"All I can remember is sitting on a bus, after being diagnosed with a brain tumor that could take my life at any time." Standing before the young man was nothing but darkness, he stood there for what felt like an entirety when he heard a chime."h.e.l.lo child, due to your selfless action of saving those people on the bus you have ama.s.sed a large amount of Karma points." The mysterious voice that sounded nether male or female rang in the young boy"s soul.
"That"s right! My name is Aron Welks Smith! I was born in America and was 22 when I died. A terrorist attempted to hijack the bus while it was driving over a bridge. Since I was sitting at the front I pulled the door open and tackled the man off the bus. As we hit the water he detonated the explosives killing us both." Although it took awhile to recall, once he did thanks to the fact he was born with an edict memory, he remembered everything down to the littlest detail.
"The people that you saved chose to live better lives the moment of your sacrifice; they went on to perform many deeds in the name of charity, and in your memory. Thirty years later one of the survivor"s children was inspired by your tale, and became the future president of the U.S.A."
Kibo gasped as the voice continued, "Following his leadership peace soon began to spread to the rest of the world, leading mankind to a far more prosperous future than what was in store."
The strange voice continued."Due to the ma.s.sive amounts of Karmic points you"ve ama.s.sed you can choose to be reincarnated to Earth, sent to a Heaven realm to live out the rest of eternity in peace. Or you can be reincarnated into a Dream Realm world with you memories intact."
"Dream Realm Word, what"s that?" Aron asked.
"Every known story imagined creates a pocket reality that further stabilizes the rest of the universe, the imaginations of humans are the most important thing in existence; the more creative your species is the more stable the universe becomes."
"So things like the Dragon Ball universe and the Naruto Universe are real, and I get to keep my memories?"
"In a manner of speaking; yes."
"I want to be born into the Naruto Universe." Aron loved that series, although he didn"t like to how Naruto became a side character and a bad father in the Boruto saga, but if he was going there he could change all that by helping the economy become more self sufficient; which meant less paper work and giving Naruto more time to spend with his family. Aron wanted to be a scientist of many studies, so he had taken many different cla.s.ses at his university and because of his 230 IQ he had no problem acing every cla.s.s; this included economics and engineering, if he could give Konoha the world"s first advanced CPU than they could kiss goodbye to the last paper ever needed to be filed.
"What clan, region, and clan do you wish to be born in?" The voice asked
Aron thought hard, "I want to be born in the land of the Bears, at the Village Hidden amongst the Stars. As for clan, can I be born with a new bloodline that"s suitable for absorbing Star Chakra?"
"Yes. I"ll make you the son of the Aka Hoshi, and Niwa Hoshi. You will be born one year before the Kyuubi attacks the village."
The voice then gave out a warning "By doing this, I"ve altered the timeline slightly so you could be born, you should know that there will be some small differences in the world you"re joining. There is also much about the Naruto Universe that Kishimoto did not reveal, so there is a great deal of information pertaining to the secrets of this world."
"Does this mean that the whole timeline is different than what Kishimoto wrote?" Kibo asked "No, the main plot points are destined to happen, it is little stuff like the movies, games, and other material that have really changed the main timeline, the actualized Naruto Universe is far more expansive than you realize. This is why I ask if you are sure you want to reincarnate there?"
Aron laughed as he said "What fun would knowing everything be, at least this way there will be some surprise."
The voiced seemed to have chuckled and said "As a bonus gift I will give you a system to help promote your strength in that realm and a.s.sist with your life."
Before he could ask what kind of System, he was snapped into a new reality; he couldn"t see or hear that G.o.d"s voice anymore so he a.s.sumed he was already reborn, what the G.o.d didn"t tell him was that it would be as a fetus.
He wanted to yell but had no vocal cords to shout, "d.a.m.n that G.o.d, couldn"t he have warned me I"d have to spend up to nine months as this?!" The young unborn version of him let out a mental sigh, the reason he had chosen this place was because it was from the filler arc and he didn"t want to mess up Naruto"s origin. Although he wished he could do something for his parents guessing from how little time he had to train he didn"t think it would be possible.
"Hey System; are you there?" A chime ringed in his head, "Reading Host"s Data!" the mechanic voice spoke as a screen appeared in his mind.

Items
• G.o.d"s Starting Pack
"Ohh there"s a pack, but before I open, hey System? What else can you do?"
"Most of my functions are sealed at the moment, however when I can be of help I will let you know."
"So you don"t know yet."
"Correct! I am the multipurpose system, given to one who has a chance to become a G.o.d. I have many functions to guide you on this path."
"Okay then, open the starter pack!"
"Opening starter pack." The mechanic voice chimed.
•Star G.o.d"s Chakra Cultivation Manual; •10x Full Healing Pills; •10x Full Chakra Recovery Pills; •Map of the World; •Portable Training Room; •Profession Relic
"Whoa not a bad starting pack, wait Cultivation Manual, like from the Wuxia Novels?" Kibo thought for a second before thinking "I guess it makes sense, after all a lot of characters in Naruto were based on the Chinese story Journey to the West. System can you display the information in the manual, since I can"t touch it yet?" A glowing set of scrolls were hovering in the System"s Item Storage.
A wave of information surged into his consciousness as he began to smile, this cultivation method was insane; if he practiced it to mastery he could draw and store ma.s.sive amounts of Natural Energies and Chakra from every star in sky. Not only was Natural Energy gained from stars powerful, it was also extremely pure and neutral energy. The first step forming his lower Dantian!
Unlike Naruto who had to use Natural Energy contaminated with Earth force the MC wouldn"t have to worry about turning into stone. Everything in Nature carries its own elemental force, such earth, water, fire, and wind. If one used Wind natural energy to achieve the sage realm they risk turning to dust and ga.s.ses. If they try it with water they could end up as sludge, fire burns you to a crisp and earth turns you to stone. Star energy is neutral in its nature, and the most suited for humans to train with. Even the great sage of the six paths used the natural energy from the stars to power his body. Think of Star Chakra like a blank canvas, it can fit every color on it without disturbing the other elements.
"If I continued to practice this cultivation technique, I could even rival the Tailed Beasts" in Chakra levels someday." Kibo felt giddy as he thought of the power he would wield someday.
The Fetus started to practice the technique and began gathering the Radiation left over in his mother"s body. In return the poisonous radiation that had soaked throughout his mother"s body began to recede and her health began to improve.
His parents were baffled more so his Father; because he knew what extreme exposure from the radiation did to the human body, having a child should be impossible in his wife"s condition. His grandfather the current Hoshikage learned of this and put aside his feud with his son-in-law, over appealing the use of the Star of Hoshi. Having a child that could be immune to the star"s radiation could be what he had been in search of for so long. So the next nine months pa.s.sed by slowly, thanks to his hard work he had mastered the cultivation manual, and his body had mostly formed.
His screen now read.

"Three more days until I"m born? Well then I wonder what my name"s gonna be?" These next few days were unimaginably slow as his antic.i.p.ation got the better of him, finally the day had come, the birth had pa.s.sed without a problem, seeing that he was finally out he tried to shout "I"M FREE!" but all that came out was "WA WAAA!"
His body didn"t have fully developed vocal cords, so no matter how he tried to speak only jumbled "ahhs" and "ohhs" could be heard. After his mother took him into her arms she cried happily. Seeing her for the first time, our newly born hero thought she was very beautiful, at least comparable to G.o.ddesses" of Konoha. She had fair pink skin, long brown hair and gorgeous blue pupil-less eyes, her smile right know was akin to an angle that could melt the hearts of millions. "My little hopeful star, I want to name him Kibo, Kibo Hoshi will be his full name." Niwa said with tears of joy in her eyes.
The Father stood next to them and was crying as well when he said "Yes, what a great name." Aka"s tall thin body appeared to be under a lot of suffering, the radiation in his body was slowly, but surely it was killing him. Right now there aren"t any immediate effects because Aka Hoshi had mastered the Mysterious Peac.o.c.k Technique, giving him at least another 20 years before his organs turned to dust. His father had long blue grey hair and dark blue eyes, and was fairly handsome and appeared quite young. If it wasn"t for his pale complexion he would be far more appealing to the eyes.
The first year was simple enough, he had already begun to walk and even managed to make out a few words like mom and dad, in his previous life he pretty much lived alone, his mother died giving birth to him, and his father ran out on him when he was an infant. Kibo had never experienced such love and care before, and he rather enjoyed it.
The attack of the Kyuubi had pa.s.sed and Naruto was born this year. Even though he couldn"t help he made a wish on his constellation; he wished that he could Naruto"s parents to somehow survive.
This tribe had a unique tradition, after the children born in the village they would be given a birth constellation based on the season and month they were born on. He was born during the fall and third month of it, giving him the Star Wolf constellation. On ones birth day they make a wish on that constellation similar to how earthling"s wish on random falling stars or blowing out candles.
Unknown to him when he turned his back to enjoy his birth day cake, his constellation began to brighten for only a brief moment.
The Second Year he had begun speaking full sentences, and could even begin his Ninja training earlier than normal kids. Although this would be considered strange on earth, the Chakra in this realm accelerated the brain and body"s development at a much greater rate; this is why even though Naruto was only three he could remember how he was treated as a child so vividly.
His parents were ecstatic to have such a genius child, usually one would have to wait until they were 4 to begin training, yet Kibo had an incredible talent to allow him to start in half the time, his father had given him the Mysterious Peac.o.c.k Technique to train in, when suddenly Kibo"s system proceeded to freak out.
"Warning; the cultivation technique is damaged and can cause serious harm to the individual whom practices such a technique, side effects include organ failure, accelerated aging, Chakra contamination, and mental hazards such as tumors, and personality altering effects."
"Whoa, no wonder so many of our people are dying, this technique is worthless." He thought to himself before he could advise his father the System continued.
"Ding! Quest Activated! Repair and Remake the Mysterious Peac.o.c.k Technique!"
"Reward: 100 System Points and unlock shop option."
"Oh so you give out quests? What can I purchase with the system shop?"
"Common to Forgotten Jutsus, weapons, armor, Chakra recovery pills, magical herbs and resources that only belong to this universe, and much more."
"Okay then!" Kibo thought as he turned to his father, and said "Thanks Dad! I make sure to study it well." His father rustled his hair and laughed.
"Alright you train I have to go speak to your Grandfather." Kibo smiled while frowning on the inside.
"My Grandfather would have killed by you if not for my birth." Kibo kept these thoughts to himself. "Right now he is still my Father, and he hasn"t done anything yet. Thinking of my situation if not for me being born Aka Hoshi would have lost his wife and child, so I won"t hate for something he hasn"t done; after all he is my father now."
Kibo turned back to his desk and began to look over the technique, after 10 arduous hours he had finally discovered the crux of the problem Thanks to his understanding of his own physique and his Star G.o.d"s Cultivation Technique; which was a far more advanced, and complex technique compared to the Peac.o.c.k Technique; altering and improving this technique was a simple matter for him, he even borrowed some direct pa.s.sages from the Star G.o.d"s Chakra Cultivation Technique, and merged it together with the Mysterious Peac.o.c.k Technique.
"So because of the pathways they send the star energy through is of poor understanding it ends up clashing with the host"s natural Chakra damaging its pract.i.tioner"s internal organs. If they cycled the energy repeatedly like this before they merge it into their Chakra pool then the radiation would no longer harm their bodies. In fact it can turn their Chakra Pool into a Dantian, and even improve their health giving them a somewhat quasi sage body, thus in return making them perfectly suitable for practicing Natural Energy, and Sen-Jutsu."
"Congratulations to host for creating an S ranked Cultivation Technique. Please name it."
"It"s an S Rank Technique!?" He shouted "Yes the technique was first created by the first Hoshikage, although he was rather unknown, he could even give Madara a run for his money. How else could one boast enough power to start a hidden village on his own? Although the technique was heavily damaged it could still allow talented Ninja to have Bijuu levels of Chakra; that in of itself made it an A Rank level Technique. You"ve corrected the problems and even managed to improve the techniques effectiveness by twice its original amount; thus making it an S Ranked Cultivation Technique."
Kibo thought long and hard, when he said, "The name will be Great Starheart Technique."
"Congratulations to host for completing the quest! Since The Great Starheart Technique is an S ranked ability the Host is awarded an additional 1,000 Sys Points; and the Shop has been opened."
Being elated for the bonus points he now had 1,100 Sys Pts. when he asked "What else can I use the System Points for?"
"The host can use it to increase my storage s.p.a.ce or your skill points for job related skills, such as blacksmithing or stealth etc. etc."
"What like a gamer in a RPG?"
"Similar yes, Host has to unlock skills before he can use points though."
"How do I unlock them?"
"Host can achieve this gaining the basic understanding and proficiency with the skill. The more the Host learns the more skills will be created."
"This system is still a Cheat, yet at least it"s somewhat balanced. I think this life is gonna be a lot of fun." Kibo smiled to himself. He then got up from his desk and headed to his father"s study, when he got close he heard his Grandparent and his Father arguing.
"No father I"m not appealing to lift the ban completely I just want to see if there are any negative effects on his body. If the slightest thing goes wrong I"ll pull him out immediately."
"This is your own son, his body is far too young to go near that d.a.m.ned stone, and you"ve been using it for a long time; look what it"s done to you! Did you know this place used to be without the miasma that surrounds it, and now because of overexposure the plants and animals are dying? Food and water are becoming scarcer by the day, children are starving!" The Hoshikage Fumed "That thing is cursed! We should have taken up the offer of Konohagakure"s Yondaime to seal that infernal thing."
"Please father just let him see it!" Aka Hoshi pleaded.
Interrupting the conversation the Hoshikage placed his hand up, "Hold on; Kibo how long are you going to ease drop?"
Aka Hoshi turned red, as he son had just heard everything he said, Kibo opened the door and held two scrolls in his hand. When the Hoshikage saw one of the scrolls he fumed "You gave him that technique already? Are you trying to kill my Grandson?" The Hoshikage was seconds away from choking the life out of son in law, when Kibo spoke out "Grandfather, please calm down. I haven"t used the Mysterious Peac.o.c.k technique. It"s damaged after all, here I fixed the problems, with this new Starheart Technique the radiation from the Star Chakra shouldn"t be a problem anymore."
His Grandfather shook his head and laughed, "Alright let me look at this Starheart Technique and grade it for you." His grandpa chuckled like when one does while looking at a child"s drawing; he took back the two scrolls, when he opened the second one his face quickly began to change, he sat down crossed legged and began circulating his Chakra according to Kibo"s methods, as he did so his complexion began to change for the better after an hour of waiting his grandfather began to cough.
A worried expression came across Aka Hoshi"s face as he watched the Hoshikage"s face become pale, seconds later he spat out a dark glob of blood, the bile was almost an entirely black in color, and it let off a foul odor like rotting flesh.
His grandfather"s stature suddenly improved as he looked to his grandson in amazement. "How did you make this?" He asked.
"Mom says I"m blessed, I never forget what I learn, or see. Once she taught me to read, I went through our clans library and spent the last year reading all 10,000 of the books on Chakra training methods. I know where every Chakra point is and what its function is for; after looking at the technique dad gave me I realized it was good but full of imperfections. Mainly involving the incorrect Chakra pa.s.sages being stressed and over used; the original technique was fine up until the Star Chakra tries to merge with our own. I had to resend the energy into a constant cycle and then little by little change our natural Chakra"s base into a single pure type of Chakra, once this happens a Dantian will form inside the body in place of a Chakra pool, instead of the two different Chakras that are always clashing with each other, the Chakra Dantian will act as our new Star Chakra Pool, and become our base Chakra type."
His father and grandfather stood speechless, when Aka Hoshi finally read The Great Starheart Technique he shouted, "My son"s a genius!"
"What was it that was so dangerous I can"t see till I"m older?" Kibo asked, knowing it was the meteorite that fell to earth so long ago. His grandfather smiled, and responded "When you turn 4 I will allow you to see our clan"s treasure."
Aka Hoshi smiled "Father than you agree?"
"Yes. I will agree to your terms, with this new technique the radiation from the object will no longer be a problem, but according to this technique it takes a while to completely change the Chakra Type, not to mention, the higher the Chakra levels the longer it will take convert. So if he practices for at least 2 years I"ll allow him to inspect it."
"Thank you! Thank you my father-in-law!" Aka Hoshi bowed when he turned to Kibo, "So Kibo do you mind if I spread this technique to our clansmen?"
Kibo nodded, "Yes, it shall be our clan"s property from now on. Any of the main or branch family members are free to use it as our main technique. I was wondering Grandpa how do you rate the technique?"
Aka Hoshi looked to him in antic.i.p.ation before hearing his father in law"s opinion "If I had to say S rank; border lining on Sage Art Level."
Aka Hoshi"s hand nearly dropped the scroll as if he were afraid of putting too much pressure on it, "My son is an absolute genius!"
