In a world where war was constantly happening, where it was a matter of when and not if.
Even now, a war is happening inside the world, the people call it the third great shinobi world war.
Inside a small country called the land of hot water, a camp of ninjas stood.
They all carried headbands with a leaf symbol inscribed on them.
And inside this camp of ninjas, was a small tent where a child of only twelve years of age.
It was at this moment that the young kid woke up suddenly.
*Huff* *Huff*
Turning his head left and right, the young ninja looked at his surroundings in surprise.
'Where am I?' He thought as he tried to make sense of his current location however he came up with a blank.
At least until a few moments later when he felt the start of a major headache.
It started slowly but after a few seconds, the headache ramped up almost overwhelming him completely, causing the ninja to hold his head in pain and gather himself almost in a ball from the pain he was experiencing.
'Im Kazuo? A gennin of the hidden leaf village?' Kazuo questioned himself as if doubting what he was seeing as memories flashed through his mind.
'Im in the world of Naruto?' Kazuo thought as shivers ran down his spine.
'No, no way. This is some prank, it has to be some kind of elaborate prank' Kazuo thought as he quickly jumped from the bed, his headache practically forgotten at the piece of shocking news.
Heading to the entrance of the tent, Kazuo almost ripped the fabric apart as he went outside to look at his surroundings.
As soon as he was out of the tent, Kazuo stopped. His eyes grew wide, and shock and horror appeared in his expression.
All around him stood tens upon tens of similar green tents, but that wasn't what shocked Kazuo. It was the screams of people, the bloody smell in the air.
'It's true' Kazuo thought, his mind had turned into a mess as he looked around at the roaming ninjas.
Their expressions looked grim as they walked, their clothes adorned with patches of blood and their hands almost completely scarred.
Some had even lost their eyes while others had deep scars that went through the entirety of their face.
Quickly Kazuo turned around and headed back into his tent, his mind working on overdrive as he tried to adapt to the situation he had found himself in.
Sitting back on his bed once more, Kazuo started thinking.
'I'm inside the world of Naruto, My name is Kazuo, and im a Gennin from the Gennin Corps of the Hidden Leaf, i failed my Jonin sensei exam last month and only a month later was sent to the frontline against the hidden cloud. It is currently the era of the third world war and Hiruzen is still the Hokage.' Kazuo thought as he took everything in, analyzing the memories he had gained.
'I currently have low Gennin level chakra reserves and only know the three academy jutsu and even those are only at the basic level. How the fuck am I supposed to survive in this shithole? Where's my damned cheat' Kazuo thought as he pressed his temples in anger.
It was at this moment that the entrance of his tent was opened and a young man came inside, he was about twenty years of age with brown spike hair that went all the way to his shoulders.
"Kazuo, we've got a patrolling mission, get ready in ten minutes and come to the entrance of the camp." The man said before quickly turning around and heading off.
'That's Kenji Ono, a Chunnin and the leader of my three-man patrolling team whilst im here in the frontline' Kazuo thought before standing up and turning to look around his tent.
Having the memories of the past owner of this body was great as he quickly found all of his combat gear and outfitted himself.
Turning around, Kazuo found a mirror next to his belongings.
Taking it into his hands, he looked at his new face.
With black spiky hair that went down to his neck and completely black eyes, he looked like the typical Uchiha if he had to say so himself.
Though his features were more average when compared to the clan members.
'Atleast i'm not ugly' Kazuo thought to himself sarcasticlly before releasing a long winded sigh.
Putting the mirror back into his backpack, Kazuo turned around and headed out of the tent, and started going toward the entrance of the camp where his team would be waiting for him.
'Kenji Ono, the leader of the group, a Chunnin level ninja with below standard chakra reserves for his rank. Overall he is only a chunnin because it is war time and in peace times he would have still been a gennin at most.' Kazuo thought before starting to think about the last member of their group.
It was another kid who had failed his Jonin sensei exam and been sent to the corps, where he had first met Kazuo.
'Yaso Arakawa, similarly to Kenji the guy is a civilian-birthed ninja with low to almost no accomplishments in the ninja academy. With short black hair and brown eyes, he was the typical cannon fodder.' Kazuo thought as he walked through the camp.
After a minute or so, Kazuo arrived at the camp's entrance where he saw ninjas patrolling and on guard duty as well as others that kept coming in and out of the camp as they finished or started this mission just like Kazuo was about to start his own.
Looking around, he quickly found his teammates and headed to them.
"Hey!"
"Hey, you're right on time Kazuo, It's just a simple patrolling mission so there's not much to explain in mission details, let's just get started immediately so we can complete this quickly," Kenji said as he waved at Kazuo whilst Yaso stood silent merely giving Kazuo a nod.

Kazuo nodded at Kenji and the group started heading out of the ninja camp.
As they ran out of the camp, Kenji and Yaso started jumping onto the trees and hopping from one tree to the other.
This was an essential skill for all hidden leaf shinobi, it helped them immensely when they were in their own territory or when inside a forest when compared to ninjas from other great villages.
Kazuo looked at the backs of his two teammates before quickly jumping onto a tree branch.
Thankfully with the memories of this body, he could emulate and do whatever the past Kazuo had been able to.
As the group ran in a triangle formation with Kenji at the front, they started this patrolling route.
'The route that the group usually goes on is about four kilometers from the camp entrance and from there, we complete a full circle around the perimeter after which we are done for the day and return back to the camp' Kazuo thought as he followed behind his leader.
The first twenty or so minutes of the patrol went calmly as the group concentrated and kept their guard up against any signs of danger.
However, it seemed luck wasn't on Kazuo's side today as, at the twenty-first minute, something did happen.
Suddenly as they were hopping from tree to tree, Kenji stopped on a tree branch abruptly.
And in the tree branch where he had been about to jump to, tens of kunai had been embedded into merely a split second later.
"Enemy attack" Kenji quickly said as he raised his guard up even further.
Kazuo and Yaso stopped right behind him, each on a different tree branch as they started looking around for the attacker.
'It's an ambush, all three of us are civilian ninjas so we don't have any special methods of tracking, none of us are even sensors.' Kazuo quickly thought as he looked around the trees before he noticed something heading towards them.
"Explosive kunai!" Kazuo screamed before jumping away from the tree branch he was at currently.
Kenji quickly followed and jumped away from the location, however, Yaso was too slow in his reaction speed.
Kazuo saw the kunai with a paper tag attached to it fly directly to where Yaso was.
The paper tag had already started burning and when Yaso tried to escape and jump away, it was already too late.
*BOOM*
With a loud booming sound, the explosive tag exploded, destroying everything in a five-meter radius, Yaso included.
Kazuo saw it clearly, the face of his teammate as the explosion hit and ripped his body apart, as half of his body was erased from the explosion, blood splattering everywhere.
'Fuck' Kazuo thought before he quickly turned to where the kunai had been launched from.
"North, fifteen degrees toward the west." Kazuo quickly shouted out the direction from where he had seen the kunai being thrown from.
Kenji nodded his head and quickly started running toward the location.
Kazuo looked at the man for a moment before shaking his head.
'What the fuck are you doing? We're only two people and you're just going to go head in first?' Kazuo thought to himself as thoughts of retreating alone immediately filled his head however he shook his head merely a moment later.
'I could be considered a deserter and killed immediately after'
Jumping from the tree branch, Kazuo quickly followed Kenji for a few hundred meters before he saw Kenji fall down to the grass below.
Joining him on the ground, the two found themselves in a small clearing inside the forest.
Looking around, Kazuo found nothing besides silence however that was a clear indicator that something was wrong.
'I can't hear anything, this is a genjutsu' Kazuo thought almost immediately.
Putting his hands together, Kazui quickly disrupted his chakra system however nothing happened, and the silence still remained.
'Is my chakra control too low?' Kazuo thought next as he looked at Kenji looking around for any sign of the attackers.
Taking out a kunai from his backpack, Kazuo pierced his leg slightly.
At that moment, he started hearing sounds once more, and there right before Kenji was a ninja.
Kenji didn't even notice the enemy who was right in front of him.
However, even Kazuo had been too late in releasing the genjutsu.
*Sslich*
Pain erupted from Kazuo's back and at the same time, he saw the ninja sever Kenji's head, it falling down to the ground together with his body whilst blood erupted into the air, almost like a water fountain.
He himself, saw the ground closing in as he fell down, turning his eyesight to the back he saw another ninja.
It was a kid, someone who couldn't be older and was maybe even younger than Kazuo himself.
He had a scared look on his face as he held a kunai in his hands which were trembling as he looked at Kazuo who had fallen onto the ground.
At this moment, another person appeared and started patting the young kid's shoulder.
"You did good Aoki," The man said, he was large with a muscular frame and short blond hair.
A cloud village symbol adorned his headband.
'This fucker, im his first kill aren't I?' Kazuo thought however he could even talk out loud as blood filled his mouth and throat.
"However next time you have to remember to finish the job, Aoki, this is war and all of these wretches are nothing but that, pieces of shit who deserve to die," The man said before taking out a short sword from his back and getting closer to Kazuo.
Grabbing Kazuos hair, he held him up before giving him a bloody smile.
"Any last words, tree hugger?" The man said as he held Kazuo up with one hand, whilst holding the short sword in the other.
Kazuo looked at him as immense hatred radiated from his eyes.
He was mad at the man, angered at the young ninja, and before all of that, he was furious at the whole situation, at having been reincarnated into this shitty world.
Opening his mouth, blood leaked out as it dripped down all the way to Kazuos chin.
"Your mother will miss me," Kazuo said before his expression turned into a smile and he spat onto the man's face.
This seemed to anger the cloud ninja as he raised his short sword and cleanly severed Kazuos head.
