Uchiha & Eevee

— — — — — — — 

In the endless void of dimensions, a tiny white light floated aimlessly.

Suddenly, a chaotic space-time storm swept through, and a shadowy figure emerged from the turbulence, shattering the light into 36 fragments that scattered in all directions…

The Ninja World – On the outskirts of the Uchiha Clan's territory

Inside a modest courtyard, 10-year-old Uchiha Renzo had just returned from completing a D-rank mission—finding lost cats and dogs.

After grabbing a meal with his teammates, he made his way home.

Though exhausted, he still sat cross-legged on the floor, determined to stick to his daily chakra training routine.

But suddenly, his consciousness wavered. The next thing he knew, he found himself inside a strange tunnel.

"???"

"Where… am I?"

He reached out and touched the tunnel walls. One end was blocked, while the other emitted a faint light.

Naturally, Uchiha Renzo started walking toward the light, his mind racing with questions.

"Am I… traveling through worlds again?"

That's right—he wasn't originally from the Ninja (Naruto) world. He was a transmigrator.

It had already been ten years since he arrived.

And he didn't even get a cheat ability!

"So, did I just travel again? Or is my golden finger finally here?"

As if being an Uchiha wasn't already miserable enough, this was the year Konoha 44—right before the Third Ninja War.

Recently, he had heard about the sudden disappearance of the Third Kazekage from Sunagakure, and how Suna blamed Konoha, using it as an excuse to start a war and divert internal conflicts.

Of course, as a transmigrator, Renzo knew the truth behind it.

In this tense situation, the academy forced all 10-year-olds to take the graduation exam early. Those who passed became Genin immediately.

Today was only his third D-rank mission.

According to his Jonin instructor, their days of leisure were over.

During wartime, the village wouldn't waste resources on idle ninjas.

Forget about Naruto and his friends doing D-rank missions until they puked—that wasn't happening now.

Speaking of which, Renzo was actually in the same class as Kakashi!

But anyway, back to the present…

The tunnel wasn't long, and soon, he reached the end, stepping into a massive space spanning hundreds of square meters.

He looked around. There were 36 dark passageways surrounding the area, and in the center stood a long table with 36 seats.

"Tap. Tap. Tap."

Suddenly, Renzo heard a strange set of footsteps. A moment later, from one of the tunnels, a small animal resembling a puppy walked out.

"Ha?"

Renzo's face instantly filled with surprise. This shape looked way too familiar!

"Isn't that… an Eevee from Pokémon anime? What the hell is going on? And where the hell am I?"

His brain flooded with questions.

Meanwhile, the Eevee across from him wore a very human-like confused expression, clearly just as lost as he was.

Temporarily setting aside his confusion, Renzo, enchanted by the sheer cuteness of the creature, walked over, squatted down, and reached out to pat Eevee's head.

In his previous life, he had loved Pokémon, and Eevee was one of his favorites.

No particular reason—just because it was cute!

But before he could touch it, the Eevee suddenly dodged back and snapped, "Can you not touch me? Who said you could pet my head?!"

Its voice was fierce.

Renzo froze.

"Eh? You can talk?! Eevee can talk?!"

Immediately, he thought of Team Rocket's Meowth and couldn't help but speculate, "Wait… are you one of those special Pokémon that learned human speech like Meowth?"

Eevee Renzo: "Hah…😤" 

The Eevee turned its head away, clearly refusing to entertain this conversation.

The next second, Renzo smirked and, taking advantage of the moment, quickly reached out, grabbed Eevee, and rubbed its head roughly.

Fluffy.

One word: Amazing! 

"Buiiiii!!!"

As Eevee let out a sharp cry, both of them suddenly froze. The scream stopped abruptly.

At that moment, they both felt a flood of new memories entering their minds.

And the memories… came from each other.

Then, completely dumbfounded, they stared at each other.

"Wait, so that's how it is?"

"You're also Renzo?!"

Eevee guessed, "So, did we both get sent to two different worlds at the same time?"

"No."

Renzo glanced at the dark tunnels surrounding them, quickly counted them, and said, "It should be thirty-six of us! We each came out of a different tunnel, so that means the other tunnels must lead to other versions of us!"

"Now that you mention it… that makes sense," Eevee murmured as it processed Renzo's memories.

"Hey! Quit petting me!"

Realizing that Renzo was still rubbing its head like a cat, Eevee snapped. Furious, it chomped down on Renzo's hand.

"OW!"

Renzo yelped and instinctively let go. Eevee quickly took the chance to escape his grasp, jumping onto the central table and sitting smugly, looking down at him as he nursed his hand.

"Well, aren't you lucky?" Eevee sneered. "You actually got reincarnated into the Naruto world as an Uchiha! And it just so happens to be the start of the Third Great War! Damn… I think you're doomed😏."

"Have you thought about how you'll deal with tragic orphan boy Uchiha Itachi and suicidal idiot Shisui?"

"Or how you'll survive the war, not to mention threats from Danzo and even the Third Hokage?"

The ninja world was no joke.

Especially during wartime. And Renzo was born into the Uchiha Clan.

Hah… the future looked bleak.

Even worse, Eevee Renzo had just reviewed Uchiha Renzo's memories and realized that his talent was average at best—not the worst, but far from exceptional. Right now, he was just an elite Genin.

And that was after ten years of relentless training.

Most of his time had been spent on self-improvement.

Clearly, this version of himself was desperately trying to survive.

"…Well," Uchiha Renzo shrugged. "It's not like I had a say in which world I ended up in. Just like you probably never expected to be reincarnated as an Eevee, huh?"

Then he smirked. "Pfft… "

"I mean, how are you gonna find a girlfriend now? You gonna date another Eevee or something?"

Renzo crossed his arms, looking at Eevee Renzo with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"If life is a competition of misery, then as long as you're worse off than me, I'm fine. 😏"
