A man named Reiji from Earth, who is a shaman from Japan and comes from a famous family of shamans. Reiji is a talented and very powerful shaman. However, Reiji then disappears when facing the resurrected Yamata no Orochi, who attempts to kill people.
Instead of ending up in heaven or hell, Reiji finds himself in a room. In that room, there are various children with red hair. Seeing this, Reiji is confused and astonished.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" asks a girl next to Reiji.
"What? Who are you? No, who are all of you?" Reiji instead questions back, staring in wonder.
"What do you mean? Aren't we all Uzumaki?" the girl replies with a puzzled expression.
"... Oh damn," Reiji mutters quietly.

I don't know how to say this, but I think the readers below are being overly self-important.
First of all, the main character (MC) seems very smart and talented, fitting the standard shonen stereotype: determined, hardworking, and the claim that they are foolish is clearly wrong.
The MC is indeed determined and hardworking, but not foolish. If the MC were foolish, it would be impossible for them to learn Fuinjutsu, don't you remember? Only smart people can learn Fuinjutsu. Orochimaru was able to learn Fuinjutsu because he is clearly smart and insane, Minato could learn Fuinjutsu because he is clearly intelligent and a genius, while Kushina could learn Fuinjutsu because she is clearly smart and talented enough.
What the readers are saying below is clearly just them trying to act knowledgeable; it is really questionable whether that person has read this novel in its entirety.
Second, it is not certain that the MC will only win by using justice and friendship—what nonsense! It is clear that the MC will grow stronger. What is the point of relying on friendship and justice? The readers are really acting overly knowledgeable and smart; it is truly questionable whether the readers below have actually read this novel or not, as their reviews are filled with plot holes and show their ignorance.
Third, the author does not underestimate the Uzumaki clan, but it is clear that the Uzumaki did not develop. The reason the Uzumaki could survive the First Shinobi World War is clearly because Tobirama was still around! However, during the Second Shinobi World War, the Uzumaki were wiped out! It is evident that the Uzumaki relied too much on their friendship with Konoha and the Senju clan, and did not develop themselves to prepare for when Konoha would not help Uzushio and the Uzumaki clan.
This is clearly seen just before the Uzumaki clan was destroyed, when Kushina was taken away from Uzushio. Then, when Uzushio was attacked by other major villages, Konoha did not help or arrived too late to assist, leading to the extinction of the Uzumaki and leaving only a few survivors.
It is clear that the Uzumaki clan relied too much on Konoha and did not further develop Fuinjutsu.
The MC seems to underestimate the Uzumaki because Fuinjutsu is clearly very complicated and only smart and genius individuals can learn it, like Orochimaru, Minato, and Kushina. The MC's goal is to develop Fuinjutsu and the Uzushio village to make them stronger, and this is clearly evident.
When the clan leader realizes that the MC can help the Uzushio village develop further, of course, the clan leader will support the MC. After all, the clan leader acknowledges that the MC is very talented and a genius, and because Fuinjutsu is very complicated and difficult, the clan leader hopes that the MC can truly develop Fuinjutsu.
Fourth, it may seem as if the author is belittling the Uzumaki clan and making the MC seem extraordinary, but from the background of the Uzumaki clan alone, it is clear that they relied too much on cooperation with Konoha and the Senju clan. When the Senju clan perished, Tobirama died, and Hiruzen took office, Konoha did not come or arrived too late to help Uzushio. If only Uzushio and the Uzumaki clan had been willing to further develop Fuinjutsu or establish relationships with other villages, the extinction of the Uzumaki would not have happened. Therefore, the author felt the need to make the MC very extraordinary; otherwise, when the Uzumaki clan was attacked, wouldn't the MC only be able to rely on the foolish friendship and justice that the readers mentioned?
That is why the author made the MC very overpowered, while the existence of Yamata-no-Orochi only makes the MC stronger, so that when there are truly strong enemies like Jinchuriki or the Otsutsuki clan, the MC can be prepared. Isn't this very clear?
The readers below are just giving foolish reviews; don't believe them!

This fanfiction is dull with a 2.5/5 rating. It is about as satisfying as eating a sandwich from a vending machine. It is filling, and since you're already expecting disappointment, you're pleasantly surprised by the mediocrity. It's nothing worth revisiting, unless you've a great hunger and have no better alternatives.
The chapters are very short, averaging around 3, 700 characters, which equates to about 34 lines of text. However, the spelling and grammatical structure are solid, and they even uses some [brackets] for stylistic effect. Kudos to the translator for their exemplary work.
The protagonist is an unlikable variation of the standard shonen stereotype: determined, hardworking, and an airhead. Typically this bland depiction allows the reader to root for them and project onto them during the fight scenes, where they underdog their way to victory with gumption and a combination of the power of friendship and justice. They even have the stereotypical hardworking childhood girl-next-door trope to complement their absentmindedness, which could be your thing. But as I kept reading, it just made the protagonist more irritating.
What really drags the story down is how the author undermines the IP's canon and characters to make the protagonist look good, which undermines the story for me.
It is understandable that the protagonist, a 6-year-old boy possessed by the soul of a supremely gifted shaman, would have some carryover skills. But it is another thing entirely to trivialize the setting by making the Uzumaki Clan inept and fuinjutsu a frivolity for the protagonist.
Like so many stories with various OP tropes, the author focuses on something very cool in the setting and instead of treating it with respect and exploring it, they take the lazy approach of making everyone else incompetent in comparison to the protagonist.
"Lul, everyone else is a mouth-breather and sucks at this aside from the protagonist because they can break it down into easy steps that somehow no one else has ever thought of or tried before."
I am not kidding, it takes about 20 chapters for the protagonist to humble and dictate terms to the leader of the Uzumaki Clan over fūinjutsu. Where he literally states that the clan leader, of a village renowned for their knowledge and prowess in the extremely difficult and rare art of fūinjutsu, is foolish and understands nothing about fūinjutsu. The clan leader then naturally caves and starts blowing smoke up the protagonist's rump, because obviously the leader of an ancient clan of ninjas descended from a demigod would have no real spine or character. Especially not if said leader hadn't led their clan through the First Shinobi War, such a person obviously wouldn't have any real substance or qualities of a leader.
And this is before the ever-popular faux-jinchūriki reveal, which just makes the story progression and pacing even more bland by removing what little gravity the setting had left. Who cares if you have a super-ultra-star-void-dragon-mammoth-princess sealed inside you if everyone else is already a joke? Interesting protagonists require challenging antagonists and obstacles, and this story has neither.
