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

Chapter 3 What to do if the Devil Fruit tastes too bad?

After saying goodbye to the Water Pillar, the two followed the Chunin and soon arrived at the location of the school building.

During this time, Yu and Minato did try to talk, but the ninja in front of them were too close, so they eventually chose to communicate by exchanging glances.

Minato Namikaze: "This is all Yu-kun's fault. I should be fine."

Hoshino Yu: "You're really not loyal, kid. You know you should share the burden, but you're a deserter in a war..."

Minato could only chuckle and shake his head helplessly.

Upon entering the teaching building, under the gaze of the returning ninja teachers, the two straightened up and followed the Chunin to the principal's office.

"Knock knock knock—"

"Lord Hokage, the two have been brought here."

"Okay, come in."

Upon opening the door, besides Hiruzen Sarutobi sitting in the main seat, one could see the familiar first assistant and two advisors.

Of the former guards and disciples of the Second Hokage, Uchiha Kagami sacrificed himself early in life, and Akimichi Torifu had no interest in high-ranking positions and retired to the second line. Now, only these four remain in power in Konoha.

The four people at this moment were not as old as they would be in later generations; they were all in their prime.

Such a big fuss? Surely not...

Hoshino Yu felt somewhat uncertain as she and Minato entered the house.

"Greetings, Lord Hokage! Greetings, all three of you!" *2

"Hehe~ Yu, Minato, don't be nervous." Hiruzen Sarutobi, sitting in the main seat, smiled kindly at the two of them and said, "Especially you, Yu. Your One Piece manga is very well written, I'm following it too."

"Hi!" *2

"Thank you for your support, Hokage-sama!" Hoshino Yuu stood up straight.

He never expected that Hiruzen Sarutobi, that old guy, would actually be following his book.

They were indeed being watched in advance.

After the joke, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at his three assistants, then turned back to Yu Hoshino and said:

"Yu, what are your thoughts on the village, and what are your thoughts on the Will of Fire?"

So that's what you wanted to ask. If you don't pursue the controversy at the ceremony, then things will be much easier.

Hoshino Yu pretended to think, looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen's expectant eyes, before answering after a moment:

"Lord Hokage, my view is very simple: be loyal to the country, be loyal to Konoha, and be loyal to the people."

"I will protect this village in my own way," he said, pausing for a moment before continuing, "but what I'm protecting... is every single person inside, laughing and crying, striving to live, and the tomorrows yet to be born, which are worth looking forward to."

Standing to the side, Minato Namikaze turned to look at Yu Hoshino, a glint in his eyes, his thoughts unreadable.

"Is this your answer, Yu?" Hiruzen Sarutobi rested his chin on his hands, seemingly deep in thought, before chuckling softly after a moment, "A very good answer."

Then he looked at Minato Namikaze with some anticipation:

"And you, Minato?"

"Hokage-sama, to me, Konoha is an extension of 'home,' and I agree with Yu-kun's answer..."

......

After the two finished answering and left, Hiruzen Sarutobi stood up, looked at the village outside the window, a pipe dangling from his mouth, and a smile on his face.

In his eyes, Hoshino Yu and Minato had already shown great maturity, even exhibiting adult ways of thinking.

Although he was still a child at heart, he had already made a deep impression on him.

Given time, if they grow up healthy, they will surely become the backbone of the village.

"Hiruzen, leave these two children to me. Once they enter Root, I will definitely be able to forge them into two sharp blades in the hands of Konoha." At this moment, Shimura Danzo's deep and dry voice suddenly spoke.

"Danzo, don't consider these two children for now. After all, they are only six years old. We can talk about other things when they are older."

"Six years old is the perfect time to lay a solid foundation. The situation is a bit tense right now, so teaching for a few years will make it easier to control..."

"You don't need to think about this anymore. They should be standing in the sunlight now, absorbing the nourishment of light to grow strong." Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled smoke as he turned to look at him calmly.

"Hmph, woman's compassion!"

Danzo, annoyed by being interrupted, glared at Hiruzen Sarutobi for a moment, then glanced at the other two advisors before letting out a cold snort and turning away.

As he reached the door, he said in a low, dissatisfied voice:

"Hiruzen, you'll regret this."

"boom--"

Danzo then slammed the door and left.

Seeing this, Koharu frowned and whispered:

"Hiruzen, Danzo's words, though extreme, are not without merit..."

Mitokado Yan shook his head:

"A child's growth cannot be measured by 'control'."

......

After leaving the office, Hoshino Yu and Namikaze Minato headed towards the classroom.

"Yu-kun's understanding of the Will of Fire is truly profound~"

"What's the big deal? I have plenty of answers; I can pull out any one of them to solve the problem."

The two chatted all the way and soon arrived at the classroom.

The ninja teacher hadn't arrived in the classroom yet, but the front row seats were full.

Seeing this, the two could only choose to sit in the second row.

However, before they could go forward, they heard a voice coming from the side.

"Hey, you blond, sissy with the pineapple head, are you with that arrogant kid who writes novels?"

"If you know what's good for you, stay away from him, or he'll beat you up too."

"A cocky kid who writes novels? A blond, sissy with a pineapple head?" Hoshino Yu turned to look at Minato, suppressing a laugh, and said, "Pfft, you know what, he really does look like one, hahaha!"

Seeing this, Minato rubbed his hair helplessly.

"Yeah, there's really nothing we can do..."

Upon hearing this, the troublemaking kids all started laughing.

"Hahaha~"

"Hahaha~"

Hoshino Yu laughed for a while, then stopped laughing when Minato looked at him with a somewhat resentful expression. At the same time, he glanced at the child who was the leader and half a head taller than him.

Snapped--

The crisp sound rang out in the classroom, silencing everyone around.

Caught off guard, he slapped the leader across the face, causing the little brat to fall to the ground.

"Didn't your parents teach you that sometimes being too talkative can lead to death?"

This slap shocked the children around him. At this moment, Hoshino Yu still had his right hand raised high, maintaining the slapping posture, while his expression was cold and stern.

Seeing that everyone was speechless, and only the child was left covering his cheek and wailing on the ground, he withdrew his right hand and ran his hand through his dark hair.

"Don't think I'm easy to talk to. I'm a hair gel guy too."

"You...you dare!" The child on the ground covered his face, gritting his teeth, and glared angrily at Hoshino Yu, who was smoothing his hair back. "Beat them up!"

......

A moment later.

The male students in the class were mostly filled with fear and apprehension, while the female students were already overflowing with romantic prospects.

A few little kids lay sprawled on the ground groaning, while the rest huddled behind them, trembling with fear.

"Yu-kun is so handsome!"

"I prefer the other blond classmate a bit more..."

Those whose faces were swollen like pig heads were hit by Yu, while those who were slapped by Minato only had slightly red cheeks.

Hoshino Yu rubbed the back of his hand, his eyes full of disdain.

Both Minato and I had refined our chakra. Although our taijutsu was not very serious, we often sparred for fun, and beating up a few six-year-old kids who had just entered school was a piece of cake.

It's just that my tender hands hurt a little.

"You think having more people is useful? How naive."

Upon hearing this, Minato sighed, patted his sleeves, and said with a hint of helplessness:

"Everyone, I'm very sorry, but from today onwards we are classmates, so we should get along well."

Although Minato's words carried a hint of apology, they were interpreted in a different way by others.

This commotion also attracted the attention of the teacher who taught their class.

A child with one side of his face swollen came rushing over, accompanied by a ninja wearing a green vest, a headband, and a cloth covering his head.

"Yuichi-sensei! It's those two!"

Looking at the situation in the classroom, Yuichi Tanaka felt a headache coming on.

If the first day of school is like this, what will it be like later?

However, as someone with experience, he wouldn't condemn them lightly. He turned to Hoshino Yu and Minato and asked seriously:

"Yu, Minato, what's going on?"

He knew all the students' personal information, so he naturally knew what each person looked like and their name.

"Ah~ Teacher, some people's mouths were itchy and some people's hands were itchy, and that's how it ended up like this," Yu said, feigning innocence.

Finally, after the two explained, Yuichi Tanaka learned the reason for the matter.

I didn't say much, just told them to get along well in the future.

After that, until they got home from school, no one dared to cause any more trouble for the two of them.

Hoshino Yu and Minato chatted and laughed along the way, eating and training together before heading home as night fell.

Although their homes were right next to each other.

......

In the early hours of the morning, Hoshino Yu, lying in bed and huddled under the covers, was examining a large, strangely shaped, yellow fruit that emitted a faint glow, with a knife beside him.

"It seems only the first person to eat it will gain the power, and it tastes awful..."

Thinking back to the reactions of those people after eating Devil Fruits in the original manga, Hoshino Yu felt a little scared.

Even someone as single-minded as Luffy thought it tasted bad, which shows that the flavor was really just average.

But there's no way around it; without eating, there's no way to survive in this ninja world.

Thinking of this, he decisively picked up the long knife next to him, peeled off the outer skin, cut off a small piece and put it in his mouth.

"This stuff...it's awful..."

Hoshino Yu forced himself to endure the strange taste, covered his mouth tightly, and swallowed the small piece of fruit.

Fortunately, with Devil Fruits, you gain the fruit's power as soon as you take the first bite.

After swallowing it, Hoshino Yu felt a numbness in her mouth, and at the same time, a warm current seemed to surge through her body.

Before he could react, small arcs of electricity began to appear on his body, flashing continuously.

Hoshino Yu knew that the Rumble-Rumble Fruit was taking effect, slowly transforming his body, and the small amount of chakra he originally had was becoming more active.

As his body's power continued to increase, and he felt hot all over, the blanket caught fire instantly upon contact with the electric arc on his body.

Holy crap!

Hoshino Yu didn't have time to continue sensing; she quickly grabbed the burning blanket, picked up the fruit, and ran to the toilet.

However, he was much faster than before, and his vision became blurry. Before he could react, he was in the toilet and almost bumped into the toilet bowl.

After the fire was extinguished, the abnormalities that had appeared in his body began to return to normal.

At the same time, the personal attribute panel in his mind also underwent some changes, especially the amount of chakra and the five-dimensional data.

Chakra level: 0.7 (low amount)

【五维:力0.8/速1.1/体1.1/精6/印0.7】

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

"Hiss, Devil Fruits are terrifyingly powerful; they instantly boosted all of my body's stats..."

Hoshino Yu was in the restroom at the moment, looking at the obviously changed data panel and her own suddenly increased power, feeling a little uncomfortable.

After a moment, once the electric arcs on his body had completely disappeared, he began to try to use the power brought by the Rumble-Rumble Fruit.

The first one is elementalization!

In the Naruto world without Seastone, this ability would be a complete bug, granting complete immunity to physical attacks.

However, sealing techniques and illusions are another matter; those are bugs on a different level.

As for being afraid of water?

It's not like the One Piece world is interconnected, so nothing will happen.

Other abilities, however, will eventually need to be developed.

The physical constitution of the characters in One Piece cannot be generalized to that of the ninja world. Mental strength is not a concern, but physical constitution needs to be trained.

Even Luffy has to evolve slowly, let alone a six-year-old like myself?

Once my body is stronger from the electric shocks and I'm older enough to withstand the physical strain from that powerful force, I can do whatever I want.

Looking at his body glowing with blue light and his rapidly declining stamina, Hoshino Yu was both excited and surprised.

Fortunately, it's not related to chakra, but you definitely need to train your physique.

At this moment, a thousand words cannot express the meaning of a single word.

"ox."

After dispelling the elemental transformation, Hoshino Yu first crushed the remaining fruit and flushed it down the toilet.

The effects of a Devil Fruit take effect from the very first bite. Since I already have the power, there's no point in eating more, and it tastes terrible anyway, so I might as well throw it away.

Then he began to adapt to the rapid increase in speed indoors, and crashed into the wall several times. Fortunately, he was able to control it and did not get bruised or swollen, but his limbs and torso suffered.

With his own strength and control over lightning, he gradually adapted under the influence of his powerful mental strength.

At the same time, the character panel in my mind was refreshed again.

[You have received the main quest: Help the future Pirate King, Monkey D. Luffy, obtain his first real ship and aid him in sailing the seas.]

[Task Reward: 0.2 Free Attribute Points.]

Current progress: 0%

"Is this system at odds with Luffy? Getting to know him isn't enough, it also has to build him a ship? It also has to help him navigate the seas? Should it find him a crew too?"

"Finding Luffy is finding the Water Pillar, so now the Water Pillar is equivalent to Luffy. Does this establish the Water Pillar's identity?"

After practicing until almost dawn, Hoshino Yu lay on the bed, her whole body aching, and mentally complained.

"However, aside from his appearance, this water pillar's personality is indeed quite similar to Luffy's..."

He murmured a few words, then felt a little tired and soon fell asleep.

During that time, he had a dream.

In my dream, Liu Haizhu was chasing me for several blocks with a pen, demanding his autograph.
