“Ah!!!”
Above a city enduring constant heavy rain, raindrops continuously fell onto the road.
Suddenly, a massive raindrop fell from the sky, slamming straight onto a man wearing a dark red robe.
The man didn’t even have time to let out a wail before he was smashed into a pulp of flesh.
This massive raindrop swallowed and blinked its eyes.
It was actually a person!
“What the fuck…” He looked at the puddle of flesh beneath his butt and couldn’t help but curse.
He quickly stood up from the ground.
Fortunately, he was a mercenary and had seen such bloody messes before.
Otherwise, he might have been scared unconscious.
“Black robe with dark red clouds.
Is this guy doing cosplay?”
He looked at the clothes on the puddle of flesh.
Wasn’t that the Akatsuki Organization robe from Naruto, the anime he always watched?
“Regardless, I’m truly sorry.
A life for a life.
If it weren’t for you, I would’ve been done for.
If I ever get the chance to find out who you are, I’ll take care of your wife for you!
Don’t worry!”
“Swish…
swish…” Just then, a rustling sound reached the man’s ears.
He looked up and was instantly stunned, even more surprised than when he saw the puddle of flesh.
“Pain!?”
Weren’t these five people right in front of him the puppets of the Akatsuki Organization leader, Nagato, the Pains?
“You know us?” The short-haired Deva Path Pain in the lead looked at him, very confused.
His identity was supposed to be completely classified.
It was impossible for anyone to know.
How did this person in front of him find out?
“What…
what do you mean how did I know?
I was saying ‘Peh!'”
He realized he had to play dumb.
In an instant, he understood.
He had transmigrated!
Although his combat power was quite decent, fighting against ninjas, especially those with the Rinnegan, wouldn’t that just be asking for a beating?
“You must die here.”
Deva Path Pain frowned, and black receivers slid out from the sleeves of the five Pains as they charged toward him.
Just then, a sound rang in his ears.
[Beep, beep, beep…
Transmigrator detected.
Modifier activated.
Danger detected for transmigrator.
Initiating one-time forced teleportation…
Beep, beep, beep…]
Then, his vision went black, and he immediately vanished from the spot.
The black receivers of the five Pains missed their target.
“Space-time ninjutsu?” Deva Path Pain wondered, looking at the spot where he had disappeared.
“Why the hell am I flying again!”
At this moment, the man was falling from the sky, but this time the landing spot was much lower, about the height of a tree.
As soon as he finished speaking, he hit the ground with a thud…
“Ouch, ouch, ouch…”
The man climbed up from the ground, holding his waist as he sat down.
“What is all this…”
“Who are you!” As soon as the man sat up, a voice came from behind him.
He immediately turned to look, his pupils dilating.
In front of him were a middle-aged man with white hair and a yellow-haired youth.
“Jiraiya and Naruto!
Today is just too exciting…” the man whispered to himself.
“Looking at your attire, you don’t look like someone from Konohagakure.
What are you doing in the Konoha forest?” Jiraiya stared at the man and asked, while shielding Naruto behind him, looking ready to fight.
“A good guy.
I’m a very good guy!” The man said quickly, stepping back a few paces.
He felt the ground under his feet was wet, and looking back, it was a river.
The water was extremely clear, and in the reflection of the river, he discovered that his appearance had changed.
He was now a youth of seventeen or eighteen.
“He fell from the tree.
Could he have been picking fruit to eat?” Naruto looked at the tree, and there were indeed some unknown fruits on it.
“What’s your name, where are you from, what is your purpose in coming to Konoha, when did you arrive in Konoha, what are you doing here?
Speak!” Jiraiya threw a barrage of questions at the man.
“This…
uh…
My name is Shin.
I’m from the Land of Fire, an orphan whose family was destroyed.
I’ve been wandering around.
I was just passing by here, and I was hungry, so I climbed up to pick some fruit…
but I lost my footing and fell.” Shin fabricated a story on the spot.
“You’re stuttering.
I think you’d better come back to Konoha with me for questioning.”
As Jiraiya spoke, he flicked his white hair, raised two fingers, and formed a seal.
His white hair instantly elongated and directly bound Shin.
“No chakra fluctuations?”
At this moment, Jiraiya sensed that Shin had no chakra fluctuations, and his guard dropped by half.
Maybe this kid was telling the truth, but he still had to be brought back.
After all, this place was too close to Konohagakure, and it was hard to guarantee he wasn’t a spy.
“Naruto, tie him up.” Jiraiya then said to Naruto.
“Got it.” Naruto nodded, took a rope from his bag, walked up, and tied Shin’s hands.
Only then did Jiraiya retract his hair.
“I just got back from training and I’m already catching a spy.
Grandma Tsunade will praise you, Pervy Sage.”
“I told you, don’t call me that name in front of outsiders!” Jiraiya shouted at Naruto.
“Let’s go back quickly.”
Then Jiraiya led the way, while Naruto followed behind, leading Shin with the rope.
[Beep, beep, beep…

Just as Shin was listlessly walking behind Jiraiya and Naruto, a panel appeared in his mind, and a woman’s voice echoed in Shin’s head.
Shin was immediately interested.
He didn’t need to close his eyes.
He could operate this so-called Modifier just by imagining it in his mind.
The Modifier provided many options: Strength, Agility, Intelligence, Physical Strength, and so on.
It was dazzling to look at.
Moreover, it wasn’t just himself.
Even external objects could be modified, such as money…
but he didn’t have a single coin on him right now, so there was nothing to modify.
Shin browsed through the Modifier in his mind, and finally, his gaze settled on Learning Ability.
If he maxed out this talent, surely his learning ability would be even more powerful than the Sharingan!
Shin decisively chose Learning Ability.
The Learning Ability value on the Modifier panel, originally at 60, started skyrocketing.
The number rose rapidly, and five seconds later, it showed Shin’s Learning Ability as: 9999!
“Awesome!” Shin couldn’t help but shout.
Jiraiya and Naruto stopped and looked back, finding that Shin seemed so excited he was about to jump…
“Pervy Sage…
is this guy stupid?
He’s so happy even after being caught.” Naruto glanced at Shin and whispered to Jiraiya.
“Looks like it.” Jiraiya also glanced at Shin and nodded.
Shin didn’t notice their gazes at all at this moment, and even walked forward on his own…
