Night fell over the Land of Fire.
Outside the Hidden Leaf Village, deep within the Uchiha compound, a young boy of about three or four lay on a tatami mat, his body trembling as sweat poured down his face. He looked like he was trapped in a nightmare—one far too vivid for a child his age.
"The Nine-Tails rampaged…"
"The Fourth Hokage… died in battle…"
"The entire clan… forced to relocate…"
"Who am I… I'm… Uchiha Genichi…"
The chaotic flashes of dream and memory shattered like glass. The boy's eyes snapped open—crimson Sharingan spinning faintly in the dim light.
Grimacing at the sharp pain stabbing through his head, Uchiha Genichi slowly pushed himself up from the floor, panting lightly.
"…Can't believe it. I actually got transmigrated into the Naruto world."
He glanced around the room—wooden sliding doors, ink paintings, tatami floors—all distinctly Japanese in style. Then his gaze landed on the mirror nearby. The reflection staring back at him had a single-tomoe Sharingan.
Genichi let out a dry laugh. "And I even became Shisui Uchiha's cousin. Great. Just great."
Before he could process what that meant, a metallic ding echoed inside his mind.
[Ding! Host consciousness detected. Multiverse Extraction System initializing!]
A faint blue light screen materialized in front of him, hovering midair.
[Host: Uchiha Genichi]
[Current World: Naruto]
[Cards: 0][Items: 0][Emotion Points: 0]
At the same time, information about the "Multiverse Extraction System" flooded his mind—rules, functions, and usage methods unfolding like a digital manual.
About five minutes later, he exhaled slowly. "So that's how it works…"
In short, the system collected emotion points from living beings—fear, anger, joy, whatever—and used them to draw random cards and items from different worlds. Those, in turn, would strengthen him.
Just as Genichi finished understanding the basics, the system chimed again.
[Ding! Newbie Gift Pack detected. Would you like to open it?]
"Open it!" he replied immediately.

Genichi's lips curved into a grin. "Not bad at all. Two character cards and a powerful tool right out of the gate."
Without hesitation, he selected the Cerberus card.
As the card activated, a warm, golden light enveloped his body. Power surged through him—deep, primal, and strangely familiar. He could feel the elements of fire and earth resonate with him, like old friends eager to obey.
"Flight!"
A flash of gold burst from his feet, and his body slowly lifted off the floor. For a few seconds, he hovered in the air, then glided around the room in wide circles before landing gently.
After savoring the thrill of flight and testing his new strength, Genichi's mind was already racing ahead.
What he needed next was emotion points—and the best way to collect those… was to stir up some drama.
A mischievous glint flickered in his Sharingan. "Guess it's time to make things a little interesting."
"....."
