Kagurama's Pov.
I finally accepted the fact that I just plainly suck at the academy. A child with my intellectual should be a prodigy, but sadly the words of Iruka-Sensei just don't make much sense to me. It just sounds so incredibly inaccurate, thus forcing my subconscious to disregard and forget everything taught.
Within the years I spent there, I barely passed the written tests thrown in my direction. I was labeled a loser, and was at the bottom of the class. Seeing that people's opinion won't change of me if I did score high, I fought miserably during the Taijutsu tests. Don't get me wrong, I'm arrogantly certain I could defeat all the kids at Taijutsu. I mean, what is the point? Get them to hate me even more? No. If I want to be Hokage, I need them to think of me as a loser rather than be hated even more than I am right now. I need to shock them when I become so strong, that they'll have no choice but to accept me as their Hokage.
I glared at the calendar that stood mockingly on my wall. October 10th was the date. The date of my birthday. It was also the Hokage son's birthday. I only know this because he apparently throws a "super cool party" and only invited "super cool people".
Turning 7 to me just meant I had less time to work on my Jutsu. The book Fox gave me was completely useless in my opinion, thus forcing me to seek him out, which proved pointless. I then had to go all the way to the Hokage tower, wait 3 hours just to have a presence with him, before having to wait another 2 months until I could have a meet with Fox. Even then, I was greeted by the stupid summoning animal that seemed to love getting on my nerves. The minute I learn to Henge perfectly, I'm going to buy whatever I want, without anyone rejecting me.
Seeing as there was no point to sit around and mope, I put the new book of Ninjutsu in my pouch, and put my shoes on. Today would be a day I dedicate everything to training. I will learn what my chakra nature is, and learn Jutsu's based off of that. The whole topic of chakra nature, another topic parents taught their kids, weren't even explained properly! All Iruka-Sensei did was ask the class if they knew what it was, had a pink haired female named Sakura Haruno explain it, and then move on to propaganda about the leaf village! Absolutely absurd in my opinion.
I just hope I have more than one chakra nature. The 3rd Hokage has all 5, so it would be pretty lame if I only had one pathetic chakra nature.
"Speaking of the third, I should ask him for help! He could train me... no that's a horrible idea! The Shinobi of the village wouldn't even let me within 50 feet of the Sarutobi household." I guess being a retired Kage has its benefits. Complete protection over this "beast." How annoying. I made sure to lock my door, before using the roofs to get to the south forest.
I would have made it all the way to the clearing I train in with no problems if it weren't for me spotting a group of boys picking on the Hyuuga Heiress. Normally I'd ignore it, but I had to think about it. A Hokage wouldn't stand for this would he? Bullying the Heiress of the Hyuuga clan, much less a child? Wait not the child part since I've been being bullied my whole life, and the Hokage seem to have no problems against it. I furrowed my brows and shook my head.
