Hiruzen sat at his desk, a satisfied smile tugging at the corners of his mouth as he reviewed the results of the academy exams. His eyes lingered on the names at the top of the list, particularly one that had shattered all previous records.
Yuto Yamanaka: First place, surpassing all previous records, including those held by none other than Itachi Uchiha.
Naruko Uzumaki: Second place, another extraordinary talent. She had aced the exams and broken records as well, but fell just short of Yuto's overall score, particularly in the written test.
Hitomi Uchiha: Third place, impressive in her own right, though her achievements were slightly behind the top two.
Hiruzen leaned back in his chair, folding his arms as he took a moment to appreciate the accomplishments of these young shinobi-to-be. "Both of them have come so far. It's truly remarkable to see the next generation's efforts to grow strong and protect the village," he murmured to himself, his smile broadening. However, his expression soon darkened as his thoughts drifted to a more troubling matter.
Danzo.
"There's no way Danzo will sit idly by after seeing these results," Hiruzen thought grimly. "He'll want to sink his claws into Yuto, just as he did with so many others. Root won't hesitate to act if they see a chance." His fingers drummed against the desk as he contemplated how best to keep Danzo from meddling with Yuto's future.
Meanwhile, Yuto was blissfully unaware of Hiruzen's concerns as he sat on his bed, staring at the floating quest completion screen with a triumphant smile. He had done it. The academy exams were over, and he had crushed them. More importantly, he had completed his two remaining quests.
[Quest Number 1:

Keep doing these exercises till your academy exams and Ace the test.(COMPLETED)
Reward:Mystery Box, 2 points added to all your stats.]
A rush of energy flowed through his body as he felt the rewards from his quests taking effect. He could feel his muscles becoming stronger, his reflexes sharper. With excitement bubbling inside him, Yuto opened his status screen to check the changes due to his training and the status points.
[Status:

Yuto grinned at his progress. His body was steadily growing stronger, and with the stat points he had earned, he was well on his way to surpassing even his wildest expectations. Dismissing the status screen, he turned his attention to his inventory. With a quick tap, he opened the two mystery boxes he had received as rewards. The familiar chime echoed in his mind, and as the boxes opened, new abilities were added to his eye abilities section.
[Status:
Strength: 18
Speed: 19
Dexterity: 16
Stamina: 20
Chakra: 15
Chakra Control: 25
Intelligence: 120
Luck: 25
E-Points: 0
L-Points: 0
Eye Abilities: Illusions, Scanner, Chakra Thermal Vision, Solar eyes.
Overall Power Level: Low Genin level(without eyes)]
Yuto excitedly clicked on the eye abilities stat and looked at the discription of his new eye abilities.
[Chakra Thermal Vision: This ability would allow the user to see people's chakra signatures, making it impossible for them to hide. It worked like a combination of a thermal vision and chakra detection, letting the user spot enemies even if they masked their presence.]
[Solar Eyes: A versatile and powerful ability, the Solar Eyes would passively absorb solar energy whenever the user was in sunlight. This energy could either be converted into additional chakra or be fired as solar beams from the user's eyes or hands when needed. The storage of the solar energy is equal to the amount of chakra the user has.]
Yuto couldn't help but feel excited at the new potential of his eyes. The combination of abilities he had now was unlike anything he had ever seen or read about in the original Naruto series. His mind raced with the possibilities as he considered how he could use these powers.
"I want to try them out so badly... but I can't risk revealing them yet, not with that Anbu or Root guy watching me so closely," he muttered under his breath, recalling the ever-present surveillance he knew was around him. "I'll need to find a clever way to 'accidentally' show off my powers when the time comes... perhaps in a battle or a situation where my life is at risk."
As the thoughts swirled in his mind, he smiled, feeling more confident than ever. "I still haven't named these eyes," Yuto realized. "They're evolving with every new ability... so I'll call them Kamigan, The Ultimate Eyes." He nodded to himself, pleased with the name. "When the time is right, I'll reveal them as part of my 'awakening'—claim they evolved under pressure, just like the Sharingan."
Content with his plan, Yuto dismissed the status screen and lay back in bed, feeling a sense of satisfaction wash over him. All that remained was the future—one he intended to dominate. His eyelids grew heavy as sleep crept up on him, and with a final thought about the journey ahead, Yuto drifted off into a peaceful slumber. The academy was just the beginning. The world had yet to see the rise of the Ashura no Shinobi.
