My sword broke.
Seems like the sparring training was too much for this cheap tourist sword.
So now I have to ask my mum for a new one.
Problem is, she is currently on a mission and will only return in a week or so.
"Hey Dad, my sword broke. Can you buy me a new one?"
"That's... when it comes to the finances, your mother doesn't let me handle it...sorry."
...
He really is useless.
Anyway, what should I do know?
Oh right, maybe Tenten has a sword I could borrow?
Since the park is between my and her house maybe I should look there first?
Normally in Konoha, the training fields are occupied by Genin-teams, so for non-shinobi families, if they want to practice before the academy, they need to go into the woods or something.
However, there is a park which can be used for training too, since the park is pretty big so you don't disturb anyone if you train there.
But recently the normal children stopped hanging out there because there were rumors that a demon in the form of a little girl rampaged there.
So when Eiji got near to the park some children warned him: "Hey, you shouldn't go to the park, there is a demon who will eat the soul of anyone unlucky enough to cross paths with it..."
"A demon? What the hell are you guys talking about. Anyway, I have some business there so don't bother me..."
"What the...we just wanted to help you but you are so rude...we don't care if you get eaten!"
Eiji shrugged his shoulders and went on.
When Eiji got near their former training spot, he could see a girl from afar.
"Hey, Tenten. Long time no see. How are you doing? By the way, if you have a sword can you lent it to me?"
When the girl heard the voice and how he shamelessly jumped straight into asking to borrow something while not even finishing greeting, she slowly turned around.
For Eiji, at this moment, it looked like the girl breathed fiery steam out of her mouth and her eyes glowed red.
Holy shit there is really a demon HERE... let's try to slowly turn...
"AFTER NOT SAYING ANYTHING FOR TWO AND A HALF MONTHS YOU THINK YOU CAN JUST COME HERE AND ASK ME TO LEND SOMETHING??? SHOULDN'T YOU BE HERE TO APOLOGIZE???"
"Oh yeah right I kinda forgot to tell you that I would be training somewhere else...anyway I'm currently busy so I have to go now-"
Suddenly a kunai flew which missed his face only for a few millimeters.
"Uhmm I think it's pretty dangerous to throw those things near people..."
When he saw the amount of throwing weapons she pulled out, Eiji knew for the first time in his both lives what fear truly was...
"Girls are really scary when they are angry" - that's the last thought he had before he fainted from fear.
When he woke up and saw the number of weapons near him, he thought he died and woke up in hell where he will get tortured with those weapons for all eternity...
"Stop you evil demons, I'm the most virtuous person who has ever lived, you have the wrong guy!"
An icy voice answered: "You are calling me a demon? You know there is a limit to how shameless you can be..."
"Huh, wait I am alive and didn't end up in hell?"
"I can send you there if you want..."
"Uhhmm, long time no see Tenten?"
"..."
"Come one, don't be mad. I have a sensei now and just didn't have the time to tell you that I won't be coming here for a while..."
"..."
"I'm sorry."
"..."
"Will you forgive me if I let you eat as much Dango as you want?"
"...Yeah"
It looks like the saying is true, that the pathway to a girl's heart is sweets...
But all the money I saved will be gone because of this glutton...well considering it saves my life it's probably worth it.
"Koff, you said that you are currently low on cash so I bought a sword for you so we don't lose any time."
"I'm really thankful for that, but why is it pink?"
"Koff I thought it was your favorite color, no?" - Hayate smiled mischievously
"..."
"Anyway, you said that your Tree Climbing Practice goes well, right? If that's the case then I will show you a high-level technique. To be honest, learning it might take a long time, so if we add it to the training now, then you will save a lot of time later on - especially since one of your hands is practically unusable. But I will only teach it to you if you promise me something, okay?"
"Well it should be fine, but what promise?"
"That while you learn it, you will only practice it while I'm with you because it involves a dangerous ninjutsu."
"Gulp, alright I promise."
"Koff, then observe it while I show it to you...Leaf-Style Dance of the Crescent Moon!"
When he said that, two shadow clones appeared, and with them, Hayate leaped through the air in a formation reminiscent of the crescent move, and then they slashed simultaneously at the practice dummy.
"Koff, since it involves the shadow-clone jutsu I will teach it first to you before we start to train your movement and coordination with your clones for the technique. The shadow-clone jutsu is also the reason why it's so dangerous because it can deplete your chakra instantly if you don't handle it correctly, which can result in death."
"Yes sensei!"
Hayate smiled while he thought: "I told him in the past to not call me that, but since he called me it now at this moment, it means he respects me."
- Holy shit, it's the shadow-clone jutsu! Who cares about the Dance of the Crescent Moon, I can learn the shadow-clone jutsu! -
If Hayate could hear Eiji's thoughts at this moment he would certainly cry...
because the reason why he ate glue in the past was that he was so traumatized, that he needed some budget drugs!
"Hey Eiji, it's your turn, hurry up before the horror comes...Oh no did I just hear steps in the hallway? Come on hurry up there only two more matches to go!"
"Sorry guys but I have to shit..." - while he said that he ran out of the room, leaving the other children flabbergasted.
Feeling betrayed, they also started to run out of the room, while the unconscious Hatsumi slowly woke up while her demise slowly crept towards the room...
"Oh, can someone of you children stop playing for a minute to help me find my denture please?"

A few years passed.
A boy was staring at a training dummy.
He carried a pink sheathed sword in his right hand, while his left hand was only a few centimeters away from the grip.
His posture was slightly bent forward.
Suddenly he disappeared and appeared behind the dummy.
The sword was slightly unsheathed, and when he moved his right hand so that it could glide back fully into the sheath, a clean-cut appeared on the dummy's neck.
'I finally mastered a basic iaijutsu-technique...anyway I should get going now or I will be late'
The day the village's children enroll at the academy as a special one.
It signifies not only honor, but it's also seen as a turning point in most of the children's lives.
Because of that, for this special occasion, the Hokage himself is giving a speech.
It is a grand speech, which ignites the hearts of the children while also letting the present adults reminisce of the past when it was their enrollment day.
But one boy rolled his eyes and looked like he was bored to death.
'Does he really need to make his speech so long...anyway it looks like other than Tenten I only recognize Neji and Lee here... '
It wasn't Eijis enrollment...It was Tenten's.
So he stood next to her and her parents while looking at the ones he recognized.
Neji had a stern and unhappy look.
He was accompanied by a random Hyuga which was probably from the branch house.
'It looks like his father already died'
Next, he looked towards Lee.
'Well, he still has a normal haircut...anyway, even though it's boring here, I finally have the opportunity to find out Tenten's family name!'
Every time he asked her to finally tell it, she would always blush and say that it's too early for him to know and he should wait until she is ready.
His plan for today is to wait for an opportunity where he can just ask one of her parents.
After the Hokage finally finished his speech, all the formalities were finished, so a celebrating atmosphere erupted.
The parents would congratulate their own children and children from their friends.
"Tenten, congratulations! As your father, I can't be more proud of you that you choose the noble path to protect the village!"
"Congratulations, Tenten!"
"Thanks, mum and dad!"
She then looked at the Eiji who stood beside her.
After noticing her gaze he said: " To be honest, Enrolling isn't really worth celebrating since they would probably take even someone who sits in a wheelchair as long he spouts Fire of Will nonsense."
"..."
"I'm just joking, anyway congratulations, I have a gift for you"
He pulled out a kunai which was obviously specially made since it had beautiful markings and the characters 'Heaven, heaven' which means Tenten.
"..."
"What? You are still not satisfied? Just so you know, I used all my money for it, so I can't buy you, sweets."
"No, that's not it. Lord Hokage is behind you and heard what you said..."
"Hahaha, I have to admit, this was a great joke. I'm pleased that there are children in the village with a great sense of humor. By the way congratulations on your enrollment"
While Tenten was happy to be congratulated personally by the Hokage, Eiji was completely scared.
'Holy shit, where the hell did he jump out suddenly? Wasn't he giving his speech pretty far away from us? Shit, what do I say now?'
"Uhmm, good afternoon Lord Hokage?"
"Hahaha, good afternoon to you too. Even though it was a joke, there is some truth in the fact that the most important thing we are looking for in students is the Will of Fire. It's because it's even more important than ability and strength. After all, in times where your abilities aren't enough, it's the Will..."
After noticing that the Hokage will start a lengthy monologue about basically the same stuff he said in his speech, Eiji recovered from his shocked state and got bored fast, so he drifted with his thoughts away.
'So in a year, it will be my turn...
I can already use the shadow-clone jutsu even with my crippled hand since it's probably the easiest and plain hand seal and doesn't require precise finger movements to form.
When I told Hayate-sensei that I wanted to learn some iaijutsu, he told me that he doesn't have a lot of knowledge about that and that he would look, if there are any records in Konoha with some knowledge on iaijutsu.
Since he is a special Jonin, he just went to the Konoha Archive Library.
There he found some records of a former Konoha-Shinobi who traveled to the Land of Iron and who analyzed some of their iaijutsu techniques and wrote it down.
With my sensei's help, we could learn most of it, since there was only basic stuff recorded because the Shinobi wasn't taught anything there and all was just purely from his observations.
Sensei also told me, that I'm now pretty decent in kenjutsu overall.
Well, I could also see that when I sparred with Tenten...her parents noticed her talent in weaponry, so they started buying her a huge variety of weapons.
She basically can pick up any weapon for the first time and do decently with it.
Thank god, I can still beat her in swords duels, or else I would lose my pride as a swordsman!
Anyway, before I enroll, I need to master the Dance of the Crescent Moon, while starting to add my Wind chakra when I use the sword.
I don't think I will have the time to make progress with my chakra-acceleration till then though; this will probably have to wait till I'm in the academy and mastered everything else first.
"...and that is why the Will of Fire is the most important thing for the shinobis of our village, don't you agree?"
"Huh? Ah yes, yes, totally!"
When he looked beside him only he and the Hokage were still there, the rest already went home.
'No! I lost my chance to finally discover Tenten's family name!'
Oh no, not again...
It's now my enrollment at the academy.
I would be lying if I said that I wasn't nervous, seeing Naruto, Sasuke, and the others in reality for the first time.
That's why my eyes are bloodshot, not because I wanted to make a budget Uchiha cosplay, but rather because I couldn't sleep last night at all!
But because I have to listen to the old geezer's same speech as last year again, my nervousness vanished magically and now I have to be careful to not fall asleep instead!
Everyone is listening to him seriously, which also doesn't make it better, since the voice of the Hokage is the only thing you can hear now.
Well, in truth there are some exceptions...
Anyway, there is only one boy who isn't accompanied by family or friends.
He looks really sad, except when he notices that someone looks at him, then he sends a challenging glare to them.
Who could it be except for the protagonist of one of the most know anime with the iconic name - Boruto's Da - I mean Naruto Uzumaki!
I really feel bad for him, but as a mob, I should probably keep my distance so that I don't mess the whole world up with something like the butterfly-effect.
I mean it would be funny, to corrupt him and to see how things unfold, but I need someone to defeat tree-hippie Madara and those damn Aliens.
Anyway, he isn't the only important one here.
Sasuke is looking happy.
He is accompanied by his parents and by Itachi...I know he has many fans, but in my eyes, he is just another dirty Sharingan abuser!
And I'm not saying that because I'm jealous and also want a Sharingan - definitely not, I swear!
Sakura is...her forehead is really big, you could probably build a tent there - I better never say that out loud.
Choji...there is not a lot to say other than he is eating chips.
Shikamaru looks like he is bored to death...YES, I UNDERSTAND YOU COMPLETELY!
Ino is seriously listening to the speech though.
Kiba is more focused on Akamaru than the speech - I can't blame him.
Hinata is happy? I thought she would be shy and awkward but...oh right it must be the red scarf she is holding while looking over to our prince charming Naruto.
Shino...Shit, it's so hard not to laugh!
Seeing a little brat in a hooded jacket while wearing sunglasses is just too much!
Then there is Iruka who stands next to the Hokage.
It sure is weird seeing them in reality...I mean I already saw the Hokage and Tenten, but Hiruzen is making me always sleepy and Tenten is... a half mob.
Other than them there are some mobs, myself included.
But it doesn't surprise me that there are so many who are enrolling.
The day before was the enrollment test...and you just had to answer a few questions!
You just had to answer things like: I want to become a shinobi to protect my loved ones or other cheesy lines.
It was so dumb that I really had to hold myself back from telling sarcastic or cynical answers.
It was really hard to hold myself back!
Anyway, I think the only way to fail is to say edgy stuff like I want power or want to kill.
"Eiji! Congratulations!" - my mum suddenly hugged me.
Huh? Is the speech finally over?
"Eiji! Make me proud and form a hug hare-BUHAAAA..."
"Eiji! As your senior, congratulations! Anyway here is a gift."
Tenten gave me a panda bear pendant - that's really cool, to be honest...I like pandas.
"Koff, congratulations on your enrollment. I have something for you..."
Hayate-sensei gave me his present.
"Sensei, thank you but this is too much..."
It is a high-quality sword!
You can see that it is expensive: It is mostly black while the rest was violet.
It is a beautiful sword.
"No take it, it is proof that you are now an excellent swordsman. Also from today onwards I'm not your sensei anymore...there is nothing more I can teach you in terms of kenjutsu...but as a shinobi, you still have a lot to learn. So go to the academy and become a splendid shinobi!"
This guy...
"Thank you for everything, Hayate-sensei! I will become a shinobi you can be proud of!"
While saying that, I bowed to him to express my deepest gratitude.
'I definitely won't let you die!'
"Koff, I already said that you don't have to call me sensei anymore...by the way you should give your sword a name" - he said that with a small smile.
After thinking for a while I gave a smile and said: "I name it Kagayaku Haikei"
( Kagayaku Haikei = background which shines )
Hahaha, that's a great name. By the way congratulations on your enrollment."
WHAT THE!
If Hiruzen keeps appearing suddenly out of nowhere, one day I will definitely get a heart-stroke!
More importantly, why is he here?
Shouldn't he comfort Naruto or something since he is lonely?
"Uhmm, thanks..."
"Hahaha, anyway I wanted to tell you something. You know, it's pretty rare to get trained personally by a Jonin before enrolling in the academy, so I'm looking forward to your future...Hayate, how have you been?"
Hmm, it looks like I caught some attention...
Well, as long as it's only Hiruzen and not someone like Danzo everything should be fine.
And if he thinks I will become one of those turbo geniuses who rise to Anbu as kids, he will be disappointed, hehehehe.
Because even if could rise to Anbu I wouldn't!
The missions you get are too dangerous and it really hasn't any merit besides feeling cool and a good payment.
Anyway, it looks like he is done talking to Hayate and my parents, so I guess that's it for today.
So tomorrow I'm gonna be a student...
"Koff, why are you making that sad face?"
"Because it's a farewell, right? You said you won't teach me anymore, so I guess I probably won't see you anymore..."
"Koff, you are right, we probably won't see each other as student and sensei anymore. But that's why you have to do your best to graduate so we can see each other as fellow shinobis!"
I looked at his smile.
He is right; doesn't matter what happens or what I plan on doing, I should graduate first...
While thinking this, I feel how a smile forms on my mouth.
Now I'm kinda curious how the academy will be...
"Greetings, I'm Iruka Umino. I will be your head instructor from now on. Our first-class will be about the Will of Fire..."
'...alright, starting tomorrow I start skipping class.'
Eiji was currently sitting in the last row next to the window - alone.
When he first arrived he chose the last row so he doesn't get much attention but no one chose to sit next to him.
The reason is the way he looks.
He carries an adult-sized sword on his shoulder which is in stark contrast with his small child-body.
The sword has also a pendant, which looks like the face of a panda bear, attached to the end of the grip which absolutely doesn't suit the refined look of the high-quality sword.
Other than that, he is wearing a white shirt which is a bit too long and shorts with sandals, giving him a nonchalant look.
But the most important thing is his face.
It looks like he always wants to pick a fight with somebody.
In short - it's someone you don't want to get involved with.
"Okay, this was a basic rundown. Why don't we go to the roof, I will explain there more, while you get to see the faces of our Hokage."
'Hell no. I'm not going...if I hear another thing about the Will of Fire I will lose my mind! Let's just pretend that I somehow got separated from the group and got lost.'
While everyone started to follow Iruka towards the roof, Eiji sneaked into what looked like a training hall.
'I can wait here till everyone returns and then just sneak back into the group...'
"AHAHAHA, this stupid sensei couldn't see how I sneaked out."
"Geez, keep your voice down or else someone might hear us..."
"Ah yeah, Akamaru, sitting at a desk is boring, right?"
"( potato chips noises )"
...
Looks like I'm gonna be part of the troublemaker squad.
"Hey who are you? Are you here to tell on us?" asked Naruto with a challenging glare.
When he said that the rest looked towards Eiji.
"No, he looks like he is here to skip as well...anyway cant you keep your voice down?" - Shikamaru
"He is right, I'm here to skip too because I can't handle another Will of Fire speech..." - Eiji
"Alright then...but why do you walk around with a sword like a weirdo?" - Naruto
"I honestly think walking with a sword around isn't as weird as taking your dog to school." - Eiji
"Oh yeah, he is right. Hey you over there, what happens if your dog has to pee?!" - Naruto
'Hmm, it looks like right now they don't really know each other...well considering that we students still didn't introduce ourselves it makes sense.'
"Hey if you have a problem with Akamura being here, then say that directly to my face!" - Kiba
"Hmph, like I would get scared telling that straight to your dumb-looking face!" - Naruto
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" - Kiba
"Geez, can you guys calm down? If you guys start fighting now, someone might hear us. Anyway I'm gonna take a nap so keep your voices down..." - Shikamaru
"Hmph" - Naruto
"Whatever...Akamaru let's move around to blast some steam off!"
"Woff!"
"Hey didn't you hear what I just said?" - Shikamaru
"Hey can I have some of your chips?" - Eiji
"!!!"
"I only asked...why do you look at me like I burned your house down..." - Eiji
'Haaa this will be a long day...'
Meanwhile on the roof.
"So that's it for today. Since it's the first day we finish earlier today. Oh, by the way, tomorrow you will all introduce yourselves, so if you need to, you have time to prepare for it. Remember to be careful on your way home!"
"Yes sensei!"
"Uhm excuse me sensei, I think there are some missing from our group..."
"I already know that. Still thanks for telling me...did they honestly think I wouldn't notice?"
In the training hall after some time, everyone started to mind their own business and didn't interact much with each other.
But that was when the door slammed open and a scary-smiling Iruka went in.
"You guys really have some guts to skip classes on your first day at the academy! What do you guys have to say?"
"I feel stiff sitting at the desk all day, so I needed to move, don't you agree Akamaru?"
"Woff!"
"I felt tired and needed a place to relax..."
" (Potato chips noises) "
"I don't need to attend some stupid classes since one day I will become the Hokage!"
Iruka thought 'So this is the brat who has the nine-tails?'
"You are misunderstanding, sensei. I somehow got separated and got lost, so when I saw these fellow students I wanted to ask them where to go, but they threatened me to stay with them so I couldn't tell on them..." - Eiji
When all the other children heard it they had all the same thought: 'This damn shameless traitor!'
Betraying didn't pay off and Eiji needed to run laps like the others...
Oh man, yesterday was a total disaster.
Anyway, it's the second day now, and it looks like Sasuke has already his fan club.
It looks like he is kinda awkward with it though since he still isn't in his emo phase.
But other things are like you would expect.
"Listen here you all! My name is Naruto Uzumaki and one day I will become the Hokage!"
I swear he if he keeps shouting before I graduate I will become completely deaf...
But to be fair, when introducing he wasn't the only one who said Hokage stuff - he was just the only one who shouted...
Most just said their names and that they want to become a shinobi so there isn't much to say...well it looks like it's my turn now.
"I'm Eiji Nakamura and I don't have a goal. But one thing you should know about me is is that I'm a paragon of virtue, noble and virtuous like a Buddha, you won't find anyone who is more truthful and trustworthy than me..."
"HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT YOU SHAMELESS TRAITOR!"
"Keep your voice down Naruto!" - Iruka
"..."
Somehow no one looks convinced...I wonder why?
