Unify the Ninja World by Dying!

1.

Rina Zenin transmigrated into the world of her favorite series, Naruto, and now she was Rina Uchiha.

The System offered her two ways to get home:

One: complete the System's main quest, "Create a happy ending in the ninja world."

Two: die in an accident while completing the main quest.

That's how it worked, the System explained.

It was a legitimate System, and the Space-Time Administration had bought insurance for every System Host.

If Rina Zenin died in an accident during a mission, she could return to her original world exactly as she was, with ten billion dollars from a legal source.

If she completed the System's main quest, she would not only receive one trillion dollars, an amount that wouldn't affect the world economy, but could also take home all the powers, money, and everything else she'd gained in the ninja world.

2.

"All right, I'll do my best to finish the mission. I really like the characters in Naruto, after all."

Though she said that to the System, Rina Uchiha had already made up her mind:

She was going to commit insurance fraud! She'd die and go home right away!

What kind of joke was this? Who could create a genuinely happy ending in a place like the ninja world?

And wasn't ten billion enough to take home?

She wasn't Toji, for goodness' sake. She wasn't that greedy!

But the System's insurance policy didn't cover suicide.

So she started doing everything she could to get herself killed, shouting, "I'm doing this for the future of the ninja world!" as she threw herself into danger:

On the battlefield, Rina Uchiha was always the first to charge in. She took on every danger and let her comrades share in every reward.

Back in the Hidden Leaf Village, when Danzo and Orochimaru set their sights on a comrade with a special bloodline, Rina didn't hesitate to step in and draw their attention away.

As for Black Zetsu and the nobles, there was no need to think twice: she'd assassinate them at once!

She went wherever the battlefield was most dangerous, learned every forbidden jutsu that could get her killed, and picked a fight with every heartless mastermind she could find!

But after a while, Rina Uchiha started to think something was off:

Why was she getting stronger and stronger, and why couldn't she die, even though she kept putting herself in mortal danger?

Why was someone always showing up to save her just when she was about to succeed in getting herself killed? And why did they keep shouting things like:

"The hope of the Uchiha!" "The inheritor of the Will of Fire!" "We'll follow Lady Rina and overthrow the daimyo!"

"Don't you dare leave us all behind and die alone!!"

Content warnings:

1.

The pairing is undecided. The story leans toward a heroine adored by many. No picking favorites; the pairing will be decided by the story, and there may be multiple endings.

2.

The heroine will eventually go home, but only after unifying the ninja world.

Although she spends her days courting death, everyone ends up being saved because of it.

3.

The author is a fan of every character, so ship whoever you like. Comments will be deleted if people start fighting.

That also means this story won't bash the Hidden Leaf or the Uchiha, or you could say it bashes them all.

So the fates of Obito, Rin, the Fourth Hokage and his wife, as well as Madara and Hashirama, will all change.

4.

The first part is about the heroine's daily life of killing ninja; later, she turns to unifying the world and building it up.

5.

Since the original story's timeline and setting sometimes contradict each other, some elements will be used selectively, alongside plenty of original worldbuilding.

6.

The previous teaser has been changed. The old teaser, The Bat in the Batcave, has been replaced by the link at the bottom of the bulletin board.

Here's another upcoming story: The Right Way to Save the Ninja World

1.

The first law of the ninja world:

[My pain is greater than yours!]

In other words, I can only understand you if I've suffered just as much as you have; I can only persuade you if I've suffered more.

The second law of the ninja world:

[Being on the verge of death helps you talk someone around!]

In other words, if you can beat the other person up before trying to persuade them, you're more likely to succeed.

2.

So how did Rina Zenin learn all this?

Ha!

When she first transmigrated with a manga forum, and the forum told her to save the ninja world using popularity points, Rina Zenin tried her best.

Even though she landed right in the middle of a battlefield, she knew that manga readers' perceptions could affect reality in the manga world. One thunderous claim, "I'm a descendant of Madara Uchiha," was all it took to give herself a suitably stylish Uchiha identity.

It looked like saving the ninja world was just around the corner.

Then she found herself living with Orochimaru and Shimura Danzo watching her like hawks, while Black Zetsu and Obito kept scheming behind her back...

And the countdown to the Uchiha massacre kept ticking along!

Nobody! Would! Listen! To her!!

Because she hadn't suffered enough!

Because she was just an ordinary Uchiha orphan, abandoned far from home. She had neither the hatred of a fallen nation nor the loss of a beloved, a dear friend, or a dream!

3.

Then one day, Rina finally saw the light:

What was all that about not wanting to make up a tragic past to manipulate people's feelings? Not wanting to be a tragic beauty or a doomed little flower? Wanting to save the ninja world with dignity?

In this godforsaken ninja world where you can't even play games, being beautiful, strong, and tragic was the way to go!

And she wasn't going to settle for ordinary beautiful-and-tragic.

Her backstory had to be more tragic than anyone else's in the ninja world, and she had to be stronger than everyone else.

Only then could she follow the steps: beat her enemies up, talk them around, and get the ninjas to help her save the world!

4.

There was just one thing Rina forgot:

Too much of anything has the opposite effect.

Finding one embroidered shoe in your bedroom is a horror story. Finding a hundred turns it into a shoe factory's warehouse disaster.

As Rina raced toward becoming beautiful, strong, and tragic, the ninjas and readers initially sympathized with her, related to her, and felt for her. They started to consider what she said and what she wanted to do.

But as her backstory kept unfolding, layer by layer, from an Uchiha abandoned far from home to a forbidden child of the Senju and Uchiha clans, from a war orphan to a survivor of the already fallen Uzushiogakure...

They were numb.

Could anyone really have a backstory like that?

Could anyone go through all that and still stay sane?

Give it a rest, Rina!

Finally, one day, the ninjas, completely overwhelmed, came to understand: "Understanding isn't a contest to see who suffered more. We don't all have to suffer equally to work together for peace."

Trembling, the ninjas made a suggestion to Rina Uchiha, who had already unified the entire ninja world:

"Didn't you say aliens were going to destroy the ninja world? Then let's go fight the aliens! Forget about everything that happened in the past!!"
