Real Traveler

In first year, nothing memorable happened. Except for the fact that an a.d.u.l.t soul, with formed personality and with enough knowledge to shock even Orochimaru (even if it's only in genetics and only the one that didn't actually start his real researches in this area.), every day was very ashamed, because of the baby's body functionality. Just imagine you are just trying to focus on your new discovered energy manipulation or when you are playing with your parents (they are playing with you) and you **** in your diaper. It was some new and very unpleasant experience for him.

Almost right after his birth he started to understand and learn everything he could, but in first month his eyes and ears couldn't function properly. So, the only thing he did is, practicing his chakra control, although he didn't know, but normally only a few kids under 4 years can activate and control their chakra. It depends on many factors, but the main factor is chakra reserves of the parents and parent's chakra density. His mother was Half-Uzumaki and his father was Yamanaka Clan head's second son, so he didn't have problem with chakra quality, even if his father's chakra reserve was only of low-Jonin's. As Yamanakas don't specialize in Combat and Ninjutsu, they need only chakra quality (density).

In the beginning he couldn't move his chakra in his body, he thought that either he had some defects, or every child has the same problem. First Option was unlikely, he felt like AAIS wouldn't do such thing. Out of the boredom he started trying to move his chakra slowly, even it was like a glue after it will start move everything must go smoothly. Chakra threads were like vein through which he could deliver his chakra to different parts of his body. His chakra system was like his cardiovascular system without a hearth, instead of the hearth there was something s.u.c.k.i.n.g some energy from his soul and body and then it was mixing them to produce his chakra. After first month he could already move his chakra, not fast, but instead of some hours from Central Chakra Generator (CCG) it took him only 3:34 minutes. Yes, it is not enough even to be able to form some illusionary clone, but he was till happy with his progress.

In the end of the year, his overall chakra control was on the level, when kids already can start leaf manipulation with chakra, he started to walk when he was 5 months old, it wasn't some actual acquirement, because of the chakra's influence shinobi's kids grow stronger and faster. His chakra reserve grew faster than other kids chakra reserve, in coompare to the ones he met or just saw on the street while walking with her mother in the city and yes I don't know why everyone describe or mention Konoha as a village, its perimeter is a bit smaller than Paris ring's perimeter. It is only if we won't count public and private training grounds. Private training grounds are open only for the clan's members, they also have some field like Star Wars defensive barriers, which also shows an illusion of some forest.

"Ichi-chan come her baby we need to go out and meet your friends. Hurry up and before we go out wash your hands, they are sprinkling with chakra ink." - said Akino, Ichimaru's mother.

"Allith mom, I'm almosth done with this one!" - answered Ichimaru loudly from different room - 'and one more annoying problem, I still can't speak without errors.' - Sigh.

After he started to speak so early his parents, his parents were slightly surprised, only slightly, because Nara's babies start to say words, even in compare to their son a bit early. One day, when they were reading ichi some baby's book, he started to read on his own and asked them to teach him how to read and write properly. After some thinking Akino and Takeshi decided to teach him. But his father doesn't have time to teach him much, but he tried, No one can blame him as it was still war time, so every ninja is needed, thankfully Yamanakas doesn't really work on the front lines, they focus more for the interrogation and examination, although only a few Yamanakas could do examination. Even his mother was sometimes busy. As she must have to work and create Fuinjutsus, like barrier, sensor and explosive Fuins.

After some time, learning calligraphy, he came to his mother and stated that he will help. Her mother just tried laugh him off, but when she saw a determined look in his eyes, she though and decided to give him a paper and an ink, it wasn't like he could do something bad, just price for the chakra ink was high. After some time passed and she noticed that her child was not playing around, he drew very detailed Fuin, but as he didn't what to do next, he was just staring at his writing. After his mother noticed it, she was pride and a bit curious if he could do something simple if she explained him what to do. So, she does and after explanation of basics like he doesn't only need to draw, he must fill his chakra on some places with intent or he must transform chakra structure into elemental chakra structure. Unfortunately for Ichimaru he couldn't do elemental transformation, as to make elemental transformation, in the best case, you need to have some elemental affinity in blood like Uchiha's and your CCG must be fully formed, which takes almost 3-4 years or you must wait even longer if you are clan less. He couldn't really train his body at this age, only one thing is stretching, which don't need a lot of time. And right now, maximum what he could do was sticking Fuin. It was some low-level training method for kids in Fuin. His mother shown him how to do the same and he repeated what his mother done after 4th try. After that day he started to help his mother with drawing and then her mother could finish Fuin with the chakra. When he turned 1 year old he met: first 1 year and second 2 and a half years old boys from Nara Clan, one 2 years old girl from Akimichi Clan, 1 and a half year old cousin, little brother of his cousin Inouichi, Yamanaka Clan's heir and lastly one 1 year boy from Sarutobi Clan and actually this boy is Sarutobi Hiruzen's son and in the future Konohamaru's father. In his previous world he once has read, that Danzo took him to his root after his wife were tortured and killed on the mission in front of him and to pay back to Hiruzen for something Danzo took his depressed son in his organization.

But back to the future,( :) ) it's been a week since he started to practice some simple exercises of chakra control and draining his chakra reserve, because he did notice that when CCG generates chakra, when ninja has less than 10% of maximum value, chakra regeneration speed and chakra pool slightly grow.

'Since my birthday we every third day go to other kids. I think in the future we will form teams, and I think it will be Ino-Shika-Cho formation and me, Arata Sarutobi and Shiradai Nara. But I can't be 100% sure about that. Anyway, I know it's a bit boring and hard to play with kids of 1 year old when you also need to act like 1 year old, but I need to know them close so that I can influence them and in the future I gain powerful backup and small benefits from Hokage's son' - though Ichimaru, while his mother pulled him up and went to the Sarutobi's main compound, today they were meeting his future teammates in Arata's house.
