Naruto: I have shed my snake skin and become a dragon!

It's cloudy on March 6, Konoha forty-five years.

"To put it into perspective, it's the Waking of Insects today, and I don't know if there is such a solar term at this time."

Nara Shikano stood up and came to the window and looked into the yard.

It is early spring, and the trees in the yard have already sprouted buds. At night, some insects are attracted by the candlelight and jump in to burn themselves.

This is the eighteenth year since he came to this world. In addition to being Jingzhe, today is also his birthday.

In his previous life, he was a loyal Naruto fan, but an unexpected car accident caused him to spiral into heaven. His soul traveled to this world and he was reborn as a young master of the Nara clan.

Although it's a bit depressing to die in such an unexplained way, generally speaking, it's still acceptable. After all, this is rebirth in the world of Naruto!

Moreover, he was an orphan, without a father or a mother, so no one would care if he died.

Unfortunately, Luye does not seem to be the child of destiny. He started training at the age of six and was not able to become a genin until he was eighteen years old.

But the tragedy doesn't stop there. Although he looks very handsome, a black birthmark like a long snake extends from his left eye to his right shoulder, running through his entire face.

At first glance it looks terrifying! People dare not look at him directly, which leads to Luye's strength and appearance being useless.

The elders in the family didn't like Lu Ye very much, but this also made him listen to less nagging and became a lot quieter.

Lu Ye walked to the yard, came to the big tree where he often played when he was young, and stroked the rough bark.

The dark clouds that had been brewing all morning began to drizzle at this moment.

"More than half a year has passed since Hatake Sakumo was forced to commit suicide by Danzo's conspiracy. Danzo's power has reached its peak, and even the Hokage can only turn a blind eye."

Then Luye sighed and shook his head: "It's a pity that I am not strong enough to save him."

When the overwhelming abuse swept the entire Konoha Village, only Luye helped Hatake Sakumo speak.

But it is a pity that although he is the eldest son of the Nara clan, his strength is too weak and his influence is too low. No one will listen to a minor character.

In the end, Hatake Sakumo couldn't bear the pressure and committed suicide at home. Kano also attended his funeral, but no one paid attention.

Just as he was about to turn around and go back to the house, Luye was suddenly startled, and a mechanical voice suddenly sounded in his head.

[Congratulations to the host for living in Konoha Village for eighteen years and activating the Shadow Collector System. 】

Lu Ye was stunned for a moment: "System? Why did you come here after eighteen years! Do you know how long I was tortured in Konoha Village!"

At this time, Lu Yeye had mixed feelings and didn't know what to do, but he hadn't made any move yet.

A cold feeling swept through the whole body, a low roar of a poisonous snake when hunting rang in his ears, and in an instant, boundless black mist enveloped Lu Ye.

The remaining chakra in his body was passing away little by little, and as the last trace of chakra disappeared in his body, the snake-shaped birthmark on his face started to move!

Like a real snake, it kept crawling on Lu Ye's body, and finally came to Lu Ye's feet and got into his shadow!

At the same time, the black mist surrounding Lu Ye also gathered towards his shadow!

At this moment, you can clearly see a long black-purple snake coiled in the shadow of Luye, greedily sucking in the surrounding black mist.

When all the black mist was sucked up, the shadow snake crawled along Qiao Feng's legs and onto his arms, constantly spitting out snake messages.

Luye's consciousness gradually recovered, and he was really shocked when he opened his eyes!

"This! What is this!"

He subconsciously wanted to get rid of the shadow snake! But he discovered that besides being tightly entangled, the snake's tail was actually connected to his own shadow.

"What's going on? Is it a by-product of the system?"

Luye wasn't afraid of snakes, he was just suddenly frightened, and now he started to look at the shadow snake.

The whole body is exuding black mist, which looks very mysterious. Through the black mist, you can see its black and purple scales with a hint of metallic luster.

He reached out and touched the shadow snake's head, but it didn't resist and even lowered its head slightly, which made Lu Ye very interesting.

"No matter what, you are already connected with my shadow, and I'm afraid you will have to live together forever."

Shadow Snake spit out the Snake Letter, seemingly expressing his agreement. Luye also smiled when he saw this, and then started to check the function.

The ability of the shadow collector system is just like its name. As long as you kill a life, you can collect his shadow and convert it into shadow value.

When the shadow value reaches a certain amount, a breakthrough can be made to inject all the shadows into the host's body, allowing the host's strength and talent to be improved.

"Well, I like the simple and crude ability."

At this time, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier. Luye didn't want to catch a cold, so he was ready to go back to the house.

At this time, a somewhat urgent cry came from outside the hospital: "Brother, something happened."

Shikano looked up and saw that his younger brother Shikaku ran into the yard.

"What's wrong, making you so panicked?"

Shikaku ran up to Luye, intending to explain his purpose, but suddenly found that the birthmark on Luye's face had disappeared!

"Brother! How come the birthmark on your face disappeared?"

Hearing Lu Jiu's words, Lu An couldn't believe it. How could this birthmark disappear suddenly after it had troubled him for eighteen years.

But Shikaku would never lie, and this wasn't the right time to talk about it.

"Don't worry about it for now. What are you trying to say in such a hurry?"

Shikaku nodded, then swallowed: "Brother, Danzo is here and is talking to his father. His words are full of coercion, and he even mentioned you."

"You mentioned me?" This made Luye a little confused. He didn't have any reputation in Konoha Village. He could be said to be a real nobody. This shouldn't be the case.

But it wouldn't be a good thing for an old guy like Danzo to notice, so Kano had to go and see what they were talking about.

"Where are they?"

"Danzo came alone and was talking to his father and mother in the living room."

Lu Jiu looked at Lu Ye with some uncertainty: "Brother, you are not going to eavesdrop, are you?"

Lu Ye smiled and extended his thumb: "Correct answer, but there is no reward."

After saying that, Lu Ye ran away quickly before Lu Jiu could make any move.

Shikaku was left alone looking at his back and sighing.

Just when Luye walked outside the living room and found a suitable place to eavesdrop, Danzo's voice came from inside the room.

"Chief of the Nara clan, you'd better consider my proposal carefully. This is related to the future development of the Nara clan."

Danzo's deep voice echoed in the Nara clan's living room.

The veins on Nara Shikato's forehead popped out: "Danzo-sama, I think the children of our Nara clan are not so bad that we need to be sent to Genbu to learn."

He tried hard to make his voice calm, but he still couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and his tone was much higher than usual.

Danzo stood up and walked to the center of the living room. His tone was full of impatience: "There is no objection to saying this. What is decided by the root is what the Hokage decides. Does the Nara clan want to disobey the Hokage's order?"

"But at the root it is!"

Just as Nara Shikuan was about to say something, his wife on the side stopped him. He looked back at his wife and saw her shaking her head helplessly.

All the major families are well aware of everything the Roots do, but they cannot say it openly, because the Roots were created with the consent of the Hokage, so everything they do is implicitly authorized by the Hokage.

Danzo turned to look at Nara Shikato, his eyes like a sharp blade piercing Shikato's heart.

"The eldest son of the Nara clan leader I just mentioned seems to have trained for eighteen years before he can even become a genin. How about sending him to the root to learn?"

Hearing Danzo's plans for his son, Nara Shikato immediately became furious! He clenched his fist with his left hand and punched the table next to him!

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! Even though my son has poor talent, he will never leave it to you! I will give up on this idea!"

Danzo ignored Nara Shikato's anger and walked directly towards the door. Before opening the door, he turned around and said.

"Give me an answer within seven days, whether to send your eldest son or ten children with superior talents, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences."

Then he left the living room under Nara Shikato's angry gaze.
