First entry into the ninja world

Chapter One: Time Travel? Rebirth?

The Ninja World, the Land of Fire, Konoha Village.

As a powerful clan in Konoha, the Uchiha clan owns a large piece of their own clan land in Konoha.

At this moment, in an ordinary little building in the Uchiha clan's territory, a two-year-old child was sitting on the steps in the backyard with a worried expression, occasionally scratching his head.

Finally, the little boy, forced to accept reality, could only sigh in despair.

"So, I really have traveled through time?"

The little boy muttered to himself, a look of confusion in his eyes, and then said uncertainly.

"Or rather, rebirth? Never mind, there's no point in dwelling on that."

That's right! The little boy has a secret: he's not from this world, or rather, his soul comes from another world. It's a world called Blue Star, where the little boy's past life was that of a college student named Lin Qing.

There, Lin Qing was considered a moderately elite, attending one of the top ten universities in the country and holding a double degree in biology and medicine. During his university years, Lin Qing became addicted to reading novels, especially the fantastical and xianxia (fantasy/martial arts) novels where scenes of moving mountains and overturning seas filled him with envy. One night, he stayed up all night reading, becoming so engrossed that he lost himself in the story and never woke up again.

Lin Qing's soul came to this world and became a little boy named Uchiha Qing.

Perhaps it was a mystery from the womb? Uchiha Kiyoshi didn't bring his memories with him when he transmigrated. Originally, Uchiha Kiyoshi was perfectly fine as a child, without any abnormalities, until he started dreaming about fragments of Lin Qing from the age of one. Over the course of a year, Uchiha Kiyoshi went from occasionally dreaming about him to having additional memories from time to time.

However, Uchiha Kiyoshi did not make a sound. Perhaps it was a subconscious reaction, or perhaps he had seen similar things in his extra memories and knew that he should not make a sound at this time, otherwise he would definitely be noticed and dissected or something.

And so, Uchiha Kiyoshi slowly awakened his memories of his past life. Even his parents, with whom he spent every day, were unaware of the gradual change that was taking place in him. This was actually quite normal; aside from not telling his parents about his occasional extra memories, everything else about Uchiha Kiyoshi was normal—he was behaving exactly like a child. He had always viewed those memories as something he called a "movie."

Until a few days ago, the unexpected death of his parents during a mission deeply affected Uchiha Kiyoshi. For the past two days, he had been in a daze, and the memories of his past life, Lin Qing, which normally wouldn't fully awaken for at least three years, suddenly came back to him. Only then did Uchiha Kiyoshi realize that he had transmigrated, and what had happened before was his own process of awakening his memories.

Fortunately, due to the existence of prenatal mysteries, one's memories awaken in segments. Otherwise, it would be suspicious if a newborn baby were constantly startled. Awakening segment by segment and slowly recovering all memories is actually quite good, at least it's easier to accept.

In the past two days, Uchiha Kiyoshi has also figured out his situation.

Both of their parents in this life were ninjas of the Uchiha clan, serving in the same Chunin squad. The father had even awakened the two-tomoe Sharingan, while the mother only had a single-tomoe. A few days ago, during a mission, they encountered a rogue ninja from Kirigakure, and their entire squad was wiped out. It was the reinforcements who arrived later who discovered their bodies and, based on the scene, deduced what had happened.

The reason why Uchiha Kiyoshi knew about his parents' Sharingan at such a young age was because his parents had never pretended in front of him. On many occasions, they would "proudly" activate their Sharingan in front of him to educate him about the power of the Sharingan.

Strangely enough, since this major change and the awakening of all his memories, Uchiha Kiyoshi now feels his mind is very clear, and he can recall many things. Of course, through experimentation, Uchiha Kiyoshi discovered that he doesn't have a photographic memory, but he can remember many things after studying them carefully three or four times.

Uchiha Kiyoshi also guessed that he must have experienced a great change, which strengthened his soul. In addition, he had received memories of his past life, which enhanced his soul to some extent.

However, none of these are the most important.

What Uchiha Kiyoshi cares about most right now is the state of this world.

Having absorbed many of Lin Qing's memories from a young age, Uchiha Kiyoshi was exceptionally intelligent. At just two years old, he had already mastered the language of this world, enabling him to communicate normally with others, and walking was no longer a problem. Based on his limited understanding, if he wasn't mistaken, the world he inhabited was the world of the very popular anime "Naruto" from his previous life!

"Sigh! How did I end up being reborn into such a world?"

The ninja world, it's arguably the most brutal world at the start, and it's the Uchiha clan's world too.

Uchiha Kiyoshi gets a headache whenever he thinks about his identity.

The Uchiha clan was to be wiped out by that man, and Uchiha Kiyoshi was terrified that one day he would wake up to find that man standing in front of him, ready to attack him.

Uchiha Kiyoshi had been agonizing over his future for several days. This time, he finally made up his mind, his expression hardening as he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll do it! I have to become a ninja. In a world like this, without strength, you'll be slaughtered at will. And if I want to gain strength, becoming a ninja is the best choice."

After making up his mind, Uchiha Kiyoya began to plan his future.

"First of all, it's impossible to be a genius. No matter what era it is now, the relationship between the Uchiha and Konoha is not good. The nail that sticks out gets hammered down. As an orphan, if you are too outstanding, you will either be recruited by the Hokage's faction or ostracized by the village. Either way, it will be endless trouble."

Uchiha Kiyoshi first established his persona, but then immediately mocked himself, "Heh, I don't even know my own talent yet, and I'm already thinking about whether or not to be a genius."

However, Uchiha Kiyoshi quickly abandoned his self-deprecation.

"In my past life, I was a genius, so even if I came to this world of cultivation, I should be able to make a name for myself, right? Moreover, my soul is strong, which is an advantage."

And most importantly, I'm an Uchiha, you know. I have memories of my past life. As long as I'm not unlucky, awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan isn't too much to ask, right? Uh... not too much, it shouldn't be too much..."

Having regained his confidence, Uchiha Kiyoshi once again began planning his future.

......

After briefly outlining his future goals, Uchiha Kiyoya got up and went back inside.

"Planning is the most unreliable thing. Just set a general direction. Let's get ready and eat first. My parents just passed away recently, and I've got a lot on my plate. I'll think about my situation more carefully when I have some free time later."

I need to find out some information these days, I need to know where I am in this situation, right?

Based on memories from the previous year, the situation in Uchiha and Konoha isn't that dire yet, and there haven't been any rumors of a coup. There should still be plenty of time.

While cooking, Uchiha Kiyoshi muttered to himself.

Having been a top student in her past life, and with her parents often away from home in this life, Uchiha Kiyoshi has been cooking for herself ever since she could walk and understand things. So, Uchiha Kiyoshi's cooking skills are quite good. Sure enough, a fragrant meal was ready in no time.

Looking at the food in front of him, Uchiha Kiyoshi began to eat.

Although he had accepted everything and calmed down for the time being, Uchiha Kiyoshi still couldn't help but fantasize about the scene where he would become a master in his training and his every move would be earth-shattering.

"And the Sharingan, I wonder how I'll awaken it later. As expected, novels are all lies. The idea that one awakens their Sharingan at age six, or even gets three tomoe immediately after their parents die, is completely untrue."

My parents were able to open their eyes, so there shouldn't be any problem with my bloodline. But after receiving news of their deaths, and so much time has passed, there hasn't been a single sign of them opening their eyes.

Well, it seems that opening one's eyes doesn't necessarily require drastic emotional changes; other conditions are also necessary. Much of what I know from my past life can only be used as a reference.

It should be chakra, right? I don't even have chakra yet, so opening my Sharingan is just wishful thinking.

Although Uchiha Kiyoshi was eating, he would occasionally stop and mutter a few words to himself.

"Oh? Qing has already prepared the meal. You're such a good child. By the way, what were you muttering about when you came in?"

Just as Uchiha Seiichi finished muttering to himself, a gentle voice sounded from behind.

Uchiha Kiyoshi jumped up upon hearing this, but quickly recovered, "Ah, it's nothing, I was just commenting on the food. Ah, ha, ha."

While replying aloud, he secretly warned himself, "It seems I can't say everything out loud anymore. It's enough to keep many things to myself. Luckily, no one heard me this time. Otherwise, if a two-year-old child like me kept talking about opening my eyes and my past life, and someone heard me, I would be in big trouble."

Uchiha Kiyoshi turned around and looked towards the doorway.

There stood an old woman with a kind face and a hunched back, holding a basket in her hand.

This old woman was Uchiha Kiyoshi's neighbor. After his parents passed away, during the few days when Uchiha Kiyoshi was in a daze, she was the one who often came to take care of him.

Kiyoshi Uchiha was still very grateful to this neighbor. After his parents died, he relied entirely on the neighbor's care for those two days to get through it.

Supported by Uchiha Kiyoshi, the old woman entered the kitchen. Looking at the scene around her, she felt sympathy for the child who had lost his parents at the age of two.

"Qing, life and death are predestined. Don't be too sad. Your parents in heaven would probably want you to live happily."

Also, someone from the clan will come in a few days to arrange for you to go to the clan's orphanage. If you don't want to go, I'll talk to them and say I'll take care of you from now on.

Hearing the other person's words of concern, Uchiha Kiyoshi felt a surge of emotion, but after thinking about it, he still declined.

"Grandma, let's forget about it. I can take care of myself. Look, I can cook for myself."

Seeing this, the old woman did not insist any further, sighed, and placed the basket on the dining table.

"These are the meals I made for you. Although you've already prepared them yourself, I'll still leave them here for you. Don't worry, they're kept warm, so you can eat them tonight. If you're ever hungry in the future, you can come to my house, and Grandma will cook for you."

After saying that, he turned and walked out of the Uchiha Sei family.

Watching the old woman's retreating figure, Uchiha Kiyoshi felt a warm current flow through his heart.

"It seems that not all Uchiha are arrogant, rude, and eccentric; there are quite a few kind-hearted members among them."

Chapter Two: Changes Over Four Years

And so, Uchiha Kiyoshi refused to enter the orphanage and began living alone with the village's subsidies and the clan's help.

In the blink of an eye, four years have passed.

In these four years, apart from becoming "isolated," the Uchiha clan did not perform exceptionally well in front of outsiders; everything they did was quite conventional.

This is the persona that Uchiha Kiyoshi created for himself: someone who suffered the blow of his parents' death and became withdrawn, even having a slight "fear of death".

Well, Uchiha Kiyoshi hasn't had a chance to reveal his fear of death yet, but it won't be long. He'll be going to the Ninja Academy soon, and when he introduces himself, that persona will be established.

Although he wasn't an actor in his previous life and hadn't studied acting, Uchiha Kiyoshi wasn't afraid of messing up his performance, since to a certain extent, he was just being himself.

Of course, Uchiha Kiyoshi himself would never admit to this.

Over the past four years, Uchiha Kiyoshi has finally figured out where he is in time.

It is now the 28th year of Konoha, a time following the First Shinobi World War but before the Second Shinobi World War. This is good news for Uchiha Kiyoshi.

At least, I don't have to worry about my clan being wiped out. Moreover, given the current situation, I can at least graduate normally, and perhaps even hone my skills for a few more years before the war breaks out.

With such a perfect developmental window, Uchiha Kiyoshi naturally wouldn't let it pass.

After several revisions, Uchiha Kiyoshi also formulated a preliminary plan for himself.

Of course, Uchiha Kiyoshi didn't waste those four years. Although he didn't refine his chakra, he didn't slack off in his physical training.

That's right, Uchiha Kiyoshi didn't raise his chakra!

Actually, it's not Uchiha Kiyoshi's fault.

Although it's unclear why children in the ninja world develop physically so quickly, refining chakra isn't something that can be done as early as one might wish.

Generally, one can only start trying to increase chakra at the age of six without causing any damage to the body. After all, the age of six for admission to the Ninja Academy is not set arbitrarily.
