Bab 1: Chapter 001: A New Start
Konoha, Year 38.
The Second Great Ninja War had just reached its end, the world had finally restored to a brief period of peace-time, and the Five Great Ninja Villages were silently recovering their wounds.
The Land of Fire, Konoha, is located in the center of the mainland. Although the streets were still busy and the villagers lived their lives peacefully, as long as you look carefully it isn't hard to find the faces of old ninjas and their cold faces. The situation remained very tense.
Morning breeze came with a touch of coolness. Senmei Asahi tilted his head to a side and walked silently on his way to the Ninja Academy, thinking about what the future might entail for him.
It's been almost 5 years since he came to the world of Naruto. As a war orphan adopted by Konoha, Asahi had been working hard to train his body, but since he had no guidance, he had never seen or understood what ninja training was actually like.
When he transmigrated, god didn't give him an invincible system or any OP abilities, so Asahi was right now just an ordinary little kid that could no longer afford to be ordinary.
He was fortunate to have been born in the relatively peaceful Konohagakure. As a war orphan, if he wanted to survive in Konoha, there were more ways than to just become a ninja.
He could earn enough commissions by himself to rent a shop and live on its income.
Looking at the enrollment papers laying in his small hands, Asahi pondered for a long time, and finally went in the direction of the Academy.
As a common villager, he might be able to live well in Konoha in the present. Moreover in the future, this world would have both Naruto and Sasuke to save it. As long as a villager could survive past the 2 disasters that would struck Konoha in the future, that is, the Chunin Exams and Pain's attack, they could live in this village without worry.
But since he finally transmigrated to this world of ninjas, if he didn't put his heart into becoming a ninja, he would inevitably develop many regrets in his newly young heart.
Although being ninja was a profession that comes along with a high death rate, he's inevitably overwhelmed by emotions every time he thought of those extremely strong ninjutsu that he saw in the anime.
In his previous life, Asahi led a peaceful life for more than 20 years, but the hot-blood within his body never died down, and occasionally there were some small fantasies that faintly appeared on his mind.
The atmosphere of the Ninja Academy was just like the village, very lively and full of emotion. A big banner on the gate had the sentence "Ninja Academy Opening Ceremony" and a group of 4-5 years old children were standing in front of the gate while chatter sounded continuously.
For these children, being a ninja meant being able to rise above from the rest and gain the worship of villagers. The danger that the shinobi life brought with it was still far away for them, or maybe simply no one had told them about this, after all, most of the children here were just war orphans.
He stood in the crowd, waiting quietly.
About this group of 4-5 years old children, Asahi had nothing to comment. In addition, the years of depression ever since he transmigrated to this world have also made him, who did not like to make small talk to begin with, become even more silent.
Before long, a ninja wearing a flak jacket representing his chunin status, came over and led the group of children away.
The academy enrolls school age children around the whole village. Whether they belong to a clan or were just from common upbringings, they could enter the academy to study. But, it's not necessary for everyone to come to the academy.
But in case they do want to enter, they must first pass the assessment of endurance.
The assessment was simple: 200 laps around the training grounds.
Chakra was a combination of spiritual energy and physical energy, and the fights between ninjas required a strong body and a high willpower alongside it.
200 laps was not a small number, but since this world was full of chakra, every child's physical fitness was already very good, and they only needed to spend a few years of basic training to pass it.
Asahi had also done some known basic training, and 200 laps was not difficult for him. Even for those among the younger generation of ninja clans, this level of running was just a warm-up for normal training.
The soft sunlight sprinkled on these children's faces through the sparse branches and leaves, and they could be seen running hard for their own goals.
As part of the leading group, Asahi's eyes were fixed on the boy who was currently occupying the leading spot.
He had white hair, with a black mask covering half of his face to compliment it, he had a pair of lazy looking black eyes, and a green scarf.
'I didn't expect to stumble upon Kakashi on my first visit to the academy, maybe we will be sharing terms.' Asahi secretly thought in his heart.
He didn't mind being in the limelight while he trained at the academy. He wanted to get a good Jonin as his team leader when he graduates, and for that he must show or at least pretend that he had a high talent. No one without talent would gather attention.
Any ninja village's control over ninjutsu was extremely strict. Apart from the regular, father and son relationship, most people still tought ninjutsu under the name of master and disciple. If he could get an excellent Jonin to teach him when he graduates, it could be very beneficial to his future development.
As for being too showy or exposing too much, whether it would result in being caught by Orochimaru or Shimura Danzo, Asahi doesn't really care, even from the bottom of his heart, he even had hope to be noticed by any of those two people.
Because once he joins them, it meant that he would get access to better ninjutsu, and maybe even get a chance to learn a forbidden jutsu.
Lifting his spirit, Asahi chased after Kakashi with renewed strength and will.
If he wanted to be placed on the spotlight, the best choice was to get the first place in this entrance examination, especially while beating Kakashi, who had been already recognized as a genius, and was also the son of Konoha's White Fang.
Realizing that someone was going to catch up with him, Kakashi turned back to look at Asahi and then raised his speed to open up a gap between them again.
Some kids belonging to ninja clans were also not willing to be left behind by a commoner, and so they also raised their speed to catch up with Asahi. For these clan kids, it was understandable to lose against Kakashi, but if they lost to a mere commoner, the blow to them would be huge.
At least their clan would pay less attention to them.
Transmigrated since a few years already, Asahi had been doing basic training based on some of his previous life experience. Although not necessarily better than the standard training of a ninja, his advantage was that he had an adult soul. Compared to these playful 4-5 year old children, he at least would not be as lazy.
Although these clans' younger generations had already started their chakra-training, the little chakra in their young bodies was just simply not worth mentioning, since it would soon be exhausted. Once they have none at all, it would be Asahi that would end up surpassing them.
Soon, the leading groups also began to distance themselves from each other. Kakashi always led everyone, Asahi also clenched his teeth to catch up, keeping himself five meters behind to finally occupy the second place.
He found that no matter how hard he tried, Kakashi always kept himself ahead, and every time he accelerated to catch up, Kakashi was also able to accelerate his speed and open up the distance again.
The two contested each other, and after 2 final laps, Asahi didn't manage to close out the distance between them.
Running 200 laps while giving his all exhausted all of his strength, and he was now supporting his knees with both hands and trying not to let himself fall on to the ground. Asahi turned his head to look at Kakashi who was just slightly panting. While gasping for breath, he said, "It seems you're not exhausted yet."
This had been the first time he had ever spoken to a child of the same age ever since he came to this world. Even if he had an adult soul, Asahi couldn't stop himself from complaining in his hearth about Kakashi's talent. If there were no subsequent changes that were about to affect Kakashi's life, maybe, perhaps his strength in the future would be far beyond the original work...
