Konoha, 46 Years since its founding.
Hyuga compound, a life was born to a dying mother.
"Waagh waa"
"Congratulations madam, it's a healthy boy."
"Can you bring him to me?"
A quiet voice rasped.
"He's beautiful."
"Madam, you should give him a name." Another woman's voice was heard.
"Yujiro… Yujiro Hyuga."
Those were the woman's last words.
The other woman wrote the baby's name on a piece of fabric and put it with the baby on a crib.
After finishing her current task she hurriedly went to treat another person.
After a while another nurse carried the crib to a person with white eyes.
"Did she survive?" The man asked.
"No Lord Sakazi"
"I see… Transport all the bodies back to Hyuga compound. I will take it from there."
While Sakazi Hyuga was carrying him Yujiro was in his own world.
"What's happening? Where am I?
Even though he was trying to open his eyes and listen to the sounds, make sounds around him he realized that he wasn't able to do anything.
While he was panicking it didn't take long for him to fall into unconsciousness.
After seeing the baby he was carrying fall into sleep, Sazaki sighed a breath of relief.
As for why he sighed a breath of relief it was because he was afraid Yujiro was going to wake up the entire village.
'Phew at least he's healthy, though I don't know how a new born baby can make more noise than a chaotic battlefield.'
After arriving to the Hyuga compound, Sakazi brought Yujiro to an orphanage.
After handing Yujiro to the dean of the Hyuga orphanage, he gave her instructions on how to handle the following orphans of the Hyuga clan.
After a couple of hours Yujiro woke up.
'What is going on? Why can't I move?' As Yujiro was questioning the situation, he soon realized that he was hungry.
Almost immediately without having time to think further he started to cry.
After a minute a woman came in with a bottle of milk.
Like instinct Yujiro started to suck hard on the bottle.
After finishing the bottle of milk, he finally had time to think.
'Am I really a baby? Did I die to something? But why can't I remember it?'
After questioning his death for a moment, he started to think about his current situation.
'I should have probably been reincarnated as a baby, though I don't know at which point of time I have been reincarnated into, and not where I have been reincarnated.
But that will take some time to confirm since I can't see. However I can hopefully learn the language quickly, since babies learned everything extremely quickly in my past life, hopefully that's the case here as well.'
Although he had such intentions it didn't take him long to fall asleep in the hands of the nanny that had been feeding him, after lulling him to sleep, put him in the crib and left.
At the next day when Yujiro woke up, it didn't take long for him to start crying involuntarily.
It didn't take him long to come to his senses, after the nanny cleaned up his soiled crib and fed him. After the nanny finished taking care of him another person came to the room to talk to the nanny.
While he can't see as he is just a baby, he can hear quite well as babies develop their hearing in their mothers wombs already.
'Is that Japanese?' While he couldn't be sure whether that was Japanese he was quite sure Japanese sounded like that in his previous life.
While trying to listen to the two women speak, he was also trying to move his body.
While unsuccessful he was quite sure that this would be beneficial to him in the future.
Like this trying to move and listen to sounds, like this he spent around 3 months of his life.
Although he could not be 100% sure on how long he spent he tried to count the days, though his counting was not accurate because of his irregular sleeping time.
On this particular day he finally succeeded in crawling for the first time. Of course he did not crawl for long before falling on his face.
'Sigh. Well it's progress from not being able to move.'
This face planting event was not the first time this had happened. While on the first few days of being taken care of was humiliating and brought him great shame. He has long since freed himself from such feelings.
Like his current motto. "You can't eat shame."
So he promised himself to never limit himself because of shame.
Although crawling was his biggest achievement currently, it was not the only thing he achieved in these 3 months. He also learned some individual words like food, sleep or morning.
With learning these words he confirmed that this was some kind of Japanese as for what kind it was he wasn't sure. After all, he remembers reading that Japanese has changed a lot over time.
Apart from this he has pieced together that this place is an orphanage, purely from the fact that there are over 20 other kids in here.
And from the amenities around this place he has started to question at what point of time he has arrived in.
After all there are fridges and electrical lights, but they cook their food on top of a live fire.
From this he can confirm that there should be some kind of technological achievements here but when he looks around, it looks like Japan from the Edo period.
Se he is quite unsure if he is even on earth anymore.
'Though this has little to do with me for the next ten years or so.' Or so he thought.
Author notes:
So I finally have some free time from irl and as I have to practice writing in English, I started to write this. I'm unsure of how long this is, but I will try to make this at least 100 ch.
I will most likely start to write, One piece growing potential once again.
