================================================================

Kenichi first goes to wash his hands in the washroom. Kenichi looked at the mirror and saw a black haired baby with golden eyes. He tried moving his chakra towards his eyes. After some time his eyes turned dark blue with a dragon like iris, his Yonggan.

However, Kenichi immediately deactivated the Yonggan due to the lack of chakra. Kenichi then went to the dinner room where his father was reading a book while sitting at the dinner table and his mother cooking.

Kenichi greeted his parents firstly: "Good Morning, Mom and Dad!"

Naturally his parents replied: "Morning!"

Kenichi who was hungry asked his mother: "Mom, I'm hungry."

His mother came with a fried egg on a plate: "Here you go honey!"

Kenichi happily ate the egg after saying: "Thanks Mom."

Kenichi while eating breakfast started a conversation: "Dad, something happened when I woke up today."

His parents raised their eyebrows while Isamu asked: "What happened?"

Kenichi looked at his father and activated the Yonggan and then deactivated it in a few seconds. His parents were gobsmacked and just stared at him for a few moments. Kenichi decided to give them time to process the information and thus continued to eat as though the situation had nothing to do with him.

Once his parents broke free from their confusion his mother asked first: "Baby, since when?"

Kenichi continued to eat while replying: "When I woke up. But I can't keep it awakened for long. It gets exhausting."

His father thought for a while before saying: "That's natural. You probably don't have enough Chakra yet to keep it activated. For now don't use it. I will ask your grandfather to check it himself."

Kenichi naturally agreed: "Ok. And dad, I want to start training as a ninja. Can you get me some beginner theory books and training equipment."

His father looked at him with surprise before saying: "We will discuss this when your grandfather will also be present."

Kenichi agreed before continuing to eat his breakfast. When he finished eating, he went to the living room and sat at one side of the shogi board, waiting for his mother. It's normal routine for Kenichi to play shogi with his mother. Now that he gained these memories, Kenichi suspects that his mother may be a Nara, although he has no proof.

Kenichi never played Shogi in his past life and so he gained no experience for it. Luckily he did play chess a lot so his strategizing wasn't bad.

After playing and learning a few new tactics, Kenichi decided he wanted to go out to play. Hina took Kenichi to the playground and left him there. Kenichi ignored the other kids and looked around for his friends. After a while he found both of them playing in a corner, away from other kids.

Kenichi ran towards them saying: "Hey guys. Sorry I'm late."

The two friends he greeted were the Blonde Uzumaki Twins, Naruto Uzumaki and Mito Uzumaki. Kenichi became friends with them when he first met them at the age of 3, when he followed his grandfather.

Mito replied with a normal lively greeting: "Good Morning!"

Naruto replied with a greeting and a question: "Good Morning Kenichi. What should we play today?"

Kenichi answered immediately: "Anything you two want."

The 3 kids ended up playing with the rides in the playground. This continued till around 2:30 after which another kid came towards them.

Kenichi looked at him and said: "Good Morning Sasuke! Perfect timing, our game just ended."

Sasuke looked at Kenichi and greeted back before greeting Mito and Naruto as well. Kenichi, Naruto and Mito became friends with Sasuke 3 months ago, when they saw him sitting alone on a swing.

Befriending a child Sasuke wasn't difficult since he was still a child. Sasuke only became anti-social and an avenger because of the Uchiha Incident.

The 4 kids continued playing. Naruto and Sasuke argued all the time while Mito and Kenichi, who were used to the couple's argument, ignored them.

In between, Sasuke suddenly said: "By the way, tomorrow will be my rite to passage. I will start training as a ninja so I won't be able to come that often."

Kenichi thought a bit before replying: "Although I don't have this rite of passage, I will be starting my ninja training as well."

Naruto and Mito were sad while Naruto complained: "I wish I could train as well but I don't know how to."

Kenichi thought for a bit before offering them: "Why don't you join me?"

Naruto and Mito were stunned before Naruto exclaimed: "Really?"

Mito also added: "Is that ok? Will your parents accept?"

Kenichi understood their worry: "Don't worry! My parents won't mind at all. What about you Sasuke? Wanna join?"

Sasuke replied almost immediately: "Sure. If my Big brother isn't home, then I will definitely come."

Kenichi raised his fist infront of them in excitement: "Great! Then lets train to become the greatest ninjas. To be greater then all the Hokage combined!"

The other 3 were surprised by their friends dream but smiled before each said their own dream and goal.

Sasuke said: "To be greater then my brother and become the strongest Uchiha!"

Naruto said: "To be the greatest Hokage!"

Mito said: "To become the strongest Kunoichi!"

The 4 kids made an immature declaration without knowing that all 4 will perform feats far surpassing their dream. After their declaration, they continued to play until Kenichi's and Sasuke's mothers came to return them home.

Kenichi before leaving told Naruto and Mito to come to his home by 12:00 pm. Sasuke and Kenichi left while Naruto and Mito were a little excited for tomorrow.

Back at home Kenichi goes back to his room. While waiting for dinner, Kenichi decides to start Meditation in order increase his chakra reserves.

A good way to build up chakra in the body is to spin it into a tight spiral. Whether to spin the chakra left or right is dependent on the way the user's hair grows. Kenichi's hair grows towards the right.

Suddenly Kenichi saw a message.

[Skills tab now available]

In his curiosity Kenichi said in his mind: 'Skills'

[Skills: Exercises]

There was only one option so Kenichi mentally said that.

[Meditation (Level 1) {2%}]

Kenichi looking at this immediately guessed.

'Perhaps other options will only appear when I practice them. I wonder if I can get descriptions... wait. In some Japanese Manga the Status Screen gives description of a skill or parameter if mentally focused on it.'

Kenichi then mentally focused on Meditation and gained a description.

[Meditation (Level 1) {2%}]

[Description:

Meditation is a training technique utilized by few shinobi to increase their Chakra capacity and to strengthen their control over their chakra.

Meditation is utilized by one sitting with their legs crossed and putting there hands together, channeling chakra throughout their body and focusing on it as much as they can.]

Kenichi was now even more motivated to max the level of this skill and thus went back to meditating. By 8:30 he hears his mother's call for dinner and thus goes downstairs for dinner, only to find out his grandfather was also joining in today.

After dinner, Hiruzen asked Kenichi to show him his 'new eye'. Kenichi naturally showed Hiruzen the Yonggan. Hiruzen looked at this 'new eye' with a contemplative look.

Hiruzen thought: 'I have never heard or seen a Dojutsu like this before. This is most definitely a Dojutsu due to a mutation.'

Hiruzen suddenly said it out loud: "This is a new Dojutsu. Kenichi for now don't expose this eye infront of others."

Kenichi agreed since he understood the cancer in the village, namely Danzo. Kenichi knows that until he is strong enough, he won't expose his Dojutsu.

Kenichi, remembering his talk with his friends, asked: "Grandpa! I want to start training to be a ninja."

Hiruzen, a little surprised, replied: "You want to start this early?"

Kenichi replied: "Yes. I want to learn everything. I want to be someone stronger then all the Hokage."

Hiruzen asked with a raised eyebrow: "You don't want to be the Hokage?"

Kenichi replied: "No. I would rather be the Hokage's right hand man or something."

Hiruzen suddenly smiled: "Ok then what do you want."

Kenichi almost immediately replied: "I want basic theory books for everything a ninja can do as well as using the sword. Also can Naruto, Mito and sometimes Sasuke come to our house to train with me?"

Hiruzen thought for a bit before replying: "Sure, your father already told me about your wish to train, so I have already brought the basic theory books. But since you are still young, your mother will be overseeing your training until you grow older. As for Sasuke, Naruto and Mito you can bring them if they agree."

Hiruzen thought today was a good day. Not only is his grandson starting training to be a ninja early but the Uzumaki twins were as well. Especially under the supervision of Hina, an Elite Jonin, all 4 could end up being very strong. This way not only are the two Nine-Tails Jinchuriki going to be trained properly, thus fulfilling his promise to Minato, but with Sasuke Uchiha visiting often, he could, perhaps, convince Fugaku Uchiha for a more peaceful ending.

As for Isamu and Hina Sarutobi, they already had a talk among themselves and agreed for this early training. This decision however boiled down to the fact that Kenichi had a new Dojutsu and thus it was necessary for him to grow as strong as possible, before this information leaks out, to protect himself.

Having finished the conversation, Kenichi helped his mother out a bit before going back to his room. Seeing as it is still 9:00, Kenichi continued practicing meditation for an hour before stopping for today. He the looked at the Meditation skill level.

[Meditation (Level 2) {38%}]

Since it was 10:00 pm, Kenichi decided to go to sleep, excited for tomorrow's training. And thus marked the start of Kenichi's training and ninja path.
