Dazen was smiling as he thought, 'The look on his face when I told him about the discount was priceless, but other than that he seems like a nice and pleasant guy and the food was really good, I'll come back whenever I have some money left, it's a little late I'll hurry, there's still somewhere I want to go.'

Starting to run, Dazen went towards a semi-isolated place where there was no one at that time, it was the monument to Konoha's heroes, this was the last place Dazen wanted to see, but it didn't have much to do with him but rather with the desire of the previous owner of that body.

In front of the monument, Dazen searched for his parents' names and then found it and stood there looking for a few moments while thinking: 'When I decided to visit important points in Konoha I had the strange desire to visit this place, I think it has to do with the owner previous part of the body... During all this time I was a little distant from the people in this world, I think I kind of unconsciously saw everyone as characters, but that's no longer true, now they're all real people with goals, dreams and pains just like me .'

For a while Dazen stood still thinking about the last year he might not be an extroverted person, but he made some friends and met new people and started to care about them: 'I guess I'm not the emotionless type, after all, I thought I could be someone who would do everything to survive and only think about myself, but I think it's impossible, that will make everything a little more difficult.'

Sighing Dazen turned and went towards his house thinking about several things, Dazen knew what kind of world he was in and that he would see a lot of death even from people close to him and he couldn't do anything, so not caring would make everything better easy when that moment came, but in the end it was impossible for him to be that kind of person.

Arriving home, Dazen went straight to his bed as he thought, 'I can only train harder, I might not be able to change the main events, but I must be strong enough to not have any regrets about my life, I don't want to think about something like that' I could have saved him or I should have trained more" I will live and make the most of this life.' Dazen smiled and then some time later he fell asleep.

The other day Dazen woke up to the clock alarm so he got ready and headed towards the ninja academy as expected today he was very excited with several parents coming to drop off their children and the older students arriving early and talking to each other about their vacation, what they did, the training and how they got stronger during these vacation.

Dazen soon saw his two friends who were always together and said smiling: "You guys are a couple or something, I don't think I've ever seen you separated and always arriving at the same time, that's suspicious."

Hearing the implication in Dazen's voice, Koda quickly got angry and replied: "Stop making things up, we just live nearby, so I always stop by this lazy idiot's house before coming to the academy."

Hiroshi also replied: "The idiot here is you Koda, stop insulting me out of nowhere and Dazen stop insinuating things like that and with this weirdo.'"

Hearing Hiroshi's insult, Koda started to insult him back and not wanting to miss the joke, Dazen also started to do the same, which soon turned into a meaningless and noisy argument with everyone looking at the trio of idiots without understanding anything.

After a while Hiroshi interrupted the entire discussion saying: "Okay, this isn't leading to anything and everyone is looking at us arguing, anyway this was all your fault, Dazen, you started this whole argument."

Koda agreed: "True, he started it all, his lame jokes."

Dazen said laughing: "I didn't tell any joke, I just raised a suspicious point, leaving that aside, how was your vacation?"

Without letting Hiroshi respond, Koda quickly said: "I trained a lot with my uncle who is a chunin during the vacation, especially my taijutsu, I improved a lot, you better prepare yourself this year, I'm going to finish you off so you won't be able to continue with your jokes."

Dazen looked at him and said: "We'll see during the fight, what about you Hiroshi?" asked Dazen, turning to Hiroshi.

He replied: "My father also made me train a lot, he wants me to become a sensor like him, after all he said I have talent in the area, Oh I remembered now there was something I wanted to talk to you about the new students, this will make you interested."

Surprised, Dazen and Koda asked together, "What about the newbies?"

Hiroshi quickly replied: "Last year you said you wanted to see if among the newcomers there was a new genius like Minato and well my father said that this year there might actually be one, his name is Kakashi he is the son of Sakumo Hatake the 'White Fang' everyone is saying he's a genius look he's there with his father."

Hiroshi pointed in a direction and Dazen quickly looked in the direction he was pointing and soon saw a small white-haired child with a mask that covered half of his face next to a tall white-haired man who was smiling while talking to other parents.
