It was the morning of April 1st. Daichi and Kensei were walking down the road. Their destination - The Academy. It didn't take them long to reach the place.
Daichi was excited. He'd been waiting for this day for a long time. Both Daichi and his grandfather walked through the entrance gate of the academy building.
They saw dozens of parents and their children roaming the grounds. Kensei brought Daichi to the academy a week ago to get him registered. He answered some questions and completed some easy physical tests. After the teacher reviewed the results, Daichi was successfully signed on as an academy student.
Right now the entrance ceremony was about to take place. As the time for the ceremony to begin was nearing, the academy teachers instructed the new students to stand in several lines. The parents stood back watching the children stand in order.
Daichi was looking around the place. He spotted some familiar faces among the children and parents. He was using 'observe' and most of the kids were around 3-7 level. But they were mostly civilian children. Daichi spotted a couple of clan kids and they were around 7 and 8 level.
'Looks like those from the clan receive training even before joining this place. But that's to be expected. But even most of them only have a level of around 7 to 9. Looks like I'm the strongest in this batch. I guess all that intense training really paid off.'
Daichi, who was lost in thought, regained his bearings when the Hokage made his presence. He was in his usual attire with the traditional white robes and the Hokage hat on his head. He walked to the front and stood on the makeshift podium.
"Congratulations to all of you who were accepted into the academy. From this day forth, do your best to reach your goals to become a shinobi. You have a lot of hard work ahead of you on this journey. I expect great things and I know you'll do the leaf village proud. May the will of fire burn brightly in each and everyone of you."
Daichi was looking at the Hokage as he welcomed the students and for some reason he felt as if the Hokage was looking at him specifically during the end of his speech. He didn't put much thought into it as the instructors brought everyone to their assigned classroom.
The Hokage watched as the teachers took the children to their assigned classrooms. He was in deep thought as he looked at two particular students.
Hiruzen looked at Naruto who was slowly disappearing among the crowds. 'Minato… Kushina… Your son is slowly growing up. I know you would be proud of him.'
He then turned his attention towards Daichi. He was looking forward to Daichi's growth throughout the coming years. 'His chakra has increased by a wide margin. At least when compared to when I first met him. Show me just how talented you are, young Daichi.'
Hiruzen turned around and was about to leave but then he saw Kensei standing near the other parents. 'Should I go talk to him?' Kensei noticed the Hokage's gaze. A slight frown formed on Kensei's face and he left. Hiruzen let out a sigh and left the academy as well. 'Another time and place I suppose.'
The moment Daichi stepped into the classroom several notifications popped up. He took a seat in the back corner of the class and looked over the blue boxes that popped up.

'Wow. I can use Mana. Is it different from chakra? That's a stupid question. I have no doubt it definitely is. That will come in handy. And the prodigy title will definitely help my speed of improvement.'
Closing the quest completion box Daichi opened his status page. 'Status'.

'Wow. Except wisdom and charisma all my stats are above 30. And my stat points are nearing 100.’
A frown formed on Daichi’s face as he looked at the special stats. ‘I have no idea how to unlock Dignity. But as for Luck I’ve tried gambling with the old timer a couple times but it didn't work. I even flipped a coin trying to predict the outcome… or anything really but… That was a bust…’
‘And as for the other two… I have an idea as to how to awaken Indomitable stat. But it's not a solid theory and doing it would be dangerous so that's out for now. And I have a few theories on how to awaken it but not sure which path to take. ‘
Daichi let out a small tired sigh. He decided he would tackle the locked stat problem at a later date.
‘Time to see how far my skills have improved.'

Daichi looked over his skills and assessed their improvements one by one.
‘My Observe skill hasn't made much progress. Makes sense since I was cooped up in that house most of the time. Need to work on that and raise its level. And Meditation skill is around where I expected it to be.’
‘As for the Basic body conditioning, it's slow but improving steadily. Thanks to the training and stat increase, the damage reduction buff has increased a lot. But my spars with Kensei showed that there are certain limitations. The effects of the damage reduction buff significantly decreases the higher level my opponents are. And attacks and wounds from sharp weapons can bypass the buff by a certain margin. Not sure by how much. So I need to figure that out as well…. Let’s see… What else?’

‘It's been a while since I checked all my skills. Everything's gone up significantly…
‘The one with the highest level is the leaf concentration technique. As expected. I've been practicing that skill every chance I got during the last year. Even during physical training and meditation. Using leaves on my forehead and fingers and even going as far as spinning them in different directions. Right now chakra control is my strongest point.’
‘Let's see. What else...Hmm....So to use mana affinity I need 50 in INT and 30 in WIS huh. I'm not gonna spend points. At least not now. I'll wait until the end of this year. If my stats haven't reached 50 and 30 by that time, then I'll consider adding points to them.’
As Daichi closed the skill list page a new quest box appeared.

'So this is the quest 'path to the strongest'. The first part of this quest looks like a Saitama style workout. It's a bit time consuming to do it everyday but it's doable. And completing at least one dungeon a year. So during my time here in the academy I might need to complete at least 5 or 6 dungeons.’
‘And based on this I need to complete one this year. Gotta search the village for more dungeons. Maybe I'll find an easy one. And taking the top spot in the class… I already planned on that. Still the rewards are generous. 3 stat points weekly for 6 years… that's a whole lot of points.'
Daichi had a small grin on his face as he thought about how strong he'd become. As he kept reading his heart skipped a beat as he looked at the failure part of the quest. Taking a deep breath he calmed down and accepted the quest.
Daichi closed the last of the notification boxes and then started looking around.
Most of the kids were chatting with one other. As he looked around he finally saw the kids who would one day be known as the rookie 9.
He saw Hinata nervously twiddling her fingers and Sakura quietly looking around. Daichi then spotted Kiba but he didn't have his dog Akamaru with him.
'Strange… His partner Akamaru isn't with him.' That's when he remembered something. 'Right! Kiba gets Akamaru during his time in the academy.'
Daichi kept looking around and saw Shikamaru and Choji together at the back and Shino at the front bench of the room. Ino was hanging around with a bunch of other girls and they seemed to be having fun.
Daichi was excited looking around but he didn't show it on his face. And when he looked to the side of the room he finally saw him.
'Naruto Uzumaki. Wow. It's him… It's really him… But he seems so different. He's quiet. So subdued. I expected him to have that stupid grin on his face shouting about becoming number one or trying to prank someone or something but this kid is sitting obediently not making any trouble… Strange… Oh God! Please tell me I'm not in some alternate universe where he has Sasuke's emo attitude.'
Daichi quickly used 'observe' on him.
[LV.6] [Naruto Uzumaki]
Age: 5
HP: 2780. CP: 3803
[Naruto Uzumaki is the son of the late fourth hokage Minato Namikaze and his wife Kushina Uzumaki. He is the current host of the nine tails. His status as a jinchuriki caused him to be shunned by most of the leaf-citizens. He is an orphan who longs for a family. He joined the academy to be a ninja and to make friends. He has a positive and friendly attitude despite his harsh circumstances.]
'Oh Thank God. He's probably just trying to be on his best behavior to make friends… Too bad it won’t help the poor kid. Looking at his stats, his level is below me but his health and chakra are way above mine. Must be because of the nine tails and the Uzumaki lineage.'
Daichi looked around and his eyes found Sasuke sitting near the window.
'Observe'
[LV.10] [Sasuke Uchiha]
Age: 5
HP: 1307 CP: 1189
[Sasuke Uchiha is the son of the Uchiha clan head Fugaku and his wife Mikoto. He is the youngest of two children. He is a happy child eager to please and be worthy of his clan name. He adores his older brother Itachi. He plans on becoming the first in the class to impress his father. Sasuke Uchiha has a vast amount of hidden potential and talent. ]
'So right now I'm stronger than him. Gotta keep it that way. But that's not going to be easy knowing his attitude.'
At that moment the classroom door opened and a large man with brown hair and goatee walked in. He walked to the center of the room and looked at everyone.
‘For a moment I thought it would be Iruka.’ Daichi immediately used 'Observe'
[??][Daikoku Funeno]
???
'Can't see his level or other information. Seems he's above level 59.'
"Hello students. My name is Daikoku Funeno. I'm your homeroom teacher. From now on you are to address me as Daikoku sensei. Welcome to the academy. Now I'm sure that at least some of you may have been taught how to use chakra and some Ninjutsu at home but here at the academy you'll learn how to use chakra and its applications in depth.”
“You'll also learn other basic subjects and train to coordinate and work together as a team. You'll be given individual and group assignments. You'll learn the fundamentals. They're important so learn them well. The jutsus and techniques you will learn at the academy should not be used on others outside of supervised sparring. If any of you are caught breaking the rule you will face severe punishments.”
“And with that we'll begin our first year. Why don't you all introduce yourselves to the class. Each of you will stand when it's your turn and tell us your name and your dreams and hobbies. Let's start from the back."
Daichi realized he was first as his sensei was looking at him. Daichi took a deep breath and let it out. He stood up and spoke.
"Hello everyone. My name is Daichi Hekima. I like training, painting and cooking. My goal is to become the strongest."
Daichi sounded neither arrogant nor silly when he spoke. He was calm and had a serious face. Some of the students had a mocking expression when they heard his goal but didn't say anything.
The teacher just smiled. "Alright. Next." The introduction went on with each student introducing themselves and telling their hobbies and dreams. Daichi listened to all of them and noted the names and faces of everyone in his class.
He paid special attention to the future rookie 9. Sasuke, spurred on by his competitive side, declared he would take the top spot of the class and one day become the head of his clan. Naruto exuberantly introduced himself and declared his goal to become Hokage.
After everyone was done Daikoku spoke. "Now that the introductions are done I'll hand out the curriculum for this year. The text books for the year will be provided in the next class."
Daichi looked over the curriculum that the instructor just handed out. It was composed of reading and writing, mathematics, science, geography, history, chakra theory and physical training. A total of 7 subjects. Even though he learned quite a bit from Kensei's library he was looking forward to what the academy could teach him.
'A Monday to Friday schedule with 5 different subjects taught a day. Hmm. Physical training is on everyday… I see… So they're focusing on chakra theory now and building up physical energy of the body. A stronger body can produce more chakra. And with a better understanding of how to use chakra and jutsu it'll become easier to teach Ninjutsu next year.'
With that the class began. The first class was on reading and writing. Since the batch was made of civilian students and orphans along with clan children it was easier to start with such a simple subject. The teachers could also assess the language and written capabilities of each student and individually help them.
Daichi looked around and had a small smile on his face. 'I might actually enjoy being in school for once.'

'So this is the quest 'path to the strongest'. The first part of this quest looks like a Saitama style workout. It's a bit time consuming to do it everyday but it's doable. And completing at least one dungeon a year. So during my time here in the academy I might need to complete at least 5 or 6 dungeons.’
‘And based on this I need to complete one this year. Gotta search the village for more dungeons. Maybe I'll find an easy one. And taking the top spot in the class… I already planned on that. Still the rewards are generous. 3 stat points weekly for 6 years… that's a whole lot of points.'
Daichi had a small grin on his face as he thought about how strong he'd become. As he kept reading his heart skipped a beat as he looked at the failure part of the quest. Taking a deep breath he calmed down and accepted the quest.
Daichi closed the last of the notification boxes and then started looking around.
Most of the kids were chatting with one other. As he looked around he finally saw the kids who would one day be known as the rookie 9.
He saw Hinata nervously twiddling her fingers and Sakura quietly looking around. Daichi then spotted Kiba but he didn't have his dog Akamaru with him.
'Strange… His partner Akamaru isn't with him.' That's when he remembered something. 'Right! Kiba gets Akamaru during his time in the academy.'
Daichi kept looking around and saw Shikamaru and Choji together at the back and Shino at the front bench of the room. Ino was hanging around with a bunch of other girls and they seemed to be having fun.
Daichi was excited looking around but he didn't show it on his face. And when he looked to the side of the room he finally saw him.
'Naruto Uzumaki. Wow. It's him… It's really him… But he seems so different. He's quiet. So subdued. I expected him to have that stupid grin on his face shouting about becoming number one or trying to prank someone or something but this kid is sitting obediently not making any trouble… Strange… Oh God! Please tell me I'm not in some alternate universe where he has Sasuke's emo attitude.'
Daichi quickly used 'observe' on him.
[LV.6] [Naruto Uzumaki]
Age: 5
HP: 2780. CP: 3803
[Naruto Uzumaki is the son of the late fourth hokage Minato Namikaze and his wife Kushina Uzumaki. He is the current host of the nine tails. His status as a jinchuriki caused him to be shunned by most of the leaf-citizens. He is an orphan who longs for a family. He joined the academy to be a ninja and to make friends. He has a positive and friendly attitude despite his harsh circumstances.]
'Oh Thank God. He's probably just trying to be on his best behavior to make friends… Too bad it won’t help the poor kid. Looking at his stats, his level is below me but his health and chakra are way above mine. Must be because of the nine tails and the Uzumaki lineage.'
Daichi looked around and his eyes found Sasuke sitting near the window.
'Observe'
[LV.10] [Sasuke Uchiha]
Age: 5
HP: 1307 CP: 1189
[Sasuke Uchiha is the son of the Uchiha clan head Fugaku and his wife Mikoto. He is the youngest of two children. He is a happy child eager to please and be worthy of his clan name. He adores his older brother Itachi. He plans on becoming the first in the class to impress his father. Sasuke Uchiha has a vast amount of hidden potential and talent. ]
'So right now I'm stronger than him. Gotta keep it that way. But that's not going to be easy knowing his attitude.'
At that moment the classroom door opened and a large man with brown hair and goatee walked in. He walked to the center of the room and looked at everyone.
‘For a moment I thought it would be Iruka.’ Daichi immediately used 'Observe'
[??][Daikoku Funeno]
???
'Can't see his level or other information. Seems he's above level 59.'
"Hello students. My name is Daikoku Funeno. I'm your homeroom teacher. From now on you are to address me as Daikoku sensei. Welcome to the academy. Now I'm sure that at least some of you may have been taught how to use chakra and some Ninjutsu at home but here at the academy you'll learn how to use chakra and its applications in depth.”
“You'll also learn other basic subjects and train to coordinate and work together as a team. You'll be given individual and group assignments. You'll learn the fundamentals. They're important so learn them well. The jutsus and techniques you will learn at the academy should not be used on others outside of supervised sparring. If any of you are caught breaking the rule you will face severe punishments.”
“And with that we'll begin our first year. Why don't you all introduce yourselves to the class. Each of you will stand when it's your turn and tell us your name and your dreams and hobbies. Let's start from the back."
Daichi realized he was first as his sensei was looking at him. Daichi took a deep breath and let it out. He stood up and spoke.
"Hello everyone. My name is Daichi Hekima. I like training, painting and cooking. My goal is to become the strongest."
Daichi sounded neither arrogant nor silly when he spoke. He was calm and had a serious face. Some of the students had a mocking expression when they heard his goal but didn't say anything.
The teacher just smiled. "Alright. Next." The introduction went on with each student introducing themselves and telling their hobbies and dreams. Daichi listened to all of them and noted the names and faces of everyone in his class.
He paid special attention to the future rookie 9. Sasuke, spurred on by his competitive side, declared he would take the top spot of the class and one day become the head of his clan. Naruto exuberantly introduced himself and declared his goal to become Hokage.
After everyone was done Daikoku spoke. "Now that the introductions are done I'll hand out the curriculum for this year. The text books for the year will be provided in the next class."
Daichi looked over the curriculum that the instructor just handed out. It was composed of reading and writing, mathematics, science, geography, history, chakra theory and physical training. A total of 7 subjects. Even though he learned quite a bit from Kensei's library he was looking forward to what the academy could teach him.
'A Monday to Friday schedule with 5 different subjects taught a day. Hmm. Physical training is on everyday… I see… So they're focusing on chakra theory now and building up physical energy of the body. A stronger body can produce more chakra. And with a better understanding of how to use chakra and jutsu it'll become easier to teach Ninjutsu next year.'
With that the class began. The first class was on reading and writing. Since the batch was made of civilian students and orphans along with clan children it was easier to start with such a simple subject. The teachers could also assess the language and written capabilities of each student and individually help them.
Daichi looked around and had a small smile on his face. 'I might actually enjoy being in school for once.'
