'Huh!...that's convenient' I looked around to see I was in a hallway that connected 4 rooms to stairs on one side and a window far above my reach on the other side. I went to the stairs and realised I'm on the second floor which is the highest in the building. I walked back into my room and collected all my supplies and put them into my inventory which consisted of a necklace with my name written on it and too small to belong to me, 10 Ryo, 2 white Konoha symbol tee, 1 shorts and a pair of sandals. I looked closer at the bracelet and used observe on it

FIRST GIFT: This bracelet was given to Hibiki from his mother on the day he was born. This bracelet is a part of a set of gifts that Hibiki's mother had bought to be given to him on successive birthdays. Equip to gain +2luck.

Observe has levelled up

Observe: Lv2 (5%).This skill allows the user to see the target's max HP, max CP and some info about the target.

I stared at the bracelet for some time… this warm feeling bubbled inside me even though gamer's mind worked overtime to suppress my emotions. 'This…my mother gave this to me…'

Even though I never knew her but…I wanted to find all those gifts that she wanted to give me…

I looked through the quest already determined to see it through when gamer's mind finally activated and calmed me down…a sudden wave of relaxation hit me and my emotions dulled a little but the determination to see this quest through remained.

After giving it a minute to calm my nerves I searched through the things of other 4 kids and that lived with me and the other three rooms on my floor to find nothing interesting other than gaining 2 levels in my observe skill.

Observe: Lv4 (65%).This skill allows the user to see the target's max HP, max CP and some info about the target.

As nothing of interest remained on the floor I walked down the stairs to the ground floor. There was a door open a few meters in front of the landing which led to the dining area where many orphans from as little as 3 year old to as old as 8 year old who had an average level of 2 to 6 were having breakfast. I quietly slipped among them and after a quick observe on the egg and toast which actually gave 5% hp regeneration boost for the next 30 minutes. The breakfast was quite good it tasted okay and had a regeneration boost so I was fine with it.

After breakfast all the kids were taken out to the front yard and left at their own devices to play with for the day. Now that I am alone and I have no intentions of playing with kids i activated my sneak skill and quietly went out of the orphanage.

The village was a sight to behold... so many people were going about their business, as our orphanage was in the residential part of the village which is at the edge of village, people were hurrying to get to their day to day work. I sneaked into an alley, which under careful examination was empty, and leaned against the wall to formulate a plan on what to do.' maybe I should go along with the crowd and discover all the places that I could so that I can get easy exp and find a secluded area for future training ventures'.

Konoha was truly one of the most magnificent places I have ever seen … or at least I think from what I have seen because of the selective amnesia it is a little difficult to describe what I am truly feeling. There is pride to see the village that I call home, is truly a marvelous place to live in, the children are happy …at least those who are not in the orphanage are, and even then they are taken care of. Then there is the desire to protect such innocence that shines in those bright eyes, to protect the smile that appears on a fathers face when he sees that his family is doing well, to protect each and every one of them so that everyone can get to know the beautiful village of konohagakure as it shines in all its glory today. I can understand now what Lord First meant by the will of fire, I can understand Itachi's desire for peace and I vowed to myself 'this …I will do anything to preserve this'.

I don't know how I would have looked to people a child of age 4 seeing everything around him with such a critical view, bet it would have been weird for sure,anyway I got a lot of experience from that idea and I levelled up a couple of times… a couple levels in sneak skill and 3 levels in observe.

An Orphan living in Konoha, born a day before the Kyuubi attacked, Hibiki is the illegitimate son of the Yondaime hokage and akira uchiha, as both his parents died at the night of the kyuubi attack he was placed in the orphanage by the third hokage to hide him from some sources within konoha and to give him breathing room for the challenges ahead.

Sneaking: Lv-7 (5%): Allows you to sneak up on someone.

22% chance of not getting caught. Increases 2% every level.

22% chance of a critical strike. Increases 2% every level.

Observe: Lv7 (6%):This skill allows the user to see the target's max HP, max CP and some info about the target and what does he think and feel about you.

I know for a fact that normal four years old are not as overpowered as I am for sure…still as my basic plan went perfectly I practically found every location that is not restricted …I actually even came across clan grounds when I saw some uchiha's lurking around, after seeing them did I suddenly realize that I don't know what I look like so immediately I looked at the window of a shop nearby to get a look at myself.

I was actually glad that I did not have the distinctive feature of either the fourth hokage or from my mother's clan because as I won't have to go through the hate naruto would have to go through so anyone can easily see the resemblance I had, if I had, with the yellow flash and the uchiha clan are like a candle in darkness and I wouldn't even last going back to the orphanage before an uchiha sees the resemblance and take me back to their clan compound, precious kekkei genkai and what not.

My hairs were 2 shades darker than the Yondaime and my eyes were dark blue contrary to his light blue. I had high cheekbones, a little spiky hair and a broad jawline. I looked kind of cool I guess my face was pale so I guess I got something entirely from mother. I stood at about 3feet 6 inch wearing a white Konoha tee, blue shorts and sandals.

Another thing that occurred to me when I came across clan grounds is that my mother's side of family may still be alive…'I need to get more information'…I needed to enter the uchiha compound and according to my foreknowledge Itachi will have to slaughter every one after sauske enters the academy that means I have at least four more years to level up enough to sneak into my mother's home and gather information.

With new determination I started my way back to the orphanage. When I came closer to the orphanage I realised that the orphanage is at the edge of the village and thus I can sneak behind the walls and go to the forest that is behind the building, but I will have to check that out later as it is almost about time to get to lunch so I sneaked back to the front yard just in time to see kids moving in towards the dining room.

After a quick lunch I decided to look around the orphanage a little bit to see if I could find something interesting. In the backyard there is a tree which can easily be used to climb the back wall but I am a little too small at the moment to use it. So I doubled back and sneaked out like before and then went around the back of the orphanage to look for some place to train a little bit. As I was searching I came across a clearing that has quite a bit of plain space in the middle with trees surrounding it. Deciding that I cannot possibly find a better place for my day to day shenanigans I stretched my body a bit in response to my upcoming physical activity.

Decided to start with running I ran till I no longer could which according to the time by the gamer system was 23mins…push ups were next which I maxed out at 3 sets of 10-8-8…crunches followed in the same pattern of three sets…pull ups on a nearby tree branch gave a result of 10… and so went on many physical exercises…after 2 hours of work out a message popped up saying I had gained 1STR, 2DEX and 1VIT. Deciding on not to damage my muscles I leaned against a tree and started to meditate…my mind was not able to focus enough to gain the state of meditation so I forcefully clamped gamer's mind on to focus when a message popped up…

When I looked at my luck stat I realised that I never actually came around to wearing that bracelet so I quickly opened my inventory and wore that bracelet.

Now that I completed first part of my training I found some leaves lying around here and gathered them. I picked one of them up to my forehead and brought my chakra to the surface and circulated in on the surface of the leaf…the leaf stuck there for 3 seconds before I couldn't control the chakra and it blew the leaf away…after about half an hour of trying to get the leaf to be stuck to my forehead and when the time finally reached 10 seconds did the skill came up…

'Well now I have incentive to work harder' I smiled as I took 10 leaves and got back to work…after about 100 seconds I grew tired and the leaves collapsed to the floor. While I was panting because of the level of excursion I looked up to see the familiar glowing window…

I suspected that skill to show up but I never realised even with only 0.1% per sec I can hold 2 leaves stuck to my body indefinitely. I waited for a minute and when I saw my cp has become

102.4/1040 I took 4 leaves and stuck them on the underside of my forearm. Then I made my way across the boundary of the orphanage and made my way inside the orphanage and lean against a tree while many kids played around me… 'It's ironic really I am younger than many of them but I still see them as kids'…I closed my eyes and activated the meditate skill, I was shook awake two hours later by a matron and when I looked around everyone was going inside for dinner. I politely followed the old lady back into the orphanage all the while reading the popups that held my attention.

I quickly realised that I levelled that skill up pretty quickly, then I realised that it was an academy level skill so it was easy to learn and to learn than very little effort was required due to my developed chakra coils. But the increase in control bonus it gives is staggering …

So basically in one days' worth of work I managed to gain genin level control of my chakra. The thoughts of domination of the world were going through my head when I looked up at the height of the table and realised that I am 4 years old... suddenly all those dreams seemed pretty far away as I sat down on the table and ate my fish and rice while sulking about the unfairness of the situation. After dinner everyone was taken to their room and put to bed, under the stern look of the matron I just sighed and activated my meditation skill to pretend that I am asleep. At about 2 pm a popup disturbed me from my meditation…

I looked in awe as my control shot up to …

CONTROL- 40.4%

When I looked at the amount of control I had I realized tree walking and water walking is going to be very easy and I can get my hands on some jutsus, 'finally…from the moment I stepped into this world I wanted to learn all those jutsus' I salivated at the chance to learn all those precious jutsus that are weapons of mass destruction in this world…my thought process suddenly halted as I realized that I was starting to feel like orochimaru and let me tell you that is never a pleasant experience for your emotional side. After being thoroughly freaked out by my dark side I realized that it was the middle of night and I was not feeling even a little bit sleepy…I face palmed myself when I realized that due to gamers body I cannot actually be worn out enough to be in need of sleep except when I am injured. Realising that I could be training now instead of wasting my time I climbed out of bed and went up to the nearby wall and tentatively placed my right foot on the wall and commanded my chakra to circulate through the tenketsu on my foot on the surface of the wall so that I can cling to it…surprisingly it held firm on my first try and I placed my second foot on the wall and slowly started to climb up the wall until I was upside down the roof and standing comfortably…I frowned 'this was not supposed to happen I was supposed to have difficulty climbing the wall and'… my rant was interrupted by the popup of a blue box.

Ping!

SKILL CREATED

Tree / Wall walking: Lv-Max (99%): using your chakra you have the ability to stick to any surface if it is not chakra repelling.

Due to already having enough control on your chakra you can learn this skill without working for it but alas it will not give you bonus control because you already have that level of control required which you gained through an abuse of power. So suck it up!

'So the sarcastic system is finally back huh I was wondering when this would make a reappearance' I sigh then I suddenly had an idea as I activated m sneak skill and slipped towards the bath which was filled with water. Praying to who so ever God or Kami was listening to help me out as I placed my right foot on the water and repeated the process of chakra manipulation this time minding it to keep the flow steady as I stood up on both my legs on the water and sighed…

Ping!

SKILL CREATED

Water walking: Lv-Max (99%): using your chakra you have the ability to walk on water by hardening it with steady flow of chakra.

Due to already having enough control on your chakra you can learn this skill without working for it but alas it will not give you bonus control because you already have that level of control required. Hah! Moron got you again.

I cursed my luck as I realised I basically lost the chance to perfect my chakra control …'life would have been so much easier' a sudden light in my face distracted me from my depressing train of thoughts.

NOTIFICATION FROM THE GAME: Every 10 level you will gain a perk point with which you can gain perks according to the objectives you have completed.

I looked in shock as a new perspective was opened in front of me, a new way for me to gain power and protect the ones I need to protect.

"Perks"…I said out loud for the first time, my voice was squeaky and coarse for not talking to anyone for a whole day , then I realised that I needed to talk to someone otherwise this need to get stronger will subdue me and power will consume me, but for now I looked at the screen…

PERKS AVAILABLE AT THE MOMENT:

[1 perk point list]

Uchiha Interceptor Fist: Lv1 (0%) - The primary and basic taijutsu of the Uchiha clan, has several offshoot forms but each Uchiha has roots with this technique, makes maximum use of the Sharingan to predict and counter enemy attacks. Increases damage done by attacks by 5% (1% more each level)

Sharingan 1 tomoe: Lv1 (0%) - 250 CP/second when used by non-Uchiha, 50 CP/second when used by an Uchiha. +1DEX per level when active, can learn opponent's jutsu by watching them form their hand seals - cannot learn elemental kekkei genkai or hidden jutsus. Give supernatural awareness and slight predictive abilities of everything within normal eyesight.

Everything else was greyed out for the moment and as I had 5 perk points I selected both of them as I had enough chakra regeneration (68.4 cp per sec) to maintain the sharingan effectively, plus it's my family legacy and then it's the sharingan who doesn't want that? So I selected both of them and said "stats".
