Chapter 2: Naturally Evil Marine Brat

"Sigh, never thought I’d be reincarnated into multiple worlds at once!"

In the Naruto world, Rojie sighed softly.

Ever since he recognized the face of the Pirate World’s Rojie, he had already suspected it—subtly sensing his golden finger.

The versions of himself across different worlds could share memories and stack power.

This kind of golden finger wasn’t unfamiliar to him.

"Kowa~ kowa~ (Shinobi World, classic trope.)"

The Charmander stood on its seat, arms crossed, head slightly raised, eyes filled with mockery.

The Naruto Rojie turned his head toward the Charmander and said, "Don’t think just because Itachi don’t speak human language, I can’t understand Itachi."

After merging the memories, he could now interpret the meaning behind the Charmander’s cries.

As he explored the memories further, Naruto Rojie gradually clarified everyone’s experiences.

This little Charmander—or rather, the Pokémon World’s Rojie.

After being reincarnated into the Pokémon world, he gave up being human.

He directly transformed into a wild Charmander.

Currently, Pokémon Rojie is diligently leveling up in the wild, enhancing his strength.

Determined to become the Sword God of Shilip Slope.

Ambitious.

Meanwhile, the Pirate Rojie, after being reincarnated into the One Piece world, passed the Marine recruitment and is now a low-ranking Marine.

Doing grunt work and dirty jobs.

Though the Marines aren’t a great place.

But at least they have a relatively structured training system to steadily improve strength.

Far better than being a pirate, gambling your life on the edge of a blade.

Now, the three Rojies from different worlds are all still at the starting stage.

What a pity—no big leg to cling to.

At that moment, Pirate Rojie, while quickly scanning Naruto Rojie’s memories, frowned slightly, waved his hand, and said with disdain, "Tch, so mediocre."

"No kekkei genkai at all. Thought I’d find a big leg to cling to."

Naruto Rojie snorted: "Itachi, a naturally evil Marine brat, don’t be so ungrateful."

"Why can’t Itachi be the big leg?"

"Think hard—have Itachi ever trained hard? Reflect: has your strength improved at all these years?"

After harshly correcting the mistaken mindset of wanting something for nothing,

Naruto Rojie began studying the golden finger.

As he suspected, when all Rojies shared power, they were bound by the rules of their respective worlds.

Pirate Rojie had conducted experiments: the Charmander’s power shared with him was nearly unusable.

According to their deduction, Pirate Rojie must consume a fire-type Devil Fruit.

Such as the Mera Mera no Mi, the Magma Magma no Mi, or the Heat Heat no Mi, to break this restriction.

However, regarding base attributes like physical body and spiritual will, the shared transformation was highly effective and usually required no prerequisites.

Realizing this, Naruto Rojie’s face lit up with joy, his grin growing increasingly arrogant.

He laughed like a child playing with vectors.

"Kowa~ kowa~ (What’s going on?)"

Pokémon Rojie stared at him, eyes full of confusion.

"Unlike Pirate Rojie, in the Naruto world, I don’t need to eat a Devil Fruit—I can use Fire Release ninjutsu to unleash the Charmander’s power."

Naruto Rojie explained.

Pirate Rojie nodded in agreement: "Indeed."

"But what’s your chakra nature?" Pirate Rojie suddenly asked.

Naruto Rojie paused, then answered: "Previously, I only had Wind chakra. Now, I should have Fire chakra as well."

"Kowa~ kowa~ (Wind and Fire? Can fuse into Shōton.)"

Pokémon Rojie cried out.

Naruto Rojie shook his head: "It’s not that simple. Hashirama mastered all five natures and could perform composite jutsu—yet he never fused a kekkei genkai."

Pirate Rojie chuckled: "Classic case of being too early."

Naruto Rojie cleared his throat: "We’ll only know for sure after returning and testing it ourselves."

"But with the combined spiritual and physical strength of three of us, my chakra reserves should increase significantly."

Saying this, Naruto Rojie looked at the Charmander.

Indeed, three “people.”

…

Ninja Academy.

Rojie slowly woke, blinking sleepily, gazing out the window.

The orange-red sunset light, soft as gauze, streamed through the window, spilling across the classroom floor, casting long shadows.

Only then did he realize he’d slept straight through until afternoon.

Class was about to end.

When did the Crimson King arrive?

Another day wasted.

The overachiever wept.

Soon, Iruka put down his lesson plan.

"That’s all for today’s lesson, class dismissed."

The classroom erupted with the sound of chairs scraping and students gathering their books, preparing to go home.

Rojie stood up, tidying his belongings, planning to return home and test his enhanced strength.

At that moment, Iruka walked up to Rojie, lesson plan in hand.

He frowned slightly, yet his gaze was filled with concern.

"Rojie, Itachi slept through class this afternoon—are Itachi too tired lately?"

"The graduation exam is coming soon, but Itachi must take care of your health."

"Don’t ruin your body and mess up your exam—that’d be a shame."

Rojie nodded quickly: "Master Iruka, I’ll be careful, don’t worry."

Iruka nodded in satisfaction, about to say more, when he suddenly spotted Naruto playing around at the other end of the classroom.

His expression changed instantly—he shouted: "Naruto, put down that chair!"

Then rushed toward Naruto.

Rojie watched Iruka’s retreating back.

Oh, young Huang Yuan.

Though he and Naruto Uzumaki were in the same class,

Rojie had almost no contact with Naruto Uzumaki.

Before gaining the golden finger, he was just an ordinary Leaf Village resident—not even a second-generation ninja.

Randomly associating with a jinchuriki would be unwise.

He didn’t want the Leaf high command to notice him.

…

Back home,

Rojie began sensing his changes.

Since waking up, he had clearly felt his body and spirit strengthened significantly.

His chakra reserves had also risen noticeably.

Rojie roughly estimated: his current chakra level was about half a ca.

One ca was the standard chakra unit, defined as the total chakra of an adult Kakashi Hatake.

Though Kakashi often ran out of chakra mid-battle.

Judged as from reading too many pornographic books.

But in reality, Kakashi’s chakra was quite impressive among jonin.

It’s just that he had the Sharingan—a massive chakra drain—and his opponents weren’t jinchuriki or Otsutsuki monsters.

Compared to them, Kakashi seemed weak.

For a ninja like Rojie, born a commoner, half a ca was already beyond reach.

Without the golden finger, relying solely on years of grueling self-training,

Rojie would struggle to reach even one ca by the peak of his physical potential.

Limited by chakra reserves, his ninja path might be utterly ordinary.

Likely stuck as a perennial chuunin.

If lucky, he might become a special jonin focused on theoretical teaching and the Will of Fire.

Like Ebisu, the tutor to Hashirama’s grandson.

No, he should be even more handsome.

He could be a kept man, a son-in-law raised in the wife’s household.

But now things are different—he has a golden finger, and his future holds far greater possibilities.

Eating soft rice isn’t bad, but the Dao of ninja offers him even broader horizons.
