After saying goodbye to Sakumo Yui quickly ran home with both swords wrapped in her back, "Yui good afternoon!" One of the people on the street shouted at her and attracted several other people who greeted her as well.

"Good afternoon oji-san!" Yui greeted them back as she ran down the street, she was well known in these poorer areas for dealing with bandits and helping the elders in the neighborhood.

"What a good little girl!" One of the elders said smiling and another elder on his side nodded, most of them saw Yui as their own granddaughter," She is so cute and sweet that it's a shame she spends most of her time training in the forest, otherwise she would make a great wife! " One of the seniors said.

"Well but you know why she does it, Yui wants to improve her mother's life by enrolling in the ninja academy and becoming a shinobi!" Another old man said and they stared for a moment before saying together.

"What a good girl!"

-------------------------------------------

"Mom I got home!" Yui yelled as she opened her house door and found her mother sewing on the bench, "Oh Yui, you came back early today!" Aika nodded and dropped the sewing items and motioned for Yui to come closer before starting to pinch her cheeks.

"Mother it hurts!" Yui said as her mother took her cheeks, "Tell me my daughter what's that behind your back!" The air grew colder at that moment and Yui felt the grip on her cheeks tighten.

Yui looked at her mother and noticed a demon emerging from her aura startling her, "I found them!" She said hurriedly as she tried to be as quiet as possible so as not to reveal anything to her mother, "Oh really?" Aika asked once more and Yui nodded her head strongly.

"Did you find these swords the same way you found two other swords, complete packages of ninja gear with explosive tags, money and many other things?" Yui felt the lie she always uses crumble and was quiet trying to come up with another plan.

"(Sigh.) It's okay you don't have to tell me just promise me it's nothing dangerous!" Aika let out a heavy sigh and forced Yui to promise that it's nothing bad, but how could she promise something that isn't true after all if the village finds out that whoever has the swords is she would probably be chased to the end of the world.

"You!!!" Aika let out another sigh when she saw that her daughter was hesitating to swear in front of her and decided to change the subject, "You know the exam for the academy is in a few days, will you participate?"

The minimum age to apply to the academy is 5 years old, although most children apply when they turn 6 to 8 years old, only talented clan children apply at that age.

"Yes I will sign up!" Yui said, even though Sakumo is collecting the swords for her and that she could train freely if she went with him, Yui still correctly remembers the events that happen.

Konoha is not safe for her mother at the moment, to tell you the truth the safest place until the day of the clan rebellion is the fog village which cannot be attacked because of its location and no ninja going from another village would cause problems in the slums of the village.

That's why Yui was confident to remain a fog ninja, a Konoha spy, and probably a future renegade if all goes well,"Yui, I know you've already made up your mind but is this the path you're going to follow?" Aika asked looking into Yui's eyes looking for any hesitation.

"Yes mom, this is the future I want!" Yui said, but what she really meant was, "If I don't choose this future there will be no future for me!" After all, the ninja world is cruel and only the strong can survive in it.

----------

A few days later Yui went to register with her Uncle Horoki, on the way they will come several children older than Yui heading towards the registration zone for normal people, of course most people would be rejected but even so they did the civil test.

"Remember Yui, the ninja academy is like a criminal faction!" Hiroki began his not-so-healthy explanation of the ninja academy, "The teachers are the bosses, the clan children are the relatives of the bosses, and the civilians are the henchmen who can be eliminated at any time if they make a wrong move!".

"Ehhh, yes?" Yui scratched his head in confusion as he heard his Uncle's explanation, "You don't need to understand now, it will make sense to you later!" Hiroki said and they finally got to take the test.

"Name and age!" The evaluator (Senku) said practically uninterested in Yui, "Yui, 5 years old!" Hiroki said and Senku wrote it down on a paper before pulling out a scroll to measure Chakra.

"Put your hand on that paper!" And Yui was a bit nervous and took a deep breath before putting her hands on the paper, (Puff) The paper disintegrated into ash leaving Senku surprised that he tried to chase the paper in the air for a moment.

"You!" He accepted reality after a few seconds and grabbed another more expensive looking parchment, "Put your hand here please!" He said while keeping his eyes fixed on the result.

The other examiners who were in the tents next door also saw this scene and diverted their attention which made those in the queues also look at Yui who began to sweat and slowly lowered her hand to the second parchment.

"Amazing, you have both Chakra and a jounin!" Senku exclaimed in surprise, the crowd of people who were also paying attention were surprised and several muffled conversations started.

"Please follow me!" Senku said and gestured for Yui to go after him, Hiroki also a little surprised followed after soon after, they entered the courtyard of the academy where several tests were being conducted.

Soon Yui took the throw test which was pretty easy, written which she happened to pass with 100 percent after all the content was general knowledge and basic math, the Chakra control test which she had a bit of difficulty but passed with a median manipulation.

"Hey this girl is amazing!" Throughout the tests the attention of several examiners was called and they looked at the sheet that was written on Yui's tests and were surprised, "She's a genius!" Another examiner said and they turned around. to look at Yui who was hiding behind Hiroki who had his face frozen in a grim expression.

Don't think he's sad, he's actually quite happy for his niece but a thought came to his mind, "I remember getting almost half of these tests, but Yui was better than me at everything!" Hiroki took his pride in ninja destroyed by his 5-year-old niece.

"Alright Yui, do you have any combat skills?" Senku asked with a big smile on his face thinking he would get a promotion after finding such a talent.

"I know a little about fencing." Yui said softly as she pretended to be embarrassed gaining the sympathy of everyone in the place and making Senku drop his guard, "Well I need to test your fighting skills could you have a little round with me?"

He asked sweetly trying to please Yui as she gave an evil smile mentally as she nodded her head cutely, "Then follow me!" He said and entered one of the dueling stages and Yui followed behind.

Before Yui took the stage she took her sword from her waist and handed it to Hiroki to keep it, "Is this girl worried about hurting me?" Senku said and smiled silly when he noticed Yui's sweetness.

However, what he didn't know was that this action of hers would guarantee that he would remain in one piece, the two climbed onto the stage and the examiner passed a wooden sword to Yui while she had her hands empty on the other side.

"Come and attack me with everything you've got!" He said trying to cheer Yui up to give her the best, "Are you sure sensei, you won't get hurt?" Yui asked as he put his finger to his lip.

"Yes, you can come with everything!" Senku stated once more but soon felt butterflies in her stomach when Yui's expression and a sadistic smile appeared on her face, "Well then I will go with all my strength sensei, don't die Ok !" Senku's unease steadied and his instincts sent out calls for danger.

Swoosh!

Yui who was standing in front of her disappeared into her vision for a moment before reappearing in front of her with his sword raised, "Good night sensei." Yui said and lowered the sword hard.

That was the last thing he saw before he lost consciousness.
