CHAPTER 3

THOUGHTS

As I continue to walk around the village, I noticed that the villager's attitude towards me are good. Someone even gave me some food and said to come by sometimes so I could receive more food if I am low on supply.

I thanked the kind hearted man and said that I would surely visit more often and help around so I won't seem to be so ungrateful.

While talking to the people of the village, I realized that this original body's owner seemed to be an orphan, and I suspect that his parents may have died in sickness or killed by those shinobi in a conflict or as a collateral.

I learned that the village is named after a gold mine near it, the villagers call it the Katabami gold mine. This area is situated inside the Land of rivers, a country that borders between the Land of Wind and the Land of fire.

'f@#$! I am really in Naruto..'

Once I learned the name of this place, I was very surprised. In the original anime series, if my guess is correct, then I may be in the body of Ranmaru, Raiga's partner, acting as his additional eyes and ears in exchange for protection being carried upon Raiga's back. I estimated that with this current body's age, I only have a few months to a year before Raiga meets Ranmaru in the original anime series.

With my neck length purple hair and red iris which I discovered when looked down on a puddle of water on the ground. Paired with a small and weak body, this facts further supported my conjecture about my current identity.

'If I am correct, then the possibility of obtaining greater power and immortality is close within my grasp. The power of Ranmaru's kekkei genkai, his dojutsu, which is believed to be superior to the byakugan, well… ahem… not including the evolve form of byakugan which is OP.'

"I need to start planning for my future. I don't want to get entangled with a lunatic shinobi who loves to bury people alive and feels sad after killing someone unscrupulously then kills people at random again."

The moment I went home, it was already dusk, I immediately looked for a mirror and found a small palm sized mirror in my room. Then I lit up a candle and looked into the reflection of my eyes and tried to concentrate, but nothing happened. I don't have any experience in this things so this will be hard.

"It looks like I have not activated my dojutsu yet. I should plan my training to increase my physical energy or stamina and meditate after, to increase my spiritual energy. "

The earlier I unlock my powers, the more I receive resources because with the ability of my dojutsu to hypnotized and cast genjutsu tecniques. It may sound bad to cheat people using my powers, but f@#$ it! I am not spiderman. I need to eat to survive and more resources to live until the end. And to achieve that I need strength. But it seems that I have forgotten another problem which is the most important. I don't have much food in the house. I need to look for work tomorrow, so I can have money for food and materials needed for my training."

So I decided to sleep after eating the leftover roasted potato. This body is so weak and looked very malnourished, my body is underweight and my height is stunted which is very noticeable when I stood with the children earlier this morning. I really look like a dwarf compared to children in my age group in this village. No wonder Raiga always carry him on his back in the original timeline.

'Stop thinking already, I need to rest for tomorrow.' However I couldn't sleep so I just sat in lotus position to calm my mind.

A few minutes or hours gone by, I felt something in my lower body, but then I ignored it. I may have been just feeling uncomfortable and needed to urinate. Then I didn't notice that I have already slipped into a comfortable sleeping position and entered dreamland.

In my dreams, I saw Madara in his red armor who kicked my door and looked inside, and asked me: "YOW!! Where's that punk Hashirama? I have come to settle some score with him!"

'why the f@#$ are you here you goat!! Go to konoha you Thanos wanna be!(A.N.: don't get excited over this guys and overreact.)
