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

The crimson flames continued to scorch the pond, and only when the water gradually reached a boiling temperature did Hoshino Yu cut off the chakra output.

"Hoo~" Feeling the lingering heat in front of him, he exhaled a light breath.

Don't be fooled by his impressive performance in front of Minato; without his private training, he wouldn't have been able to execute it so smoothly.

"Clap clap clap—"

Minato Namikaze, standing to the side, had a glint in his eyes. He clapped his hands, showing some admiration, but also a hint of suspicion as he asked:

"Yu, did you practice behind my back?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible." Hoshino Yu replied with feigned superiority, without blushing or panting.

"Then what about practicing Lightning Release alone at home the other day?"

"That was just an accident." Seeing Minato scrutinizing him, Hoshino Yu coughed twice, stepped forward, and snatched the ninjutsu scroll from Minato's arms. "It's your turn. Hurry up and give it a try."

Seeing this, Minato narrowed his eyes and glanced at him, then unfolded the remaining white scroll, examined it carefully for a moment, closed it again, and handed it to Hoshino Yu.

Then he walked to the pond and began to try forming hand seals.

The three seals of Xu, Wu, and You are quickly formed.

The chakra within the body was guided by hand seals, and the change in the nature of the wind-style chakra was completed instantly.

"Wind Release: Breakthrough"

Unlike Hoshino Yu before, a strong gust of air shot out from the entrance of Namikaze Minato, instantly creating a strong wind on the pond and making the water surface shimmer.

"Truly worthy of the title of genius, just one glance..." Hoshino Yu thought to himself as he watched Namikaze Minato unleash his ninjutsu, "He's just as much of a genius as the Uchiha who fought seven opponents in the original story."

Seeing this scene, he recalled Uchiha Itachi from the original work, who only needed to glance at his father performing ninjutsu and then forming hand seals to learn it.

Compared to him, his own "pseudo-genius" status is far inferior.

As for Itachi Uchiha and Minato Namikaze, opinions differ on who has greater talent.

The two then tried again, but Minato didn't have much chakra left, and he was already out of breath after two attempts.

With three ninjutsu scrolls, Minato used Wind Release ninjutsu, while the other two didn't react much.

Everyone is born with one or more chakra natures, and it can be said that Minato's current manifest chakra nature is wind.

The official guidebook clearly states that his chakra nature is lightning, wind, fire, yin, and yang.

The others can be considered implicit, and we'll gradually learn about them later.

As for Hoshino Yu, the power granted by the Rumble-Rumble Fruit is far beyond what Lightning Release can compare to.

Lightning Release was merely a cover.

Of course, he can indeed unleash "Lightning Release: Earth Walk".

"Yu is really amazing, he already has two chakra nature transformations," Minato said with a laugh, sitting on the grass and panting. "Looks like I'll have to work harder too!"

Looking at the little sun beside her, Hoshino Yu was about to respond when she heard a whooshing sound behind her.

"Why are you two using ninjutsu here without permission?"

Upon hearing this, the two of them immediately stood up.

Before them stood a Chunin wearing a green vest, who asked them a question with a serious expression.

"Uh..." Hoshino Yu exchanged a glance with Minato and explained, "Senpai, we're first-year students at the Ninja Academy. We happen to have some ninjutsu scrolls passed down in our families, so we couldn't resist coming here to try them out..."

After saying that, Hoshino Yu gave an awkward smile.

At this point, Minato chimed in:

"I'm very sorry, senior, for causing trouble for the village..."

The chunin glanced at the two of them for a moment, and seeing that nothing unexpected had happened, he gave them a few words of reprimand and sent them home.

It wasn't a big deal, and the fact that a first-year student could perform ninjutsu alone without an adult showed his talent, so the chunin wouldn't blame him much.

However, sensing the surrounding chakra fluctuations, the Chunin sighed:

"Are kids these days all so gifted?"

......

"Hehehe, those two kids are really something." Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was watching the live broadcast on his crystal ball in the Hokage's office, praised with a smile.

"Lord Hokage, should we...?"

"No, make sure they're safe," Hiruzen Sarutobi said to the ANBU ninja beside him. "The future of the village depends on these new generation children."

"Yes."

......

After emerging from the southern forest, Hoshino Yu and Minato headed straight for BBQ Q.

This was the first time the two had used ninjutsu, and their physical strength was being depleted, so they needed to replenish their energy.

Of course, the one with a physique of 1.3 will continue to deliver Oscar-worthy acting performances.

In the past, people could eat and laugh at the same time, but now all they can do is bury their heads in their food and eat as if they were fighting over it.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, seeing that it was getting dark, the two went their separate ways home.

"Yu, see you tomorrow."

See you tomorrow, Minato.

After greeting Minato, Hoshino Yu took out his key from his backpack, unlocked the door, and went inside.

However, as soon as he entered the room, he noticed something unusual.

"Is he going to mess with me again?" Hoshino Yu frowned slightly, her vigilance heightened as she scanned the dimly lit room.

After carefully turning on the lights, he felt that everything was normal again.

"Sigh, maybe I'm being too sensitive..."

After giving a self-deprecating laugh, Hoshino Yu closed the door.

There's no way around it; living in this kind of world, plus what happened last night, even insensitive people are being molded into sensitive ones.

After going upstairs to his room, he looked around and, finding nothing wrong, sat on the bed to check his personal attributes.

[Name: Hoshino Yuu]

Age: 6

Chakra level: 1.2 (low amount)

【五维：力1.1/速1.3/体1.4/精6.1/印0.9】

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

[Ninja/Taoist/Illusion: Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique, Lightning Release: Earth Walk]

Item: None

[Assignable attribute points: 0.2]

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

"The attributes I gained throughout the day are not as good as when I first ate the Rumble-Rumble Fruit. The fruit's modification to my body should be limited for now."

"The price will likely continue to rise once the fruit is fully developed, perhaps through methods like using lightning to stimulate the body's cells..."

Hoshino Yu looked at her for a moment, then packed her clothes and prepared to take a bath.

However, at that moment, when he inadvertently glanced at the neatly arranged novel manuscript on the bedside table, his doubts were confirmed.

Upon closer inspection, his face appeared somewhat dark.

"Damn it, who touched my novel manuscript?!"

......

The next day.

At 7:30 a.m. sharp, Minato Namikaze stood in front of Yu Hoshino's house.

Before he could even knock, Hoshino Yu opened the door and came out.

"Yu, what's wrong?" Minato Namikaze noticed that Yu Hoshino didn't look too well early in the morning and couldn't help but ask, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, I'm fine," Hoshino Yu said coldly, "it's just that the kunai at home is a little itchy."

He really wanted to kill someone.

He had been cautious enough after what had happened before.

Unexpectedly, after only attending half a day of school, their home was ransacked.

He was able to notice because he always remembered where the manuscript on the bedside table was placed.

But after returning home last night, upon closer inspection, I noticed a slight sign that it had been tampered with.

The mark was extremely well hidden, but the slight deviation of someone taking it and putting it back could not escape his eyes.

However, Hoshino Yu didn't plan to tell Minato, as it would be pointless and would only cause him unnecessary worry.

Based on the masked ninja from the previous night, he guessed that Danzo had his subordinates copy his manuscript.

It couldn't possibly be Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, could it?

While it's possible that Orochimaru is involved, he directly asked me for it, so I doubt he would do such a thing.

Yes, that should be the case.

This pot fits the shadow of the pot.

As for why they wanted to read it, Hoshino Yu guessed it was because of the "devil potion" he wrote about inside, and some of the technological gadgets that piqued their interest.

"I don't feel safe even staying at home... I should probably take some precautions," Hoshino Yu thought to himself as he surveyed the streets. "Since Orochimaru wants to see this too..."

In a short while, he had an idea.

Hiruzen Sarutobi had most likely heard about the ninjutsu talent he had displayed, so he needed to add fuel to the fire and make them take it seriously enough.

Otherwise, based solely on that wildly imaginative idea and the elusive Will of Fire, it probably wouldn't have reached the point where he would pay special attention to it.

As for graduating early, Shuizhu is still studying at school, so they have to do system tasks around him and develop in secret.

Those persistent bastards at the root need to be given something to do.

Otherwise, if these people sneak into his house silently all day long, and something really goes wrong, he might not even know how he died.

They walked together with Minato and soon arrived at the school.

In class, as always, Minato studied diligently, and Yu wrote his novel earnestly.

While writing, Hoshino Yu suddenly stopped writing, thought for a moment, and began to write on the paper about recruiting crew members for "One Piece".

"The reward for finding Luffy back then was the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, but this time the reward is just 'Shave' – does that mean the requirement has been downgraded?"

With a try-it-out mentality, after writing the recruitment notice on a piece of paper, he began to silently recite it to himself:

"I volunteer to become Luffy's crew member..."

Before he could finish reading, the task panel in his mind suddenly reacted.

[You have received the main quest: Help Monkey D. Luffy, recruit a navigator, a sniper, and other crew members to help his power grow.]

[Mission Reward: Naval Type 6 - Shave]

Current progress: 50%

"Pfft~" Hoshino Yu almost burst out laughing when she saw this. "This system really has a lot of bugs."

Seeing the half-complete mission notification, he suppressed a laugh and turned to Minato beside him, whispering:

"Minato, I want to build a 'naval fleet' for Senior Water Pillar, but we're short of crew members. Would you like to join?"

"Naval Fleet?" Minato Namikaze looked at Yu Hoshino with some doubt. Seeing that the other party didn't seem to be joking, he nodded. "I'm fine."

Current progress: 90%

The moment Minato agreed, the mission progress jumped to ninety.

Hoshino Yu's joy was palpable as she gently patted Minato's shoulder, prompting Minato to ask with some suspicion:

"Yu, what are you thinking about now?"

"It's okay, it's okay, let's continue with the lesson~"

After saying that, Hoshino Yu continued writing to finish his manuscript.

When get out of class ended, he took the notice, along with Minato, and went to Class 2 of the third year to find Luffy's Jinchūriki—the Water Pillar.

"Hey! Yu-kun! Minato!" Seeing Hoshino Yu and Minato standing outside the classroom, Mizuhachi's face lit up with joy, and he quickly went out. "Why are you two here?"

Hoshino Yu held up a piece of paper with large characters written on it and waved it in front of the water column:

"Of course, it's to recruit crew members for you."

"Recruiting crew members? Our class doesn't seem interested in going to sea..."

"We don't necessarily have to look in the classroom," Minato said with a smile, seeing the regret on Shuizhu's face. "There are so many people in the school, let's just try posting a notice."

"Yu-kun and I are now considered crew members, Captain."

Water Pillar was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. Looking at Minato's warm smile and then at Hoshino Yu who was nodding slightly, he felt inexplicably moved.

"Alright! Let's give it a try!"

Hoshino Yuuya smiled as he watched the excited water column.

Minato unconditionally supported him, while Mizuki genuinely had that idea.

As for myself, I'm definitely focused on completing the task.

[You have received the main quest: Help Monkey D. Luffy, recruit a navigator, a sniper, and other crew members to help his power grow.]

[Mission Reward: Naval Type 6 - Shave]

Current progress: 100% (Completed)

[Rewards being distributed... The Naval Type 6 - Shave has been issued and added to your personal inventory. Please check your attributes panel.]

Upon completing the mission, Hoshino Yu felt a refreshing sensation in his mind.

Then all the information about "shaving" was poured into his mind.

Before long, he felt that he could use the "Shave" move at any time, after all, his physical attributes were now higher than those of an adult.

"Three people are enough for the beginning? Are there any other recruitment tasks later, such as side quests or the like?"

"After all, there are several people on the pirate ship," Hoshino Yu thought to himself, then looked at the notice in his hand, "If the mission is already completed, why bother posting a notice..."

He decisively tore the notice to shreds and threw it into the trash can, which aroused Shui Zhu's suspicion.

"Yu, what did you just tear up?"

"It's nothing, just some trivial things."

Let's talk about the future later. Why would a respectable person post a notice recruiting teammates for One Piece?

That was kind of awkward.
