I took the water cans and returned them to the orphanage.
I couldn't waste any more time, as grandma Noa is a bit of an angry and explosive character. As I slowly approached the door, I swear I felt chills all over my body, and with a few breaths I entered the orphanage.
"It took you 3 hours to get back home, I hope you're not causing any trouble to the surrounding area? Noa said to me with a serious face.
"Of course not, how little faith you have in my grandmother Noa". I declared as I pretended to be hurt by her words.
"I hope so and if I find out that you pulled a prank one more time, I will cancel your permission to go to the academy, I'm clear Genji!". He said with a serious face staring at my face.
"Yes, Grandma Noa."
"Ok, run and change your clothes,' dinner is ready."
"Ok." I headed to my little room, changed my dirty clothes from the day, and with the little water there I started to wash the clothes I wore.
Well, I am an orphan and only have two changes of clothes, after washing my clothes and hanging them out I headed to the dining room where we ate together.
After eating, I went to sleep, or so I made grandma Noa believe.
- Card system -.
[Zzzzzz, much vs-come back in 5 more minutes, will you]. Sacred spoke, comfortably asleep in her bed.
- This useless goddess, I only forgive you for being cute -. I said in my mind while poking her little cheek with my finger.
[ENOUGH, let me sleep.]
- But I need your help to start the system, besides you went on vacation for 1 month, don't be lazy -.
[But you don't need my help to use it, I just monitor it for possible errors].
- Ok, then go to sleep -. I thought and started to look closely at the table, I feel excited.
My mind may be 100 years old and my body 8 years old, but anyone gets excited to watch their favorite anime and even more if you have a system supporting you.
Snapping out of my delusions, I place my finger on the message that appeared in front of me.
[Congratulations on your reincarnation, you have 8 yearly envelopes, do you wish to open them].
- Yes, what do the annual envelopes contain? -.
[The annual envelopes: They are gifts that help the user to improve, where they contain mysterious things for the user, and they are given every 360 days...
Estimated time of 269 days for a new envelope].
[Congratulations, the user has obtained:
+800 Chibi Coins; Use in the purchase of cards.
+2 Increase Fragments; Fragments are used to improve the chance on skill cards (Common 35%, Rare 30%, Legendary 25%, and Celestial 10%).
+3 Discount Tickets; Reduces the cost of cards by 20%.
+2 small achievement upgrade tickets; You get more experience for 7 days.
+1 medium achievement upgrade ticket; You get more experience for 30 days.
+1 high achievement upgrade ticket; You get more experience for 6 months.
+2 free purchases in clothing for the user.
+2 Ornaments for your random board; Change the color or style of the table.
+1 random tool.
Does the user want to use any item? (Yes/No)]".
I denied the use of some items.
First, I had to start thinking carefully about my future.
After some time I decided to first use the small upgrade ticket, increase fragments, discount ticket, and start the purchase of cards.
At the moment of starting, 5 cards appeared on the table above the slots that were previously soft colored.
[4 achievements completed]. The system warned me, but I had more interest in the cards.
[5 five skill cards available on the board:
¬ Common 50 coins: kunai thrower, for each throw the next kunai will have a small improvement in speed, accuracy, and damage. The improvement accumulates up to 10 kunais.
¬ Common 50 coins: Electric fingers, you concentrate chakra in a finger or several fingers and get the ability to numb your opponents for a short period, the fewer fingers used, the higher voltage is produced.
¬ Rare 100 coins: Corrode bone, attracts calcium from food or bones and adds a small amount of chakra, hardness in the bones and improves metabolism.
¬ Legend 200 coins: Telekinesis, creates a gravitational field around the user, which reduces or increases the mass of objects depending on the user, can also attract or repel objects within a range of 15 meters.
¬ Celestial 500 coins: Depot, can store things with a weight of 10 tons, cannot store living things].
When I understood the description of each card I got excited, I was expecting something regularly, but with the increased probability it was completely a fluke.
- How much would it cost to buy everything? -. I ask excitedly, I have 800 coins and a 20% discount, but buying everything will leave me with few coins and I don't know how to earn more.
[For all the letters it would be 720 coins, do you want to buy them (Yes/No)].
- Yes! I answered in my mind, I might have spent most of my coins, but it is an investment for my future and I felt satisfied with the purchase.
From the 5 letters, I chose the common kunais card, after all, tomorrow my first day of school will start, and it might make the classes easier.
I transferred the card to the board and the moment I touched it, the card started to merge on the board.
"[You have 5 outstanding achievements]."
I listened to the message and checked my achievements, I was surprised by the fact that it gave me not only experience, it also gave me coins which I gladly accepted, they were few, but it's better than nothing.
[Congratulations, the user went up to level 3].
With the message, I got very excited, and I moved two more cards to the board, the card corrode bone and telekinesis.
With everything ready, I closed the system and went to sleep.
...

I woke up early, the mere fact of going to study at the ninja academy was so stimulating for my mind, that I didn't sleep well because of the excitement.
After a quick stretch and yawning a few times, I headed to the kitchen, where grandma Noa prepared our breakfast.
The morning went on as usual, with the only fact that they were too early for me, as I was a lover of naps.
"Genji I want to give you something, but first get your things to go, and I'll wait for you outside." Grandma Noa said to me.
I got up and walked to my room for my things.
Already, I headed outside the orphanage and waited for Grandma Noa to come out too.
After a while, she came back with a backpack and several things. When she finished putting everything in, she looked me in the eyes, and with a gentle tone, she spoke to me.
"Genji in your backpack I placed things that helped me in my time as a medical ninja, they may not be of much help, but I hope you try hard in what you want to be. When you were sent to the orphanage, many people wondered how you got to the village, because no one had any information about your mother no matter how hard they searched the records."
"Did my mother leave anything behind when they found me?" I asked as I felt a lot of interest in my mother, after all my Mom had the will of a dragon it was obvious that she was not a normal person.
"When they found you, your mom left a scroll with your name on it, and that she would appreciate being taken care of was the only thing she left. Well, leaving aside the subject, I want you to know that you will possibly be accommodated in a new place, and you will have a new guardian who will take care of you, or so I hope."
When she finished talking, she started to take a key out of her bag with some sheets of paper that she handed me and a small letter.
"You know after you enter the academy, I thought about going back to my birthplace to spend more time with my nephews, and we may not see each other in the village anymore, but in these documents is my address if you decide to visit me and promise me that you will open the letter when you are 12 years old and recognized as an adult. Also, don't tell anyone about the contents of these documents."
He told me and shortly after he finished he gave me a hug which I also responded for his care.
With a long goodbye, I headed straight to the ninja academy.
I have to say it took me almost two hours to get there, damn, that was too long. That's why I understood why Grandma Noa insisted that I get up early.
After a long walk, my ears heard a piece of news that left me shocked.
I always wondered in which timeline I would appear, and apparently, the massacre of the Uchiha clan had just happened.
I felt a little sad that I couldn't be born before the massacre happened and be able to save my favorite characters.
I entered the academy and handed my papers to the guard at the door, who quickly checked them and showed me the direction to the square, where I would wait for the third Hokage to start a motivational speech.
A few minutes passed and Hiruzen appeared in the square giving a speech.
I got bored and concentrated on checking the system with the 2D model.
I had one thing to do before the academy started.
-System I want new cards.
[It will cost 100 coins, the user wants to continue... (Yes/No)].
I accepted while waiting for my new cards. The third Hokage finished his boring speech.
When he was about to start checking the cards, the Hokage thanked everyone for their time and applause started to ring out all over the place.
-What a pity.
I thought to myself, with no other choice, I closed the system and concentrated on the people who began to name various children.
As for me, I was placed in a classroom a little withdrawn, well it was to be expected of an orphan who enters the academy two years late.
...
..
.
At the end of the class, I was given an address and key to where I would be staying.
I put the few things I had of clothes, and finally, I could eat the instant ramen that Naruto loved in the series, it was nothing out of this world was simply a Maruchan of my world, after eating I went to the small bed I had, since the room was very small and only had 5 x 4 meters with everything included.
Well, it's not like I'm complaining, as long as I have a place to sleep, cook and bathe, it's enough for me.
Eventually, I fell asleep comfortably in my little bed.
The next day I was already starting to miss Grandma Noa, I could only eat instant ramen for breakfast.
- Fuck life, I want a good breakfast.
I got ready for school and set off for the ninja academy.
I entered the classroom and sat down to learn something new.
..
.
Time Jumping.
The class was normal for four years.
We were taught subjects related to nature, social sciences, writing and literature, damn math, philosophy, history, geography, basic human anatomy, jutsu and seal theory, physical education, or training.
The curriculum they use is much different from in my world and which I loved for example; Each day is focused mainly on a specific subject, for me Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. They were my favorite days and yes, there are classes on Saturdays.
Tuesdays of subjects related to wildlife and animals that exist all over the world or that existed and are now extinct.
Wednesday basic human anatomy, hand seals in chakra application, and learning basic genjutsu reading.
Friday and Saturday party ha ha ha ha ha, I wish it were possible, but I need to be an adult.
Friday is physical training focused on taijutsu and shuriken throwing and finally, Saturday is 1 vs 1 or group battles and individual ninjutsu practice.
I'm not complaining about new life.
It was entertaining to watch my sensei motivated by my improvements, my class excelled in several aspects, but what is fighting, not so much.
Apart from me, not all were acts to be ninjas and many were recommended by my sensei for another field of work, well you can't expect much from most of them who are children of civilian homes without the support of a clan or orphans like me.
The last month that we had left to finish the academy, sensei handed out some sheets to all of us, apparently, he already knew that this class wasn't an act to be ninjas, and they were more practical in other areas.
As for me, he told me that I had the potential to be an apprentice in laboratories, in branches of commerce, trainer, and caretaker of messenger hawks.
Sensei wanted me to focus on other things and always told me that I had the potential for something other than being a ninja, as he thought I would be affected by the low amount of chakra I had.
Of course, he didn't know that little by little my chakra was improving, but in the end, he gave in and allowed me to participate in the ninja test.
Some people made fun of me for the fact that I have a funny nickname like the broken one, the crippled one, the one with the glazed hands, and others that I don't even know, ha, ha, ha, ha I even died laughing when I found out, well that happened to me for being an asshole.
In the first class of manual stamps, I got overzealous and ended up dislocating my fingers.
What can I say, I went into eighth-grade syndrome mode and the worst thing was that I tried to imitate Kakashi, a bad idea, since it was not only once that I hurt myself, I continued doing the same thing and in the end, I visited the hospital many times.
Sure, I find the nickname funny, but that doesn't mean I'll forgive the bastard who gave me those nicknames.

Meanwhile, in another class.
*ACHUUU!* A loud sneeze was heard inside a classroom.
"I think I caught a cold, from cleaning the statues late." He said as a small booger hung from his nose.
