The Ninja Academy in Konoha Year 60

In the 56th year of Leaf Village's history, with him as the recommender, Haku officially entered the Konoha Ninja Academy and became a student.

This means that Haku has become a true member of the Leaf Village clan.

Uzumaki Clan Karin was also admitted to school in the same year as Shiro.

The Konoha Ninja Academy today is not what it was when it was first established, or even during the Third's era. Every ninja clan sends their children here without exception.

In Leaf Village today, the only difference between children from ninja clans and non-ninja clans is the quality of their extra tutoring at home.

Because of the reforms implemented during the Third's era, the Ninja Academy now has a truly sound training system. After visiting the Ninja Academy, it's pretty clear what kind of career you're suited for.

This also helps the ninja clan save on the costs of training and selecting personnel.

It would also benefit the Hokage Building, as it would both promote the Will of Fire and allow for the centralized archiving of the village's ninjas.

Compared to a few years ago, the composition of the ninja clans in Leaf Village today has undergone new changes.

The Shimura Clan was officially disbanded, but the Uzumaki Clan was rebuilt, and unsurprisingly, the clan leader was Uzumaki Kushina.

The nine major ninja clans now comprise three factions.

The newly formed Uzumaki Clan followed the Fourth Hokage, becoming the new generation of Hokage.

The alliance of the four clans of the Sarutobi Clan, Nara Clan, Yamanaka Clan, and Akimichi Clan remains intact, but the power of decision-making has shifted to the Nara Clan.

The Uchiha Clan, Hyuga Clan, Inuzuka Clan, and Aburame Clans, while affiliated with the Police Force system, also form their own distinct factions.

In the 56th year of Leaf Village, something that seemed ordinary to others happened, but it touched Uchiha Shingen.

On the same day that Hyuga Hanabi was born, Hyuga Ziji passed away.

According to the Hyuga Clan, Hyuga Ziji Jonin in numerous battles as Hyuga Clan during the First and Second Shinobi World War, accumulating many hidden injuries that severely impacted her health.

For a ninja, she wasn't very old when she died, but she wasn't exactly dying young either.

Many ninjas died young due to internal injuries, and many Ninjutsu techniques were classified as forbidden because of this.

For Uchiha Shingen, in this world, there were truly no people he had a close relationship with during his first playthrough.

During his first playthrough, he became accustomed to life and death.

In the second playthrough, I know you, but you don't know me.

He had no intention of rekindling their past relationship; Senju Muzoku was dead, and he was now Uchiha Shingen.

At the beginning of this cycle, many of his former friends or subordinates were still alive, but they all passed away around the time he turned ten in this cycle. Most of them did not have the chance to live to see the Second Shinobi World War break out.

Birth, aging, illness, and death are natural laws that cannot be avoided.

That evening, he found a tavern, ordered a pot of wine, lit a cigarette, raised a toast to the Hokage Rock outside the window, and drank it himself, repeating this many times.

Saying goodbye to all my old friends.

Everything is in the wine.

I also Dango; it's a real shame that everyone has different stances this time around.

Smoke curled upwards, the scent of tobacco filling the air. A multitude of images flashed through my mind, distant yet blurry, as if the floodgates of memory had been opened, leaping from the depths of my mind, roaring in—some majestic and awe-inspiring, others menacing and menacing—but ultimately fading into oblivion.

That night, Uchiha Shingen didn't go anywhere. He went home alone, took a quiet bath, and went to sleep.

The next day, we got up and continued on our way.

Interestingly, neither Pakura nor Sakurako noticed anything unusual about him. Of everyone, only Uchiha Tekka insisted that he was in a bad mood and dragged him out for drinks that night.

And it was the same tavern we'd visited the night before.

At the dinner table, faced with Uchiha Tekka's relentless questioning, Uchiha Shingen could only say that he was grateful for the hard-won peace and was thinking of his comrades who had died on the battlefield.

As a result, after a drinking session, Uchiha Shingen was completely unharmed, while Uchiha Tekka got completely drunk.

Because this man, who is usually carefree and considered a simpleton by his tribe, suddenly became much more alcohol-tolerant after talking about this topic, he drank more and more heavily until he finally collapsed.

Uchiha Shingen had no choice but to pay the bill and carry the guy home on his back.

Uchiha Tekka's father was also a ninja, and a senior Jonin in the clan. This middle-aged man was very grateful to Uchiha Shingen and warmly invited him to stay for a few cups of hot tea. He chatted with him for a while, and his words implied that he hoped Uchiha Shingen would take good care of Uchiha Tekka in the future.

The uncle always felt that his son would inexplicably get a beating in the future.

After all, he sometimes felt inexplicably like to beat up his eldest son.

Getting beaten up is fine, just don't die.

It was almost eleven o'clock when Uchiha Shingen came out of Uchiha Tekka's house.

He's quite the talker; no wonder he's Tekka's father.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Shingen couldn't help but give a wry smile.

Last time, I fought the Uchiha Clan to the death for most of my life, but this time I'm racking my brains for the Uchiha Clan. And then there's my honest and straightforward friend Uchiha Tekka. Life is truly unpredictable.

He is twenty-three years old this year.

Next year, Uchiha Sasuke and Naruto Uzumaki will also be going to school.

In six years, these two little ones will graduate.

However, it is believed that in this timeline, there will be no more incidents of sealed scrolls being "stolen".

However, Uchiha Shingen believed that some things would still happen.

Seven years to go.

Volume 8

Chapter 1: The Ninja Academy in Leaf Village for Sixty Years

Sixty years in Leaf Village.

That year, the Ninja World remained peaceful.

It has been six years since Leaf Village and Cloud Village officially ended their state of war in the 54th year of Konoha's Leaf Village, and there has been no further military conflict between the five great ninja villages.

The Five Great Nations have been developing their production in a peaceful atmosphere, and the wounds of war since the Third Shinobi World War have been completely healed in the past few years.

In the 59th year of Leaf Village, the Kumogakure, which had been suffering from debt, finally paid off all its debts after a two-year delay. Although it had been severely weakened, the village had finally emerged from the crisis and, in less than a year, it showed great vitality.

Even though small countries are battlegrounds for large countries, conflicts between powerful ninjas are inevitable from time to time. However, since the countries themselves are no longer directly involved in the war, they can still get a share of the profits by leveraging the trade network of the three countries centered around the Land of Fire.

If viewed from a more tolerant perspective, the world is in a state of prosperity.

As society prospers, the ninjas' business becomes very busy.

However, all of this has nothing to do with the students studying at the Ninja Academy.

On this bright, sunny day, a group of the Ninja Academy students who had entered the internship phase were gathered together, making a ruckus.

"Yay! Let's fight! Let's fight!"

"I wonder who will win today, I can't wait!"

Two children are fighting in a circle formed by the crowd.

No, that's not a serious way to put it; they're just having a friendly competition.

Two children, one with blond hair and the Uzumaki Clan crest tattooed on his back.

The other one is black, and it has the Sarutobi Clan's family crest tattooed on it.

In the crowd, a black-haired boy was watching this scene with a smug expression.

"Sasuke, who do you think will win?" a classmate asked.

"That goes without saying." Uchiha Sasuke tossed his hair in a flamboyant manner. "As a formidable rival to me, Uchiha Sasuke Naruto, even though he's an idiot, he can't be defeated by anyone."

"Sasuke..." The classmate looked completely stunned. "An idiot rival? Isn't that an idiot too? Why are you insulting yourself?"

"Nonsense!" Uchiha Sasuke, raising his small fist. "Am I not powerful enough?"

"You're impressive, but you'd be even better if you were more normal."

"Tch! You have no appreciation skills at all. This is Shingen- ge's unique style, and only I have mastered it."

"Impossible! My father said Shingen was a kind and approachable great ninja, how could he be as despicable as you?"

"Fine! You want to fight, huh?" Uchiha Sasuke furious. He wouldn't allow anyone to question his taste. "Let's go! Let's play a game!"

His classmate rolled his eyes at him, not wanting to talk to him anymore. He turned to look at the arena and, like everyone else, began cheering for the player he supported.

Uchiha Sasuke pouted. Although he was annoyed, he couldn't just pick a fight with his classmate, could he?

He looked back at the field.

At this point, after the initial testing of each other, the two contestants were ready to get serious.

Naruto Uzumaki drew his unsharpened Kunai.

Opposite him, the boy with black, spiky hair pulled out an iron rod from his back.

The biggest similarity between him and Naruto Uzumaki is that they are both full of energy.

"Naruto, we have a deal. Whoever wins is the boss."

"Alright," Naruto Uzumaki said, looking quite serious. "Konohamaru, you can't renege this time."

"Hmph! No way... And also! You're not allowed to tell on me to Senior Bai and Senior Karin."

"How could I, Naruto Uzumaki, do something so shameful?" Naruto Uzumaki said.

He glanced at the crowd out of the corner of his eye.

Is Konohamaru Sarutobi an idiot? With so many people around, does he even need to report this?

"Alright! Here I come!" Konohamaru was overjoyed and swung his iron rod.

He was preparing to refine Chakra.

As a member of the "private tutoring" group, he was trained by the Third Sarutobi Sasuke, from a young age. As a Ninja Academy student, he had already surpassed most of his classmates in the refinement and control of Chakra.

Apart from two people.

Naruto Uzumaki and Uchiha Sasuke.

Like him, these two were not only skilled in refining and controlling Chakra, but also adept at using Ninjutsu.

Therefore, he regarded him as a formidable rival.

Unfortunately, he didn't win a single game during his four years at school.

The main problem is that Naruto Uzumaki is too despicable!

Ugh! My butt hurts so much from that yesterday!

However, he has already learned Earth Release techniques from his true rival, and he will definitely give Naruto a powerful blow today.

With a smug look on his face, Konohamaru finished refining his Chakra and was about to unleash Ninjutsu.

A huge shoe sole appeared before my eyes.

He instinctively held the iron rod horizontally in front of him, just in time to catch the kick.

With a heavy, muffled thud, a powerful force came from the iron rod.

The iron rod was sturdy, but the incident happened so suddenly that Konohamaru's hands didn't have time to gather Chakra. Unsurprisingly, the iron rod was kicked away by the force of the impact.

He then plopped down on the ground.

The students who had been cheering and jeering were all stunned, except for Uchiha Sasuke, who had known all along that this would happen.

"You lost!" Naruto Uzumaki grinned and brandished Kunai at Konohamaru's neck. "Come on, call me boss. I promised I wouldn't cheat."

The students from several powerful ninja clans stared wide-eyed.

"Sasuke, Naruto didn't use the Body Flicker Technique, did he?"

Nara Shikamaru asked Uchiha Sasuke beside him.

Although he was shocked just now, his pursuit of dead fish eyes has brought him back to his original temperament.

"Hmph, so-so."

"You learned it too?"

"It's alright, my brother taught me yesterday."
