Chapter 1: Rebirth
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.
Author's Note: I know what some of you will say 'Oh no, he's going to split his focus between this and Gamer's Odyssey.' and you'd be correct, a fact about me is that I have ADHD and that makes it hard for me to write at a constant pace, so I thought 'Hey I can't write Odyssey, How about I write another fic? I can split my attention between the two fics and if I have problems with something, I can just bounce to the other.'
So… this is experimental, keep in mind that this is what my second fic? When my experience was writing around 24k words. This might be a bad idea, a really bad idea. But if there's something I know about bad ideas is that if all things go FUBAR, have a back up, so this is technically a back up, a plan B if you will, If I make mistakes in Odyssey I can rectify it here, If I make mistakes in here I can rectify it in Odyssey.
So yeah, that's it for now.

– Start –
Dying… is very strange if you put some thought into it.
In one moment you're just minding your business the next boom, you're bleeding out in the middle of the street, your body working overtime to keep blood pumping to stabilize the wound.
Part of me wants to just close my heavy lidded eyes and sleep to ignore the people screaming and the pain, sleep sounds really nice, right about now. But Death, the afterlife, the abyss, a great mystery that people tried to solve through religion, a great unknown. I don't want to die, not yet.
– Linebreak –
Beep. Beep. Beep.
Opening my eyes, nearly blinding myself at the white walls, staring around the room in confusion.
A hospital room, with the white walls, the sound and gentle breeze of the AC, and a heart monitor beeping at a steady rate.
I try to raise my head before a headache hits me, grunting in pain before laying my body on the bed, as I groan to myself at the pain.
It's memories… they're memories of one Karasu Uchiha.

Staring at the screen, I try to assess my situation. I died, got reincarnated in Naruto as Sasuke's twin no less and now I'm seeing screens… This is not what I had in mind.
FUCK! I'm in Naruto!
Taking deep breaths, I try to get comfortable in the bed before trying to remember what happened.
Closing my eyes I replay the previous night's memory.
Karasu and Sasuke, or should I say Me and Sasuke were returning from the academy then, the massacre.
We were horrified, we ran home then… Itachi found us and started to chase us.
Then Tsukuyomi.
Karasu must have died from brain damage and I took his place.
Heavily sighing, as I laid down in the bed, I ponder.
What else is different? Why am I so calm about this?

Gamer? I'll figure it out later, for now, sleep.
The door slightly opened, with a nurse peeking inside, when her eyes met mine, I saw them widen before quickly closing the door.
Goodbye sleep, I'm going to miss you.
A short while later, The Third Hokage entered the room, with his hands in his back.
"Karasu," he said, gently. "I believe you know who I am."
Name – Hiruzen Sarutobi

Tier – Champion
Faction – Konoha
HP – 20,000
SP – 25,000
CP – 50,000
Affection – 15
Thoughts about you – Pity (You just lost your entire family)
God damn he's strong, thank you Gamer's Mind without you I'd probably be more afraid.
"Of course, Lord Hokage." I said, nodding to him in respect.
He smiled gently, "May I?" he said, gesturing to the end of the bed.
I made an affirmative sound, as I avoided eye contact.
"I know you've been through some tough times," he said. "But right now, You and Sasuke are the only ones that can confirm what happened that night."
"What do you want me to do?" I asked.
"I just need you to confirm some things that's all for now." he said, with a gentle smile on his elderly face.
– Linebreak –
I told him what I knew that 'Itachi murdered everyone', 'He spared me and Sasuke', and etc.
He told me that I had to stay in an apartment, since the compound itself was being cleaned of the bodies.
After a few more hours ensuring the medics that I was fine, I was allowed to visit Sasuke.
Entering the room, my attention was immediately drawn to the bed.
Looking at him, so… pathetic, as of right now anyway. I know he'll get stronger, a lot stronger.
But right now, he's still a child.
The bond he has with Naruto, his actions during and leading up to the 4th Shinobi war, without him, No one could have convinced Orochimaru to reincarnate the 4 Hokages, not to mention a very important role.
The Sage of Six Paths.
He played an important part in sealing away Kaguya, he is the reincarnation of Indra.

Kill Sasuke, I thought with a frown.
Sitting on the chair, as I think on my choices, with the steady beeping of the heart monitor.

With a thought I close the screens, and look at my 'brother's' face with a frown. We're Identical, to the face, to the nose, even our hair is the same.
I don't like the hair though, Naruto was right about something. It looks like a duck's butt, with my bangs covering the sides of my face while my hair at the back spikes up, it really does look like it.
Maybe I can copy Madara's hairstyle, long and in a ponytail, maybe.
I have to think about training too, pulling up my stats and comparing them to the Third Hokage., the difference is Night and Day.
He's around 4 thousand times stronger than me, and he's past his prime too.
I have to plan out my training as well as checking out the ID: Create.
Let's see, weights? Maybe after I've gotten strong enough, I'll have to check it all out later.
Getting up, leaving the room being careful of the door. Asking the doctors revealed that Sasuke should be up in about a few hours.
As I left the hospital, I could hear the murmurs and whisperings of the Villagers. I hurry my pace to the apartment complex that I'll be living in.
It was big, and after finding the right apartment number, I entered.
It was spacious, nearly as big as my old apartment.
It had a balcony with glass replacing the wall, with a chair and a small table tucked into the corner. I see on the left side of the bed has another window, in front of it a sword case being held up by a cabinet with a bookcase in the middle. The walls were decorated with scrolls holding different kanji up as well as the giant Uchiha fan on the top of the bed. The walls were painted white with a single light held up in the middle of the room.
There were some boxes outside the door, which I presume held my stuff. Opening the boxes proved the assumption true.
The boxes held my clothes, some academy textbooks as well as some Kunai and Shuriken. Putting the academy textbooks, on the bookcase, with my weapons put on my ninja pouch which is on the table near the bed, and finally putting my clothes on the closet.
Looking outside, seeing it was already midmorning, I tried to think of some ideas for training.
Expand my skills, with more Fire Jutsu, find my other affinities, Chakra Control. With some exercise, the Library, and weights? maybe.
That's all for now, closing the book. Next thing to do is...

Closing the window blinds and sitting in my bed, just in case I fall.
I activate the Sharingan, Immediately I see the difference. My vision turns red, I see what looks like blue fire, that must be chakra, and my vision suddenly getting clearer, before I could barely read the title of the textbook from the bed but now I can read it in perfect clarity.
I turn it off before it can take anymore chakra.

I didn't even use it that much, as I was waiting for my CP to refill I wrote in the training section of the Notebook 'Increase Chakra Capacity'.
I strap my Ninja pouch containing my kunai and shurikens, I take a breath before activating the ID: Create, Bandits.
In an instant my vision changed from my apartment to a clearing in a forest, it reminded me of training ground seven.
In the center of the forest were a couple of people holding weapons, quickly hiding behind a nearby tree. I survey the clearing, around 20 people, 8 tents with a fire in the middle and what looks to be a caravan.
Observing most of the bandits showed they are between level 8-11 near my level, though all of them don't have Chakra.
Quest Gained!

Optional Objective:

Reward:
+ 530 EXP
+ 5,000 Ryo
+ Weapon
Bonus Reward:
+10 CHA Stat Crystal
Grinning, this is going to be fun. Jumpin to the clearing, my arms and fingers moving on it's own, Snake, Ram, Monkey, Boar, Horse, Tiger, I feel my chakra being kneaded before being sent out of my mouth as I mentally yell, 'Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!'. This is so cool.
In front of me a stream of fire as big as a House flies towards the middle of the camp, hitting at least a dozen people, as I released the Jutsu I immediately ran around the camp, getting distance.
Using the Fireball Jutsu again, this time aiming for the tents, as my hands begin to move through the hand seals, I spot some of the bandits charging me again.
Changing the aim of the fireball, I aimed instead for the bandits who were running. Burning a few of them, the smell of burnt flesh permeating through the air.
Objective:
– Kill all the bandits (14/28)
Halfway to go, I look around the clearing some bandits spreading out to not get hit, most of them are too far for me to use the Jutsu again.
Using the Sharingan, I pull out some Shurikens, as my vision turns red and my clarity of sight is boosted, I see some chakra at a single tent, quickly throwing the shuriken away and into the throat of two bandits who were getting too close for me, the shurikens imbedded in their jugular causing blood to spew out.
Quickly using my hands to use Fireball jutsu aiming for the tent.
Objective:
– Kill all the bandits (20/28)
The other 8 are trying to surround me, quickly tossing a kunai near one of the bandits causing them to run to the other way. I ran towards the opening, their anger at the other bandit for letting me through was enough of an opening for me to quickly toss a few shuriken at their exposed body parts.
Objective:
– Kill all the bandits (24/28)
The last 4 looked shocked, quickly forming hand seals again, I sent a fireball jutsu at the last four, destroying their bodies.

Closing the screen, making a note to add to the notebook 'Prioritize Taijutsu'. ID: Escape.
The clearing suddenly disappeared, in its place my apartment. With the setting sun on the curtains It's already been a couple of hours.
Wonder what food I could eat?
– Linebreak –
"Why won't you help me?!" Sasuke yelled.
"I will, I'm just saying we need to-" before I could finish I got Interrupted.
"If you won't help me then leave!" Sasuke said, slamming the door.
Sighing, heading outside, with hands in the pockets of my pants.
It's been a week, and he's… already obsessing over killing Itachi.
He only wants to train and train. I want to help him, to stop him from making the mistakes that he'll come to regret later in his life.
I chose this option, If I knew that he would be this irritating I would have chosen to do it instead.
It's best if I just let him be for now.
We're going to resume our class next week and I think I need to practice my Taijutsu, also running low on supplies.
Shaking my head, I start walking towards one of the Shinobi Stores, nearby.
Replenishing my Shuriken, Kunai supplies I head out to one of the training grounds near the Uchiha District, not wanting to deal with people asking about the Massacre.
– End –
Author's Note: I probably could have stretched this out more, but I just wanted to get this out there.
You might be wondering why the CP calculation is so long right? Well Chakra is somewhat complicated even in Canon, It was described to be
'When two more primal energies are moulded together. Physical energy (I.e STR, END, DEX) is collected from each of the body's cells and can be increased through training, stimulants, and exercise. Spiritual energy (I.e INT, WIS) is derived from the mind's consciousness and can be increased through studying, meditation, and experience.'
This excerpt was taken from Narutopedia, specifically Chakra page.
That's all for now, I'll probably focus more on this, since I'm having trouble with Odyssey at the moment, if you haven't read it yet… Don't.
That's alland please If you see any mistakes, please do leave a review thanks. Bye~
