Chapter 12 : The Scroll that look old

After walking to the podium with grandfather aura and smile.

The hokage start his speech

The will of fire is the spirit of konoha, it is the bond that connects us together. It is a legacy that was inherited from my teachers, the first and second hokage. It is a belief that passes down from our ancestors who sacrifice their sweat and blood for our child so they can have a safe place to call home.

Thanks to the effort of many people, the academy has been rebuilt so our child can have their education back.

.....

...…

...

…

I hope you can cherish this place.

When the tree leaves dance,

One shall find flames.

The fire's shadow will illuminate the village,

And once again, tree leaves shall bud anew.

After a while the speech finally finished and everyone started clapping their hands.

Watching the 3rd hokage speech while being carried by his mother, he doesn't have any feeling about it. He doesn't want to make a judgment from what he knows about someone that the only information he knew was from the previous world.

He really needs to try not to judge them by their anime characters counterpart because the existence of himself is proven otherwise.

He doesn't know why he is having an existential crisis all of sudden. Maybe he needs to stop thinking about heavy stuff all the time and enjoying his little time as a kid.

After a speech and talking for some time everyone goes back to their home because the night is coming.

After his mother said goodbye to the group and he got his cheek pinched again by Auntie Chomi, he was carried by his mother on the way back home.

Entering their home he just realized that his father is already gone.

Looks like hokage office is really busy with how many ninja were lost after 9 tails attack, so if it's not the head of the clan everyone is busy trying to recover the village's stability.

"Kai, go take a shower, mother is gonna prepare for the dinner" his mother said while lowering him down and proceeding to the kitchen to prepare the dinner.

Going upstairs and entering his room he proceeded to take a shower.

After a refreshing shower he goes down and starts eating dinner with his mother.

After he finished his meal he proceeded to his room, while in his room he remembered the scroll his father made for him to do his training while he was away.

Sitting at his desk he looked at the drawer where he put the scroll away. Taking the scroll that was in his drawer, he looked at the scroll that his father gave him.

It looks like an old paper who get roll, with some kind of a death vine that was made to be a rope to tie it.

It gives the impression of something old that was fragile and precious.

Trying to untie the rope with caution, he unrolls the paper the longer he unrolls the paper the uglier his face becomes.

What's inside the paper is only a goofy drawing of a row of figures about how to run the correct way and at the end of the drawing this figure seems to be exhausted.

So basically the content of the scroll is only about running until you are exhausted.

Trying to calm himself down, he needs to remember it came from one of the best taijutsu users in the world and maybe his father is very considerate because it is no use even if the content of the scroll is important just because he doesn't even know how to read kanji yet.

Trying to be positive about his father's intentions he rolls back the paper and ties it back and saves it in his drawer.

Laying in his bed he looks at the ceiling of his room, thinking of so much happening in just a few days but he doesn't know why but he likes it very much, he just feels more alive than ever.

He really passes so many good things life can give in his previous world by only stay In his room all day long.

He doesn't want to lose this second chance that was given to him.

Closing his eyes trying to sleep.

*Ting

Sound of a bell ring made him open his eyes again.
