"This! What is this?!"
Staring at the astonishing scene before him, Yu's mouth hung open in amazement.
"So... this..."
After standing there dumbfounded for a while, he finally reacted and a look of joy appeared on his face. "I understand!"
So, what he successfully practiced was not Naruto Uzumaki's Rasengan but the Rasengan of Naruto Uzumaki's son – Boruto Uzumaki!
Readers who have seen Boruto know that Boruto's Rasengan is unique. It can be thrown as a long-range attack, and it disappears halfway, becoming nearly invisible, even to the Byakugan.
"How interesting..."
"I never thought I would develop such a unique Rasengan!"
After realizing this, Yu, who had exhausted all his chakra through the practice, sat down on the ground, unable to hide his excitement.
It is now the year 44 in Konoha. The genius ninja Kakashi Hatake only created the Chidori when he was twelve years old and promoted to Jonin. Minato Namikaze, who had not yet become the Fourth Hokage, had not yet developed the Rasengan.
In other words, Yu is now the creator of these two iconic techniques – Chidori and Rasengan!
"A disappearing Rasengan..."
"It's a bit cumbersome to say, so let's call it the Vanishing Rasengan!"
Exhausted from the practice, Yu lay down on the grass. Through the scattered branches in the woods, he gazed at the clear blue sky of Konoha and gave the Rasengan he had just completed a fitting name.
After all, in the world of Naruto, there is nothing that can't be solved by a Rasengan, and if there is, you just need to make a bigger one! (laughs)
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Outside the orphanage in Konoha, a large crowd had gathered.
"I'm so envious..."
"Yu, you little rascal..."
Among the group of children from the Konoha Orphanage, Yu's closest friend, Urushi, cheered him on loudly.
"Once you get to the Ninja Academy, make sure to give it your all!"
"After all, you're the most talented kid in our orphanage!"
Though he would often claim otherwise, it was clear that deep down, Urushi admired Yu's talent and hard work.
"Wah, I can't bear to see Yu go!"
Not to mention, Mai and Momoka, Yu's fangirls, who were the most infatuated with him, couldn't hide their reluctance.

"Don't be so dramatic, you guys..."
Seeing Urushi, Mai, and Momoka acting as if they were about to lose a dear friend, Yu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. "I'm just going to the Ninja Academy, not on a long journey. I'll be back tonight."
"Yu, I'm sorry."
"On such an important day, I can't accompany you to the entrance ceremony..."
At this moment, Nono, who was standing nearby, wore an apologetic expression.
With a gentle face and a bit of weariness, Nono had been busy treating the injured ninja who frequently returned to the village from the frontlines. As a medical ninja, she had been healing these injured ninjas and earning money for the orphanage.
"Don't be silly, Director."
Facing Nono's apologetic expression, Yu consoled her like an adult would comfort a child.
"It's just the entrance ceremony, not a big deal. I'll head out now!"
With that said, Yu, under the gaze of Nono and Urushi, disappeared into the forest.
…
Ninja Academy.
It was a building with white walls and yellow tiles, not far from the Hokage's office. The signboard read "Konoha Ninja Academy," and beneath it hung a banner that said "Welcome to the Entrance Ceremony."
The entrance gate was wide open, and two Chunin stood at the entrance, handling reception. The academy's courtyard was filled with parents and children who had come to register.
"So many people..."
After submitting his registration materials and application at the adjacent enrollment counter, Yu looked around curiously. The academy's courtyard was crowded with ninja parents and their children.
Occasionally, Yu would recognize some familiar faces from his memory among the new ninja of this year.
"I wonder if that guy came to enroll today?"
Surveying the surroundings, Yu couldn't help but mutter to himself, but as soon as he finished speaking, he saw a familiar figure entering from the gate of the Ninja Academy.
"Yu!"
"I knew it! You'd definitely be here today!"
From the crowd, Uchiha Shisui, spotted Yu with his distinctive white hair. His dark eyes lit u, and he pushed through the crowd to get to Yu.
"You... are you also coming to enroll alone?"
Seeing Shisui indeed showing up, Yu smiled, but when he noticed that Shisui was also alone and without parents, he hesitated.
"Ah..."
Sensing Yu's hesitation, Shisui's eyes dimmed. "Yeah, my grandpa... sacrificed himself on the battlefield when my dad was very young..."
"My parents also passed away when I was little..."
Explaining with a casual tone, Shisui quickly returned to his usual cheerful smile as he looked at Yu. "So, I was raised by my grandmother."
"I'm sorry."
Yu had not expected that Shisui, who was always gentle and cheerful, had such a tragic background. His eyes widened, and he quickly apologized.
Indeed, I almost forgot.
Shisui is the grandson of Kagami Uchiha, a disciple of the second Hokage. His family members are no longer in this world.
"It's okay."
Seeing Yu's apology, Shisui waved it off with a carefree smile, not bothered at all. Instead, he looked at Yu, who had come to register alone, with a hint of curiosity.
"Yu, are you here alone too?"
"Um..." Facing Shisui's inquisitive gaze, Yu hesitated for a moment, then smiled.
"Yeah, I'm an orphan brought back from the battlefield by the Konoha Orphanage."
This wasn't a lie. Although he wasn't an orphan in his previous life, in this life, his identity as a war orphan brought back by the Konoha Orphanage was indeed true.
"I see, so that's how it is."
Upon hearing this, Shisui suddenly realized.
Looking at Yu, who was extraordInarily talented and had an outstanding appearance, Shisui couldn't help but feel a sense of camaraderie.
Indeed, both of them were exceptionally talented young geniuses with tragic backgrounds, and this could indeed bring them closer together.
"Wow, wow, wow!!!"
"He's so handsome! It seems like there's a handsome guy in this year's new students too!"
In the teaching building of the Ninja Academy, by the window, a crowd had already gathered.
Seeing the handsome and cheerful Yu and Shisui on the field, a group of older female students couldn't contain their excitement.
"That guy with black hair is so cute when he smiles!"
One girl covered her chest and exaggeratedly made heart-shaped gestures with her hands.
"I don't like that guy with the bun hairstyle..."
"Look at the one with white hair! He's so handsome!!"
A few other girls expressed entirely different opinions.
Their faces flushed, and they looked like they could faint from shock at any moment.
