When Shi Chen woke up, he found himself transmigrated to the turbulent Hokage world, where he had become an ordinary Genin of Iwagakure, a village renowned for its "Will of Stone."
It was the year before the Uchiha Clan Massacre. Tensions simmered beneath the surface, and war could break out at any moment.
In this world where human life was as cheap as grass, he was fortunate to awaken a one-of-a-kind golden finger: the [Yin-Yang Eyes] and [Tai Chi Fist].
His left eye was Yin, able to engulf all things, devour ninjutsu, and snuff out life.
His right eye was Yang, able to reveal the truth, spot weaknesses, and see through illusions.
With Tai Chi Fist at his command, he could turn softness into strength and overcome great force with little effort.
He had thought he was destined for the steady path of a martial arts grandmaster, until he met the future Fourth Tsuchikage, Kurotsuchi. During a friendly spar, he heard something that shattered his worldview.
[Ding! You have formed an initial bond with the story character [Kurotsuchi]. Reward: chakra refinement efficiency +10%!]
Shi Chen: "???"
In this cruel shinobi world, could he really earn rewards by forming bonds with other female characters?
Was this System... one that also offered more children, more blessings?
Looking at the proud, lively girl before him, Shi Chen fell into deep thought. Perhaps there was more than one way to change this tragic world.
