Akira stared at the glowing message hovering in the dark of his room.
System Alert: Lucky Simulation Chance ×1 has arrived.
His pulse kicked. Without wasting a second, he ran to his room and shut the door behind him with a heavy click. He locked it. He double-checked the lock. Then triple-checked it — because if he was about to face an enhanced simulation, he wasn't letting his parents interrupt him for any reason.
He sat down on the mattress, exhaled, and whispered:
"System… begin Enhanced Lucky Simulation."
In his mind, he expected the soothing drift. The comforting weightlessness. The familiar transition into that cotton-white realm where he floated on cloud sofas like some overindulged spirit.
But nothing changed.
The plain room remained plain.
Akira blinked. "...System?"
Before he could question it, a panel slid open like a curtain of light.
System:
Detected first-time use of Enhanced Simulation.
Additional option unlocked —
『Travel to Another World and Simulate There』
Akira froze.
"…I can go to another world?"
The system responded in its usual tone — which somehow felt smug:
Of course. It is the All Heavens Simulation System.
Simulating all heavens is the baseline.
Akira rubbed his temples. "Yeah, obvious for you, not obvious for me."
Still, the shock faded quickly, replaced by a surge of excitement. A simulation in another world, and after the previous simulation ending with him dying to an Otsutsuki, this felt like a life raft dropped into stormy seas.
He couldn't help remembering the alternate life he'd lived — the one where he had a child who never saw him grow old. And another timeline where he couldn't even survive the Uchiha massacre.
This was a chance to expand beyond Naruto. To grow where Otsutsuki power scaling wouldn't trap him.
And the system wasn't done.
A soft hum filled the space, lifting him into the white cloud realm at last. This time, Akira didn't waste a second.
"I want a big large bed."
POOF.
A colossal, fluffy cloud-bed materialized. Akira jumped onto it and immediately bounced like a child on a trampoline. For a moment he just lay there, melting into comfort.
Then the next panel shimmered open.
A spinning wheel. Hundreds of worlds. No — thousands.
Shonen. Seinen. Fantasy. Magic.Hentai. Science fiction.
He skimmed a few:
One Piece
Jujutsu Kaisen
Classroom of the elite
Hunter × Hunter
Redo of healer
Solo Leveling
Even stranger worlds flashed by: full magic realms, cultivation universes, mythological planes.
Akira whistled. "There are really this many?
Hey, there was a strange world in between."
'But those type of world indeed have the most powerful abilities like time stop, hypnosis, time reversal and others. Each of them is stronger than the strongest ability of Naruto and he can use it even with the body of six years old and not be optimised into something weaker by the system so that he can adapt."
He straightened, excitement coiling in him.
"System… start the draw."
The wheel spun. Light streaked like a vortex. Akira waited for it to slow on its own — but it didn't.
A thick silence. Then another message:
Should I stop?
Akira blinked. "You don't even stop automatically? …Whatever. Stop."
The wheel slowed… slowed… slowed…
CLICK.
The pointer landed on:
『ONE PIECE』
Akira's reaction was mixed.
"Wow… and also… damn."
The good:
One Piece had a flexible power system — very compatible with ninja abilities. Haki, Devil Fruits, swordsmanship, physique, all tools for stacking strength.
The bad:
One Piece was also tragic.
If he spawned in a slave camp? A marine torture facility? Celestial Dragon territory?
He could imagine a thousand ways to die before breakfast.
The system interrupted his thoughts.
Since this is the host's first inter-world simulation,
a special mode is available.
The host's consciousness may directly enter the world.
Akira blinked. Today the system felt strangely talkative. Usually it behaved like a silent calculator — now it was giving special features like a festival booth uncle.
But maybe… it was simply revealing functions he unlocked through growth.
"You mean I can go to One Piece personally?"
Affirmative.
Akira felt his heart jump.
And then fall.
"But if I die?"
The host will instantly return.
No real death occurs.
However: only one type of reward will be given —
a special non-combat reward.
Akira stared. "Non-combat? Really? You're killing my hype here."
The system remained calm.
Combat rewards require standard simulation mode.
Direct travel cannot break world laws excessively.
Akira chewed this over.
"So if I want Haki, sword styles, Devil Fruit insights — I must choose a normal simulation, where I don't experience the life?"
Correct.
But the first mode has its own unique benefits.
I recommend the first option.
"That makes it suspicious."
Recommendation does not imply force.
The host may choose freely.
Akira leaned back into the cloud-bed, thinking.
Normal simulation = Stronger power gains
First mode = Personal experience + mysterious reward
His gut whispered something.
Choose the first.
And when Akira trusted his instincts, good things tended to happen.
"System… I'll take the first option."
The system chimed.
Conscious travel mode selected.
Prepare for world shift.
Akira raised one last concern.
"Wait. If I live… like, a hundred years there — how do I return mentally? Won't I be messed up? I have read many novels in which the villain takes over other person's body and his memory and repeats it over and over and finally he doesn't even know who he is and becomes messed up like that."
The system paused longer than usual.
The host may choose to block memories temporarily.
Long-lived experience in a foreign identity can destabilize the host's soul.
A normal human consciousness cannot carry multiple full lifetimes without distortion.
Akira frowned. "Then when will I unlock my memory?"
When your level of life is sufficient for you to hold these memories.
If it is said in your terms then it should be when you have Rinnegan
Akira sighed
"Alright. After the simulation, block my memories. I'll unlock them after awakening my Rinnegan. Anyway it's only a few years."
He sat forward, heart pounding.
"So… system… let's begin."
The cloud realm brightened around him.
『Simulation Begin — World: ONE PIECE』
And the world dissolved.
