Synthesis Ninja system

Naruto Uzumaki actually gave up!

This made Shiro incredulous!

Naruto Uzumaki was known for his resilience. Even when on the verge of defeat, he never gave up hope.

That's why he eventually became the Seventh Hokage! 

But now, he had given up! 

Tsunade, on the other hand, nodded in satisfaction. For some reason, the thought of someone surpassing Shiro left her feeling uneasy.

"Admitting defeat is a good thing for you. Some things can be caught up with hard work, but some things can't, no matter how much effort you put in!" 

Naruto's whole body trembled, and his head lowered even further! 

However, Tsunade didn't seem to notice Naruto's disappointment. She walked back into the barbecue restaurant without looking back.

"Tsunade-sama, wasn't that a bit too harsh?"

"What do you know, Shiro? That kid with the Nine-Tails is too stubborn. A little pressure might actually help him! Besides, I have no grudge against him, why would I want to push him too hard?"

Tsunade said irritably and then playfully grabbed Shiro in a headlock.

The next morning, Shiro felt as if the entire world was shaking, like an earthquake.

He could hear Shizune's anxious shouting beside him.

Shiro smiled nonchalantly. Shizune was known for her calm and composed nature; she would never lose her composure like this! 

So, this must be a dream!

Since it's a dream, he could do whatever he wanted! 

With this thought, Shiro smirked mischievously and reached out to embrace her.

Suddenly, everything went silent. Even the "earthquake" stopped.

"Shiro-kun, please... Tsunade-sama is missing!"

Shiro jolted awake and quickly opened his eyes.

Shizune stood there, shyly glancing at him, her gaze flickering as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

Shiro was fully awake now!

According to the storyline, today should be the day Tsunade goes to find Orochimaru, seeking a way to revive two people!

But because of her hemophobia, she nearly fell victim to Kabuto!

Shiro slapped his forehead in frustration. He thought he had convinced Senju Tsunade yesterday, but things were still going according to the original plot!

"Shizune, don't worry! I think I know where Tsunade-sama is!"

Shiro quickly jumped out of bed, threw on his clothes, and rushed out.

Jiraiya and Naruto were already waiting outside.

Especially Jiraiya, whose face was already clouded with concern. 

"Shiro! You just said you know where Tsunade went, is that true?"

Jiraiya asked anxiously, even more desperate than Shizune! 

For Jiraiya, Tsunade was the love of his life, and he had never given up on her. 

Now that Tsunade was missing, how could he not be worried?

"She probably went to find Orochimaru!"

Jiraiya trembled, his face filled with confusion.

"She went to find Orochimaru? Why?"

"To bring two people back to life! Using the same technique he used against the Third Hokage!"

"Damn it! Tsunade's lost it!"

...

After Shiro mentioned a possible location, Jiraiya pounded his chest hard.

In an instant, both Jiraiya and Naruto vanished in a puff of smoke!

Shiro chuckled bitterly. Of course, they were just shadow clones. With Jiraiya's personality, there was no way he'd just sit and wait quietly!

"Shizune! Let's go! We can't wait any longer!"

Not long after, Shiro and Shizune arrived at an open field on the outskirts of town. From a distance, they could see two men and a woman standing there.

"It's really Tsunade-sama!"

Seeing Tsunade safe and sound, Shizune finally breathed a sigh of relief. She quickly picked up her pace and ran toward them.

"Senju Tsunade! I know not only about your strengths but also your biggest weakness!" Kabuto said smugly, stabbing his hand with a kunai.

He flung his arm, sending a spray of blood toward Tsunade!

Tsunade, who had remained calm until now, suddenly had her pupils shrink to the size of needles. She collapsed to the ground, trembling uncontrollably.

"See that? How can someone with hemophobia be fit to be a ninja, let alone a medical ninja? I've heard that your lover died right in front of you!"

Kabuto pushed up his glasses with one hand, a cold smile spreading across his face.

He then picked up the kunai and started walking toward Tsunade step by step.

Bam! 

Tsunade was kicked hard, rolling across the ground several times before coming to a stop.

But her trembling didn't cease; in fact, it worsened as Kabuto's blood dripped onto the ground near her.

"You're this scared of my blood? I wonder how you'd react to your own!"

Kabuto sneered, raising the kunai high before plunging it down toward Tsunade!

Bam! 

Suddenly, Kabuto felt the world spinning as a sharp pain shot through his abdomen, sending him rolling on the ground.

Kabuto scrambled to his feet, glaring at Shiro and Shizune in rage.

"Shiro! You again, you brat!"

Kabuto had been kicked by Shiro yesterday, and now the same spot and the same kick had sent him flying again.

"That's right, it's me! And today, you're not getting away!"

"Kabuto, come here!"

Orochimaru, standing behind Kabuto, suddenly spoke. Kabuto obediently ran over.

"Blood!"

As soon as Orochimaru gave the word, Kabuto quickly smeared his blood onto Orochimaru's hand. Orochimaru made a series of hand seals, and a cloud of thick smoke rose up!

*Ding! Identified Ninjutsu: Summoning Jutsu! (No contract signed)*

*Ding! Mission choice triggered!*

1. Help Orochimaru capture Tsunade! Reward: Byakugan!

2. Defeat Orochimaru! Reward: Creation Rebirth Jutsu!

3. Kill Orochimaru! Reward: Rinnegan!

Shiro cursed inwardly. The first and third options were pure temptation, designed to mess with him!

There was no way Shiro could betray Tsunade.

And killing Orochimaru? That was highly unlikely!

Even in his weakened state, Orochimaru had techniques like Immortality Jutsu and the Eight-Headed Serpent Technique to save himself. 

If he escaped, it wouldn't be worth it.

I choose option two!

As soon as he made his choice, a black diamond shape appeared on Shiro's forehead, identical to the one on Tsunade's!

This was Tsunade's S-rank jutsu, the Creation Rebirth Jutsu!

It stored unused chakra in a seal on the forehead and released it all at once when needed!

This gave enough chakra to use a variety of jutsu.

And it greatly enhanced all physical abilities!

"Shizune, you take care of Kabuto! I'll deal with Orochimaru!"

"Got it!"

As soon as Shizune agreed, she looked up and saw a massive snake hissing and flicking its tongue.

"Manda! Shiro, I'll handle these two; you take Tsunade-sama and get out of here!" Shizune said with determination in her eyes.

Shiro walked over to her, lightly flicked her forehead, and said:

"Idiot! Like I'd ever leave you behind!"

Idiot! How could you guys not vote for me?
