A Shaman from the Uzumaki Clan in the World of Naruto

"How do you think?" Keito asked casually, as if wanting to see Reiji's reaction.

"Huh? Well... This... Is it a lot?" Reiji answered with an awkward smile, his hand reflexively scratching his head.

Keito shrugged.

"Really? I think it's still very little," Keito said, his tone sounding like a joke, though there was a hint of seriousness in it.

Reiji could only sigh quietly, choosing not to think too much about Keito's comment.

With steady steps, Reiji moved forward toward the crowd.

Reiji's face turned serious, and his voice was calm yet firm as he began to speak.

"I only need a few people," Reiji said, his eyes scanning the crowd.

"I don't need smart people. I don't need those who are talented. What I need are people who are willing to learn, no matter the circumstances."

His words caused the atmosphere to go silent immediately.

People began exchanging glances, some appeared doubtful, while others began to look uneasy.

"If all of you want to learn," Reiji continued.

"I will accept all of you. However, if any of you are unwilling to learn, if your ego or pride is too big to listen to others, then I invite you to leave now."

Without waiting for a response, Reiji turned and walked back into the Clan Head's residence, leaving the tense atmosphere behind him.

"Who is that kid?" whispered one of them.

"I don't know, but he sounds really arrogant," said another with a cynical tone.

"You're right, that kid looks full of himself," added someone else, their voice full of disdain.

However, some started thinking differently. "But, that kid was brought by the Clan Head himself. We were all gathered because of that boy. Maybe he's someone extraordinary?"

"Extraordinary? He's just an overconfident little kid," replied another skeptical voice.

The conversation continued, and one by one, people began to leave.

Some muttered complaints, while others shook their heads as if feeling their time had been wasted.

In the end, only five people remained.

They stood tall, their faces reflecting determination despite the doubts in their hearts.

Keito, who had been watching from a distance, said nothing.

Keito just smiled faintly, respecting Reiji's request to keep his identity hidden.

Reiji had indeed asked not to be referred to as the mysterious genius who had helped the Uzushio Village all this time.

For Reiji, it was better that only a few people knew the truth for now.

And with the five remaining, a new step began.

...

...

...

Reiji looked at the five who stayed.

Two men and three women of varying ages stood in front of him.

Reiji's gaze was specifically focused on two of them—a man and a woman.

Although Reiji's memory of the small details of the Naruto World was starting to fade, there were some things that remained clear in his mind.

And the faces of these two people were among them.

Fuso and Ise.

Nagato's parents.

For a moment, Reiji was silent.

His thoughts drifted to the future of the Ninja world that he had once known.

These two people, though they appeared ordinary, were part of the chain of fate that would bring about great change.

But Reiji quickly dismissed the thought.

The future that Reiji knew might no longer be relevant.

His presence in this world was enough to alter the course of history.

And unless a group of aliens called Otsutsuki came to disrupt everything, Reiji didn't feel the need to care too much about what would happen.

With a deep breath, Reiji refocused his attention.

The future was a matter for later.

What mattered now was what was in front of him.
