Chapter 52: Notice
Hey guys, Happy New Year.
Made a New year resolution of completing this fanfic.
Apologies for not posting any chapter for over a year. Unfortunately, I was just too busy irl. I wrote a bit during the past year, but never had enough time to write continuously. I suppose there was also some exhaustion and reluctance in getting back to writing continuously.
So this time, I'm launching P@treon to motivate myself a bit. Thanks in advance to all who decide to support me.

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com
('a' instead of @)
I'll start uploading chapters soon (will do a small mass release later today).
Anyways, there has been a break in writing. So the next few chapters might not be that good. Apologies in advance for that. Criticism and tips are always welcomed as usual.
I'll be making some changes though. Writing chapters worth 2-3k words was very taxing. So I'll be reducing chapter length to 1-1.5k words (If I have to write any around 800-1000 words, I'll release an additional chapter)
I did go through the fanfic. And realized that the character interactions are just way too little. So are the emotions displayed by MC. So I'll try to increase character interactions. And will show MC enjoying his time more rather than just covering his training routine.
I did read all the comments and complaints by the readers who read the fic when it was on hiatus. So clarifying a few things.
1. MC is giving too much importance to Danzo/MC is too worried about him
See he just has one chance at life. And he has no interest in depending upon luck or hoping some plot supports him to avoid their radar or to get him out of trouble once he has been noticed. I don't plan on making MC behave like a moron just to get himself in trouble and then giving him insane luck or power boost to get him out of trouble. (PS : He may fall in trouble later on, but it'll be due to circumstances out of his control and not due to stupidity)
2. MC isn't talented.
True. He isn't talented at anything. No system, no godly talent. Later on in the story, some of his skills and talent will increase exponentially (PS : He's just 10 right now). The title of the fic and MC's name should give you an idea. But it'll happen slowly over years. His only real advantage is that due to being such a fan of Naruto and other manga/novels, he really yearns for becoming strong. Not something a random kid from the Naruto world will have. His time in the academy pretty much showed this. Of course, even this drive might not really compare to the kind of training Guy did.
3. MC is cowardly
That he is, lol. He is just a normal guy who transmigrated into a world of deadly killers. Just cause he transmigrated and has some information regarding future plot, won't suddenly increase his courage. In fact, this has the opposite effect, as he knows how powerful the enemies will be and he knows how the leaders of the village can fuck you up.
In addition, so far, he has had real battles only against bandits. And that too when an Elite Jounin was watching over him. He will have his character development slowly, to shed off this habit and be more brave. Getting stronger will also affect his behavior (PS : He'll always choose to take the easier way out and focus on his own benefits though)
I'll upload the chapters soon. Will try to upload 5 every week. Could increase or decrease depending upon chapter sizes.
