One year had passed since the Uchiha massacre, a year marked by significant progress. My sensory skills, while using the Sharingan, had elevated me to a competent sensory-type ninja. My chakra reserves, once at high-Chunin level, had flourished, reaching the lower tiers of Jounin potential. I wielded Fire Style with unparalleled mastery, while achieving a respectable grasp of the other four elemental transformations. My crow summoning jutsu was fully operational, although I hadn't delved deeper into its advanced applications like crow clone (which will take less chakra in comparison to shadow clone). Finally, I had unlocked the Body Flicker Jutsu, and now set my sights on mastering cousin Shisui's refined version.
My physical and spiritual training mirrored this growth. My shurikenjutsu accuracy had become exceptional, missing only targets within my blind spot. Progress on my special katana was steady.
This year, Lightning Style would be my primary focus. With four years remaining until graduation, I formulated a strategic plan. Three years would be dedicated to intensive ninjutsu and genjutsu training, along with other essential skills – all except taijutsu and kenjutsu. The final year would be a taijutsu-centric period, a calculated move coinciding with the formation of Team Guy. Here, my plan took a daring turn – manipulating Rock Lee with a well-timed genjutsu to gain access to the rigorous diet and training regimen for unlocking the Eight Gates.
Life wasn't solely defined by relentless training for me.
Weekends offered a much-needed respite, and I discovered another way to both unwind and generate income – introducing the world of manga to Konohagakure. I meticulously recreated stories, fairytales, and popular anime from my past life – from Disney classics and Harry Potter to iconic series like Death Note and Attack on Titan. While these were met with decent reception, true success lay elsewhere. I delved into the realm of adult novels, discreetly adapting infamous works like "Overflow" and titillating light novels like "The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really Loves me", "Highschool DxD", etc. I even penned my own creation – "Man of Culture" – which unexpectedly surpassed the renowned "Icha Icha Paradise" in popularity. This clandestine writing career thrived under a veil of anonymity, a necessity considering the potential wrath of Jiraiya if he discovered the source of such… stimulating content. But that didn't stop Jiraiya. He send letter for collab in the book shops which help me publish the books. Good thing I decided to keep my identity hidden at least for adult writer. But for manga, I thought it would be best to reveal the original owner.
My Sharingan provided a distinct advantage, allowing me to illustrate his stories with breathtakingly detailed, high-definition colored images (especially the adult content). This further elevated my work, captivating readers in a way Konoha had never seen before. Beyond writing, I ventured into the world of commerce, investing strategically in existing businesses and establishing my own ventures. These endeavors flourished, and the simmering resentment directed towards the Uchiha clan after the Nine-Tails incident gradually morphed into a sense of shared grief because of massacre and, ultimately, support for the sole surviving heir.
My newfound social standing earned me invitations to various clan gatherings. I capitalized on this by designing custom clothing lines that bridged the gap between traditional Uchiha attire and modern trends. These outfits, featuring the Uchiha clan symbol with a touch of contemporary flair, proved popular. I even recreated the legendary garb of Indra Otsutsuki, emblazoned with the Uchiha emblem on the back. (Imagine the look of Black Zetsu and otsutsukis if they saw me fighting in these).
Beyond clan functions, Yoshino Nara, the matriarch, often extended warm invitations for lunch or dinner, same invitations came from mother of Ino, mother of Choji and from the house of Shino & Kiba. I reciprocated these gestures, further solidifying our bond by inviting them sometimes.
My birthday loomed, and the guest list spiraled out of control thanks to my well-intentioned nature. Initially, I invited the clan heads, Hokage, elders, and classmates. Guilt tugged at me, however, for excluding Sakura due to her civilian background and Naruto for being ostracized. Unwilling to perpetuate their isolation, I extended invitations to them as well. Knowing Naruto's aversion to anything but orange, I discreetly commissioned a custom-made orange outfit for the occasion (that boy sacrificed his hair but still wears orange even after becoming Hokage). Why? Because it's MY party! However, the guest list continued to snowball. I remembered Iruka-sensei and the other teachers. I also remembered Jounins who aided me after the massacre. I felt a responsibility towards my loyal business staff too. Before I knew it, the entire Leaf Village and the Fire Daimyo were on the invitation list! The important figures and the ones I know in the compound and others in my restaurants and some other places in village I booked from them.

I, ever meticulous, ensured everything was impeccable. The cats, however, took extravagance to a whole new level. They hired the finest caterers, procured the rarest wines, and sourced a mind-boggling variety of exotic dishes. Every guest received a unique return gift, and an army of waiters scurried to fulfill every need.
The cats' outlandish tendencies truly shone through. They bafflingly opted to hire an all-female entertainment troupe, much to my bewilderment. When questioned about hiring both females and booking a separate show, their nonchalant reply was, "Those were for the guests inside the compound." Apparently, the showgirls were specifically targeted towards the unsuspecting villagers outside! It was so much that I would have been definitely afraid to see the bill if I haven't set up the business and getting my share from Konoha Police.
Adding to the surreal turn of events, the cats somehow managed to secure the presence of Jiraiya and Tsunade, and even held a charity doing event in my name across the Land of Fire! They even ventured beyond the Fire Daimyo's borders, inviting rogue ninjas from Konoha! Thanks to Denka, Hina, and Kurobane (I shared the truth about Itachi), the Akatsuki organization also found themselves mysteriously invited, with reports indicating appearances by Orochimaru, Itachi, a masked individual, and Kisame! They told me that they took good care of Itachi and even provided him a free Lap Dance & room from the most gorgeous female they hired. WHAT THE FUCK!! And most of all, do they want me to get arrested for feeding rogues?!
And not just that, these shameless creatures even find a way to make money in my birthday party!
The pièce de résistance of feline ingenuity? A gambling den! They even opened shops offered high-quality chakra swords at exorbitant prices, claiming they belonged to legendary shinobi. Post-party, they implemented a "lost and found" service, charging exorbitant retrieval fees with the excuse of a pre-emptive warning sign but only the things were returned. They kept the found money. To maximize their profit margins, these shameless creatures even shapeshifted into women to dance and fleece the unsuspecting villagers!
Then why did they hire females and booked the show. They said that these were for the guests inside the compounds. They scammed the villagers who attended outside the district!!
I invited EVERYONE because I felt BAD for something I was not even obligated to do and they scammed them in every LEGAL way possible!
WHAT THE HECK!
Now I feel like I am in there debt even if I am not! And worst of all, it will happen every year.
But well, at least part of it was awesome. It was a chaotic, unforgettable celebration that would forever be etched in the memories of the Leaf Village. And worst of all, it will happen every year. But I didn't cut an cake because for me, it was a formality rather than celebrating my own birthday. If it was up to me, I will never celebrate it. Even if I throw a party, anyone with common sense would have figured it out. Birthdays held little significance for me, but witnessing the outpouring of goodwill from the village warmed a small corner of my heart.
From the topic of birthday, I decided to do something on brother Itachi's birthday. He was still my only living relative. Itachi's birthday would become a personal tradition, a day dedicated to indulging in my brother's favorite sweet, even if it meant enduring my own distaste for sugary treats.
Meanwhile, the Uchiha resurgence was well underway. The Police Military Forces were fully operational, incorporating both general units and specialized ones. My private army, trained in secret with Zero's assistance, continued to grow, their knowledge base meticulously guarded by the two and the cats.
The statues of Indra and Ashura, the legendary founders of the Uchiha and Senju clans and the sage & his brother and Kaguya respectively, stood tall. Open to the public, they served as a bridge between the past and present, fostering a sense of understanding and respect within the village. The influence of the Uchiha clan, once shattered, was slowly being rebuilt, brick by brick. They were regaining their footing in Konohagakure, not through force, but through dedicated service and strategic advancements.
[A question- Hinata will be the main love interest and this will not be the harem. But I want to ask you all that should I also add Nanashi Uchiha? Those who have played NarutoXboruto connections will know who she is. If you all say yes then I can add her with MC with finding her and breaking her SEAL.]
(Done! Have a great Day/Night!)
