A Naruto Fan-Fic

"Here is your Forehead Protector." The Hokage handed Ken his headband that determines his rank as a Genin. "Go to room 315, you will be forming your team there." He added.

"Yes, sir!" Ken bowed to the elder and went out to find this year's graduating class.

...

"Now, everyone, quiet down!" The teacher in charge of the class shouted and the rowdy students shut up.

Everyone looked to be about 12 to 13 years old and they all wore their forehead protectors. That's right, this is this year's graduating class.

"Let me introduce a new graduate! You can come in, Ken!"

Open. Tak! Close. Tak!

Handsome Ken went up on the teacher's platform and cooly introduced himself.

"My name is Uchiha Ken, I'll be in your care!"

The new grads stayed silent. They knew who Ken was, especially the rumors and fights he got in the past months he was in the academy. The incident with the trio, Ginzo, Leo, and Mitsu was especially famous!

"Huh, isn't he just a kid?!" A mob looking guy said loudly.

"Shh! That is Uchiha Ken! The one who beat up Ginzo, Mitsu, and Leo!" His female seatmate instantly covered his mouth.

"What? That's him?! But he does not look strong at all? I don't believe it!" The mob guy rebuked.

"Just shut up!" His female made a threatening fist and the mob looking guy shut up immediately.

"Ahem! Today marks the day you will finally start as genins. So, we will be forming the 4 man squad! Each squad will be formed by 3 Genins, and the leader will be a Jounin. Listen carefully!" the teacher shouted.

"Team 1!" The teacher stated three names in succession. Since this year's graduating class has 21 boys and 21 girls, the teams would be divided perfectly into 11 teams, 2 boys and 1 girl, except for 1 team.

"Team 2! Tako Kuroki, Gei Susae, Aku Wa!"

"Team 3! Tenma Ichinote, Izumi Gin, Hebi Saru!"

"Team 4! Hyuuga Hirikaya...!"

...

"And lastly, Team 11! Hazaki Hanako, Uchiha Ken, and Hoki Zaku! Now that you have your team formed, you can now go and group yourself! I will introduce your Team Leader in the afternoon! Until then, the class is dismissed!" With that, the teacher left the room.

The moment the teacher left, all eyes stared at Ken. Envy could be seen in their eyes.

'How could he have two of the best as his teammates?!' was all they thought! In the end, they found their own teammates and also left one after another. Now, only three people remained in the room.

"Finally, it's only us remaining! Since we are already a team, we have to get to know each other. I and Hanako-chan already know each other, but we don't know anything about you yet, Uchiha Ken! I am Hoki Kazu, and I am 12 years old, I will be in your care."

Hoki Kazu is a very good looking guy. He had long hair, tied in a ponytail. His build looked was just like Shisui and he looked like a girl from his back. He wore his forehead protector around his neck. And Ken could see that there was a scar that ran down from Kazu's chin down to his c.h.e.s.t.

"Yes, I am Hazaki Hanako, 11 years old, you can call me Hinako, just like everyone else. I'll be in your care." Although Hanako could not be called beautiful by appearance standards, she is still good looking. She had jet black hair that flowed naturally down her back. Her eyes were green and her forehead was covered with the forehead protector.

"I am Uchiha Ken, 6 years old, you can also just call me Ken." Ken also formally introduced himself.

"Huh? Six years old?" Both Hanako and Kazu were shocked.

"Ah, yes! I just graduated after a year in the academy." Ken was already used to this kind of reaction. Hell, even his parents could not help but be shocked at his growth.

"Wow, I thought that Uchiha Itachi would be the youngest that would graduate under ten years old. To think that another one from your clan would do so? Uchiha's are really amazing!" Kazu exclaimed in praise.

"That's right, but I heard from my elder brother that it is not actually Uchiha Itachi who is the youngest to graduate, it is actually a guy named Hatake Kakashi! He became a Genin at the age of 5! I heard that he is already an ANBU now. He is my idol!" Hanako rebutted. "However, you are still pretty amazing! That is probably the difference between geniuses and us." She added.

"Hatake Kakashi? I never heard of him. I only know Uchiha Itachi because our teacher often uses him as an example of motivation! I heard he was powerful back then, no one could bully him! Say, Ken, how are you connected with Itachi?" Kazu asked.

"Well, he is my older brother."

"What?!"

"..."

"Forget about that! Since we're a team now, we should get to know each other! We should say our likes, dislikes or dreams! For me I like to sleep, I don't like studying but I like training! And... My dream is to become the strongest kunoichi!" Hanako declared.

Ken could tell that she has an outgoing personality and a bit of a tomboyish side.

"Well, for me, I like singing. I would like to spread the beauty and importance of music. Unfortunately, this world does not allow me to achieve my dream. However, I also want to become strong and one day is able to lead the village, no, the world into world peace, where war will finally stop." Kazu looked a little regretful as he talked.

Ken could see that Kazu is a genuine guy. He could see the shadow of Shisui from the man.

"Your thoughts are admirable, Kazu-kun. I too dream to become powerful. Just like Hanako, I also love to train. I train almost every day!" said Ken with a smile. "I may be young, but you can treat me like how you treat your classmates before."

"Hehe, don't worry! Although you are just six years old, you don't look like one at all. You also don't talk like six years old. You are awfully m.a.t.u.r.e for your age. I get the feeling that... I don't know... I feel creeped out!" Kazu pretended to shiver, however, there was a slight smile on his face.

"Yeah, it is kinda creepy!" Hanako also agreed.

"Ahaha, is that so?" Scratching his head, Ken was speechless. What can he do? After all, it was kinda tiring to pretend like a little boy!

"It's true. But don't worry, we will also feel reassured that you are like that." Hanako said.

"Thanks!" Ken smiled. He really liked these types of people. They are straightforward and easy to talk to.

"Well, it won't do this way, we have to go and eat, its already lunchtime. We might be put to test by our Team Leader this afternoon." Kazu said and led the team.

'This guy, he has the quality of a good leader. Quite strong. He is a good seed.' Ken thought and followed. He knew that his status as a 28 years old assassination machine in his previous life was null in this world.

Ken had already embraced the fact that he is already a mere child, and he should act like one. Being high profiled would only bring him more trouble.

Along the way, the three conversed comfortably with each other.

Ken found out that Kazu is actually the top one in class in terms of academics and the top 3 in the physical aspects. While Hanako is the top one in the physical aspect and 28th in academics. That's right, Hanako does not really like studying.

Ken also told them something about himself. And a bond is slowly being formed between the three.

As time passes and they spend more time together, it won't be long before this bond deepens.

...

Meanwhile, in the Hokage's office, a man with spiky black hair wearing the standard attire of a Jounin stood in front of the Hokage's table while reading the profile of some students.

Unlike most people, this man's pupils are colored gray. He looked blind, but actually no. This man is a member of the Hyuuga Clan. A clan that is similar to that of the Uchiha.

Famous with Eye Bloodline of their own, Byakugan, the all-seeing eyes.

"So, how about it, Kyo? They are this year's best teams. Believe me, you might not be able to come across another one like this!" Hiruzen said.

"Indeed, they are a lot stronger than last year's. They look promising, please let me mentor them, Lord Hokage!" The man called Kyo bowed.

"Then it is settled. Hyuuga Kyo, you shall be the Team 11's Team Leader!"

Stamp!
