Chapter 1

*blink* *blink*

When I opened my eyes , a different ceiling greeted me. Seeing this I had no choice but to believe my new reality now.

Last night I woke up in the middle of night but found myself in a completely different environment and a different body.

Naturaly I was shocked but the pain which came together with a surge of new memories, forced me to temporarily forget about it.

It was weird as the memories seemed to have etched inside my mind and I instantly comprehended them like they were my own in the first place. But I knew that I was not the Kitamura Aoki from the memories.

I was deeply confused by the sudden events but could only think about them for few minutes when sleep hit me. Well the mental burden after the surge of memories was too much. I had to agree with that.

Now I was awake in the morning but the room was not the one which I lived in on Earth. So I decided to swiftly accept my new reality. There were many reasons for my quick adapting but I only needed one.

The reason was this new body. It belonged to a Jounin from Konoha. Yes! The very same hidden village from the anime Naruto. For an anime lover, this situation of mine was too good already. And my starting point was already much better than some other protagonists.

I left the futon and could not help but lament the personality of the previous owner of this body. To put it simply , he was a loner which was different from my personality. Well I could not blame him either because he changed after witnessing many deaths of his closed ones.

His parents were shinobi from civilian origins but both of them were elite chunin. One day when he was 5, they went for a mission and never came back.

He was from same generation as Kakashi and Obito thus was thrown into the 3rd Shinobi world war and had to part with many closed ones including his jounin sensei and two genin teammates.

According to the memories, that was the time when his personality started changing. He became afraid of having a close relationship with anyone else only to lose them in the end.

I felt shivers when the memories of the war started playing inside my mind on their own. Looks like it will take a while for me to completely adapt to having these memories inside my mind.

Anyway one fact was already clear inside me which was that I was not Kitamura Kou but had no choice to live as him from now on. Well I definitely wont follow his lifestyle though.

It was a miracle that I had somehow obtained this new body. It would be not worth it if I did not enjoy my new life. The world which existed only inside comics or TV was now my new reality. So I planned to explore it as much as I could.

I cleared my mind and looked at the reflection in the Mirror. My new looks were handsome for my standards. Especially the sword like eyebrows which were practically the only good point about my new face though. My body was too fit for my standards but well I more than welcomed it.

I stood 185 cm tall which felt nice as my old body was barely 165 cm tall. The feeling of strength coursing in my body gave me whole lot of confidence which was enough for me to start my new life as a shinobi. I knew that I would have to kill from now on but I was more than ready for it. At least that was the plan..

I changed into my jounin gear almost instinctively and was amazed for a moment. The familiar jonin vest from the anime looked life like. Now I could feel how those cosplayers felt on Earth because the outfit looked realy cool !

While looking at my reflection in the Mirror, I could not help but smile while wearing the headband of Konoha. Now I was ready to start my journey but first of all I really wanted to try some ninjutsu. Thus I started walking towards the direction of Training Ground 9 which was the one Aoki used when training.
