Naruto:AFK SYSTEM (COPY ABILITY )

Chapter 3: Chapter 3: The First Jutsu – Mastering the Clone Technique



---

A New Beginning

Ren sat cross-legged on the wooden floor of the orphanage, his eyes shut in deep concentration. His breathing was steady, slow. He was completely focused on the warmth deep inside him—the faint, pulsing energy that he had only recently begun to sense.

Chakra.

The very essence of every shinobi. The power that separated civilians from the warriors of this world. And now, for the first time, it was his to control.

"System, show my status."

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Status]

Name: Ren

Age: 10

Chakra Control: Basic

Copy System: Level 2 (Can copy Basic Taijutsu)

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

He clenched his fist. This was just the start.

The First Step: Chakra Flow

Having chakra wasn't enough. He needed to control it.

He remembered from his past life that in the Naruto world, chakra control exercises were crucial. Genin often started with simple techniques like Leaf Concentration Training before moving on to Tree Climbing and Water Walking.

But he was still a civilian. He had no teacher. No one to guide him.

He had to figure it out on his own.

Ren placed his hands together, forming the Ram seal—one of the most basic chakra focusing techniques.

He focused, trying to direct his chakra toward his fingertips.

At first, nothing happened.

He took a deep breath, calming himself. "Patience. Feel the flow."

Minutes passed.

Then—

A tingling sensation ran through his fingers.

His eyes snapped open. It was working.

He repeated the process over and over, refining his ability to direct chakra. It was slow, frustrating even, but the system was there to help.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[AFK Progress – Chakra Control]

+1 Control per hour of meditation

+0.5 Efficiency per successful concentration attempt

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Ren smirked. Even without a teacher, I can still get stronger.

Observing Konohamaru Again

The next day, Ren made his way back to the Hokage's office.

Just as he expected, Konohamaru was there, trying (and failing) to perform the Clone Jutsu (Bunshin no Jutsu) again.

"Alright, this is my chance."

Ren activated Copy System as he carefully observed.

Konohamaru's hands moved—Ram → Snake → Tiger—as he clumsily channeled his chakra.

A puff of smoke appeared, and a deformed, weak clone flopped onto the ground.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Copy System Activated]

Copying hand seals… Success!

Copying chakra flow… 50% success.

First attempt required for full mastery.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Ren's eyes widened.

This was it.

Now, he just had to try it himself.

The First Jutsu – Clone Technique

Later that night, Ren returned to his room and sat down, focusing his chakra.

He replayed Konohamaru's movements in his mind, analyzing the process.

"Ram → Snake → Tiger."

He weaved the seals slowly, carefully, making sure his chakra followed the correct flow.

A puff of smoke appeared.

When it cleared—nothing.

Ren frowned. "I failed?"

He tried again.

Ram → Snake → Tiger.

Smoke. No clone.

He exhaled sharply. This is harder than I thought.

But he didn't stop.

For hours, he kept trying, adjusting his chakra flow each time.

The system recognized his effort:

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[AFK Progress – Clone Jutsu]

Chakra Efficiency +2% per failure

Clone Jutsu Progress: 40% Mastery

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Sweat dripped down his forehead, but he refused to stop.

Then—on his twentieth attempt—

Puff!

A clone appeared.

It wasn't perfect. It was weak and transparent, but it was there.

Ren's heart raced. He had done it.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Clone Jutsu Mastery: 60%]

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

"Just a little more."

By the time the sun rose, he had reached 80% mastery.

Now, he could make two clones, both solid enough to at least resemble himself.

Keeping His Abilities Hidden

Ren knew that revealing his strength too soon was dangerous. If people noticed a civilian orphan mastering ninjutsu at this age, he might attract unwanted attention.

So, he made a plan.

1. Never use jutsu in public.

2. Pretend to struggle with chakra, just like other academy students.

3. Train in secret, away from prying eyes.

With this in mind, he continued practicing in isolated areas, using his system to refine his techniques.

Meeting Naruto and the Others

A few days later, Ren decided to visit the Academy grounds, even though he wasn't officially enrolled yet.

He sat under a tree, watching the students train.

He immediately recognized Naruto, standing at the back of the group, struggling with a simple exercise.

Nearby, Sasuke Uchiha was effortlessly performing his drills with precision. Hinata Hyuga was practicing her Gentle Fist movements, while Shikamaru Nara lazily observed the scene with a sigh. Ino Yamanaka was chatting with Sakura, occasionally glancing at Sasuke.

Ren watched them carefully. These were the future powerhouses of Konoha.

And soon, he would be among them.

He smirked to himself. "This world may be tough, but I'll survive."

With his Copy System, AFK growth, and increasing control over chakra, his path to becoming a true shinobi had finally begun.
