Chapter 6: Stonks

"Now, young Makoto, why were you hiding in the sewers?"

"To escape the village obviously."

…..

…….

………

"Really?"

"Why else would I been in the sewers? I figure, people shit. Shit needs to go somewhere. Shit flow through sewer to somewhere. Therefore, sewer lead to somewhere."

The Hokage close his eyes, sucking in his smoking pipe as he contemplate my wisdom.

"Sometimes I forgot the simplicity of a child's mind.", the old man mutter. "Still, Makoto, you are a citizen of Konoha. You cannot leave the village without permission."

"Well duh. Why else would I walk in sewers?"

"Touché."

Since when Naruto has french language?

"The punishment of deserter is death, young Makoto. You do not want to entertain such notion."

"Sure. Just leave me in F class then."

The Hokage sighed.

"This is an opportunity for a better future, Makoto. Why did you not want to take it?"

Becoz I don't want to be your high value asset, duh. Sure, being in A class means better environment to get stronger, but it also mean you will get sent to dangerous missions. The risk is as high as the reward.

My aim is to have a safe career as an incompetent Genin doing perpetual D ranks for the next 10 years. I'm not playing your military industry complex game.

Sure, in case of war, I would be the first sent to death just to get Intel, but I am counting on that to be my get out of jail ticket by virtue of faking my death. No one would give a crap about yet another count to a Genin Corps death statistic.

In time of peace, which I know would last until Pain's attack, Genin Corps is the safest place to be. Sure there's Orochimaru attack in the middle but I have my plans about that.

"Hokage sama, how can I get promoted when Sasuke hadn't? If anyone deserve to be promoted it would be him."

The Hokage scrunched his face.

"Sasuke's situation is complicated. While I do want him to flourish further, my hands are tied."

Hiruzen is truly the Hokage of all time. For a supposed military dictator, he was kinda a pussy. Why else he kept Danzo and that other 2 irrelevant old people around?

"Well, tough luck. Why did you want to promote me anyway? At best I will just get promoted to D class really. My phys average isn't really that high."

"Do you even understand what is going on with your body, Makoto?"

"I already had the Bees and Birds class."

The Hokage was stunned for a bit. He then recollect himself.

"I mean the power that has awaken within you, Makoto. Do you realize that your chakra is continuously in Lightning nature?"

"So I have Lightning nature. Big deal. That's not that unique."

"No. Makoto, Chakra normally exist In a neutral state. Through jutsu and chakra control, you transmute your chakra into elemental chakra. Your chakra on the other hand, is continuously exist as Lightning chakra. What you have is a Kekkei Genkai."

…..

………

…………….

Motherfucker, the damned writer decides to give me my OC special power just to screw me over isn't he?

You bitch! Just you wait, one day I will shove cactus up your asshole!

"So I can use lightning jutsu easier now. What's the big deal."

"Oh no, it's quite the big deal actually. For one, you can no longer perform jutsu that is not Lightning based anymore"

Oh yea. No wonder I kept zapping myself when trying to do Copy-paste no Jutsu. Great, now how am I supposed to make copies of my manga now?

"Sound like a demerit for me. That's not a promotional material."

The Hokage stroke his short beard smugly.

"Hohoho, yes, it does make you over specialized with Lightning jutsu, but there is advantage for that. For example, how many times had you been struck by Genjutsu?"

"err… never?"

"Makoto, for the past 2 weeks, I had genjutsu specialist trying to trapped you in illusions over 200 times. 100 of those is by Yuuhi Kurenai, our top Genjutsu specialist"

"I sure don't feel like it. Unless, this is a genjutsu. And I've been in matrix this whole time."

"matrix? Never mind. Anyway, most Genjutsu lies in interfering with your brain electrical signals. Your constant Lightning chakra nature prevents most Genjutsu from disrupting your brain signals.l Making you immune to most Genjutsu."

"wow. Immunity to jutsu type that most ninjas doesn't use. How special."

The Hokage coughed over my unamused respond.

Then suddenly, my hand is gripping a senbon.

"That's another one of your new ability. Enhanced reflex and autonomous response. You basically has the reflex of an Uchiha now. And, you also knew where's every of my guard hidden, aren't you? I seen you glanced to everyone's position when you entered my office. They're able to suppress chakra, but no one can hide their bioelectric signature."

"Oh. I thought I just become a regular chakra sensor."

And technically, they can hide their bioelectricy if they wrap themselves in tinfoils, I think. Not that I gonna tell them.

"Your control over the Lightning element will be unprecedented. The academic board is eager to invest to the birth of a new bloodline in Konoha. The Makoto clan Kekkei Genkai, Raiju."

Well shit, they even already named my new power. How the fuck did I even get here. I just jammed a fork into a power plug like an idiot and somehow I have a clan now?

Man, this Writer must be really want me to die.

"Still no. Unless Sasuke get promoted, I'm staying."

"fine.", the Hokage given up.

)))))))))))

"HURRAY TO HOTARU AND SASUKE PROMOTIONS TO A CLASS!"

"Shut up, dobe! You don't need to yell!"

"Hahaha!"

As Sasuke and Naruto banter as they wait their celebratory ramen, I fiddled with the antenna of the radio I brought a long.

Buzz bzzzzz

"Aaaamdkdensjjel"

"Gahh! What is that?!!", Naruto jumped of his seat in terror.

"Oh, I trying to manipulate electromagnetic pulses in order to generate speech through radio. I think I'm getting the hang of this."

"errkkk, keep your creepy experiments in your room, man!"

"Hmmm"

There's many applications I can do with this. I can easily jam radio signals, hell, once I figured it out, I can even use myself as radio antenna and directly convert it into noise and image inside my brain. I am basically an SAO console in human form.

The computer system is still like in the 80s here. But once I am 30 the computers should be advanced enough for me to manipulate through elecrical control to produce my own anime with just thoughts.

Right now tho, I have to settle with just manipulating my brain signals to genjutsu myself to view anime like an AR glasses. It's pretty neat that I can gaslit myself of my view of reality now. I even censored Naruto's face so that I don't have to see his ugly mug.

Having the combination power of Killua and Misaka Mikoto is cool.

Anyway, Sasuke looks really happy for finally getting promoted. Well, as happy an Uchiha looks anyway.

"One Karaage Ramen for Hotaru-kun!"

Ayame placed my order like the perfect person she is. Truly the best waifu in Narutoverse. Naruto is a fool for not marrying her.

"It's gonna be awesome guys! We will be the strongest squad in class A!" Naruto cheered

"As if, Naruto. You're dead last." Sasuke smirked.

"Only in written test! I'm actually the strongest guy in the class!"

"pretty sure you lose to Kiba and Chouji every time." Sasuke added.

I ignored the 2 doofus arguing about 10 years old kids power levels as I savor my ramen. This is good. A fine dish to hype myself up.

Tomorrow, I'm killing Haruno Sakura.
