Chapter 2: Chapter :2
But if you want to do additional training to enhance your strength, you still need to spend a lot of resources, and the money provided by the clan alone is not enough.
Unless…
Uchiha Haruto touched his eyes.
The Uchiha clan values members who can awaken the Sharingan far more than ordinary clan members. Being able to awaken the Sharingan signifies not only exceptional talent but also pure Uchiha blood.
"Forget it, let's see how much these savings are first."
Haruto looked at the collection of items in front of him, carefully counting the coins he found.
Haruto's parents were both Chuunin. They mainly undertook C-rank and B-rank missions. C-rank missions typically paid between 30,000 and 100,000 ryo, while B-rank missions ranged from 80,000 to 200,000 ryo.
However, the total earnings from a mission were shared among teammates, and a portion went to the village. On top of that, his parents, as ninjas, had to maintain their equipment and training supplies. After counting the remaining savings, Haruto calculated there were about 700,000 ryo left.
Aside from the money, the most valuable items were a box of ninjutsu scrolls that had been hidden under the bed.
Inside were mostly typical Uchiha fire-style jutsu scrolls. Among the C-rank jutsu were common techniques like the Fireball Jutsu and Phoenix Flower Jutsu. The only B-rank jutsu was the Dragon Flame Jutsu.
Generally, if an Uchiha had even a single tomoe Sharingan, learning C-rank jutsu wasn't difficult. However, B-rank jutsu often involved more advanced chakra manipulation, including nature and shape transformation. Without mastering these transformations, it would be hard to use the techniques to their full potential, even with the Sharingan's copying ability.
In addition to the fire-style jutsu, there were several scrolls on Uchiha shuriken techniques, such as the Windmill of Shadows and Three Blades. These techniques were especially effective when combined with the Sharingan.
The last scroll was the first part of the Uchiha swordsmanship style.
"These jutsu should keep me busy for quite some time. Once my rank increases or I make notable contributions, I can apply to the clan leader for higher-level ninjutsu scrolls."
Haruto thought quickly, making plans.
These scrolls would be enough for him to train in the beginning, potentially advancing to Chuunin level, much like his parents.
As for money, it should be sufficient for now, especially considering the financial support the family provided. Once it became known that he had awakened his Sharingan at the age of ten, the clan would undoubtedly pay more attention to him and offer greater support.

The Next Day - Early Morning
At half-past seven in the morning, Uchiha Haruto yawned as he walked to the Ninja Academy. Along the way, he greeted several clan members, following the habits of the body's previous owner. He carried his schoolbag on his back, still groggy from staying up late to finish his homework.
He had spent most of the night catching up. The weekend had been busy—he had only arrived on Saturday night, and the following day had been spent unpacking and organizing his things, leaving no time for schoolwork.
"Haruto! Morning!"
A girl with a black-backed puppy in her arms, her face painted with the usual Inuzuka clan markings, waved to him cheerfully.
"Morning!" Haruto replied, still sounding tired.
He recognized the girl as Inuzuka Tsume. Her grades were decent, and she came from the prominent Inuzuka clan, known for their ninja dogs.
"Haruto! Help me out! I forgot to do my homework again. Can I copy yours?"
Before Haruto could respond, Tsume grabbed the boy who was pleading for a copy of his homework. She glanced at Haruto, noticing his tired state, and spoke quietly to her friend.
"What? Haruto…" The boy, Tetsuo, started to protest loudly but was quickly silenced by Tsume.
"Quiet!" Tsume whispered as she looked over at Haruto, who had already laid his head on the desk, catching up on sleep.
When their homeroom teacher, Furukawa, entered the classroom, she noticed Haruto resting his head on the desk and sighed. Stopping a classmate who was about to wake him, Furukawa shook her head gently.
"Haruto has been through a lot in the past couple of days. Let him rest for now," Furukawa said, moving to the podium to start the lesson.
Today's class was mainly a review of important topics, and Furukawa knew that Haruto had already mastered the material. Given the recent events in his family, she thought it best to let him rest.
The morning passed quickly. Haruto only woke up when hunger stirred him from his sleep.
"Did I sleep through the whole morning?"
Haruto blinked as he realized what had happened.
It had been surprisingly easy to fall asleep at his desk. The moment he laid his head down, he was out like a light.
By now, it was lunchtime. His classmates were pulling out the lunches they had brought from home. Haruto, patting his backpack, realized he had forgotten his lunch in the rush to leave that morning.
Just then, Tsume, who had been feeding her ninja dog Kuromaru, noticed Haruto's empty hands.
"Haruto!" she called out.
"Huh? What's up?" Haruto replied.
"I packed too much tempura this morning. Can you help me finish it? I don't want to waste any food," Tsume offered with a smile.
"Uh…" Haruto hesitated, but before he could respond, Tetsuo chimed in.
"Haruto! I'm full already, but I haven't even touched this dessert. It's yours if you want it—don't waste food!" Tetsuo grinned, holding out a box of snacks.
"Thanks, Tsume, and you too, Tetsuo," Haruto said, smiling and nodding at them both.
"Hey, I'm going to be Hokage one day! Of course I'm going to help out my friends when they're in trouble!" Tetsuo declared confidently, standing on his chair and giving a thumbs-up.
"Tetsuo, maybe get down before you fall," Tsume sighed, rubbing her forehead in exasperation. Even Kuromaru seemed to shake his head at Tetsuo's antics.
Watching the scene unfold, Haruto couldn't help but smile to himself.
No matter what world he was in, it seemed life was both cruel and beautiful.
