Waking up to find yourself transmigrated into the Naruto world—what kind of feeling is that?
Others might not know, but at least Kyosuke feels it's an absolute headache.
It's one thing to transmigrate to the world of Naruto. Living peacefully in Konoha, fishing, and flirting with the beauties from the original story sounds like a pretty enjoyable life.
But what's with being thrown into the Warring States Period?
Holding his slightly aching head, Kyosuke staggered to a mirror. Looking at the overly delicate face reflected within, he couldn't help but force a bitter smile.
The Warring States Period—the darkest era of the ninja world.
Major clans slaughter each other for their own interests, and it's not uncommon to see five- or six-year-old children on the battlefield.
Take the boy in the mirror named "Uchiha Kyosuke," for example. At the age of only seven, he's already been sent on a mission to assassinate enemies behind their lines.
"This is outright inhumane," Kyosuke sighed softly.
Being born into Indra's bloodline means a life destined to be turbulent. Fortunately, Kyosuke has a resilient mentality and quickly adjusted to the situation.
Compared to grappling with his identity, there's something else that's occupying his thoughts.
In the mirror, his own eyes are glowing with an ominous scarlet light.
Sharingan!
'Awakening the Sharingan at seven? That's going to scare a lot of people.'
This isn't like the Konoha period, where Uchiha Itachi awakened his eyes at eight and Sasuke followed suit at seven, making it seem no big deal.
Back in the Warring States Period, it was rare for an Uchiha to awaken their bloodline limit before the age of 16 or 17.
In the original story, even Madara awakened his Sharingan at 15 and was already considered a once-in-a-lifetime genius.
Kyosuke understands that if news of this gets out, he'll immediately rise above the status of a disposable pawn and receive intensive training from the clan.
However, extraordinary talent often invites hostility.
Factions that are antagonistic toward the Uchiha won't just sit by and let him grow. Assassination attempts are inevitable.
Moreover, there's that sinister figure, Black Zetsu, lurking in the shadows. If it sets its sights on him, young Kyosuke will have no way to fend it off.
"I'll keep it hidden for now. Uchiha Tajima is not someone with a forgiving nature."
Tajima, the current head of the Uchiha clan, and the father of Madara and Izuna, is a shrewd, calculating figure—a true Machiavellian.
Everyone likes geniuses, but only to a certain extent.
If Uchiha Tajima perceives Kyosuke as a threat to his two sons, Kyosuke's fate will likely be grim.
"The awakening of my Sharingan is probably due to the merging of my soul," Kyosuke analyzed. "I can feel my mental strength growing stronger by the moment."
"In short, if I can endure, I'll have a chance to turn the tables in the future."
After putting on the light armor typical of the Warring States Period and securing his ninja tools at his waist, Kyosuke lifted the curtain and stepped out of his tent.
This location was in the southern region of the Land of Fire, home to the Nara, Akimichi, and Yamanaka clans.
These clans had always been close allies of the Senju. Given the critical state of the ongoing war, Tajima had stationed a large number of troops here to guard against potential attacks by these three clans.
Walking at a leisurely pace to the meeting point, Kyosuke maintained his persona as a reserved and taciturn individual. Outwardly relaxed, he was actually observing his surroundings carefully.
On a raised platform, a jonin from the southern forces was briefing everyone on their mission.
"According to intelligence, the three clans are secretly relocating members. The clan leader suspects they're planning to align themselves with the Senju clan."
"For the glory of the Uchiha, we must stop the enemy!"
"Oh!!!"
Following the crowd with a few perfunctory shouts, Kyosuke fell into contemplation.
His memories informed him that the jonin's name was Hikoichi, a trusted subordinate of Uchiha Tajima.
The southern forces were currently under the command of an elder named Uchiha Rei, a formidable individual with ambitions for the position of clan leader.
'Perhaps I can use this to my advantage,' Kyosuke thought, considering the mission ahead.
Don't be fooled by how righteous Hikoichi made it sound; the real mission was to slaughter the enemy's defenseless members.
Eliminating the women and children would cause a significant disruption in the enemy's generational continuity, a devastating blow for any clan.
Talk of relocation and alliances with the Senju was nothing more than propaganda to justify their actions.
Whatever might happen in the future, for now, the three clans remained among the most powerful in the Land of Fire.
Large populations and formidable warriors ensured that even the Uchiha couldn't take them lightly.
Only a fool would willingly join the Senju under such circumstances.
Uchiha may represent evil, but it's not like the Senju are saints either.
Still, Kyosuke underestimated the ignorance of some of his clansmen.
The twisted expressions and endless cursing from those around him reminded him that the Uchiha were indeed prone to fanatical behavior.
"Paranoia is truly terrifying," Kyosuke muttered, a sense of unease growing within him.
The Nara clan, known for their intelligence, wasn't likely to leave their descendants vulnerable.
At this moment, two words echoed in Kyosuke's mind: trap.
'What should I do? Step forward and advise against it?'
After a moment of thought, he rejected the idea. 'These are not things a seven-year-old should know.'
'If I speak out, it will only lead to interrogation and punishment.'
After much internal debate, Kyosuke could only come up with a less-than-ideal plan:
If things go south, he'll escape the clan's control, leave the Land of Fire, and seek refuge elsewhere.
'The Land of Earth isn't a bad option. Even in the later stages, it holds its own among the strong nations.'
'The Land of Water, though, is out of the question. It's even more chaotic than the Land of Fire.'
Just as Kyosuke was mulling over plans of defection, he realized that the situation wasn't unfolding as expected.
On the southern battlefield, faced with escalating Uchiha aggression, the Nara clan decided to secretly relocate their members.
To prevent spies from exposing their plans, the Nara set up several smoke screens to mislead the enemy and even create opportunities to counterattack.
If Uchiha Rei acted recklessly, the war might end sooner than anticipated.
However, the Nara clan never expected their carefully guarded plan to encounter an unexpected leak.
By the time the three clan leaders received word, the southern forces were already closing in on the transport team.
"Quick! Reinforce them at all costs!"
Roared the Akimichi clan leader, his voice echoing across their camp.
Meanwhile, Kyosuke found himself somewhat bewildered.
It wasn't because they had fallen for a trap; on the contrary, the mission was proceeding unusually smoothly.
It felt almost as if the enemy was deliberately delivering themselves to the Uchiha.
This unsettling development left Kyosuke with a creeping sense of dread, as if invisible hands were orchestrating everything behind the scenes.
Suppressing his unease, Kyosuke looked at the trembling women and children before him and fell into deep thought.
To kill or not to kill?
