Warring States Ninja Have No Choice

In the Warring States period, when the average life expectancy was thirty, Chu felt deeply satisfied with the world.

She had enough power to exterminate pests, her superior didn't make her guess what he meant, and the order between nobles, shinobi, and commoners was stable.

So rather than having no choice, Chu preferred to believe she had no other desires. She was willing to die as a shinobi, as a tool.

But she was remarkably hard to kill.

Amid repeated brushes with death, she cast aside all the doubts and confusion she'd developed about shinobi.

To ensure job stability and improve her boss's satisfaction, the ultimate company drone, Uchiha Chu, finally sorted out her thoughts and decided to take care of everything once and for all:

If I fire all my bosses, they can never fire me!
