"Timeskip"

[6 years later]

Tanzaku Gai.

A boy who looked to be around six was standing in front of a lake with a calculative gaze.

Beside him, standing was a man with short and spiky brown hair. He stroked his scruffy beard and glanced at the boy with his gleaming blue eyes. His white kimono, with a black symbol of a sun on the back, was constantly getting swept by the wild blows of the wind.

He was looking at the boy with unusually narrowed eyes. His hands, neatly kept in his back, were restlessly rubbing each other.

Even though it's almost impossible for any 5 year old to perform a B rank jutsu on his first try, the man still hoped that the boy could do it.

He wasn't expecting him to successfully execute the Jutsu on his first try since no one was ever able to do that; he at least wanted him to produce some wind pressure, but little did he know that he was in for a bitter surprise.

The boy slowly took two steps back and started to form hand seals in rapid succession.

Rat>Snake>Horse>Dog

He inhaled a large amount of air, and after imbuing chakra, exhaled all the air while spinning his head.

The air coming out of his mouth formed countless large blades entirely made up of wind.

The sharpened wind blades were large enough to slice through multiple targets and affect a substantial area around him.

The countless wind slashes went cutting through the air and destroyed the tranquil scenery in front of the boy. The calm lake was overrun with small waves produced by the violent wind pressure.

It would be quite an understatement to say that the man was shocked. He was in utter disbelief; not only did the boy execute the technique perfectly, but it was somewhat larger and more powerful than his own technique.

He knew about his son having a huge amount of chakra, which was even unheard of among their former neighbours, the Uzumakis. But, the way that the technique was executed was flawless and barely any chakra was wasted.

After a bit, his mouth stretched for a large smile, and his face tilted very slightly upward as he rubbed his nose sheepishly.

After all, it was all about talent; it had nothing to do with chakra and thinking of his son being more gifted than him made him ever so proud.

"Good! You did very well, Karna. There was never a person who was able to perform this jutsu on his first try and as potently as yours. I am very proud of you, son."

"Thanks, Dad."

Karna's reply was short since he didn't like to use more words than needed, but there was an underlying hesitation in his voice that screamed to him, urging him to talk more to his father. But he forcibly dismissed it and kept a poker face that looked quite funny on his six-year-old appearance.

Kyo noticed the incongruous behaviour of his son but shrugged it off as he was aware of his son's special situation.

"Since we're done with the ninjutsu, you can come at me boy. Let me see how much you've improved your taijutsu."

Kyo provoked Karna as he got into his taijutsu stance.

"Sure." Karna too got into a battle stance and soon rushed at Kyo.

After 20 minutes, an exhausted Karna was lying in the field drenched in sweat and bruised in many places while Kyo stood in front of him, unscathed.

"Not bad, khozo. You've improved so much in so little time, I'm really proud of you. And I must say you've learned the clan's taijutsu appropriately and your taijutsu skills have become more accurate than before. What you lack now is strength, which you'll get when you grow a little more. I look forward to when you'll have the necessary strength to back up your skills, but for now please clean up and head back home otherwise I'll have to hear a handful from my wife."

"I will go back after a bit. You can head back first, and I promise, I won't be late this time."

"Very well, make sure to not be late then."

Kyo used body flicker jutsu and almost instantly disappeared from Karna's view.

"Sigh! I still couldn't touch him. Tch! this weak ass body! I'll have to wait for at least two more years to pressure him even a little at taijutsu."

Karna sighed and looked at the vast sky above him. The ever changing clouds reminded him of how his life changed drastically since his rebirth.

'I still remember the day I was born again and it wasn't fun at all. My life changed so much since then. I could've never imagined that I'll be born in a reality that I thought to be nothing but fiction. If that wasn't enough I also got new parents. They aren't bad or anything, they're great people and they love me the most in the world but it's just that my past trauma with parents created a wall between us that I can't quite break yet. I think I don't deserve them. My birth perhaps took away the real son they never got to have. Isn't that what I always did? Taking away the lives of what people hold precious?'

Karna's sight was blurred because of the tears flowing out of his eyes. He got up and sat on the ground while cleaning his eyes of tears.

Being a Yakuza wasn't easy for him; he had to take away many lives for his family and their company.

The guilt still haunted him to this date, and he thought of himself as the reason for his parent's loss, which made him even more distant from them.

'Anyway, since the 3rd ninja war ended I think father would now head towards Konoha. He already delayed it for two years because of my birth, but I don't support this idea. It's nothing but a place filled with hypocrite bastards. I think they're equally related to the destruction of the Uzumaki village, but I don't have any proof for that. All I can do for now is to hope that nothing goes wrong. Perhaps, my father being an elite jonin and a close ally to the Uzumakis will help, and Kushina and Minato are still alive, so I'm a bit hopeful.'

Karna was born in a clan called Yagami clan. They were known for their taijutsu and were close allies to the Uzumaki clan. They were also one of the many clans that resided in Uzushiogakure, and when Uzushiogakure was attacked Kyo along with Kazuya fled from the village; Later on, they kept moving from place to place until Kazuya was pregnant with Karna.

So, they decided to set up a temporary abode in Tanzaku, but now that Karna was old enough and the war has ended, they decided to move to Konoha.

Karna sat on the ground in Indian style with his eyes closed. His breathing was calm, unmoved by the cold blows of the northern wind.

'Even after wasting this much chakra I still have two third of my chakra left? Note to self: I'm a fucking monster. No wonder I have to eat all that food. Now I almost feel pity for that blond-haired kid. I wonder how much chakra he had, but it matters not, since there's the plot armour up his ass for his repeated respawns. Mother said I had two hundred times more chakra than a normal baby when I was born, which was unheard of within our clan as well as the Uzumakis. My chakra reserves would be considered an anomaly, but that's not the end of the perks I received.

'I was born with a special constitution, every moment my body absorbs a different kind of energy than chakra or natural energy. At first, I thought it was natural energy, but when I revealed it to my father he said otherwise as he was quite accustomed to natural energy. This energy, which I think comes from the sun, tempers my body and cells and makes me stronger every passing moment, my chakra reserves and my physical capabilities slowly but steadily improve every moment. Although, I cannot actively absorb or manipulate this energy for some reason.

'My father said that there were no known occurrences such as mine noted in the history of our clan and this could very well be an ability I've manifested on my own.'

Karna finished his meditation or chakra refining as he slowly opened his eyes and got up. The sky was getting darker and if he didn't move now he might get late for home.

Although he wasn't quite close to his parents, they never lost an opportunity to show love for him. So, he didn't want to be late and disappoint them.
