capitalism.” Earn one billion in three years, or be erased!
Seeing that his starter pack included ten years of Black Zetsu’s servitude and an army of a hundred thousand White Zetsu, Kakuzu’s green eyes lit up.
“996? Way too generous! Put them on 007 shifts building towers!”
Faking the ledgers with shoddy building materials? Having the Seven-Tails rampage to demolish the competition? Turning chakra into debt securities to fleece the shinobi villages? Just routine business!
When the Five Great Nations discovered that the Hidden Waterfall Village was bankrupt and Konoha’s shopping district was riddled with listening devices, Kakuzu was already counting his money with a cold smile.
“Tailed beasts? Just the next IPO project!”
Decades later, Naruto, the young prince of the shinobi world, stood bewildered outside an Ichiraku Capital franchise, clutching a chakra coin issued by Kakuzu Bank. “I just want a bowl of ramen... Do I have to open a financial account first?”
And at the pinnacle of the shinobi world, Kakuzu sat on a throne forged from chakra coins, gazing down at the Five Great Shinobi Villages shackled by endless economic chains as he swirled a glass filled with liquid gold.
“So, who still wants to fight?”
It's not easy to write a new book. This kind of system puppet novel is no longer popular. It's okay to change the failure penalty.
If you want to attract readers, remove task penalties. In what age does system writing still impose penalties?
