"A shrunken body, dilapidated walls, and furniture..."
Opening his eyes, Vega, as if waking from a nightmare, lay on the bed, incredulously examining his childlike body and everything around him, murmuring as he took stock.
This was a Japanese-style house, a very old-fashioned one.
Vega was certain that this style of house had long disappeared even in twenty-first-century Japan.
"Where am I?"
Vega wanted to turn over and sit up, but he didn't expect a loud bang in his head. The intense pain caused his brain to shut down instantly, and he fell into a coma.
The morning sun shone down, and Vega slowly opened his eyes. His lips were dry, and his pale, sallow face revealed an indescribable emotion.
As an ordinary person, Vega never expected that he would be reborn through possession, and that he would come to the world of Naruto.
Vega's previous life was in the age of technological information, and he was an ordinary person whose leisure activities were playing games and watching anime.
He never thought that he would have such a bizarre experience after accidentally getting electrocuted while playing a game.
Slowly raising his small hand, Vega noticed that his arm was practically skin and bones. The entire arm seemed to be just bones covered with a layer of yellowed skin, and the clothes on his body were also washed white.
Even refugees were better off than this.
A layer of fine sweat broke out on Vega's forehead. According to the memories of the original owner of this body, he was also called Vega, full name Vega Koshima.
He was a six-year-old child from the Land of Fire, Konoha Village.
He had a father who he never met, who died in the Second Great Ninja War, and his mother also passed away from illness three months ago.
Now his identity was that of an orphan.
Struggling to sit up, Vega felt only one thing: pain.
His arms, chest, and muscles all ached.
Slowly struggling to stand up, Vega walked slowly to the refrigerator in the house. The large refrigerator was now empty, with only some leftover instant noodles and wild vegetables.
The instant noodles were leftovers from last night, and the wild vegetables had been dug up several days ago and looked wilted.
After washing the pot, boiling water, and cooking the instant noodles and washed wild vegetables together, Vega, who had finally filled his stomach, opened the door and walked out of the house. The bright sunlight shone on him, feeling particularly comfortable.
Vega turned his head and looked at the surrounding environment. There was no one walking on the clean streets at this time.
"Vega, are you feeling better?"
At this time, Vega's next-door neighbor, Aunt Suzuran, happened to be going out. When she saw Vega standing at the door, she asked with concern.
In Vega's memory, Aunt Suzuran had taken good care of him in the past few months, so he replied, "Yes, I'm almost better."
"Is Aunt Suzuran about to go out?"
Aunt Suzuran's face showed a slight smile, and she said, "Yes, I'm out of vegetables at home, so I'm going to the market to buy some."
"I won't talk to you anymore, I have to hurry, or they won't be fresh later."
Watching Aunt Suzuran leave, Vega, who had been standing outside the door for a while, felt his body trembling slightly. His Blood Essence was weak, and there were even signs of exhaustion.
So Vega didn't dare to wander around casually anymore. He walked into the house, but looking at the bare walls, Vega couldn't feel happy.
The Koshima house was divided into two floors. The first floor was the living room, kitchen, and utility room, and the second floor was two rooms, one was the room he lived in now, and the other was the room where the body's deceased mother had lived.
Returning to the second floor, Vega looked at the closed door opposite, recalling the dying words of the gentle woman in his memory, and thought secretly in his heart.
"Ninja Academy?"
"I will go."
Lying back on the bed, Vega silently planned how he should live in the future, and at the same time, a trace of memories of his previous life appeared in his eyes, and his thoughts were emptied in an instant.
When he woke up again, it was already noon. His hungry stomach made Vega get up quickly.
"I'm now occupying the magpie's nest. The most important thing now is to fill my stomach, and then I have the energy to do other things."
After saying that, Vega stood up, looked at the warm sunlight outside, and took a deep breath: "With my current situation, there are many things I can't do, but there is a river flowing to the village in the forest south of the village, I can still fish and catch turtles."
Just as he was thinking, Aunt Suzuran's voice came from outside the door: "Vega, are you home?"
Hearing Aunt Suzuran's shout, Vega immediately replied, "Aunt Suzuran, I'm home, please wait a moment."
After a while, Vega opened the door and walked out, looking at Aunt Suzuran holding a food box in front of him, and asked, "Aunt Suzuran, do you need something from me?"
Aunt Suzuran pushed the food box in her hand towards Vega and said, "Haven't eaten yet?"
"This is lunch I made for you, take it and eat it!"
Looking at the stunned Vega, Aunt Suzuran urged, "Silly child, take it quickly, Auntie has something to do at home."
After Vega reached out and took it, he thanked him, "Thank you, Auntie."
"It's okay, I'll come back for the food box later, Auntie is leaving first."
After saying that, Aunt Suzuran turned around and left in a hurry, returning to the house next door.
Vega took the food box into the house and opened it, and immediately his index finger moved greatly. After eating half of it with satisfaction, he put the remaining half in the refrigerator.
Now, the tight life makes Vega can't afford any waste.
Looking at the gradually setting sun through the window, a smile appeared on Vega's face.
The plan to survive was already well-thought-out.
Time flew by, and more than a month had passed. Vega had also adapted to his new life after transmigrating.
It was almost dinner time, and Vega was walking home with two fishing rods on his shoulder and three or five fish in his hand.
In this month, because Vega had learned to fish for a living, his small body, which had been malnourished, had also started to gain weight, no longer in the miserable state it was before.
Just as Vega was about to go to sleep after dinner, an uninvited guest suddenly appeared in front of him, giving him a big scare.
Regaining his senses, Vega patted his chest and looked at the person outside the window wearing a monkey mask and a tight-fitting suit. Just as he was about to ask who he was, the person spoke first, "Vega Koshima, I am under the orders of the Third Hokage to inform you that in three days, you are to go to the Ninja Academy to participate in the entrance test."
"That is all."
"Are you clear?"
After the initial shock, Vega had already guessed that this person should be an Anbu Ninja from the village. After hearing this, he immediately responded carefully, "Understood."
As soon as he finished speaking, in just the blink of an eye, the Anbu Ninja disappeared outside the window, as if he had never appeared at all.
