Flashback: 1

(3rd person PoV)

Age: 5

Kakashi Hatake has just made a record by graduating from the Academy at the age of 5. And because of that, many clans have been pressuring their children to perform better.

And Uchiha clan tops the list, tying only with Hyuga clan.

Afterall, Hyuga clan is the STRONGEST!

Anyway, this is the story of an ordinary Uchiha household with ordinary Jonin parents and an extraordinary kid.

Uchiha Tou and Uchiha Kaa had a 5 year old son, Uchiha Mikaboshi. And that kid was a genius, if a bit weird. Even by ninja world standards where it isn't weird for kids to talk fluently by the age of 3, he started speaking fluently as early as 1.5 years. Though he spoke very less compared to other children, it was readily acceptable by the clan.

Afterall, he has the blood of Uchiha in his veins! And arteries too!

But it became weird when Uchiha Tou and Uchiha Kaa found their 3 year old kid using his chakra without any help, and stuck on a tree with his belly and a whole lot of leaves sticking on him.

Things became more weird when he turned 4 and they found him shooting Kunai and Shuriken in the air to massacre birds without any remorse a child would feel.

"I was just practicing my aim on moving targets."

That day, 23 sparrows and 10 crows died.

Tou and Kaa then taught him about importance of life fearing that their child will develop psychopathic tendencies, or atleast that should have happened!

But instead, they were proud of his incredible aim and boasted about it throughout the clan. Afterall, they are Uchiha.

And as Kakashi has graduated from the Academy, now the Uchiha clan is putting pressure on little Mikaboshi to graduate as well.

"Why?"

Mikaboshi asked the Clan Head when he came to his house.

"I believe you are capable of being a Genin, far greater than Kakashi Hatake."

"So?"

"What do you mean so? What will you achieve remaining in Academy!?"

"...Not being shoved into war. Not facing bullying because of being a kid which will disrupt the effectiveness of missions. More time to develop my Fuinjutsu skills. More time to train into Clan techniques. Not becoming a target of assassination from other villages. That's a few, and I will only realise more downsides of graduating early as I observe Kakashi's life."

"You are running away from hurdles? You are an Uchiha! Uchiha are not cowards!"

"We are not in Warring Era before foundation of village. So I don't think I need to fight at this age."

"So what? It's your duty as a member of Uchiha Clan!"

"... Give me 2 million Ryo monthly, and I will graduate right now."

"Why you-"

"I don't believe in moral duty. I believe in work for returns. I won't do anything for free."

"..."

Uchiha Clan Head, Uchiha Goman stared at Kaa and Tou in shock. They just sighed as if they have given up.

"What have you been teaching this kid?"

"...We are sorry. We should just accept how are kids are, right? If Mika-chan doesn't want to graduate, isn't it alright?"

Uchiha Kaa said to persuade the Clan Head. If she had more influence, she would have beaten up the crap out of Goman. Sigh, despite bragging about her kid to other moms, her influence was only limited to them. And her husband only said 'Hn', and didn't increase his influence among the men. And sadly, the Clan Head's wife had developed a grudge against her due to constant bragging.

Uchiha Kaa just learned a lesson about why it is bad to brag about kids.

Uchiha Goman didn't seem to be the person to back down, and that's why Uchiha Tou said something that was different from Hn.

"Mikaboshi will graduate only if he awakens his Sharingan. Even if you are the Clan Head, you have no right to dictate my child's life. Sakumo has made the stupidest decision to let Kakashi graduate so early. And I will not follow the trend like a sheep. Please leave if you want to force my kid in this foolishness."

"Wha-! How dare you!?"

Goman shouted at the outrageousness of the usually quiet Tou. But Tou just kept his eyes closed and siping on his tea.

"By the way, uncle Goman, when did you graduate?"

Mikaboshi innocently asked.

"...At the age of 10."

"Then don't tell me what to do. If you want me to graduate right now, I want 2 million Ryo months throughout my life as a compensation for snatching my Childhood. I know that Hyuga clan will make fun of us and say, 'Hahaha! The Uchihas don't have strong adults left, and they are forcing kids to fight! Told you, Hyuga Clan is the strongest!'."

"... Seriously, what do you teach him?"

Finally, Uchiha Goman left the house after a failed 'councelling' to force a 5 year old kid to graduate. But he will not give up. Afterall, he is Uchiha GOMAN!
