I'm in Naruto, but the system says I'm in One Piece.

Chapter 2 So you're called Water Column?

Who is Liu Haizhu?

The professional mage, Luffy wielding a kitchen knife, and the Pillar from Demon Slayer are all his aliases (just kidding).

In this ninja world, Liu Haizhu may not be a sorcerer, but he will definitely master ninjutsu in the future.

Hoshino Yu felt a little numb.

They've been searching for Luffy for two years, but they've found Liu Haizhu instead. Who can they complain to?

Although the mission is progressing, so be it, as long as there are rewards to be had.

But his chiseled yet somewhat youthful face, devoid of any beard, left him speechless.

That's so distracting.

"It looks like it, it really looks like it..." Hoshino Yu murmured to herself, her lips trembling slightly.

"What do you mean?" Minato Namikaze asked.

"Liu Haizhu..."

Before he could finish speaking, the surrounding crowd began to stir, and the child who resembled Liu Haizhu opened his mouth wide, pointed at him excitedly, and said:

"He's the author of One Piece!"

"Yu-kun! Yu-kun!"

"Aaaaaah!!"

......

The sudden commotion brought Hoshino Yu back to her senses.

Seeing that everyone around him was looking at him, he suddenly realized what he had just done.

Unlike the fervor of the parents and fans around them, those ninjas had a hint of murderous intent in their eyes, which made Hoshino Yu feel a little uneasy.

This is the entrance ceremony for the ninja academy. Not to mention the school teachers on the surface, the ninjas from the Anbu, Root and other secret units are probably all thinking about killing him right now.

Of course, the possibility that they have their own fans cannot be ruled out.

Just as he and Minato were hurriedly apologizing to everyone, a cough on stage instantly silenced the entire audience.

"Cough cough."

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, coughed lightly twice on the stage, and within moments the noise below the stage returned to silence.

Having ruled Konoha for many years, Hiruzen Sarutobi's prestige was nearing its peak during his prime; all that was missing was a major battle to demonstrate his abilities.

Seeing that the entire audience had returned to solemnity, he then continued speaking about the Will of Fire:

"I have seen countless ninjas dedicate themselves to the village. Their spirit has not faded with time, but has transformed into a beacon illuminating our path forward."

"Perhaps one day, all of you here will become capable ninjas..."

......

"Yu-kun, what happened to that person after all that commotion?" Minato Namikaze breathed a sigh of relief as order was restored, and asked Hoshino Yu in a low voice.

"It's nothing..." Hoshino Yu replied vaguely, while her gaze remained fixed on the back of 'Luffy'. "That's the guy. I need to get to know him later."

These words were said to Minato, but also to himself.

I've already completed 50% of the task with just one glance. I'll get to know them better after the opening ceremony, and then I'll probably finish the system task.

Even if it's not the real Luffy, it's fine, as long as I get the reward.

Furthermore, there is another possibility: future missions will likely be related to "Luffy".

The most important thing now is to get our hands on the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, eat it, and then we can talk about everything else.

Seeing Hoshino Yu's reaction, Minato, who was standing to the side, was also quite curious.

He had never seen Hoshino Yu so out of control.

Since we met when I was two years old, this friend has always given me the impression of being very experienced and mature, far beyond the maturity of his peers, just like an adult.

Both in terms of their work style and their tone of voice.

This was the first time Minato had encountered Hoshino Yu in this situation, and he became quite curious about this "Luffy"-dressed character.

"Children, you are the most precious seeds of Konoha. May you thrive under this great tree, and may the Will of Fire forever burn in your hearts, becoming a light that warms yourselves and illuminates others!"

"Go for it, little leaves! The future of Konoha rests on your shoulders!"

After speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi bowed deeply, drawing thunderous applause from the audience.

Then the elders, who were still middle-aged, came out one by one to give speeches, which were mostly just polite remarks.

Including the future 5.5th Hokage, Danzo Shimura.

Hoshino Yu was standing there feeling a little uncomfortable, as Danzo's long and harsh speech made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.

He was only thinking about finding Liu Haizhu, completing the task, and getting the reward.

Fortunately, he eventually got through the long ceremony.

As the group of ninja instructors on the field directed the crowd to disperse, Hoshino Yuuya found his opportunity.

"Minato, follow me." After saying that, Tatenko headed towards Luffy's location and squeezed through the crowd.

Minato nodded slightly and followed behind him.

The two squeezed through the crowd and finally managed to get to Luffy's side.

"Hey, senior, can we get to know each other?"

Upon hearing this, "Luffy" turned around, but the familiar face made Hoshino Yu feel completely out of place.

However, before he could speak again, "Luffy" blushed and pointed at Hoshino Yu with an excited expression:

"Yu-kun! I'm your fan! I started following One Piece when it first came out, and I've been following it for over a year! Could you please sign my autograph?!"

"No, why are you blushing like that..." Hoshino Yu blinked, speechless to herself.

After saying that, as if realizing his reaction was a bit too strong, "Luffy," his face flushed red, straightened up and nodded to Hoshino Yu:

"Smith! My name is Water Column! I'm a third-year student!"

Water column... Sea column...

Thankfully, it's not called a sea pillar.

Hoshino Yu thought this to himself, and at the same time, he straightened up, extended his right hand, and said:

"Umi...Water Pillar-senpai, it's a great honor to meet you. I'm Hoshino Yu!"

When the water column excitedly reached out and shook hands with him, the system in his mind finally reacted again.

[You have received the main quest: Meet the protagonist of One Piece, the Straw Hat Luffy.]

[Mission Reward: Rumble-Rumble Fruit *1, activated in personal attribute panel.]

Current progress: 100% (Completed)

[Rewards being distributed... The Rumble-Rumble Fruit has been distributed, your personal attribute panel is activated, and the reward has been stored in your personal inventory. Please check your attribute panel.]

"Nice!"

Hoshino Yu was overjoyed. The reward she had been longing for was finally in her hands, and she unconsciously tightened her grip a little.

However, this meager strength was nothing to the Water Pillar, who had already studied at the Ninja Academy for three years.

Hoshino Yu didn't notice this, but quickly looked at the personal panel in his mind.

[Name: Hoshino Yuu]

Age: 6

Chakra level: 0.3 (low amount)

【五维:力0.3/速0.3/体0.3/精6/印0.7】

Chakra Properties: Lightning, Water, Fire, Yin, Yang

[Ninja/Body/Illusion: None]

[Item: Rumble-Rumble Fruit *1]

[Assignable attribute points: 0]

(Reference note: The average stats of a typical 20-year-old adult are 1 in all aspects except for hand seals and chakra.)

"As expected of a child's constitution, low in strength, speed, and stamina."

"His chakra reserves aren't high, but they're more than ordinary people. It's probably because he's a descendant of ninjas..." Hoshino Yu thought to himself.

Besides practicing hand seals and speed, he also took Minato to the library to look up information about refining chakra, and he and Minato even tried it out in private.

This kind of thing only happened because Hoshino Yu was an outsider.

The core course at the Ninja Academy is the introduction to chakra refinement, and it is reasonable for them to try it out privately beforehand as a "talent-based activity".

So even Minato still has some chakra within him.

Moreover, given that he was from a poor, lowly clan with no bloodline or background, and had not undergone excessive refinement, it was normal for him to have a small amount of chakra at the age of six.

"But it actually has all five elemental chakra attributes... which is similar to Minato's own chakra attributes in the data..."

"We'll have more methods in the future, but I wonder if the use of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit will be related to chakra..."

Hoshino Yu felt a pang of emotion.

I thought this body would only have one or two chakra attributes, but I didn't expect it to have five.

Especially the chakra with both yin and yang attributes.

According to his memory, as recorded in the official Book of Formations, Minato Namikaze's chakra nature was fire, wind, lightning, and yin-yang.

Both of them are lacking in earth element and aren't exactly kind-hearted, so it's no wonder they can get along so well.

As for high mental strength, this is a common trait among transmigrators, and their outstanding memory is also due to this reason.

Those with low mental strength basically died on the way to time travel.

But there was one thing he didn't quite understand: why did the One Piece mission system give him a personal information panel for the ninja world?

Wouldn't this create chaos?

Just as Hoshino Yu was checking the panel, Minato, who arrived late, narrowed his eyes and saw that the two had already clasped hands, so he stepped forward to ask.

"Yu-kun, who is this...?"

Upon hearing Minato's voice, Hoshino Yu, suppressing her joy, released her grip and began to explain to Minato:

"Minato, this is a third-year senior, Water Pillar Senior."

Upon hearing this, Minato Namikaze also extended his right hand respectfully and said:

"Hello, Water Pillar-senpai, I am Minato Namikaze."

"Water column".

The two greeted each other with a handshake, just like Hoshino Yu had done before.

However, the Water Pillar's attitude towards Minato was not as fervent as his attitude towards Hoshino Yu.

After getting to know each other, the three were about to continue their conversation when a figure suddenly appeared beside them.

"So fast!" *2

Hoshino Yu and Minato reacted at the same time, turning their heads to look and thinking to themselves.

The newcomer glanced at the water column, then his gaze fell on Hoshino Yu and Minato, his eyes filled with a hint of scrutiny.

"Hoshino Yu, Namikaze Minato, you two come with me."

Here it comes, the consequences of the noise at the ceremony are coming to haunt me, but can I finish my Rumble-Rumble Fruit first?

Hoshino Yu sighed inwardly, pretending to look at the ninja in front of him with some concern.

The other party was wearing a headband and a vest, but not a mask, so we can rule out the Dark Side and Root.

Judging from his appearance and age, he seems to be in his twenties, but he couldn't possibly be a genin.

I've looked into the Jonin in the village, and there's no such person.

After gathering all the available information, Hoshino Yu felt somewhat relieved, as long as it wasn't Root looking for him.

I've already got the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, and I can even level it up. As long as I play it safe and develop my skills, I'll be able to call the shots in the ninja world in the future.

Thinking of this, Hoshino Yu turned his head to look at Minato with a helpless expression. Minato was also looking at him with a hint of worry on his face.

Their eyes met, and the two responded in unison to the Chunin in front of them:

"Yes, senior!"

(PS: The power/speed/body/spirit/hand seal here are not related to those in the formula book. The spirit in the book of the master is energy, which is related to the amount of chakra. The power here represents mental strength, body represents physical strength and constitution, and hand seal is the speed of hand seals. The others are the same. Also, 10 is not the upper limit. Just understand the general idea.)
