No matter what world it is, everyone goes through a certain phase.
That is the childhood phase, where time feels incredibly slow, sometimes even dragging like years.
But after growing up, time seems to fly by, as if a day passes in the blink of an eye.
Gojo Yoru, whose soul was that of an adult from another world, had always experienced the latter.
The infancy where he was conscious from birth, the toddler years when he refined Chakra at age three, and the student days when he awakened his Cheat at age six—all felt like yesterday.
As a new calendar was hung on the wall, a new year quietly arrived.
Unknowingly, Gojo Yoru's age had returned to double digits.
Konoha Year 34, January 7th.
This day was the start of the third semester of the Ninja Academy.
Gojo Yoru had dressed early and was standing in front of a full-length mirror, examining the young boy in the reflection.
Not yet ten years old, no matter how tall he grew, he was still just a child.
Only at ten would he be considered an early adolescent.
However, Gojo Yoru's early adolescence was a bit different from ordinary people.
In the original work, Jiraiya's height was 1.91 meters, definitely a giant in the Naruto world.
But when this giant graduated at the age of twelve, his height wasn't much different from his peers.
Gojo Yoru, on the other hand, was still a few months away from turning ten.
Yet his height had already reached 1.62 meters. He had grown another two centimeters this vacation, and the loose clothes bought just last year would soon no longer fit.
Having such height at ten years old wasn't anything special in many places in Gojo Yoru's previous life.
In certain countries in this world, it wasn't extremely rare either.
But in Konoha, where the average height of peers was only 1.3 or 1.4 meters, Gojo Yoru's height was a bit exaggerated.
It was no wonder Gojo Yoru's "school tyrant" persona intimidated the whole school; this height was simply too bullying.
Just standing in front of him, peers who were a head shorter would immediately feel an overwhelming pressure.
That was an overwhelming power!
Even Gojo Yoru himself was certain that in this life, he would definitely be over 1.8 meters, or even a small giant of 1.9 meters in the future.
"It seems not only the surname is the same and the looks are similar, but even the height will probably be very close. Will I really turn into Gojo Satoru 2.5 in the future?" Looking at the handsome boy in the mirror, Gojo Yoru couldn't help but tease himself.
Although he said this, Gojo Yoru didn't think so in his heart.
While his character model looked very much like Gojo Satoru, Gojo Yoru's ability was more like Ryomen Sukuna's.
Gojo Yoru, who mastered space-time abilities, would only be the one cutting others in half; no one would appear to cut him in half. Yep!
Finally adjusting his collar, Gojo Yoru put his hands in his pockets and jumped down from the balcony.
Outside the door, a figure had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Gojo Yoru come downstairs in this manner, Uzumaki Kushina couldn't help but complain, "You only know how to act cool every day. If you fall one day, I'll laugh at you for the rest of my life."
Despite saying this, a flash of amazement passed through Uzumaki Kushina's eyes.
Both were handsome blue-eyed boys, but Gojo Yoru and Namikaze Minato were polar opposites in style, leading to completely opposite dressing styles as well.
Namikaze Minato had a gentle style, called "Little Sun" by classmates, dressing like a warm-hearted boy.
Gojo Yoru, on the other hand, had a cool style, known as the "Great Demon King," dressing in dark and aloof attire.
Gojo Yoru wore a white cardigan trench coat over a black shirt on his upper body, paired with black trousers and shoes on his lower body.
This predominantly black style might look a bit alternative on others.
But on Gojo Yoru, with his white hair and eyelashes, it was a perfect match.
Especially when Gojo Yoru wasn't smiling, those icy blue eyes, the habit of keeping his hands in his pockets, and his height that crushed his peers gave off a condescending, aloof feeling full of disdain.
Girls who liked this style would feel their hearts race just by meeting his gaze, their M-attributes exploding.
The more obsessed ones might even turn into ultimate simps. Even if the other party never gave them a pleasant look from childhood to adulthood, they would fall out with the best friend who saved them for this unrequited love. If the person they liked chose to defect from the village, they would abandon their parents to follow, even if it meant living a life hunted by their own village's ninjas, causing their parents to be unable to hold their heads up in the village, or even choosing suicide due to pressure—it wouldn't matter.
Even if they were scolded or nearly killed, they would choose to forgive the other party afterward.
Even if the other party chose someone else, they would silently bless them and remain unmarried for life.
Unfortunately, Gojo Yoru was born at the wrong time; this generation didn't have such outrageous simps.
Uzumaki Kushina, who had been with Gojo Yoru for several months, knew that this guy wasn't really an ice-block man, but someone even gentler than that sissy. He just had an awkward personality and was a "cool-acting guy" who liked to mock her.
See, Gojo Yoru started mocking her the next second: "If you haven't woken up yet, go to the classroom and catch up on sleep first. Otherwise, I seriously doubt if your brain was left on the pillow at home? Come talk to me like that when your Body Flicker Technique allows you to see my shadow, Tomato-na."
"Foul-mouthed Yoru, what did you say? Say it again if you have the guts!"
"If your hearing is bad, go to the hospital to see an otologist. I only specialize in treating brains. Want me to give you a punch? Guaranteed immediate effect."
"I'll give you a punch first!"
Uzumaki Kushina staged a scene of being bad at the game but loving to play, and ultimately being a sore loser, baring her teeth and rushing at Gojo Yoru.
The two walked towards the Ninja Academy while playfully fighting.
Judging from their familiar bickering and fighting, this was clearly their daily routine.
Ever since Gojo Yoru taught the Rasengan to Uzumaki Kushina, the latter had become even clingier.
Uzumaki Kushina's personality was basically a female version of Uzumaki Naruto.
Optimistic, cheerful, positive, spicy, unyielding, with strong self-esteem, daring to love and hate... these were her personality tags.
Although Uzumaki Kushina hadn't become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki yet, the method to conquer her was actually as simple as conquering Uzumaki Naruto.
Just acknowledge her and care for her, and you could immediately gain Uzumaki Kushina's affection.
Gojo Yoru did exactly that.
When the whole class mocked Uzumaki Kushina, he acted before Namikaze Minato to help, releasing his kindness and immediately gaining Uzumaki Kushina's affection.
Showing no mercy during Taijutsu sparring, then using Medical Ninjutsu to create a suspension bridge effect, caused this affection to start changing in nature.
The fatal blow of the Rasengan ignited the girl's passion.
After that day, Uzumaki Kushina came to Gojo Yoru's house every day, either receiving Rasengan guidance at his home or dragging him out for training or shopping.
This semester, she even took the initiative to come to Gojo Yoru's house, wanting to go to school with him.
In this world where children understood love and romance at five or six, Uzumaki Kushina's affection for Gojo Yoru was already displayed vividly.
Unknowingly, the golden retriever underdog who always peeked from the shadows had chosen to give up.
The NTR warrior had won another great victory!
