TPMITWON Chapter 26: Starting Physical Exercise
🕑 Added 2025-03-06 12:02:49 +0000 UTCSouta realized that he needed to find an excuse, scratching his head while laughing awkwardly. "Well... you know, right? I don't have a good memory! Ha ha ha..."
Pakura continued to stare at Souta with a blank expression, then let out a short sigh and chose not to continue the conversation.
Souta could feel the slightly awkward silence. Even so, he couldn't blame the girl. His existence in this world was indeed filled with gaps that were hard to explain. There was a lot of information that Souta should have known as himself, but his memory was limited.
After a moment of walking in silence, Pakura finally spoke again. "Anyway, you should use this month to practice," Pakura said in a flat tone.
Souta was a bit surprised. Usually, Pakura only spoke when asked, but this time, she offered advice unprompted.
They arrived at the apartment building, and without much small talk, Pakura climbed the stairs and entered her room without looking back.
Souta stood there, watching Pakura disappear behind the door before finally smiling slightly. "Wow, that girl can actually be sweet too," Souta murmured quietly.
After that, Souta went up to the second floor and entered his own room. That night, the moon shone brightly in the sky, and the sound of the gentle wind could be heard from outside the window. This world was starting to feel a little more familiar to Souta.

The next morning, the sunlight streaming through the window cracks woke Souta from his sleep. He stretched a bit on his thin mattress, trying to shake off the lingering drowsiness.
After a few minutes, Souta got up and walked to the small bathroom in his apartment. The cold water touched his skin as he washed his face, providing a bit of refreshment to start the day.
After finishing, he stepped out of the apartment and stood in the small yard in front of the building. The morning air felt fresh, with a gentle breeze carrying the slightly damp scent of the earth.
Feeling the need to move his body, Souta began doing some light stretches. He stretched his arms up, rotated his shoulders, and then started with push-ups.
One... two... three...
By the time he reached ten, Souta's arms began to tremble.
"Ugh... crazy... this is harder than I thought..." Souta muttered, breathless.
Souta fell to the ground, trying to catch his breath before continuing with sit-ups. Again, only ten times before his stomach started to ache. Finally, Souta attempted squat jumps, but after ten, his legs began to feel weak.
Souta let out a long sigh and looked up at the sky. "Oh man... this body is really weak..."
In his previous life, Souta hardly ever exercised. Now, being in the Naruto world with the body of a five-year-old, he had to start everything from scratch.
However, even though Souta's body was weak, he knew one thing for sure—if he wanted to survive in this world, he had to become stronger. And that could only be achieved through consistent training.
With renewed determination, Souta slowly got up, stretching the muscles that still felt stiff.
"Today, I'm going to start taking this a bit more seriously," Souta said to himself.
The day had just begun, and a long journey to become stronger awaited Souta.
...
...
...
Souta took a deep breath, filling his lungs with the still fresh morning air. His eyes stared straight ahead, his legs began to move, and his body leaned slightly as he started running around his neighborhood.
The cold morning air hit Souta's face, bringing the distinctive scent of leaves and earth still damp with dew. The sound of birds chirping in the distance could be heard, while occasionally, Souta heard the sounds of people starting their activities in the morning.
