In this world, Kings were the most extraordinary group of people.

  They derived their strength from the ''Myriad Realms Dimensions'', founding nations and ensuring their ''King's Way'' succeeded, thereby strengthening both their realms and themselves.

  However, this process was fraught with immense dahe previous owner of Qin Yi's body, an impulsive fool who charged in without uanding anything, was the most typical cautionary tale.

  tless Kings who blindly traversed dimensioragids. Occasionally, a lucky few would select easier worlds, succeed in their ''King's Way'', and witness explosive growth in both their nation's and personal power, allowing them to thrive.

  But most Kings perished at this very first step!

  The greatest challenge in founding a nation across dimensions y in the ck of information. Imagiepping into an unknown world, pletely blind to its ws— what outes could one expe such a situation?

  And to pound the difficulty, Kings weren't merely surviving; they had to establish a nation, a task of moal plexity.

  For Qin Yi, however, the difficulty was signifitly reduced.

  He could choose dimensions he was already familiar with, leveraging knowledge from his past life oh to avoid pitfalls and even reap greater rewards.

  pared to other Kings, Qin Yi was undoubtedly cheating.

  "But founding a nation in 'Naruto'..."

  As he pted, Qin Yi's expression grew somber.

  He mulled over the task, realizing that even with his familiarity with the characters and plot, establishing a nation in such a world was no simple matter.

  The civilization in his current kingdom was roughly equivalent to Earth's a past— perhaps it was even worse than that. They cked any knowledge of firearms or advaeology and were firmly stu the cold ons era.

  "This is practically a civilization without any foundation!" Qin Yi sighed, shaking his head.

  Uhe inal 17-year-old owner of this body, Qin Yi sidered matters more thhly. He uood that blind ce would solve nothing. quering a world like 'Naruto' with nothing but swords and spears seemed almost ughable.

  Was he supposed to rely on cold steel to fight against 'Kekkei Genkai' (Bloodline Limits) aating ninjutsu capable of leveling mountains and splitting seas?

  "Where's the intel? We heard the survivors brought baformation!"

  Suddenly, a otion broke out nearby.

  Qin Yi looked up to see a group hly dressed, anxious individuals hurrying toward him.

  A fsh of uanding crossed his mind— these dozen or so people were the ey of his kingdom's ministers. Yes, the nation had been reduced to such a sorry state that even its ministerial ranks were barely parable to the ma team of a small pany oh.

  "Your Majesty?!"

  When the ministers reached him and saw Qin Yi, they froze in shock before bursting into joy.

  "It's wonderful that you're alright! The royal physi mentiowo days ago that you might recover soon, but we couldn't be sure."

  "This is such good news! As long as you're awake, there's still hope!"

  Seeing Qin Yi, the ministers momentarily fot all about the intelligeheir gazes, filled with excitement, fixated entirely on him.

  Qin Yi couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile. He uood all too well what these ministers wanted. After his father, the former King, passed away, these ministers— essentially useless loafers— had beeo him.

  Expeg structive advice from them was a joke. It was these fools who had pushed his predecessor into the 'Naruto' world unprepared.

  There was no doubt that now, seeing him awake, they would soon begin urging him to venture bato the ''Otherworld'' again.

  ''As Expected.''

  "Your Majesty, now that you've regained sciousness, after a bit more preparation, you must ehe Otherworld again. Only then our kingdom stop shrinking."

  "Yes, exactly! If this tinues, our territory will dwindle so much that we'll lose even the space to survive!"

  "We should rally our warriors and give it ary. If we succeed, the kingdom will evolve and grow stronger."

  Hearing these anxious urgings, Qin Yi responded with nothing but a cold smile.

  "I already have my pns," He said.

  With that, he flicked his sleeve and turo leave.

  The ministers stood there, stunned and at a loss for words. There was a faint sense among them that this awakened King seemed very different from the ohey knew before.

  As Qin Yi walked away, his heart was heavy with frustration.

  'Good-for-nothings lead to ruin.' These so-called ministers— every single one of them— were utterly useless. The former host of his body didn't realize this, but Qin Yi saw it all too clearly.

  Their reckless advice had pushed the previous Qin Yi to charge blindly into the Naruto World, resulting in his death. Worse, his younger sister and most of the kingdom's warriors were noed iherworld, embroiled in uing flict with no way to return.

  "The ministers are unreliable, aering the Naruto World is urgent."

  Qin Yi's face turned grim.

  He khere was no time to waste. But if he rushed into that world recklessly, how would his fate differ from the previous Qin Yi's?

  "Who else I rely on?"

  A nation ot be founded by one person alone. Moreover, Qin Yi had only just arrived in this world and had little uanding of the full extent of a King's abilities. Without guidance, he was no different from a mb to the sughter.

  Desperately searg his memory, Qin Yi's eyes suddenly lit up.

  "There is someone!"

  "And surprisingly, it's him!"

  "So, my so-called father wasirely irresponsible when he left me with this mess!"

  A smile curved at the ers of his lips, and Qin Yi felt a weight lift from his chest.

  In his mind, he recalled that before his father left, he had deliberately entrusted someoo him, urging the young King to make good use of that person. Unfortunately, the 17-year-old Qin Yi ampered and na?ve and he never uood that individual's worth. For years, the man was left idle, his potential utterly ignored.

  But Qin Yi would not repeat that mistake. That man was someone renowned in his past life, an exceptionally capable individual. Especially when it came to expl the unknown, this was his forte.

  Walking dowreets, Qin Yi's expression grew heavier.

  The Royal City was in shambles. There was no business, no work, and no bor. Everywhere, starving citizens wandered aimlessly, their eyes hollow and lifeless, awaitih with despair in their hearts.

  Only when Qin Yi passed by did faint glimmers of light appear in their eyes. With great effort, they k before him, their respects.

  At that moment, Qin Yi felt their reverend desperate hope.

  His body trembled, his skiing in goosebumps. As his gaze met theirs, he finally uood the meaning of the phrase, 'To wear the , one must bear its weight.'

  The pressure of their impendihs and their fragile hope for survival bore down on him like a mountain.

  "Perhaps the spoiled youth I once was also saw these same eyes, and that's why he recklessly plunged into the Otherworld," Qin Yi mused.

  pared to the lives of tens of thousands, what was the worth of a single life?

  To protect these suffering people, to give them a better life— this was a King's duty and responsibility!

  With determination burning brighter in his eyes, Qin Yi quied his pabsp;

  He had to find that man.

  This dire situation could only be overe with his help!
