Chapter 2: Ninja Academy year 1 (part-1)
tun tun tun~
"wake up or else u will miss breakfast"
i opened my eye's and saw a fat lady was shouting at children. as i went from top of bunker to ground some one called me.
"haru!!"
hearing this voice i moved my head toward the person and saw yamato my bunk mate. he was cubby kid with snot coming out of his nose.
"..so are u prepared for first day of ninja academy"
"wait a minute!! did academy start from today onward"
i pretend that i have completely forgot about academy, this was skill i learned from earth when u are prepared for exam pretend like u know nothing.
"hahaha classic haru!! dont worry i'm pretty sure u can qualify for class D.. probably, and maybe some 3rd class merchant will hire u as his assistant"
In the ninja academy, Class A was the main class, offering the most comprehensive ninja courses and providing special attention to students. About 89% of ninjas graduated from this class. Class B had fewer ninja courses compared to Class A, and only around 10% of ninjas graduated from there, with most students becoming civil servants. Class C offered almost no ninja courses, and most graduates went on to work in administration. Class D was considered the worst class, intended to provide the village's inhabitants with minimum knowledge.
As we walked toward the bathroom, Yamato continued bragging about how he was going to get selected for Class A and become a great ninja like the 4th Hokage. He boasted about his skills and talents, imagining himself leading important missions and receiving recognition from the village leaders. nodding along, I pretend to listen to his enthusiastic chatter.
I went towards the basin to wash my face. As I opened the tap and poured some water over my face, I caught a glimpse of my reflection in the mirror. I saw the face of a boy with silver hair, the front part wet, and yellow irises. His white skin tone and age group of around 6 or 7 looked back at me. Sighing, I couldn't help but feel that even after seeing this face for almost seven years, I still find it hard to get used to. It's been nearly seven years since that fateful day when I was reborn as Haru Tsukamoto. Remembering my previous life, I often wonder if it was all just a dream.
My father, a ninja, died in the Kyuubi attack, and my mother, a migrant from a distant place, abandoned me and left the village. At the age of two, I gained consciousness and tried to use my light-based power,but no progress was made. I believed there must be some criteria to fulfill before I can fully harness its potential. Thus, I shifted my focus to learning chakra control, but it proved to be quite challenging for me. After four years of trying, I was hardly able to stick leaf to my hand let alone walking on roof or water, I gave up on chakra control and attempted Saitama's exercise, which turned out to be impossible for a child's body.
Learning to use shuriken and kunai was even more difficult, considering the lack of pocket money for children in the orphanage. So, I resorted to reading numerous books to gain as much knowledge as possible.
As I was lost in my thoughts, Toshi, one of the older kids in the orphanage, interrupted me, urging me to hurry up to the mess hall before the food runs out. I quickly brushed my teeth, took a bath, and joined them for a meal.
"Haru, you're very late. All that's left is a little bit of rice and curd," the old man with a black mustache said as he served me the remaining food, looking sad for me. I could only sigh internally.
"haru-kun"
as i was walking toward corner bench suddenly i felt soft plum feeling on back of my head.i almost tripped.
"where are u going come with onee -chan"
she garbed my arm and dragged me toward her table in which 2 boys and 2 girls were sitting.
"haru-kun!!why u eating so less let onee chan feed you"
"no no Emi onee-chan it *gulp*.."
before i can deny her self proclaimed onee chan start shoving food in my mouth. seeing us boys sitting in table looked jealous.
"btw isn't today your first day of in ninja academy"
one of the girl haruka who wore glasses with unkept hair seeing the atmosphere try to change topic. I responded by nodding my head.
"haru-chan dont leave me!! wah... wa.. aaa..."
as she said that she pulled me over toward and hugged me. my head was buried in her bosom while she cried, i felt good and annoyed at same time. the boys who looked little jealous now had murderous look in there eyes.
"now that i think about it i heard that itachi little brother will also attend this year"
one of boy who had triangle like shape head remember one of the rumour he had heard.
"ef dat kid heve eben lidtle beit ouf hitachi talant hae ganna gratuate es west stutent.."
second boy saru who was sitting next first boy, gave his opinion on the matter, he had orange curly hair, with lot of bandage in his face.
"first eat then talk"
A blond haired girl aika who was sitting next emi, she was exact opposite of first girl, she had ton of makeup and well dressed, she hit orange haired boy with karate chop.
"Now that you mention it, I've heard even that... boy will attend this year,"
she whispered in a small voice, laced with contempt, hate, and fear. The mere thought of his presence seemed to fill her with a mix of negative emotions. all of them had grim expression in there face, especially emi.
"They are allowing that monster to get an education,"
Emi said angrily, her emotions still raw from the memory of her parents' death in the Nine-Tails attack
"haru u better stay away from a kid named naruto"
"huh...ok"
I replied, having no intentions of interacting with him. I didn't want to draw the attention of the upper echelon of Konoha, especially Donzo. After finishing my food, I bid them goodbye and headed to the academy with Yamato.
At the academy gate, Mizuki and some other teachers sorted the students in line, making us stand in front of the stage with a banner welcoming the 1st-year students. While the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, gave his speech about the will of fire, I found myself uninterested and began surveying the other students. I noticed Sakura with her pink hair and large forehead, listening attentively at the front of the line. Behind her was Ino with her blond hair, while Shikamaru stared at the clouds behind Hiruzen, and Choji secretly ate chips. In front of them, Naruto struggled to pay attention to the speech, and next to him, Sasuke was engrossed, his smile radiant unlike his future self.
"..so remember enjoyment is part of learning"
Hiruzen finished his speech. After that, the teachers took us to a classroom and gave us a question paper with 30 questions. I quickly completed it in 20 minutes, shocking the teachers. I had to wait for the next 20 minutes until the test was over. Then, we were taken to the field for a rigorous run, and though I managed to survive until 40 minutes, many students fell much earlier. Surprisingly, Naruto, Sasuke, and Kiba ran for the full hour.
Afterward, we were allowed to rest in a classroom. I was exhausted and fell asleep.
"haru Tsukamoto class A"
my slumber was broken someone called my name. i opened my eyes and saw iruka announcing result. turn out i ended up naruto and rest of konoha 11 class
"class A student come with me"
I stood up and went with my fellow classmates to the Class A classroom, leaving Yamato looking shocked and disbelieving. later i found out he got selected in Class C, and I couldn't help but mentally sneer at him.
"ok guys i will brief u about academy rules and stuff,.."
"you all are not allowed to carry any type of weapon, academy will provide u with kunai and shuriken, you all have 6 classes 3 of them are theory class other 3 are practical..."
briefing went on for hour. after it was completed, the kids ran to their parents or guardians, sharing their day, I couldn't help but feel a bit down. I noticed Naruto with a sad look on his face, and when he saw me, he seemed to feel a little better and was about to call out to me. However, I walked away before he had the chance to do so.
