Uchiha Yoshiyuki

After the final battle, twenty-five-year-old Yiyong reaches the end of his life.

But when he opens his eyes again, instead of seeing his sister and friends, he sees a wooden ceiling.

A year later, Yiyong has mastered crawling and finally figures out what's happened: it seems he's skipped the underworld and gone straight to his next life.

To make sure this world doesn't have demons too, little Yiyong decides to return to his old line of work.

The good news: He's too small to wield a sword, but he can still use Water Breathing.

The bad news: It seems he's developed a Demon Slayer Mark.

He hasn't even had time to enjoy the benefits of the mark before the high fever that comes with it nearly sends him back to the underworld.

By the end, even his eyes are burning.

Just as Yiyong thinks he's really going back to the underworld this time...

Huh, the fever's gone and his eyes don't burn anymore.

They've just turned red.

Years later, the ninja world is abuzz with rumors that the Uchiha clan has produced an arrogant genius capable of creating his own sage arts.

Yiyong: I'm just breathing.

A decidedly irresponsible skit:

At a clan meeting, Madara asks, "What's our goal?"

Izuna: Defeat the Senju and rule the world!

Madara: No. World peace.

Izuna: So, defeat the Senju!

Yiyong: Isn't it to protect the living?

Izuna: So, rule the world!

Before You Dive In

1. This came from an impulsive burst of inspiration. Yiyong is the protagonist.

2. The characters will definitely be out of character, so please bear with me.

3. The title and blurb may change at any time during the preview period, but the core premise will stay the same.

4. I'll add more if I think of anything.

Theme: Our goal is world peace!
